STRATUS MEDIA GROUP, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2012 (UNAUDITED) and DECEMBER 31, 2011

1.  Business

On March 14, 2008, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated August 20, 2007 between Feris International, Inc. (“Feris”) and Pro Sports & Entertainment, Inc. (“PSEI”), Feris issued 49,500,000 shares of its common stock for all of the issued and outstanding shares of PSEI, resulting in PSEI becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Feris and the surviving entity for accounting purposes (“Reverse Merger”).  In July 2008, Feris’ corporate name was changed to Stratus Media Group, Inc. (“SMDI,” “Stratus” or the “Company”).

PSEI, a California corporation, was organized on November 23, 1998 and specializes in sports and entertainment events it owns, operates, manages, markets and sells in national markets.  PSEI acquired the business of Stratus Rewards, LLC (“Stratus Rewards”) in August 2005 and Stratus Rewards is a wholly-owned subsidiary of PSEI.  Stratus Rewards is a credit card rewards program using the Visa card platform that offers a luxury rewards redemption program, including private jet travel, premium travel opportunities, exclusive events and luxury merchandise.   In May 2010, the Company entered into an agreement with a private bank in Switzerland for it to be the processing bank for Stratus Rewards in Europe.

ProElite, Inc. (“PEI”) is a subsidiary of the Company.  PEI specializes in the operation and management of Mixed Martial Arts events.  

2.  Going Concern

The Company has suffered losses from operations and without additional capital, lacks liquidity to meet its current obligations.  The Company had a net loss for 2011 of $15,837,168 and a net loss of $9,317,865 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.  As of September 30, 2012, the Company had negative working capital of $9,247,432 and accumulated deficit of $51,566,427.  Unless additional financing is obtained, the Company will not be able to continue as a going concern.  Because of the lack of working capital, the Company has ceased operations and furloughed its employees.

The financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result if the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

3.  Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).  The unaudited balance sheet at September 30, 2012 consolidates the accounts of PEI.  All significant intercompany balances were eliminated in consolidation.  

Use of Estimates

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Although these estimates are based on our knowledge of current events and actions we may undertake in the future, actual results may differ from such estimates and assumptions.

Event Revenues

Event revenue consists of ticket sales, participant entry fees, corporate sponsorships, advertising, television broadcast fees, athlete management, concession and merchandise sales, charity receipts, commissions and hospitality functions. The Company recognizes admissions and other event-related revenues when the events are held in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 104. Revenues received in advance and related direct expenses pertaining to specific events are deferred until the events are held.

6

Stratus White

Stratus White (formerly Stratus Rewards), the Company’s affiliate redemption credit card rewards program, is expected to generate revenues from transaction fees generated by member purchases using the card, initiation fees and annual membership fees. Revenue is recognized when transaction fees are received and membership fees are amortized and recognized ratably over the twelve-month membership period from the time of receipt.

Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable arise principally from royalties from television networks for pay-per-view presentations.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Our financial instruments include cash and equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, notes payable and accrued liabilities. The carrying amounts of financial instruments approximate fair value (“FV”) due to their short maturities.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. We record depreciation using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:

Equipment	3 – 5 years
Furniture and fixtures	5 years
Software	3 years
Leasehold improvements	Lesser of lease term or life of improvements

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist of goodwill from certain events and the Stratus White Visa Card (“Stratus White”) we acquired. Goodwill is the excess of the cost of an acquired entity over the net amounts assigned to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. We apply FASB ASC Topic 350 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, which requires allocating goodwill to each reporting unit and testing for impairment using a two-step approach.

The Company purchased several events that are recorded on the Company’s balance sheet as intangible assets with a value at the consideration paid for such assets, which generally include licensing rights, naming rights, merchandising rights and the right to hold such event in particular geographic locations.  There was no goodwill assigned to any of these events and the value of the consideration paid for each event is the value for each related intangible asset.   Each event has separate accounts for tracking revenues and expenses and a separate account to track the asset valuation.

A portion of the consideration used to purchase the Stratus White program was allocated to specific assets, as disclosed in the footnotes to the financial statements, with the difference between the specific assets and the total consideration paid for the program being allocated to goodwill.

The Company reviews the value of intangible assets and related goodwill as part of its annual reporting process, which generally occurs in February or March of each calendar year.  Between valuations, the Company conducts additional tests if circumstances warrant such testing.  For example, the Company determined that as of September 30, 2012, the value of the Beverly Hills Concours, Maui Music Festival and Freedom Bowl were impaired when the Company elected not to continue these events and $197,500 of impairment charges were taken to reduce the value of these three events to zero.

To review the value of intangible assets and related goodwill, the Company compares discounted cash flow forecasts with the amounts of the assets on the balance sheet.

The events are forecasted based on historical results for those events, adjusted over time for the assumed synergies expected from discounts from purchases of goods and services from a number of events rather than from each event on its own, and for synergies resulting from the expected ability to provide sponsors with benefits from sponsoring multiple events with a single point of contact.

7

These forecasts are discounted at a range of discount rates determined by taking the risk-free interest rate at the time of valuation, plus premiums for equity risk and small companies in general, and factors specific to the Company and its business.

If the Company determines the discount factor for cash flows should be increased, or the event will not be able to begin operations when planned, it is possible the amounts for the intangible assets currently on the balance sheet could be reduced or eliminated, which could result in a maximum charge to operations equal to the current carrying value of the intangible assets of $3,162,466.

Research and Development

Research and development costs not related to contract performance are expensed as incurred. We did not incur any research and development expenses for 2011 or the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

Capitalized Software Costs

We did not capitalize any software development costs during 2011 or the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Costs related to the development of new software products and significant enhancements to existing software products are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has been established and are amortized over three years.

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets

We account for long-lived assets in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 360 Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, which requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets is measured by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds their FV. Assets to be disposed of by sale are reflected at the lower of their carrying amount or FV less cost to sell.

Net Loss Per Share

We compute net loss per share in accordance with FASB ASC Topics 260 Earnings Per Share.  Basic per share data is computed by dividing loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted per share data is computed by dividing loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period increased to include, if dilutive, the number of additional common share equivalents that would have been outstanding if potential common shares had been issued using the treasury stock method. Diluted per share data would also include the potential common share equivalents relating to convertible securities by application of the if-converted method.

The effect of common stock equivalents (which include outstanding warrants and stock options) are not included for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 or 2011, as they are antidilutive to loss per share.

Stock-Based Compensation

We follow FASB ASC Topic 718 Share Based Payment, using the modified prospective transition method. New awards and awards modified, repurchased or cancelled after January 1, 2006 trigger compensation expense based on the FV of the stock option as determined by the Black-Scholes option pricing model. We amortize stock-based compensation for such awards on a straight-line method over the related service period of the awards taking into account the effects of the employees’ expected exercise and post-vesting employment termination behavior.

We account for equity instruments issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 718.

The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury interest rates, the terms of which are consistent with the expected life of the stock options.   Future option grants will be calculated using expected volatility based upon the average volatility of our common stock.

Advertising

We expense the cost of advertising as incurred. Such amounts have not historically been significant to our operations.

8

Income Taxes

The Company utilizes FASB ASC Topics 740-10 and 740-30 Accounting for Income Taxes, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that were included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The provision for income taxes represents the tax payable for the period and the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2011, FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (ASC Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income. Under the amendments in this update, an entity has the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. Under both options, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income and a total amount for comprehensive income. In a single continuous statement, the entity is required to present the components of net income and total net income, the components of other comprehensive income and a total for other comprehensive income, along with the total of comprehensive income in that statement. In the two-statement approach, an entity is required to present components of net income and total net income in the statement of net income. The statement of other comprehensive income should immediately follow the statement of net income and include the components of other comprehensive income and a total for other comprehensive income, along with a total for comprehensive income. In addition, the entity is required to present on the face of the financial statements reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statement(s) where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented. The amendments in this update should be applied retrospectively and are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company evaluated this pronouncement and determined that it is not applicable to the Company’s financial presentation at this time.

In September 2011, FASB issued ASU 2011-08 Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350), which requires that a company should first examine the facts and circumstances for each event or business to determine if it was more likely than not that an impairment had occurred. If this examination suggested it was more likely that an impairment had occurred, the company then compares discounted cash flow forecasts related to the asset with the stated value of the assets on the balance sheet. The Company adopted this accounting standard for the year ended December 31, 2011 and utilized it in the analysis for impairment of intangible assets.

On July 27, 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) - Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment.  The ASU provides entities with an option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether events or circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired.  If an entity concludes that it is more than 50% likely that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is not impaired, no further analysis is required.  However, if an entity concludes otherwise, it would be required to determine the FV of the indefinite-lived intangible asset to measure the amount of actual impairment, if any, as currently required under US GAAP. The ASU is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012.  Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this pronouncement will not have a material impact on our financial statements.

4.  Litigation

In March 2011, four of our shareholders filed an action in Superior Court of California, in Santa Barbara County (lead plaintiff is Howell Douglas Wood (“Wood”)), against us, our Chief Executive Officer at that time (“CEO”), Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) and its outside directors. The complaint alleges violations of the California Corporations Code relating to the issuance of securities to the plaintiffs, fraud, breach of fiduciary duty, breach of contract, and breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing relating to the handling of requests by the plaintiffs to sell their shares. The complaint seeks unspecified compensatory and punitive damages, recovery of attorney fees and costs and certain equitable relief. In motions filed with the Court, the Company took the position that the claims were without merit, and aggressively defended the action. In October 2012, the parties reached an agreement whereby the matter has been resolved to the parties’ mutual satisfaction, and the Company anticipates that the lawsuit will be dismissed within the next 60 days of the filing of this report.

9

In November 2011, 12 additional shareholders filed an action in Superior Court of California, in Santa Barbara County (lead plaintiff is Jeffrey Tuttle), against us, our then CEO, CFO and its outside directors. This complaint was filed by the same law firms as the Wood complaint, and is similar to the Wood complaint.  As with the Wood complaint, the Tuttle complaint alleges violations of the California Corporations Code relating to the issuance of securities to the plaintiffs, fraud, breach of fiduciary duty, breach of contract, and breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing relating to the handling of requests by the plaintiffs to sell their shares. The complaint seeks unspecified compensatory and punitive damages, recovery of attorney fees and costs and certain equitable relief. In motions filed with the Court, the Company took the position that the claims were without merit, and aggressively defended the action. In October 2012, the parties reached an agreement whereby the matter has been resolved to the parties’ mutual satisfaction, and the Company anticipates that the lawsuit will be dismissed within the next 60 days of the filing of this report.

In April 2012, Ned Sands filed a lawsuit against the Company for alleged discrimination based on religion and age in an employee termination, as well as fraud in inducing him to join the company.  The plaintiff has filed his second amended complaint, which adds as additional defendants a current and former officer of the Company. The Company took the position that the claims were without merit, and aggressively defended the action. In October 2012, the parties reached an agreement whereby the matter has been resolved to the parties’ mutual satisfaction, and the Company anticipates that the lawsuit will be dismissed within the next 60 days of the filing of this report.

 5.  Acquisition of Stratus White

In accordance with the Asset Purchase Agreement dated August 15, 2005, between the Company and Stratus White LLC (“Stratus Purchase Agreement”), the Company acquired the business of Stratus White, a credit card rewards program.

The consideration for this acquisition was $3,000,000, with Stratus entering into a note payable of $1,000,000 and issuing 666,667 common shares valued at $2,000,000. The note is payable in eight quarterly equal payments over a 24 month period, with the first payment due upon completion of the first post-public merger funding of a minimum of $3,000,000.

The Stratus Purchase Agreement included the transfer to the Company of tangible personal property such as computers and all intellectual property, goodwill associated therewith, licenses and sublicenses.  Stratus White had at least $1.4 million of computer hardware and at least $0.2 million of computer software, all of which should have been transferred to the Company pursuant to the Stratus Purchase Agreement.  These computer and software assets were not included in the accounting for the acquisition of Stratus White by PSEI and the value of the computer hardware and software not received was allocated to goodwill.  The owner of Stratus White received notice on May 15, 2006 that if he did not deliver this hardware and software within 30 days, that the amount of consideration he was entitled to would be reduced by at least the $1,000,000 amount of the note, if not an additional $1,000,000 in common stock issued as consideration.  The owner responded on June 2, 2006 that his former law firm owned the computer hardware and software and he did not have the authority to release these items to the Company.

