NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
As of September 30, 2009
(Unaudited)
 
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

Overview The Company was incorporated February 25, 1999 in the State of Florida.  Until October 19, 2009, the Company was in the business of consulting and commercial property management.  On October 19, 2009 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a Merger and Recapitalization Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Liberator, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Liberator”).  Pursuant to the Agreement, Liberator merged with and into the Company, with the Company surviving as the sole remaining entity (the “Merger”).

On the Closing Date, each issued and outstanding share of the common stock of Liberator (the “Liberator Common Shares”) were converted, into one share of the Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value, which, after giving effect to the Merger, equaled, in the aggregate, 98.4% of the total issued and outstanding common stock of the Company (the “WES Common Stock”).  Pursuant to the Agreement, each Series A Preferred Share of Liberator (the “Liberator Preferred Shares”) were to be converted into one share of the Company’s preferred stock with the provisions, rights, and designations set forth in the Agreement (the “WES Preferred Stock”).  On the Closing Date, the Company was not authorized to issue any preferred stock and therefore pursuant to the agreement, it was agreed that the Company will file an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation authorizing the issuance of the WES Preferred Stock, and at such time the WES Preferred Stock will be exchanged pursuant to the terms of the Agreement.  As of the Closing Date, Liberator owned eighty-one point seven (80.7%) percent of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock.  Upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement, the WES Common Stock owned by Liberator prior to the Agreement was cancelled.

The Agreement has been accounted for as a reverse merger, and as such the historical financial statements of Liberator are being presented herein with those of the Company.  Also, the capital structure of the Company for all periods presented herein is different from that appearing in the historical financial statements of the Company due to the recapitalization accounting.

 Liberator, Inc. (formerly known as Remark Enterprises, Inc.) was founded in Nevada on October 31, 2007.  Liberator’s executive offices are located at 2745 Bankers Industrial Drive, Atlanta, Georgia 30360.  Liberator is a Georgia-based sexual wellness retailer, providing goods and information to customers who believe that sensual pleasure and fulfillment are essential to a well-lived and healthy life. 

Liberator, Inc is the creator and exclusive manufacturer of LIBERATOR®, a luxury lovestyle brand that celebrates intimacy by inspiring romantic imagination. Established with the conviction that sensual pleasure and fulfillment are essential to a well-lived life, LIBERATOR Bedroom Adventure Gear empowers exploration, fantasy and the communication of desire, for persons of all shapes, sizes and abilities. Products include LIBERATOR Shapes and positioning systems, original lingerie, couture latex and exotic dress-up fashions, and sensual accessories for the body and home décor.

Liberator, Inc. is currently housed in a 140,000 sq. ft. vertically integrated manufacturing facility in a suburb of Atlanta, Georgia. Liberator has grown to over 100 employees, with products being sold directly to consumers and through hundreds of domestic resellers, on-line affiliates and licensees worldwide.

Going Concern – The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company incurred a net loss of $690,020 and $351,270 for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and as of September 30, 2009 the Company has an accumulated deficit of $530,717 and a working capital deficit of $536,823.
In view of these matters, realization of a major portion of the assets in the accompanying balance sheet is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company's ability to meet its financing requirements, and the success of its future operations.  Management believes that actions presently being taken to revise the Company's operating and financial requirements provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.

 
6

 

These actions include initiatives to increase gross profit margins through improved production controls and reporting. To that end, the Company recently implemented a new Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software system. We also plan to reduce discretionary expense levels to be better aligned with current revenue levels.  Furthermore, our plan of operation in the next twelve months continues a strategy for growth within our existing lines of business with an on-going focus on growing domestic sales. We estimate that the operational and strategic development plans we have identified will require approximately $2,300,000 of funding. We expect to invest approximately $500,000 for additional inventory of sexual wellness products and $1,800,000 on sales and marketing programs, primarily sexual wellness advertising in magazines and on cable television. We will also be exploring the opportunity to acquire other compatible businesses.
 
We plan to finance the required $2,300,000 with a combination of anticipated cash flow from operations over the next twelve months as well as cash on hand and cash raised through equity and debt financings.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations.  However, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing these plans.  The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation
 These consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of Liberator, Inc. and our wholly-owned domestic operating subsidiaries, OneUp Innovations, Inc. and Foam Labs, Inc.   Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

The accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements.  These consolidated condensed financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements contained in the Company’s report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 filed on February 18, 2009 and Amendment to Form 10-K filed on May 28, 2009. In addition, these consolidated condensed financial statements and notes should also be read in conjunction with the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on October 22, 2009.
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period reported.  Management reviews these estimates and assumptions periodically and reflects the effect of revisions in the period that they are determined to be necessary.  Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions in determining the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Significant estimates in these consolidated financial statements include estimates of: asset impairment; income taxes; tax valuation reserves; restructuring reserve; loss contingencies; allowances for doubtful accounts; share-based compensation; and useful lives for depreciation and amortization.  Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.

Revenue Recognition     
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104, “Revenue Recognition.” (“SAB No. 104”).  SAB No. 104 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) title has transferred; (3) the fee is fixed or determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured.  The Company uses contracts and customer purchase orders to determine the existence of an arrangement. The Company uses shipping documents and third-party proof of delivery to verify that title has transferred. The Company assesses whether the fee is fixed or determinable based upon the terms of the agreement associated with the transaction. To determine whether collection is probable, the Company assesses a number of factors, including past transaction history with the customer and the creditworthiness of the customer. If the Company determines that collection is not reasonably assured, then the recognition of revenue is deferred until collection becomes reasonably assured, which is generally upon receipt of payment.

The Company records product sales net of estimated product returns and discounts from the list prices for its products. The amounts of product returns and the discount amounts have not been material to date. The Company includes shipping and handling costs in cost of product sales.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
            The allowance for doubtful accounts reflects management's best estimate of probable credit losses inherent in the accounts receivable balance.  The Company determines the allowance based on historical experience, specifically identified nonpaying accounts and other currently available evidence.  The Company reviews its allowance for doubtful accounts monthly with a focus on significant individual past due balances over 90 days.  Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The Company does not have any off-balance sheet credit exposure related to its customers.  At September 30, 2009, accounts receivable totaled $431,303 net of $15,178 in the allowance for doubtful accounts.

Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Market is defined as sales price less cost to dispose and a normal profit margin.  Inventory costs include materials, labor, depreciation and overhead.

Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject us to significant concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, and accounts receivable.  As of September 30, 2009, substantially all of our cash and cash equivalents were managed by a number of financial institutions.  As of September 30, 2009 our cash and cash equivalents with certain of these financial institutions exceed FDIC insured limits.  Accounts receivable are typically unsecured and are derived from revenue earned from customers primarily located in the United States and Canada.

Fair Value of Financial and Derivative Instruments
The Company values its financial instruments in accordance with new accounting guidance on fair value measurements which, for certain financial assets and liabilities, requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

 
Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
 
Level 2 — Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
 
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

At September 30, 2009, our financial instruments included cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and other long-term debt.

The fair values of these financial instruments approximated their carrying values based on either their short maturity or current terms for similar instruments.

Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are expensed in the period when the advertisements are first aired or distributed to the public. Prepaid advertising (included in prepaid expenses) was $52,658 at September 30, 2009 and $57,625 at June 30, 2009. Advertising expense for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 was $178,132 and $260,780, respectively.



 
8

 

Research and Development
Research and development expenses for new products are expensed as they are incurred.  Expenses for new product development totaled $51,522 for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and $31,120 for the three months ended September 30, 2009. Research and development costs are included in general and administrative expense.

Shipping and Handling
Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 includes amounts charged to customers of $162,938 and $301,803, respectively, for shipping and handling charges.

Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over estimated service lives for financial reporting purposes.

Expenditures for major renewals and betterments which extend the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When properties are disposed of, the related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is recognized currently.

Operating Leases
The Company leases its facility under a ten year operating lease which was signed in September 2005 and expires December 31, 2015.  The lease is on an escalating schedule with the final year on the lease at $34,358 per month.  The liability for this difference in the monthly payments is accounted for as a deferred rent liability and the balance in this account at September 30, 2009 is $351,454.  The Rent expense under this lease for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 was $80,931.

Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using an asset and liability approach. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes, and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards measured by applying currently enacted tax laws. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce net deferred tax assets to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized. The amount of the valuation allowance is based on the Company’s best estimate of the recoverability of its deferred tax assets. On January 1, 2007, the Company adopted new accounting guidance for the accounting for uncertainty in income tax positions. This guidance seeks to reduce the diversity in practice associated with certain aspects of measurement and recognition in accounting for income taxes and provide guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, and accounting in interim periods and requires expanded disclosure with respect to the uncertainty in income taxes. The accounting guidance requires that the Company recognize in its financial statements the impact of a tax position if that position is more likely than not to be sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position.

Segment Information
During the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, the Company only operated in one segment; therefore, segment information has not been presented.

New Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new guidance on accounting for transfers of financial assets. The new guidance removes the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity and removes a certain exception from applying previous FASB interpretations on the consolidation of variable interest entities to qualifying special-purpose entities. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after November 15, 2009. The Company has not yet adopted the new guidance and does not expect that the new guidance will have any impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued new accounting guidance on accounting for the consolidation of variable interest entities. The guidance amends certain previously existing guidance for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity, requires an enterprise to perform an analysis to determine whether an enterprise’s variable interest or interests give it a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity, and requires ongoing reassessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. An identified primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity is an enterprise that has both the power to direct the activities of significant impact on a variable interest entity and the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits from the variable interest entity that could potentially be significant to the variable interest entity. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after November 15, 2009. The Company has not yet adopted the new guidance and does not expect that the new guidance will have any impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
 In June 2009, the FASB issued the FASB accounting standards codification and the hierarchy of generally accepted accounting principles. The primary purpose of this new accounting guidance is to improve clarity and use of existing standards by grouping authoritative literature under common topics. The new guidance does not change or alter existing GAAP. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim periods ending after September 15, 2009. The Company adopted the new guidance on July 1, 2009 and determined it did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share of Common Stock 
Basic earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.  Diluted earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the potentially dilutive effect of outstanding stock options and warrants using the “treasury stock” method and convertible securities using the “if-converted” method.
 
Reconciliations between the numerator and the denominator of the basic and diluted earnings per share computations for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008 are as follows:

Diluted loss per share
  $ 351,270       46,200,001     $ 0.01  
 
Basic and diluted earnings per share are the same in periods of a net loss, thus there is no effect of dilutive securities when a net loss is recorded.  There were approximately 5,650,849 and 4,400,849 securities excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share because their effect was anti-dilutive for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Management reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of these assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount to forecasted undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount exceeds its estimated future cash flows, then an impairment charge is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount exceeds the asset’s fair value. Management has determined no asset impairment occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2009.

NOTE 6  –  REVOLVING LINE OF CREDIT

On March 19, 2008, the Company (Liberator, Inc.) entered into a loan agreement for a revolving line of credit with a commercial finance company which provides credit to 85% of accounts receivable aged less than 90 days up to $500,000 and eligible inventory (as defined in the agreement) up to a sub-limit of $220,000, such inventory loan not to exceed 30% of the accounts receivable loan. Borrowings under the agreement bear interest at the Prime rate plus two percent (5.25 percent at June 30, 2009), payable monthly, plus a monthly service charge of 1.25% to 1.5%, depending on the underlying collateral.  At September 30, 2009 and June 30, 2009, the balance owed under the revolving line of credit was $0 and $171,433, respectively.

On November 10, 2009, the Company entered into a loan agreement for a revolving line of credit with a different commercial finance company which provides credit to 80% of domestic accounts receivable aged less than 90 days up to $250,000. Borrowings under the agreement bear interest at Prime rate plus six percent (9.25 percent as of November 10, 2009) plus a 2% annual facility fee and a .25% monthly collateral monitoring fee, as defined in the agreement.

Management believes cash flows generated from operations, along with current cash and investments as well as borrowing capacity under the line of credit should be sufficient to finance capital requirements required by operations. If new business opportunities do arise, additional outside funding may be required.

NOTE 7 – CREDIT CARD ADVANCE

On July 2, 2008 the Company received $350,000 from a finance company under the terms of a credit facility that is secured by the Company's future credit card receivables.  Terms of the credit facility require repayment on each business day of principal and interest at a daily rate of $1,507 over a twelve month period. The credit facility had a financing fee of 12% (equal to $42,000) on the principal amount, which equates to an effective annual interest rate of 21.1%.  The credit facility is personally guaranteed by the Company's CEO and majority shareholder, Louis Friedman.  On June 3, 2009, the Company borrowed an additional $200,000 under this credit facility. Terms of the current loan require repayment on each business day of principal and interest at a daily rate of $1,723.08 over a six month period. The current loan has a financing fee of 12% (equal to $24,000) on the principal amount, which equates to an effective annual interest rate of 43.2%.  The amount owed on the credit card advance was $102,609 at September 30, 2009 and $198,935 at June 30, 2009.
 
NOTE 8 – UNSECURED LINES OF CREDIT
 
The Company has drawn cash advances on three unsecured lines of credit that are personally guaranteed by Louis S. Friedman. The terms of these unsecured lines of credit call for monthly payments of principal and interest, with interest rates ranging from 12% to 18%. The aggregate amount owed on the three unsecured lines of credit was $119,071 at September 30, 2009 and $124,989 at June 30, 2009.

NOTE 9 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Common Stock Issuance
On September 2, 2009, Liberator, Inc. acquired the majority of the issued and outstanding common stock of  the Company in accordance with a common stock purchase agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) by and among Liberator, Inc. (“Liberator” or the “Purchaser”) and Belmont Partners, LLC, a Virginia limited liability company (“Belmont” or the “Seller”) and the Company.  On the Closing Date, pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, Liberator acquired 972,000 shares ( 80.7%)of the  Company from the Seller for a total of two hundred and forty thousand and five hundred dollars ($240,500) in addition to the issuance of two hundred and fifty thousand (250,000) warrants to Belmont purchase an equal number of shares of the Company’s common stock with an exercise price of twenty five cents ($0.25), the issuance to Belmont of a total of one million  five hundred thousand (1,500,000) shares of the Company’s common stock with seven hundred and fifty thousand (750,000) shares delivered on the Closing Date and the balance of seven hundred fifty thousand (750,000) shares delivered on the one (1) year anniversary of the Closing Date (collectively, the “Purchase Price”).

NOTE 10–  INCOME TAXES
 
There is no income tax provision (benefit) for federal or state income taxes as the Company has incurred operating losses since inception. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of net operating loss and tax credit carryovers and temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.

Utilization of the net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards may be subject to a substantial annual limitation due to the ownership change limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and similar state provisions. The Company may have experienced a change of control which could result in a substantial reduction to the previously reported net operating losses at June 30, 2009; however, the Company has not performed a change of control study and therefore has not determined if such change has taken place and if such a change has occurred the related reduction to the net operating loss carryforwards.  As of September 30, 2009, the net operating loss carryforwards continue to be fully reserved and any reduction in such amounts as a result of this study would also reduce the related valuation allowances resulting in no net impact to the financial results of the Company.

The Company applies the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No.48 (“FIN 48”) “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109.”  As of September 30, 2009, there was no significant liability for income tax associated with unrecognized tax benefits. 

With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, and non-U.S. income tax examination by tax authorities for tax years before 2002.

In connection with the purchase of majority control of the Company by Liberator on September 2, 2009, the Company issued 750,000 shares of common stock to Belmont Partners LLC upon the closing of the transaction and agreed to issue an additional 750,000 share on the one-year anniversary of the transaction upon the non-occurrence of certain events. The fair market value of the 750,000 shares of common stock issued was determined to be $187,500 ($.25 per share) and was charged to expense during the three months ended September 30, 2009.

Preferred Stock On October 19, 2009 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a Merger and Recapitalization Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Liberator, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Liberator”).  Pursuant to the Agreement, Liberator merged with and into the Company, with the Company surviving as the sole remaining entity (the “Merger”).

Pursuant to the Agreement, each Series A Preferred Share of Liberator (the “Liberator Preferred Shares”) were to be converted into one share of the Company’s preferred stock with the provisions, rights, and designations set forth in the Agreement (the “WES Preferred Stock”).  On the Closing Date, the Company was not authorized to issue any preferred stock and therefore pursuant to the agreement, it was agreed that within ten (10) days of the Closing Date the Company will take the appropriate steps to file an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation authorizing the issuance of the WES Preferred Stock, and at such time the WES Preferred Stock will be exchanged pursuant to the terms of the Agreement.  The WES Preferred Stock will have the same rights and preferences as the Liberator Preferred Shares and will be convertible into 4,300,000 shares of common stock after July 1, 2011.

At such time as the Company has filed an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation authorizing the issuance of the WES Preferred Stock, the Company will have 10,000,000 million shares of Preferred Stock, par value $.0001 with 4,300,000 shares of preferred stock designated as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

First Quarter of Fiscal 2010 Compared to First Quarter of Fiscal 2009

Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2009 decreased from the comparable prior year period by $626,780, or 24%.  The decrease in sales was experienced in all sales channels. Consumer sales decreased from $1,387,227 in the first quarter of fiscal 2009 to $1,169,788 in the first quarter of fiscal 2010, a decrease of approximately 16%, or $217,439.  One of the most frequent consumer discount offers during the three months ended September 30, 2009 was “free” or significantly reduced shipping and handling, which accounts for the decrease in the Other category revenue and gross profit from the prior year comparable period.  Sales to Wholesale customers had the largest decrease during the first quarter from the prior year first quarter, both in dollars and as a percentage, decreasing 28% or $265,360. Sales to wholesale customers is expected to increase during the second quarter of fiscal 2010 (the three months ended December 31, 2009) as a result of new accounts being added and as wholesale customers increase their inventory levels prior to the Christmas holiday. We attribute the overall decrease in sales to the current economic uncertainty and overall decreases in domestic consumer spending, as our products are typically a discretionary purchase.    

