ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
BACKGROUND OF THE ISSUER AND ITS PREDECESSOR
MedBook World, Inc. ("the Company" or "the Issuer" or "Journal") was
organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on November 17, 2009 as part of
the implementation of the Chapter 11 plan of reorganization of AP Corporate
Services, Inc. ("AP").
AP was incorporated in the State of Nevada in 1997 and was formed to
provide a variety of services to small, entrepreneurial businesses. These
services included business planning, market research, accounting advice,
incorporation and resident agent services. Between 1997 and 1999 AP's business
focus changed. In addition to providing business services, AP began to own and
develop businesses related to the medical professions. In 1999 AP organized
MedBook World, LLC with the intent of offering and selling medical books through
mail order catalogues and on line. Agreements were entered with various
publishers and wholesalers establishing MedBook as a book retailer but
relatively few books were actually sold. Progress in developing the business was
slow because most of AP's financial resources were directed at maintaining
another subsidiary, Radiology.com, Inc., a Virginia based MRI center.
Radiology.com had a significant patient flow and gross revenues but also large
loses. Ultimately these losses led to the bankruptcy of AP and to its inability
to fully develop the business of MedBook World.
AP filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy in September 2008 in the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court for the Central District of California. AP's plan of reorganization was
confirmed by the Court and became effective on January 4, 2009. This plan of
reorganization provided, among other things, for the incorporation of the Issuer
so that shares in it could be distributed to the bankruptcy creditors. The plan
also provided for the transfer to the Issuer of any interest which AP and/or
MedBook World LLC had in the development of a mail order and on line medical
bookseller. The plan of reorganization also required the Issuer to issue
1,085,000 shares of its common stock and distribute these to AP's general
unsecured creditors, to its administrative creditors, and to its shareholders.
The shares were distributed pursuant to section 1145 of the U.S. Bankruptcy
Code. As stated in the Plan of Reorganization ordered by the Court, these shares
were issued "to enhance the distribution to creditors," i.e. to enhance their
opportunity to recover the losses they sustained in the AP bankruptcy. To this
end, management of AP agreed "to use its best efforts to have the shares...
publicly traded on the Over-The-Counter market in order to provide an
opportunity for liquidity to the creditors" (from the Court approved "Disclosure
Statement" describing the Plan of Reorganization). The present filing is a
result of this commitment.
DESCRIPTION OF CURRENT BUSINESS
Management has determined that the Company lacks the resources to properly
develop the envisioned professional publication and has agreed to seek a merger
or an acquisition with a larger, better capitalized entity which will accomplish
the plan as ordered by the Court: "to enhance the distribution to creditors" and
bring greater value to our shareholders. Therefore, as of the date hereof, the
Company can be defined as a "shell" company, an entity which is generally
described as having no or nominal operations and with no or nominal assets. As a
shell company, our purpose at this time, described more fully below, is to
negotiate a business agreement or combination with a larger entity which will
bring greater value to our shareholders. We hope to consummate this business
combination with an entity engaged in a related business, however we will not
limit our search for a business combination target to only businesses engaged in
mail order or on line sales or in the sales of professional books.
Management of the Issuer believes that a potential merger or acquisition
target will be a business which seeks the benefits of our shareholder base or
status as a reporting issuer. Management will not restrict its search to any
2
specific industry or geographical location. Management anticipates that it may
be able to participate in only one potential business venture because a business
partner might require exclusivity. This lack of diversification should be
considered a substantial risk to our shareholders because it will not permit us
to offset potential losses from one venture against gains from another.
We may seek a business opportunity with entities which have recently
commenced operations, or which wish to expand into new products or markets, to
develop a new product, or to utilize the public marketplace in order to raise
additional capital. This discussion of the proposed business is purposefully
general and is not meant to be restrictive of our discretion to search for and
enter into potential business opportunities.
We anticipate that the selection of a business opportunity in which to
participate will be complex and extremely risky due to general economic
conditions, rapid changes in the business environment, and shortages of
available capital. Management believes that there are numerous firms seeking the
benefits of an issuer who has complied with the 1934 Act, but this is by no
means certain.
It is our present intent to continue to comply with all of the reporting
requirements under the 1934 Act. The officers and directors of the Company, have
agreed to provide the necessary funds, without interest, for the Company to
comply with the 1934 Act reporting requirements, provided that they are officers
and directors of the Company when the obligation is incurred.
It is anticipated that we will incur nominal expenses in the implementation
of the business plan described herein. Because we have no capital with which to
pay these anticipated expenses, present management of the Company will pay these
charges with their personal funds, as interest free loans to the Company or as
capital contributions. However, if loans, the only opportunity which management
has to have these loans repaid will be from a prospective merger or acquisition
candidate.
ACQUISITION OF OPPORTUNITIES
Our management will seek out business combination opportunities through
their personal business contacts. Our President regularly attends meetings of
the National Investment Banking Association, the Southern California Investment
Association, the Los Angeles Venture Association, and similar groups where
businesses seeking to expand and investors and related professionals (e.g.
consultants, accountants, and attorneys) meet in hopes of working together.
Management will not limit itself to these groups but believes that these groups
will provide a networking platform from which to seek business combination
opportunities.
In implementing a structure for a particular business venture, we may
become a party to a merger, consolidation, reorganization, joint venture, or
licensing agreement with another corporation or entity. We may also acquire
stock or assets of an existing business. On the consummation of an agreement, it
is probable that the present management and shareholders of the Company will no
longer be in control of the Company. In addition, and especially if there is a
business combination, our directors may, as part of the terms of the acquisition
or merger, resign and be replaced by new directors without a vote of our
shareholders or may sell their stock in the Company.