Given this situation and the expiration for the statute of limitations, the Company wrote off this liability as of December 31, 2011.

The results of operations of the business acquired were included in the Company’s Statements of Operations from the date of acquisition. Depreciation and amortization related to the acquisition were calculated based on the estimated fair values and estimated useful lives for property and equipment and an independent valuation for certain identifiable intangible assets acquired.

Effective May 14, 2010, the Company entered into a Co-branded Card Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Cornèr Banca SA (the “Bank”), located in Lugano, Switzerland.  Under the Agreement, the parties agreed to jointly launch a co-branded consumer card payment solution targeted at high net worth individuals and a co-branded commercial payment solution targeted at small and mid-sized businesses.  The cards, to be issued by the Bank, will include a loyalty rewards program.  The cards are targeted to residents of Europe.  The initial term of the Agreement is five years.  The Company, among other things, will be responsible for marketing and administration of, and expenses relating to, the rewards program.  The Bank will be responsible for issuing the cards.  The Company will receive a share of purchase transactions generated by a card holder and membership and initiation fees. This program has been on hold pending receipt of sufficient capital by the Company to resume development of the Stratus White program or a decision by Company management to not develop this business.

6.  Receivable from Former Officer and Director

Pursuant to an investigation conducted in March 2012 directed by the Company’s Board of Directors, it was determined that Paul Feller, the Company’s former Chairman and CEO, received $640,000 in December 2010 in connection with a sale of the Company’s common stock he arranged with an outside investor. This sale was fulfilled with issuance of 2,540,000 shares of common stock issued directly by the Company. Accordingly, the Company recorded a gross receivable of $640,000 from Mr. Feller in connection with this transaction. Mr. Feller resigned from the Company on June 28, 2012.

10

As of December 31, 2011, this receivable of $640,000 was presented net of $398,790 of accrued salary, $115,000 of commissions that Mr. Feller represented in writing were paid in this transaction, $30,540 of business expenses submitted by Mr. Feller that met Company and IRS guidelines and $133,770 of business expenses that Mr. Feller represented in writing he would provide, for a net receivable of zero.

As of September 30, 2012, this receivable of $640,000 was increased by $4,622 of personal expenses for Mr. Feller paid with Company funds, including $4,355 of registration fees paid by the Company for the vintage automobile that remains in Mr. Feller’s possession. This receivable of $682,722 is presented net of $30,540 of approved business expenses and $113,667 in deferred salary:

Additional evidence obtained in October 2012 confirmed that the $115,000 in commissions for the stock sales were not valid commissions and this amount was removed as an offset to the gross receivable for September 30, 2012. Pursuant to a Separation and Release Agreement dated June 28, 2012 and signed by Mr. Feller on August 9, 2012 (“Separation Agreement”), Mr. Feller agreed to waive his rights to any deferred salary prior to October 1, 2011. Accordingly, the amount of deferred salary eligible for offset to the gross receivable was reduced from $398,790 at December 31, 2011 to $113,667 at September 30, 2012, which consists of $125,000 in deferred salary between October 1, 2011 and June 28, 2012, less $11,333 paid in salary during that period. In addition, Mr. Feller did not submit expense reports to support the $133,770 of expenses in the time provided for in the Separation Agreement, so that amount was removed as an offset to his receivable as of September 30, 2012.

7.  Property and Equipment

Property and equipment were as follows:

	September 30,			December 31,
	2012			2011
Computers and peripherals	$	97,660		$	97,660
Office machines		49,370			49,370

8.  Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill and intangible assets of the Company were as follows:

	September 30,		December 31,
	2012		2011
Intangible Assets
Events
Beverly Hills Concours	$	–	$	2,500
Santa Barbara Concours d'Elegance		53,000		53,000
Cour Tour/Action Sports Tour		100,000		100,000

Total Goodwill		3,008,966		3,008,966
Total Goodwill and Intangible Assets	$	3,161,966	$	3,359,466

In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 350 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, the Company’s intangible assets are considered to have indefinite lives and are therefore no longer amortized, but rather are subject to annual impairment tests. The purchased licensed technology and membership list for Stratus Rewards were amortized over their estimated useful life of 10 years but impairment charges were taken as of December 31, 2011 to reduce the carrying value of these items to zero. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, amortization of these items was $0 and $34,057, respectively.  For the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, amortization was $0 and $11,353, respectively.

The Company’s annual impairment testing date is December 31, but the Company monitors the facts and circumstances for all intangible properties and will record impairment if warranted by adverse changes in facts and circumstances.   As of September 30, 2012, the Company elected to not pursue the Beverly Hills Concours, Maui Music Festival and Freedom Bowl events and took $197,500 of impairment charges to bring the value of these events to zero.

9.  Other Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities

Other accrued expenses and other liabilities consisted of the following:

	September 30,		December 31,

Other		65,777		49,884
	$	2,582,118	$	1,541,315

The estimated damage liability that may not be covered by insurance was determined based on a property damage estimate related to leaks from a broken pipe at a Company facility that was occupied at the time.

Until the note is paid, the holder has the right to convert some or all of the principal balance of the note into the Company’s common stock at $0.30 per share. In consideration of the loan to the Company, the Company issued a five-year warrant to purchase 833,330 shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.40 per share and a five-year warrant to purchase from the Company 12,500,000 shares of the common stock of PEI owned by the Company at an exercise price of $0.02 per share. The warrant shares are before the anticipated 1:25 reverse split of the Common Stock of PEI. All of the underlying shares related to this note carry “piggyback” registration rights. As of the filing of this report, this note is in default.

On May 11, 2012, SMDI issued three promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $350,000. These notes bear interest at 10% with principal and interest due on the earlier of November 11, 2012, or the receipt by the Company of $2,000,000 or more of gross proceeds from the sale of equity securities. These notes are secured by the assets of the Company on a pari passu basis with the holders of the Company’s Series E Preferred Stock. As of the filing of this report, this note is in default.

Between July and September 2012, the Company issued notes payable to 11 investors dated July 9, 2012 with maturity date on the earlier of a $2 million capital raise by the Company, or February 6, 2013, and bear interest at 8%. These notes are unsecured.

Interest expense on these notes for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 was $36,484 and $26,510, respectively. Interest expense on these notes for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was $22,161 and $4,500, respectively.

12.  Shareholders’ Deficit

Series C 10% Preferred Stock

As of December 31, 2011, all Series C Preferred Stock had been converted into common stock.

Series D 10% Preferred Stock

The Company had 18,999 shares of its Series D 10% Preferred Stock (“Series D”) outstanding as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.  Each share of Series D sold for $30, can be converted at any time into 60 shares of common stock and has voting rights of 60 shares of common stock.  In connection with the issuance of Series D, the Company issued warrants to purchase 179,970 shares of common stock.  The warrants have a life of five years to purchase a share of common stock for $1.00 and expire between November 2015 and April 2016.  The Series D has liquidation preference over common stock at a liquidation value of $30 and pays a cumulative dividend of 10% per year, payable on July 31 and December 31 of each year that the Series D is outstanding.  Interest payments may be made in cash or in common stock at the discretion of the Company.  The Series D automatically convert into 60 shares of common stock when the closing price for a share of common stock is $5.00 or above and the average daily trading volume for the 10 previous trading days is above 200,000 shares.  Given the losses recorded by the Company, the stock equivalents related to the Series D are not included in the calculation of earnings per share since the effect of such inclusion would be antidilutive.

Since the Series D contains an embedded conversion feature, the Company performed an analysis of the Series C under ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging.”  This analysis determined that the embedded conversion feature was not required to be bifurcated and accounted separately from the Series D because the economic risks and characteristics of the embedded conversion feature were clearly and closely related to the economic risks and characteristics of the host contract Series D, namely the risks of the common stock.  The value of the BCF was $26,945 which was charged to equity at the time of issuance and was not included in the calculation of earnings per share.  The BCF was calculated as the difference of the FV of the conversion price and the intrinsic value of the preferred shares.

The Series D contains a share adjustment provision that provides for additional shares to be issued if the thirty-day volume weighted average price of the Company’s common stock (“VWAP”) is between $0.50 and $1.00 180 days after the purchase of Series D.  If the VWAP is above $1.00, no action is taken.  If the VWAP is between $0.50 to $1.00, additional shares are issued to the holder such that the total of the number of common shares issuable upon conversion, which is the number of Series D shares times 60 (“Conversion Shares”), plus the additional shares together equals the VWAP price equals the Conversion Shares times $1.00.  If the VWAP is below $0.50 the number of additional shares are calculated as if the price were $0.50, not the actual VWAP.  Once this 180-day period passes and the Company has issued the appropriate shares, if any, then Price Protection provisions of this Agreement will expire and the Company will be completely released from any future claims by the Purchaser related to this share adjustment provision.  The price protection provisions have expired.

14

The Company determined that derivative accounting for the embedded conversion and the share adjustment features was not required pursuant to ASC 815-10-15-74 because these features are indexed to the Company’s own stock under ASC 815-40-15 (EITF Issue 07-5); the features can be classified in shareholders’ equity under ASC 815-40 (EITF Issue 00-19, paragraphs 1-11)  and that Series D is classified as a conventional convertible so the features can be classified in stockholders’ equity under ASC 815-40 (Issue 00-19, paragraphs 12-32).  The determination was made by the Company that the Series D is a conventional convertible because the freestanding warrant is indexed to the company’s own stock under ASC 815-40-15 (EITF Issue 07-5); the freestanding warrant is classified in shareholders’ equity under ASC 815-40 (Issue 00-19, paragraphs 1-32); and the financial instrument does not include embedded puts and/or calls or other features that require bifurcation from the host contract under ASC 815.

As of September 30, 2012 there were 18,999 shares of Series D Preferred Stock outstanding.   

Series E 5% Preferred Stock

On May 24, 2011, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with eight investors (collectively, the “Investors”) pursuant to which the Company sold the Investors 8,700 shares of a new series of convertible preferred stock designated as Series E Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series E”), the terms of which are set forth in the Certificate of Designations of Series E Preferred Stock (the “Certificate”), for $1,000 per share, or $8,700,000 in the aggregate. As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, there were 8,450 and 8,500 shares of Series E outstanding.

In connection with the sale of the Preferred Shares, the Company also agreed to issue to the Investors (a) warrants (“A Warrants”) to purchase up to one additional share of Common Stock for each share of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares, and (b) warrants (“B Warrants”) to purchase up to 0.50 additional shares of Common Stock for each share of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares. The Warrants are exercisable for five years commencing on the date of first issuance and are exercisable only for cash if there is an effective registration statement covering the resale of the shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. In the absence of such a registration statement, the Warrants are exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis at the option of the holder thereof. The exercise price of the A Warrant is $0.30 per share and the B Warrant has an exercise price of $0.30 per share, subject in each case to full ratchet anti-dilution protection. The exercise price of the A Warrant was originally $0.65 and the exercise price of the B Warrant was originally $1.00 but were adjusted pursuant to the full ratchet anti-dilution protection when $249,999 of notes were issued on April 4, 2012 that contained a $0.30 conversion feature.

Pursuant to the Certificate, the Preferred Shares bear a dividend of 5%, payable quarterly in cash, or, if the dividend shares are registered for resale, in shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The effective conversion rate for the Preferred Shares was originally is $0.40 per share of Common Stock, but was adjusted to $0.30 pursuant to the full ratchet anti-dilution protection mentioned above. The Preferred Shares have voting rights on an as-converted to Common Stock basis, with the Investors (subject to certain exceptions) having the right to elect two members to the Company’s Board of Directors (“BOD”) for so long as at least 50% of the total number of Preferred Shares purchased pursuant to the Purchase Agreement are outstanding, and the right to elect one member to the Company’s BOD for so long as least 25% but less than 50% of the total number of Preferred Shares issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement are outstanding. The Company is required to redeem any unconverted Preferred Shares on the fifth anniversary of the date of first issuance of the Preferred Shares, and has the right to require conversion at any time if the average daily trading value for any 20 consecutive trading days exceeds $250,000 and the weighted average price per share is at least $2.50 for each of those 20 consecutive trading days.

