ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
Business Development.
TBC Global News Network, Inc. (“Company”) was formed in Delaware in June 1997 under the name SyCo Comics and Distribution Inc. and is the successor to a limited partnership named SyCo Comics and Distribution formed under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia on January 15, 1997, by Sy Robert Picon and William Spears, the co-founders and principal stockholders of the Company. On February 17, 1999, SyCo Comics and Distribution Inc. changed its name to Syconet.com, Inc. With the filing of Articles of Merger with the Nevada Secretary of State on April 12, 2002, the Company was redomiciled from Delaware to Nevada, and its number of authorized common shares was increased to 500,000,000 (see Exhibits 2.1 and 3.1).
On November 21, 2002, the Company amended its articles of incorporation changing its name to Point Group Holdings, Incorporated (see Exhibit 3.2). On March 5, 2003, the Company again amended the articles of incorporation so that (a) an increase in the authorized capital stock of the Company can be approved by the board of directors without shareholder consent; and (b) a decrease in the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company (a reverse split) can be approved by the board of directors without shareholder consent (see Exhibit 3.3). On July 11, 2003, the Company amended its articles of incorporation to increase the number of authorized common shares to 900,000,000 (see Exhibit 3.4). On January 26, 2004, the name of the Company was changed to “GameZnFlix, Inc” by the filing of amended articles of incorporation (see Exhibit 3.5).
On December 16, 2004, the Company amended the articles of incorporation to increase the authorized common stock of the Company to 2,000,000,000 shares (see Exhibit 3.6). On July 19, 2005, the articles of incorporation were further amended to increase the number of authorized common shares to 4,000,000,000 (see Exhibit 3.7), and on March 21, 2006 increased to 25,000,000,000 (see Exhibit 3.8). On September 6, 2007, a 1,000 to 1 reverse split of common stock took place. On December 31, 2007, 100,000,000 shares of Series B common stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock were created by an amendment to the articles of incorporation, along with reducing the authorized common stock to 5,000,000,000 shares (see Exhibit 3.9). On April 9, 2009, a 10,000 to 1 reverse split of the Company’s common stock became effective.
During the period of July 2002 to September 2002, the Company acquired AmCorp Group, Inc., a Nevada Corporation, and Naturally Safe Technologies, Inc. also a Nevada corporation. In February 2005, AmCorp amended its articles of incorporation, changing its name to GameZnFlix Racing and Merchandising, Inc. AmCorp provided services to companies that desired to be listed on the OTCBB and Naturally Safe held patents on a product that assisted Christmas trees in retaining water. Both these companies have ceased operations. In September 2003, the Company acquired Veegeez.com, LLC, a California limited liability company. This company has ceased operations.

