NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2004
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of PowerChannel, Inc. and its subsidiaries, which are both
wholly and majority owned. All significant inter-company accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles
for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-QSB.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statements. In the opinion of the Company's management, the accompanying
consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (which include only
normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the consolidated
financial position and results of operations and cash flows for the periods
presented.
Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
the results of operations for a full year.
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a
going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and
satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company is a
development stage company and has incurred recurring losses from operations and
operating cash constraints that raises substantial doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern.
Our ultimate ability to continue as a going concern depends on the market's
acceptance of our products and our ability to raise additional funding and to
generate revenues, operating profits, and positive cash flow. We have an urgent
need for additional funding to provide near-term operating cash and enable us to
continue our operations and execute our plans to move toward profitability.
Although there can be no assurance, management believes that future financings
and additional sales that we hope to generate from our product lines will be
sufficient to allow us to continue in operation.

NOTE 3 - Investment In Unconsolidated Affiliate
As of December 31, 2003 the Company determined that there was an other than
temporary decline in value of its investment in PowerChannel Europe PLC ("PCE").
Accordingly, the Company recognized an impairment charge to operations of $
573,887 for the year ended December 31, 2003 representing this other than
temporary decline in value, thereby reducing the carrying value to zero at
December 31, 2003. As of September 30, 2004 the Company increased its ownership
percentage in PCE to 70.41%. Accordingly, the Company no longer accounts for PCE
under the equity method. As a majority owned subsidiary PCE is included in
consolidation (see Note 4).
NOTE 4 - Acquisition
On May 31, 2004 the Company acquired 13.47% of PCE (see Note 3) for $54,898
from a third party and on June 30, 2004 the Company acquired 38.44% of PCE for
$77,455 from two related parties. The Company issued 286,687 shares of common
stock to the two related parties as consideration for the PCE shares.
Concurrently therewith, the 286,687 shares of the Company were donated back to
the Company and cancelled by the two related parties.
At June 30, 2004, the Company's ownership in PCE increased to 70.41% and
the accounts of PCE have been included in these consolidated financial
statements. The transaction has been accounted for under the purchase method.
Accordingly, the consolidated statements of operations will include PCE's
results of operations from June 30, 2004. Prior to June 30, 2004 the Company had
accounted for its investment in PCE under the equity method and has recorded a
loss from the unconsolidated affiliate in the amount of $48,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 2004. PCE does not engage in any operations however it was
formerly engaged in the providing of Internet access.
Unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations as if the
acquisition had taken place at the beginning of 2003 would not have been
materially different from the amounts reported.
The following table provides unaudited condensed consolidated financial
information about PCE as of June 30, 2004 and for the six months then ended:
Current Assets $ 3 931,504
Total Assets $ 3,931,504
Current Liabilities $ 593,076
Total Liabilities $ 593,076

shares of common stock valued at $23,500 previously issued to a consultant for
services. The entire amount has been reported as a reduction of stock based
compensation for the quarter ended September 30, 2004.

2004 Incentive Stock Plan
During January 2004, the Company adopted the 2004 Incentive Stock Plan (the
"2004 Plan") under which options (either incentive or nonqualified), stock
awards and restricted stock purchase offers, covering an aggregate amount of
2,000,000 shares of common stock, may be granted to officers, directors,
employees and consultants of the Company. The exercise price established for any
awards granted under the Plan, shall be determined by a Compensation Committee
appointed by the Company's Board of Directors. The exercise price of incentive
stock options cannot be less than 100% (110% for 10% or greater shareholder
employees) of the fair market value ("FMV") at the date of grant and the
exercise price of nonqualified options cannot be less than 85% of the FMV at the
date of grant. The exercise period of incentive options cannot extend beyond 10
years from the date of grant and nonqualified options cannot extend beyond 10
years from the date of grant. During the nine months ended September 30, 2004
the Company issued an aggregate of 2,000,000 shares of common stock under the
2004 Plan.
Private Placement
During February and March 2004 the Company sold 99.5 Units to private
investors, each Unit consisting of 50,000 shares of common stock and 50,000
common stock purchase warrants at a price of $25,000 per Unit, pursuant to a
private placement memorandum that called for a maximum offering of 50 Units. In
connection with this offering the Company issued an aggregate of 4,975,000
shares of common stock and 4,975,000 common stock purchase warrants. The
warrants are exercisable into one share of common stock at an exercise price of
$.75 per warrant. The warrants are callable when the five-day average closing
bid price of the common stock equals or exceeds $1. The warrants are exercisable
for a period of 36 months from the final closing of the offering. In connection
with this offering the Company received gross proceeds of $2,487,500 and
incurred offering costs of approximately $265,000. Since a registration
statement covering these shares of common stock has not been declared effective
by May 29, 2004 the Company is required to pay a penalty equal to 2% per month
on the amount invested by each investor. Accordingly, the Company has accrued
$199,000 as of September 30, 2004 with a corresponding charge to additional
paid-in capital.

Consulting Services
On June 23, 2003, the Company entered into an Engagement Letter with
Knightsbridge Holdings, LLC, ("Knightsbridge") pursuant to which the Company
engaged Knightsbridge to provide certain consulting and related services for a
one-year term. As consideration for the services to be rendered under the
Engagement Letter, the Company issued an aggregate of 625,000 shares of common
stock valued at $625,000 to Knightsbridge. The Engagement Letter provides that
the Company issue to Knightsbridge, or its designees, an amount of common stock
of the Company, upon the closing of a merger/acquisition with a public company,
in an amount not less than 11.50% of the fully diluted shares of the post merger
company. The Engagement Letter further provides that such shares will have full
ratchet anti dilution provisions for the term of the Engagement Letter. The
Company believes that Knightsbridge failed to provide the consideration and
services that were contracted for, and, as a result, does not intend to issue
any additional shares to Knightsbridge. As of December 31, 2003, the Company has
reserved for issuance however, 1,504,193 shares of common stock valued at
$1,045,191 based upon the terms of the Engagement Letter and during the nine
months ended September 30, 2004, the Company has reserved an additional 865,963
shares valued at $782,564. Such 2,315,531 shares of common stock to be issued
have been reported as a component of stockholders' deficit. The value of these
shares to be issued along with the original 625,000 shares issued is being
amortized over one year and the remaining life of the contract. Amortization
reported as stock based compensation amounted to $1,674,524 for the nine months
ended September 30, 2004. There can be no assurance that Knightsbridge will not
commence an action against the Company relating to its rights to receive the
shares, or if instituted, that such action will not be successful. Although the
Company believes that any action which may be commenced would be without merit,
and it would vigorously defend any such action, the cost of such litigation can
be substantial even if the Company were to prevail. Further, an unfavorable
outcome could have a material adverse effect on the Company's revenues, profits,
results of operations, financial condition and future prospects.
