DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS	NOTE 1 – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION GrowLife, Inc. (formerly Phototron Holdings, Inc.) (“GrowLife”, the “Company”, “we,” “us,” “our”, “our company”) is a holding company with multiple operating businesses that manufacture and supply branded equipment and expendables in the USA for urban gardening, inclusive of equipment and expendables for growing of medical marijuana. Wholly owned GrowLife companies include SGT, Growlife Hydroponics, Urban Garden, 58Hydro.com, Phototron, Rocky Mountain Hydroponics, Evergreen Garden Centers and Greners. In addition to promotion and sales of GrowLife owned brands, GrowLife companies distribute and sell over 3,000 products through on-line distribution channels, Greners.com and 58Hydro.com, our on-line superstores, and through retail sales in Company owned stores in California, Colorado, Maine, Massachusetts and New Hampshire. GrowLife’s website, www.cannabis.org is expected to provide GrowLife with another widely recognized and authoritative channel for branded product promotion and sales. GrowLife and its business units are organized and directed to operate strictly in accordance with all applicable state and federal laws. GrowLife is actively engaged in improving and expanding its line of branded products through organic development, business alliances and acquisition. Consistent with this strategy, GrowLife has recently announced its commitment to collaboration in sales and marketing of a modularized line of turn-key grow containers under the brand “PharmPod” and is actively engaged in developing other business alliances and evaluating branded products for acquisition. GrowLife is also actively engaged in building upon its direct to customers sales business by expansion and promotion of Greners.com, StealthGrow.com, Phototron.com and other unique online channels of distribution. Finally, GrowLife is actively engaged in pursuing acquisitions that will allow its GrowLife Hydroponics retail sales division business to expand regionally in the United States. On February 14, 2011, GrowLife entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (“PHI Merger Agreement”) with PHI Merger Corporation, a California corporation and our wholly-owned subsidiary (“PHI MergerCo”), and Phototron, Inc., a California corporation (“Phototron”). The closing (the “PHI Closing”) of the transactions contemplated by the PHI Merger Agreement (the “PHI Merger”) occurred on March 9, 2011. At the PHI Closing, (a) PHI MergerCo was merged with and into Phototron; (b) Phototron became our wholly-owned subsidiary; (c) all of Phototron’s shares and options outstanding prior to the PHI Merger were exchanged (or assumed, in the case of options) for comparable securities of our company; and (d) 95% of our fully-diluted shares were owned by Phototron’s former shareholders and option holders. At the PHI Closing, we issued a total of 130,621,421 shares of our common stock to Phototron’s former shareholders, in exchange for the 1,666,666 shares of Phototron’s common stock outstanding prior to the PHI Merger. Upon the effectiveness of the PHI Merger, 8,662,262 shares of our common stock were maintained by our existing stockholders. In connection with the PHI Merger, we changed our name from Catalyst Lighting Group, Inc. to Phototron Holdings, Inc., on March 9, 2011. Since former holders of Phototron’s common stock and options to purchase common stock owned, after the PHI Merger, approximately 95% of our fully-diluted shares of common stock, and as a result of certain other factors, including that all members of our executive management were members of Phototron’s management, Phototron was deemed to be the acquiring company and we were deemed to be the legal acquirer for accounting purposes, and the PHI Merger was accounted for as a reverse merger and a recapitalization in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). On March 21, 2012, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with SGT Merger Corporation, a Nevada corporation and our wholly-owned subsidiary (“MergerCo”), SG Technologies Corp, a Nevada corporation (“SGT”), Sterling C. Scott (the “SGT Representative”), and W-Net Fund I, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership and current holder of our common stock (the “Investor Representative”). The closing (the “Closing”) of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Merger”) occurred on April 5, 2012. At the Closing, (a) MergerCo was merged with and into SGT; (b) SGT became our wholly-owned subsidiary; and (c) all SGT shares of common stock were exchanged for shares of our common stock and shares of a new series of our preferred stock, which was designated Series A Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), and had the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions set forth in the Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series A Preferred Stock, which was filed with the Delaware Secretary of State on April 