Gross profit, derived from net sales less the cost of product sales, includes the cost of materials, direct labor, manufacturing overhead and depreciation.  Gross margin as a percentage of sales increased slightly to 32% for the three months ended September 30, 2009 from 31% in the comparable prior year period.  This is primarily the result of an increase in the proportion of higher margin Direct to consumer sales to total net sales during the quarter from the comparable prior year period. Direct to consumer sales accounted for 57% of total net sales, compared to 52% in the prior year first quarter. In addition, the gross profit margin on Direct to consumer sales increased to 43% during the three months ended September 30, 2009 from 41% in the comparable prior year period.  Gross profit on the Wholesale sales increased as a result of a price increase that was implemented during the third quarter of fiscal 2009.  The Gross profit on the Other category decreased from a positive $78,223 to a negative margin of $23,123 as a result of the “free” or reduced shipping and handling charge promotions that were offered during the first quarter of fiscal 2010.  In the current economic environment, we anticipate the need to continue to offer “free” or reduced shipping and handling to consumers as a promotional tool.

Total operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2009 were 46% of net sales, or $932,970, compared to 42% of net sales, or $1,126,589, for the same period in the prior year.  This 17% decrease in operating expenses was the result of lower expenses in all categories including advertising and promotion costs, other selling and marketing costs, general and administrative costs and depreciation expense.

Advertising and promotion expenses decreased by 32% (or $82,648) from $260,780 in the first quarter of fiscal 2009 to $178,132 in the first quarter of fiscal 2010.  Advertising and promotion expenses were reduced during the first quarter of fiscal 2010 as part of an on going program to improve the targeting, timing and effectiveness of advertising spending.  Other Selling and Marketing costs decreased 18% (or $53,582) from the first quarter of fiscal 2009 to the current quarter of fiscal 2010, primarily as a result of lower professional fees and graphic services cost which was partially offset by higher trade show and travel costs.

General and administrative costs decreased by 8% (or $40,015) from $484,134 in the first quarter of fiscal 2009 to $444,119 in the first quarter of fiscal 2010. This was primarily the result of lower utility costs and lower product development payroll related costs during the current year first quarter.

Other income (expense) during the first quarter increased from expense of ($61,765) in fiscal 2009 to expense of ($419,526) in fiscal 2010.  Interest (expense) and financing costs in the current quarter included $5,358 from the amortization of the debt discount on the convertible note. Expenses related to the reverse acquisition of Liberator, Inc. during the first quarter of fiscal 2010 totaled $394,125.  This item consists of $192,167 for the discounted face value of the $250,000 convertible note payable to Hope Capital, $14,458 for the fair market value of the warrant to purchase 250,000 shares issued to Belmont Partners LLC, and $187,500 for the fair market value of the 750,000 Company shares issued to Belmont Partners LLC.  All of the expenses related to the reverse acquisition included in other income (expense) are non-cash expenses.

No expense or benefit from income taxes was recorded in the three months ended September 30, 2009 or 2008.  The Company does not expect any U.S. Federal or state income taxes to be recorded for the current fiscal year because of available net operating loss carry-forwards.

The Company had a net loss of $690,020, or ($0.01) per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2009 compared with a net loss of $351,270, or ($0.01) per diluted share, for the year ended September 30, 2008.

Variability of Results
 
The Company has experienced significant quarterly fluctuations in operating results and anticipates that these fluctuations may continue in future periods. As described in previous paragraphs, operating results have fluctuated as a result of changes in sales levels to consumers and wholesalers, competition, costs associated with new product introductions and increases in raw material costs. In addition, future operating results may fluctuate as a result of factors beyond the Company’s control such as foreign exchange fluctuation, changes in government regulations, and economic changes in the regions in which it operates and sells.  A portion of our operating expenses are relatively fixed and the timing of increases in expense levels is based in large part on forecasts of future sales. Therefore, if net sales are below expectations in any given period, the adverse impact on results of operations may be magnified by our inability to meaningfully adjust spending in certain areas, or the inability to adjust spending quickly enough, as in personnel and administrative costs, to compensate for a sales shortfall. We may also choose to reduce prices or increase spending in response to market conditions, and these decisions may have a material adverse effect on financial condition and results of operations.

Financial Condition
 
Cash and cash equivalents decreased $1,590,491 to $229,355 at September 30, 2009 from $1,819,846 at June 30, 2009. This decrease in cash resulted from cash used in operating activities of $1,162,003, cash used in investing  activities of $97,688, and by cash used in financing activities of $330,800, as more fully described below.

Cash used in operating activities for the three months ended September 30, 2009 represents the results of operations adjusted for non-cash depreciation ($58,749) and the non-cash deferred rent accrual reversal $4,854, the non-cash expenses related to the reverse acquisition of $394,125, a non-cash gain on the forgiveness of debt of $31,179. Changes in operating assets and liabilities include an increase in accounts receivable of $84,873, and increase in inventory of $74,141 and an increase in prepaid expenses and other assets of $50,886.  Additional cash was used to reduce accounts payable by $581,633 during the three months ended September 30, 2009, and reduce accrued compensation and accrued expenses and interest by $33,493 and $69,631, respectively.

Cash flows used in investing activities reflects capital expenditures during the quarter ended September 30, 2009. The largest component of capital expenditures during the three months ended September 30, 2009, was the Company’s project to upgrade its e-commerce platform and ERP system. Expenditures on the e-commerce platform and ERP system, as of September 30, 2009, total approximately $344,000 and the systems were operational and in use as of September 1, 2009.

Cash flows used in financing activities are attributable to the repayment of the revolving line of credit of $171,433, repayment of the credit card cash advance of $96,326, and principal payments on notes payable and capital leases totaling $36,920.
 
As of September 30, 2009, the Company’s net accounts receivable increased by $84,873, or 24%, to $431,303 from $346,430 at June 30, 2009. The increase in accounts receivable is primarily the result of increased sales to certain wholesale accounts near the end of September, 2009. Management believes that its accounts receivable are collectible net of the allowance for doubtful accounts of $15,178 at September 30, 2009.
 
The Company’s net inventory increased $74,141, or 11%, to $774,544 as of September 30, 2009 compared to $700,403 as of June 30, 2009. The increase reflects an increase in finished goods inventory in anticipation of increased product sales during the three months ended December 31, 2009.
 
Accounts payable decreased $581,633 or 26%, to $1,666,212 as of September 30, 2009 compared to $2,247,845 as of June 30, 2009. The decrease in accounts payable was the result of the Company’s improved working capital position that resulted from the net proceeds of the private placement of Liberator, Inc.’s common stock that closed on June 26, 2009.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
At September 30, 2009, the Company’s working capital deficiency was $536,823, a decrease of $434,912 compared to the deficiency of $101,911 at June 30, 2009.  Cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2009 totaled $229,355, a decrease of $1,590,491 from $1,819,846 at June 30, 2009.

On November 10, 2009, the Company entered into a loan agreement for a revolving line of credit with a commercial finance company which provides credit to 80% of domestic accounts receivable aged less than 90 days up to $250,000. Borrowings under the agreement bear interest at Prime rate plus six percent (9.25 percent as of November 10, 2009) plus a 2% annual facility fee and a .25% monthly collateral monitoring fee, as defined in the agreement.

Management believes anticipated cash flows generated from operations during the second and third quarter of fiscal 2010, along with current cash and cash equivalents as well as borrowing capacity under the line of credit should be sufficient to finance working capital requirements required by operations during the next twelve months. However, if product sales are less than anticipated during the three months ended December 31, 2009 and the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company will need to raise additional funding in the near term to meet its working capital requirements. If the Company raises additional capital by issuing equity securities, its existing stockholders’ ownership will be diluted.  The Company cannot provide assurance that additional financing will be available in the near term when needed, particularly in light of the current economic environment and adverse conditions in the financial markets, or that, if available, financing will be obtained on terms favorable to the Company or to the Company’s stockholders.  If the Company requires additional financing in the near-term and is unable to obtain it, this will adversely affect the Company’s ability to operate as a going concern and may require the Company to substantial scale back operations or cease operations altogether.
 
Sufficiency of Liquidity
 
Based upon our current operating plan, analysis of our consolidated financial position and projected future results of operations, we believe that our cash balances and anticipated operating cash flows during the second and third quarters of fiscal 2010, together with additional borrowing of less than $250,000, will be sufficient to finance current operating requirements, debt service, and planned capital expenditures, for the next 12 months.
 
Capital Resources
 
The Company does not currently have any material commitments for capital expenditures. The Company expects total capital expenditures for the remainder of fiscal 2010 to be under $50,000 and to be funded by capital leases and, to a lesser extent, anticipated operating cash flows and borrowings under the revolving line of credit. This includes capital expenditures in support of the Company’s normal operations, and expenditures that we may incur in conjunction with initiatives to further upgrade our e-commerce platform and enterprise resource planning system (ERP system.)
 
If our business plans and cost estimates are inaccurate and our operations require additional cash or if we deviate from our current plans, we could be required to seek additional debt financing for particular projects or for ongoing operational needs.  This indebtedness could harm our business if we are unable to obtain additional financing on reasonable terms.  In addition, any indebtedness we incur in the future could subject us to restrictive covenants limiting our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to changes in, our business.  If we do not comply with such covenants, our lenders could accelerate repayment of our debt or restrict our access to further borrowings, which in turn could restrict our operating flexibility and endanger our ability to continue operations.
 
Item 3.        Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
 
We do not enter into any transactions using derivative financial instruments or derivative commodity instruments and believe that our exposure to market risk associated with other financial instruments is not material.
 