On July 31, 2003, the Company entered into a consulting agreement ("the
Consulting Agreement") pursuant to which it engaged Churchill Investments, Inc.
("Churchill") to provide certain advisory services for a one-year term, for an
aggregate fee of $250,000. In lieu of payment, Churchill accepted a non-recourse
assignment of $280,000 Series A Convertible Notes (the "Non-recourse
Assignment'). Following the execution and delivery of the Non-recourse
Assignment, Churchill or its assignees, converted $110,539 of the Series A
Convertible Notes into 855,000 shares of common stock. These shares were valued
at $579,700 and were charged to operations in the year ended December 31, 2003.
The issuance of the shares of common stock in connection with the conversion of
the Series A Notes may not have been in compliance with certain state and
federal securities laws. The Company is currently unable to determine the amount
of damages, if any, that it may incur as a result of this issuance. The payment
of damages could have a material adverse effect on the Company's revenues,
profits, results of operations, financial condition and future prospects.
In May 2004, the Company and Churchill entered into a mutual release
whereby the parties released each other party from all obligations with respect
to the Consulting Agreement and the Non-recourse Assignment. In addition,
Churchill agreed to reassign the remaining outstanding balance of the Series A
Notes in the amount of $169,461 to the Company and the Company agreed to
indemnify Churchill for any losses due to claims instituted by third party
purchasers of shares issued upon conversion of the Series A Notes.

Litigation
Except for the following, the Company is currently not party to any
material legal proceedings.
In October 2003, a stockholder alleging investment fraud filed a claim in
the Civil Court of the City of New York seeking damages in the amount of
approximately $48,000.
In April 2003, a stockholder alleging investment fraud filed a claim in the
Supreme Court of Nassau County seeking damages in the amount of $25,000 plus
interest. The plaintiff has withdrawn his claim but may commence this action at
a future point in time.
The Company has recently received a Notice of Motion seeking a default
judgment and attorneys' fees in connection with a complaint filed by AKW
Holdings, LLC against the Company in the Supreme Court of the State of New York
- - County of Rockland Index #2693/04. AKW Holdings, LLC is seeking unpaid rents
of approximately $160,000 and attorneys' fees. As of the date hereof, the
Company has no knowledge as to whether a default judgment has been entered by
the Supreme Court of the State of New York - County of Rockland against the
Company. The Company believes this lawsuit is baseless and without merit and
intends to vigorously defend this lawsuit.
Management believes that the resolution of these claims will not have a
material effect on the financial position or results of operations of the
Company.
Antidilution Agreement
Steven Lampert, the Company's President, has entered into a Confidential
Antidilution Agreement dated July 1, 2003 with Michael Fasci, a former director
and officer of the Company. In consideration for Mr. Fasci agreeing to vote in
favor of the reverse merger the Company entered into in July 2003, Mr. Lampert
agreed to transfer to Mr. Fasci shares of his common stock whereby Mr. Fasci's
ownership would at all times be maintained at 10% of the outstanding shares of
the Company. The term of this agreement is for three years. As a result, Mr.
Lampert may be required to transfer all or a portion of his shares to Mr. Fasci.
Employment Agreement
On February 10, 2004, the Company entered into an employment agreement with
its Chief Executive Officer. The agreement is for a one year term with annual
renewal options. It provides for an annual base salary of $160,000, annual
performance bonuses, stock and stock option eligibility, and employee benefits.
Accrued Liabilities
Included in accrued liabilities are federal payroll taxes payable of
approximately $150,000 under federal tax liens.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
Business Summary
We provide low-cost access to the Internet. In order to accomplish this, we also
provide the physical hardware to deliver it through the use of the consumer's
existing television. We are primarily focused on the Hispanic market, using a
bilingual (English/Spanish) approach to meet the needs of the differing
generations within the Hispanic community. Our home page offers the subscriber
an English/Spanish language option at the click of a button. Our portal points
the subscriber to all the major Hispanic portals and to links with Hispanic
commercial, educational and community sites. The reach of our links is designed
to embrace the full extent of diverse Hispanic cultural and ethnic interests. As
we develop, we will continue to utilize the already existing and successful
Hispanic-specific content of others to enhance the practical sense of community
that its planned household penetration creates.
Acquisition of a Controlling Interest in Powerchannel Europe PLC
On May 31, 2004, we acquired 13.47% of Powerchannel Europe PLC ("PCE") for
$54,898 from Internet Investors, Inc. , a wholly owned subsidiary of Long
Distance Direct Holdings, Inc. ("LDH"). Mr. Lampert, our sole executive officer
and a director, resigned as an officer and a director of LDH on December 31,
2002 and currently owns approximately 9% of the issuance and outstanding shares
of common stock of LDH.
On June 30, 2004, we acquired 38.44% of PCE for $77,455 from Mr. Steven Lampert,
our Chief Executive Officer and a director, and Michael Preston. Mr. Preston has
occasionally served as a consultant to our company and owns a limited number of
our shares of common stock. We issued 286,687 shares of common stock to Mr.
Lampert and Mr. Preston as consideration for the PCE shares. Concurrently
therewith, the 286,687 shares were returned to us by Mr. Lampert and Mr. Preston
as capital contributions.