On April 30, 2009, the Company entered into an Acquisition Agreement with TBC Today, Inc., a Nevada corporation, where the Company acquired all of the outstanding common stock of TBC. Under this agreement, all 11,000,000 shares of TBC Today, Inc. common stock issued and outstanding will be acquired by the Company for 11,000,000 shares of restricted common stock of the Company. On August 14, 2009, the Company issued 11,000,000 restricted shares of common stock to the shareholders of TBC Today, Inc. in completing this acquisition. This company has ceased operations.
On May 7, 2009, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to Articles of Incorporation with the Nevada Secretary of State (see Exhibit 3.10). This amendment changed the name of the Company to TBC Global News Network, Inc. This corporate action had previously been approved by consent of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company.
On March 19, 2010, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with Sterling Yacht Sales, Inc. and it stockholders, Glenn W. McMachen, Sr., and Arlene McMachen (see Exhibit 2.2). Under the terms of this agreement, the Company agreed to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Sterling. In return, the Company agreed to issue restricted shares of Company common stock to Sterling’s stockholders in an aggregate amount resulting in an 82.5% ownership of the Company by those individuals.
On September 1, 2014, the Company determined that Sterling and its stockholders materially breached this agreement and therefore the agreement is null and void. Therefore, Sterling is not a subsidiary of the Company and the Company has no further obligations under this agreement.
On April 27, 2015, a 3,000 to 1 reverse split of the Company’s common stock became effective.
On September 3, 2015, the Company completed an Acquisition Agreement under which the Company acquired all of the equity interests of Stimulating Software, LLC, a Florida limited liability company formed on November 5, 2014 (“Stimulating Software”), the acquisition of all the common stock of Inner Four, Inc., a Florida corporation formed on June 19, 2007 (“Inner Four”), and all of the common and preferred stock of Play Celebrity Games, Inc., a Delaware corporation formed on June 5, 2015 (“Play Celebrity”). This acquisition was accomplished through a payment by the Company of common stock and preferred stock. This Acquisition is providing assets and revenues to the Company as Inner Four has had revenues and operations from 2007 to the present. See Exhibit 2.3.
Under the Acquisition Agreement, the Company paid to John Swartz, the owner of all the outstanding shares of Inner Four and Stimulating Software, 2,575 restricted shares of Company Series A preferred stock. Mr. Swartz also entered into a consulting agreement with the Company under which he is paid 3,307,420 currently restricted shares of Company common stock. As the consideration for the sale of the Play Celebrity stock to the Company, the Company issued to Team AJ and Chasin an aggregate of 1,500 restricted shares of Series A preferred stock of the Company, and 27,429,000 restricted shares of the Company common stock. A portion of these shares was transferred to AF Trust Company, a Florida corporation, and Kaptiva Group, LLC, a Florida limited liability company. All of the shares of common and preferred stock have registration rights as set forth in a Registration Rights Agreement.
3 |
Under the Acquisition Agreement, the Company has the option to purchase other companies owned by Mr. Swartz, namely Navy Duck, LLC, a Florida limited liability company, Ocean Red, LLC, a Florida limited liability company, and Purple Penguin.com, Inc., a Florida corporation. Should the Company exercise this option it will pay Mr. Swartz the sum of $1,500,000, with certain adjustments as specified in the Agreement.
As part of this Acquisition, the Company entered into a Design and License Agreement with Navy Duck, Ocean Red, and Purple Penguin.com, Inc.
Current Business of the Company.
The acquisition of Inner Four, Stimulating Software and Play Celebrity leads to a business model that allows for the development of new rebranded games. Stimulating Software is a more free to play versus Inner Four which is a pay to play business model. Stimulating Software and Inner Four (both referred to as “GameCo”) have over 500 active and inactive mobile games and have over 35,000,000 installs on mobile devices. The distinction between the companies is the free to play or commonly referred to as “freemium” and the pay to play which is when users need to purchase the mobile application in the their respective app store.
Play Celebrity brings agreements to create mobile games for artists, celebrities and athletes. Play Celebrity has partnered with Top Fan to create exciting products for the fans of these celebrities. The combined 500 mobile games is a starting point for the business model on a go forward basis. The GameCo mobile apps combined with the celebrities, artists and athletes that are apart of Play Celebrity makes for a business model that allows the company to build new applications by using the games that are already developed. An example of this is the Kim Kardashian application launched in 2014. This application was previously titled twice before finally becoming a hit game featuring Kim Kardashian (commonly referred to as “Re-Skinning”). The positive side of re-skinning an existing game is significant. As an example, by resigning you save time, development costs are significantly reduced, testing the product and removing bugs is eliminated or significantly reduced and time to get to market is accelerated from months to days.
The combined company will take the 500 existing games and begin the process of re skinning these games for artists and celebrities. The Company is geared to have Purple Penguin (owned by the previous owner of these 3 companies) perform the re-skinning. The Company has established a license agreement with Purple Penguin that allows the company to pay $500 as an advance on royalties (20% royalty will be paid to Purple Penguin) for Purple Penguin to create the new re-skinned game and prepare it for launch.
4 |
The marketing plan for the company involves two key ingredients. The first ingredient is to market new celebrity games to our existing user base. The second key ingredient is to have the artist, celebrity or athlete market the product to their fan base using social networks and other available media. This marketing plan is designed to keep the Company’s marketing expenses marginal and at the same time allow the Company to continue to expand its base of users.
The combined companies currently have over 1,000,000 monthly active users or installs. The majority of these installs come from new products under stimulating software and from legacy installations from Inner Four. The vast majority of the games is available in the iTunes store today and can be ported to Google, Amazon and other distribution points. This store expansion is key to the Company’s 12-month strategy. It is the Company’s goal to have as many games available on as many available platforms by the end of 2015 into early 2016. Further, the Company will begin creating and releasing new re-skinned games in the near future.
The Company sees tremendous competition in the gaming application space. However, the Company believes there is little competition in the celebrity space. The Company believes the primary reasons for the lack of competition in this space is the difficulty to reach the celebrity, the significant costs and time to create a new game and the ability for companies to raise the capital without demonstrating a proof of business model at scale. The Company believes it is ahead of the current competition as it has reduced the costs of creating the underlying games and has signed agreements to reach the artists, celebrities and athletes and finally we have a large library of games that currently generate revenue.
The business will incorporate many new strategies in attracting new users, retaining new users and expanding its core platform. Some of these strategies will include the use of licensed music, videos and other content. These strategies we believe allow us to distinguish our celebrity games from other games in the market place. The current marketplace does not have a lot of licensed music content application or a lot of licensed video content either. The Company also intends to work closely with new partners to develop a social network that underlies our platform. With so many games and with a large current monthly user base, the Company believes it can establish a core social network for the users to share in their game and fan experiences The Company’s agreement with Top Fan allows for those types of social behaviors to occur.
At the present time, the Company has only one employee, John Fleming.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.
Risks Related to the Business of the Company.
(a) Very Limited Operations During Past Five Years May Affect Ability of Company to Survive.
The Company has had no operations from August 2010 to August 2014; prior to that it had a substantial record of revenue-producing operations. Consequently, there is only a limited operating history upon which to base an assumption that the Company will be able to achieve its business plans. In addition, the Company has limited assets. As a result, there can be no assurance that the Company will generate significant revenues in the future; and there can be no assurance that the Company will operate at a profitable level. If the Company is unable to obtain or acquire a business and generate sufficient revenues so that it can profitably operate, the Company’s business plan will not succeed. Accordingly, the Company’s prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered in connection with the establishment of a new business.
5 |
The Company incurred a net loss of $7,308 for the year ended December 31, 2013, net income of $3,096,662 (due solely to a debt write-off) for the year ended December 31, 2014, and a net loss of $73,862 for the six months ended June 30, 2015. As of June 30, 2015, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $74,448,788. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
(b) The Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm Has Expressed Substantial Doubt About the Company’s ability to Continue as a Going Concern, Which May Hinder the Ability to Obtain Future Financing.
In its report dated August 5, 2015, the Company’s independent auditor stated that the financial statements for the two years ended December 31, 2014 were prepared assuming that the Company would continue as a going concern. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is an issue raised as a result of cash flow constraint, an accumulated deficit, and recurring losses from operations. The Company continues to experience net losses. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is subject to the ability to execute a business combination and thereafter to generate a profit and/or obtain necessary funding from outside sources, including obtaining additional funding from the sale of the Company's securities, increasing sales or obtaining loans from various financial institutions where possible. The 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.
(c) The Company Has Issued and in the Future May Issue More Shares in an Acquisition, Which May Result in Substantial Dilution.
Under the Acquisition Agreement dated September 3, 2015, the Company issued a total of 43,355,680 shares of common stock. Under this Agreement, the Company is obligated to issue additional shares to the 4 companies controlled by John Acunto so that they collectively own 70% of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company. The Company will make the determination in the near future as to when to issue these additional shares of common stock. Under the Agreement, the Company also issued a total of 4,725 shares of Series A preferred stock. Each share of convertible preferred stock is convertible, at the option of the holder, at any time into the number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Company common stock as determined by dividing 1,000 by the amount that is a 10% discount to the average of the closing price per share of the Company’s common stock on the exchange on which this common stock is traded over the 10 trading day period ending immediately prior to the conversion date. These issuances result in substantial dilution to existing stockholders of the Company.
6 |
Any further acquisition effected by the Company may also result in the issuance of additional securities without stockholder approval and may result in substantial dilution in the percentage of the Company’s common stock held by its then existing stockholders. Moreover, the common stock issued in any such merger or acquisition transaction may be valued on an arbitrary or non-arm’s-length basis by our management, resulting in an additional reduction in the percentage of common stock held by the Company’s then existing stockholders. The Company’s Board of Directors has the power to issue any or all of such authorized but unissued shares without stockholder approval. To the extent that additional shares of common stock or preferred stock are issued in connection with a business combination or otherwise, dilution to the interests of its stockholders will occur and the rights of the holders of common stock might be materially and adversely affected.
(d) Games Could Become Obsolete Which Could Affect Revenue.
The games we own and operate could become obsolete by the release of new technologies in the smart phone space.
(e) Games Could be Removed by Resellers Which Could Affect Revenue.
The games the Company now owns and operates could also be removed of its resellers such as Apple’s iTunes, Google’s Google Play store, or Amazon. These companies have the right to remove any game for any reason they deem fit. The Company would not have the capital to sustain a litigation in the event the Company believes its games were removed for invalid reasons.
(f) Account Could be Suspended Which Could Affect Company Operations.
The Company’s App resellers such as Apple, Google and Amazon could suspend the Company’s entire account if it submitted an inappropriate application. This could cause significant customer service issues and impact our revenue stream. The main cause if the automation system used to approve applications. The Company intends to submit celebrity applications that use the name and likeness of famous individuals. This can cause the automated system to reject the application and cause all of our applications in that account to be suspended until the application is approved by a human being at the reseller.
(g) Game and Application Business is Very Competitive.
The game and application business has exploded over the past seven years, especially since the launch of the smart phone. Today, there are over 1,000,000 game and application developers worldwide. The Company believes all of these companies could potentially replicate the Company’s business model in some way, shape or form. The application space is very crowded and according to www.statista.com there are over 5,000,000 mobile applications with over 1.8 billion users. The Company currently owns several hundred applications which represents a fraction of the number of applications and therefore makes getting our applications noticed and attracting users very challenging.
7 |
With so many applications and companies generating over 1 billion dollars in annual revenues, it can be challenging to acquire new users. The average cost of a new user ranges from $2.50 to as high as $11.00. This cost to acquire a user can contribute to a drain of the Company’s cash flow and capital reserves. Further, the Company believes that its system of marketing to existing users reduces its costs. In the event that the Company’s application distribution points exclude outside advertising within the applications its ability to reduce user acquisition cost could be significantly higher.
(h) Celebrity Agreements Could be Uncertain.
The Company will sign agreements to provide applications and games to celebrities. These celebrities can pose a risk to the company in several areas. First, the celebrity could withdraw the Company’s right to use their re likeness and image due to movie rights, music holder rights or other rights that their agreements with us would allow them to rescind there agreement with us to use their likeness and image. Second, the celebrity could be frustrated by their fans reaction to the game and claim the game is affecting their brand or their likeness value and the marketplace and could terminate the agreement and the use of their likeness and image in the game. Last, the celebrity could have a series of bad press, commit a crime or do something that may injure our reputation causing us to remove the availability of the game despite it’s popularity or revenue.
(i) No Assurance of Funding.
There is no guarantee that funding sources, or any others, will be available in the future, or that they will be available on favorable terms. In addition, this funding amount may not be adequate for the Company to fully implement its business plan. Thus, the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on additional sources of capital and the success of the Company’s business plan. Regardless of whether the Company’s cash assets prove to be inadequate to meet the Company’s operational needs, the Company might seek to compensate providers of services by issuance of stock in lieu of cash.
If funding is insufficient at any time in the future, the Company may not be able to take advantage of business opportunities or respond to competitive pressures, or may be required to reduce the scope of its planned product development and marketing efforts, any of which could have a negative impact on its business and operating results. In addition, insufficient funding may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, which could require the company to:
· | curtail operations significantly; |
· | sell assets; |
· | seek arrangements with strategic partners or other parties that may require the Company to relinquish significant rights to products, technologies or markets; or |
8 |
· | explore other strategic alternatives including a merger or sale of the Company. |
To the extent that the Company raises additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of such securities may result in dilution to existing stockholders. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of debt securities, these securities may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to holders of common stock and the terms of such debt could impose restrictions on the Company’s operations. Regardless of whether the Company’s access to financing proves to be inadequate to meet the Company’s operational needs, the Company may seek to compensate providers of services by issuance of stock in lieu of cash, which may also result in dilution to existing stockholders.
(j) The Company May Be Subject to Certain Tax Consequences in Its Business, Which May Increase the Cost of Doing Business.
The Company may not be able to structure its acquisition to result in tax-free treatment for the companies or their stockholders, which could deter third parties from entering into certain business combinations with the Company or result in being taxed on consideration received in a transaction. Currently, a transaction may be structured so as to result in tax-free treatment to both companies, as prescribed by various federal and state tax provisions. The Company intends to structure any business combination so as to minimize the federal and state tax consequences to both us and the target entity; however, the Company cannot guarantee that the business combination will meet the statutory requirements of a tax-free reorganization or that the parties will obtain the intended tax-free treatment upon a transfer of stock or assets. A non-qualifying reorganization could result in the imposition of both federal and state taxes that may have an adverse effect on both parties to the transaction.
(k) The Company May Be Subject to Further Government Regulation That Would Adversely Affect Its Operations.
Although the Company will be subject to the reporting requirements under the Exchange Act, management believes it will not be subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), since it will not be engaged in the business of investing or trading in securities. If we engage in business combinations that result in our holding passive investment interests in a number of entities, the Company could be subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act. If so, the Company would be required to register as an investment company and could be expected to incur significant registration and compliance costs. The Company has obtained no formal determination from the SEC as to our status under the Investment Company Act and, consequently, violation of the Investment Company Act could subject us to material adverse consequences.
9 |
(l) The Company’s Success Is Largely Dependent on the Abilities of Its Personnel.
The Company’s success may be dependent upon the hiring of qualified administrative personnel. None of the Company’s officers and directors has an employment agreement with the Company; therefore, there can be no assurance that these personnel will remain employed by the Company after the termination of such agreements. Should any of these individuals cease to be affiliated with the Company for any reason before qualified replacements could be found, there could be material adverse effects on the Company’s business and prospects in that replacement personnel may not understand the proposed business of the company. Also, the Company does not carry any key person insurance on any of the officers and directors of the Company.
(m) Limitations on Liability, and Indemnification, of Directors and Officers May Result in Expenditures by Company.
The Company’s articles of incorporation include provisions to eliminate, to the fullest extent permitted by the Nevada Revised Statutes as in effect from time to time, the personal liability of directors of the Company for monetary damages arising from a breach of their fiduciary duties as directors. The bylaws of the Company also include provisions to the effect that the Company may indemnify any director, officer, or employee. Any limitation on the liability of any director, or indemnification of directors, officer, or employees, could result in substantial expenditures being made by the Company in covering any liability of such persons or in indemnifying them.
Risks Relating to the Company’s Common Stock.
(a) The Company’s Common Stock May Be Traded Infrequently and In Low Volumes, Which May Negatively Affect the Ability to Sell Shares.
The shares of the Company’s common stock may trade infrequently and in low volumes on the OTC Markets Group, meaning that the number of persons interested in purchasing our common shares at or near bid prices at any given time may be relatively small or non-existent. This situation may be attributable to a number of factors, including the fact that we are a small company that is relatively unknown to stock analysts, stock brokers, institutional investors and others in the investment community who can generate or influence sales volume, and that even if we came to the attention of such institutionally oriented persons, they tend to be risk-averse in this environment and would be reluctant to follow an early stage company such as ours or purchase or recommend the purchase of our shares until such time as we became more seasoned and viable. As a consequence, there may be periods of several days or more when trading activity in the Company’s shares is minimal or non-existent, as compared to a seasoned issuer which has a large and steady volume of trading activity that will generally support continuous sales without an adverse effect on share price. The Company cannot give you any assurance that a broader or more active public trading market for our common shares will develop or be sustained. Due to these conditions, we can give you no assurance that you will be able to sell your shares at or near bid prices or at all if you need money or otherwise desire to liquidate your shares. Further, institutional and other investors may have investment guidelines that restrict or prohibit investing in securities traded in the over-the-counter market. These factors may have an adverse impact on the trading and price of our securities, and could even result in the loss by investors of all or part of their investment.
10 |
(b) The Company’s Common Stock Price May Be Volatile.
The future trading price of the Company’s common stock may fluctuate substantially. The price of the common stock may be higher or lower than the price you pay for your shares, depending on many factors, some of which are beyond the Company’s control and may not be directly related to its operating performance. These factors include the following:
· | price and volume fluctuations in the overall stock market from time to time; |
· | significant volatility in the market price and trading volume of securities of business development companies or other financial services companies; |
· | changes in regulatory policies with respect to business development companies; |
· | actual or anticipated changes in earnings or fluctuations in operating results; |
· | general economic conditions and trends; |
· | loss of a major funding source; or |
· | departures of key personnel. |
Due to the continued potential volatility of the stock price, the Company may be the target of securities litigation in the future. Securities litigation could result in substantial costs and divert management’s attention and resources from the business.
(c) Absence of Cash Dividends May Affect Investment Value of the Company’s Stock.
The board of directors does not anticipate paying cash dividends on the common stock for the foreseeable future and intends to retain any future earnings to finance the growth of the Company’s business. Payment of dividends, if any, will depend, among other factors, on earnings, capital requirements and the general operating and financial conditions of the Company as well as legal limitations on the payment of dividends out of paid-in capital.
(d) No Assurance of a Public Trading Market and Risk of Low Priced Securities May Affect Market Value of the Company’s Stock.
The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) has adopted a number of rules to regulate “penny stocks.” Such rules include Rule 3a51-1 and Rules 15g-1 through 15g-9 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Because the Company’s securities may constitute “penny stocks” within the meaning of the rules (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, largely traded in the Over the Counter Bulletin Board or the Pink Sheets), the rules would apply to the Company and its common stock.
11 |
The SEC has adopted Rule 15g-9 which established sales practice requirements for certain low price securities. Unless the transaction is exempt, it shall be unlawful for a broker or dealer to sell a penny stock to, or to effect the purchase of a penny stock by, any person unless prior to the transaction:
· | the broker or dealer has approved the person’s account for transactions in penny stock pursuant to this rule; and |
· | the broker or dealer has received from the person 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 stock, the broker or dealer must:
· | obtain from the person information concerning the person’s financial situation, investment experience, and investment objectives; |
· | reasonably determine that transactions in penny stock are suitable for that person, and that the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters that the person reasonably may be expected to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stock; |
· | deliver to the person a written statement setting forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the determination stating in a highlighted format that it is unlawful for the broker or dealer to affect a transaction in penny stock unless the broker or dealer has received, prior to the transaction, a written agreement to the transaction from the person, stating in a highlighted format immediately preceding the customer signature line that the broker or dealer is required to provide the person with the written statement, and the person should not sign and return the written statement to the broker or dealer if it does not accurately reflect the person’s financial situation, investment experience, and investment objectives; and |
· | receive from the person a manually signed and dated copy of the written statement. |
It is also required that disclosure be made as to the risks of investing in penny stock and the commissions payable to the broker-dealer, as well as current price quotations and the remedies and rights available in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Statements, on a monthly basis, must be sent to the investor listing recent prices for the penny stock and information on the limited market.
There has been a very limited public market for the Company’s common stock. The Company intends to have a market maker file an application on the Company’s behalf with the Over the Counter Bulletin Board in order to make a market in the Company’s common stock. However, until this happens, if the market maker is successful with such application, and even thereafter, an investor may find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of the Company’s securities. The regulations governing penny stocks, as set forth above, sometimes limit the ability of broker-dealers to sell the Company’s common stock and thus, ultimately, the ability of the investors to sell their securities in the secondary market.
12 |
Potential stockholders of the Company should also be aware that, according to SEC Release No. 34-29093, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include:
· | control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer; |
· | manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases; |
· | “boiler room” practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons; |
· | excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differential and markups by selling broker-dealers; and |
· | the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the resulting inevitable collapse of those prices and with consequent investor losses. |
(e) Failure To Remain Current In Reporting Requirements Could Result in the Company Being Delisting From The Over The Counter Bulletin Board.
Companies that trade on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board (such as the Company) must be reporting issuers under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and must be current in their reports under Section 13, in order to maintain price quotation privileges on the Bulletin Board. When the Company becomes listed on that market, if it fails to remain current in the Company’s reporting requirements, the Company could be delisted from the Over the Counter Bulletin Board.
In addition, the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., which operates the Bulletin Board, has adopted a change to its Eligibility Rule. The change makes those Over the Counter Bulletin Board issuers that are cited for filing delinquency in its Form 10-K’s/Form 10-Q’s three times in a 24-month period and those Bulletin Board issuers removed for failure to file such reports two times in a 24-month period ineligible for quotation on the Bulletin Board for a period of one year. Under this rule, a company filing with the extension time set forth in a Notice of Late Filing (Form 12b-25) is not considered late. This rule does not apply to a company’s Current Reports on Form 8-K (but failure to timely file a Form 8-K could have other ramifications for the Company).
As a result of these rules, the market liquidity for the Company’s common stock could be severely adversely affected by limiting the ability of broker-dealers to sell the Company’s securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in the secondary market.
13 |
(f) Failure to Maintain Market Makers May Affect Value of the Company’s Stock.
If the Company is unable to maintain National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. member broker/dealers as market makers, the liquidity of the common stock could be impaired, not only in the number of shares of common stock which could be bought and sold, but also through possible delays in the timing of transactions, and lower prices for the common stock than might otherwise prevail. Furthermore, the lack of market makers could result in persons being unable to buy or sell shares of the common stock on any secondary market. There can be no assurance the Company will be able to maintain such market makers.
(g) Issuance of Common Stock in Exchange for Services or to Repay Debt Would Dilute Proportionate Ownership and Voting Rights, and Could Have a Negative Impact on the Market Price of the Company’s Stock.
The Company’s board of directors may issue shares of common stock to pay for debt or services, without further approval by its stockholders based upon such factors as the board of directors may deem relevant at that time. It is likely that the Company will issue securities to pay for services and reduce debt in the future. It is possible that the Company will issue additional shares of common stock under circumstances it may deem appropriate at the time.
(h) If The Company is Unable to Raise Necessary Additional Capital as Needed, Its Business May Fail or its Operating Results and the Stock Price May Be Materially Adversely Affected.
To secure additional needed financing, the Company may need to borrow money or sell more securities, which may reduce the value of its outstanding common stock. Selling additional stock, either privately or publicly, would dilute the equity interests of the Company’s stockholders. In addition, if the Company raises additional funds by issuing equity securities, the holders of the new equity securities may have rights superior to those of the holders of shares of common stock, which could adversely affect the market price and the voting power of shares of its common stock. If the Company raises additional funds by issuing debt securities, the holders of these debt securities may have some rights senior to those of the holders of shares of common stock, and the terms of these debt securities could impose restrictions on operations and create a significant interest expense for the Company.
(i) No Cumulative Voting May Affect Ability of Some Stockholders to Influence Mangement of Company.
Holders of the shares of common stock of the Company are not entitled to accumulate their votes for the election of directors or otherwise. Accordingly, the holders of a majority of the shares present at a meeting of stockholders will be able to elect all of the directors of the Company, and the minority stockholders will not be able to elect a representative to the Company’s board of directors.
14 |
(j) Shares Eligible For Future Sale Could Affect the Price of the Common Stock.
All of the shares currently held by management and the major stockholders have been issued in reliance on the private placement exemption under the Securities Act of 1933. Such shares will not be available for sale in the open market without separate registration except in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933. In general, under Rule 144 a person (or persons whose shares are aggregated) who has beneficially owned shares acquired in a non-public transaction for at least one year, including persons who may be deemed affiliates of the Company (as that term is defined under that rule) would be entitled to sell within any three-month period a number of shares that does not exceed 1% of the then outstanding shares of common stock, provided that certain current public information is then available. If a substantial number of the shares owned by these stockholders were sold pursuant to Rule 144 or a registered offering, the market price of the common stock at that time could be adversely affected.
ITEM 2. FINANCIAL INFORMATION.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
The following management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon, and should be read in conjunction with, the Company’s unaudited and audited financial statements and related notes, and the audited and pro forma financial statements of the three companies acquired by the Company, presented in a separate section of this report following Item 15, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Overview.
On September 3, 2015, the Company completed an Acquisition Agreement under which the Company acquired all of the equity interests of Stimulating Software, the acquisition of all the common stock of Inner Four, Inc., and all of the common and preferred stock of Play Celebrity Games, Inc.
The acquisition of Inner Four, Stimulating Software and Play Celebrity leads to a business model that allows for the development of new rebranded games. Stimulating Software is a more free to play versus Inner Four which is a pay to play business model. Stimulating Software is a more free to play versus Inner Four which is a pay to play business model.
Play Celebrity brings agreements to create mobile games for artists, celebrities and athletes. Play Celebrity has partnered with Top Fan to create exciting products for the fans of these celebrities.
The combined company will take the 500 existing games and begin the process of re skinning these games for artists and celebrities. The Company is geared to have Purple Penguin (owned by the previous owner of these 3 companies) perform the re-skinning.
15 |
The business will incorporate many new strategies in attracting new users, retaining new users and expanding its core platform. Some of these strategies will include the use of licensed music, videos and other content. These strategies we believe allow us to distinguish our celebrity games from other games in the market place. The current marketplace does not have a lot of licensed music content application or a lot of licensed video content either. The Company also intends to work closely with new partners to develop a social network that underlies our platform. With so many games and with a large current monthly user base, the Company believes it can establish a core social network for the users to share in their game and fan experiences. The Company’s agreement with Top Fan allows for those types of social behaviors to occur.