As of November 16, 2009 we have one loan which adjusts based on the prime rate. As such, we are exposed to the interest rate risk whereby a 1% increase in the prime rate would lead to an increase of approximately $2,500 in interest expense for the year ending June 30, 2010 (based on full utilization of the credit facility.)

Item 4T. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

(ii)           Distributions.  If the Company or any of its subsidiaries, at any time while the Note is outstanding, shall distribute to all holders of Common Stock evidences of its indebtedness or assets or cash or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, then concurrently with such distributions to holders of Common Stock, the Company shall distribute to holder of the Note the amount of such indebtedness, assets, cash or rights or warrants which the holder of Note would have received had all the Note then held been converted into Common Stock at the applicable Conversion Price immediately prior to the record date for such distribution.
 
(iii)           Rounding of Adjustments. All calculations under this Section 3 or Section 2 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be.

The afore described purchase price per share, as adjusted from time to time as herein provided, is referred to herein as the “Purchase Price.”  The number and character of such shares of Common Stock and the Purchase Price are subject to adjustment as provided herein.

As used herein the following terms, unless the context otherwise requires, have the following respective meanings:
 
(a)           The term “Company” shall include REMARK ENTERPRISES INC. and any corporation which shall succeed or assume the obligations of REMARK ENTERPRISES INC. hereunder.

(d)           The term “Warrant Shares” shall mean the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.
 
1.             Exercise of Warrant.

1.3.           Partial Exercise.  This Warrant may be exercised in part (but not for a fractional share) by surrender of this Warrant in the manner and at the place provided in subsection 1.2 except that the amount payable by the Holder on such partial exercise shall be the amount obtained by multiplying (a) the number of whole shares of Common Stock designated by the Holder in the Subscription Form by (b) the Purchase Price then in effect.  On any such partial exercise, the Company, at its expense, will forthwith issue and deliver to or upon the order of the Holder hereof a new Warrant of like tenor, in the name of the Holder hereof or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may request, the whole number of shares of Common Stock for which such Warrant may still be exercised.
 
1.4.           Fair Market Value. Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock as of a particular date (the “Determination Date”) shall mean:

 (d)           If the Determination Date is the date of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up, or any event deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up pursuant to the Company’s charter, then all amounts to be payable per share to holders of the Common Stock pursuant to the charter in the event of such liquidation, dissolution or winding up, plus all other amounts to be payable per share in respect of the Common Stock in liquidation under the charter, assuming for the purposes of this clause (d) that all of the shares of Common Stock then issuable upon exercise of all of the Warrants are outstanding at the Determination Date.
 
1.5.           Company Acknowledgment. The Company will, at the time of the exercise of the Warrant, upon the request of the Holder hereof acknowledge in writing its continuing obligation to afford to such Holder any rights to which such Holder shall continue to be entitled after such exercise in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. If the Holder shall fail to make any such request, such failure shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Company to afford to such Holder any such rights.
 
1.6.           Trustee for Warrant Holders. In the event that a qualified bank or trust company shall have been appointed as trustee for the Holder of the Warrants pursuant to Subsection 3.2, such bank or trust company shall have all the powers and duties of a warrant agent (as hereinafter described) and shall accept, in its own name for the account of the Company or such successor person as may be entitled thereto, all amounts otherwise payable to the Company or such successor, as the case may be, on exercise of this Warrant pursuant to this Section 1.
 
1.7           Delivery of Stock Certificates, etc. on Exercise. The Company agrees that the shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to be issued to the Holder hereof as the record owner of such shares as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered and payment made for such shares as aforesaid. As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in full or in part, and in any event within three (3) business days thereafter, the Company at its expense (including the payment by it of any applicable issue taxes) will cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to the Holder hereof, or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct in compliance with applicable securities laws, a certificate or certificates for the number of duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) to which such Holder shall be entitled on such exercise, plus, in lieu of any fractional share to which such Holder would otherwise be entitled, cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the then Fair Market Value of one full share of Common Stock, together with any other stock or other securities and property (including cash, where applicable) to which such Holder is entitled upon such exercise pursuant to Section 1 or otherwise.
 
 
2

 
 
 2.           Cashless Exercise.
 
(a)           Except as described below, if a Registration Statement is effective and the Holder may sell its shares of Common Stock upon exercise hereof pursuant to the Registration Statement, this Warrant may be exercisable in whole or in part for cash only as set forth in Section 1 above.  If no such Registration Statement is available, then commencing six months after the Issue Date, payment upon exercise may be made at the option of the Holder either in (i) cash, wire transfer or by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company equal to the applicable aggregate Purchase Price, (ii) by cashless exercise in accordance with Section (b) below or (iii) by a combination of any of the foregoing methods, for the number of shares of Common Stock specified in such form (as such exercise number shall be adjusted to reflect any adjustment in the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the Holder per the terms of this Warrant) and the Holder shall thereupon be entitled to receive the number of duly authorized, validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) determined as provided herein.
 
(b)           If the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock is greater than the Purchase Price (at the date of calculation as set forth below), in lieu of exercising this Warrant for cash, the Holder may elect to receive shares equal to the value (as determined below) of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being cancelled) by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with the properly endorsed Subscription Form in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula:
 
X=Y (A-B)
          A
 
Where     
X=
the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the holder
 
 
Y=
the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable under the Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised, the portion of the Warrant being exercised (at the date of such calculation)
 
 
A=
the Fair Market Value of one share of the Company’s Common Stock (at the date of such calculation)
 
 
B=
Purchase Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation)
 
For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act, as amended, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a cashless exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant.
 
3.           Adjustment for Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, etc.
 
3.1.           Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, etc.  In case at any time or from time to time, the Company shall (a) effect a reorganization, (b) consolidate with or merge into any other person or (c) transfer all or substantially all of its properties or assets to any other person under any plan or arrangement contemplating the dissolution of the Company, then, in each such case, as a condition to the consummation of such a transaction, proper and adequate provision shall be made by the Company whereby the Holder of this Warrant, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1, at any time after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of such dissolution, as the case may be, shall receive, in lieu of the Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such consummation or such effective date, the stock and other securities and property (including cash) to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such consummation or in connection with such dissolution, as the case may be, if such Holder had so exercised this Warrant, immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment thereafter as provided in Section 4.

 
3

 
 
3.2.           Dissolution.  In the event of any dissolution of the Company following the transfer of all or substantially all of its properties or assets, the Company, prior to such dissolution, shall at its expense deliver or cause to be delivered the stock and other securities and property (including cash, where applicable) receivable in accordance with Section 3.1 by the Holder of the Warrants upon their exercise after the effective date of such dissolution pursuant to this Section 3 to a bank or trust company (a “Trustee”) having its principal office in New York, NY, as trustee for the Holder of the Warrants.
 
3.3.           Continuation of Terms.  Upon any reorganization, consolidation, merger or transfer (and any dissolution following any transfer) referred to in this Section 3, this Warrant shall continue in full force and effect and the terms hereof shall be applicable to the Other Securities and property receivable on the exercise of this Warrant after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of dissolution following any such transfer, as the case may be, and shall be binding upon the issuer of any Other Securities, including, in the case of any such transfer, the person acquiring all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Company, whether or not such person shall have expressly assumed the terms of this Warrant as provided in Section 4.  In the event this Warrant does not continue in full force and effect after the consummation of the transaction described in this Section 3, then only in such event will the Company’s securities and property (including cash, where applicable) receivable by the Holder of the Warrants be delivered to the Trustee as contemplated by Section 3.2.
 
4.           Extraordinary Events Regarding Common Stock.  In the event that the Company shall (a) issue additional shares of the Common Stock as a dividend or other distribution on outstanding Common Stock, (b) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock, or (c) combine its outstanding shares of the Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of the Common Stock, then, in each such event, the Purchase Price shall, simultaneously with the happening of such event, be adjusted by multiplying the then Purchase Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the product so obtained shall thereafter be the Purchase Price then in effect. The Purchase Price, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any successive event or events described herein in this Section 4. The number of shares of Common Stock that the Holder of this Warrant shall thereafter, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1, be entitled to receive shall be adjusted to a number determined by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4) be issuable on such exercise by a fraction of which (a) the numerator is the Purchase Price that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4) be in effect, and (b) the denominator is the Purchase Price in effect on the date of such exercise.
 
5.           Certificate as to Adjustments.  In each case of any adjustment or readjustment in the shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on the exercise of the Warrants, the Company at its expense will promptly cause its Chief Financial Officer or other appropriate designee to compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms of the Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based, including a statement of (a) the consideration received or receivable by the Company for any additional shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold, (b) the number of shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) outstanding or deemed to be outstanding, and (c) the Purchase Price and the number of shares of Common Stock to be received upon exercise of this Warrant, in effect immediately prior to such adjustment or readjustment and as adjusted or readjusted as provided in this Warrant. The Company will forthwith mail a copy of each such certificate to the Holder of the Warrant and any Warrant Agent of the Company (appointed pursuant to Section 11 hereof).
 
6.           Reservation of Stock, etc. Issuable on Exercise of Warrant; Financial Statements.   The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery on the exercise of the Warrants, all shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) from time to time issuable on the exercise of the Warrant.  This Warrant entitles the Holder hereof to receive copies of all financial and other information distributed or required to be distributed to the holders of the Company’s Common Stock.