At June 30, 2004, our ownership in PCE increased to 70.41% and the accounts of
PCE have been included in our consolidated financial statements. The transaction
has been accounted for under the purchase method. Accordingly, the consolidated
statements of operations will include PCE's results of operations from June 30,
2004. Prior to June 30, 2004, we had accounted for its investment in PCE under
the equity method and has recorded a loss from the unconsolidated affiliate in
the amount of $48,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004. PCE does not
engage in any operations however it was formally engaged in the providing of
Internet access.
Results of Operations
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2004 compared to Nine Months Ended September 30,
2003
Revenues
During the nine months ended September 30, 2004 we had sales of approximately
$185,866, which is net of returns of $84,420. During the nine months ended
September 30, 2003, we did not generate any revenue. The reason for the increase
in the revenues was the commencement of our new business of providing low cost
Internet access.
Costs and Expenses
Cost and expenses incurred for the nine months ended September 30, 2004,
aggregated $6,309,040 as compared to $2,110,401 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2003. Cost and expenses increased by $4,198,639 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2004 when compared to the comparable period of the
prior year. This increase resulted from the following:
o Cost of sales of $151,462 during the nine months ended September 30,
2004 as compared to none for the nine months ended September 30, 2003;
o write down of inventories of $21,593 during the nine months ended
September 30, 2004 as compared to none for the nine months ended
September 30, 2003;
o selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended
September 30, 2004 of $1,443,455, as compared to $446,955 during the
nine months ended September 30, 2003, which represents an increase of
$996,500; and
o stock based compensation in the amount of $4,692,530 during the nine
months ended September 30, 2004 as compared to $1,663,446 during the
nine months ended September 30, 2003.
15
Net Loss
The net loss was $6,189,332 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, as
compared to a net loss of $2,108,469 for the nine months ended September 30,
2003. The net loss increased by $4,080,863 from the previous period primarily as
a result of the reasons set forth above.
Three Months Ended September 30, 2004 compared to Three Months Ended September
30, 2003
Revenues
During the quarter ended September 30, 2004 we had sales of approximately
$37,500, , which is net of returns of $84,420. During the three months ended
September 30, 2003, we did not generate any revenue. The reason for the returns
was the return of a majority of our set-top terminals previously delivered to
ISS-LG, Inc. for sale in Puerto Rico. The reason for the increase in the
revenues was the commencement of our new business of providing low cost Internet
access. Access fees are deferred and amortized over the life of the
subscription.
Costs and Expenses
Cost and expenses incurred for the three months ended September 30, 2004,
aggregated $1,465,377 as compared to $1,973,248 for the three months ended
September 30, 2003. Cost and expenses decreased by $507,871 for the three months
ended September 30, 2004 when compared to the comparable period of the prior
year. This decrease resulted from a decrease in stock based compensation in the
amount of $680,477. During the three months ended September 30, 2004 the
Company's stock based compensation was $982,969 and during the three months
ended September 30, 2003, the Company's stock based compensation was $1,663,446.
The decrease resulting from the decrease in stock based compensation was off-set
by an increase in the amount of $15,000 for the costs of sales and $157,606 in
selling, general and administrative expenses.
Net Loss
The net loss was $1,429,871 for the three months ended September 30, 2004, as
compared to a net loss of $1,968,290 for the three months ended September 30,
2003. The net loss decreased by $538,419 from the previous period primarily as a
result of a decrease in stock based compensation and an increase in revenues.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We had no off-balance sheet arrangements for the three months ending September
30, 2004.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Financial Condition
We generated minimal revenue to date and have financed our operations through
sales of our common stock and debt. The future success of our company depends
upon our ability to raise additional financing, generate greater revenue, and
exit the development stage. There is no guarantee that we will be able to do so.
At September 30, 2004, we had total current assets of $545,902 and total current
liabilities of $1,607,201 resulting in a working capital deficit of $1,061,299.
In addition, we had a stockholders deficit of $2,193,609 at September 30, 2004.
We are a development stage company that has a working capital deficit at
September 30, 2004 of $1,061,299 and for the period August 10, 1998 (inception)
to September 30, 2004 has incurred net losses aggregating $18,109,071. These
factors combined with our urgent need to provide near-term operating cash raise
substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Management's
plans with respect to alleviation of the going concern issues include
establishment of strategic partnerships with key suppliers and customers, the
raising of capital by the sale of shares of common stock our company, and
through potential operating revenues stemming from the sale of set-top boxes and
internet access. Continuation of our company is dependent on the following:
o consummation of the contemplated financings,
o achieving sufficiently profitable operations,
o subsequently maintaining adequate financing arrangements and
o exiting the development stage.
The achievement and/or success of our company's planned measures, however,
cannot be determined at this time.
16
Capital Resources
We anticipate generating cash to continue our operations either though private
sales of our common stock or from capital contributions from our officers and/or
directors. In addition, we hope to reach levels of revenue sufficient to meet
our operating costs. There is no guarantee that we will be able to reach these
levels or generate cash through the sale of our common stock. We currently do
not have any agreements or arrangements for financing.
Since the merger in July 2003 through April 2004, our investors have provided
funding approximately in the amount of $2,600,000 in cash, and various parties
have provided services valued at approximately $5,000,000, in consideration for
the issuance of securities issued or to be issued. To obtain funding for our
ongoing operations, pursuant to an offering conducted under Rule 506 of
Regulation D, as promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, we sold units to
accredited investors with each unit consisting of 50,000 shares of common stock
and 50,000 common stock purchase warrants at a price of $25,000 per unit. In
connection with this offering we issued an aggregate of 4,975,000 shares of
common stock and 4,975,000 common stock purchase warrants for an aggregate
purchase price of $2,487,500. The common stock purchase warrants are each
exercisable into one share of common stock at the holder's option at an exercise
price of $.75 per warrant. At anytime after the filing of this registration
statement, we may call the warrants when the five-day average closing bid price
of the common stock equals or exceeds $1.00. The warrants are exercisable for a
period of thirty-six months.
We need to raise an additional $2,000,000 during the next 12 months to
effectively institute our business plan to market and distribute our products.
