RISK FACTORS
The Shares of Common Stock offered hereby are speculative and involve a
high degree of risk. In addition to the other information set forth in this
Prospectus each prospective investor should carefully consider the following
risk factors before making an investment decision.
RISK OF ADULT NIGHTCLUB OPERATIONS
The adult entertainment, restaurant and bar industry is a volatile
industry. The industry tends to be sensitive to the general local economy. When
local economic conditions are prosperous, entertainment industry revenues
increase, conversely, when local economic conditions are unfavorable,
entertainment industry revenues decline. Customers who frequent adult cabarets
generally follow trends in personal preferences. The Company continuously
monitors trends in its customers' tastes and entertainment preferences by
receiving comments from customers, studying competitors, and analyzing reports
of liquor sales by beverage retailers. If necessary, it can change its
operations and services to accommodate the changes in trends. Any significant
decline in general corporate conditions or the economy that affect consumer
spending could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business and upon
an investment in the Shares.
CHANGES TO THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE
Changes to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 limiting or decreasing the
amounts of entertainment expenses allowed as deductions from income could
adversely affect sales to customers dependent upon corporate expense accounts.
An adverse effect upon the Company's sales could have an adverse affect upon an
investment in the Shares.
RISK OF INADEQUATE FINANCIAL CONTROLS
A significant part of the revenues earned by the Company through its
adult nightclub operations will be collected in cash by full and part-time
employees. Comprehensive financial controls are required to minimize the
potential loss of revenue through theft or misappropriation of cash. To the
extent that these controls are not structured or executed properly, significant
cash revenues could be lost and profitability of the Company impaired.
Inadequate financial controls by the Company could adversely effect an
investment in the Shares. The Company believes that it has implemented
significant cash controls, including separating management personnel from
actually handling cash and utilizing a combination of accounting and physical
inventory control devices to deter theft and to ensure a high level of security
within its accounting practices and procedures.
COMPETITION WITHIN THE INDUSTRY
The adult topless club entertainment business is highly competitive
with respect to price, service, location, and the professionalism of
entertainment. The Million Dollar Saloon competes in Dallas with a number of
locally-owned adult cabarets, some of whose names may enjoy recognition that
equals that of The Million Dollar Saloon. Although the Company believes that it
will compete successfully, there can be no assurance that the Company will be
able to maintain its high level of name recognition and prestige within the
marketplace.
The Company's success depends on maintaining a high quality of female
entertainers and waitresses. Competition for topless entertainers in the adult
entertainment business is intense. The lack of availability of quality,
personable, attractive entertainers or the Company's inability to attract and
retain other key employees, such as kitchen personnel and bartenders, could
adversely affect the business of the Company.
The Company's inability to compete within the industry or to maintain a
high quality of entertainment could adversely effect an investment in the
Shares.
DEPENDENCE ON AND AVAILABILITY OF MANAGEMENT
The success of the Company is dependent upon the time, talent, and
experience of Nina J. Furrh and Bjorn Heyerdahl. The loss of either's services
could have a material adverse impact on the Company and its business. If either
becomes unavailable or is temporarily disabled, the Company believes that it has
in place management systems and controls that are sufficient to enable it to
operate efficiently and effectively until their return or a replacement could be
4
found. No assurance can be given by the Company that a replacement could be
found if either is unavailable, and, then adversely effect an investment in the
Shares.
MANAGEMENT OF GROWTH
For the Company to expand its business operations, it must continue to
improve and expand the expertise of its personnel and must attract, train and
manage qualified managers and employees to oversee and manage the expanded
operations.
It is the intention of the Company to expand its existing business
operations by opening additional topless nightclubs in other metropolitan areas.
The opening of additional topless nightclubs will subject the Company to a
variety of risks associated with rapidly growing companies. In particular, the
Company's growth may place a significant strain on its accounting systems,
internal controls, and oversight of its day-to-day operations. Although
management intends to ensure that its internal controls remain adequate to meet
the demands of further growth, there can be no assurance that its systems,
controls or personnel will be sufficient to meet these demands. Inadequacies in
these areas could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
financial condition and results of operations.
PERMITS RELATING TO THE SALE OF ALCOHOL
The Company derives a significant portion of its revenues from the sale
of alcoholic beverages. In Texas, the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission
governs the authority to issue a permit to sell alcoholic beverages (the
"TABC"), which has the authority, in its discretion, to issue the appropriate
permits. The Company presently holds a Mixed Beverage Permit and a Late Hours
Permit (the "Permits"). These Permits are subject to annual renewal, provided
the Company has complied with all rules and regulations governing the permits.
Renewal of a permit is subject to protest, which a law enforcement agency may
make or by a member of the public. In case of protest, the TABC may hold a
hearing when the views of interested parties are expressed. The TABC has the
authority after such hearing not to issue a renewal of the protested alcoholic
beverage permit. While the Company has never been the subject of a protest
hearing against the renewal of its Permits, there can be no assurance that such
a protest could not be made in the future, nor can there be any assurance that
the Permits would be granted in the event such a protest was made. Other states
may have similar laws which may limit the availability of a permit to sell
alcoholic beverages or which may provide for suspension or revocation of a
permit to sell alcoholic beverages in certain circumstances. The temporary or
permanent suspension or revocations of either of the Permits or the inability to
obtain permits in areas of expansion would have a material adverse effect on the
revenues, financial condition and results of operations of the Company and upon
an investment in the Shares.
NECESSARY PERMITS
In Dallas, Texas, and in many other cities, location of a topless
cabaret is subject to restriction by city ordinance. The Company is subject to
"The Sexually Oriented Business Ordinance" (the "Ordinance") which contains
prohibitions on the location of an adult cabaret. The prohibitions deal
generally with distance from other sexually oriented businesses and from schools
and churches, and contain restrictions based on the percentage of residences
within the immediate vicinity of the sexually oriented business. The granting of
a Sexually Oriented Business Permit ("Business Permit") is not subject to
discretion; the Business Permit must be granted if the proposed operation
satisfies the requirements of the Ordinance. The Company has held a Business
Permit since passage of the city ordinance. The Business Permit, which is
transferable, is valid for one year and is renewable by application of the
permit holder. The loss of the Business Permit would have a material adverse
effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations
and upon an investment in the Shares.
UNINSURED RISKS
The Company maintains insurance in amounts it considers adequate for
personal injury and property damage to which the business of the Company may be
subject. The Company maintains personal injury liquor liability insurance. The
Company may be exposed to potential liabilities that may be imposed pursuant to
the Texas "Dram Shop" statute or similar "Dram Shop" statutes or common law
theories of liability in other states where the Company may expand. The Texas
"Dram Shop" statute provides a person injured by an intoxicated person the right
to recover damages from an establishment that wrongfully served alcoholic
beverages to such person if it were apparent to the server that the individual
5
being sold, served or provided with an alcoholic beverage was obviously
intoxicated to the extent that he presented a clear danger to himself and
others. An employer is not liable for the actions of its employee who overserves
if (i) the employer requires its employees to attend a seller training program
approved by the TABC; (ii) the employee has actually attended such a training
program; and (iii) the employer has not directly or indirectly encouraged the
employee to violate the law. It is the policy of the Company to require that all
servers of alcohol working at the Company be certified as servers under a
training program approved by the TABC, which certification gives statutory
immunity to the sellers of alcohol from damage caused to third parties by those
who have consumed alcoholic beverages at such establishment pursuant to the
Texas Alcoholic Beverage Code. There can be no assurance, however, that
uninsured liabilities may not arise which could have a material adverse effect
on the Company and upon an investment in the Shares.
CONTROL BY MANAGEMENT
Officers and Directors of the Company own approximately 48.44% of the
outstanding Common Stock of the Company. Upon completion of this offering,
management will own approximately 47.44% of the Company's outstanding stock.
Since a quorum for a shareholder meeting is represented by fifty percent of
outstanding shares entitled to vote and a majority vote of shares represented
carries a motion, management may be able to control the affairs of the Company
for the foreseeable future.
LIMITATIONS ON PROTECTION OF SERVICE MARKS
Rights of the Company to the trade name "Million Dollar Saloon" were
purchased. No assurance steps taken by the Company to protect its trade name
will be adequate to deter misappropriation of its protected intellectual
property rights. Litigation may be necessary in the future to protect the
Company's rights from infringement, which may be costly and time consuming. The
loss of the intellectual property rights owned or claimed by the Company could
have a material adverse effect on the Company and upon an investment in the
Shares.
POSSIBLE VOLATILITY OF COMMON STOCK PRICE
Following this offering, the market price of the Common Stock may be
highly volatile. There have been periods of extreme fluctuation in the stock
market that, often, are unrelated to the operating performance of, or
announcements concerning, the Company's of the affected securities. Securities
of issuers having relatively limited capitalization or securities recently
issued in a public offering are particularly susceptible to change based on
short-term trading strategies of certain investors. Accordingly, purchasers may
not be able to resell their Common Stock at or above the public offering price,
if at all, and a purchaser may not be able to liquidate his investment even at a
loss without considerable delay.
PENNY STOCK REGULATIONS
The Company's Common Stock is covered by a Securities and exchange
Commission rule that imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker
dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and
accredited investors (generally institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000
or individuals with net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding
$200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse). For transactions covered by the
rule, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the
purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction prior
to the sale. Consequently, the rule may affect the ability of broker-dealers to
sell the Company's securities and also may affect the ability of purchasers in
this offering to sell their shares in the secondary market.
SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
The Company has outstanding 5,010,084 shares of Common Stock.
The shares of Common Stock sold in this offering will be freely
tradeable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), except for any shares purchased by
an "affiliate" of the Company (in general, a person who has a control
relationship with the Company), which will be subject to limitations of Rule 144
of the Securities Act ("Rule 144"). After this offering, approximately 3,803,562
shares of Common Stock outstanding, will be deemed to be "restricted securities"
as that term is defined under Rule 144, in that such shares were issued in
private transactions not involving a public offering. In general, under Rule
144, as currently in effect, a person,
6
including an affiliate of the Company, who has beneficially owned restricted
securities which have been issued for at least two years is entitled to sell
within any three month period a number of shares that does not exceed the
greater of (i) one percent of the then outstanding shares of common stock of the
Company and (ii) the average weekly trading volume of such stock during the four
calendar weeks preceding the sale. Sales under Rule 144 are subject to certain
other requirements, including restrictions relating to the manner of sale,
required notification to the SEC and the availability of current public
information about the Company.
No prediction can be made as to the effect, if any, that sales of shares of
Common Stock or the availability of such shares for sale will have on the market
prices prevailing from time to time. Nevertheless, the possibility that
substantial amount of Common Stock may be sold in the public market would likely
have a material adverse effect on prevailing market prices for the Common Stock
and could impair the Company's ability to raise capital through the sale of its
equity securities.See "Plan of Distribution" and "Shares Eligible for Future
Sale".
ANTI-TAKEOVER EFFECTS OF ISSUANCE OF PREFERRED STOCK
The Board of Directors has the authority to issue up to 5,000,000
shares of Preferred Stock, $.01 par value per share, in one or more series, to
fix the number of shares constituting any such series, and to fix the rights and
preferences of the shares constituting any series, without any further vote or
action by the stockholders. The issuance of Preferred Stock by the Board of
Directors could adversely affect the rights of the holders of Common Stock. For
example, such issuance could result in a class of securities outstanding that
would have preferences with respect to voting rights and dividends and in
liquidation over the Common Stock, and could (upon conversion or otherwise)
enjoy all of the rights appurtenant to Common Stock. The Board's authority to
issue Preferred Stock could discourage potential takeover attempts and could
delay or prevent a change in control of the Company through merger, tender
offer, proxy contest or otherwise by making such attempts more difficult to
achieve or more costly. There are no issued and outstanding shares of Preferred
Stock; there are no agreements or understandings for the issuance of Preferred
Stock, and the Board of Directors has no present intention to issue Preferred
Stock.
LIMITATION ON DIRECTOR LIABILITY
The Company's Articles of Incorporation provide, as permitted by
governing Texas law, that a director of the Company shall not be personally
liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of
fiduciary duty as a director, with certain exceptions. These provisions may
discourage stockholders from bringing suit against a director for breach of
fiduciary duty and may reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation brought by
stockholders on behalf of the Company against a director. See "Management -
Limitation on Director's Liability; Indemnification."
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT
The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on September 28, 1987
as Goodheart Ventures, Inc. It completed an offering of its securities in
November 1988. After completion of its offering, the Company sought potential
business ventures through purchase, acquisition or merger. In 1991, it ceased
filing reports under the Exchange Act of 1934.
The Company identified entities owned and/or controlled by the Donald
G. and Nina Furrh family as candidates for merger (the "Merger"). A special
meeting of the Company's shareholders was held on September 22, 1995, pursuant
to notice. At the meeting, the shareholders approved a one-for-twelve reverse
split of the Company's outstanding common shares, the merger agreement with
Million Dollar Saloon, Inc., (MDS-TX), and amendments to the Company's Articles
of Incorporation to authorize a class of preferred stock, a change in the name
of the Company, to limit the liability of directors, and to indemnify officers
and directors under certain circumstances. The Merger was completed on October
5, 1995. Before the Merger, the Company effected the one-for-twelve reverse
split of its issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock. After the Merger,
the Company changed its name to "Million Dollar Saloon, Inc."
MDS-TX was incorporated in the State of Texas on July 1, 1985. It was
dormant until September 7, 1995. On that date, MDS-TX acquired 100% of the
issued and outstanding stock of Furrh, Inc. ("Furrh"), Texas corporation
7
incorporated February 25, 1974. Furrh owns and manages commercial rental
property located in Dallas County, Texas, and has one subsidiary. The subsidiary
is Tempo Tamers, Inc. ("Tempo"). Tempo, incorporated on July 3, 1978, operates a
lounge and entertainment facility in Dallas, Texas under the registered
trademark and trade name "Million Dollar Saloon". Simultaneously, MDS-TX
acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding stock of Corporation Lex, ("Lex")
and of Don, Inc. ("Don"). Lex, a Texas corporation, incorporated on November 30,
1984, owns and manages commercial rental property located in Dallas County,
Texas. Don, a Texas corporation, incorporated on November 8, 1973, owns and
manages commercial rental property located in Tarrant County, Texas.
As a result of the Merger, Furrh, Lex and Don have become subsidiaries
of the Company. Tempo remains a subsidiary of Furrh.
The Company filed a Form 10SB with the Securities and Exchange Commission
which became effective in January 1996 and is now filing reports under the
Exchange Act of 1934.
BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY
General
The following description will refer to the Company's business after
the Merger of MDS-TX into the Company and includes the activities of its
subsidiaries. The Company is based in Dallas and currently conducts business in
two distinct areas:
[ ] Owning and operating an adult entertainment nightclub.
[ ] Owning and managing income producing commercial real estate.
Adult Entertainment Nightclub. The Company owns and operates The Million
Dollar Saloon through Tempo. This club opened in 1982. The Million Dollar Saloon
is a trademarked and recognized name.
The Company is exploring the expansion of the gentlemen club operation
segment of its business by establishing additional Million Dollar Saloons or
acquiring additional facilities in selected cities. No specific locations have
been identified.
Income Producing Commercial Real Estate. The Company owns four income
producing commercial properties, in fee simple estate, which house gentlemen's
clubs in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. Management is of the opinion that all
properties, owned and/or leased are adequately covered by insurance. One
facility is company operated and the other three are subject to long-term lease
agreements and operated by other third-party operators.
The company operated facility is located at 6826 Greenville Avenue in
Dallas, Texas and houses the Million Dollar Saloon. The facility consists of a
9,750 square foot one and two story building located on approximate 25,500
square foot tract of land fronting a major traffic artery in North Central
Dallas. The property is owned by Furrh, a subsidiary, and is subject to a lien
covering three of the four properties incurred in connection with a $750,000
long-term note payable to a bank dated September 22, 1995.
The remaining three properties are leased to unrelated independent
operators which also operate gentlemen's clubs in the facilities. All of the
properties are stand-alone structures and, accordingly, are 100% occupied with a
single tenant and, at the present time, are not subject to any plans for
renovation, remodeling or other significant improvement. All properties are
physically located in geographic areas suitable for their current use. There
exist similar properties which could be similarly used in the same geographic
area as the subject properties. The effective rentals vary between locations
because of desirability and attractiveness of locations.
Female Entertainment. The topless entertainers and waitresses at The
Million Dollar Saloon must follow management's policy of high personal
appearance and personality standards. A performer's physical appearance and her
ability to present herself attractively and to converse intelligently with
customers is very important to management. Management insists that the
performers at The Million Dollar Saloon be experienced dancers. The performers
dance on the main stage or on small stages throughout the club. While their
performances include topless dancing, management insists that performers wear
elegant attire when not dancing, as opposed to being scantily dressed as in many
other adult cabarets. Management never allows full nudity in the club.
Management provides performers with guidelines for the manner of dress,
hairstyle, makeup and general demeanor. Guidelines are imposed to maintain a
high standard of
8
professionalism among the performers and to ensure that they always maintain a
pleasant, congenial demeanor. Further, management evaluates each performer's
appearance and performance on a nightly basis and advises performers if their
dress, makeup, hairstyle, general appearance or demeanor do not meet the
standards of the Company. Though these policies have the effect of limiting the
number of performers who are permitted to dance or serve as waitresses at The
Million Dollar Saloon, the Company believes that its policy of maintaining these
high standards is in its best interest of long-term market position.
Entertainers who have performed at The Million Dollar Saloon have been featured
in various leading men's entertainment magazines.
Food and Drink. The Company believes a key to the success of a premier
adult nightclub is a quality, first-class bar and restaurant operation to
complement its adult entertainment. The Company employs a full-time Service
Manager who is in charge of recruiting and training a professional waitress
staff and ensuring that each customer receives prompt and courteous service. The
Company employs a Chef and a Bar Manager, who is in charge of ordering,
inventory, and scheduling of bar staff. The Company believes that the operation
of a first class restaurant and the provision of premium wine, liquor and beer
are necessary to the operation of a premier adult cabaret. The Company's
restaurant operation is a full service operation which provides business lunch
buffets and a full-scale lunch and dinner menu service offering hot and cold
appetizers, salads, seafood, steak and other entrees. A variety of premier wines
are offered to compliment any customer's lunch or dinner selection.
Controls. Operational and accounting controls are essential to the
successful operation of a cash intensive nightclub and bar business. The Company
separates management personnel from all cash handling. The Company uses a
combination of accounting and physical inventory control mechanisms to ensure a
high level of integrity in its accounting practices. Computers play a
significant role in capturing and analyzing a variety of information to provide
management with the information necessary to efficiently manage and control the
nightclub. Management personnel reconciles deposits of cash and credit card
receipts each day to a daily income report. Daily computer reports alert
management of any variances from expected financial results based on historical
norms.
Atmosphere. The Company maintains a high standard for atmosphere in its
facility and in its decor at The Million Dollar Saloon. The furniture and
furnishings in the club area create the feeling of an upscale restaurant. The
sound system design provides quality sound at levels so conversations can take
place. The Company also provides a companion light show and employs a sound and
light engineer to upgrade, monitor, and maintain the sound and light systems at
The Million Dollar Saloon. Management constantly monitors the environment of The
Million Dollar Saloon for maintenance, music selection, entertainer and waitress
appearance, and all aspects of customer service.
VIP Area. To emphasize service for the upper-end of the business
market, the Company maintains a "VIP" area encompassing the upstairs area of The
Million Dollar Saloon facility. The VIP area opened in 1982 to individuals who
pay an increased daily admission charge or purchase annual or lifetime admission
passes. The VIP area provides a higher level of luxury in its decor and more
personalized services. Current admission pass fees are $500.00 annually and
$1,000.00 for a lifetime. The VIP area consists of approximately 1,800 square
feet for food and entertainment purposes and has an occupancy limit of 100
persons. The downstairs club and dining area consists of approximately 4,500
square feet for entertainment purposes and can accommodate 250 persons. The
Company estimates that there are less than 100 active VIP members who have
purchased annual or lifetime admission passes.
Advertising and Promotion. The Company's marketing philosophy is to
portray The Million Dollar Saloon as a premiere cabaret and providing topless
entertainment in a fun, discreet environment for its customers. Hotel
publications, local radio, cable television, newspapers, billboards, and a
variety of promotional campaigns ensure that the public recognizes The Million
Dollar Saloon name. The Company is a member of local business organizations and
accepted by the Dallas Convention & Visitor's Bureau.
Future Expansion. The Company has not determined the precise locations
or nature of its future expansion, but it believes, based upon its experience,
that opportunities for expansion exist. It is researching the gaming industry
and theatrical production as areas for expansion. It may expand by acquisition
of facilities including sports bars and casual clubs that would not use the
trademark "The Million Dollar Saloon." In determining which cities will be prime
locations, a variety of factors will be considered. The current regulatory
environment will be one such factor. The city must presently permit sale of
alcoholic beverages in a topless cabaret and table dancing. Another factor that
will be considered is the availability of sites. The city must have several
available sites located in high traffic commercial areas suitable for
9
conversion to The Million Dollar Saloon style cabarets or sports bars or casual
clubs. The Company also will review potential competition in the area and will
analyze the current market conditions and profitability of other adult cabarets
in the city. The existing business climate will be of critical importance.
Competition. The adult topless club entertainment business is highly
competitive with respect to price, service, location, and the professionalism of
its entertainment. The Million Dollar Saloon competes with many locally-owned
adult cabarets in Dallas, some of whose names may enjoy recognition that equals
that of the Million Dollar Saloon. While there may be local governmental
restrictions on the location of a so-called "sexually oriented business", there
are no barriers to entry into the adult cabaret entertainment market. There are
in excess of 30 adult cabarets located in the Dallas area of which two are in
direct competition with the Company. The Company believes that the combination
of its existing name recognition and its distinctive and unique entertainment
environment will allow the Company to effectively compete within the industry.
Governmental Regulations. The Company is subject to various federal,