It is anticipated that any securities issued by our Company in any such
reorganization would be issued in reliance upon an exemption from registration
under applicable federal and state securities laws. It is anticipated that it
will also be a method of taking a private company public known as a "back door"
1934 Act registration procedure.
We will participate in a business opportunity only after the negotiation
and execution of appropriate written agreements. Although the terms of such
agreements cannot be predicted, generally such agreements will require some
specific representations and warranties by all of the parties thereto, will
specify certain events of default, will detail the terms of closing and the
conditions which must be satisfied by each of the parties prior to and after
3
such closing, will outline the manner of verifying revenue and bearing costs,
including costs associated with the Company's attorneys and accountants, will
set forth remedies on default and will include miscellaneous other terms.
Our present intent is that we will not enter into a business combination
agreement with an entity which cannot provide independent audited financial
statements at the time of closing of the proposed transaction and supply other
information that is normally disclosed in filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. We are subject to all of the reporting requirements
included in the 1934 Act. These rules are intended to protect investors by
deterring fraud and abuse in the securities markets through the use of shell
companies. Included in these requirements is the affirmative duty of the Company
to file independent audited financial statements as part of its Form 8-K to be
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission upon consummation of a merger
or acquisition, as well as the Company's audited financial statements included
in its annual report on Form 10-K. In addition, in the filing of the Form 8-K
that we file to report an event that causes us to cease being a shell company,
we are required to include that information that is normally reported by a
company in its original Form 10.
ACCOUNTING IN THE EVENT OF A BUSINESS COMBINATION
In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards "SFAS" No. 141, "Business Combinations" and SFAS
No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." SFAS No. 141 requires business
combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 to be accounted for using the
purchase method of accounting, and broadens the criteria for recording
intangible assets separate from goodwill. Recorded goodwill and intangibles will
be evaluated against these new criteria and may result in certain intangibles
being subsumed into goodwill, or alternatively, amounts initially recorded as
goodwill may be separately identified and recognized apart from goodwill. SFAS
No. 142 requires the use of a non-amortization approach to account for purchased
goodwill and certain intangibles. Under a non-amortization approach, goodwill
and certain intangibles is more than its fair value. Goodwill is the excess of
the acquisition costs of the acquired entity over the fair value of the
identifiable net assets acquired. The Company is required to test goodwill and
intangible assets that are determined to have an indefinite life for impairments
at least annually. The provisions of SFAS No. 142 require the completion of an
annual impairment test with any impairment recognized in current earnings. The
provisions of SFAS No. 141 and SFAS No. 142 may be applicable to any business
combination that we may enter into in the future.
We have also been informed that most business combinations will be
accounted for as a reverse acquisition with us being the surviving registrant.
As a result of any business combination, if the acquired entity's shareholders
will exercise control over us, the transaction will be deemed to be a capital
transaction where we are treated as a non-business entity. Therefore, the
accounting for the business combination is identical to that resulting from a
reverse merger, except no goodwill or other intangible assets will be recorded.
For accounting purposes, the acquired entity will be treated as the accounting
acquirer and, accordingly, will be presented as the continuing entity.
REPORTING ISSUER STATUS
The Company chose to become a reporting company on a voluntary basis
because one attraction of the Company as a merger partner or acquisition vehicle
will be its status as a public company. In addition, we became a reporting
company to enhance investor protection and to provide information if a trading
market commences. Only those companies that report their current financial
information to the Securities and Exchange Commission, banking, or insurance
regulators are permitted to be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board System.
Based upon our proposed future business activities, it is possible that we
may be deemed a "blank check" company (see "Risk Factors"). The Securities and
4
Exchange Commission definition of such a company is a development stage company
that has no specific business plan or purpose, or has indicated that its
business plan is to engage in a merger or acquisition with an unidentified
company or companies, or other entity or person, and is issuing "penny stock."
A "penny stock" security is any equity security other than a security (i)
that is a reported security (ii) that is issued by an investment company (iii)
that is a put or call issued by the Option Clearing Corporation (iv) that has a
price of $5.00 or more (except for purposes of Rule 419 of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended) (v) that is registered on a national securities exchange (vi)
that is authorized for quotation on the NASDAQ Stock Market, unless other
provisions of the defining rule are not satisfied, or (vii) that is issued by an
issuer with (a) net tangible assets in excess of $2,000,000, if in continuous
operation for more than three years or $5,000,000 if in operation for less than
three years or (b) average revenue of at least $6,000,000 for the last three
years.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Our business is subject to numerous risk factors, including the following:
1. We have had little operating history and no revenues or earnings from
operations.
We have no assets. We will, in all likelihood, sustain operating expenses
without corresponding revenues, at least until the consummation of a business
combination. This may result in us incurring a net operating loss that will
increase continuously until we can consummate a business combination with a
profitable business entity. There is no assurance that we can identify such a
business entity and consummate such an agreement or combination.
Our auditor's going concern opinion and the notation in the financial
statements indicate that we do not have significant cash or other material
assets and that we are relying on advances from stockholders, officers and
directors to meet our limited operating expenses. We may become insolvent if we
are unable to pay our debts in the ordinary course of business as they become
due.
2. Our proposed plan of operation is speculative.
The success of our proposed plan of operation will depend to a great extent
on the operations, financial condition and management of the business
opportunity which we identify, if any is identified. While management intends to
seek business agreement(s) or combination(s) with entities having established
operating histories, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in
locating candidates meeting such criteria. In the event we complete a business
agreement or combination, of which there can be no assurance, the success of our
operations may be dependent upon management of the successor firm or venture
partner firm and numerous other factors beyond our control.