In connection with this private placement, we agreed to file a registration
statement registering the shares of common stock issued and to have such
registration statement declared effective by May 29, 2004. In the event a
registration statement covering these shares of common stock has not been
declared effective by May 29, 2004, we are required to pay a penalty equal to 2%
per month on the amount invested by each investor. If we are required to pay
this penalty, our working capital will be severely limited and we may be forced
to curtail or ceased our operations. We are currently seeking debt and/or equity
financing arrangements to provide an alternative source for our future capital
needs. We currently do not have any agreements or arrangements for financing.
There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain this capital on
acceptable terms, if at all. In such an event, this may have a materially
adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. The
following discusses the manner in which we will utilize our material funding
requirements of $2,000,000:
- ----------------------------------- -------------------------------------
Expense Amount
- ----------------------------------- -------------------------------------
Working Capital $800,000
- ----------------------------------- -------------------------------------
Marketing $750,000
- ----------------------------------- -------------------------------------
Professional Expenses $250,000
- ----------------------------------- -------------------------------------
General and Administrative $200,000
- ----------------------------------- -------------------------------------
17
Related Party Loans
During the quarter ended March 31, 2004, we made certain loans to the President
and CEO, aggregating $56,607. During this same period the loans were repaid
through the payment of cash in the amount of $43,300 and the application of
accrued salaries in the amount of $13,307. These loans made to Mr. Lampert
violate Section 402 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002. As a result, despite the
fact that such loans were repaid, our company and/or Mr. Lampert may be subject
to fines, sanctions and/or penalties. At this time, we are unable to determine
the amount of such fines, sanctions and/or penalties that may be incurred by our
company and/or Mr. Lampert. The purpose of such loan was for personal use.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Principals of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PowerChannel, Inc.
and its wholly owned and majority owned subsidiaries. All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market on a first-in, first-out
basis. We have recognized a loss of $443,063 and $21,593 during the year ended
December 31, 2003 and the nine months ended September 30, 2004, respectively,
related to the valuation of its inventories.
Deferred Offering Costs
Deferred offering costs represent costs incurred in connection with a proposed
offering of our securities. Upon successful completion of the proposed offering
such costs will be charged to additional paid-in capital. These deferred
offering costs represent the issuance of 35,000 shares of common stock valued at
$14,000. Accordingly, deferred offering costs are reported as a component of
stockholders' deficit.
Revenue Recognition
Revenues from the sale of set-top boxes are recognized at time of shipment to
customer. Access fees are deferred and amortized over the life of the
subscription.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Comprehensive income (loss) which is reported on the accompanying consolidated
statement of stockholders' deficit as a component of accumulated other
comprehensive income (loss) consists of accumulated foreign translation gains
and losses.
Stock-Based Compensation
As permitted under FAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", we
have elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (APB No. 25),
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and related interpretations in
accounting for stock-based awards to employees. Accordingly, compensation cost
for stock options and restricted stock grants is measured as the excess, if any,
of the market price of our common stock at the date of grant over the exercise
price. Warrants and options issued to nonemployees are accounted for using the
fair value method of accounting as prescribed by FAS No. 123 and Emerging Issues
Tak Force ("EITF") No. 96-18, "Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued
to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or
Services". Compensation costs are amortized in a manner consistent with
Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 28 (FIN No. 28),
"Accounting for Stock Appreciation Rights and Other Variable Stock Option or
Award Plans". We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value options,
restricted stock grants and warrants granted to nonemployees.
Basic and Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed based by dividing net income (loss)
by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the
period. The Common stock issued and outstanding with respect to the pre-merger
Sealant stockholders has been included since January 1, 2001.
Because we are incurring losses, the effect of stock options and warrants is
antidilutive. Accordingly, our presentation of diluted net loss per share is the
same as that of basic net loss per share.
Pro-forma weighted average shares outstanding includes the pro-forma issuance of
1,504,953 common shares reserved to be issued pending potential litigation.
18
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and the disclosures 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 these estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2003, the FASB issued FAS No. 150 (FAS 150), "Accounting for Certain
Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity." This
statement affects the classification, measurement and disclosure requirements of
certain freestanding financial instruments including mandatorily redeemable
shares. FAS 150 is effective for all financial instruments entered into or
modified after May 31, 2003.
In August 2001, the FASB issued FAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". This statement supercedes FAS No. 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
be Disposed of", and amends Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 30,
"Reporting Results of Operations - Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a
Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring
Events and Transactions". FAS No. 144 retains the fundamental provisions of FAS
No. 121 for recognition and measurement of impairment, but amends the accounting
and reporting standards for segments of a business to be disposed of. FAS No.
144 was effective in 2002.
On December 31, 2002, the FASB issued FAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation - Transition and Disclosure". FAS No. 148 amends FAS No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", to provide alternative methods of
transition to FAS No. 123's fair value method of accounting for stock-based
employee compensation. FAS No. 148 also amends the disclosure provisions of FAS
No. 123 and Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 28, "Interim
Financial Reporting", to require disclosure in the summary of significant
accounting policies of the effects of an entity's accounting policy with respect
to stock-based employee compensation on reported net income and earnings per
share in annual and interim financial statements. While the statement does not
amend FAS No. 123 to require companies to account for employee stock options
using the fair value method, the disclosure provisions of FAS No. 148 are
applicable to all companies with stock-based employee compensation, regardless
of whether they account for that compensation using the fair value method of FAS
No. 123, or the intrinsic value method of APB Opinion 25, "Accounting for Stock
issued to Employees" ("APB 25").
The adoption of FAS 144 and 150 is not expected to have a material effect on our
results of operations or financial position.
Risk Factors
Risks relating to our company
We have a history of losses since our inception and expect to incur losses for
the foreseeable future.
We incurred net losses for the year ended December 31, 2003 of $4,393,962 and
for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 of $6,189,332. We have not yet
achieved profitability and we can give no assurances that we will achieve
profitability within the foreseeable future as we fund acquisitions, operating
and capital expenditures in areas such as establishment and expansion of
markets, sales and marketing, operating equipment and research and development.
We cannot assure investors that we will ever achieve or sustain profitability or
that our operating losses will not increase in the future.