state and local laws affecting its business activities. In Texas, the authority
to issue a permit to sell alcoholic beverages is governed by the Texas Alcoholic
Beverage Commission ( "TABC"). The TABC has the authority, in its discretion, to
issue appropriate permits. The Company presently holds a Mixed Beverage Permit
and a Late Hours Permit (the "Permits"). These Permits are subject to annual
renewal, provided the Company has complied with all rules and regulations
governing the permits. Renewal of a permit is subject to protest by a law
enforcement agency or by a member of the public. In case of protest, the TABC
may hold a hearing for interested parties to express their views. The TABC has
the authority after such hearing not to issue a renewal of the protested
alcoholic beverage permit. The Company has never been the subject of a protest
hearing against the renewal of its Permits. Other states may have similar laws
that may limit the availability of a permit to sell alcoholic beverages or which
may provide for suspension or revocation of a permit to sell alcoholic beverages
in certain circumstances. Prior to expanding into any new market, the Company
will take all steps necessary to ensure compliance with all licensing and
regulatory requirements. The Company has not lost or been denied a permit by the
TABC.
Various groups have increasingly advocated certain restrictions on
"happy hour" and other promotions involving alcoholic beverages. The Company
feels its entertainment value, admittance charge beginning after normal "happy
hours" and its policies of not discounting drink prices are effective tools in
promoting its business. The Company cannot predict whether additional
restrictions on the promotion of sales of alcoholic beverages will be adopted,
or if adopted, the effect of such restrictions on its business.
Beyond various regulatory requirements affecting the sale of alcoholic
beverages, location of a topless cabaret is subject to restriction by city
ordinance. The Company is subject to "The Sexually Oriented Business Ordinance"
(the "Ordinance") which contains prohibitions on the location of an adult
cabaret. The prohibitions deal generally with distance from schools, churches,
and other sexually oriented businesses and contain restrictions based on the
percentage of residences within the immediate vicinity of the sexually oriented
business. The granting of a Sexually Oriented Business Permit ("Business
Permit") is not subject to discretion; the Business Permit must be granted if
the proposed operation satisfies the requirements of the Ordinance. The Company
has held a Business Permit since passage of the city ordinance. The Business
Permit is valid for a period of one year and is renewable by application of the
permit holder subject to a hearing. The Company has received positive support at
such hearings from business associations, nearby businesses, and residential
neighbors. The Company has not lost or been denied a Business Permit.
Trademarks. "Million Dollar Saloon" is a trademarked and recognized
name. The name was acquired by purchase before opening the Million Dollar
Saloon. The Company is aware of a possible infringement upon the trademark by a
facility in Oklahoma and is considering remedial action if warranted. The
possible infringement has not and is not expected to materially affect
operations of the Company.
Employees and Independent Contractors. As of December 31, 1995, the Company
had approximately 70 full-time employees, of which 12 are in management
positions, including corporate and administrative operations and approximately
58 are engaged in food and beverage service, including bartenders and
waitresses. Entertainers number approximately 130full time and part time. None
of the Company's employees are represented by a union and the Company considers
its employee relations to be good.
In contrast to prevailing industry treatment of entertainers as independent
contractors, the Company classifies its
10
entertainers as employees for both federal income tax purposes and compliance
with the Fair Labor Standards Act. By classifying its entertainers as employees
subject to the income tax withholding provisions of the Internal Revenue Code
and under the Federal Insurance Contributions Act and the Federal Unemployment
Tax Act, the Company avoids the imposition of penalties for failure to comply
with such requirements.
Insurance. The Company maintains insurance in amounts it considers
adequate for personal injury and property damage. The Company does maintain
personal injury liquor liability insurance because the Company may be exposed to
potential liabilities that may be imposed pursuant to the Texas "Dram Shop"
statute or similar "Dram Shop" statutes or common law theories of liability in
other states where the Company may expand. The Texas "Dram Shop" statute
provides a person injured by an intoxicated person the right to recover damages
from an establishment that wrongfully served alcoholic beverages to such person
if it was apparent to the server that the individual being sold, served or
provided with an alcoholic beverage was obviously intoxicated to the extent that
he presented a clear danger to himself and others. An employer is not liable for
the actions of its employee who wrongfully serves an individual if (i) the
employer requires its employees to attend a seller training program approved by
the TABC; (ii) the employee has actually attended such a training program; and
(iii) the employer has not directly or indirectly encouraged the employee to
violate the law. It is the policy of the Company to require that all servers of
alcohol, including management, be certified every two years as servers under a
training program approved by the TABC. Certification gives statutory immunity to
the sellers of alcohol from damage caused to third parties by those who have
consumed alcoholic beverages at such establishment pursuant to the Texas
Alcoholic Beverage Code.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying
financial statements and notes thereto, beginning on page F-1, elsewhere herein.
Further, all discussions relate to the continuing operations of Furrh, Inc.,
Corporation Lex and Don, Inc. as wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
Nine Months Ended September 30, 1996 versus September 30, 1995
Bar and restaurant revenues increased by approximately $193,000 for the quarter
ended September 30, 1996 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 1995 and
approximately $658,000 for the comparative nine month periods ended September
30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. These increases relate to higher patronage of
the facility and to the changes in entertainer compensation methods. During
1995, the Company and its competitors changed their method of entertainer
compensation. As a result of this change, the Company experienced increased
entertainment revenues which were partially offset by related increases in
direct labor costs. Costs of sales increased by approximately $66,000 in the
third quarter of 1996 compared to the same period in 1995 and an aggregate
$398,000 for the comparable nine month periods of 1996 and 1995. Rental revenues
on leased real estate were declined in the third quarter of 1996 as compared to
the third quarter of 1995 due to the bankruptcy of a tenant of a rental
property. Management is evaluating various options available to either replace
the tenant or sell the property. As of September 30, 1996, no definitive plans
have been formulated by management. Cumulative rental revenues have decreased by
approximately $36,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 as compared
to the same six months ended June 30, 1995. The cumulative decrease in lease
revenues is principally due to the reasons discussed previously.
Operating expenses declined by approximately $174,000 in the third quarter of
1996 as compared to the same quarter of 1995. These expenses have experienced
cumulative decreases of approximately $305,000 for the first nine months of 1996
as compared to the same period in 1995. The principal savings were experienced
in reduced management fees paid in 1995 which were discontinued in September
1995 as a result of the reverse merger and corporate restructuring transaction.
The Company has experienced expense increases in interest expense due to new
notes taken out in the second quarter of 1996 and the September 1995 corporate
restructuring. Further, the Company has increased depreciation and amortization
expenses as a result of the amortization of costs incurred for the reverse
merger and corporate restructuring in September 1995. All direct rental
operating costs remained constant during the nine month period ended September
30, 1996 and 1995 included as a component of general and administrative
expenses.
Net income increased by approximately $132,000 from approximately $31,000 for
the quarter ended September 30, 1995 to approximately $163,000 for the quarter
ended September 30, 1996. Year to date net income has increased from
approximately $164,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 to
approximately $391,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996. The
weighted-average number of shares of the Company's common stock has remained
relatively constant yielding a comparable earnings per share of $0.08 for the
nine months ended September 30, 1996 as compared to $0.03 per share for the nine
months ended September 30, 1995.
11
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995 VERSUS DECEMBER 31, 1994
- -----------------------------------------------------
The Company derives revenues from two principal sources - bar and restaurant
operations and rents from leases on real property. The Company experienced an
approximate $263,000 increase in gross bar and restaurant revenues to a total of
approximately $2,751,000 during the year December 31, 1995 from approximately
$2,488,000 during the year ended December 31, 1994. This increase is
attributable to increased patronage from local traffic and conventions in the
Dallas-Ft. Worth Metroplex. The Company's real estate rental operations
experienced a revenue decrease of approximately $2,300 from approximately
$478,500 for the year ended December 31, 1994 to approximately $476,200 for the
year ended December 31, 1995. This decrease was caused by financial difficulties
of one tenant. The Company has been able to replace this tenant at identical
lease terms and conditions. The overall net total revenues of the Company
increased slightly from approximately $1,573,000 for the year ended December 31,
1994 to approximately $1,676,000 for the year ended December 31, 1995.
Net bar and restaurant direct operating costs have increased with direct
personnel costs at approximately $1,048,000 versus $878,000 and purchases of
various consumables and supplies at approximately $502,000 versus $515,000 for
the year ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. During 1995 the Company
changed its method of compensating dancers from a "tip-based" reporting method
to a method whereby dancers are paid a percentage of all reported service
charges collected for individual dances. Under this change in compensation
methodology, the Company will experience increased revenues, which will be
offset by related increases in entertainer compensation. Because of this change,
the Company settles with each entertainer at the end of each daily shift and
advances to the employee the pro-rata estimated net compensation. All advances
are reconciled and cleared during the Company's normal bi-weekly payroll cycle.
At December 31, 1995, the Company experienced an increase of approximately
$46,600 in accounts receivable as a result of these advances.
Overall operating expenses increased from approximately $1,427,700 for the year
ended December 31, 1994 to approximately $1,569,900 for the year ended December
31, 1995. The largest contributors to this increase of approximately $129,000
was an increase in management fees paid to a related party of approximately
$100,000 prior to the merger of the Company and the operating subsidiaries and
an increase in employer payroll taxes related to the change in entertainer
compensation methods. Management fees paid to a related party ceased effective
October 1, 1995 with the merger of the Company and the operating subsidiaries.
Additionally, the reorganization of Furrh, Inc. and its subsidiary, Tempo
Tamers, Inc., Corporation Lex and Don, Inc. with and into MDS-TX and the
subsequent merger with the Company provided a structure whereby the cumulative
net operating loss of Furrh, Inc., as of February 28, 1995, in the amount of
approximately $400,000 became usable beyond a reasonable doubt. As a separate
entity, there was no assurance beyond a reasonable doubt that the net operating
loss carry forward would be utilizable by Furrh, Inc. and its subsidiary, and,
accordingly, the deferred tax asset related to this net operating loss carry
forward was fully reserved. Accordingly upon the consummation of the merger, the
Company retroactively recognized a deferred tax asset, of approximately $76,000
as of December 31, 1995 to reflect the economic effect of the future utilization
of this loss carry forward for income tax purposes.
As a general rule, the bar and restaurant operations experience limited
seasonality during the summer months of June, July and August due to the lack of
convention activity in Dallas, Texas and the availability of other recreational
and vacation activity by the patronage. No significant financial impact on the
operations is caused by this repetitive seasonal decline.
During 1995, the Company advanced an additional approximate $17,500 to officers,
directors and/or shareholders, pre- reverse merger between the operating
companies and Goodheart. No advances are anticipated to be made by the Company
12
in future periods. In September 1995, the two largest balances due from
shareholders were converted to separate formalized notes bearing interest 5.65%
and mature in September 1997. The notes may be repaid with either cash or the
Company's common stock held by the respective shareholder at an agreed-upon
value of $2.00 per share. Both shareholders have adequate share holdings to
completely retire the debt, plus anticipated accrued interest, at the scheduled
maturity date. It is the intent of these shareholders to liquidate the notes
with cash repayments.
YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994 VERSUS DECEMBER 31, 1993
- ------------------------------------------------------
For the year ended December 31, 1994 as compared to the years ended December 31,
1993 and 1992, respectively, revenues from bar and restaurant operations
increased to approximately $2.49 million from approximately $2.47 million and
approximately $2.38 million, respectively. This increase was driven by a
mid-1993 minimal increase in bar prices, increased convention traffic in the
Dallas area, focusing on improving relationships with taxicab and limousine
services used by visitors to the city and an improvement in operational
management focusing on business promotion and marketing. The overall patronage
of the facility is dependent upon the traffic flow in the facility's
geographical area, continued repeat local customers and continued visitation by
conventioneers and other visitors and the facility's overall reputation as a
"destination of choice". Cost of sales related to bar and restaurant sales was
approximately $1.39 million, $1.50 million and $1.39 million, respectively, for
the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992. These costs are controlled
primarily through management monitoring of food and beverage costs and
non-entertainer staffing levels. In order to maintain the appropriate customer
service levels, the daily staffing of entertainers is keyed to the appropriate
day of the week, anticipated customer levels and availability of qualified
entertainers. These attributes are also integral components of the revenue
stream in order to maintain repeat customers and to encourage "word-of-mouth"
advertising to generate additional customer traffic.
Revenues from real estate rentals were approximately $478,000 in 1994 compared
to approximately $467,000 in 1993 and approximately $395,296 in 1992. All leases
are subject to scheduled base rent increases, as defined in each respective
lease agreement, and the payment by the lessor of all related ad valorem taxes
as a component of the rental income amount. All properties are under long-term
lease agreements.
Operating expenses have experienced cumulative improvements in expenditures from
approximately $1.58 million for Calendar 1992 to approximately $1.49 million in
Calendar 1993 to approximately $1.42 million in Calendar 1994. The largest cost
savings have occurred in the areas of taxes and interest related to the rental
real estate. The Company has constantly strived and succeeded in protesting the
valuations placed on its rental real estate and anticipates that these
expenditures should remain stable or decline further based on the protest
efforts. Management has made the monitoring of non-labor related cost items a
target of constant monitoring for additional cost savings in the future.
Interest income is principally related to advances receivable from related
parties to the Company. All advances receivable outstanding through September 7,
1995 were due upon demand and bore interest at the statutory interest rate set
by the Internal Revenue Service for related party loans. Due to the life of the
respective receivables and absence of a formalized repayment program, these
amounts are classified as non-current.
On January 1, 1994, Furrh, Inc., Corporation Lex and Don, Inc., collectively
declared aggregate dividends of approximately $365,225 which was paid via an
offset against the cash advances to various officers, shareholders and
affiliates. Additionally, on January 1, 1995, certain officers and shareholders
agreed, with the permission of the creditor, to assume a trade account payable
in the amount of approximately $400,000. This assumption was accounted for as an
offset between the trade accounts payable account and the advances due from
officers, shareholders and affiliates account. The effect of these two
transactions lowered the balances eligible for interest income computations and,
accordingly, was directly responsible for the decline in interest income between
the year ended December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively.
As a general rule, the bar and restaurant operations experience limited
seasonality during the summer months of June, July and August due to the lack of
convention activity in Dallas, Texas and the availability of other recreational
and vacation activity by the patronage. No significant financial impact on the
operations is caused by this repetitive seasonal decline.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------
NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 VERSUS SEPTEMBER 30, 1995
- --------------------------------------------------------------
As of September 30, 1996, the Company had working capital of approximately
$112,000 as compared to approximately $(32,300) as of December 31, 1995 and
$80,000 at September 30, 1995. The Company has achieved positive cash flows from
operations of approximately $511,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
1996 as compared to approximately $167,000 for the year ended December 31, 1995
and approximately $38,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1995.
During April 1996, the Company executed a $500,000 note payable to a bank and
placed the proceeds into certificates of deposit as an additional working
capital reserve. The note is due in October 1996 and requires monthly payments
of interest only at an interest rate of 6.50%.
Management believes that working capital is not a true indicator of liquidity
due to the cash nature of the bar and restaurant operations whereby all direct
operating revenues and expenses are settled within five (5) working days after
recognition. The positive cash flows from operations has primarily been used, in
prior periods, for the retirement of debt and distributions to shareholders.
Acquisitions of property and equipment have been nominal during the nine months
ended September 30, 1996 and totaled approximately $82,000 for Calendar 1995 and
$11,000 for Calendar 1994. It is anticipated that no significant future demands
for capital resources exist and only routine repairs and maintenance on the
company-operated facility will be necessary. During Calendar 1995, the majority
of capital expenditures directly related to the exterior and interior remodeling
to modernize and update the overall appearance and atmosphere of the facility to
maintain its quality and reputation within the marketplace. Due to major freeway
construction in the vicinity of the facility, management anticipates that the
remodeled facade will attract additional spontaneous patronage from increases in
traffic caused by freeway diversions. Liquidity requirements mandated by future
business acquisitions or expansions, if any are specifically identified or
undertaken, are not readily determinable at this time as no substantive plans
have been formulated by management. However, management believes that all
necessary cash liquidity will be obtained from existing operations.
Additionally, management is of the opinion that there is additional potential
availability of incremental mortgage debt and the opportunity for the sale of
additional common stock through either private placements or secondary
offerings.
As of December 31, 1995, the Company had negative working capital of
approximately ($32,300) as of December 31, 1995 as compared to ($292,000) as of
December 31, 1994 and approximately ( $858,000) as of December 31, 1993. The
Company has achieved positive cash flows from operations of approximately
$167,000 for year ended December 31, 1995, approximately $215,000 for the year
ended December 31, 1994 and approximately $145,000 for the year ended December
31, 1993.
On September 7, 1995, concurrent with the corporate consolidation previously
discussed, MDS-TX sold approximately 124,900 shares of unregistered, restricted
common stock (at $2.00 per share) to unrelated third-party investors raising
$249,800.
On September 22, 1995, MDS-TX obtained a new $750,000 long-term note payable to
a bank in Dallas, Texas. The note bears interest at 11.0% and is payable in 60
equal installments of approximately $16,369, including interest. The final
payment is due in September 2000. The note may be prepaid at any time and any
prepayment must be accompanied by a "yield maintenance fee" equal to 4% of the
outstanding balance if prepaid prior to August 31, 1996; 3% if prepaid between
September 1, 1996 and August 31, 1997; 2% if prepaid between September 1, 1997
and August 31, 1998; and 1% if prepaid between September 1, 1997 and August 31,
1999. The proceeds of the loan were used to retire the $712,000 mortgage note
payable, maturing in December 1995, with a payoff balance of approximately
$288,000 and the $105,000 mortgage note payable, maturing in July 1996, with a
payoff balance of approximately $10,000.
On September 22, 1995, MDS-TX and the Estate of Donald G. Furrh (a majority
shareholder of all involved corporations, pre and post reorganization) exchanged
approximately 325,000 of MDS-TX common stock held by the Estate for MDS- TX's
assumption of $650,000 in debts of the Estate (principally inheritance taxes and
related professional fees). Funds available from the new $750,000 note payable
and the proceeds of the stock sales on September 7, 1995 were used to
immediately retire the assumed debt.
Management believes that working capital is not a true indicator of liquidity
due to the cash nature of the bar and restaurant operations whereby all direct
operating revenues and expenses are settled within five (5) working days after
recognition. The positive cash flows from operations has primarily been used, in
prior periods, for the retirement of debt and
14
distributions to shareholders. Acquisitions of property and equipment has been
nominal during the preceding two Calendar years; approximately $11,000 for
Calendar 1994 and approximately $25,000 for Calendar 1993. It is anticipated
that future demands for capital resources will increase due to routine repairs
and maintenance on the company-operated facility and the exterior and interior
remodeling to modernize and update the overall appearance and atmosphere of the
facility to maintain its quality and reputation within the marketplace. These
repairs and remodeling costs required approximately $82,000 in Calendar 1995.
Due to major freeway construction in the vicinity of the facility, management
anticipates that a remodeled facade will attract additional spontaneous
patronage from increases in traffic caused by freeway diversions. Liquidity
requirements mandated by future business acquisitions or expansions, if any are
specifically identified or undertaken, are not readily determinable at this time
as no substantive plans have been formulated by management. However, management
believes that all necessary cash liquidity will be obtained from existing
operations. Additionally, management is of the opinion that there is additional
potential availability of incremental mortgage debt and the opportunity for the
sale of additional common stock through either private placements or secondary
offerings.
Because of the large volume of cash handled by the bar and restaurant facility
personnel, stringent cash controls have been implemented by the Company. These
procedures have continually evolved since the facility opened in 1982 to take
advantage of improving technologies. Management believes that it will be able to
duplicate the financial controls that exist at the existing facility into future
locations, and that these controls will provide sufficient safeguards to protect
the interests of the Company.
The Company treats and has consistently treated all entertainers as employees
whereas other similar facilities may or may have treated their entertainers as
independent contractors. One of the Company's competitors has been the subject
of litigation related to this issue and has had judgments entered against it by
the U. S. Department of Labor. Management believes that as a result of its
initial and continuing policies and procedures, there is an insignificant risk
to both future operations and profitability for any potential assessment of
payroll and related taxes in the future by regulatory authorities which would
have potentially a very significant financial and operational impact if the
Company treated all entertainers as independent contractors.
DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
The Company maintains its corporate offices at 6848 Greenville Avenue in Dallas,
Texas. The offices contain approximately 2,700 square feet and the monthly rent
is approximately $3,500 per month. The lease expires in October 1997. Based on
current local market conditions and available information, management is of the
belief that it will either be able to renew the existing lease upon expiration
or relocate to a comparable location at a comparable cost.
The Company owns four facilities, in fee simple estate, which operate as
gentlemen's clubs in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. Management is of the
opinion that all properties, owned and/or leased are adequately covered by
insurance. One facility is company operated and the other three are subject to
long-term lease agreements and operated by other unrelated third-party
operators.
The company operated facility is located at 6826 Greenville Avenue in Dallas,
Texas. The facility consists of a 9,750 square foot one and two story building
located on approximate 25,500 square foot tract of land fronting a major traffic
artery in North Central Dallas. The property is subject to a lien covering three
of the four properties incurred in connection with a $750,000 long-term note
payable to a bank dated September 22, 1995.
The remaining three properties are leased to unrelated independent operators
which also operate gentlemen's clubs in the facilities. All of the properties
are stand-alone structures and, accordingly, are 100% occupied with a single
tenant and, at the present time, are not subject to any plans for renovation,
remodeling or other significant improvement. All properties are physically
located in geographic areas suitable for their current use. There exist similar
properties which could be similarly used in the same geographic area as the
subject properties. The lease rental amounts are based upon the location and
physical condition of the respective property. The Harry Hines property lessee
experienced financial difficulties during the first nine months of 1995 and has
been replaced with a new lessee under the same lease terms and conditions.
A summary of the terms, conditions and operating parameters of the three leased
properties being operated by third parties as gentlemen's clubs follows:

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
On August 23, 1995, Bjorn Heyerdahl, before he became chief executive
officer and a director of the Company, acquired 12,000,000 shares of the
Company's restricted common stock from shareholders of the Company for a
consideration of $22,166.50. After the reverse split, he surrendered 500,000
shares to the Company as a result of the merger negotiations and his
negotiations to become chief executive officer, the surrender was necessary to
balance ownership between the existing pre-merger shareholders of the Company
and the shareholders of MDS-TX.
On September 7, 1995, MDS-TX exchanged 3,925,000 shares of unregistered,
restricted common stock for 100% of the issued and outstanding stock of Furrh
and its subsidiary Tempo, Lex and Don. All entities involved in the exchange
shared common ownership, control, and management. The purpose of this
transaction was to consolidate ownership of the entities prior to the Merger
with the Company.
On September 7, 1995, MDS-TX sold 124,900 shares of unregistered,
restricted common stock to outside third parties for an aggregate $249,800. The
purpose of this transaction was to provide working capital prior to the Merger
with the Company. On October 5, 1995, MDS-TX was merged into the Company.
The parties relied on Section 4(2) of the Securities Act in that such
transactions did not involve a public offering and were thus exempt from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act. No underwriters were used in
connection with the foregoing transactions.
Furrh and its subsidiary, Tempo, Lex and Don collectively paid Furrh
Limited Partnership, an entity related by ownership and management, management
fees of approximately $365,000 and $228,000 for the years ended December 31,
1995 and 1994, respectively. Management fees ceased October 1, 1995 upon
consummation of the Merger.