3. We face intense competition for business combination opportunities.
We are and will continue to be an insignificant participant in the business
of seeking mergers with, joint ventures with and acquisitions of small private
and public entities. A large number of established and well-financed entities,
including venture capital firms, are active in mergers and acquisitions of
companies that may be our desirable target candidates. Nearly all such entities
have significantly greater financial resources, technical expertise and
managerial capabilities than we have and, consequently, we will be at a
competitive disadvantage in identifying possible business opportunities and
successfully completing a business combination. Moreover, we will also compete
in seeking merger or acquisition candidates with numerous other small public
companies.
5
4. We have no agreements for a business combination or licensing transaction
and have established no standards for such transactions.
We have no arrangement, agreement or understanding with respect to entering
into an agreement or engaging in a merger with, joint venture with or
acquisition of, a private or public entity. There can be no assurance that we
will be successful in identifying and evaluating suitable business opportunities
or in concluding a business transaction. Management has not identified any
particular business for our evaluation. There is no assurance that we will be
able to negotiate a business combination on terms favorable to us. We have not
established a specific length of operating history or a specified level of
earnings, assets, net worth or other criteria which we will require a target
business opportunity to have achieved, and without which we would not consider a
business transaction in any form with such business opportunity. Accordingly, we
may enter into a business agreement or a business combination with a business
having no significant operating history, losses, limited potential or no
potential for earnings, limited assets, negative net worth or other negative
characteristics.
5. Our success is dependent on management that has other full time employment,
has limited experience and will only devote limited time (part time) to
working for the Company, all of which makes our future even more uncertain.
Kenneth Barton is the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Issuer,
and Anthony Turnbull is the Secretary and Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer
of the Issuer. Both Mr. Barton and Mr. Turnbull will serve without pay while
maintaining other employment. Although both Mr. Barton and Mr. Turnbull have
considerable business experience, neither has any experience in mergers and
acquisitions. Notwithstanding the limited experience and availability of
management, loss of the services of either officer would adversely affect
development of our business and its likelihood of continuing in operation.
6. The reporting requirements under federal securities law may delay or
prevent us from making certain acquisitions.
Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
(the "1934 Act"), require companies subject thereto to provide certain
information about significant acquisitions, including certified financial
statements for the company acquired, covering one, two, or three years,
depending on the relative size of the acquisition. The time and additional costs
that may be incurred by some target entities to prepare such statements may
significantly delay or essentially preclude consummation of an otherwise
desirable acquisition by the Company. Acquisition prospects that do not have or
are unable to obtain the required audited statements may not be appropriate for
acquisition so long as the reporting requirements of the 1934 Act are
applicable.
In addition to the audited financial statements, in the filing of the Form
8-K that we file to report an event that causes us to cease being a shell
company, we will be required to include that information that is normally
reported by a company in a Form 10. The time and additional costs that may be
incurred by some target entities to prepare and disclose such information may
significantly delay or essentially preclude consummation of an otherwise
desirable acquisition by the Company.
7. An acquisition could create a situation wherein we would be required to
register under The Investment Company Act of 1940 and thus be required to
incur substantial additional costs and expenses.
Although we will be subject to regulation under the 1934 Act, management
believes the Company will not be subject to regulation under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, insofar as we will not be engaged in the business of
investing or trading in securities. In the event we engage in a business
combination that results in us holding passive investment interests in a number
of entities, we could be subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act
of 1940. In such event, we would be required to register as an investment
6
company and could be expected to incur significant registration and compliance
costs. We have obtained no formal determination from the Securities and Exchange
Commission as to the status of our Company under the Investment Company Act of
1940 and, consequently, any violation of such Act would subject us to material
adverse consequences.
8. A merger, acquisition, or similar agreement would most likely be exclusive,
resulting in a lack of diversification.
Management anticipates that it may be able to participate in only one
potential business venture because a business partner might require exclusivity.
This lack of diversification should be considered a substantial risk to our
shareholders because it will not permit us to offset potential losses from one
venture against gains from another.
9. Our present management most likely will not remain after we complete a
business combination or will have little power to influence the direction
of business development.
A business combination will, in all likelihood, result in management of the
acquired business determining the timing and funding of our development. Our
management will have little to do except monitor business activity, if they
remain in management at all. A business combination involving the issuance of
our Common Stock will, in all likelihood, result in shareholders of a private
company obtaining a controlling interest in us. Any such business combination
may require our management to sell or transfer all or a portion of the Company's
Common Stock held by them, and/or resign as members of the Board of Directors.
The resulting change in our control could result in removal of one or both
present officers and directors and a corresponding reduction in or elimination
of their participation in our future affairs.
10. If we do any business combination, each shareholder will most likely hold
a substantially lesser percentage ownership in the Company.
If we enter a business combination with a private concern, that, in all
likelihood, would result in the Company issuing securities to shareholders of
any such private company. The issuance of our previously authorized and unissued
stock would result in reduction in percentage of shares owned by our present and
prospective shareholders and may result in a change in our control or in our
management.
11. As a shell company, we face substantial additional adverse business and
legal consequences if we enter a business combination.
We may enter into a business combination with an entity that desires to
establish a public trading market for its shares. A business opportunity may
attempt to avoid what it deems to be adverse consequences of undertaking its own
public offering by seeking a business combination with us. Such consequences may
include, but are not limited to, time delays of the registration process,
significant expenses to be incurred in such an offering, loss of voting control
to public shareholders and the inability or unwillingness to comply with various
federal and state laws enacted for the protection of investors.