5, 2012. At the Closing, we issued to SGT’s former stockholders, in exchange for the 200 shares of SGT’s common stock outstanding immediately prior to the Merger, 157,000,000 shares of our common stock and 3,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock. Details are disclosed on Note 3. Since after the Merger former holders of SGT’s common stock owned in excess of 50% of our fully-diluted shares of common stock, and as a result of certain other factors, including that all members of our executive management are members of SGT’s management, SGT is deemed to be the acquiring company and we are deemed to be the legal acquirer for accounting purposes, and the Merger was accounted for as a reverse merger and a recapitalization in accordance with GAAP. The accompanying consolidated financial statements of GrowLife, Inc. (formerly Phototron Holdings, Inc.) and subsidiaries reflect the historical activity of SGT, and the historical stockholders’ equity of SGT has been retroactively restated for the equivalent number of shares received in the exchange after giving effect to the differences in par value offset to additional paid-in capital. In connection with the Merger Agreement, we are deemed to have issued an additional 152,343,383 shares of common stock to our stockholders existing prior to the Merger. Net liabilities of $542,716 have been capitalized as part of the purchase price. On July 23, 2012, we completed the purchase of substantially all of the assets (the “Assets”) of Donna Klauenburch and Tao Klauenburch, general partners doing business as Greners.com (collectively, “Greners”), related to the online retail business currently operated by Greners, pursuant to the terms of an Asset Purchase Agreement entered into by the parties on July 23, 2012 (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”). The Assets included equipment, finished goods, materials and supplies, contract rights, trademarks, domain names and implemented and operational components of software. In addition, the Company assumed certain of Greners’ liabilities which included Greners’ liabilities and obligations under its contracts and all express and implied warranties related to any materials supplied by Greners prior to the closing date. Details are disclosed on Note 4. In consideration for the Assets, the Company agreed to pay to Greners an aggregate of $450,000. Of the purchase price, $250,000 was paid in cash on the closing date and the remaining portion of the purchase price was paid in the form of a Secured Promissory Note (the “Note”) issued by the Company to Greners in the original principal amount of $200,000. On August 6, 2012, Phototron Holdings, Inc. merged GrowLife, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Phototron Holdings, Inc., with and into Phototron Holdings, Inc. pursuant to the Certificate of Ownership and Merger filed with the Delaware Secretary of State on July 25, 2012 and effective August 6, 2012. As a result of the merger, on August 6, 2012, Phototron Holdings, Inc.’s corporate named changed from Phototron Holdings, Inc. to GrowLife, Inc. On October 22, 2012, our wholly owned subsidiary GrowLife Hydroponics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“GH”), completed the purchase of all of the shares (the “UG Shares”) of Soja, Inc. dba Urban Garden Supplies (the “Urban Garden”) from Richard Melograno, Michael Cook, and Scott Glass (collectively, the “UG Sellers”). The effective date of the Stock Purchase Agreement was October 24, 2012 (“UG Agreement”). The UG Agreement included all of the assets and liabilities of Urban Garden which includes the inventory of the store located at 22516 Ventura Blvd., Woodland Hills, CA 91364 and various other assets. GH also assumed the liabilities of Urban Garden which were valued at $70,370. GrowLife’s CEO Sterling Scott personally guaranteed this liability. In consideration for the UG Shares, GrowLife agreed to pay to the UG Sellers an aggregate of 3,906,252 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $156,250. Details are disclosed on Note 5. On June 7, 2013, GH completed the purchase of all the ownership and membership interests (the “Subject Interest”) of Rocky Mountain Hydroponics, LLC., a Colorado limited liability company (“RMC”), Evergreen Garden Center, LLC, a Maine limited liability company (“EGC”) and Evergreen Garden Center, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“EGC II”)(collectively the “RMH Companies”). The effective date of the Stock Purchase Agreement was June 7, 2013 (“RMH/EGC Agreement”). The RMH/EGC Agreement included all of the assets and liabilities of the RMH Companies, and in specific, their four (4) retail hydroponics stores, which are located in Vail and Boulder, Colorado, Peabody, Massachusetts, and Portland, Maine. Per the terms of the RMH/EGC Agreement, GrowLife paid the former owners of the RMH Companies $550,000 in cash, $800,000 in 12% Secured Convertible Notes, and $275,000 (7,857,141 shares at $0.035/share) in shares of GrowLife’s common stock.