<FN>
<F1>These Selling Shareholders have agreed to limit their sales of Shares to 1/6
of the Shares offered by the respective Selling Shareholder during each 30-day
period after the effective date of this Prospectus, this limitation shall
terminate six months after the effective date of this Prospectus.
If during any 30-day period the Selling Shareholders are unable to receive a
market price of at least $3.00 per share for the Shares they own, then in such
event the Company shall issue to each of the Selling Shareholders such number of
additional Shares (the "Additional Shares") of the Company's Common Stock in
order for the value of the Shares owned by the Selling Shareholders, that they
attempted to sell during the 30-day period to be equal to $3.00 per share. If
there is no market or if the market for such Common Stock is less than $3.00 per
share and Selling Shareholders elect to sell their Shares within six months from
the effective date of this Prospectus, then the amount of Additional Shares the
Company is obligated to issue is limited only by the remaining authorized but
unissued shares of Common Stock .
If at any time during any such 30-day period the closing market price of the
Company's Common Stock equals or exceeds $3.00 per share for five consecutive
trading days each of the Selling Shareholders did not elect to sell any or all
of its Shares subject to being sold during such period, then in such event, the
obligation of the Company to issue Additional Shares shall terminate as to those
Shares.
The price per share of the Additional Shares and the Shares owned by each of the
Selling Shareholders shall be valued, as applicable, at the closing bid price
per share of the Company's Common Stock as quoted in any market at the close of
business on the 30th day of each 30-day period (or the next business day if the
30th day is Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday) for six months after the
effective date of this Prospectus. The obligation of the Company to issue
Additional Shares is not cumulative and the Company is not required and does not
intend to register such additional shares if issued. The obligation of the
Company to issue Additional Shares shall terminate six (6) months after the
effective date of the Prospectus.
</FN>
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The sale of the Shares by the Selling Shareholders may be effected from time to
time in transactions (which may include block transactions) in the
over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions at fixed prices which may be
changed, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to
such prevailing market prices, or at negotiated prices. The Selling Shareholders
may effect such transactions by selling Shares to or through broker-dealers, and
such broker-dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts,
concessions or commissions from the Selling Shareholders and/or the purchasers
of the Shares for whom such broker-dealers may act as agent or to whom they sell
as principal, or both. The Selling Shareholders and any broker-dealers that act
in connection with the sale of the Shares hereunder might be deemed to be
"underwriters" within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act of 1933
and any commissions received by them and any profit on the resale of Shares as
principal might be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the
Securities Act of 1933.
The Company shall indemnify the Selling Shareholders and each underwriter for
the Selling Shareholders and each person, if any, who controls the underwriter
for the Selling Shareholders and each person, if any, who controls the
underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, from any loss,
claim, damage or liability arising out of or based upon any untrue statements of
a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any omissions to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein not misleading, except for such statement or omission
based upon information furnished in writing by the Selling Shareholders shall
indemnify the Company and each
22
of its respective officers and directors who has signed such Registration
Statement, each director and each person, if any, who controls the Company
within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 against any loss, claim, damage
or liability arising from any such statement or omission which was made in
reliance upon information furnished in writing to the Company by the Selling
Shareholders expressly for use in the Registration Statement.
DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
GENERAL
The Company's Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of
50,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $.001 par value per share and 5,000,000
shares of preferred stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Preferred Stock").
COMMON STOCK
Each outstanding share of Common Stock is fully paid and non-assessable,
and the holders thereof are entitled to one vote per share at all meetings of
stockholders. All shares of Common Stock are equal to each other with regard to
liquidation rights and dividend rights. The Articles of Incorporation of the
Company deny preemptive rights to purchase any additional shares of Common Stock
and do not provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors. In the
event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, holders of the
Common Stock will be entitled to receive on a pro rata basis all the assets of
the Company remaining after satisfaction of all liabilities, subject to the
rights of holders of any Preferred Stock.
The present intent of the Company is to retain earnings sufficient to
provide for the operation and expansion of its business. The Company declared
dividends of $0.03 per share in the first quarter and $0.015 per share in the
second quarter of 1996 and anticipates the payment of cash dividends in the
foreseeable future. In addition, certain covenants in the Company's existing or
future credit agreements may contractually limit cash amounts available for
dividends on the Common Stock.
PREFERRED STOCK
The Articles of Incorporation provide that Preferred Stock may be issued in
one or more series as may be determined from time to time by the Board of
Directors. All shares of any one series of Preferred Stock will be identical
except as to the date of issue and dates from which dividends on shares of the
series issued on different dates will cumulate, if cumulative. The Articles of
Incorporation grant the Board of Directors the power to authorize the issuance
of one or more series of Preferred Stock, and to fix by resolution or
resolutions providing for the issue of each such series the voting powers (but
no greater than one vote per share), designations, preferences, and relative,
participating, optional, redemption, conversion, exchange or other special
rights, qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such series, and the
number of shares in each series, to the full extent now or hereafter permitted
by law.
It is not contemplated that any shares of Preferred Stock will be issued by
the Company in the foreseeable future, and the Company was organized with this
class of securities authorized to provide flexibility for financing of Company
activities in the future. Since no Preferred Stock has been issued, and the
issuance of the same is not contemplated, it is not possible to know whether
such Preferred Stock, if ever issued, would have preference over the Common
Stock shareholders in the distribution of any assets in the event of a
liquidation.
ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS
The Company's Articles of Incorporation and the Nevada General Corporation
Law (the "NGCL") contain certain provisions that may make the acquisition of
control of the Company by means of a tender offer, open market purchase, proxy
fight or otherwise more difficult.
23
Business Combinations
The NGCL contains provisions restricting the ability of a corporation to
engage in business combinations with an interested stockholder. In general,
except under certain circumstances, business combinations with interested
stockholders are not permitted for a period of five years following the date
such stockholder became an interested stockholder. The NGCL defines an
interested stockholder, generally, as a person who owns 10% or more of the
outstanding shares of the corporation's voting stock.
In addition, the NGCL generally disallows the exercise of voting rights
with respect to "control shares" of an "issuing corporation" held by an
"acquiring person," unless such voting rights are conferred by a majority vote
of the disinterested stockholders. "Control shares" are the voting shares of an
issuing corporation acquired in connection with the acquisition of a
"controlling interest." "Controlling interest" is defined in terms of threshold
levels of voting share ownership, which thresholds, whenever each may be
crossed, trigger application of the voting bar with respect to the shares newly
acquired. The NGCL also permits directors to resist a change or potential change
in control of the corporation if the directors determine that the change or
potential change is opposed to or not in the best interest of the corporation.
Authorized and Unissued Preferred Stock
The Company has 5,000,000 authorized and not issued shares of Preferred
Stock. The existence of authorized and unissued Preferred Stock may enable the
Board of Directors to render more difficult or to discourage an attempt to
obtain control of the Company by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest
or otherwise. For example, if in the due exercise of its fiduciary obligations,
the Board of Directors were to determine that a takeover proposal is not in the
Company's best interests, the Board of Directors could cause shares of Preferred
Stock to be issued without stockholder approval in one or more private offerings
or other transactions that might dilute the voting or other rights of the
proposed acquirer or insurgent stockholder or stockholder group or create a
substantial voting block in institutional or other hands that might undertake to
support the position of the incumbent Board of Directors. In this regard, the
Articles of Incorporation grant the Board of Directors broad power to establish
the designations, powers, preferences and rights of each series of Preferred
Stock. See " -- Preferred Stock."
INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
The Company's Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that the Company
will indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent provided by
Nevada law. In addition, the Articles of Incorporation contain a provision
limiting a director's and officer's liability for monetary damages to the
fullest extent permitted by Nevada law.
Furthermore, Section 78.751 of the NGCL contains provisions relating to
indemnification of officers and directors. Section 78.751(1) provides that a
corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party to any threatened,
pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative, except for an action by or in right of the
corporation by reason of the fact that he was a director, officer, employee or
agent of the corporation. In order to indemnify, it must be shown that he acted
in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in the best interest
of the corporation. Generally, no indemnification may be made where the person
has been determined to be negligent or guilty of misconduct in the performance
of his duty to the corporation.
Section 78.751(2) of the NGCL further allows the corporation to indemnify
any person who was or is 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, including amounts paid in settlement and attorneys' fees 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. Indemnification may not be
made for any claim, issue or matter to which a court of competent jurisdiction
has adjudged an officer or director liable to the corporation, unless and only
to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that in view of
the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to
indemnify for such expenses.
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 discussed in the preceding paragraphs, Section 78.751(3) of the NGCL
provides that he must be indemnified by the corporation against expenses,
including attorney's fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection
with the defense.
Except when indemnification is required by a court of competent
jurisdiction, Section 78.751(4) of the NGCL states that the corporation shall
only indemnify upon a determination of (i) the stockholders, (ii) majority vote
of the board that were not parties to the action; (iii) if ordered by a majority
vote of a quorum of directors who were not parties to the action,
24
suit or proceeding, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion; or (iv)
by independent legal counsel in a written opinion if no quorum of directors who
were not parties to the action may be obtained.
Unless ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction, indemnification may
not be made to or on behalf of any officer or director if a final adjudication
establishes that his acts or omissions involved intentional misconduct, fraud or
a knowing violation of the law and were material to the cause of action.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission,
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act
and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
EXPERTS