To secure the Company’s obligation to redeem the Preferred Shares, the Company entered into a Security Agreement dated May 24, 2011, pursuant to which the Company agreed to grant the holders of the Preferred Shares a first priority security interest in all of its assets.

The Company filed a registration statement with the SEC covering the resale of the shares (a) issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares or exercise of the Warrants, (b) issued as dividends payable in shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Certificate, and (c) issuable upon exercise of the Placement Agent Warrants. This registration statement was declared effective on February 13, 2012. Upon the occurrence of certain events set forth in the Purchase Agreement, including the failure to timely file the registration statement or have the registration statement timely declared effective, the Company will pay to the Investors cash of 1% of the aggregate purchase price of the Series E Preferred Stock and Warrants for each 30-day period during such default; provided, however, that the payments will not exceed 10% of the aggregate purchase price.

As of September 30, 2012 there were 8,450 shares of Series E Preferred Stock outstanding.   

Common Stock

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, there were no sales of the Company’s common stock. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company raised $3,609,359 from the issuance of 7,957,141 shares of common stock.

Stock Options

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company cancelled 4,660,994 options for employees whose employment had been terminated and granted 2,300,000 options to Jerold Rubinstein, the Company’s new Chairman of the Board and CEO on June 28, 2012, pursuant to an employment contract, 450,000 options to a director and 300,000 options to an officer. These options have a strike price of $0.35 - $0.38, which were the closing prices of the Company’s common stock on the day of grant and a five-year life. Mr. Rubinstein’s options vest monthly over a twelve-month period unless the employment contract is terminated for any reason, at which time the options vest in full. The director’s options vest ratably over a 36-month period, and the officer’s options vest one third at grant, one third after the first year and one third after the second year. The Black Scholes value of these options was $706,250 which is being amortized over the respective vesting periods.  The following assumptions were used for the Black Scholes calculation to determine this expense:

Estimated fair value of underlying common stock	$0.35 - $0.38
Remaining life	5.0
Risk-free interest rate	0.69% - 0.80%
Expected volatility	80% - 89%

The Black Scholes value of these warrants is $4,133,690, which is being recognized over the twelve to twenty-four months of the contracts.  The following assumptions were used for the Black Scholes calculation to determine this expense:

13.  Commitments and Contingencies

Office Space Rental

On May 1, 2009, the Company entered into a lease for approximately 1,800 square feet of office space in Santa Barbara, California for use as its executive offices.  This lease was amended on July 21, 2009 and expires on December 31, 2013 with a three-year renewal term available at an initial rent plus common area charges of $5,767 per month. The Company has vacated this space as of August 31, 2012 and accrued a year of rent payments as of June 30, 2012 to provide for the Company’s estimated liability before a new tenant takes over the lease liability.

Rent expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 was $209,749 and $105,193 respectively. Rent expense for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 was $12,351 and $58,735 respectively.

Employment and Consulting Contracts

Effective June 28, 2012, an existing director of the Company and Chairman of the Company’s Audit Committee, was elected by the Company’s board of directors as Chairman of the Board, CEO and a director of the Company’s subsidiaries. The Board of Directors of PEI elected him as Chairman of the Board and CEO. Under the terms of an employment agreement dated June 28, 2012, this CEO will receive an annual salary of $250,000 per year and will continue to serve on the Company’s board of directors and as Chairman of the Company’s Audit Committee and shall continue to receive his compensation for such services. The term of this agreement is six months with an automatic six month extension unless the Company provides written notice of non-renewal 30 days prior to the end of the initial six-month term. This executive has been granted options to purchase 2,300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.35 per share, which was the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the day of option grant. These options vest monthly over a twelve-month period. In the event the Company does not renew the second six month period, the executive resigns or the Company terminates the executive’s employment without cause, all options will immediately vest and the executive will receive all unpaid salary for the full twelve month period.

On June 28, 2012, Paul Feller, the Company’s former Chairman of the Board and CEO, resigned from all positions with the Company and its subsidiaries, including PEI. In connection therewith, pursuant to a Separation and Release Agreement, the Company and this former employee entered into a new Consulting Agreement for a term of two years at an annual salary of $250,000, subject to the Company raising at least $2,000,000 in funding. Under the Consulting Agreement, this former employee agreed to provide services in the area of business development, fund-raising and the evaluation of asset/event acquisitions to be done at the discretion of the Board of Directors. As noted in Footnote 6 “Receivable from Former Officer and Director,” the Company has a receivable from Mr. Feller of $538,500.

On August 1, 2012, the employment contract between the Company and its CFO expired and the Company and this officer are negotiating a replacement contract.

14.  Segment Information

Each event and the Stratus White program is considered an operating segment pursuant to ASC 280 since each is budgeted separately and results of each event and the Stratus White program are tracked separately to provide the chief operating decision maker information to assess and manage each event and the Stratus White program.

The characteristics of the Stratus White program are different than the events, so that operating segment is considered a reporting segment.  The events share similar economic characteristics and are aggregated into a reporting segment pursuant to paragraph 17 of ASC 280.  All of the events provide entertainment and the logistics and production processes and methods for each event are similar:  sponsorship sales, ticket and concession sales, security, stages, public address systems and the like.  While the demographic characteristics of the audience can vary by event, all events cater to consumer entertainment.

A summary of results by segment is as follows:

15.  ProElite, Inc.

Effective October 21, 2009, the Company entered into a Strategic Investment Agreement with PEI pursuant to which PEI sold to the Company shares of PEI’s Series A Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Shares”). The transaction closed on June 14, 2011. The Preferred Shares are convertible into the Common Stock of PEI. The amount of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion on a cumulative basis is equal to 95% of the sum of (a) the issued and outstanding shares of PEI as of the closing plus (b) any shares of PEI Common Stock issued after the closing upon exercise or conversion of any derivative securities of PEI outstanding as of the closing, subject to any adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations etc. and, in all cases, after giving effect to the shares issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares. The purchase price of the Preferred Shares was $2,000,000. At the close, all of the previous directors of PEI resigned and the board of directors of PEI consists of two designees of the Company and one designee of PEI. Paul Feller, the Company’s CEO at that time, became PEI’s CEO. Certain present and former key PEI executives continued with PEI. Upon the close of the transaction, the Company recorded goodwill of $1,935,621. The Company also recorded non-controlling interest of $105,263 due to negative equity of PEI at June 30, 2011. The Company has consolidated the balance sheet of PEI as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. The results of operations of PEI for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2012 were consolidated into the Company’s results of operations.

The pro forma financial information presented below show the consolidated operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 of the Company as if the PEI acquisition had occurred as of January 1, 2011:

16.  Related Party Transactions

Pursuant to an investigation conducted in March 2012 directed by the Company’s Board of Directors, it was determined that Paul Feller, the Company’s former Chairman and CEO, received $640,000 in December 2010 in connection with a sale of the Company’s common stock he arranged with an outside investor. This sale was fulfilled with issuance of 2,540,000 shares of common stock issued directly by the Company. Accordingly, the Company recorded a gross receivable of $640,000 from Mr. Feller in connection with this transaction. Mr. Feller resigned from the Company on June 28, 2012.

As of December 31, 2011, this gross receivable of $640,000 was presented net of $398,790 of accrued salary, $115,000 of commissions that Mr. Feller represented in writing were paid in this transaction, $30,540 of business expenses submitted by Mr. Feller that met Company and IRS guidelines and $133,770 of business expenses that Mr. Feller represented in writing he would provide, for a net receivable of zero. As of September 30, 2012, this gross receivable of $640,000 was increased by $4,622 of personal expenses for Mr. Feller paid with Company funds, including $4,355 of registration fees paid by the Company for the vintage automobile that remains in Mr. Feller’s possession. This gross receivable of $682,722 is presented net of $30,540 of approved business expenses and $113,667 in deferred salary. Additional evidence obtained in October 2012 confirmed that the $115,000 in commissions for the stock sales were not valid commissions and this amount was removed as an offset to the gross receivable for September 30, 2012. Pursuant to a Separation and Release Agreement dated June 28, 2012 and signed by Mr. Feller on August 9, 2012 (“Separation Agreement”), Mr. Feller agreed to waive his rights to any deferred salary prior to October 1, 2011. Accordingly, the amount of deferred salary eligible for offset to the gross receivable was reduced from $398,790 at December 31, 2011 to $113,667 at September 30, 2012, which consists of $125,000 in deferred salary between October 1, 2011 and June 28, 2012, less $11,333 paid in salary during that period. In addition, Mr. Feller did not submit expense reports to support the $133,770 of expenses in the time provided for in the Separation Agreement, so that amount was removed as an offset to his receivable for September 30, 2012.

Effective July 1, 2011, each board member is entitled to an annual payment of $50,000, with the chairman of the audit committee receiving an additional $100,000 per annum and the chairman of the compensation committee receiving an additional $50,000 per annum. Mr. Rubinstein received a grant of 450,000 shares of restricted common stock that vest over a 36 month period and an additional grant of 450,000 shares of restricted common stock as chairman of the audit committee that vest over a 36 month period. Mr. Golenberg received a grant of 450,000 shares of restricted common stock as chairman of the compensation committee that vests over a 36 month period that started in July 2011. On December 28, 2010, the Board of Directors elected to cancel a total of 1,550,000 options granted to Messrs. Cross and Dunleavy and Golenberg in 2009 for board service and to Mr. Golenberg in 2009 and 2010 as chairman of the audit committee, and replace those options with grants of 540,833 shares of restricted stock, which was equal to 50% of the number of vested options as of July 1, 2011. These grants vest one-third on January 1, 2012, one-third on January 1, 2013 and one-third on January 1, 2014. Pursuant to these grants, Mr. Cross received a grant of 162,500 shares of restricted stock, of which 54,167 shares vested on January 1, 2012; Mr. Dunleavy received a grant of 130,000 shares of restricted stock, of which 43,333 shares vested on January 1, 2012; and Mr. Golenberg received a grant of 248,333 shares of restricted stock, of which 82,778 shares vested on January 1, 2012.

17.  Subsequent Events

Subsequent to September 30, 2012, Stratus Media Group, Inc. entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of October 3, 2012 with one investor pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell to the Investor shares of the Company's Series E Convertible Preferred Stock the terms of which are set forth in the Amended and Restated Certificate of Designations of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock for a purchase price of $1,000 per share, or $1,000,000 in the aggregate. In connection with the sale of the Preferred Shares, the Company also agreed to issue to the Investor (a) warrants (“A Warrants”) to purchase up to one additional share of the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”) for each share of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares, and (b) warrants (“B Warrants,” and, together with the A Warrants, the "Warrants") to purchase up to 0.50 additional shares of Common Stock for each share of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares. The Warrants are exercisable for five years commencing on the date of first issuance and are exercisable only for cash if there is an effective registration statement covering the resale of the shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. In the absence of such a registration statement, the Warrants are exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis at the option of the holder thereof. The exercise price of the Warrants is $0.30 per share, subject to full ratchet anti-dilution protection. Pursuant to the Amended Certificate, the Preferred Shares bear a dividend of 5% per annum, payable quarterly in cash, or, if the dividend shares are registered for resale, in shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The effective conversion rate for the Preferred Shares is $0.30 per share of Common Stock, subject to full ratchet anti-dilution protection. The Preferred Shares have voting rights on an as-converted to Common Stock basis. The Company is required to redeem any unconverted Preferred Shares on the fifth anniversary of the date of first issuance of shares of Preferred Stock, and has the right to require conversion at any time if the average daily trading value of shares of Common Stock for any twenty consecutive trading days exceeds $250,000 and the weighted average price per share is at least $2.50 for each of those twenty consecutive trading days. To secure the Company’s obligation to redeem the Preferred Shares, the Company entered into a Security Agreement dated as of October 3, 2012, pursuant to which the Company has agreed to grant the holders of the Preferred Shares a security interest in all of its assets, subject to the security interest granted by the Company in May 2011 to prior investors in the Preferred Stock. The Company has agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC covering the resale of the shares (a) issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares and exercise of the Warrants, and (b) issued as dividends payable in shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Amended Certificate. Upon the occurrence of certain events set forth in the Purchase Agreement, including the failure to timely file the registration statement or have the registration statement timely declared effective, the Company will pay to the Investor an amount of cash equal to 1% of the aggregate purchase price of the Preferred Shares, Warrants and shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Preferred Shares, as the case may be, held by the Investor as of the date of such event, for each 30-day period during such default; provided, however, that the payments will not exceed 10% of the aggregate purchase price.