The net cash provided by operating activities was $0 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.
Liquidity and Capital Resources.
As of June 30, 2015, the Company had total current assets of $0 and total current liabilities of $249,738, resulting in a working capital deficit of $249,738. The cash and cash equivalents was $0 as of June 30, 2015.
As of December 31, 2014, the Company had total current assets of $0 and total current liabilities of $170,591, resulting in a working capital deficit of $170,591. The cash and cash equivalents was $0 as of December 31, 2014.
The net cash provided by financing activities from a loan (March 2015) was $25,000 for six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2014.
On March 17, 2015, the Company entered into a promissory note with Peter Lambert for a loan of $25,000 that became due on June 15, 2015. The loan carries an interest at the rate of $55 per day. On June 12, 2015, the parties amended this promissory note so that the loan was extended and will accrue interest at $55 per day until this note is paid in full. As of June 30, 2015, there was $5,833 interest accrued on the loan.
The Company’s current cash and cash equivalents balance will not be sufficient to fund its operations for the next twelve months. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern on a longer-term basis will be dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow from operations to meet its obligations on a timely basis, and to obtain additional financing, and ultimately attain profitability. The Company’s continued operations, as well as the implementation of the Company’s business plan will depend upon its ability to raise additional funds through bank borrowings and equity or debt financing.
18 |
Whereas the Company has been successful in the past in raising capital, no assurance can be given that these sources of financing will continue to be available to it and/or that demand for the Company’s common stock will be sufficient to meet its capital needs, or that financing will be available on terms favorable to the Company. If funding is insufficient at any time in the future, the Company may not be able to take advantage of business opportunities or respond to competitive pressures, or may be required to reduce the scope of the Company’s planned product development and marketing efforts, any of which could have a negative impact on its business and operating results. In addition, insufficient funding may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, which could require it to:
· | curtail operations significantly; |
· | sell significant assets; |
· | seek arrangements with strategic partners or other parties that may require the Company to relinquish significant rights to products, technologies or markets; or |
· | explore other strategic alternatives including a merger or sale of the Company. |
To the extent that the Company raises additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of such securities may result in dilution to the Company’s existing stockholders. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of debt securities, these securities may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to holders of common stock and the terms of such debt could impose restrictions on the Company’s operations. Regardless of whether the Company’s cash assets prove to be inadequate to meet its operational needs, the Company may seek to compensate providers of services by issuance of stock in lieu of cash, which may also result in dilution to the Company’s existing stockholders.
Inflation.
The impact of inflation on the Company’s costs and the ability to pass on cost increases to its customers over time is dependent upon market conditions. The Company is not aware of any inflationary pressures that have had any significant impact on its operations over the past quarter and the Company does not anticipate that inflationary factors will have a significant impact on future operations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements.
The Company does not maintain off-balance sheet arrangements nor does it participate in non-exchange traded contracts requiring fair value accounting treatment.