7.           Assignment; Exchange of Warrant.  Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, this Warrant, and the rights evidenced hereby, may be transferred by any registered holder hereof (a “Transferor”). On the surrender for exchange of this Warrant, with the Transferor’s endorsement in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto (the “Transferor Endorsement Form”) and together with an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that the transfer of this Warrant will be in compliance with applicable securities laws, the Company at its expense, twice, only, but with payment by the Transferor of any applicable transfer taxes, will issue and deliver to or on the order of the Transferor thereof a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor, in the name of the Transferor and/or the transferee(s) specified in such Transferor Endorsement Form (each a “Transferee”), calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock called for on the face or faces of the Warrant so surrendered by the Transferor.  No such transfers shall result in a public distribution of the Warrant.
 
8.           Replacement of Warrant.  On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction of this Warrant, on delivery of an indemnity agreement or security reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of any such mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company at its expense, twice only, will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.
 
9.           Registration Rights.  Promptly following the date hereof, the Company shall prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement on Form S-1 (or, if Form S-1 is not then available to the Company, on such form of registration statement as is then available to effect a registration for resale of the underlying securities with respect to this Warrant issued to the Holder covering the resale of such underlying securities).  Such registration statement also shall cover, to the extent allowable under the 1933 Act and the Rules promulgated thereunder (including Rule 416), such indeterminate number of additional shares of Common Stock resulting from stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions with respect to the underlying securities.
 
10.         Maximum Exercise.  The Holder shall not be entitled to exercise this Warrant on an exercise date, in connection with that number of shares of Common Stock which would be in excess of the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates on an exercise date, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the determination of this limitation is being made on an exercise date, which would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock on such date.  For the purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Regulation 13d-3 thereunder.  Subject to the foregoing, the Holder shall not be limited to aggregate exercises which would result in the issuance of more than 9.99%.  The restriction described in this paragraph may be waived, in whole or in part, upon sixty-one (61) days prior notice from the Holder to the Company.  The Holder may decide whether to convert a Convertible Note or exercise this Warrant to achieve an actual 9.99% ownership position.
 
11.         Warrant Agent.  The Company may, by written notice to the Holder of the Warrant, appoint an agent (a “Warrant Agent”) for the purpose of issuing Common Stock (or Other Securities) on the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to Section 1, exchanging this Warrant pursuant to Section 7, and replacing this Warrant pursuant to Section 8, or any of the foregoing, and thereafter any such issuance, exchange or replacement, as the case may be, shall be made at such office by such Warrant Agent.
 
12.         Transfer on the Companys Books.  Until this Warrant is transferred on the books of the Company, the Company may treat the registered holder hereof as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.
 
13.         Notices.   All notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals, and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and, unless otherwise specified herein, shall be (i) personally served, (ii) deposited in the mail, registered or certified, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, (iii) delivered by reputable air courier service with charges prepaid, or (iv) transmitted by hand delivery, telegram, or facsimile, addressed as set forth below or to such other address as such party shall have specified most recently by written notice.  Any notice or other communication required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be deemed effective (a) upon hand delivery or delivery by facsimile, with accurate confirmation generated by the transmitting facsimile machine, at the address or number designated below (if delivered on a business day during normal business hours where such notice is to be received), or the first business day following such delivery (if delivered other than on a business day during normal business hours where such notice is to be received) or (b) on the second business day following the date of mailing by express courier service, fully prepaid, addressed to such address, or upon actual receipt of such mailing, whichever shall first occur or (c) three business days after deposited in t he mail if delivered pursuant to subsection (ii) above.  The addresses for such communications shall be: (i) if to the Company to: REMARK ENTERPRISES INC.,  2745 Bankers Industrial Drive, Atlanta, GA, 30360 (ii) if to the Holder, to Hope Capital Inc, 1 Linden Place, Suite 207, Great Neck, NY 11021.

14.         Agreement Not a Contract of Employment or Other Relationship.  This Warrant is not a contract of employment or other relationship, and the terms that Holder acts as a consultant (or employee) or any other relationship of the Holder with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates shall not be affected in any way by this Warrant except as specifically provided herein.  The execution of this Warrant shall not be construed as conferring any legal rights upon the Holder for continuation as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company (or employee) of the Company or for the continuation of any other relationship with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, nor shall it interfere with the right of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates to treat the Holder without regard to the effect which such treatment might have upon him as a Holder.

15.         Miscellaneous.  This Warrant and any term hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement of such change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought. This Warrant shall be construed and enforced in accordance with and governed by the laws of New York.  Any dispute relating to this Warrant shall be adjudicated in New York County in the State of New York.  The headings in this Warrant are for purposes of reference only, and shall not limit or otherwise affect any of the terms hereof.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision.

(d)           If the Determination Date is the date of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up, or any event deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up pursuant to the Company’s charter, then all amounts to be payable per share to holders of the Common Stock pursuant to the charter in the event of such liquidation, dissolution or winding up, plus all other amounts to be payable per share in respect of the Common Stock in liquidation under the charter, assuming for the purposes of this clause (d) that all of the shares of Common Stock then issuable upon exercise of all of the Warrants are outstanding at the Determination Date.
 
1.5.       Company Acknowledgment. The Company will, at the time of the exercise of the Warrant, upon the request of the Holder hereof acknowledge in writing its continuing obligation to afford to such Holder any rights to which such Holder shall continue to be entitled after such exercise in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. If the Holder shall fail to make any such request, such failure shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Company to afford to such Holder any such rights.

 2.          Cashless Exercise.
 
(a)           Except as described below, if a Registration Statement is effective and the Holder may sell its shares of Common Stock upon exercise hereof pursuant to the Registration Statement, this Warrant may be exercisable in whole or in part for cash only as set forth in Section 1 above.  If no such Registration Statement is available, then commencing six months after the Issue Date, payment upon exercise may be made at the option of the Holder either in (i) cash, wire transfer or by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company equal to the applicable aggregate Purchase Price, (ii) by cashless exercise in accordance with Section (b) below or (iii) by a combination of any of the foregoing methods, for the number of shares of Common Stock specified in such form (as such exercise number shall be adjusted to reflect any adjustment in the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the Holder per the terms of this Warrant) and the Holder shall thereupon be entitled to receive the number of duly authorized, validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) determined as provided herein.
 
(b)           If the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock is greater than the Purchase Price (at the date of calculation as set forth below), in lieu of exercising this Warrant for cash, the Holder may elect to receive shares equal to the value (as determined below) of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being cancelled) by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with the properly endorsed Subscription Form in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula:
 
  X=Y (A-B)
            A

Where
X=
the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the holder
     
 
Y=
the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable under the Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised, the portion of the Warrant being exercised (at the date of such calculation)
 
A=
the Fair Market Value of one share of the Company’s Common Stock (at the date of such calculation)
 
B=
Purchase Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation)
 
For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act, as amended, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a cashless exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant.
 
3.           Adjustment for Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, etc.
 
3.1.           Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, etc.  In case at any time or from time to time, the Company shall (a) effect a reorganization, (b) consolidate with or merge into any other person or (c) transfer all or substantially all of its properties or assets to any other person under any plan or arrangement contemplating the dissolution of the Company, then, in each such case, as a condition to the consummation of such a transaction, proper and adequate provision shall be made by the Company whereby the Holder of this Warrant, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1, at any time after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of such dissolution, as the case may be, shall receive, in lieu of the Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such consummation or such effective date, the stock and other securities and property (including cash) to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such consummation or in connection with such dissolution, as the case may be, if such Holder had so exercised this Warrant, immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment thereafter as provided in Section 4.
 
 
3

 
 
3.2.           Dissolution.  In the event of any dissolution of the Company following the transfer of all or substantially all of its properties or assets, the Company, prior to such dissolution, shall at its expense deliver or cause to be delivered the stock and other securities and property (including cash, where applicable) receivable in accordance with Section 3.1 by the Holder of the Warrants upon their exercise after the effective date of such dissolution pursuant to this Section 3 to a bank or trust company (a “Trustee”) having its principal office in New York, NY, as trustee for the Holder of the Warrants.
 
3.3.           Continuation of Terms.  Upon any reorganization, consolidation, merger or transfer (and any dissolution following any transfer) referred to in this Section 3, this Warrant shall continue in full force and effect and the terms hereof shall be applicable to the Other Securities and property receivable on the exercise of this Warrant after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of dissolution following any such transfer, as the case may be, and shall be binding upon the issuer of any Other Securities, including, in the case of any such transfer, the person acquiring all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Company, whether or not such person shall have expressly assumed the terms of this Warrant as provided in Section 4.  In the event this Warrant does not continue in full force and effect after the consummation of the transaction described in this Section 3, then only in such event will the Company’s securities and property (including cash, where applicable) receivable by the Holder of the Warrants be delivered to the Trustee as contemplated by Section 3.2.
 