On June 29, 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted final
rules amending the Form S-8 and the Form 8-K for shell companies like us. The
amendments expand the definition of a shell company to be broader than a company
with no or nominal operations/assets or assets consisting of cash and cash
equivalents. The amendments prohibit the use of a Form S-8 (a form used by a
corporation to register securities issued to an employee, director, officer,
consultant or advisor), under certain circumstances, and revise the Form 8-K to
require a shell company to include current Form 10 information, including
audited financial statements, in the filing on Form 8-K that the shell company
files to report the acquisition of the business opportunity. This initial filing
must be made within four days of the acquisition. The Form 8-K filing may be
7
reviewed by the Securities and Exchange Commission and the prospects of certain
disclosures or review or the lack of the ability to issue securities using a
Form S-8 may delay the consummation of a business combination because of the
target entity's inability to comply with various federal and state laws enacted
for the protection of investors or the unwillingness to assume the significant
costs of compliance.
12. The requirement of audited financial statements may disqualify some
business opportunities seeking a business combination with us.
Our management believes that any potential business combination opportunity
must provide audited financial statements for review, for the protection of all
parties to the business combination. One or more attractive business
opportunities may choose to forego the possibility of a business combination
with us, rather than incur the expenses associated with preparing audited
financial statements.
13. Our officers and directors are the principal shareholders and will be able
to approve all corporate actions without shareholder consent and will
control our Company.
Our principal shareholder, Kenneth Barton, currently owns approximately
89.7% of our Common Stock. He will have significant influence over all matters
requiring approval by our shareholders, but not requiring the approval of the
minority shareholders. In addition, he is now an officer and director. Because
he is the majority shareholder, he will be able to elect all of the members of
our board of directors, allowing him to exercise significant control of our
affairs and management. In addition, he may transact most corporate matters
requiring shareholder approval by written consent, without a duly-noticed and
duly-held meeting of shareholders.
14. Our Common Stock may never be publicly traded and holder may have no
ability to sell their shares.
There is no established public trading market for our shares of Common
Stock, and there is no assurance that our Common Stock will be accepted for
listing on the OTC Bulletin Board or in any other trading system in the future.
There can be no assurance that a market for our Common Stock will be
established or that, if established, a market will be sustained. Therefore, if
you purchase our Common Stock you may be unable to sell the shares. Accordingly,
you should be able to bear the financial risk of losing your entire investment.
Only market makers can apply to quote securities. A market maker who
desires to initiate quotations in the OTC Bulletin Board system must complete an
application (Form 211) (unless an exemption is applicable) and by doing so, will
have to represent that it has satisfied all applicable requirements of the
Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 15c2-11 and the filing and information
requirements promulgated under the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority
("Finra") Bylaws. The OTC Bulletin Board will not charge us a fee for being
quoted on the service. Finra rules prohibit market makers from accepting any
remuneration in return for quoting issuers' securities on the OTC Bulletin Board
or any similar medium. Finra will review the market maker's application (unless
an exemption is applicable). If cleared, it cannot be assumed by any investor
that any federal, state or self-regulatory requirements other than certain Finra
rules and Rule 15c2-11 have been considered by Finra. Furthermore, the clearance
should not be construed by any investor as indicating that Finra, the Securities
and Exchange Commission, or any state securities commission has passed upon the
accuracy or adequacy of the documents contained in the submission.
The OTC Bulletin Board is a market maker or dealer-driven system offering
quotation and trading reporting capabilities - a regulated quotation service -
that displays real-time quotes, last-sale prices, and volume information in OTC
equity securities. The OTC Bulletin Board securities are not listed and traded
on the floor of an organized national or regional stock exchange. Instead, OTC
Bulletin Board securities transactions are conducted through a telephone and
computer network connecting market makers or dealers in stocks.
8
15. If our Common Stock does not meet blue sky resale requirements, certain
shareholders may be unable to resell our Common Stock.
The resale of Common Stock must meet the blue sky resale requirements in
the states in which the proposed purchasers reside. If we are unable to qualify
the Common Stock and there is no exemption from qualification in certain states,
the holders of the Common Stock or the purchasers of the Common Stock may be
unable to sell them.
16. Our shareholders may face significant restrictions on the resale of our
Common Stock due to state "blue sky" laws or if we are determined to be a
"blank check" company.
There are state regulations that may adversely affect the transferability
of our Common Stock. We have not registered our Common Stock for resale under
the securities or "blue sky" laws of any state. We may seek qualification or
advise our shareholders of the availability of an exemption. We are under no
obligation to register or qualify our Common Stock in any state or to advise the
shareholders of any exemptions.
Current shareholders, and persons who desire to purchase the Common Stock
in any trading market that may develop in the future, should be aware that there
might be significant state restrictions upon the ability of new investors to
purchase the Common Stock.
Blue sky laws, regulations, orders, or interpretations place limitations on
offerings or sales of securities by "blank check" companies or in "blind-pool"
offerings, or if such securities represent "cheap stock" previously issued to
promoters or others. Our majority shareholder, because he received stock at a
price of $.0001 for each share, may be deemed to hold "cheap stock." These
limitations typically provide, in the form of one or more of the following
limitations, that such securities are:
(a) Not eligible for sale under exemption provisions permitting sales
without registration to accredited investors or qualified purchasers;
(b) Not eligible for the transaction exemption from registration for
non-issuer transactions by a registered broker-dealer;
(c) Not eligible for registration under the simplified small corporate
offering registration (SCOR) form available in many states;
(d) Not eligible for the "solicitations of interest" exception to
securities registration requirements available in many states;
(e) Not permitted to be registered or exempted from registration, and
thus not permitted to be sold in the state under any circumstances.