Million Dollar Saloon, Inc.
(formerly Goodheart Ventures, Inc.)
We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Million Dollar Saloon, Inc.
(formerly Goodheart Ventures, Inc.) and Subsidiaries (a Nevada corporation and
Texas corporations, respectively) as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the
related consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders' equity, and
cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are
the responsibility of Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Million
Dollar Saloon, Inc. (formerly Goodheart Ventures, Inc.) and Subsidiaries as of
December 31, 1995 and 1994 and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

MILLION DOLLAR SALOON, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
(formerly Goodheart Ventures, Inc.)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 1995 and 1994
NOTE A - BACKGROUND AND ORGANIZATION
Million Dollar Saloon, Inc. (formerly Goodheart Ventures, Inc.) (MDS-NV) was
incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on September 28, 1987. MDS-NV
completed a public sale of its securities on November 10, 1988 with the issuance
of 489,100 shares of its common stock. Additionally, MDS-NV issued 2,934,600
warrants to purchase one share of Class A common stock at $0.50 per share and
one share of Class B common stock at $0.75 per share. No warrants were exercised
by their holders and all issued and outstanding warrants have expired.
MDS-NV was formed for the purpose of seeking a suitable merger or acquisition
candidate. MDS-NV's activities have consisted principally of raising capital
and, as such, was a development stage company prior to the transactions
discussed in succeeding paragraphs.
In August 1995, MDS-NV experienced a change in control whereby members of
management of Furrh, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Tempo Tamers, Inc.,
Corporation Lex and Don, Inc. became the controlling shareholders of MDS-NV. The
shareholders of all entities then reached an oral agreement with whereby these
companies would become wholly-owned subsidiaries of MDS-NV.
On September 7, 1995, the shareholders of Furrh, Inc., Corporation Lex and Don,
Inc. exchanged 100% of their issued and outstanding stock for a net aggregate
3,925,000 shares of Million Dollar Saloon, Inc., a dormant Texas corporation,
(MDS-TX) owned by the majority shareholders of the respective companies. The
purpose of this transaction was to consolidate the ownership of Furrh, Inc. and
Tempo Tamers, Inc., Corporation Lex and Don, Inc. into a single company to
facilitate the merger with MDS-NV.
MDS-TX merged with and into MDS-NV, which was controlled by members of
management of MDS-TX, effective November 1, 1995. Goodheart Ventures, Inc. also
changed its corporate name to Million Dollar Saloon, Inc. (MDS-NV) on November
1, 1995. Furrh, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Tempo Tamers, Inc.,
Corporation Lex and Don, Inc. remain as separate operating entities and are
wholly-owned subsidiaries of MDS- NV.
The combination of Furrh, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Tempo Tamers,
Inc., Corporation Lex and Don, Inc. with MDS-TX and the subsequent merger of
MDS-TX with MDS-NV were separately accounted for in accordance with Accounting
Principles Board No. 16 - "Business Combinations", Interpretation #39 for
companies under common control on an "as if pooled" basis. The historical
financial statements of all involved entities have become the historical
consolidated financial statements of MDS-NV.
Furrh, Inc. (Furrh) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Texas on
February 25, 1974. Furrh owns and manages commercial rental property located in
Dallas County, Texas. Furrh's wholly-owned subsidiary, Tempo Tamers, Inc.
(Tempo), was incorporated under the laws of the State of Texas on July 3, 1978.
Tempo operates a lounge and entertainment facility, located in Dallas, Texas,
under the registered trademark and trade name "Million Dollar Saloon(R)".
Additionally, Furrh previously had two other wholly-owned subsidiaries, Don
Investments, Inc. and Tanfastic, Inc. All operations, assets and liabilities of
these two companies were closed and/or liquidated prior to January 1, 1993.
Furrh and Tempo had a February 28 year-end. Concurrent with the previously
discussed consolidation and merger, Furrh and Tempo changed their year-end to
December 31. The amounts utilized in the accompanying financial statements have
been restated to the new year end of December 31.