4.           Extraordinary Events Regarding Common Stock.  In the event that the Company shall (a) issue additional shares of the Common Stock as a dividend or other distribution on outstanding Common Stock, (b) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock, or (c) combine its outstanding shares of the Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of the Common Stock, then, in each such event, the Purchase Price shall, simultaneously with the happening of such event, be adjusted by multiplying the then Purchase Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the product so obtained shall thereafter be the Purchase Price then in effect. The Purchase Price, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any successive event or events described herein in this Section 4. The number of shares of Common Stock that the Holder of this Warrant shall thereafter, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1, be entitled to receive shall be adjusted to a number determined by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4) be issuable on such exercise by a fraction of which (a) the numerator is the Purchase Price that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4) be in effect, and (b) the denominator is the Purchase Price in effect on the date of such exercise.
 
5.           Certificate as to Adjustments.  In each case of any adjustment or readjustment in the shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on the exercise of the Warrants, the Company at its expense will promptly cause its Chief Financial Officer or other appropriate designee to compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms of the Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based, including a statement of (a) the consideration received or receivable by the Company for any additional shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold, (b) the number of shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) outstanding or deemed to be outstanding, and (c) the Purchase Price and the number of shares of Common Stock to be received upon exercise of this Warrant, in effect immediately prior to such adjustment or readjustment and as adjusted or readjusted as provided in this Warrant. The Company will forthwith mail a copy of each such certificate to the Holder of the Warrant and any Warrant Agent of the Company (appointed pursuant to Section 11 hereof).
 
6.           Reservation of Stock, etc. Issuable on Exercise of Warrant; Financial Statements.   The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery on the exercise of the Warrants, all shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) from time to time issuable on the exercise of the Warrant.  This Warrant entitles the Holder hereof to receive copies of all financial and other information distributed or required to be distributed to the holders of the Company’s Common Stock.

7.           Assignment; Exchange of Warrant.  Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, this Warrant, and the rights evidenced hereby, may be transferred by any registered holder hereof (a “Transferor”). On the surrender for exchange of this Warrant, with the Transferor’s endorsement in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto (the “Transferor Endorsement Form”) and together with an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that the transfer of this Warrant will be in compliance with applicable securities laws, the Company at its expense, twice, only, but with payment by the Transferor of any applicable transfer taxes, will issue and deliver to or on the order of the Transferor thereof a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor, in the name of the Transferor and/or the transferee(s) specified in such Transferor Endorsement Form (each a “Transferee”), calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock called for on the face or faces of the Warrant so surrendered by the Transferor.  No such transfers shall result in a public distribution of the Warrant.
 
8.           Replacement of Warrant.  On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction of this Warrant, on delivery of an indemnity agreement or security reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of any such mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company at its expense, twice only, will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.
 
9.           Registration Rights.  Promptly following the date hereof, the Company shall prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement on Form S-1 (or, if Form S-1 is not then available to the Company, on such form of registration statement as is then available to effect a registration for resale of the underlying securities with respect to this Warrant issued to the Holder covering the resale of such underlying securities).  Such registration statement also shall cover, to the extent allowable under the 1933 Act and the Rules promulgated thereunder (including Rule 416), such indeterminate number of additional shares of Common Stock resulting from stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions with respect to the underlying securities.
 
10.           Maximum Exercise.  The Holder shall not be entitled to exercise this Warrant on an exercise date, in connection with that number of shares of Common Stock which would be in excess of the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates on an exercise date, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the determination of this limitation is being made on an exercise date, which would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock on such date.  For the purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Regulation 13d-3 thereunder.  Subject to the foregoing, the Holder shall not be limited to aggregate exercises which would result in the issuance of more than 9.99%. The restriction described in this paragraph may be waived, in whole or in part, upon sixty-one (61) days prior notice from the Holder to the Company.
 
11.           Warrant Agent.  The Company may, by written notice to the Holder of the Warrant, appoint an agent (a “Warrant Agent”) for the purpose of issuing Common Stock (or Other Securities) on the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to Section 1, exchanging this Warrant pursuant to Section 7, and replacing this Warrant pursuant to Section 8, or any of the foregoing, and thereafter any such issuance, exchange or replacement, as the case may be, shall be made at such office by such Warrant Agent.

(b)           If the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock is greater than the Purchase Price (at the date of calculation as set forth below), in lieu of exercising this Warrant for cash, the Holder may elect to receive shares equal to the value (as determined below) of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being cancelled) by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with the properly endorsed Subscription Form in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula:

X=Y (A-B)
          A

Where
X= the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the holder
     
 
Y=
the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable under the Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised, the portion of the Warrant being exercised (at the date of such calculation)
 
 
A=
the Fair Market Value of one share of the Company’s Common Stock (at the date of such calculation)
 
 
B=
Purchase Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation)
 
For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act, as amended, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a cashless exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant.
 
3.            Adjustment for Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, etc.
 
3.1.           Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, etc.  In case at any time or from time to time, the Company shall (a) effect a reorganization, (b) consolidate with or merge into any other person or (c) transfer all or substantially all of its properties or assets to any other person under any plan or arrangement contemplating the dissolution of the Company, then, in each such case, as a condition to the consummation of such a transaction, proper and adequate provision shall be made by the Company whereby the Holder of this Warrant, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1, at any time after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of such dissolution, as the case may be, shall receive, in lieu of the Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such consummation or such effective date, the stock and other securities and property (including cash) to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such consummation or in connection with such dissolution, as the case may be, if such Holder had so exercised this Warrant, immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment thereafter as provided in Section 4.

 
3

 
 
3.2.           Dissolution.  In the event of any dissolution of the Company following the transfer of all or substantially all of its properties or assets, the Company, prior to such dissolution, shall at its expense deliver or cause to be delivered the stock and other securities and property (including cash, where applicable) receivable in accordance with Section 3.1 by the Holder of the Warrants upon their exercise after the effective date of such dissolution pursuant to this Section 3 to a bank or trust company (a “Trustee”) having its principal office in New York, NY, as trustee for the Holder of the Warrants.
 
3.3.           Continuation of Terms.  Upon any reorganization, consolidation, merger or transfer (and any dissolution following any transfer) referred to in this Section 3, this Warrant shall continue in full force and effect and the terms hereof shall be applicable to the Other Securities and property receivable on the exercise of this Warrant after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of dissolution following any such transfer, as the case may be, and shall be binding upon the issuer of any Other Securities, including, in the case of any such transfer, the person acquiring all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Company, whether or not such person shall have expressly assumed the terms of this Warrant as provided in Section 4.  In the event this Warrant does not continue in full force and effect after the consummation of the transaction described in this Section 3, then only in such event will the Company’s securities and property (including cash, where applicable) receivable by the Holder of the Warrants be delivered to the Trustee as contemplated by Section 3.2.
 
4.           Extraordinary Events Regarding Common Stock.  In the event that the Company shall (a) issue additional shares of the Common Stock as a dividend or other distribution on outstanding Common Stock, (b) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock, or (c) combine its outstanding shares of the Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of the Common Stock, then, in each such event, the Purchase Price shall, simultaneously with the happening of such event, be adjusted by multiplying the then Purchase Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the product so obtained shall thereafter be the Purchase Price then in effect. The Purchase Price, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any successive event or events described herein in this Section 4. The number of shares of Common Stock that the Holder of this Warrant shall thereafter, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1, be entitled to receive shall be adjusted to a number determined by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4) be issuable on such exercise by a fraction of which (a) the numerator is the Purchase Price that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4) be in effect, and (b) the denominator is the Purchase Price in effect on the date of such exercise.
 
5.           Certificate as to Adjustments.  In each case of any adjustment or readjustment in the shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on the exercise of the Warrants, the Company at its expense will promptly cause its Chief Financial Officer or other appropriate designee to compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms of the Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based, including a statement of (a) the consideration received or receivable by the Company for any additional shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold, (b) the number of shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) outstanding or deemed to be outstanding, and (c) the Purchase Price and the number of shares of Common Stock to be received upon exercise of this Warrant, in effect immediately prior to such adjustment or readjustment and as adjusted or readjusted as provided in this Warrant. The Company will forthwith mail a copy of each such certificate to the Holder of the Warrant and any Warrant Agent of the Company (appointed pursuant to Section 11 hereof).
 
6.           Reservation of Stock, etc. Issuable on Exercise of Warrant; Financial Statements.   The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery on the exercise of the Warrants, all shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) from time to time issuable on the exercise of the Warrant.  This Warrant entitles the Holder hereof to receive copies of all financial and other information distributed or required to be distributed to the holders of the Company’s Common Stock.

7.           Assignment; Exchange of Warrant.  Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, this Warrant, and the rights evidenced hereby, may be transferred by any registered holder hereof (a “Transferor”). On the surrender for exchange of this Warrant, with the Transferor’s endorsement in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto (the “Transferor Endorsement Form”) and together with an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that the transfer of this Warrant will be in compliance with applicable securities laws, the Company at its expense, twice, only, but with payment by the Transferor of any applicable transfer taxes, will issue and deliver to or on the order of the Transferor thereof a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor, in the name of the Transferor and/or the transferee(s) specified in such Transferor Endorsement Form (each a “Transferee”), calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock called for on the face or faces of the Warrant so surrendered by the Transferor.  No such transfers shall result in a public distribution of the Warrant.
 