Critical Accounting Policies.
The SEC has issued Financial Reporting Release No. 60, “Cautionary Advice Regarding Disclosure About Critical Accounting Policies” (“FRR 60”), suggesting companies provide additional disclosure and commentary on their most critical accounting policies. In FRR 60, the Commission has defined the most critical accounting policies as the ones that are most important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and operating results, and require management to make its most difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. Based on this definition, the Company’s most critical accounting policies include: (a) use of estimates; and (b) net income (loss) per share. The methods, estimates and judgments the Company uses in applying these most critical accounting policies have a significant impact on the results the Company reports in its financial statements.
(a) | Use of Estimates. |
The preparation of financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates these estimates, including those related to revenue recognition and concentration of credit risk. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that is believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
(b) | Net Income (Loss) Per Share. |
Net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per common share is computed similar to basic loss per common share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.
Forward Looking Statements.
This Form 10 registration statement contains “forward looking statements” within the meaning of Rule 175 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 3b-6 of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intends,” “forecast,” “project,” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. These are statements that relate to future periods and include, but are not limited to, statements as to the Company’s estimates as to the adequacy of its capital resources, its need and ability to obtain additional financing, and its critical accounting policies.
20 |
Forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof. The Company expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect any change in its expectations with regard thereto or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based.