We have a limited operating history in which to evaluate our business
Although our predecessor was in business for eight years, we have been in
business less than one year. We have limited operating history and limited
assets. Our limited financial resources are significantly less than those of
other companies, which can develop a similar product in the U.S.
If we do not obtain additional cash to operate our business, we may not be able
to execute our business plan and may not achieve profitability.
In the event that cash flow from operations is less than anticipated and we are
unable to secure additional funding to cover these added losses, in order to
preserve cash, we would be required to further reduce expenditures and effect
further reductions in our corporate infrastructure, either of which could have a
material adverse effect on our ability to continue our current level of
operations. To the extent that operating expenses increase or we need additional
funds to make acquisitions, develop new technologies or acquire strategic
19
assets, the need for additional funding may be accelerated and there can be no
assurances that any such additional funding can be obtained on terms acceptable
to us, if at all. If we are not able to generate sufficient capital, either from
operations or through additional financing, to fund our current operations, we
may not be able to continue as a going concern. If we are unable to continue as
a going concern, we may be forced to significantly reduce or cease our current
operations. This could significantly reduce the value of our securities, which
could result in our de-listing from the OTC Bulletin Board and cause investment
losses for our shareholders.
Our Independent Auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to
continue as a going concern, which may hinder our ability to obtain future
financing.
In their report dated April 16, 2004, our independent auditors stated that our
financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2003 were prepared assuming
that we would continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going
concern is an issue raised as a result of recurring losses from operations and
cash flow deficiencies from our inception. We continue to experience net losses.
Our ability to continue as a going concern is subject to our ability to generate
a profit and/or obtain necessary funding from outside sources, including
obtaining additional funding from the sale of our securities, increasing sales
or obtaining loans and grants from various financial institutions where
possible. Our continued net losses and stockholders' deficit increases the
difficulty in meeting such goals and there can be no assurances that such
methods will prove successful.
Our future success is dependent, in part, on the performance and continued
service of our President.
Our performance and future operating results are substantially dependent on the
continued service and performance of Steven Lampert, our President, Chief
Executive Officer and shareholder. We will rely on Mr. Lampert to develop our
business and possible acquisitions. If Mr. Lampert's services become
unavailable, our business and prospects would be adversely affected. We do not
currently maintain "key man" insurance for any of our executive officers or
other key employees and do not intend to obtain this type of insurance until
such time as the Company has positive cash flow and is profitable. The loss of
the services of Mr. Lampert could have a material adverse effect on our
financial condition, operating results, and, on the public market for our common
stock.
Increased competition in the Internet service industry may make it difficult for
our company to attract and retain members and to maintain current pricing
levels.
We operate in the Internet services market, which is extremely competitive. Our
current and prospective competitors include many large companies that have
substantially greater market presence, financial, technical, marketing and other
resources than we have. We compete directly or indirectly with the following
categories of companies:
o established online service providers, such as America Online, Inc.,
the Microsoft Network and Prodigy Communications Corporation;
o local, regional and national Internet service providers;
o national telecommunications companies;
o regional Bell operating companies, such as BellSouth Corporation and
SBC Communications Inc.;
o personal computer manufacturers with Internet service provider
businesses such as Gateway, Inc. and Dell Computer Corporation;
o "free access" Internet service providers; and
o online cable services; and
o television manufacturers with "built in Internet capabilities" such as
Sony, Toshiba and Mitsubishi.
We will also face competition from companies that provide broadband and other
high-speed connections to the Internet, including local and long-distance
telephone companies, cable television companies, electric utility companies, and
wireless communications companies. These companies may use broadband
technologies to include Internet access or Web hosting in their basic bundle of
services or may offer Internet access or Web hosting services for a nominal
additional charge. Broadband technologies enable consumers to transmit and
receive print, video, voice and data in digital form at significantly faster
access speeds than existing dial-up modems.
20
Our competition is likely to increase. We believe this will probably happen as
large diversified telecommunications and media companies acquire Internet
service providers, as Internet service providers consolidate into larger, more
competitive companies and as providers who offer free access to the Internet
grow in number and size. Diversified competitors may bundle other services and
products with Internet connectivity services, potentially placing us at a
significant competitive disadvantage. In addition, competitors may charge less
than we do for Internet services, or may charge nothing at all in some
circumstances, causing us to reduce, or preventing us from raising, our fees.
Furthermore, the increase in "wired" homes with high speed Internet access
equipment built directly into the home may prevent us from achieving a
substantial member based. As a result, our business may suffer.
Any disruption in the Internet access provided by our company could adversely
affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Our systems and infrastructure will be susceptible to natural and man-made
disasters such as earthquakes, fires, floods, power loss and sabotage. Our
systems also will be vulnerable to disruptions from computer viruses and
attempts by hackers to penetrate our network security.
We will be covered by insurance from loss of income from some of the events
listed above, but this insurance may not be adequate to cover all instances of
system failure. Any of the events described above could cause interference,
delays, service interruptions or suspensions and adversely affect our business
and results of operations.
We must continue to expand and adapt our system infrastructure to keep pace with
the increase in the number of members who use the services we expect to provide.
Demands on infrastructure that exceed our current forecasts could result in
technical difficulties with our servers. Continued or repeated system failures
could impair our reputation and brand names and reduce our revenues.
If, in the future, we cannot modify these systems to accommodate increased
traffic, we could suffer slower response times, problems with customer service
and delays in reporting accurate financial information. Any of these factors
could significantly and adversely affect the results of our operations.
If our third party network providers are unable or unwilling to provide Internet
access to our members on commercially reasonable terms, we may suffer the loss
of customers, higher costs and lower overall revenues.
We provide dial-up access through company-owned points of presence and through
third party networks. We will be able to serve our members through the
combination of network providers that we deem most efficient. Our ability to
provide Internet access to our members will be limited if:
o our third-party network providers are unable or unwilling to provide
access to our members;
o we are unable to secure alternative arrangements upon termination of
third-party network provider agreements; or
o there is a loss of access to third-party providers for other reasons.
These events could also limit our ability to further expand nationally and/or
internationally, which could have a material adverse affect on our business. If
we lose access to third-party providers under current arrangements, we may not
be able to make alternative arrangements on terms acceptable to us, or at all.