Corporation Lex (Lex) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Texas on
November 30, 1984. Lex owns and manages commercial rental property located in
Dallas County, Texas. Lex has a December 31 year end.
Don, Inc. (Don) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Texas on
November 8, 1973. Don owns and manages commercial rental property located in
Tarrant County, Texas. Don has a December 31 year end.
MDS-NV originally had a year-end of August 31. Concurrent with the merger of

its acquired operating companies.
These financial statements reflect the books and records of Million Dollar
Saloon, Inc. (formerly Goodheart Ventures, Inc.) (Nevada), Million Dollar
Saloon, Inc. (Texas), Furrh, Inc., Tempo Tamers, Inc., Corporation Lex and Don,
Inc. for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively. All
significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in combination. The
consolidated entities are referred to as Company.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements
for the six and three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively,
reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments)
necessary to present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and
cash flows of Million Dollar Saloon, Inc. and Subsidiaries.
The financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company,
without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such
rules and regulations. The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto
included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission for the year ended December 31, 1995. Certain
reclassifications and adjustments may have been made to the interim financial
statements for the comparative period(s) of the prior fiscal year to conform
with the current year presentation. The results of operations for interim
periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for the
entire year.
NOTE B - CAPITAL STOCK TRANSACTIONS
In January 1996, the Company issued approximately 10,000 shares of unregistered,
restricted common stock, valued at approximately $10,000, for fees related to a
consulting agreement.
MILLION DOLLAR SALOON, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED
NOTE C - DIVIDENDS
During the first quarter of 1996, the Company's Board of Directors declared a
cash dividend payable of $0.03 per share for all issued and outstanding shares
of common stock as of the record date of April 1, 1996. During the second and
third quarters of 1996, respectively, the Company's Board of Directors declared
cash dividends payable of $0.015 per share. The second quarter dividend was paid
during the third quarter of 1996 and the third quarter dividend is accrued as a
component of accrued liabilities on September 30, 1996.
The total dividends paid or accrued through September 30, 1996 is approximately
$300,600.
NOTE D - NOTE PAYABLE TO A BANK
On April 5, 1996, the Company executed a $500,000 loan payable to a bank for
working capital purposes. The loan bears interest at 6.50%. The accrued interest
is payable monthly and all unpaid interest and the principal is due and payable
in October 1996. The loan is secured by certificates of deposit.
NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
1. Cash and Cash Equivalents
--------------------------
For Statement of Cash Flows purposes, the Company considers all cash on hand
and in banks, including accounts in book overdraft positions, certificates of
deposit and other highly-liquid investments with maturities of three months
or less, when purchased, to be cash and cash equivalents.
Cash overdraft positions may occur from time to time due to the timing of
making bank deposits and releasing checks, in accordance with the Company's
cash management policies.
2. Accounts Receivable and Revenue Recognition
--------------------------------------------
In the normal course of business, the Company extends unsecured credit to
virtually all of its tenants related to rental property operations and
accepts national bankcards as payment for goods and services in its lounge
and entertainment facility. Bankcard charges are normally paid by the
clearing institution within three to fourteen days from the date of
presentation by the Company. All lease rental payments are either due on the
first day of the month in advance for the month or on the first day of the
week in arrears for the previous corresponding period. All revenue sources
are located either in Dallas or Tarrant County, Texas. Because of the credit
risk involved, management has provided an allowance for doubtful accounts
which reflects its opinion of amounts which will eventually become
uncollectible. In the event of complete non-performance, the maximum exposure
to the Company is the recorded amount of trade accounts receivable shown on
the balance sheet at the date of non-performance.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued
3. Inventory
----------
Inventory consists of food and liquor consumables necessary in the operation
of Tempo's lounge and entertainment facility. These items are valued at the
lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-out method of accounting.
4. Property and Equipment
-----------------------
Property and equipment is recorded at cost and is depreciated on a
straight-line basis, over the estimated useful lives (generally 10 to 40
years) of the respective asset. Major additions and betterments are
capitalized and depreciated over the remaining estimated useful lives of the
related assets. Maintenance, repairs, and minor improvements are charged to
expense as incurred.
5. Trademark rights
-----------------
Amounts paid in conjunction with the acquisition and retention of the
trademark "Million Dollar Saloon(R)" have been capitalized. The life of the
registration is twenty years from its affirmation in 1988 and may be extended
as allowed by applicable law at that point in time. This trademark has been
assigned Registration No. 1,509,636 by the U. S. Patent and Trademark Office.
The Company began to amortize the trademark over the remaining 13 year life,
commencing on October 1, 1995, concurrent with the aforementioned corporate
restructuring.
6. Income Taxes
-------------
Pre merger
----------
Furrh and Tempo file a consolidated Federal Income Tax return using a year
end of February 28. Lex files a separate Federal Income Tax return using a
year end of December 31. Don is a "Subchapter S" corporation and,
accordingly, the shareholders of Don are responsible for reporting the
revenues and expenses of this corporation.
Effective January 1, 1992, Furrh and Lex adopted the provisions the
provisions of FASB Statement No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes" which
requires the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes rather
than the deferred method previously required. At December 31, 1994 the
deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability accounts, as recorded when
material to the financial statements, are entirely the result of temporary
differences. No valuation allowance was provided against deferred tax assets.
Temporary differences represent differences in the recognition of assets and
liabilities for tax and financial reporting purposes, primarily accumulated
depreciation and amortization, and the anticipated utilization of net
operating loss carryforwards.
Post merger
-----------
Effective September 7, 1995, concurrent with the merger of Furrh, Don and Lex
into MDS-TX, the change in control of these operating companies created a
short-year Federal Income Tax return from the previously noted year end
through September 7, 1995 for Furrh, Tempo and Don. Additionally, Don
forfeited its Subchapter S election, effective September 7, 1995. All
entities except Lex will file a consolidated Federal Income Tax return for
the period September 7, 1995 through December 31, 1995. Lex will file as a
separate entity for Calendar 1995 and it is anticipated will be included in
the consolidated Federal Income Tax return for Calendar 1996 and all future
periods.