The number of record holders excludes any estimate of the number of beneficial owners of common shares held in street name.
Dividends.
The Company has not declared or paid a cash dividend to stockholders since it was organized. The Board of Directors presently intends to retain any earnings to finance the Company’s operations and does not expect to authorize cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any payment of cash dividends in the future will depend upon the Company’s earnings, capital requirements and other factors.
ITEM 10. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES.
During the past three years, there have been the following sales of securities of the Company:
On September 15, 2015, the Company issued a total of 43,355,680 restricted shares of common stock in connection with the completion of the acquisition of the equity interests of Stimulating Software, LLC, the acquisition of all the common stock of Inner Four, Inc., and all of the common and preferred stock of Play Celebrity Games, Inc. On that date the Company also issued 4,725 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock in connection with that acquisition. All these shares were issued
With respect to these sales of unregistered securities, the Company relied on the exemptive provisions of Rule 506 of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. At all times relevant the securities were offered subject to the following terms and conditions:
· | the sales were made exclusively to sophisticated or accredited investors, as defined in Rule 502; |
· | the purchasers were given the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the terms and conditions of the offering and to obtain any additional information which the Company possessed or could acquire without unreasonable effort or expense that is necessary to verify the accuracy of information furnished; |
· | at a reasonable time prior to the sale of securities, the purchaser were advised of the limitations on resale in the manner contained in Rule 502(d)2; |
· | neither the company nor any person acting on its behalf sold the securities by any form of general solicitation or general advertising; and |
28 |
· | all sales under this offering were made through John Fleming, President and director of the Company. |
No commissions were paid in connection with any of these sales. All share certificates bear a legend restricting their disposition.
Other than these sales, there have been no other sales of securities of the Company during the past three years.
ITEM 11. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES TO BE REGISTERED.
Common Stock.
The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 5,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001. The holders of the common stock:
(a) have equal ratable rights to dividends from funds legally available therefore, when, as, and if declared by the Board of Directors of the Company;
(b) are entitled to share ratably in all of the assets of the Company available for distribution upon winding up of the affairs of the Company; and
(c) are entitled to one non-cumulative vote per share on all matters on which stockholders may vote at all meetings of stockholders.
These securities do not have any of the following rights:
(a) cumulative or special voting rights;
(b) preemptive rights to purchase in new issues of shares;
(c) preference as to dividends or interest;
(d) preference upon liquidation; or
(e) any other special rights or preferences. In addition, the Shares are not convertible into any other security.
There are no restrictions on dividends under any loan or other financing arrangements or otherwise.
29 |
The Company’s authorized but unissued common stock currently consists of 4,955,632,291 shares. One effect of the existence of authorized but unissued capital stock may be to enable the Board of Directors to render more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of the Company by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest, or otherwise, and thereby to protect the continuity of the Company’s management. If, in the due exercise of its fiduciary obligations, for example, the Board of Directors were to determine that a takeover proposal was not in the Company’s best interests, such shares could be issued by the Board of Directors without stockholder approval in one or more private placements or other transactions that might prevent, or render more difficult or costly, completion of the takeover transaction by diluting the voting or other rights of the proposed acquiror or insurgent stockholder or stockholder group, by creating a substantial voting block in institutional or other hands that might undertake to support the position of the incumbent Board of Directors, by effecting an acquisition that might complicate or preclude the takeover, or otherwise.
Series B Common Stock.
The Company has 100,000,000 shares of Series B common stock authorized; none is issued and outstanding
Preferred Stock.
The Company has 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock authorized. Under an Amended Certificate of Designation filed with the Nevada Secretary of State on September 10, 2015, the Company designated Ten Thousand (10,000) shares of undesignated and unissued Preferred Stock as “Series A Convertible Preferred Stock”, par value One Tenth of One Cent ($0.001).
Each share of convertible preferred stock is convertible, at the option of the holder, at any time into the number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Company common stock as determined by dividing 1,000 by the amount that is a 10% discount to the average of the closing price per share of the Company’s common stock on the exchange on which this common stock is traded over the 10 trading day period ending immediately prior to the conversion date. Each share of convertible preferred stock has the right to vote on all matters on which holders of common stock of the Company may vote, and for each share of convertible preferred stock held the holder shall be treated as holding 20 shares of Company common stock.
Each holder of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock may not convert any outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Stock if at the time of such conversion the amount of Common Stock to be issued for the conversion, when added to other shares of common stock owned by the holder of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, or which can be acquired by the holder upon exercise or conversion of any other instrument, would cause that holder to own more than 4.9% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock.
The Company shall pay a yearly dividend, in cash or Common Stock (with the determination to pay in cash or common stock, or a combination of the two, to be made by the Company at its discretion), equal to 4% of the Valuation Price (as defined) of each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, payable quarterly within 30 days after the end of each calendar quarter, and such dividend shall be paid prior to the payment of any dividends on the Company’s common stock. In the event the Company elects to pay a portion or all of the dividends on the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock by issuing shares of common stock, these shares issued as dividends shall be restricted, unregistered shares, and will be subject to the same transfer restrictions that apply to the shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.
30 |
Non-Cumulative Voting.
The holders of shares of common stock of the Company will not have cumulative voting rights, which means that the holders of more than 50% of such outstanding Shares, voting for the election of directors, can elect all of the directors to be elected, if they so choose. In such event, the holders of the remaining Shares will not be able to elect any of the Company’s directors.
Dividends.
The Company does not currently intend to pay cash dividends. Because the Company does not intend to make cash distributions, potential stockholders would need to sell their shares to realize a return on their investment. There can be no assurances of the projected values of the shares, or can there be any guarantees of the success of the Company.
A distribution of revenues will be made only when, in the judgment of the Company’s board of directors, it is in the best interest of the Company’s stockholders to do so. The board of directors will review, among other things, the financial status of the Company and any future cash needs of the Company in making its decision.
Transfer Agent.
The Company has engaged the services of Interwest Transfer Company, Inc., 1981 Murray Holladay Road, Suite 100, Salt Lake City, Utah 84117,to act as transfer agent and registrar for the Company.
ITEM 12. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
The following is a summary of the relevant provisions in the articles of incorporation, bylaws, and Nevada law with regard to limitation of liability and indemnification of officers, directors and employees of the Company.
Limitation of Liability.
Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws.
There are no provisions in the Company’s articles of incorporation or bylaws with regard to liability of a director
Nevada Revised Statutes.
“NRS 78.138 Directors and officers: Exercise of powers; performance of duties; presumptions and considerations; liability to corporation and stockholders.
31 |
(7) Except as otherwise provided in NRS 35.230, a director or officer is not individually liable to the corporation or its stockholders for any damages as a result of any act or failure to act in his capacity as a director or officer unless it is proven that:
(a) His act or failure to act constituted a breach of his fiduciary duties as a director or officer; and
(b) His breach of those duties involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law.”
Indemnification.
Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws.
There are no provisions in the articles of incorporation with regard to indemnification. The bylaws of the Company provide the following with regard to indemnification:
“No director shall be liable to the corporation or any of its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except with respect to (1) a breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (2) acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (3) liability which may be specifically defined by law or (4) a transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit, it being the intention of the foregoing provision to eliminate the liability of the corporation’s directors to the corporation or its stockholders to the fullest extent permitted by law. The corporation shall indemnify to the fullest extent permitted by law each person that such law grants the corporation the power to indemnify.”
Nevada Revised Statutes.
“NRS 78.7502 Discretionary and mandatory indemnification of officers, directors, employees and agents: General provisions.
1. A corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, except an action by or in the right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if he :
(a) Is not liable pursuant to d irectors and officers duty to exercise their powers in good faith and with a view to the interests of the corporation]; or
32 |
(b) Acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, does not, of itself, create a presumption that the person is liable pursuant to or did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, or that, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, he had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.
2. A corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses, including amounts paid in settlement and attorneys’ fees actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of the action or suit if he :
(a) Is not liable pursuant to; or
(b) Acted in good faith and in a manner that he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation.
Indemnification may not be made for any claim, issue or matter as to which such a person has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals therefrom, to be liable to the corporation or for amounts paid in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought or other court of competent jurisdiction determines upon application that in view of all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems proper.
3. To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections 1 and 2, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, the corporation shall indemnify him against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense.”
“NRS 78.751 Authorization required for discretionary indemnification; advancement of expenses; limitation on indemnification and advancement of expenses.
1. Any discretionary indemnification pursuant to NRS 78.7502, unless ordered by a court or advanced pursuant to subsection 2, may be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances. The determination must be made:
33 |
(a) By the stockholders;
(b) By the board of directors by majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding;
(c) If a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding so orders, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion; or
(d) If a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding cannot be obtained, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion.
2. The articles of incorporation, the bylaws or an agreement made by the corporation may provide that the expenses of officers and directors incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding must be paid by the corporation as they are incurred and 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 if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation. The provisions of this subsection do not affect any rights to advancement of expenses to which corporate personnel other than directors or officers may be entitled under any contract or otherwise by law.
3. The indemnification pursuant to NRS 78.7502 and advancement of expenses authorized in or ordered by a court pursuant to this section:
(a) Does not exclude any other rights to which a person seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under the articles of incorporation or any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, for either an action in the person’s official capacity or an action in another capacity while holding office, except that indemnification, unless ordered by a court pursuant to NRS 78.7502 or for the advancement of expenses made pursuant to subsection 2, may not be made to or on behalf of any director or officer if a final adjudication establishes that the director’s or officer’s acts or omissions involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the law and was material to the cause of action. A right to indemnification or to advancement of expenses arising under a provision of the articles of incorporation or any bylaw is not eliminated or impaired by an amendment to such provision after the occurrence of the act or omission that is the subject of the civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding for which indemnification or advancement of expenses is sought, unless the provision in effect at the time of such act or omission explicitly authorizes such elimination or impairment after such action or omission has occurred.
34 |
(b) Continues for a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and inures to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.”
“NRS 78.752 Insurance and other financial arrangements against liability of directors, officers, employees and agents.
(1) A corporation may purchase and maintain insurance or make other financial arrangements on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise for any liability asserted against him and liability and expenses incurred by him in his capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the corporation has the authority to indemnify him against such liability and expenses.
(2) The other financial arrangements made by the corporation pursuant to subsection 1 may include the following:
(a) The creation of a trust fund.
(b) The establishment of a program of self-insurance.
(c) The securing of its obligation of indemnification by granting a security interest or other lien on any assets of the corporation.
(d) The establishment of a letter of credit, guaranty or surety.
No financial arrangement made pursuant to this subsection may provide protection for a person adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals therefrom, to be liable for intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law, except with respect to the advancement of expenses or indemnification ordered by a court.
(3) Any insurance or other financial arrangement made on behalf of a person pursuant to this section may be provided by the corporation or any other person approved by the board of directors, even if all or part of the other person’s stock or other securities is owned by the corporation.
(4) In the absence of fraud:
(a) The decision of the board of directors as to the propriety of the terms and conditions of any insurance or other financial arrangement made pursuant to this section and the choice of the person to provide the insurance or other financial arrangement is conclusive; and
(b) The insurance or other financial arrangement:
35 |
(i) Is not void or voidable; and
(ii) Does not subject any director approving it to personal liability for his action, even if a director approving the insurance or other financial arrangement is a beneficiary of the insurance or other financial arrangement.
(5) A corporation or its subsidiary which provides self-insurance for itself or for another affiliated corporation pursuant to this section is not subject to the provisions of Title 57 of NRS.”

(c) Pro forma financial information in connection with these acquisitions pursuant to Rule 8-05 of Regulation S-X is also included in this Form 10 after the financial statements of the Company.