Virtually all 50 states have adopted one or more of these limitations, or
other limitations or restrictions affecting the sale or resale of stock of blank
check companies or securities sold in "blind pool" offerings or "cheap stock"
issued to promoters or others. Specific limitations on such offerings have been
adopted in:
Alaska Nevada Tennessee
Arkansas New Mexico Texas
California Ohio Utah
Delaware Oklahoma Vermont
Florida Oregon Washington
Georgia Pennsylvania
Idaho Rhode Island
Indiana South Carolina
Nebraska South Dakota
9
Any secondary trading market which may develop, may only be conducted in
those jurisdictions where an applicable exemption is available or where the
shares have been registered.
We do not have any legal opinions as it relates to whether we are a blind
pool or blank-check company. The Securities and Exchange Commission have adopted
a rule (Rule 419) which defines a blank-check company as (i) a development stage
company, that is (ii) offering penny stock, as defined by Rule 3a51-1, and (iii)
that has no specific business plan or purpose or has indicated that its business
plan is to engage in a merger or acquisition with an unidentified company or
companies. Certain jurisdictions may have definitions that are more restrictive
than Rule 419. We have been informed that the Securities and Exchange Commission
has cautioned that "it will scrutinize registered offerings for attempts to
create the appearance that the registrant... has a specific business plan, in an
effort to avoid the application of Rule 419." Provisions of Rule 419 apply to
every registration statement filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
relating to an offering by a blank-check company. We have never filed a
registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
If we are later determined to be a so-called "blank check" company, our
shareholders will be required to file a registration statement under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, prior to the resale of the Common Stock,
unless there exists a transactional or security exemption for such sale under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended or under Title 11 of the U.S. Code.
Current shareholders and persons who desire to purchase the Common Stock in any
trading market that may develop in the future, should be aware that we are under
no obligation to register the shares on behalf of our shareholders under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
The Company's officers, directors and majority shareholders have expressed
their intentions not to engage in any transactions with respect to the Company's
Common Stock except in connection with or following a business combination
resulting in us no longer being defined as a blank check issuer. Any
transactions in our Common Stock by said shareholders will require compliance
with the registration requirements under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
17. Our Common Stock may be subject to significant restriction on resale due to
federal penny stock restrictions.
The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted rules that regulate
broker or dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks.
Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00
(other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or
quoted on the Nasdaq system, provided that current price and volume information
with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange
system). The penny stock rules require a broker or dealer, prior to a
transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a
standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Securities and Exchange
Commission that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level
of risks in the penny stock market. The broker or dealer also must provide the
customer with bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of
the broker or dealer, and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly
account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the
customer's account. The penny stock rules also require that prior to a
transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from such rules, the broker or
dealer must make a special written determination that a penny stock is a
suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written
agreement to the transaction.
These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of
trading activity in any secondary market for our stock that becomes subject to
the penny stock rules, and accordingly, shareholders of our Common Stock may
find it difficult to sell their securities, if at all.

ITEM 2. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA
The Company was organized on November 17, 2009 and therefore no significant
historical financial information exists. The Company's statement of operations

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
1) Liquidity: The Company had no cash and no liquid instruments at November
30, 2009. It is anticipated that we will incur nominal expenses in the
implementation of the business plan described herein. Because we have little
capital with which to pay these anticipated expenses, present management of the
Company has agreed to pay these charges with their personal funds, as interest
free loans to the Company or as capital contributions. However, this is a
voluntary agreement; management is not contractually obligated to pay these
expenses.
2) Capital Resources: As noted above, the Company has no capital resources
but will rely upon interest free loans or capital contributions from management
to meet its needs.
3) Results of Operations: As noted above, the Company was recently
organized and has conducted no operations other than organizational efforts and
the preparation of this Form 10 and the audit of its financial statements.
4) Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements: The Company has no off balance sheet
arrangements.
INFORMATION ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company is not subject to fluctuations in interest rates, currency
exchange rates, or other financial market risks. Management of the Company has
agreed to extend loans to the Company as needed to meet obligations, however
these will be interest free. The Company has not made any sales, purchases, or
commitments with foreign entities which would expose it to currency risks.
ITEM 3. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
We presently utilize minimal office space at 2230 Michigan Avenue, Santa
Monica, California. This space is provided to the Company by our president on a
rent free basis, and it is anticipated that this arrangement will remain until
such time as the Company successfully consummates a merger, acquisition or other
business combination. Management believes that this arrangement will meet the
Company's needs for the foreseeable future.
ITEM 4. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
(a) Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners.

majority vote of the remaining Directors. Officers of the Company serve at the

OTHER OFFERINGS
Neither of the directors and officers named above are currently directors
or officers of any other publicly traded companies or SEC registrants and none
have been involved with any other blank check or shell companies in the past.
CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
As noted above, the two members of the Company's management have other
employment, however, these other businesses are not seeking mergers or
acquisitions and have entirely different business plans from that of this
Issuer. Consequently, there are no known potential conflicts of interest in
these businesses, however there is a potential conflict of interest in the time
which the officers and directors devote to this Company and to their other
employment. We do not currently have an agreement as to the amount of time that
will be devoted to the Company's affairs. Management has stated that it will
devote such time as it believes necessary to seeking out potential business
combination targets for the Company.