$224,000 as of December 31, 1995, for both financial reporting and tax
reporting purposes available to be carried forward to offset future taxable
income. In the event that these operating loss carryforwards are not used,
they will begin to expire in 2008. The capacity to utilize these net
operating loss carryforwards for periods after September 7, 1995, due to the
corporate restructuring and mergers previously discussed, created a deferred
tax asset of approximately $70,000 and $102,000, as of December 31, 1995 and
1994, respectively, utilizing the anticipated marginal incremental tax rate
of 34.0%. Under the requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 109, the accounting for the reverse merger on an "as-if-pooled"
basis causes the retroactive recognition of the deferred tax asset in each
respective accounting period presented. The cumulative prior period effect of
this adjustment was an increase in retained earnings as of January 1, 1994 of
approximately $62,000. The respective changes in the deferred tax asset
account for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively, are
reflected as a component of deferred income tax (benefit) expense in the
Statement of Income.
Additionally, the forfeiture of its Subchapter S election by Don at September
7, 1995 created a deferred tax liability of approximately $19,975 utilizing
the anticipated marginal incremental tax rate of 34.0%. Per the requirements
of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, this amount is
reflected as a component of deferred income tax (benefit) expense in the
Statement of Income for the year ended December 31, 1995.
Further, Furrh, Tempo and Lex have cumulative general business tax credit
carryforwards of approximately $80,700 available to offset future tax
liabilities, which if not used, begin to expire in 2009.
7. Earnings (loss) per share
--------------------------
Earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing consolidated net income
(loss) by the composite weighted-average number of shares of common stock
outstanding during the year.
8. Pending Accounting Standards not yet adopted
---------------------------------------------
The Company has not adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard Number
121 "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to be Disposed Of." The Company will adopt this standard for the first
quarter of 1996 and anticipates no adverse impact on the financial statements
upon the required implementation of this Standard.
No other issued and unimplemented accounting Standards are either applicable
to the Company or will have a material adverse impact on the financial
statements when implemented.

NOTE F - ADVANCES TO/FROM OFFICERS, SHAREHOLDERS AND AFFILIATES
The Company has made net cash advances to various officers, shareholders,
employees and affiliates aggregating approximately $715,500 and $697,000 as of
December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively and received net advances from
officers, shareholders and affiliates aggregating approximately $2,700 and
$25,000 as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. All advances receivable
are due upon demand and bear interest at the statutory interest rate set by the
Internal Revenue Service for related party loans. Due to the life of the
respective receivables and absence of a formalized repayment program, these
amounts are classified as non-current.
In September 1995, the two largest balances due from two shareholders were
converted to formal notes receivable bearing interest at 5.65%. These notes
mature in September 1997 and all accrued interest and principal is due at that
time. The notes are repayable in either cash or in stock of the Company at an
agreed-upon exchange rate of $2.00 per share. Both shareholders have adequate
share holdings to completely retire the debt, plus anticipated accrued interest,
at the scheduled maturity date. It is the intent of these shareholders to
liquidate the notes with cash repayments.
During 1994, the Company declared a dividend of approximately $365,225 which was
paid via an offset against the cash advances to various officers, shareholders
and affiliates. Additionally, certain officers and shareholders agreed, with the
permission of the creditor, to assume a trade account payable in the amount of
approximately $400,000. This assumption was accounted for as an offset between
the trade accounts payable account and the advances due from officers,
shareholders and affiliates account.

As of September 7, 1995, concurrent with the reorganization of Furrh, Inc.,
Corporation Lex and Don, Inc. into MDS-TX, the capacity to utilize the net
operating loss carryforward of Furrh, Inc., incurred through the September 7,
1995 reorganization date became more readily determinable. Accordingly, in
accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 109, MDS-TX,
upon the acquisition of Furrh, Inc., recognized a deferred tax asset to reflect
the future benefit related to the expected utilization of this net operating
loss carryforward. Further, based upon the accounting for the reverse merger on
an "as-if-pooled" basis causes the retroactive recognition of the deferred tax
asset in each respective accounting period presented. The cumulative prior
period effect of this adjustment was an increase in retained earnings as of
January 1, 1994 of approximately $62,000. The respective changes in the deferred
tax asset account for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively,

NOTE J - CAPITAL STOCK TRANSACTIONS
In August 1995, the Board of Directors of Furrh, Inc., prior to the
consolidation of Furrh into MDS-TX, approved the retirement of 10 shares of
Furrh, Inc. treasury stock which was purchased in 1990 for $75,000. This
retirement was accounted for as a reduction in the carrying value of issued and
outstanding common stock at $10, which equals the par value of the shares and a
reduction of retained earnings of $74,990, in accordance with the tenets of
Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 6.
On September 7, 1995, the shareholders of Furrh, Inc, Corporation Lex and Don,
Inc. collectively exchanged 100% of the issued and outstanding stock in each
corporation for an aggregate 3,925,000 shares of Million Dollar Saloon, Inc., a
dormant Texas corporation, (MDS-TX) owned by the majority shareholders of the
Company. The purpose of this transaction was to consolidate the ownership of
Furrh, Inc. and Subsidiary, Corporation Lex and Don, Inc. into a single new
company to facilitate the merger with a publicly-held "shell" corporation. The
operating entities of Furrh, Inc. and its subsidiary, Tempo Tamers, Inc.,
Corporation Lex and Don, Inc. became wholly-owned subsidiaries of MDS-TX. No
cash was paid as consideration for this corporate consolidation.
Also, on September 7, 1995, concurrent with the corporate consolidation, MDS-TX
sold under a Stock Purchase Agreement approximately 124,900 shares of
unregistered, restricted common stock at $2.00 per share to unrelated
third-party investors (Shareholders) raising $249,800. These stock sale proceeds
were used to retire debts assumed in the acquisition of treasury stock discussed
in the following paragraph.
Under one SPA, the Company was obligated to repurchase the 74,900 of the 124,900
shares at a price of $3.00 per share if the purchasers were unable to publicly
sell the shares at anytime within two (2) years from September 1, 1995. Under
this agreement, the Company was contingently liable to repurchase the shares for
an aggregate $224,700. The SPA was amended on October 31, 1995 and all of these
affected purchasers consented to the amendment in writing.
The Amended SPA contains the language "Shareholders shall have the right to sell
1/6 of the Seller Shares that they own during each 30-day period after the
effective date of the Registration Statement in Form SB-2 for six (6) months. If
during any such 30-day period the (Shareholder) is unable to receive a market
price of $3.00 per share for the Seller Shares that they own, then in such event
the Company shall issue to the (Shareholder) such number of additional shares
(the "Additional Shares") of the Company's Common Stock in order for the value
of the Seller Shares owned by the (Shareholder) that they attempted to sell
during any such 30-day period to be equal to $3.00 per share. If at any time
during any such 30-day period the closing market price of the Company's Common
Stock equals or exceeds $3.00 per share for five consecutive trading days and
the (Shareholder) did not elect to sell any or all of its shares subject to
being sold during such period, then in such event, the obligation of the Company
to issue Additional shares shall terminate as to those shares. " The Amended
Stock Purchase Agreement further defines the venue and methodology for
determining the share price and it is the understanding and intent of the
Company and the Purchasers that any Additional Shares shall be issued as
restricted and unregistered, Pursuant to Rule 144, to the Shareholders(s). Per
the Amended SPA, each 30-day stands alone and the obligation to issue Additional
Shares is not cumulative. This obligation to isssue Additional Shares shall
expire six (6) months after the effective date of the Form SB-2 Registration
Statement.

The remaining 50,000 of the 124,900 shares were sold undera a separate SPA which
set forth that the purchasers were limited to selling 1/6th of the aggregate
number of shares purchased in any 30-day period following the effective date of
a Registration Statement. In the event that the purchasers were unable to
receive a martket prie of at least $3.00 per share for these 50,000 shares
purchased, then in such event, the Company would issue additional shares of the
Company's common stock to these purchasers in torder for the value of the shares
that the purchasers attempted to sell during the 30-day period to be equal to
$3.00 per share. If at any time during any such 30-day period, to closing market
price of the Company's common stock equals or exceeds $3.00 per share for five
consecutive trading days and each of the purchasers did not elect to sell any or
all of their eligible shares for sale, then in such event, the obligation of the
Company to issue iadditional shares shall terminate. This separate SPA defines
the venue and methodology for determining the share price. Further, the SPA
states that the obligation to issue additional shares under these terms is not
cumulative and the obligation of the Company to issue additional shares under
this SPA terminates six (6) months after the effective date of a Registration
Statement. It is the understanding and intent of the Company and the Purchasers
that any Additional Shares shall be issued as restricted and unregistered,
pursuant to Rule 144, to the Shareholder (s).
As a result of the original separate SPA covering 50,000 shares of common stock
discussed in the immediately preceding paragraph, and the amendment to the SPA
covering 74,900 shares of common stock, the Company remains contingently liable
to only issue additional shares of unregistered, restricted common stock up to
and including the total authorized, but unissued, shares of the Company's common
stock.
At December 31, 1995, the Company had approximately 45,000,000 shares of
authorized, but unissued, common stock. In the event of a nominal market value
onthe Company's common stock on the respective selling dates, using a
theoretical situation whereby the market value would decline to $0.01 per share,
the Company would be obligated to isssue an additional 37,345,100 shares of
unregistered, restricted common stock.
On September 22, 1995, MDS-TX and the Estate of Don Furrh (a majority
shareholder of all involved corporations, pre- and post-reorganization)
exchanged approximately 325,000 of MDS-TX common stock held by the Estate for
MDS-TX's assumption of $650,000 in debts of the Estate (principally inheritance
taxes and related professional fees). Funds available from the new $750,000 note
payable and the proceeds of the September 7, 1995 stock sales were used to
immediately retire the assumed debt. This treasury stock was immediately retired
by an action of the Board of Directors. This retirement was accounted for as a
reduction in the carrying value of issued and outstanding common stock at $325,
which equals the par value of the shares issued in the combination of Furrh,
Inc. and MDS-TX and a reduction of additional paid-in capital of $649,675, in
accordance with the tenets of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 6.
On September 22, 1995, the Shareholders of MDS-NV approved a one-for-twelve
reverse stock split, all share amounts in the accompanying financial statements
reflect the effects of this reverse stock split as of the beginning of the first
period presented.
Also on September 22, 1995, the Shareholders of MDS-NV approved the merger of
MDS-NV with MDS-TX, through the exchange of 4,050,900 post-reverse split shares
of common stock, representing 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of
MDS-TX, for an equivalent number of shares of MDS-NV.
Concurrent with the merger transaction, the controlling shareholder of MDS-NV
(pre-merger) surrendered 500,000 post-reverse split shares of issued and
outstanding common stock to the company with no compensation given for the
surrender. The surrender resulted from the merger negotiations with MDS-TX and
the controlling shareholder's negotiations to become chief executive officer of
the Company. Further, the transaction was necessary to balance the ownership
percentages between the existing pre-merger shareholders of MDS-NV and the
shareholders of MDS-TX. The 500,000 shares were retired by action of the Board
of Directors immediately upon surrender. This transaction was accounted for with
an adjustment to the common stock and additional paid-in capital accounts for
the par value of the surrendered shares.
In June 1995, Furrh, Inc. entered into an agreement with a professional
consulting and financial services firm whereby the consultant would assist
Furrh, Inc. with the location of a suitable publicly-owned 'shell' company
merger candidate, raising the requisite equity capital to consummate the merger
and assist the Company in becoming a "fully reporting" company under the
definition of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Furrh, Inc. and the
consultant have agreed that the services provided will be paid with 200,000
shares of post-merger common stock in the resulting public company valued at
$200,000. This transaction is reflected in the accompanying financial statements
and was accounted for as a reduction of paid-in capital as a cost of selling
common stock of MDS-TX for an aggregate $249,800 and the facilitation of merging
MDS-TX into MDS-NV.
NOTE K - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