After September 30, 2012, $500,000 was advanced to ProElite pursuant to a convertible promissory note that bears interest at 7% and is due in October 2013. If ProElite or the Company enter into a financing of greater than $2,000,000 prior to this due date, this note will automatically convert to common stock at 50% of the stock price used in such financing. The note is secured by the assets of ProElite.

Description of Business

Overview

On March 14, 2008, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as August 20, 2007 between Feris International, Inc. (“Feris”) and Pro Sports & Entertainment, Inc. (“PSEI”), Feris issued 49,500,000 shares of its common stock for all of the issued and outstanding shares of PSEI, resulting in PSEI becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Feris and the surviving entity for accounting purposes (“Reverse Merger”).  In July 2008, Feris’ corporate name was changed to Stratus Media Group, Inc. (“Company”, “Stratus”, or “SMDI”).  

PSEI, a California corporation, was organized on November 23, 1998 and specializes in sports and entertainment events that it owns, operates, manages, markets and sells in national markets.  PSEI acquired the business of Stratus Rewards, LLC (“Stratus White”) in August 2005 and Stratus White is a wholly-owned subsidiary of PSEI.  Stratus White is a credit card rewards program that uses the Visa card platform to offers a unique luxury rewards redemption program, including private jet travel, premium travel opportunities, exclusive events and luxury merchandise.  

In June 2011, the Company acquired 95% ownership in ProElite, Inc., a New Jersey corporation (“ProElite or “PEI”), that organizes and promotes mixed martial arts (“MMA”) matches.  PEI’s common stock is available on the OTC Market (“Pink Sheets”) under the symbol PELE.PK.  In June 2011, SMDI acquired Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of PEI which is convertible into shares of PEI’s Common Stock equal to approximately 95% of PEI’s outstanding Common Stock. The Preferred Shares have voting rights on an as-converted basis. SMDI intends to convert the Preferred Shares as soon as practicable after PEI effects a reverse split of 1:25.  All Share information and the exercise price of the PEI Warrant assumes the reverse split and is on a post-reverse split basis.

Current Status

As a result of the lack of working capital, Stratus has no events currently scheduled pending receipt of sufficient funds from financings which it is currently pursuing.  In the absence of obtaining sufficient funds, Stratus will be unable to schedule or reschedule some or all of its events and implement its business plan.

Stratus Business Plan

The business plan of Stratus is to operate the Stratus White program and to own and realize from our events all available event  revenue  rights from tickets/admissions, corporate sponsorship, television, print, radio, Internet, merchandising, and hospitality. With additional funding, the objective of management is to build a profitable business by implementing an aggressive acquisition growth plan to acquire quality companies, build corporate infrastructure, and increase organic growth.  The plan is to leverage operational efficiencies across an expanded portfolio of events to reduce costs and increase revenues.  The Company’s management is currently reviewing all the Company’s existing businesses to determine which businesses to activate and when, depending on the availability of capital. As of September 30, 2012, the Company elected to not pursue the Beverly Hills Concours, Maui Music Festival and Freedom Bowl events and took $197,500 of impairment charges to bring the value of these events to zero.

22

Stratus plans to use a “roll up” strategy, targeting sports and live entertainment events and companies that are independently owned and operated or being divested by larger companies with the plan to aggregate them into one large leading live entertainment company.  The strategy is to purchase these events for approximately four to six times Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”) of the events, with the expectation that the combined EBITDA of the Company from these events will receive a higher valuation multiple in the public markets.

Assuming the availability of capital, Stratus is targeting acquisitions of event properties.  The goal is to aggressively build-up a critical mass of events, venues and companies that allow for numerous cross-event synergies.  Specifically:

· On the expense side, to share sales, financial and operations resources across multiple events, creating economies of scale, increasing the Company’s purchasing power, eliminating duplicative costs, and bringing standardized operating and financial procedures to all events, thus increasing the margins of all events.

· On the revenue side, to present advertisers and corporate sponsors an exciting and diverse menu of demographics and programming that allows sponsors “one stop shopping” rather than having to deal with each event on its own, and in so doing, convert these sponsors into “strategic partners.”

With these core operational synergies and subject to available capital, Stratus intends to (1) expand its acquisition strategy of additional live sports and entertainment events and companies, (2) create entirely new event properties on the forefront of the “experience economy” and thus tap into people’s lifestyle passions, and (3) cross-promote the Stratus White Visa card with these events to enhance the results of the card and event businesses.

The business plan of Stratus is to provide integrated event management, television programming, marketing, talent representation and consulting services in the sports and other live entertainment industries.  Stratus’s event management, television programming and marketing services may involve:

· Managing sporting events, such as college bowl games, golf tournaments and auto racing team and events;

· Managing live entertainment events, such as music festivals, car shows and fashion shows;

· Producing television programs, principally sports entertainment and live entertainment programs; and

· Marketing athletes, models and entertainers and organizations.

The following discussion relates to the operations of Stratus and should be read in conjunction with the Notes to Financial Statements.

Description of our Revenues, Costs and Expenses

Revenues

Our past revenues included event revenues from ticket sales, sponsorships, concessions and merchandise, which are recorded when the event occurs, and Stratus revenues from membership fees, fees on purchases and interest income earned on the redemption trust.  Membership fees and related expenses are amortized over the 12 month period and fees from purchases and interest income are recorded when they occur.

Gross Profit (Loss)

Our gross profit represents revenues less the cost of revenues. Our event cost of revenues consists of the costs renting the venue, structures at the venue, concessions, and temporary personnel hired for the event.  

Operating Expenses

Our selling, general and administrative expenses include personnel, rent, travel, office and other costs for selling and promoting events and running the administrative functions of the Company.  Legal and professional services are paid to outside attorneys, auditors and consultants are broken out separately given the size of these expenses relative to selling, general and administrative expenses. Operating expenses also include expenses for impairment of goodwill, fair value expenses for issuing common stock for consideration less than the number of shares issued valued at market closing price on the day of issuance, and Black-Scholes expenses for options and warrants.

23

Interest Expense

Our interest expense results from accruing interest for notes payable and preferred stock.

Critical Accounting Policies

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist of goodwill from acquisitions of ProElite and Stratus White Visa Card (“Stratus White”). Goodwill is the excess of the cost of an acquired entity over the net amounts assigned to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. We apply FASB ASC Topic 350 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, which requires allocating goodwill to each reporting unit and testing for impairment using a two-step approach.

The Company purchased several events that are recorded on the Company’s balance sheet as intangible assets at the consideration paid for such assets, which generally include licensing rights, naming rights, merchandising rights and the right to hold such event in particular geographic locations.  There was no goodwill assigned to any of these events and the value of the consideration paid for each event is considered to be the value for each related intangible asset before any reductions for impairment.   Each event has separate accounts for tracking revenues and expenses per event and a separate account to track the asset valuation.

A portion of the consideration used to purchase the Stratus White card program was allocated to specific assets, as disclosed in the footnotes to the financial statements, with the difference between the specific assets and the total consideration paid for the program being allocated to goodwill.

The Company reviews the value of intangible assets and related goodwill as part of its annual reporting process, which generally occurs in February or March of each calendar year.  In between valuations, the Company conducts additional tests if circumstances warrant such testing.  As of September 30, 2012, the Company elected to not pursue the Beverly Hills Concours, Maui Music Festival and Freedom Bowl events and took $197,500 of impairment charges to bring the value of these events to zero.

To review the value of intangible assets and related goodwill, the Company compares discounted cash flow forecasts with the stated value of the assets on the balance sheet.

The events are forecasted based on historical results for those events, adjusted over time for the assumed synergies expected from discounts from purchases of goods and services from a number of events rather than from each event on its own, and for synergies resulting from the expected ability to provide sponsors with benefits from sponsoring multiple events with a single point of contact.

These forecasts are discounted at a range of discount rates determined by taking the risk-free interest rate at the time of valuation, plus premiums for equity risk and small companies in general, factors specific to the Company and the business that range from 10.0% for events to 40% for the Stratus White card.  The total discount rates ranged from 35% for events to 65% for the Stratus White program.  Terminal values are determined by taking cash flows in year five of the forecast, then applying an annual growth of 2.2% to 4.1% for the next seven years and discounting that stream of cash flows by the discount rate used for that section of the business.

If the Company determines that the discount factor for cash flows should be increased, or the event will not be able to being operations when planned, it is possible that the values for the intangible assets currently on the balance sheet could be substantially reduced or eliminated, which could result in a maximum charge to operations of the current carrying value of the intangible assets of $3,161,966.

Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2012 (“Current Period”) were $143,334, a decrease of $106,867, or 143%, from $250,201 for the same three month period ended September 30, 2011 (“Prior Period”). ProElite royalty payments were $143,334 in the Current Period, an increase of $36,334, or 34%, from $107,000 in the Prior Period. Revenues in the Prior Period also included $142,059 from PEI live events and $1,142 from PEI merchandise sales, which were not repeated in the Current Period.   

Gross Profit

Gross profit in the Current Period was $142,484 compared to a gross loss of $3,609 for the same period of 2011. This change from the prior period relates to costs to conduct a ProElite event in the third quarter of 2011.

24

Operating Expenses

Overall operating expenses for the Current Period were $3,568,734, a decrease of $567,940, or 14% from $4,136,674 during the Prior Period.  This decrease was primarily due to a reduction in general and administrative expense of $1,496,351 and $802,755 reduction in legal and professional services, offset by an increase in warrants, options and stock expense of $1,545,625. General and administrative expense reductions from the Prior Period to the Current Period were related to lower levels of staffing and business activity, primarily with a $315,996 reduction in travel and entertainment, and a $172,112 reduction in marketing and website expenses. Lower legal and professional expense reductions in the Current Period were primarily related to lower levels of activity related to outside legal actions and reduced use of consultants.

Impairment of intangible assets was $197,500 for the Current Period, compared with $0 in the Prior Period. During the Current Period, the Company elected to not pursue the Beverly Hills Concours, Maui Music Festival and Freedom Bowl events and took $197,500 of impairment charges to bring the value of these events to zero, with no such charges in the Prior Period.

Warrants, options and stock expense was increased by $1,545,625 in the Current Period, primarily from the issuance of 13,530,000 warrants in the three months ended September 30, 2012 for consulting and financial advisory work relating to fundraising, which have a total Black Scholes expense of $4,133,690 that is being amortized over a year and resulted in $902,990 of expense in the Current Period. Quarterly expense for these warrants will be $946,900 for each of the quarters ending December 31, 2012 and March 31, 2013, $843,050 for the quarter ending June 30, 2013 and $390,000 for the quarter ending September 30, 2013.

In the nine months ended September 30, 2012, there were options issued for 3,050,000 shares, of which 2,300,000 shares vest over one year and the remainder over three years. The total Black Scholes expense for these options was $706,520, of which $214,547 was recognized for the Current Period. Quarterly expense for these options will be $219,693 for each of the quarters ending December 31, 2012, March 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, and $92,083 for the quarter ending September 30, 2013.

Starting July 1, 2011, existing options for directors were replaced with restricted stock grants totaling 3,240,833 shares, which was increased by 450,000 shares with the addition of a new director in August 2012 for a total of 3,690,833 shares. The total expense for these stock grants was $1,791,417, which is being amortized over two and a half years following an initial six-month period of non-vesting. Expense for the Current Period was $756,637, which included an adjustment for this initial vesting period and an accelerated vesting of shares previously granted to a new board member as an advisory member. Quarterly expense for these restricted shares will be $149,285 per quarter from the fourth quarter ending December 31, 2012 to the third quarter ending September 30, 2013.

Interest and Other Expense

Other income was $133,770 for the Current Period compared to $0 for the same period of 2011, related to Paul Feller, the Company’s former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, not turning in expense reports in the time frame specified in his separation agreement and thus not qualifying for reimbursement. This amount had originally been taken from a reserve established for Mr. Feller’s potential expenses. Since this reserve was not intended for use by any other officers or directors, it was reclassed to other income rather than returning this amount to the reserve.