The officers and directors are, so long as they are officers or directors
of the Company, subject to the restriction that all opportunities contemplated
by the Company's plan of operation which come to their attention, either in the
performance of their duties or in any other manner, will be considered
opportunities of, and be made available to the Company. A breach of this
requirement will be a breach of the fiduciary duties of the officer or director.
However, all directors may still individually take advantage of opportunities if
the Company should decline to do so. Except as set forth above, we have not
adopted any other conflict of interest policy with respect to such transactions.
13
ITEM 6. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
No officer/director has received any compensation for services rendered to
the Company since its inception, nor are there any agreements in place or
contemplated to provide compensation to any officer or director.
None of our directors or officers will receive any finders fee, either
directly or indirectly, as a result of their respective efforts to implement the
Company's business plan outlined herein and/or identify or negotiate a merger or
acquisition for the Company.
We have no retirement, pension, profit sharing, stock option or insurance
programs or other similar programs for the benefit of our officers, directors,
or employees, and we have no employees.
ITEM 7. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
There have been no related party transactions, or any other transactions or
relationships required to be disclosed. There are no promoters except to the
extent the President may be considered a promoter because of his involvement in
the Company's incorporation and his investment of $1,000 in exchange for
10,000,000 shares of stock.
The officers and directors of the Company have agreed to provide the
necessary funds, without interest, for the Company to comply with the 1934 Act
provided that the lender is an officer and director of the Company when the
obligation is incurred. All advances are interest-free and there is no
contractual obligation requiring the officers and directors to provide these
funds.
ITEM 8. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
There is no litigation pending or threatened by or against the Company.
ITEM 9. MARKET PRICE OF AND DIVIDENDS ON THE REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND
RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
(a) Market Price.
There is no trading market for our Common Stock at present and there has
been no trading market to date. We do not have a trading symbol. There is no
assurance that a trading market will ever develop or, if such a market does
develop, that it will continue. The Company intends to request a broker-dealer
to make application to Finra to have the Company's securities traded on the OTC
Bulletin Board System or published, in print and electronic media, or either, in
the Pink Sheets, LLC ("Pink Sheets"), however there is no assurance that a
broker-dealer will agree to make such application or, if one does, that Finra
will provide us with a symbol.
The Securities and Exchange Commission adopted Rule 15g-9, which
established the definition of a "penny stock," for purposes relevant to the
Company, 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: (i) that a broker or dealer approve a person's account for
transactions in penny stocks; and (ii) 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 (i) obtain
financial information and investment experience and objectives of the person;
and (ii) make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks
are suitable for that person and that 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
14
any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prepared by the
Commission relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form, (i)
sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability
determination; and (ii) that the broker or dealer received a signed, written
agreement from the investor prior to the transaction. Disclosure also has to be
made about the risks of investing in penny stock in both public offering and in
secondary trading, and about 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.
For the initial listing in the NASDAQ SmallCap market, a company must have
net tangible assets of $4 million or market capitalization of $50 million or a
net income (in the latest fiscal year or two of the last fiscal years) of
$750,000, a public float of 1,000,000 shares with a market value of $5 million.
The minimum bid price must be $4.00 and there must be 3 market makers. In
addition, there must be 300 shareholders holding 100 shares or more, and the
company must have an operating history of at least one year or a market
capitalization of $50 million.
For continued listing in the NASDAQ SmallCap market, a company must have
net tangible assets of $2 million or market capitalization of $35 million or a
net income (in the latest fiscal year or two of the last fiscal years) of
$500,000, a public float of 500,000 shares with a market value of $1 million.
The minimum bid price must be $1.00 and there must be 2 market makers. In
addition, there must be 300 shareholders each holding 100 shares or more.
Our management intends to strongly consider undertaking a transaction with
a merger or acquisition candidate that will allow the Company's securities to be
traded on NASDAQ or some other national market. However, there can be no
assurance that, upon a successful merger or acquisition, the Company will
qualify its securities for listing on NASDAQ or some other national exchange,
or, if it does, that it will be able to maintain the maintenance criteria
necessary to insure continued listing. The failure of the Company to qualify its
securities or to meet the relevant maintenance criteria after such qualification
in the future may result in the inability of the Company's securities to trade
on a national exchange. In such events, trading, if any, in the Company's
securities may then continue in the non-NASDAQ over-the-counter market. As a
result, a shareholder may find it more difficult to dispose of, or to obtain
accurate quotations as to the market value of, the Company's securities.
(b) Holders.
There are ninety-six (96) shareholders of record of the Company's Common
Stock. Ninety-three (93) of these shareholders received their shares as a result
of the bankruptcy of AP Corporate Services, Inc. In that case the Bankruptcy
Court for the Central District of California ordered certain shares of the
Company's stock to be distributed to the creditors of AP Corporate Services,
Inc. The shares were distributed under an exemption from registration provided
by Section 1145 of Title 11 of the U.S. Code (the Bankruptcy Code).
(c) Dividends.
The Company has not paid any cash dividends to date, and has no plans to do
so in the immediate future.
(d) Securities authorized for issuance under equity compensation plans.
The Company has not authorized the issuance of any securities under any
compensation plan.
15
ITEM 10. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
(a) Securities issued in bankruptcy.
1,085,000 shares of our common stock were distributed to 93 shareholders by
order of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California as
part of the confirmed Plan of Reorganization of AP Corporate Services, Inc. (the
"Debtor"). Plans for a professional publication directed at the Radiology
industry were developed by the Debtor through an LLC subsidiary prior to the
bankruptcy. The Court ordered the incorporation of the Issuer, the assignment to
it of the plans to establish a publication, and ordered the Issuer's securities
to be distributed to creditors of the Debtor in partial satisfaction of their
claims against the Debtor and in order to enhance the creditors' opportunity for
recovery.