MILLION DOLLAR SALOON, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE A - BACKGROUND AND ORGANIZATION
Million Dollar Saloon, Inc. (formerly Goodheart Ventures, Inc.) (MDS-NV) was
incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on September 28, 1987. MDS-NV
completed a public sale of its securities on November 10, 1988 with the issuance
of 489,100 shares of its common stock. Additionally, MDS-NV issued 2,934,600
warrants to purchase one share of Class A common stock at $0.50 per share and
one share of Class B common stock at $0.75 per share. No warrants were exercised
by their holders and all issued and outstanding warrants have expired.
MDS-NV was formed for the purpose of seeking a suitable merger or acquisition
candidate. MDS-NV's activities have consisted principally of raising capital
and, as such, was a development stage company prior to the transactions
discussed in succeeding paragraphs.
In August 1995, MDS-NV experienced a change in control whereby members of
management of Furrh, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Tempo Tamers, Inc.,
Corporation Lex and Don, Inc. became the controlling shareholders of MDS-NV. The
shareholders of all entities then reached an oral agreement with whereby these
companies would become wholly-owned subsidiaries of MDS-NV.
On September 7, 1995, the shareholders of Furrh, Inc., Corporation Lex and Don,
Inc. exchanged 100% of their issued and outstanding stock for a net aggregate
3,925,000 shares of Million Dollar Saloon, Inc., a dormant Texas corporation,
(MDS-TX) owned by the majority shareholders of the respective companies. The
purpose of this transaction was to consolidate the ownership of Furrh, Inc. and
Tempo Tamers, Inc., Corporation Lex and Don, Inc. into a single company to
facilitate the merger with MDS-NV.
MDS-TX merged with and into MDS-NV, which was controlled by members of
management of MDS-TX, effective November 1, 1995. Goodheart Ventures, Inc. also
changed its corporate name to Million Dollar Saloon, Inc. (MDS-NV) on November
1, 1995. Furrh, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Tempo Tamers, Inc.,
Corporation Lex and Don, Inc. remain as separate operating entities and are
wholly-owned subsidiaries of MDS-NV.
The combination of Furrh, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Tempo Tamers,
Inc., Corporation Lex and Don, Inc. with MDS-TX and the concurrent merger of
MDS-TX with MDS-NV were separately accounted for in accordance with Accounting
Principles Board No. 16 - "Business Combinations", Interpretation #39 for
companies under common control on an "as if pooled" basis. The historical
financial statements of all involved entities have become the historical
consolidated financial statements of MDS-NV.
Furrh, Inc. (Furrh) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Texas on
February 25, 1974. Furrh owns and manages commercial rental property located in
Dallas County, Texas. Furrh's wholly-owned subsidiary, Tempo Tamers, Inc.
(Tempo), was incorporated under the laws of the State of Texas on July 3, 1978.
Tempo operates a lounge and entertainment facility, located in Dallas, Texas,
under the registered trademark and trade name "Million Dollar Saloon(R)".
Additionally, Furrh previously had two other wholly-owned subsidiaries, Don
Investments, Inc. and Tanfastic, Inc. All operations, assets and liabilities of
these two companies were closed and/or liquidated prior to January 1, 1993.
Furrh and Tempo had a February 28 year-end. Concurrent with the previously
discussed consolidation and merger, Furrh and Tempo changed their year-end to
December 31. The amounts utilized in the accompanying financial statements have
been restated to the new year end of December 31.

Saloon, Inc. (Texas), Furrh, Inc., Tempo Tamers, Inc., Corporation Lex and Don,

reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments)
necessary to present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and

with the current year presentation. The results of operations for interim
periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for the
entire year.

PROSPECTUS
---------------------------
___________, 1996
PART II
INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS
ITEM 1. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
The Company's Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that the Company will
indemnify its directors and executive officers and may indemnify its other
officers, employees, and other agents to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada
law.
In addition, the Company's Articles of Incorporation provides that, to
the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law, the Company's directors will not be
liable for monetary damages for breach of the directors fiduciary duty of care
to the Company and its stockholders. This provision in the Certificate of
Incorporation does not eliminate the duty of care, and in appropriate
circumstances, equitable remedies such as an injunction of other forms of
non-monetary relief would remain available under Nevada law. Each director will
be subject to liability for breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the
Company, for acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional
misconduct or knowing violations of law, for acts or omissions that the director
believes to be contrary to the best interests of the Company or its
stockholders, or any transaction from which the director derived an improper
personal benefit, for acts or omissions that the director believes to be
contrary to the best interests of the Company or its stockholders, or any
transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit, for
acts or omissions involving a reckless disregard for the director's duty to the
Company or its stockholders when the director was aware or should have been
aware of a risk of serious injury to the Company or its stockholders, for acts
or omissions that constitute an unexcused pattern of inattention that amounts to
an abdication of the director's duty to the Company or its stockholders, for
improper transactions between the director and the Company and for improper
distributions to stockholders and loans to directors and officers. This
provision also does not affect a director's responsibilities under any other
laws, such as the federal securities laws or state or federal environment laws.
ITEM 2. OTHER EXPENSES OF ISSUANCE AND DISTRIBUTION
SEC registration fee $ 1,211.27
Printing and engraving $ 2,000.00
Accountants fees and expenses $ 2,500.00
Legal fees and expenses $ 5,000.00
Transfer agent's fees and expenses $ 2,000.00
Miscellaneous $ 2,000.00
----------
Total $14,711.27 All expenses except for SEC registration fees are
estimated. The Selling Shareholders will not pay any portion of the foregoing
expenses.
ITEM 3. UNDERTAKINGS
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
1. For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act
of 1933 (the "Securities Act"), the information omitted from the form or
Prospectus filed as part of this Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule
430A and contained in a form of Prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to
Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be
part of this Registration Statement as of the time it was declared effective.
2. For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of Prospectus shall be
deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof. Insofar as indemnification for
liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to
directors, officers, and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the
provisions described under Item 24 above, or otherwise, the Registrant has been
advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such
indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In
the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than
the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director,
officer, or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of
any action, suit, or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer, or
controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the
Registrant will, unless, in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been
settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction,
the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication
of such issue.
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the
Underwriters at the closing specified in the Underwriting Agreement certificates
in such denominations and registered in such names as requested by the
Underwriters to permit prompt delivery to such purchaser.
3. Registrant will:
(a) File, during any period in which offers or sales are being made,
a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement to:
(i) Include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act;
(ii) Reflect in the prospectus, any facts or events which,
individually or together, represent a fundamental change in
the information in the Registration Statement; and
(iii)Include any material information with respect to the plan
of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration
Statement or any material change to such information in the
Registration Statement.
(b) For determining liability under the Securities Act, treat each
post-effective amendment as a new Registration Statement of the
securities offered, and the Offering of the securities at that
time to be the initial bona fide Offering.
(c) File a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any
of the securities that remain unsold at the end of the Offering.
(d) For determining any liability under the Securities Act, the
Registrant will treat the information omitted from the form of
prospectus filed as part of this Registration Statement in
reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus
filed by the small business the Company under Rule 424(b)(1), or
(4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act as part of this
Registration Statement as of the time the Commission declared it
effective.
(e) For determining any liability under the Securities Act, treat
each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus
as a new Registration Statement for the securities offered in the
Registration Statement, and that Offering of the securities at
that time as the initial bona fide Offering of those securities.
(f) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and
controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing
provisions or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in
the opinion of the securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event
that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other
than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid
by a director, officer or controlling person in connection with
the Securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by
controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will
be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
ITEM 4. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
On August 23, 1995, Bjorn Heyerdahl, before he became chief executive officer
and a director of the Company, acquired 12,000,000 shares of the Company's
restricted common stock from shareholders of the Company for a consideration of
$22,166.50. After the reverse split, he surrendered 500,000 shares to the
Company as a result of the merger negotiations and his negotiations to become
chief executive officer, the surrender was necessary to balance ownership
between the existing pre-merger shareholders of the Company and the shareholders
of MDS-TX.
On September 7, 1995, MDS-TX exchanged 3,925,000 shares of
unregistered, restricted common stock for 100% of the issued and outstanding
stock of Furrh and its subsidiary Tempo, Lex and Don. All entities involved in
the exchange shared common ownership, control, and management. The purpose of
this transaction was to consolidate ownership of the entities prior to the
Merger with the Company.
On September 7, 1995, MDS-TX sold 124,900 shares of unregistered,
restricted common stock to outside third parties for an aggregate $249,800. The
purpose of this transaction was to provide working capital prior to the Merger
with the Company. On October 5, 1995, MDS-TX was merged into the Company.
The parties relied on Section 4(2) of the Securities Act in that such
transactions did not involve a public offering and were thus exempt from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act. No underwriters were used in
connection with the foregoing transactions.