Total interest expense was $172,057 in the Current Period compared with an interest expense of $195,705 in the Prior Period, primarily from a reduction in other debt from the Prior Period to the Current Period. Interest on the Series E Preferred shares were similar in the Current Period as the Prior Period as the balances of outstanding Series E Preferred shares were similar for each quarter.

Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012

Revenues

Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 (“Current Period”) were $374,542, an increase of $124,34`, or 50%, compared to $250,201 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 (“Prior Period”), all of which were generated by ProElite.   Revenues for the Current Period consisted of $88,877 for life events and $285,665 for royalty payments and revenues for the Prior Period consisted of $142,059 for live events and $108,142 for royalty payments.

Gross profit

Gross profit was $138,739 for the Current Period compared to a loss of $3,609 for the Prior Period. Event revenues and costs were consistent between years and the profit increase is from additional royalty payments received during the first nine months of 2012.

25

Operating Expenses

Overall operating expenses for the Current Period were $8,359,830, an increase of $492,055, or 6%, from $7,867,775 in the Prior Period.  In the Current Period, general and administrative expenses were down $879,599, or 19%, legal and professional expenses were up by $96,440, or 5% and warrants and options expense was up by $1,096,673, or 90%.

The reduction of $879,599 in general and administrative expenses in the Current Period was primarily due to a $435,540 reduction in travel and entertainment expenses and a $214,723 reduction in marketing, promotion and website expenses, along with reductions in expenses related to reduced staffing and business activity. Legal and professional services increased by $96,440 as consulting fees increased by $176,440 related to stock issued for management consulting services, $360,000 accrued for management consultants and $150,000 incurred in consulting for the Perugia International Film Festival, offset by a $312,069 reduction in legal fees and a $335,941 reduction in other consulting expenses.

Impairment of intangible assets was $197,500 for the Current Period, compared with $0 in the Prior Period. During the Current Period, the Company elected to not pursue the Beverly Hills Concours, Maui Music Festival and Freedom Bowl events and took $197,500 of impairment charges to bring the value of these events to zero, with no such charges in the Prior Period.

Warrants, options and stock expense was increased by $1,096,643 in the Current Period, primarily from the issuance of 13,530,000 warrants in the Current Period for consulting and financial advisory work relating to fundraising, which have a total Black Scholes expense of $4,133,690 that is being amortized over a year and resulted in $1,006,840 of expense in the Current Period. Quarterly expense for these warrants will be $946,900 for each of the quarters ending December 31, 2012 and March 31, 2013, $843,050 for the quarter ending June 30, 2013 and $390,000 for the quarter ending September 30, 2013.

In the nine months ended September 30, 2012, there were options issued for 3,050,000 shares, of which 2,300,000 shares vest over one year and the remainder over three years. The total Black Scholes expense for these options was $706,520, of which $366,213 was recognized for the Current Period. Quarterly expense for these options will be $219,693 for each of the quarters ending December 31, 2012, March 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, and $92,083 for the quarter ending September 30, 2013.

Starting July 1, 2011, existing options for directors were replaced with restricted stock grants totaling 3,240,833 shares, which was increased by 450,000 shares with the addition of a new director in August 2012 for a total of 3,690,833 shares. The total expense for these stock grants was $1,791,417, which is being amortized over two and a half years following an initial six-month period of non-vesting. Expense for the Current Period was $938,243, which included an adjustment for this initial vesting period and an accelerated vesting of shares previously granted to a new board member as an advisory member. Quarterly expense for these restricted shares will be $149,285 per quarter from the fourth quarter ending December 31, 2012 to the third quarter ending September 30, 2013.

Interest and Other Expense

Other expense was $626,926 in the Current Period compared with other income of $0 in the Prior Period. This increase is primarily related to $452,041 of estimated rent liability for facilities no longer occupied by the Company and $300,000 potential damage liability for water damage at one of the Company’s facilities that may not be covered by insurance, offset by $133,770. This offset is related to Paul Feller, the Company’s former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, not turning in expense reports in the time frame specified in his separation agreement and thus being ineligible for reimbursement. This amount had originally been taken from a reserve established for Mr. Feller’s potential expenses. Since this reserve was not intended for use by any other officers or directors, it was reclassed as other income rather than returning this amount to the reserve.

Interest expense was $469,848 in the Current Period, an increase of $145,304 from $324,544 in the Prior Period, primarily for interest associated with the Series E Preferred Stock that was outstanding for nine months in the Current Period and four months in the Prior Period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The report of our independent registered public accounting firm on our financial statements for the year ended 2011 contains an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as a result of recurring losses, a working capital deficiency, and negative cash flows. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that would be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.

The Company is actively pursuing equity capital and is targeting a raise of $10 million or more.  The proceeds raised will be used for operational expenses, settling existing liabilities, acquisitions and selling expenses.  Due to our history of operating losses and the current credit constraints in the capital markets, we cannot assure you that such financing will be available to us on favorable terms, or at all.   If we cannot obtain such financing, we will be unable to schedule or recommence our events and credit card operations, all of which are currently on hold, we may not be able to continue as a going concern, and we may become unable to satisfy our obligations to our creditors. In such an event we will need to enter into discussions with our creditors to settle, or otherwise seek relief from, our obligations.

26

On January 25, 2012, the Company received $1,000,000 for a note payable to a shareholder repayable upon the earlier of completion of $1,000,000 in funding, or May 24, 2012, plus interest at 0.19%, secured by the assets of ProElite. This note is in default. The noteholder has a warrant to purchase ProElite shares at $0.05 per share that increases each month when the loan is in default. This note is in default. As of September 30, 2012, he had a resulting warrant to purchase 15.5 percent of ProElite.

On April 4, 2012, the Company issued a promissory note for $249,999. This note bears interest at 10% with principal and interest due on October 4, 2012. Until the note is paid, the holder has the right to convert some or all of the principal balance of the note into the Company’s common stock at $0.30 per share. In consideration of the loan to the Company, the Company issued a five-year warrant to purchase 833,330 shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.40 per share and a five-year warrant to purchase from the Company 12,500,000 shares of the Common Stock of PEI owned by the Company at an exercise price of $0.02 per share. The warrant shares are before the anticipated 1:25 reverse split of the Common Stock of PEI. All of the underlying shares related to this note carry “piggyback” registration rights. This note is in default.

On May 11, 2012, the Company issued three promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $350,000. These notes bear interest at 10% with principal and interest due on the earlier of November 11, 2012, or the receipt by the Company of $2,000,000 or more of gross proceeds from the sale of equity securities. These notes are secured by the assets of the Company on a pari passu basis with the holders of the Company’s Series E Preferred Stock. This note is in default.

The Company received $309,000 for notes payable to 11 investors dated July 9, 2012 with maturity date on the earlier of a $2 million capital raise by the company, or February 6, 2013 and bear interest at 8%. These notes are unsecured.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Not applicable

ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

The term “disclosure controls and procedures” means controls and other procedures of the Company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Act (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined) in Exchange Act Rules 13a – 15(c) and 15d – 15(e)).  Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered in this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based on the following material weaknesses:

1. Lack of segregation of duties and check and balances. 

2. Lack of written controls and procedures, particularly with regard to entering into contracts and commitments by the Company.

3. Use of an accounting software package that lacks a rigorous set of software and change controls.  While this software is a proven industry standard and is in widespread use, it allows one person to make significant changes without oversight or approval.

4.  Until April 2012, the ability of the Company’s former principal executive officer to set up and approve wire transfers and internal transfers from the Company’s bank account to the personal bank account of the former principal executive officer at the same bank.

Our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer do not expect that our disclosure controls or internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. Although our disclosure controls and procedures were designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, a control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance that the objectives of the system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented if there exists in an individual a desire to do so. There can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”) that occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 from those reported in our 2011 Form 10-K that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our ICFR.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In March 2011, four of our shareholders filed an action in Superior Court of California, in Santa Barbara County (lead plaintiff is Howell Douglas Wood (“Wood”)), against us, our Chief Executive Officer at that time (“CEO”), Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) and its outside directors. The complaint alleges violations of the California Corporations Code relating to the issuance of securities to the plaintiffs, fraud, breach of fiduciary duty, breach of contract, and breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing relating to the handling of requests by the plaintiffs to sell their shares. The complaint seeks unspecified compensatory and punitive damages, recovery of attorney fees and costs and certain equitable relief. In motions filed with the Court, the Company took the position that the claims were without merit, and aggressively defended the action. In October 2012, the parties reached an agreement whereby the matter has been resolved to the parties’ mutual satisfaction, and the Company anticipates that the lawsuit will be dismissed within the next 60 days of the filing of this report.

In November 2011, 12 additional shareholders filed an action in Superior Court of California, in Santa Barbara County (lead plaintiff is Jeffrey Tuttle), against us, our then CEO, CFO and its outside directors. This complaint was filed by the same law firms as the Wood complaint, and is similar to the Wood complaint.  As with the Wood complaint, the Tuttle complaint alleges violations of the California Corporations Code relating to the issuance of securities to the plaintiffs, fraud, breach of fiduciary duty, breach of contract, and breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing relating to the handling of requests by the plaintiffs to sell their shares. The complaint seeks unspecified compensatory and punitive damages, recovery of attorney fees and costs and certain equitable relief. In motions filed with the Court, the Company took the position that the claims were without merit, and aggressively defended the action. In October 2012, the parties reached an agreement whereby the matter has been resolved to the parties’ mutual satisfaction, and the Company anticipates that the lawsuit will be dismissed within the next 60 days of the filing of this report.

Litigation

NOTE 4 - Litigation

In March 2011, four of our shareholders filed an action in Superior Court of California, in Santa Barbara County (lead plaintiff is Howell Douglas Wood (“Wood”)), against us, our Chief Executive Officer at that time (“CEO”), Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) and its outside directors. The complaint alleges violations of the California Corporations Code relating to the issuance of securities to the plaintiffs, fraud, breach of fiduciary duty, breach of contract, and breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing relating to the handling of requests by the plaintiffs to sell their shares. The complaint seeks unspecified compensatory and punitive damages, recovery of attorney fees and costs and certain equitable relief. In motions filed with the Court, the Company took the position that the claims were without merit, and aggressively defended the action. In October 2012, the parties reached an agreement whereby the matter has been resolved to the parties’ mutual satisfaction, and the Company anticipates that the lawsuit will be dismissed within the next 60 days of the filing of this report.

In November 2011, 12 additional shareholders filed an action in Superior Court of California, in Santa Barbara County (lead plaintiff is Jeffrey Tuttle), against us, our then CEO, CFO and its outside directors. This complaint was filed by the same law firms as the Wood complaint, and is similar to the Wood complaint.  As with the Wood complaint, the Tuttle complaint alleges violations of the California Corporations Code relating to the issuance of securities to the plaintiffs, fraud, breach of fiduciary duty, breach of contract, and breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing relating to the handling of requests by the plaintiffs to sell their shares. The complaint seeks unspecified compensatory and punitive damages, recovery of attorney fees and costs and certain equitable relief. In motions filed with the Court, the Company took the position that the claims were without merit, and aggressively defended the action. In October 2012, the parties reached an agreement whereby the matter has been resolved to the parties’ mutual satisfaction, and the Company anticipates that the lawsuit will be dismissed within the next 60 days of the filing of this report.

In April 2012, Ned Sands filed a lawsuit against the Company for alleged discrimination based on religion and age in an employee termination, as well as fraud in inducing him to join the company.  The plaintiff has filed his second amended complaint, which adds as additional defendants a current and former officer of the Company. The Company took the position that the claims were without merit, and aggressively defended the action. In October 2012, the parties reached an agreement whereby the matter has been resolved to the parties’ mutual satisfaction, and the Company anticipates that the lawsuit will be dismissed within the next 60 days of the filing of this report.

3. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

NOTE 3 - Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).  The unaudited balance sheet at September 30, 2012 consolidates the accounts of PEI.  All significant intercompany balances were eliminated in consolidation.  

Use of Estimates

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Although these estimates are based on our knowledge of current events and actions we may undertake in the future, actual results may differ from such estimates and assumptions.

Event Revenues

Event revenue consists of ticket sales, participant entry fees, corporate sponsorships, advertising, television broadcast fees, athlete management, concession and merchandise sales, charity receipts, commissions and hospitality functions. The Company recognizes admissions and other event-related revenues when the events are held in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 104. Revenues received in advance and related direct expenses pertaining to specific events are deferred until the events are held.