TBC GLOBAL NEWS NETWORK, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS
The accompanying unaudited financial statements of TBC Global News Network, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Company”), have been prepared in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) requirements for interim financial statements. Therefore, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2014.
The financial statements include the accounts of the Company. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). All common stock share numbers reflect a 1,000 to 1 reverse split of the Company’s common stock effective on September 6, 2007, a 10,000 to 1 reverse split of the Company’s common stock effective on April 9, 2009, and a 3,000 to 1 reverse split of the Company’s common stock effective on April 27, 2015.
The interim financial information is unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as of June 30, 2015, and the results of operations and cash flows for the six months then ended. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for the full year.
In November 2008, the Company halted its previous operations of providing online movie rentals (also referred to as a “DVD”) and video game rentals to subscribers through its Internet website, gameznflix.com.
On May 7, 2009, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to Articles of Incorporation with the Nevada Secretary of State. This amendment changed the name of the Company to TBC Global News Network, Inc. This corporate action had previously been approved by consent of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company. As of July 30, 2009, the new trading symbol for the Company is “TGLN.”
During the first quarter of 2010, the Company ceased its prior operations of producing video news, business profiles, and television advertisements.
On March 19, 2010, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with Sterling Yacht Sales, Inc., and it stockholders, Glenn W. McMachen, Sr., and Arlene McMachen. However, since the buyers breached this agreement the transaction was rescinded, and therefore no consolidation is required.
42 |
From August 2010 until August 2014, the Company did not operate. Upon assuming the positions as a director and officer of the Company in August 2014, Mr. Fleming commenced operations of the Company as a consultant and also seeking opportunities for the Company.
On August 15, 2014, Mr. McMachen, the Company’s sole board member, and chief executive officer, president, and secretary/treasurer of the Company, appointed John Fleming as a new member of the Company’s board of directors. Mr. McMachen then resigned from all positions with the Company. Mr. Fleming was then appointed as the Company’s executive officer, president, and secretary/treasurer. Mr. Fleming will serve in these positions until the next annual meeting of stockholders or until their successors are duly elected and have qualified.
NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The summary of significant accounting policies of the Company is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.
Use of 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Because of the use of estimates inherent in the financial reporting process, actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents.
The Company maintains cash balances in non-interest-bearing accounts that currently do not exceed federally insured limits. For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents as of June 30, 2015.
Income Taxes.
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Deferred income taxes are recognized by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance for any tax benefits for which future realization is uncertain.
43 |
At June 30, 2015, the Company has net operating loss carry-forwards totaling $74,448,788. The carry-forwards begin to expire in fiscal year 2034. The Company has established a valuation allowance for the full tax benefit of the operating loss carry-forwards due to the uncertainty regarding realization. Pursuant to Sections 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code, annual use of any of the Company's net operation loss and credit carry forwards may be limited if cumulative changes in ownership of more than 50% occur during any three year period.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets.
In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 360, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” long-lived assets such as property and equipment and intangible assets subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets groups to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset group to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset group. If the carrying amount of an asset group exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of an asset group exceeds fair value of the asset group.
Net Income (Loss) Per Share.
Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of outstanding shares of common stock during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the weighted-average number of outstanding shares of common stock, including any potential common shares outstanding during the period, when the potential shares are dilutive. Potential common shares consist primarily of incremental shares issuable upon the assumed exercise of stock options and warrants to purchase common stock using the treasury stock method. The calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share gives effect to common stock equivalents; however, potential common shares are excluded if their effect is anti-dilutive, as they were during 2015 and 2014. During June 30, 2015 and 2014, the number of potential common shares excluded from diluted weighted-average number of outstanding shares was 0 and 0, respectively.
Stock-Based Compensation.
Options granted to consultants, independent representatives and other non-employees are accounted for using the fair value method as prescribed by ASC Topic 718, “Share-Based Payment.”

Recent Pronouncements.
On November 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-17—Business Combinations (Topic 805): “Pushdown Accounting (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force).” The amendments in this ASU provide an acquired entity with an option to apply pushdown accounting in its separate financial statements upon occurrence of an event in which an acquirer obtains control of the acquired entity. The amendments in this ASU are effective on November 18, 2014. After the effective date, an acquired entity can make an election to apply the guidance to future change-in-control events or to its most recent change-in-control event. However, if the financial statements for the period in which the most recent change-in-control event occurred already have been issued or made available to be issued, the application of this guidance would be a change in accounting principle. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.
On November 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-16—Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): “Determining Whether the Host Contract in a Hybrid Financial Instrument Issued in the Form of a Share Is More Akin to Debt or to Equity (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force).” The amendments in this ASU do not change the current criteria in GAAP for determining when separation of certain embedded derivative features in a hybrid financial instrument is required. That is, an entity will continue to evaluate whether the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative feature are clearly and closely related to those of the host contract, among other relevant criteria. The amendments clarify how current GAAP should be interpreted in evaluating the economic characteristics and risks of a host contract in a hybrid financial instrument that is issued in the form of a share. The effects of initially adopting the amendments in this Update should be applied on a modified retrospective basis to existing hybrid financial instruments issued in the form of a share as of the beginning of the fiscal year for which the amendments are effective. Retrospective application is permitted to all relevant prior periods. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern.” This ASU requires management of public and private companies to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and, if so, disclose that fact. Management will also be required to evaluate and disclose whether its plans alleviate that doubt. This ASU requires management to evaluate, for each reporting period, whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about a company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date the financial statements are issued. The new standard is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a significant impact on its financial statements.
In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-10, “Development Stage Entities”. The amendments in this update remove the definition of a development stage entity from the Master Glossary of the ASC thereby removing the financial reporting distinction between development stage entities and other reporting entities from U.S. GAAP.
45 |
In addition, the amendments eliminate the requirements for development stage entities to:
· | present inception-to-date information in the statements of income, cash flows, and shareholder equity, |
· | label the financial statements as those of a development stage entity, |
· | disclose a description of the development stage activities in which the entity is engaged, and |
· | disclose in the first year in which the entity is no longer a development stage entity that in prior years it had been in the development stage. |
The amendments in this update are applied retrospectively. The early adoption of ASU 2014-10 is permitted which removed the development stage entity financial reporting requirements from the Company. The Company adopted it as of December 31, 2014.
NOTE 3 – SHORT TERM NOTE
On March 17, 2015, the Company entered into a promissory note with Peter Lambert for a loan of $25,000 that became due on June 15, 2015. The loan carries an interest at the rate of $55 per day. On June 12, 2015, the parties amended this promissory note so that the loan was extended and will accrue interest at $55 per day until this note is paid in full. As of June 30, 2015, there was $5,833 interest accrued on the loan.
NOTE 4 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Starting January, 1 2015 Mr. Fleming is accruing a consulting fee of $1,500 a month until the Company puts a formal contract in place. As of June 30, 2015, the Company paid Mr. Fleming $3,666 of this consulting fee and there is a balance of $5,333 in accounts payable. There is no written agreement for this consulting fee.
On March 31, 2015, Mr. Fleming transferred $5,743 of various office equipment and supplies to the Company. The Company is carrying the balance due to Mr. Fleming under short-term liabilities and will reimburse Mr. Fleming during the current fiscal year. Mr. Fleming has a balance of $6,950 owed to him under “due to officers” for the transfer of assets and various out of pocket expenses.
NOTE 5 – GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in the notes to the financial statements, the Company has no established source of revenue. This raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Without realization of additional capital, it would be unlikely for the Company to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty.
46 |
The Company’s activities to date have been supported by equity financing. It has sustained losses in all previous reporting periods with an inception to date loss of $ 74,448,788 as of June 30, 2015. Management continues to seek funding from its shareholders and other qualified investors to pursue its business plan. In the alternative, the Company may be amenable to a sale, merger or other acquisition in the event such transaction is deemed by management to be in the best interests of the shareholders.
NOTE 6 – COMMON STOCK
On April 27, 2015, the Company completed a 3,000 to 1 reverse split of its issued and outstanding shares of common stock, taking the balance from 3,013,552,063 to 1,004,517. As of June 30, 2015, the number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock was 1,012,029 (includes shares issued for purposes of rounding).
NOTE 7 – LEGAL SERVICES
The Company has entered into an attorney-client contract with Brian F. Faulkner, A Professional Law Corporation, for corporate and securities law work for the company. This contract, dated April 3, 2015 (amended and restated on July 13, 2015), is for $100,000, $25,000 of which was accrued as of June 30, 2015.
NOTE 8 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On September 3, 2015, the Company completed an Acquisition Agreement under which the Company acquired all of the equity interests of Stimulating Software, LLC, a Florida limited liability company, the acquisition of all the common stock of Inner Four, Inc., a Florida corporation, and all of the common and preferred stock of Play Celebrity Games, Inc., a Delaware corporation.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
TBC Global News Network, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of TBC Global News Network, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statements presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses, has had recurring negative cash flows from operations, and has an accumulated deficit that raises substantial doubt over its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3, which includes the raising of additional equity financing or merger with another entity. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The summary of significant accounting policies of the Company is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to GAAP and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.
Use of Estimates.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Because of the use of estimates inherent in the financial reporting process, actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents.
The Company maintains cash balances in non-interest-bearing accounts that currently do not exceed federally insured limits. For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents as of December 31, 2014.
Income Taxes.
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Deferred income taxes are recognized by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance for any tax benefits for which future realization is uncertain.
At December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 the Company has net operating loss carry-forwards totaling approximately $74,375,351 and 77,472,013 respectively. The carry-forwards begin to expire in fiscal year 2034. The Company has established a valuation allowance for the full tax benefit of the operating loss carry-forwards due to the uncertainty regarding realization. Pursuant to Sections 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code, annual use of any of the Company's net operation loss and credit carry forwards may be limited if cumulative changes in ownership of more than 50% occur during any three year period.

Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the weighted-average number of outstanding shares of common stock, including any potential common shares outstanding during the period, when the potential shares are dilutive. Potential common shares consist primarily of incremental shares issuable upon the assumed exercise of stock options and warrants to purchase common stock using the treasury stock method. The calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share gives effect to common stock equivalents; however, potential common shares are excluded if their effect is anti-dilutive, as they were during 2014 and 2013. During December 31, 2014 and 2013, the number of potential common shares excluded from diluted weighted-average number of outstanding shares was 0 and 0, respectively.
Stock-Based Compensation.
Options granted to consultants, independent representatives and other non-employees are accounted for using the fair value method as prescribed by ASC Topic 718, “Share-Based Payment.”
Recent Pronouncements.
On November 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-17—Business Combinations (Topic 805): “Pushdown Accounting (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force).” The amendments in this ASU provide an acquired entity with an option to apply pushdown accounting in its separate financial statements upon occurrence of an event in which an acquirer obtains control of the acquired entity.

On November 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-16—Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): “Determining Whether the Host Contract in a Hybrid Financial Instrument Issued in the Form of a Share Is More Akin to Debt or to Equity (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force).” The amendments in this ASU do not change the current criteria in GAAP for determining when separation of certain embedded derivative features in a hybrid financial instrument is required. That is, an entity will continue to evaluate whether the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative feature are clearly and closely related to those of the host contract, among other relevant criteria. The amendments clarify how current GAAP should be interpreted in evaluating the economic characteristics and risks of a host contract in a hybrid financial instrument that is issued in the form of a share. The effects of initially adopting the amendments in this Update should be applied on a modified retrospective basis to existing hybrid financial instruments issued in the form of a share as of the beginning of the fiscal year for which the amendments are effective. Retrospective application is permitted to all relevant prior periods. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a significant impact on its financial statements.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern.” This ASU requires management of public and private companies to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and, if so, disclose that fact. Management will also be required to evaluate and disclose whether its plans alleviate that doubt. This ASU requires management to evaluate, for each reporting period, whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about a company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date the financial statements are issued. The new standard is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a significant impact on its financial statements.
In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-10, “Development Stage Entities”. The amendments in this update remove the definition of a development stage entity from the Master Glossary of the ASC thereby removing the financial reporting distinction between development stage entities and other reporting entities from U.S. GAAP.
In addition, the amendments eliminate the requirements for development stage entities to:
· | present inception-to-date information in the statements of income, cash flows, and shareholder equity, |
· | label the financial statements as those of a development stage entity, |
· | disclose a description of the development stage activities in which the entity is engaged, and |
56 |
· | disclose in the first year in which the entity is no longer a development stage entity that in prior years it had been in the development stage. |
The amendments in this update are applied retrospectively. The early adoption of ASU 2014-10 is permitted which removed the development stage entity financial reporting requirements from the Company. The Company adopted it as of December 31, 2014.
NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has sustained losses in all previous reporting periods, with an inception to date loss of $74,374,926 and $77,471,588 as of December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The Company has also suffered recurring losses and has had recurring negative cash flows from operations. This raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Without realization of additional capital, it would be unlikely for the Company to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty.
The Company’s activities to date have been supported by equity financing. Management continues to seek funding from its shareholders and other qualified investors to pursue its business plan. In the alternative, the Company may be amenable to a sale, merger or other acquisition in the event such transaction is deemed by management to be in the best interests of the shareholders.
NOTE 4 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Starting January, 1 2015 Mr. Fleming is accruing a consulting fee of $1,500 a month until the Company puts a formal contact in place. As of June 30, 2015, the Company paid Mr. Fleming $3,666 of this consulting fee and there is a balance of $5,333 in accounts payable. There is no written agreement for this consulting fee.
On March 17, 2015, the Company entered into a promissory note with Peter Lambert for a loan of $25,000 that became due on June 15, 2015. The loan carries an interest at the rate of $55 per day. On June 12, 2015, the parties amended this promissory note so that the loan was extended and will accrue interest at $55 per day until this note is paid in full. As of June 30, 2015, there was $5,833 interest accrued on the loan.
On March 31, 2015, Mr. Fleming transferred $5,743 of various office equipment and supplies to the Company. The Company is carrying the balance due to Mr. Fleming under short-term liabilities and will reimburse Mr. Fleming during the current fiscal year. Mr. Fleming has a balance of $6,950 owed to him under “due to officers” for the transfer of assets and various out of pocket expenses.
57 |
On April 27, 2015, the Company completed a 3,000 to 1 reverse split of its issued and outstanding shares of common stock, taking the balance from 3,013,552,063 to 1,004,517. As of June 30, 2015, the number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock was 1,012,029 (includes shares issued for purposes of rounding).
On September 3, 2015, the Company completed an Acquisition Agreement under which the Company acquired all of the equity interests of Stimulating Software, LLC, a Florida limited liability company, the acquisition of all the common stock of Inner Four, Inc., a Florida corporation, and all of the common and preferred stock of Play Celebrity Games, Inc., a Delaware corporation.

The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.

INNER FOUR, INC.
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2014 AND 2013
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization.
Inner Four, Inc. (“Company”) was incorporated on June 14, 2007 under the laws of the State of Florida. . On September 3, 2015 100% of the Company was purchased by TBC Global News Network, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“TBC Global”), along with Stimulating Software, LLC, a Florida limited liability company (“Stimulating Software”), and Play Celebrity Games, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Play Celebrity”), all as wholly owned subsidiaries of TBC Global.
Basis of Presentation.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).
Nature of Business.
The Company has a library of Apps on I-tunes and Google store that generates revenues through App purchases, In App purchases and per click advertising.
Use of 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Because of the use of estimates inherent in the financial reporting process, actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Cash.
The Company maintains cash balances in non-interest-bearing accounts that currently do not exceed federally insured limits. For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. The Company had cash balances of $8,957 and $41,528 at the end of the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
64 |
Revenue Recognition.
The Company generates revenue from three sources: sale of game applications, sale of advertising provided with games, internet marketing sales with games on per click basis ($0.01 or $0.02 per click) by users. The Company recognizes revenue using four basic criteria that must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured, which is typically after receipt of payment and delivery. The Company has service agreements with Apple and Google, and the Company receives revenue on net basis, which is 70% and 60% of the revenue from sale of game applications and sale of advertising provided with games.
Income Taxes.
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Deferred income taxes are recognized by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance for any tax benefits for which future realization is uncertain.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets.
In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 360, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” long-lived assets such as property and equipment and intangible assets subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets groups to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset group to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset group. If the carrying amount of an asset group exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of an asset group exceeds fair value of the asset group.
Net Income Per Share.
Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of outstanding shares of common stock during the period.
Recent Pronouncements.
In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2015-05, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Topic 350-40).” The amendments of this ASU will help entities evaluate the accounting for fees paid by a customer in a cloud computing arrangement by providing guidance as to whether an arrangement includes the sale or license of software. The disclosure requirements will be effective for annual periods (and interim periods within those annual periods) ending after December 15, 2015. The amendment may be adopted either prospectively to all arrangements entered into or materially modified after the effective date or retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. We expect to adopt this new standard in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
65 |
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, “Interest - Imputation of Interest (Topic 835-30)”, which requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by this ASU. The disclosure requirements will be effective for annual periods (and interim periods within those annual periods) beginning after December 15, 2015, and will require retrospective application. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”, which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The original effective date for ASU 2014-09 would have required the Company to adopt beginning in its first quarter of fiscal year 2018. In July 2015, the FASB voted to amend ASU 2014-09 by approving a one-year deferral of the effective date as well as providing the option to early adopt the standard on the original effective date. Accordingly, we may adopt the standard in either the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 or 2019. We are currently evaluating the timing and method of adoption and the impact of the new revenue standard on our Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.
NOTE 2 – Related Party Transactions
As president of Inner Four, Inc., John Swartz has taken a draw of $47,258 and $111,506 during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
NOTE 3 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On September 3, 2015 the Company become a wholly owned subsidiary of TBC Global. In consideration 575 restricted shares of Series A preferred stock and 4,936,718 restricted shares of restricted common stock were issued.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the
Management and
Members of Stimulating Software, LLC
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Stimulating Software, LLC (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2014, and the related statement of operations, statement of changes in members’ equity, and statement of cash flows for the period of November 5, 2014 (inception) to December 31, 2014 . The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
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 audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. The audit also include examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2014, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period of November 5, 2014 (inception) to December 31, 2014 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has had limited revenue and income since inception. These conditions, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1, which includes the raising of additional funds through equity or debt financing, collaborative or other arrangements with corporate partners, licensees or others. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