We do not currently have any plans or commitments with respect to alternative
third-party provider arrangements in areas served by only one network provider.
Moreover, while the contracts with the third-party providers require them to
provide commercially reliable service to our members with a significant
assurance of accessibility to the Internet, the performance of third-party
providers may not meet our requirements, which could materially adversely affect
our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our revenues and results of operations will be dependent upon our proprietary
technology and we may not be successful in protecting our proprietary rights or
avoiding claims that we are infringing upon the proprietary rights of others.
Our success depends in part upon our software and related documentation. We
principally rely upon copyright, trade secret and contract laws to protect our
proprietary technology. We cannot be certain that we have taken adequate steps
to prevent misappropriation of our technology or that our competitors will not
independently develop technologies that are substantially equivalent or superior
to our technology.
21
We could incur substantial costs and diversion of management resources in the
defense of any claims relating to proprietary rights, which could materially
adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Parties making these claims could secure a judgment awarding substantial damages
as well as injunctive or other equitable relief that could effectively block our
ability to license our products in the United States or abroad. Such a judgment
could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and
results of operations. If a third party asserts a claim relating to proprietary
technology or information against us, we may seek licenses to the intellectual
property from the third party. We cannot be certain, however, that third parties
will extend licenses to us on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. If we
fail to obtain the necessary licenses or other rights, we could materially
adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
If we fail to grow our user base, we may not be able to generate revenues,
decrease per user telecommunications costs or implement our strategy
If we are unable to grow our user base, we may not be able to generate revenues,
decrease per-user telecommunications costs or implement our strategy. We intend
to generate new users through other distribution channels, such as television,
radio and print media advertising, direct marketing campaigns, and bundling,
co-branding and retail distribution arrangements. However, we have little
practical experience with marketing our service through these channels. If these
distribution channels prove more costly or less effective than anticipated, it
could adversely impact our ability to grow. We would also be unable to grow our
user base if a significant number of our current registered users stopped using
our service. We cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully address
these issues and retain our existing user base.
Changed in government regulation could decrease our revenues and increase our
costs.
Changes in the regulatory environment could decrease our revenues and increase
our costs. As a provider of Internet access and e-mail services, we are not
currently subject to direct regulation by the Federal Communications Commission.
However, several telecommunications carriers are seeking to have communications
over the Internet regulated by the FCC in the same manner as other more
traditional telecommunications services. Local telephone carriers have also
petitioned the FCC to regulate Internet access providers in a manner similar to
long distance telephone carriers and to impose access fees on these providers,
and recent events suggest that they may be successful in obtaining the treatment
they seek. In addition, we operate our services throughout the United States,
and regulatory authorities at the state level may seek to regulate aspects of
our activities as telecommunications services. As a result, we could become
subject to FCC and state regulation as Internet services and telecommunications
services converge.
We remain subject to numerous additional laws and regulations that could affect
our business. Because of the Internet's popularity and increasing use, new laws
and regulations with respect to the Internet are becoming more prevalent. These
laws and regulations have covered, or may cover in the future, issues such as:
o user privacy;
o pricing;
o intellectual property;
o federal, state and local taxation;
o distribution; and
o characteristics and quality of products and services.
Legislation in these areas could slow the growth in use of the Internet
generally and decrease the acceptance of the Internet as a communications and
commercial medium. Additionally, because we rely on the collection and use of
22
personal data from our subscribers for targeting advertisements shown on our
services, we may be harmed by any laws or regulations that restrict our ability
to collect or use this data. The Federal Trade Commission has begun
investigations into the privacy practices of companies that collect information
about individuals on the Internet. In addition, the FTC is conducting an ongoing
investigation into the marketing practices of Internet-related companies,
including Juno. As part of the FTC's activities, we have been requested to
provide, and have provided, marketing-related and customer service-related
information to the FTC. Depending on the outcome of the FTC inquiry, we could be
required to modify our marketing or customer service practices in a way that
could negatively affect our business.
It may take years to determine how existing laws such as those governing
intellectual property, privacy, libel and taxation apply to the Internet. Any
new legislation or regulation regarding the Internet, or the application of
existing laws and regulations to the Internet, could harm us. Additionally,
while we do not currently operate outside of the United States, the
international regulatory environment relating to the Internet market could have
an adverse effect on our business, especially if we should expand
internationally.
The growth of the Internet, coupled with publicity regarding Internet fraud, may
also lead to the enactment of more stringent consumer protection laws. For
example, numerous bills have been presented to Congress and various state
legislatures designed to address the prevalence of unsolicited commercial bulk
e-mail on the Internet. These laws may impose additional burdens on our
business. The enactment of any additional laws or regulations in this area may
impede the growth of the Internet, which could decrease our potential revenues
or otherwise cause our business to suffer.
Regulation of content and access could limit our ability to generate revenues
and expose us to liability
Prohibition and restriction of Internet content and access could dampen the
growth of Internet use, decrease the acceptance of the Internet as a
communications and commercial medium and expose us to liability. A variety of
restrictions on content and access, primarily as they relate to children, have
been enacted or proposed, including laws which would require Internet service
providers to supply, at cost, filtering technologies to limit or block the
ability of minors to access unsuitable materials on the Internet. Because of
these content restrictions and potential liability to us for materials carried
on or disseminated through our systems, we may be required to implement measures
to reduce our exposure to liability. These measures may require the expenditure
of substantial resources or the discontinuation of our product or service
offerings that subject us to this liability. Further, we could incur substantial
costs in defending against any of these claims and we may be required to pay
large judgments or settlements or alter our business practices. In addition, our
liability insurance may not cover potential claims relating to the Internet
services we provide or may not be adequate to indemnify us for all liabilities
that may be imposed on us.
We could be exposed to liability for defamation, negligence and infringement.