Stratus White

Stratus White (formerly Stratus Rewards), the Company’s affiliate redemption credit card rewards program, is expected to generate revenues from transaction fees generated by member purchases using the card, initiation fees and annual membership fees. Revenue is recognized when transaction fees are received and membership fees are amortized and recognized ratably over the twelve-month membership period from the time of receipt.

Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable arise principally from royalties from television networks for pay-per-view presentations.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Our financial instruments include cash and equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, notes payable and accrued liabilities. The carrying amounts of financial instruments approximate fair value (“FV”) due to their short maturities.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. We record depreciation using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:

Equipment	3 – 5 years
Furniture and fixtures	5 years
Software	3 years
Leasehold improvements	Lesser of lease term or life of improvements

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist of goodwill from certain events and the Stratus White Visa Card (“Stratus White”) we acquired. Goodwill is the excess of the cost of an acquired entity over the net amounts assigned to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. We apply FASB ASC Topic 350 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, which requires allocating goodwill to each reporting unit and testing for impairment using a two-step approach.

The Company purchased several events that are recorded on the Company’s balance sheet as intangible assets with a value at the consideration paid for such assets, which generally include licensing rights, naming rights, merchandising rights and the right to hold such event in particular geographic locations.  There was no goodwill assigned to any of these events and the value of the consideration paid for each event is the value for each related intangible asset.   Each event has separate accounts for tracking revenues and expenses and a separate account to track the asset valuation.

A portion of the consideration used to purchase the Stratus White program was allocated to specific assets, as disclosed in the footnotes to the financial statements, with the difference between the specific assets and the total consideration paid for the program being allocated to goodwill.

The Company reviews the value of intangible assets and related goodwill as part of its annual reporting process, which generally occurs in February or March of each calendar year.  Between valuations, the Company conducts additional tests if circumstances warrant such testing.  For example, the Company determined that as of September 30, 2012, the value of the Beverly Hills Concours, Maui Music Festival and Freedom Bowl were impaired when the Company elected not to continue these events and $197,500 of impairment charges were taken to reduce the value of these three events to zero.

To review the value of intangible assets and related goodwill, the Company compares discounted cash flow forecasts with the amounts of the assets on the balance sheet.

The events are forecasted based on historical results for those events, adjusted over time for the assumed synergies expected from discounts from purchases of goods and services from a number of events rather than from each event on its own, and for synergies resulting from the expected ability to provide sponsors with benefits from sponsoring multiple events with a single point of contact.

These forecasts are discounted at a range of discount rates determined by taking the risk-free interest rate at the time of valuation, plus premiums for equity risk and small companies in general, and factors specific to the Company and its business.

If the Company determines the discount factor for cash flows should be increased, or the event will not be able to begin operations when planned, it is possible the amounts for the intangible assets currently on the balance sheet could be reduced or eliminated, which could result in a maximum charge to operations equal to the current carrying value of the intangible assets of $3,162,466.

Research and Development

Research and development costs not related to contract performance are expensed as incurred. We did not incur any research and development expenses for 2011 or the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

Capitalized Software Costs

We did not capitalize any software development costs during 2011 or the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Costs related to the development of new software products and significant enhancements to existing software products are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has been established and are amortized over three years.

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets

We account for long-lived assets in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 360 Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, which requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets is measured by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds their FV. Assets to be disposed of by sale are reflected at the lower of their carrying amount or FV less cost to sell.

Net Loss Per Share

We compute net loss per share in accordance with FASB ASC Topics 260 Earnings Per Share.  Basic per share data is computed by dividing loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted per share data is computed by dividing loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period increased to include, if dilutive, the number of additional common share equivalents that would have been outstanding if potential common shares had been issued using the treasury stock method. Diluted per share data would also include the potential common share equivalents relating to convertible securities by application of the if-converted method.

The effect of common stock equivalents (which include outstanding warrants and stock options) are not included for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 or 2011, as they are antidilutive to loss per share.

Stock-Based Compensation

We follow FASB ASC Topic 718 Share Based Payment, using the modified prospective transition method. New awards and awards modified, repurchased or cancelled after January 1, 2006 trigger compensation expense based on the FV of the stock option as determined by the Black-Scholes option pricing model. We amortize stock-based compensation for such awards on a straight-line method over the related service period of the awards taking into account the effects of the employees’ expected exercise and post-vesting employment termination behavior.

We account for equity instruments issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 718.

The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury interest rates, the terms of which are consistent with the expected life of the stock options.   Future option grants will be calculated using expected volatility based upon the average volatility of our common stock.

Advertising

We expense the cost of advertising as incurred. Such amounts have not historically been significant to our operations.

Income Taxes

The Company utilizes FASB ASC Topics 740-10 and 740-30 Accounting for Income Taxes, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that were included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The provision for income taxes represents the tax payable for the period and the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2011, FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (ASC Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income. Under the amendments in this update, an entity has the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. Under both options, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income and a total amount for comprehensive income. In a single continuous statement, the entity is required to present the components of net income and total net income, the components of other comprehensive income and a total for other comprehensive income, along with the total of comprehensive income in that statement. In the two-statement approach, an entity is required to present components of net income and total net income in the statement of net income. The statement of other comprehensive income should immediately follow the statement of net income and include the components of other comprehensive income and a total for other comprehensive income, along with a total for comprehensive income. In addition, the entity is required to present on the face of the financial statements reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statement(s) where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented. The amendments in this update should be applied retrospectively and are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company evaluated this pronouncement and determined that it is not applicable to the Company’s financial presentation at this time.

In September 2011, FASB issued ASU 2011-08 Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350), which requires that a company should first examine the facts and circumstances for each event or business to determine if it was more likely than not that an impairment had occurred. If this examination suggested it was more likely that an impairment had occurred, the company then compares discounted cash flow forecasts related to the asset with the stated value of the assets on the balance sheet. The Company adopted this accounting standard for the year ended December 31, 2011 and utilized it in the analysis for impairment of intangible assets.

On July 27, 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) - Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment.  The ASU provides entities with an option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether events or circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired.  If an entity concludes that it is more than 50% likely that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is not impaired, no further analysis is required.  However, if an entity concludes otherwise, it would be required to determine the FV of the indefinite-lived intangible asset to measure the amount of actual impairment, if any, as currently required under US GAAP. The ASU is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012.  Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this pronouncement will not have a material impact on our financial statements.

Subsequent Events [Abstract]

NOTE 17 - Subsequent Events

Subsequent to September 30, 2012, Stratus Media Group, Inc. entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of October 3, 2012 with one investor pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell to the Investor shares of the Company's Series E Convertible Preferred Stock the terms of which are set forth in the Amended and Restated Certificate of Designations of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock for a purchase price of $1,000 per share, or $1,000,000 in the aggregate. In connection with the sale of the Preferred Shares, the Company also agreed to issue to the Investor (a) warrants (“A Warrants”) to purchase up to one additional share of the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”) for each share of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares, and (b) warrants (“B Warrants,” and, together with the A Warrants, the "Warrants") to purchase up to 0.50 additional shares of Common Stock for each share of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares. The Warrants are exercisable for five years commencing on the date of first issuance and are exercisable only for cash if there is an effective registration statement covering the resale of the shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. In the absence of such a registration statement, the Warrants are exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis at the option of the holder thereof. The exercise price of the Warrants is $0.30 per share, subject to full ratchet anti-dilution protection. Pursuant to the Amended Certificate, the Preferred Shares bear a dividend of 5% per annum, payable quarterly in cash, or, if the dividend shares are registered for resale, in shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The effective conversion rate for the Preferred Shares is $0.30 per share of Common Stock, subject to full ratchet anti-dilution protection. The Preferred Shares have voting rights on an as-converted to Common Stock basis. The Company is required to redeem any unconverted Preferred Shares on the fifth anniversary of the date of first issuance of shares of Preferred Stock, and has the right to require conversion at any time if the average daily trading value of shares of Common Stock for any twenty consecutive trading days exceeds $250,000 and the weighted average price per share is at least $2.50 for each of those twenty consecutive trading days. To secure the Company’s obligation to redeem the Preferred Shares, the Company entered into a Security Agreement dated as of October 3, 2012, pursuant to which the Company has agreed to grant the holders of the Preferred Shares a security interest in all of its assets, subject to the security interest granted by the Company in May 2011 to prior investors in the Preferred Stock. The Company has agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC covering the resale of the shares (a) issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares and exercise of the Warrants, and (b) issued as dividends payable in shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Amended Certificate. Upon the occurrence of certain events set forth in the Purchase Agreement, including the failure to timely file the registration statement or have the registration statement timely declared effective, the Company will pay to the Investor an amount of cash equal to 1% of the aggregate purchase price of the Preferred Shares, Warrants and shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Preferred Shares, as the case may be, held by the Investor as of the date of such event, for each 30-day period during such default; provided, however, that the payments will not exceed 10% of the aggregate purchase price.

After September 30, 2012, $500,000 was advanced to ProElite pursuant to a convertible promissory note that bears interest at 7% and is due in October 2013. If ProElite or the Company enter into a financing of greater than $2,000,000 prior to this due date, this note will automatically convert to common stock at 50% of the stock price used in such financing. The note is secured by the assets of ProElite.

12. Shareholders' Deficit

9 Months Ended

Sep. 30, 2012

Shareholders Deficit

NOTE 12 - Shareholders' Deficit

Series C 10% Preferred Stock

As of December 31, 2011, all Series C Preferred Stock had been converted into common stock.

Series D 10% Preferred Stock

The Company had 18,999 shares of its Series D 10% Preferred Stock (“Series D”) outstanding as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.  Each share of Series D sold for $30, can be converted at any time into 60 shares of common stock and has voting rights of 60 shares of common stock.  In connection with the issuance of Series D, the Company issued warrants to purchase 179,970 shares of common stock.  The warrants have a life of five years to purchase a share of common stock for $1.00 and expire between November 2015 and April 2016.  The Series D has liquidation preference over common stock at a liquidation value of $30 and pays a cumulative dividend of 10% per year, payable on July 31 and December 31 of each year that the Series D is outstanding.  Interest payments may be made in cash or in common stock at the discretion of the Company.  The Series D automatically convert into 60 shares of common stock when the closing price for a share of common stock is $5.00 or above and the average daily trading volume for the 10 previous trading days is above 200,000 shares.  Given the losses recorded by the Company, the stock equivalents related to the Series D are not included in the calculation of earnings per share since the effect of such inclusion would be antidilutive.

Since the Series D contains an embedded conversion feature, the Company performed an analysis of the Series C under ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging.”  This analysis determined that the embedded conversion feature was not required to be bifurcated and accounted separately from the Series D because the economic risks and characteristics of the embedded conversion feature were clearly and closely related to the economic risks and characteristics of the host contract Series D, namely the risks of the common stock.  The value of the BCF was $26,945 which was charged to equity at the time of issuance and was not included in the calculation of earnings per share.  The BCF was calculated as the difference of the FV of the conversion price and the intrinsic value of the preferred shares.

The Series D contains a share adjustment provision that provides for additional shares to be issued if the thirty-day volume weighted average price of the Company’s common stock (“VWAP”) is between $0.50 and $1.00 180 days after the purchase of Series D.  If the VWAP is above $1.00, no action is taken.  If the VWAP is between $0.50 to $1.00, additional shares are issued to the holder such that the total of the number of common shares issuable upon conversion, which is the number of Series D shares times 60 (“Conversion Shares”), plus the additional shares together equals the VWAP price equals the Conversion Shares times $1.00.  If the VWAP is below $0.50 the number of additional shares are calculated as if the price were $0.50, not the actual VWAP.  Once this 180-day period passes and the Company has issued the appropriate shares, if any, then Price Protection provisions of this Agreement will expire and the Company will be completely released from any future claims by the Purchaser related to this share adjustment provision.  The price protection provisions have expired.