STIMULATING SOFTWARE, LLC
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR
THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2015 (UNAUDITED) AND
FOR THE PERIOD OF NOVEMBER 5, 2014 (INCEPTION) TO DECEMBER 31, 2014
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization.
Stimulating Software, LLC (“Company”) was incorporated on November 5, 2014 under the laws of the State of Florida. On September 3, 2015 100% of the Company was purchased by TBC Global News Network, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“TBC Global”), along with Inner Four, Inc., A Florida corporation (“Inner Four”), and Play Celebrity Games, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Play Celebrity”), all as wholly owned subsidiaries of TBC Global.
Basis of Presentation.
The financial statements include the accounts of the Company. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The Financials are presented as of December 31, 2014.
Nature of Business.
The Company has a library of Apps on I-tunes and Google store that generates revenues through App purchases, In App purchases and per click advertising.
Use of 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Because of the use of estimates inherent in the financial reporting process, actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Cash.
The Company maintains cash balances in non-interest-bearing accounts that currently do not exceed federally insured limits. For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. The Company had cash balances of $4,838 and $5,301 at the end of the periods ended December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2015, respectively.
78 |
Revenue Recognition
The Company generates revenue from two sources: sale of game applications, sale of advertising provided with games. The Company recognizes revenue using four basic criteria that must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured, which is typically after receipt of payment and delivery. The Company has service agreements with Apple and Google, and the Company receives revenue on net basis, which is 70% and 60% of the revenue from sale of game applications and sale of advertising provided games, respectively.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Deferred income taxes are recognized by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance for any tax benefits for which future realization is uncertain.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 360, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” long-lived assets such as property and equipment and intangible assets subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets groups to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset group to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset group. If the carrying amount of an asset group exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of an asset group exceeds fair value of the asset group.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the company will continue as a going concern. The Company has only limited revenue from inception to date. This raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Without realization of additional capital, it would be unlikely for the Company to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty.
The Company is currently building up its revenue stream. The Company has retained earnings of $1,504 as of June 30, 2015. Management’s plans include the raising of additional funds through equity or debt financing, collaborative or other arrangements with corporate partners, licensees or others.
79 |
Recent Pronouncements.
In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2015-05, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Topic 350-40).” The amendments of this ASU will help entities evaluate the accounting for fees paid by a customer in a cloud computing arrangement by providing guidance as to whether an arrangement includes the sale or license of software. The disclosure requirements will be effective for annual periods (and interim periods within those annual periods) ending after December 15, 2015. The amendment may be adopted either prospectively to all arrangements entered into or materially modified after the effective date or retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. We expect to adopt this new standard in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, “Interest - Imputation of Interest (Topic 835-30)”, which requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by this ASU. The disclosure requirements will be effective for annual periods (and interim periods within those annual periods) beginning after December 15, 2015, and will require retrospective application. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”, which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The original effective date for ASU 2014-09 would have required the Company to adopt beginning in its first quarter of fiscal year 2018. In July 2015, the FASB voted to amend ASU 2014-09 by approving a one-year deferral of the effective date as well as providing the option to early adopt the standard on the original effective date. Accordingly, we may adopt the standard in either the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 or 2019. We are currently evaluating the timing and method of adoption and the impact of the new revenue standard on our Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.
NOTE 2 – ASSETS
The Company currently does not have any asset on its books as the apps were expensed as they were developed by the parent company and assigned to the Company.
NOTE 3 – Related Party Transactions
As the principal member of the Company, John Swartz has provided the Company with $5,125 and $101 during the periods ended December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2015, respectively.
80 |
NOTE 4 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On September 3, 2015 the Company became a wholly owned subsidiary of TBC Global. In consideration the members received 2,000 restricted shares of Series A preferred stock and 4,936,717 restricted shares of common stock.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the
Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Play Celebrity Games, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Play Celebrity Games, Inc. (“the Company”) as of June 30, 2015, and the related statement of operations, statement of changes in stockholders’ equity, and statement of cash flows for the period of June 5, 2015 (inception) to June 30, 2015. The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
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 audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. The audit also include examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2015, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period of June 5, 2015 (inception) to June 30, 2015.in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has had no revenue and income since inception. These conditions, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1, which includes the raising of additional funds through equity or debt financing, collaborative or other arrangements with corporate partners, licensees or others. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance for any tax benefits for which future realization is uncertain.
Net Loss Per Share.
Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of outstanding shares of common stock during the period.
Going Concern.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the company will continue as a going concern. The Company has no established source of revenue. This raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Without realization of additional capital, it would be unlikely for the Company to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty.

UNAUDITED CONDENSED COMBINED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
On September 3, 2015, the Company completed an Acquisition Agreement under which the Company acquired all of the equity interests of Stimulating Software, LLC, a Florida limited liability company formed on November 5, 2014 (“Stimulating Software”), the acquisition of all the common stock of Inner Four, Inc., a Florida corporation formed on June 19, 2007 (“Inner Four”), and all of the common and preferred stock of Play Celebrity Games, Inc., a Delaware corporation formed on June 5, 2015 (“Play Celebrity”). This acquisition was accomplished through a payment by the Company of common stock and preferred stock.
The following unaudited condensed combined pro forma balance sheet has been developed by applying pro forma adjustments to the separate unaudited balance sheet of the Company at June 30, 2015 included in Company’s interim financial statements included in this Form 10, and the separate unaudited balance sheets of Inner Four, Stimulating Software and Play Celebrity at June 30, 2015.
The following unaudited condensed combined pro forma statement of operations has been developed by applying pro forma adjustments to the separate audited statements of operations of the Company included in Company’s audited financial statements included in this Form 10, the separate unaudited interim statement of operations of the Company for the six months ended June 30, 2015 included in this Form 10, the separate unaudited statements of operations of Inner Four and Stimulating Software for the year ended December 31, 2014, and the separate unaudited statements of operations of Inner Four and Stimulating Software for the six months ended June 30, 2015.
The historical financial information has been adjusted to give effect to pro forma events that are (1) directly attributable to the acquisition, (2) factually supportable, and (3) expected to have a continuing impact on the operating results of the combined company.
The following unaudited condensed combined pro forma balance sheet as of June 30, 2015 presents the combined results of the Company’s balance sheet and those of Inner Four, Stimulating Software and Play Celebrity as if the acquisition had occurred prior to that date.
The following unaudited condensed combined pro forma statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2014 and for the six months ended June 30, 2015 present the combined results of the Company’s operations and the results of operations of Inner Four and Stimulating Software as if the acquisition had occurred at December 31, 2014.
The unaudited pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and certain assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The unaudited condensed combined pro forma financial information is presented for informational purposes only. The unaudited condensed combined pro forma financial information does not purport to represent what the Company’s results of operations would have been had the acquisition actually occurred on the date indicated and it does not purport to project the Company’s results of operations for any future period. There were no material transactions between the Company, on the one hand, and Inner Four, Stimulating Software and Play Celebrity, on the other hand, during the periods presented in the unaudited condensed combined pro forma balance sheet and statement of operations that would need to be eliminated.
91 |
The unaudited condensed combined pro forma balance sheet and statement of operations should be read in conjunction with the accompanying Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Combined Pro Forma Financial Statements. All pro forma adjustments and their underlying assumptions are described more fully in the accompanying Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Combined Pro Forma Financial Statements.
The unaudited condensed combined pro forma financial information has been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The acquisition accounting is dependent upon certain valuations and other studies that have yet to commence or progress to a stage where there is sufficient information for a definitive measurement. Accordingly, the pro forma adjustments are preliminary and have been made solely for the purpose of providing unaudited condensed combined pro forma financial information. Differences between these preliminary estimates and the final acquisition accounting will occur and these differences could have a significant impact on the accompanying unaudited condensed combined pro forma balance sheet and statement of operations, and the combined Company’s future results of operations and financial position.
The unaudited condensed combined pro forma financial information does not reflect any cost savings, operating synergies or revenue enhancements that the combined company may achieve as a result of the acquisition or the costs to combine or associated with the combination of the operations of the Company, and Inner Four and Stimulating Software or the costs necessary to achieve these cost savings, operating synergies and revenue enhancements.
In addition, future results may vary significantly from the results reflected in the unaudited condensed combined pro forma financial information set forth herein due to certain factors beyond the Company’s control.

NOTES TO CONDENSED COMBINED
PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1—DESCRIPTION OF TRANSACTION
On September 3, 2015, the Company completed an Acquisition Agreement under which the Company acquired all of the equity interests of Stimulating Software, LLC, a Florida limited liability company formed on November 5, 2014 (“Stimulating Software”), the acquisition of all the common stock of Inner Four, Inc., a Florida corporation formed on June 19, 2007 (“Inner Four”), and all of the common and preferred stock of Play Celebrity Games, Inc., a Delaware corporation formed on June 5, 2015 (“Play Celebrity”). This acquisition was accomplished through a payment by the Company of common stock and preferred stock.
NOTE 2—BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The unaudited condensed combined pro forma balance sheet and statement of operations have been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The acquisition accounting is dependent upon certain valuations and other studies that have yet to commence or progress to a stage where there is sufficient information for a definitive measurement. Accordingly, the pro forma adjustments are preliminary and have been made solely for the purpose of providing the unaudited condensed combined pro forma balance sheet and statement of operations. Differences between these preliminary estimates and the final acquisition accounting will occur and these differences could have a significant impact on the unaudited condensed combined pro forma balance sheet and statement of operations and the combined company’s future results of operations and financial position.
The unaudited condensed combined pro forma balance sheet for the six months ended June 30, 2015, and the statements of operations for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 and for the six months ended June 30, 2015 assumes that the acquisition of Inner Four and Stimulating Software took place on December 31, 2014. The unaudited condensed consolidated pro forma balance sheet as of June 30, 2015 combines the Company’s unaudited interim balance sheet at June 30, 2015 with the Inner Four, Stimulating Software and Play Celebrity unaudited balance sheets at June 30, 2015.
The unaudited condensed combined pro forma statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2014 combines the Company’s audited consolidated statement of operations for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 with the Inner Four and Stimulating Software unaudited statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2014. The unaudited condensed combined pro forma statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2015 combines the Company’s unaudited interim statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2015 with the Inner Four and Stimulating Software unaudited statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2015.

The condensed combined pro forma balance sheet and statement of operations have been prepared for informational purposes only and do not purport to be indicative of the actual results that would have been achieved by the Company or the combined Company for the periods presented or that will be achieved by the Company or the combined Company in the future.
The unaudited condensed combined pro forma balance sheet and statement of operations included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