Because users download and redistribute materials that are cached or replicated
by us in connection with our Internet services, claims could be made against us
for defamation, negligence, copyright or trademark infringement, or other
theories based on the nature and content of such materials. While we have
attempted to obtain safe harbor protection against claims of copyright
infringement under the Digital Millenium Copyright Act of 1998, there can be no
guarantee that we will prevail in any such claims. We also could be exposed to
liability because of third-party content that may be accessible through our
services, including links to Web-sites maintained by our users or other third
parties, or posted directly to our Web-site, and subsequently retrieved by a
third party through our services. It is also possible that if any third-party
content provided through our services contains errors, third parties who access
such material could make claims against us for losses incurred in reliance on
such information. You should know that these types of claims have been
successfully brought against other online service providers. In particular,
copyright and trademark laws are evolving and it is uncertain how broadly the
rights provided under these laws will be applied to online environments. It is
impossible for us to determine who the potential rights holders may be with
respect to all materials available through our services.
We are dependent on strategic marketing alliances as a source of revenues and
our business could suffer if any of these alliances are terminated.
We have strategic marketing alliances with a number of third parties, and most
of our strategic marketing partners have the right to terminate their agreements
with us on short notice. Any termination may result in the substantial loss of
members obtained through the alliance. If any of our strategic marketing
23
agreements are terminated, we cannot assure you that we will be able to replace
the terminated agreement with an equally beneficial arrangement. We also expect
that we will not be able to renew all of our current agreements when they expire
or, if we are, that we will be able to do so on acceptable terms. We also do not
know whether we will be successful in entering into additional strategic
marketing alliances, or that any additional relationships, if entered into, will
be on terms favorable to us. Our receipt of revenues from our strategic
marketing alliances may also be dependent on factors which are beyond our
control, such as the quality of the products or services offered by our
strategic marketing partners.
The Company and/or its President and CEO may be subject to fines, sanctions
and/or penalties of an indeterminable nature as a result of violations of the
Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 in connection with loans made to the President and
CEO.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2004, we made certain loans to Mr. Steven
Lampert, the Company's President and CEO, aggregating $56,607. During this same
period the loans were repaid through the payment of cash in the amount of
$43,300 and the application of accrued salaries in the amount of $13,307. These
loans made to Mr. Lampert violate Section 402 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002.
As a result, despite the fact that such loans were repaid, our company and/or
Mr. Lampert may be subject to fines, sanctions and/or penalties. At this time,
we are unable to determine the amount of such fines, sanctions and/or penalties
that may be incurred by our Company and/or Mr. Lampert. The purpose of such loan
was for personal use.
We may be required to pay penalties to the investors that participated in our
private placement that closed in January 2004 due to the fact that the
registration statement registering the shares issued in connection with this
private placement has not been declared effective within the required deadline.
If we are required to pay such penalties, we may be forced to cease or curtail
our operations.
To obtain funding for our ongoing operations, pursuant to an offering conducted
under Rule 506 of Regulation D, we sold units to accredited investors with each
unit consisting of 50,000 shares of common stock and 50,000 common stock
purchase warrants at a price of $25,000 per unit. In connection with this
offering, we raised $2,487,500. In connection with this private placement, we
agreed to file a registration statement registering the shares of common stock
issued and to have such registration statement declared effective by May 29,
2004. Since a registration statement covering these shares of common stock has
not been declared effective by May 29, 2004 the Company is required to pay a
penalty equal to 2% per month on the amount invested by each investor.
Accordingly, the Company has accrued $199,000 as of September 30, 2004 with a
corresponding charge to additional paid-in capital.
Risks Related To Our Stock
A former consultant may be entitled to receive 11.50% of the Company's fully
diluted outstanding shares which, if the Company is required to issue these
shares, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.
On June 23, 2003, the Company entered into an Engagement Letter which requires
that the Company issue to Knightsbridge, or its designees, an amount of common
stock of the Company, upon the closing of a merger/acquisition with a public
company, in an amount not less than 11.50% of the fully diluted shares of the
post merger company. The Engagement Letter further provides that such shares
will have full ratchet anti dilution provisions for the term of the Engagement
Letter. The Company believes that Knightsbridge failed to provide the
consideration and services that were contracted for, and, as a result, does not
intend to issue any additional shares to Knightsbridge. There can be no
assurance that Knightsbridge will not commence an action against the Company
relating to its rights to receive the shares, or if instituted, that such action
will not be successful. Although the Company believes that any action which may
be commenced would be without merit, and it would vigorously defend any such
action, the cost of such litigation can be substantial even if the Company were
to prevail. Further, an unfavorable outcome could have a material adverse effect
on the Company's revenues, profits, results of operations, financial condition
and future prospects.
The issuance of shares of common stock in connection with the conversion of
Series A Convertible Notes may have not have been in compliance with certain
state and federal securities laws and any damages that we may have to pay as a
result of such issuance could have a material adverse effect on our revenues,
profits, results of operations, financial condition and future prospects.
24
On July 31, 2003, we entered into a Consulting Agreement pursuant to
which we engaged the consultant to provide certain advisory services for a
one-year term, for an aggregate fee of $250,000. In lieu of payment, the
Consultant agreed to accept in the form of a non-recourse assignment of $280,000
Series A Convertible Notes. Following the execution and delivery of the
Non-recourse Assignment, the consultant or its assignees, converted $110,539 of
the Series A Convertible Notes into 855,000 shares of common stock. The issuance
of the shares of common stock in connection with the conversion of the Series A
Convertible Notes may not have been in compliance with certain state and federal
securities laws due to the fact that the consultant or its assignees, at the
time of the conversion, may not have been the lawful holder in due course of the
notes by virtue of the fact that the notes were assigned to them without the
consent of the original note holders. It should be noted that we subsequently
settled with a majority of the original note holders and we entered into a
settlement with the consultant whereby the remaining portion of the assigned
note was cancelled.
In addition, any subsequent sale of the shares issuable upon
conversion of the notes, may have violated Rule 144 if the consultant sold the
shares under Rule 144 and relied upon the holding period of the initial note
holder to qualify for such sale. As we have settled with the consultant, we do
not plan to offer rescission at this time. We are currently unable to determine
the amount of damages, if any, that it may incur as a result of this issuance,
which include, but are not limited to, damages that may result from the
following
o subsequent third party purchaser(s) of the shares that were resold by
the consultant and its assignees upon conversion of the Series A
Notes, and/or
o other existing shareholders of our Company that may make a claim, on a
derivative basis, that these transactions and the shares issued, may
have resulted in a dilution of the value of their shareholdings.