8.           Replacement of Warrant.  On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction of this Warrant, on delivery of an indemnity agreement or security reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of any such mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company at its expense, twice only, will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.
 
9.           Registration Rights.  Promptly following the date hereof, the Company shall prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement on Form S-1 (or, if Form S-1 is not then available to the Company, on such form of registration statement as is then available to effect a registration for resale of the underlying securities with respect to this Warrant issued to the Holder covering the resale of such underlying securities).  Such registration statement also shall cover, to the extent allowable under the 1933 Act and the Rules promulgated thereunder (including Rule 416), such indeterminate number of additional shares of Common Stock resulting from stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions with respect to the underlying securities.
 
10.           Maximum Exercise.  The Holder shall not be entitled to exercise this Warrant on an exercise date, in connection with that number of shares of Common Stock which would be in excess of the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates on an exercise date, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the determination of this limitation is being made on an exercise date, which would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock on such date.  For the purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Regulation 13d-3 thereunder.  Subject to the foregoing, the Holder shall not be limited to aggregate exercises which would result in the issuance of more than 9.99%.  The restriction described in this paragraph may be waived, in whole or in part, upon sixty-one (61) days prior notice from the Holder to the Company.  The Holder may decide whether to convert a Convertible Note or exercise this Warrant to achieve an actual 9.99% ownership position.
 
11.           Warrant Agent.  The Company may, by written notice to the Holder of the Warrant, appoint an agent (a “Warrant Agent”) for the purpose of issuing Common Stock (or Other Securities) on the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to Section 1, exchanging this Warrant pursuant to Section 7, and replacing this Warrant pursuant to Section 8, or any of the foregoing, and thereafter any such issuance, exchange or replacement, as the case may be, shall be made at such office by such Warrant Agent.
 
12.           Transfer on the Companys Books.  Until this Warrant is transferred on the books of the Company, the Company may treat the registered holder hereof as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.
 
13.           Notices.   All notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals, and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and, unless otherwise specified herein, shall be (i) personally served, (ii) deposited in the mail, registered or certified, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, (iii) delivered by reputable air courier service with charges prepaid, or (iv) transmitted by hand delivery, telegram, or facsimile, addressed as set forth below or to such other address as such party shall have specified most recently by written notice.  Any notice or other communication required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be deemed effective (a) upon hand delivery or delivery by facsimile, with accurate confirmation generated by the transmitting facsimile machine, at the address or number designated below (if delivered on a business day during normal business hours where such notice is to be received), or the first business day following such delivery (if delivered other than on a business day during normal business hours where such notice is to be received) or (b) on the second business day following the date of mailing by express courier service, fully prepaid, addressed to such address, or upon actual receipt of such mailing, whichever shall first occur or (c) three business days after deposited in t he mail if delivered pursuant to subsection (ii) above.  The addresses for such communications shall be: (i) if to the Company to: WES Consulting, Inc..,  2745 Bankers Industrial Drive, Atlanta, GA, 30360 (ii) if to the Holder, to Belmont Partners, LLC, 360 Main Street, Washington, VA 22747.

14.           Agreement Not a Contract of Employment or Other Relationship.  This Warrant is not a contract of employment or other relationship, and the terms that Holder acts as a consultant (or employee) or any other relationship of the Holder with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates shall not be affected in any way by this Warrant except as specifically provided herein.  The execution of this Warrant shall not be construed as conferring any legal rights upon the Holder for continuation as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company (or employee) of the Company or for the continuation of any other relationship with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, nor shall it interfere with the right of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates to treat the Holder without regard to the effect which such treatment might have upon him as a Holder.

15.           Miscellaneous.  This Warrant and any term hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement of such change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought. This Warrant shall be construed and enforced in accordance with and governed by the laws of Georgia.  Any dispute relating to this Warrant shall be adjudicated in Dekalb County in the State of Georgia.  The headings in this Warrant are for purposes of reference only, and shall not limit or otherwise affect any of the terms hereof.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision.

Page 2 of 19

 
2.2           Interest and Fees.  The Borrower shall pay Lender the interest and fees set forth on the Loan Schedule, but only to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.  Borrower shall pay principal, interest, and all other amounts payable hereunder, or under any other Loan Document, without any deduction whatsoever, including, but not limited to, any deduction for any setoff or counterclaim.  In no event shall the Revolving Interest Rate or the Default Rate of Interest exceed the highest rate permitted under any applicable law or regulation.  If any part or provision of this Agreement is in contravention of any such law or regulation, such part or provision shall be deemed amended to conform thereto, and any payment of interest and fees which individually or collectively might be deemed to be in excess of the highest rate permitted by law shall be credited against Borrower's Obligations as principal repayments of loans and advances made hereunder, to the extent of such excess.

2.3           Overlines; Overadvances.  If at any time or for any reason the outstanding amount of advances extended or issued pursuant hereto exceeds any of the dollar limitations (“Overline”) or percentage limitations (“Overadvance”) in the Loan Schedule on any day in any month, then Borrower shall, upon Lender's demand, immediately pay to Lender, in cash, the full amount of such Overline or Overadvance which, at Lender’s option, may be applied to reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Loans or any other Obligations.  Without limiting Borrower's obligation to repay to Lender on demand the amount of any Overline or Overadvance, Borrower agrees to pay Lender interest on the outstanding principal amount of any Overline or Overadvance, on demand, at the rate set forth on the Loan Schedule, whether any such Overline or Overadvance is made with or without Lender's knowledge or consent.
 
2.4.           (a)         Establishment of a Lockbox Account or Dominion Account.  Borrower shall cause all proceeds of Collateral to be remitted directly to Lender by instructing its Account Debtors to direct their payments as follows:
 
Name of Borrower
Accounting Department
505 Park Avenue, 6th Floor
New York, NY 10022
 
(b)           Lender may, at any time and from time to time, direct Borrower to collect and deliver to Lender in their original form, on the same date as the date of the actual receipt thereof, all checks, drafts, notes, acceptances, cash, wire transfers and any other evidences of payment, and/or direct Borrower to cause all proceeds of Collateral to be deposited into a lock box account or other blocked account as Lender may require or take any other action Lender may require.
 
2.5.         Clearance or Float Days.  In computing interest on the Obligations, all checks, wire transfers and other items of payment received by Lender (including proceeds of Accounts and payment of the Obligations in full) shall be deemed applied by Lender on account of the Obligations on the day such payment is received or, if received after 12noon New York, NY time, the next business day.  However, Lender shall be entitled to charge Borrower’s account five (5) business days of “clearance” or “float” at the Revolving Interest Rate set forth in the Loan Schedule, on all checks, wire transfers and other items received by Lender, regardless of whether such five (5) business days of clearance or float actually occur, and such charge shall be deemed to be the equivalent of charging five (5) business days of interest on such payments and/or collections.  The five (5) business days clearance or float charge on all payments and collections is acknowledged by the parties to constitute an integral aspect of the pricing of Lender’s financing to Borrower.  Lender shall not, however, be required to credit Borrower’s account for the amount of any item of payment which is unsatisfactory to Lender, in Lenders reasonable business discretion, and Lender may charge Borrower’s loan account for the amount of any item of payment which is returned to Lender unpaid.

2.6.         Application of Collateral and Payments.  Except as otherwise provided herein, Lender shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply or reverse and re-apply any and all payments to any portion of the Obligations in such order and manner as Lender shall determine in its reasonable business discretion.  To the extent that Borrower makes a payment or Lender receives any payment or proceeds of the Collateral for Borrower’s benefit that is subsequently invalidated, set aside or required to be repaid to any other Person, then, to such extent, the Obligations intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Lender and Lender may adjust the Loan balances, in its reasonable business discretion.
 
Page 3 of 19

 
2.7.           Monthly Accountings.  All Obligations shall be charged to an account in the Borrower's name as maintained on Lender's books.  Lender shall render to Borrower a monthly statement of its account which statement shall be deemed correct, accepted by, and conclusively binding upon Borrower as an account stated, except to the extent that Borrower shall deliver to Lender written notice of any specific exceptions thereto within twenty (20) days after the date such statement is rendered.
 
2.8.           Charges to Borrower’s Account.  All principal, interest, fees (including Documentation Fees), commissions, charges, Costs and Expenses incurred with or in respect of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any supplement or amendment hereto or thereto (all of which shall be cumulative and not exclusive) and any and all Obligations shall be charged to Borrower's account as maintained by Lender.  In furtherance thereof, Borrower hereby authorizes Lender to charge the Borrower's loan account on the first day of each month or as Lender otherwise determines: (a) all Costs and Expenses; (b) all interest; and (c) all fees and other charges provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(c)           All statements made and all unpaid balances appearing in the invoices, documents and instruments evidencing each Account are true and correct and are in all respects what they purport to be and all signatures and endorsements that appear thereon are genuine and all signatories and endorsers have full capacity to contract.  Each Account Debtor is solvent and financially able to pay in full each Account when it matures.  None of the transactions underlying or giving rise to any Account shall violate any state or federal laws or regulations, and all documents relating to the Accounts shall be legally sufficient under such laws or regulations and shall be legally enforceable in accordance with their terms and all recording, filing and other requirements of giving public notice under any applicable law have been and shall be duly complied with.