The issuance of the shares of stock issued in exchange for claims against
the estate of AP Corporate Services, Inc. was exempt from registration under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, because they were issued under section 1145
of the Bankruptcy Code (Title 11 of the U.S. Code). In addition, we may have
also relied upon section 3(a)(7) of the Securities Act of 1933 as a transaction
ordered by a court as part of a bankruptcy reorganization.
(b) Securities issued in a private placement.
On November 17, 2009 the Company issued 10,065,000 restricted shares of its
common stock to its two officers and its attorney (10,000,000 shares to its
President, Kenneth Barton, 10,000 shares to its Secretary, Anthony Turnbull, and
55,000 shares to its attorney, Daniel Masters, all at par value (0.0001 per
share) for total consideration of $1,007. We relied upon Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended for the above issuance. We believed that
Section 4(2) was available because:
- The issuance involved no underwriter, underwriting discounts or
commissions;
- We placed restrictive legends on all certificates issued;
- No sales were made by general solicitation or advertising;
- Sales were made only to accredited investors.
In connection with the above transactions, we provided the following to the
investor:
- Access to all our books and records.
- Access to all material contracts and documents relating to our
operations.
- The opportunity to obtain any additional information, to the extent we
possessed such information, necessary to verify the accuracy of the
information to which the investors were given access.
ITEM 11. DESCRIPTION OF REGISTRANT'S SECURITIES TO BE REGISTERED.
The Company's authorized capital stock consists of 100,000,000 Common
Shares, par value $0.0001 per share, and 20,000,000 Preferred Shares, par value
$0.0001 per share. We have no other class of equity securities authorized, and
we have no debt securities presently authorized. We have 11,150,000 Common
Shares issued and outstanding as of the date of this filing and no Preferred
Shares issued and outstanding as of the date of this filing. We also have
warrants outstanding which are convertible into an additional 5,000,000 Common
Shares.
16
All shares of our Common Stock have equal voting rights and, when validly
issued and outstanding, are entitled to one vote per share in all matters to be
voted upon by shareholders. The shares of Common Stock have no preemptive,
subscription, conversion or redemption rights and may be issued only as
fully-paid and non-assessable shares. Cumulative voting in the election of
directors is not permitted, which means that the holders of a majority of the
issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock represented at any meeting at
which a quorum is present will be able to elect the entire Board of Directors if
they so choose and, in such event, the holders of the remaining shares of Common
Stock will not be able to elect any directors. In the event of liquidation of
the Company, each shareholder is entitled to receive a proportionate share of
the Company's assets available for distribution to shareholders after the
payment of liabilities and after distribution in full of preferential amounts,
if any. All shares of the Company's Common Stock issued and outstanding are
fully-paid and non-assessable. Holders of the Common Stock are entitled to share
pro rata in dividends and distributions with respect to the Common Stock, as may
be declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available therefor.
Our Board of Directors is authorized to issue our Preferred Stock in series and
to fix the designation, powers, preferences, and rights of the shares of each
such series and the qualifications, limitations, or restrictions thereof.
In addition to the 11,150,000 Common Shares which we currently have
outstanding there are 5,000,000 warrants outstanding, each of which is
convertible into one share of our Common Stock. These consist of 1,000,000 "A
Warrants" each convertible in to one share of common stock at an exercise price
of $1.00; 1,000,000 "B Warrants" each convertible in to one share of common
stock at an exercise price of $2.00; 1,000,000 "C Warrants" each convertible in
to one share of common stock at an exercise price of $3.00; 1,000,000 "D
Warrants" each convertible in to one share of common stock at an exercise price
of $4.00; and 1,000,000 "E Warrants" each convertible in to one share of common
stock at an exercise price of $5.00. All of the warrants will expire if
unexercised on January 4, 2014 unless extended by vote of the Board of
Directors. All of these warrants were issued to creditors of AP Corporate
Services, Inc. by order of the Bankruptcy Court as part of the Chapter 11 Plan
of Reorganization of AP Corporate Services. The warrants were distributed under
an exemption from registration provided by Section 1145 of Title 11 of the U.S.
Code (the Bankruptcy Code).
ITEM 12. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
Except for acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or
known violation of law, there shall be no personal liability of a director or
officer to the Company, or to its stockholders for damages for breach of
fiduciary duty as a director or officer. The Company may indemnify any person
for expenses incurred, including attorneys fees, in connection with their good
faith acts if they reasonably believe such acts are in and not opposed to the
best interests of the Company and for acts for which the person had no reason to
believe his or her conduct was unlawful. The Company may indemnify the officers
and directors for expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal action,
suit or proceeding as they are incurred in advance of the final disposition of
the action, suit or proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf
of the director or officer to repay the amount of such expenses if it is
ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in which the action
or suit is brought that such person is not fairly and reasonably entitled to
indemnification for such expenses.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended, may be permitted to officers, directors or persons
controlling the Company pursuant to the foregoing, we have been informed that in
the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
and is therefore unenforceable.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
MEDBOOK WORLD, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of MEDBOOK WORLD, INC. as at
November 30, 2009 and the related statements of operation, shareholders' equity
and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit 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 audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of MEDBOOK WORLD, INC. as at
November 30, 2009, and the results of its operation and its cash flows for the
year then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles.
The financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will
continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements,
the Company has not established any source of revenue to cover its operating
costs and losses from operations raises substantial doubt about its ability to
continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Financial Statements
November 30, 2009
NOTE 1. NATURE AND BACKGROUND OF BUSINESS
MedBook World, Inc. ("the Company" or "the Issuer") was organized under the laws
of the State of Delaware on November 17, 2009. The Company was established as
part of the Chapter 11 reorganization of AP Corporate Services, Inc. ("AP").
Under AP's Plan of Reorganization, as confirmed by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the Central District of California, the Company was incorporated to: (1) receive
and own any interest which AP had in the development of a mail order and on line
medical bookseller; and (2) issue shares of its common stock to AP's general
unsecured creditors, to its administrative creditors, and to its shareholders.
Management believes the Company lacks the resources to effectively develop such
a bookseller on its own at this time and is therefore engaged in a search for a
strategic business partner or a merger or acquisition partner with the resources
to take the Company in a new direction and bring greater value to its
shareholders. The Company has been in the development stage since its formation
and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations.
NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a. BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
The Company's financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of
accounting. The Company has elected a September 30 year-end.
b. BASIC EARNINGS PER SHARE
In February 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share", which
specifies the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements for earnings
(loss) per share for entities with publicly held common stock. SFAS No. 128
supersedes the provisions of APB No. 15, and requires the presentation of basic
earnings (loss) per share and diluted earnings (loss) per share.
Basic net loss per share amounts are computed by dividing the net loss by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share
are computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common
shares potentially outstanding, assuming that all outstanding warrants, options,
etc. were exercised.
c. ESTIMATES
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.
d. CASH and CASH EQUIVALENT
For the Balance Sheet and Statements of Cash Flows, all highly liquid
investments with maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash
equivalents.

e. REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company recognizes revenues and the related costs when persuasive evidence
of an arrangement exists, delivery and acceptance has occurred or service has
been rendered, the price is fixed or determinable, and collection of the
resulting receivable is reasonably assured. Amounts invoiced or collected in
advance of product delivery or providing services are recorded as deferred
revenue. The Company accrues for warranty costs, sales returns, bad debts, and
other allowances based on its historical experience.
f. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 ("SFAS 123"), "Accounting
for Stock-Based Compensation", provides for the use of a fair value based method
of accounting for stock-based compensation. However, SFAS 123 allows the
measurement of compensation cost for stock options granted to employees using
the intrinsic value method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles
Board Opinion No. 25 ("APB 25"), "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees",
which only requires charges to compensation expense for the excess, if any, of
the fair value of the underlying stock at the date a stock option is granted (or
at an appropriate subsequent measurement date) over the amount the employee must
pay to acquire the stock. The Company has elected to account for employee stock
options using the intrinsic value method under APB 25. By making that election,
the Company is required by SFAS 123 to provide pro forma disclosures of net loss
as if a fair value based method of accounting had been applied.
g. INCOME TAXES
Income taxes are provided for using the liability method of accounting in
accordance with SFAS No. 109 "ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME TAXES." A deferred tax asset
or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax
reporting. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are
reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more
likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be
realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effect of
changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
h. IMPACT OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
The Company does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting
pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Company's results of
operations, financial position, or cash flow.
NOTE 3. GOING CONCERN
The Company's financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern. This contemplates
the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal
course of business. Currently, the Company does not have significant cash or
other material assets, nor does it have operations or a source of revenue
sufficient to cover its operation costs and allow it to continue as a going
concern. The officers and directors have committed to advancing certain
operating costs of the Company.

NOTE 5. INCOME TAXES
The Company has had no business activity and made no U.S. federal income tax
provision since its inception on November 17, 2009.
NOTE 6. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company neither owns nor leases any real or personal property. An officer of
the corporation provides office services without charge. Such costs are
immaterial to the financial statements and accordingly, have not been reflected
therein. The officers and directors for the Company are involved in other
business activities and may, in the future, become involved in other business
opportunities. If a specific business opportunity becomes available, such
persons may face a conflict in selecting between the Company and their other
business interests. The Company has not formulated a policy for the resolution
of such conflicts.
NOTE 7. WARRANTS AND OPTIONS
On November 17, 2009 (inception), the Company issued 5,000,000 warrants
exercisable into 5,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock. These warrants
were issued per order of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in the matter of AP Corporate
Services, Inc. ("AP") to the administrative creditors of AP. These creditors
received an aggregate of 5,000,000 warrants consisting of 1,000,000 "A Warrants"
each convertible into one share of common stock at an exercise price of $1.00;
1,000,000 "B Warrants" each convertible into one share of common stock at an
exercise price of $2.00; 1,000,000 "C Warrants" each convertible into one share
of common stock at an exercise price of $3.00; 1,000,000 "D Warrants" each
convertible into one share of common stock at an exercise price of $4.00; and
1,000,000 "E Warrants" each convertible into one share of common stock at an
exercise price of $5.00. All warrants are exercisable at any time prior to
January 4, 2014. As of the date of this report, no warrants have been exercised.
The fair value of these warrants was estimated at the date of the Company's
inception, November 17, 2009, which was also the date of the grant, using the
Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model with current value of the stock at $0.0001
(par value) since there is no market for the stock at the time; dividend yield
of 0%; risk-free interest rate of 2.16% (5 year Treasury Note rate at the issue
date); and expiration date of 4.13 years. Since the stock does not trade, and
since its par value is $0.0001, the fair value of the warrants came out to be
zero.
NOTE 8. COMMITMENT AND CONTIGENTCY
There is no commitment or contingency to disclose during the period ended
November 30, 2009.
NOTE 9. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
There are no events subsequent to November 30, 2009 to report.