The payment of damages could have a material adverse effect on our revenues,
profits, results of operations, financial condition and future prospects.
Steven Lampert, the Company's sole officer and a director, entered into an
agreement whereby he may be required to transfer his shares of common stock of
the Company
Steven Lampert has entered into a Confidential Antidilution Agreement dated July
1, 2003 with Michael Fasci, a former director and officer of the Company. In
consideration for Mr. Fasci agreeing to vote in favor of the reverse merger the
Company entered into in July 2003, Mr. Lampert agreed to transfer to Mr. Fasci
shares of his common stock so that Mr. Fasci's ownership would at all times be
maintained at 10% of the outstanding shares of the Company. The term of this
agreement is for three years. As a result, Mr. Lampert may be required to
transfer all or a portion of his shares to Mr. Fasci.
We have anti-takeover provisions, which could inhibit potential investors or
delay or prevent a change of control that may favor you.
Some of the provisions of our certificate of incorporation, our bylaws and
Delaware law could, together or separately, discourage potential acquisition
proposals or delay or prevent a change in control. In particular, our board of
directors is authorized to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock (less
any outstanding shares of preferred stock) with rights and privileges that might
be senior to our common stock, without the consent of the holders of the common
stock.
If we cannot operate as a going concern, our stock price will decline and you
may lose your entire investment.
Our auditors included an explanatory paragraph in their report on our financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 2003 which states that, due to
recurring losses from operations since inception of the Company, there is
substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Our Common Stock is Subject to the "Penny Stock" Rules of the SEC and the
Trading Market in Our Securities is Limited, Which Makes Transactions in Our
Stock Cumbersome and May Reduce the Value of an Investment in Our Stock.
The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which
establishes the definition of a "penny stock," for the purposes relevant to us,
as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or
with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain
exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the
rules require:
25
o that a broker or dealer approve a person's account for
transactions in penny stocks; and
o the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written
agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and
quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.
In order to approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the
broker or dealer must:
o obtain financial information and investment experience objectives
of the person; and
o make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny
stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient
knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of
evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.
The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny
stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Commission relating to the penny
stock market, which, in highlight form:
o sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the
suitability determination; and
o that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement
from the investor prior to the transaction.
Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities
subject to the "penny stock" rules. This may make it more difficult for
investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value
of our stock.
Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in
both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable
to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations
for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases
of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be
sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account
and information on the limited market in penny stocks.
Item 3. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (collectively the
"Certifying Officers") maintain a system of disclosure controls and procedures
that is designed to provide reasonable assurance that information, which is
required to be disclosed, is accumulated and communicated to management timely.
Under the supervision and with the participation of management, the Certifying
Officers evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our
disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule [13a-14(c)/15d-14(c)]
under the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2004. Based upon that evaluation,
the Certifying Officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures
are effective in timely alerting them to material information relative to our
company required to be disclosed in our periodic filings with the SEC.
(b) Changes in internal controls.
Our Certifying Officers have indicated that there were no significant changes in
our internal controls or other factors that could significantly affect such
controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation, and there were no such
control actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
26
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
Except for the following, we are currently not a party to any material legal
proceedings.
o In October 2003, a stockholder alleging investment fraud filed a claim
in the Civil Court of the City of New York seeking damages in the
amount of approximately $48,000;
o In April 2003, a stockholder alleging investment fraud filed a claim
in the Supreme Court of Nassau County seeking damages in the amount of
$25,000 plus interest. The plaintiff has withdrawn his claim but may
commence this action at a future point in time; and
o On July 20, 2004, the Company filed a complaint In the Circuit Court
of the 11th Judicial Circuit in and for Miami-Dade County, Florida
against Knightsbridge Holdings, LLC, Advantage Fund I, LLC, Triple
Crown Consulting Co., Phoenix Capital Partners, LLC, Churchill
Investments, Inc., Alyce B. Schreiber, Robert Press, Benjamin Kaplan,
Newbridge Securities Corporation and Anslow & Jacklin, LLP, the
Company's former attorneys. The Company is seeking relief deemed
appropriate by the court and to establish a constructive trust over
all securities held by the defendants and all proceeds from the sale
of such securities. The Company is also seeking to rescind the Letter
Agreement entered with Knightsbridge Holdings, LLC. In its complaint,
the Company alleged fraudulent inducement, breach of contract,
conspiracy and breach of fiduciary duty.
o We have recently received a Notice of Motion seeking a default
judgment and attorneys' fees in connection with a complaint filed by
AKW Holdings, LLC against our company in the Supreme Court of the
State of New York - County of Rockland Index #2693/04. AKW Holdings,
LLC is seeking unpaid rents of approximately $160,000 and attorneys'
fees. As of the date hereof, we have no knowledge as to whether a
default judgment has been entered by the Supreme Court of the State of
New York - County of Rockland against our company. We believe this
lawsuit is baseless and without merit and intend to vigorously defend
this lawsuit.
Management believes that the resolution of these claims will not have a material
effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.
Item 2. Changes in Securities.
In July 2004, the Company issued 500,000 shares of common stock to Isaac
Weinhouse in consideration for consulting services.
* All of the above offerings and sales were deemed to be exempt under Rule 506
of Regulation D and Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. No
advertising or general solicitation was employed in offering the securities. The
offerings and sales were made to a limited number of persons, all of whom were
accredited investors, business associates of PowerChannel or executive officers
of PowerChannel, and transfer was restricted by PowerChannel in accordance with
the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933. In addition to representations
by the above-referenced persons, we have made independent determinations that
all of the above-referenced persons were accredited or sophisticated investors,
and that they were capable of analyzing the merits and risks of their
investment, and that they understood the speculative nature of their investment.
Furthermore, all of the above-referenced persons were provided with access to
our Securities and Exchange Commission filings.