The Company determined that derivative accounting for the embedded conversion and the share adjustment features was not required pursuant to ASC 815-10-15-74 because these features are indexed to the Company’s own stock under ASC 815-40-15 (EITF Issue 07-5); the features can be classified in shareholders’ equity under ASC 815-40 (EITF Issue 00-19, paragraphs 1-11)  and that Series D is classified as a conventional convertible so the features can be classified in stockholders’ equity under ASC 815-40 (Issue 00-19, paragraphs 12-32).  The determination was made by the Company that the Series D is a conventional convertible because the freestanding warrant is indexed to the company’s own stock under ASC 815-40-15 (EITF Issue 07-5); the freestanding warrant is classified in shareholders’ equity under ASC 815-40 (Issue 00-19, paragraphs 1-32); and the financial instrument does not include embedded puts and/or calls or other features that require bifurcation from the host contract under ASC 815.

As of September 30, 2012 there were 18,999 shares of Series D Preferred Stock outstanding.   

Series E 5% Preferred Stock

On May 24, 2011, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with eight investors (collectively, the “Investors”) pursuant to which the Company sold the Investors 8,700 shares of a new series of convertible preferred stock designated as Series E Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series E”), the terms of which are set forth in the Certificate of Designations of Series E Preferred Stock (the “Certificate”), for $1,000 per share, or $8,700,000 in the aggregate. As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, there were 8,450 and 8,500 shares of Series E outstanding.

In connection with the sale of the Preferred Shares, the Company also agreed to issue to the Investors (a) warrants (“A Warrants”) to purchase up to one additional share of Common Stock for each share of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares, and (b) warrants (“B Warrants”) to purchase up to 0.50 additional shares of Common Stock for each share of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares. The Warrants are exercisable for five years commencing on the date of first issuance and are exercisable only for cash if there is an effective registration statement covering the resale of the shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. In the absence of such a registration statement, the Warrants are exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis at the option of the holder thereof. The exercise price of the A Warrant is $0.30 per share and the B Warrant has an exercise price of $0.30 per share, subject in each case to full ratchet anti-dilution protection. The exercise price of the A Warrant was originally $0.65 and the exercise price of the B Warrant was originally $1.00 but were adjusted pursuant to the full ratchet anti-dilution protection when $249,999 of notes were issued on April 4, 2012 that contained a $0.30 conversion feature.

Pursuant to the Certificate, the Preferred Shares bear a dividend of 5%, payable quarterly in cash, or, if the dividend shares are registered for resale, in shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The effective conversion rate for the Preferred Shares was originally is $0.40 per share of Common Stock, but was adjusted to $0.30 pursuant to the full ratchet anti-dilution protection mentioned above. The Preferred Shares have voting rights on an as-converted to Common Stock basis, with the Investors (subject to certain exceptions) having the right to elect two members to the Company’s Board of Directors (“BOD”) for so long as at least 50% of the total number of Preferred Shares purchased pursuant to the Purchase Agreement are outstanding, and the right to elect one member to the Company’s BOD for so long as least 25% but less than 50% of the total number of Preferred Shares issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement are outstanding. The Company is required to redeem any unconverted Preferred Shares on the fifth anniversary of the date of first issuance of the Preferred Shares, and has the right to require conversion at any time if the average daily trading value for any 20 consecutive trading days exceeds $250,000 and the weighted average price per share is at least $2.50 for each of those 20 consecutive trading days.

To secure the Company’s obligation to redeem the Preferred Shares, the Company entered into a Security Agreement dated May 24, 2011, pursuant to which the Company agreed to grant the holders of the Preferred Shares a first priority security interest in all of its assets.

The Company filed a registration statement with the SEC covering the resale of the shares (a) issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares or exercise of the Warrants, (b) issued as dividends payable in shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Certificate, and (c) issuable upon exercise of the Placement Agent Warrants. This registration statement was declared effective on February 13, 2012. Upon the occurrence of certain events set forth in the Purchase Agreement, including the failure to timely file the registration statement or have the registration statement timely declared effective, the Company will pay to the Investors cash of 1% of the aggregate purchase price of the Series E Preferred Stock and Warrants for each 30-day period during such default; provided, however, that the payments will not exceed 10% of the aggregate purchase price.

As of September 30, 2012 there were 8,450 shares of Series D Preferred Stock outstanding.   

Common Stock

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, there were no sales of the Company’s common stock. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company raised $3,609,359 from the issuance of 7,957,141 shares of common stock.

Stock Options

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company cancelled 4,660,994 options for employees whose employment had been terminated and granted 2,300,000 options to Jerold Rubinstein, the Company’s new Chairman of the Board and CEO on June 28, 2012, pursuant to an employment contract, 450,000 options to a director and 300,000 options to an officer. These options have a strike price of $0.35 - $0.38, which were the closing prices of the Company’s common stock on the day of grant and a five-year life. Mr. Rubinstein’s options vest monthly over a twelve-month period unless the employment contract is terminated for any reason, at which time the options vest in full. The director’s options vest ratably over a 36-month period, and the officer’s options vest one third at grant, one third after the first year and one third after the second year. The Black Scholes value of these options was $706,250 which is being amortized over the respective vesting periods.  The following assumptions were used for the Black Scholes calculation to determine this expense:

Estimated fair value of underlying common stock	$0.35 - $0.38
Remaining life	5.0
Risk-free interest rate	0.69% - 0.80%
Expected volatility	80% - 89%

On May 1, 2009, the Company entered into a lease for approximately 1,800 square feet of office space in Santa Barbara, California for use as its executive offices.  This lease was amended on July 21, 2009 and expires on December 31, 2013 with a three-year renewal term available at an initial rent plus common area charges of $5,767 per month. The Company has vacated this space as of August 31, 2012 and accrued a year of rent payments as of June 30, 2012 to provide for the Company’s estimated liability before a new tenant takes over the lease liability. There was no cash impact from this accrual of rent payments.

On August 1, 2011, we entered into a lease for approximately 7,000 square feet of office space in Los Angeles, California.  The lease continues through November 30, 2014.  Initially, the lease had a fixed monthly rent of $19,326, subject to annual increases of 3%.  The Company was not required to pay a fixed monthly rent for months 2 through 5.  Prior to this, the Company was leasing the same office space on a month-to-month basis. The Company vacated this property in the quarter ended June 30, 2012 and accrued a year of rent payments as of June 30, 2012 to provide for the Company’s estimated liability before a new tenant takes over the lease liability. There was no cash impact from this accrual of rent payments.

Employment and Consulting Contracts

Effective June 28, 2012, an existing director of the Company and Chairman of the Company’s Audit Committee, was elected by the Company’s board of directors as Chairman of the Board, CEO and a director of the Company’s subsidiaries. The Board of Directors of PEI elected him as Chairman of the Board and CEO. Under the terms of an employment agreement dated June 28, 2012, this CEO will receive an annual salary of $250,000 per year and will continue to serve on the Company’s board of directors and as Chairman of the Company’s Audit Committee and shall continue to receive his compensation for such services.

This executive has been granted options to purchase 2,300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.35 per share, which was the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the day of option grant. These options vest monthly over a twelve-month period. In the event the Company does not renew the second six month period, the executive resigns or the Company terminates the executive’s employment without cause, all options will immediately vest and the executive will receive all unpaid salary for the full twelve month period.

On June 28, 2012, Paul Feller, the Company’s former Chairman of the Board and CEO, resigned from all positions with the Company and its subsidiaries, including PEI.

Receivable From Former Officer And Director

NOTE 6 - Receivable from Former Officer and Director

Pursuant to an investigation conducted in March 2012 directed by the Company’s Board of Directors, it was determined that Paul Feller, the Company’s former Chairman and CEO, received $640,000 in December 2010 in connection with a sale of the Company’s common stock he arranged with an outside investor. This sale was fulfilled with issuance of 2,540,000 shares of common stock issued directly by the Company. Accordingly, the Company recorded a gross receivable of $640,000 from Mr. Feller in connection with this transaction. Mr. Feller resigned from the Company on June 28, 2012.

As of December 31, 2011, this receivable of $640,000 was presented net of $398,790 of accrued salary, $115,000 of commissions that Mr. Feller represented in writing were paid in this transaction, $30,540 of business expenses submitted by Mr. Feller that met Company and IRS guidelines and $133,770 of business expenses that Mr. Feller represented in writing he would provide, for a net receivable of zero.

As of September 30, 2012, this receivable of $640,000 was increased by $4,622 of personal expenses for Mr. Feller paid with Company funds, including $4,355 of registration fees paid by the Company for the vintage automobile that remains in Mr. Feller’s possession. This receivable of $682,722 is presented net of $30,540 of approved business expenses and $113,667 in deferred salary:

Additional evidence obtained in October 2012 confirmed that the $115,000 in commissions for the stock sales were not valid commissions and this amount was removed as an offset to the gross receivable for September 30, 2012. Pursuant to a Separation and Release Agreement dated June 28, 2012 and signed by Mr. Feller on August 9, 2012 (“Separation Agreement”), Mr. Feller agreed to waive his rights to any deferred salary prior to October 1, 2011. Accordingly, the amount of deferred salary eligible for offset to the gross receivable was reduced from $398,790 at December 31, 2011 to $113,667 at September 30, 2012, which consists of $125,000 in deferred salary between October 1, 2011 and June 28, 2012, less $11,333 paid in salary during that period. In addition, Mr. Feller did not submit expense reports to support the $133,770 of expenses in the time provided for in the Separation Agreement, so that amount was removed as an offset to his receivable as of September 30, 2012.

3. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

9 Months Ended

Sep. 30, 2012

Basis Of Presentation And Significant Accounting Policies Policies

Basis of Presentation

The financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).  The unaudited balance sheet at September 30, 2012 consolidates the accounts of PEI.  All significant intercompany balances were eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Although these estimates are based on our knowledge of current events and actions we may undertake in the future, actual results may differ from such estimates and assumptions.

Event Revenues

Event revenue consists of ticket sales, participant entry fees, corporate sponsorships, advertising, television broadcast fees, athlete management, concession and merchandise sales, charity receipts, commissions and hospitality functions. The Company recognizes admissions and other event-related revenues when the events are held in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 104. Revenues received in advance and related direct expenses pertaining to specific events are deferred until the events are held.

Stratus White

Stratus White (formerly Stratus Rewards), the Company’s affiliate redemption credit card rewards program, is expected to generate revenues from transaction fees generated by member purchases using the card, initiation fees and annual membership fees. Revenue is recognized when transaction fees are received and membership fees are amortized and recognized ratably over the twelve-month membership period from the time of receipt.

Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable arise principally from royalties from television networks for pay-per-view presentations.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Our financial instruments include cash and equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, notes payable and accrued liabilities. The carrying amounts of financial instruments approximate fair value (“FV”) due to their short maturities.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist of goodwill from certain events and the Stratus White Visa Card (“Stratus White”) we acquired. Goodwill is the excess of the cost of an acquired entity over the net amounts assigned to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. We apply FASB ASC Topic 350 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, which requires allocating goodwill to each reporting unit and testing for impairment using a two-step approach.

The Company purchased several events that are recorded on the Company’s balance sheet as intangible assets with a value at the consideration paid for such assets, which generally include licensing rights, naming rights, merchandising rights and the right to hold such event in particular geographic locations.  There was no goodwill assigned to any of these events and the value of the consideration paid for each event is the value for each related intangible asset.   Each event has separate accounts for tracking revenues and expenses and a separate account to track the asset valuation.

A portion of the consideration used to purchase the Stratus White program was allocated to specific assets, as disclosed in the footnotes to the financial statements, with the difference between the specific assets and the total consideration paid for the program being allocated to goodwill.

The Company reviews the value of intangible assets and related goodwill as part of its annual reporting process, which generally occurs in February or March of each calendar year.  Between valuations, the Company conducts additional tests if circumstances warrant such testing.  For example, the Company determined that as of September 30, 2012, the value of the Beverly Hills Concours, Maui Music Festival and Freedom Bowl were impaired when the Company elected not to continue these events and $197,500 of impairment charges were taken to reduce the value of these three events to zero.

To review the value of intangible assets and related goodwill, the Company compares discounted cash flow forecasts with the amounts of the assets on the balance sheet.

The events are forecasted based on historical results for those events, adjusted over time for the assumed synergies expected from discounts from purchases of goods and services from a number of events rather than from each event on its own, and for synergies resulting from the expected ability to provide sponsors with benefits from sponsoring multiple events with a single point of contact.

These forecasts are discounted at a range of discount rates determined by taking the risk-free interest rate at the time of valuation, plus premiums for equity risk and small companies in general, and factors specific to the Company and its business.

If the Company determines the discount factor for cash flows should be increased, or the event will not be able to begin operations when planned, it is possible the amounts for the intangible assets currently on the balance sheet could be reduced or eliminated, which could result in a maximum charge to operations equal to the current carrying value of the intangible assets of $3,162,466.

Research and Development

Research and development costs not related to contract performance are expensed as incurred. We did not incur any research and development expenses for 2011 or the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

Capitalized Software Costs

We did not capitalize any software development costs during 2011 or the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Costs related to the development of new software products and significant enhancements to existing software products are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has been established and are amortized over three years.

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets

We account for long-lived assets in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 360 Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, which requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets is measured by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds their FV. Assets to be disposed of by sale are reflected at the lower of their carrying amount or FV less cost to sell.

Net Loss Per Share

We compute net loss per share in accordance with FASB ASC Topics 260 Earnings Per Share.  Basic per share data is computed by dividing loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted per share data is computed by dividing loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period increased to include, if dilutive, the number of additional common share equivalents that would have been outstanding if potential common shares had been issued using the treasury stock method. Diluted per share data would also include the potential common share equivalents relating to convertible securities by application of the if-converted method.

The effect of common stock equivalents (which include outstanding warrants and stock options) are not included for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 or 2011, as they are antidilutive to loss per share.

Stock-Based Compensation

We follow FASB ASC Topic 718 Share Based Payment, using the modified prospective transition method. New awards and awards modified, repurchased or cancelled after January 1, 2006 trigger compensation expense based on the FV of the stock option as determined by the Black-Scholes option pricing model. We amortize stock-based compensation for such awards on a straight-line method over the related service period of the awards taking into account the effects of the employees’ expected exercise and post-vesting employment termination behavior.

We account for equity instruments issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 718.

The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury interest rates, the terms of which are consistent with the expected life of the stock options.   Future option grants will be calculated using expected volatility based upon the average volatility of our common stock.

Advertising

We expense the cost of advertising as incurred. Such amounts have not historically been significant to our operations.

Income Taxes

The Company utilizes FASB ASC Topics 740-10 and 740-30 Accounting for Income Taxes, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that were included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The provision for income taxes represents the tax payable for the period and the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2011, FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (ASC Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income. Under the amendments in this update, an entity has the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. Under both options, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income and a total amount for comprehensive income. In a single continuous statement, the entity is required to present the components of net income and total net income, the components of other comprehensive income and a total for other comprehensive income, along with the total of comprehensive income in that statement. In the two-statement approach, an entity is required to present components of net income and total net income in the statement of net income. The statement of other comprehensive income should immediately follow the statement of net income and include the components of other comprehensive income and a total for other comprehensive income, along with a total for comprehensive income. In addition, the entity is required to present on the face of the financial statements reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statement(s) where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented. The amendments in this update should be applied retrospectively and are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company evaluated this pronouncement and determined that it is not applicable to the Company’s financial presentation at this time.

In September 2011, FASB issued ASU 2011-08 Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350), which requires that a company should first examine the facts and circumstances for each event or business to determine if it was more likely than not that an impairment had occurred. If this examination suggested it was more likely that an impairment had occurred, the company then compares discounted cash flow forecasts related to the asset with the stated value of the assets on the balance sheet. The Company adopted this accounting standard for the year ended December 31, 2011 and utilized it in the analysis for impairment of intangible assets.

On July 27, 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) - Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment.  The ASU provides entities with an option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether events or circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired.  If an entity concludes that it is more than 50% likely that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is not impaired, no further analysis is required.  However, if an entity concludes otherwise, it would be required to determine the FV of the indefinite-lived intangible asset to measure the amount of actual impairment, if any, as currently required under US GAAP. The ASU is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012.  Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this pronouncement will not have a material impact on our financial statements.

Segment Information

NOTE 14 - Segment Information

Each event and the Stratus White program is considered an operating segment pursuant to ASC 280 since each is budgeted separately and results of each event and the Stratus White program are tracked separately to provide the chief operating decision maker information to assess and manage each event and the Stratus White program.

The characteristics of the Stratus White program are different than the events, so that operating segment is considered a reporting segment.  The events share similar economic characteristics and are aggregated into a reporting segment pursuant to paragraph 17 of ASC 280.  All of the events provide entertainment and the logistics and production processes and methods for each event are similar:  sponsorship sales, ticket and concession sales, security, stages, public address systems and the like.  While the demographic characteristics of the audience can vary by event, all events cater to consumer entertainment.

A summary of results by segment is as follows:

Total Goodwill		3,008,966		3,008,966
Total Goodwill and Intangible Assets	$	3,161,966	$	3,359,466

In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 350 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, the Company’s intangible assets are considered to have indefinite lives and are therefore no longer amortized, but rather are subject to annual impairment tests. The purchased licensed technology and membership list for Stratus Rewards were amortized over their estimated useful life of 10 years but impairment charges were taken as of December 31, 2011 to reduce the carrying value of these items to zero. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, amortization of these items was $0 and $34,057, respectively.  For the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, amortization was $0 and $11,353, respectively.

The Company’s annual impairment testing date is December 31, but the Company monitors the facts and circumstances for all intangible properties and will record impairment if warranted by adverse changes in facts and circumstances.   As of September 30, 2012, the Company elected to not pursue the Beverly Hills Concours, Maui Music Festival and Freedom Bowl events and took $197,500 of impairment charges to bring the value of these events to zero.

Related Party Transactions [Abstract]

NOTE 16 - Related Party Transactions

Pursuant to an investigation conducted in March 2012 directed by the Company’s Board of Directors, it was determined that Paul Feller, the Company’s former Chairman and CEO, received $640,000 in December 2010 in connection with a sale of the Company’s common stock he arranged with an outside investor. This sale was fulfilled with issuance of 2,540,000 shares of common stock issued directly by the Company. Accordingly, the Company recorded a gross receivable of $640,000 from Mr. Feller in connection with this transaction. Mr. Feller resigned from the Company on June 28, 2012.

As of December 31, 2011, this gross receivable of $640,000 was presented net of $398,790 of accrued salary, $115,000 of commissions that Mr. Feller represented in writing were paid in this transaction, $30,540 of business expenses submitted by Mr. Feller that met Company and IRS guidelines and $133,770 of business expenses that Mr. Feller represented in writing he would provide, for a net receivable of zero. As of September 30, 2012, this gross receivable of $640,000 was increased by $4,622 of personal expenses for Mr. Feller paid with Company funds, including $4,355 of registration fees paid by the Company for the vintage automobile that remains in Mr. Feller’s possession. This gross receivable of $682,722 is presented net of $30,540 of approved business expenses and $113,667 in deferred salary. Additional evidence obtained in October 2012 confirmed that the $115,000 in commissions for the stock sales were not valid commissions and this amount was removed as an offset to the gross receivable for September 30, 2012. Pursuant to a Separation and Release Agreement dated June 28, 2012 and signed by Mr. Feller on August 9, 2012 (“Separation Agreement”), Mr. Feller agreed to waive his rights to any deferred salary prior to October 1, 2011. Accordingly, the amount of deferred salary eligible for offset to the gross receivable was reduced from $398,790 at December 31, 2011 to $113,667 at September 30, 2012, which consists of $125,000 in deferred salary between October 1, 2011 and June 28, 2012, less $11,333 paid in salary during that period. In addition, Mr. Feller did not submit expense reports to support the $133,770 of expenses in the time provided for in the Separation Agreement, so that amount was removed as an offset to his receivable for September 30, 2012.

Effective July 1, 2011, each board member is entitled to an annual payment of $50,000, with the chairman of the audit committee receiving an additional $100,000 per annum and the chairman of the compensation committee receiving an additional $50,000 per annum. Mr. Rubinstein received a grant of 450,000 shares of restricted common stock that vest over a 36 month period and an additional grant of 450,000 shares of restricted common stock as chairman of the audit committee that vest over a 36 month period. Mr. Golenberg received a grant of 450,000 shares of restricted common stock as chairman of the compensation committee that vests over a 36 month period that started in July 2011. On December 28, 2010, the Board of Directors elected to cancel a total of 1,550,000 options granted to Messrs. Cross and Dunleavy and Golenberg in 2009 for board service and to Mr. Golenberg in 2009 and 2010 as chairman of the audit committee, and replace those options with grants of 540,833 shares of restricted stock, which was equal to 50% of the number of vested options as of July 1, 2011. These grants vest one-third on January 1, 2012, one-third on January 1, 2013 and one-third on January 1, 2014. Pursuant to these grants, Mr. Cross received a grant of 162,500 shares of restricted stock, of which 54,167 shares vested on January 1, 2012; Mr. Dunleavy received a grant of 130,000 shares of restricted stock, of which 43,333 shares vested on January 1, 2012; and Mr. Golenberg received a grant of 248,333 shares of restricted stock, of which 82,778 shares vested on January 1, 2012.

5. Acquisition of Stratus White

Acquisition Of Stratus White

NOTE 5 - Acquisition of Stratus White

In accordance with the Asset Purchase Agreement dated August 15, 2005, between the Company and Stratus White LLC (“Stratus Purchase Agreement”), the Company acquired the business of Stratus White, a credit card rewards program.

The consideration for this acquisition was $3,000,000, with Stratus entering into a note payable of $1,000,000 and issuing 666,667 common shares valued at $2,000,000. The note is payable in eight quarterly equal payments over a 24 month period, with the first payment due upon completion of the first post-public merger funding of a minimum of $3,000,000.

The Stratus Purchase Agreement included the transfer to the Company of tangible personal property such as computers and all intellectual property, goodwill associated therewith, licenses and sublicenses.  Stratus White had at least $1.4 million of computer hardware and at least $0.2 million of computer software, all of which should have been transferred to the Company pursuant to the Stratus Purchase Agreement.  These computer and software assets were not included in the accounting for the acquisition of Stratus White by PSEI and the value of the computer hardware and software not received was allocated to goodwill.  The owner of Stratus White received notice on May 15, 2006 that if he did not deliver this hardware and software within 30 days, that the amount of consideration he was entitled to would be reduced by at least the $1,000,000 amount of the note, if not an additional $1,000,000 in common stock issued as consideration.  The owner responded on June 2, 2006 that his former law firm owned the computer hardware and software and he did not have the authority to release these items to the Company.

Given this situation and the expiration for the statute of limitations, the Company wrote off this liability as of December 31, 2011.

The results of operations of the business acquired were included in the Company’s Statements of Operations from the date of acquisition. Depreciation and amortization related to the acquisition were calculated based on the estimated fair values and estimated useful lives for property and equipment and an independent valuation for certain identifiable intangible assets acquired.

Effective May 14, 2010, the Company entered into a Co-branded Card Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Cornèr Banca SA (the “Bank”), located in Lugano, Switzerland.  Under the Agreement, the parties agreed to jointly launch a co-branded consumer card payment solution targeted at high net worth individuals and a co-branded commercial payment solution targeted at small and mid-sized businesses.  The cards, to be issued by the Bank, will include a loyalty rewards program.  The cards are targeted to residents of Europe.  The initial term of the Agreement is five years.  The Company, among other things, will be responsible for marketing and administration of, and expenses relating to, the rewards program.  The Bank will be responsible for issuing the cards.  The Company will receive a share of purchase transactions generated by a card holder and membership and initiation fees. This program has been on hold pending receipt of sufficient capital by the Company to resume development of the Stratus White program or a decision by Company management to not develop this business.

Effective October 21, 2009, the Company entered into a Strategic Investment Agreement with PEI pursuant to which PEI sold to the Company shares of PEI’s Series A Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Shares”). The transaction closed on June 14, 2011. The Preferred Shares are convertible into the Common Stock of PEI. The amount of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion on a cumulative basis is equal to 95% of the sum of (a) the issued and outstanding shares of PEI as of the closing plus (b) any shares of PEI Common Stock issued after the closing upon exercise or conversion of any derivative securities of PEI outstanding as of the closing, subject to any adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations etc. and, in all cases, after giving effect to the shares issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares. The purchase price of the Preferred Shares was $2,000,000. At the close, all of the previous directors of PEI resigned and the board of directors of PEI consists of two designees of the Company and one designee of PEI. Paul Feller, the Company’s CEO at that time, became PEI’s CEO. Certain present and former key PEI executives continued with PEI.