Page 10 of 19

 
6.2.           REMEDIES.

(a)            Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may, at its option and in its sole discretion and in addition to all of its other rights under the UCC, this Agreement, and the other Loan Documents, cease making advances or Loans, charge the Default Rate of Interest on all Obligations, terminate this Agreement and/or declare all of the Obligations to be immediately payable in full.  Borrower agrees that Lender shall also have all of its rights and remedies under applicable law, including without limitation, the default rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC (which includes the right to notify Account Debtors of the Borrower to make payment directly to Lender), and upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrower hereby consents to the appointment of a receiver by Lender in any action initiated by Lender pursuant to this Agreement and to the jurisdiction and venue set forth in this Agreement, and Borrower waives notice and posting of a bond in connection therewith.

(b)           Lender is authorized and empowered at any time upon the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, to compromise or extend the time for payment of any Account, for such amounts and upon such terms as Lender may, in its sole discretion determine and to accept the return of the merchandise represented by any Account, all without notice to or consent by Borrower, and without discharging or affecting Borrower's Obligations hereunder to any extent, and Borrower will, upon demand, pay to Lender the amount of any allowance given or authorized by Lender hereunder.

(c)            Lender may, at any time upon the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, take possession of the Collateral and keep it on Borrower's premises, at no cost to Lender, or remove any part of it to such other place(s) as Lender may desire, or Borrower shall, upon Lender’s demand, at Borrower's sole cost, assemble the Collateral and make it available to Lender at a place reasonably convenient to Lender.  In the event Lender seeks to take possession of all or any portion of the Collateral by judicial process (including, but not limited to, Lender obtaining an order of attachment, a temporary restraining order, a preliminary or permanent injunction or otherwise) against the Borrower or with regard to the Collateral, Borrower irrevocably waives the posting of any bond, surety or security with respect thereto which might otherwise be required, any demand for possession prior to the commencement of any suit or action to recover the Collateral, and any requirement that Lender retain possession and not dispose of any Collateral until after trial or final judgment.

(d)           Lender shall have the right in such manner and upon such terms as Lender shall determine in Lender’s reasonable business discretion, to enforce payment of any Collateral, to settle, compromise or release in whole or in part, any amounts owing on any Collateral, to prosecute any action, suit or proceeding with respect to the Collateral, to extend the time of payment of any and all Collateral, to make allowances and adjustments with respect thereto, to issue credits in Lender's or Borrower's name, to sell, assign and deliver the Collateral (or any part thereof) at public or private sale, for cash, upon credit or otherwise at Lender's sole option and discretion, and Lender may bid or become purchaser at any such sale, free from any right of redemption which is hereby expressly waived.  Borrower agrees that Lender has no obligation to preserve rights to the Collateral or marshaling any Collateral for the benefit of any Person.  Lender may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral and may specifically disclaim any warranties of title or the like without affecting the commercial reasonableness of the sale of any of the Collateral.  Lender is hereby granted a license or other right to use, without charge, Borrower's labels, patents, copyrights, name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks and advertising matter, or any similar property, in completing production, advertising or selling any Collateral and Borrower's rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to Lender's benefit.  Borrower agrees that the giving of five (5) days' notice by Lender, sent by ordinary mail, postage prepaid, to Borrower's address set forth herein, designating the place and time of any public sale or of the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition of the Collateral is to be made, shall be deemed to be reasonable notice thereof and Borrower waives any other notice with respect thereto.

(e)           The net cash proceeds, after deducting all costs and expenses of sale (including attorneys’ fees and other professional fees), resulting from the exercise of any of Lender's rights or remedies under this Agreement, the UCC or other applicable law, shall be applied by Lender to the payment of the Obligations in such order as Lender may elect, in Lender’s sole discretion.  Lender shall return any excess to Borrower and Borrower shall remain liable to Lender for any deficiency, to the fullest extent permitted by law.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if Lender enters into any credit transaction, directly or indirectly, in connection with the disposition of any Collateral, Lender shall have the option, at any time, in Lender's sole and absolute discretion, to reduce the Obligations by the amount of such credit transaction or any part thereof or to defer the reduction thereof until actual receipt by Lender of cash in connection therewith.
 
Page 11 of 19

 
(f)           The enumeration of the foregoing rights and remedies is not intended to be exclusive, and such rights and remedies are in addition to and not by way of limitation of any other rights or remedies Lender may have under the UCC or other applicable law.  Lender shall have the right, in Lender's sole and absolute discretion, to determine which rights and remedies, and in which order any of the same, are to be exercised, and to determine which Collateral is to be proceeded against and in which order, and the exercise of any right or remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any others, all of which shall be cumulative.

(g)           No act, failure or delay by Lender shall constitute a waiver of any of its rights or remedies.  No single or partial waiver by Lender of any provision of this Agreement or any supplement or amendment hereto, or breach or default thereunder, or of any right or remedy which Lender may have shall operate as a waiver of any other provision, breach, default, right or remedy or of the same provision, breach, default, right or remedy on a future occasion.

(h)           Borrower waives presentment, notice of dishonor, protest and notice of protest of all instruments included in or evidencing any of the Obligations or the Collateral and any and all notices or demands whatsoever (except as expressly provided herein).  Lender may, at all times, proceed directly against Borrower or any guarantor or endorser to enforce payment of the Obligations and shall not be required to take any action of any kind to preserve, collect or protect Lender's or Borrower's rights in the Collateral.
 
SECTION 7. 
  MISCELLANEOUS

7.1.          Term.  This Agreement shall become effective upon acceptance by Lender and shall continue in full force and effect for a term ending on the last business day of the month, one year from the date hereof (the "Renewal Date") and shall automatically renew from year to year thereafter until terminated pursuant to the terms hereof.  In addition to Lender's right to declare this Agreement immediately terminated at any time upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may terminate this Agreement on the Renewal Date or on the anniversary of the Renewal Date in any year by giving Borrower at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of such termination by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested.  Borrower may terminate this Agreement on the Renewal Date or on the anniversary of the Renewal Date in any year by giving Lender at least ninety (90) days prior written notice of such termination by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested.  No termination of this Agreement, however, shall relieve or discharge Borrower of Borrower's duties, obligations and covenants hereunder until all Obligations have been paid in full and Lender's continuing security interest in and to the Collateral shall remain in effect until all such Obligations have been fully discharged.

7.2.          Early Termination Fee.  If Lender terminates this Agreement upon the occurrence of an Event of Default or if Borrower terminates this Agreement as to future transactions other than on the Renewal Date or any anniversary of the Renewal Date, in view of the impracticality and extreme difficulty in ascertaining Lender's actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of Lender's lost profits as a result thereof, Borrower hereby agrees that it shall immediately pay to Lender by wire transfer, certified check or bank cashier's check, Borrower's entire Obligations owing thereunder, plus liquidated damages of an amount equal to the total of the Minimum Interest Charges for the number of months remaining until the Renewal Date or the next anniversary thereof as provided for in this Agreement.  Prior to its actual receipt of payment as aforesaid, Lender shall be free to exercise, without limitation, all of its right under this Agreement or under any other agreement it may then have with Borrower.  Borrower's default of any provision under this Agreement may be considered and construed at the sole option of Lender, as a termination of this Agreement by Borrower.  The liquidated damages provided for in this Section shall be deemed included in the Obligations and shall be presumed to be the amount of damages sustained by Lender due to the Borrower's early termination and Borrower agrees that such damages are reasonable and appropriate under the circumstances currently existing.

7.3.          One General Obligation; Cross Collateral.  All Loans and advances by Lender to Borrower under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and under all other agreements, present and future, between Lender and Borrower constitute one loan, and all indebtedness and obligations of Borrower to Lender under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and under all other agreements, present and future, between Lender and Borrower, constitute one general obligation secured by the Collateral and security held and to be held by Lender hereunder and by virtue of all other agreements between Borrower (and all guarantors) and Lender now and hereafter existing.  It is distinctly understood and agreed that all of the rights of Lender contained in this Agreement shall likewise apply insofar as applicable to any modification of or supplement to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and to any other agreements, present and future, between Lender and Borrower.

7.4.          Binding on Successor and Assigns; Severability.  All terms, conditions, promises, covenants, provisions and warranties shall inure to the benefit of and bind Lender’s and Borrower's respective representatives, successors and assigns.  If any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited or invalid under applicable law, it shall be ineffective only to such extent, without invalidating the remainder of this Agreement.

7.5.          Amendments; Assignments.  This Agreement may not be modified, altered or amended, except by an agreement in writing signed by Borrower and Lender, which requirement shall not be modified by oral agreement or by course of conduct.  Borrower may not sell, assign or transfer any interest in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any portion thereof, including, without limitation, any of Borrower's rights, title, interests, remedies, powers and duties hereunder or thereunder.  Borrower hereby consents to Lender’s participation, sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition, at any time or times hereafter, of this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents, or of any portion hereof or thereof, including, without limitation, Lender’s rights, title, interests, remedies, powers and duties hereunder or thereunder.  In connection therewith, Lender may disclose all documents and information which Lender now or hereafter may have relating to Borrower or Borrower's business.  To the extent that Lender assigns its rights and obligations hereunder to a third party, Lender shall thereafter be released from such assigned obligations to Borrower and such assignment shall effect a novation between Borrower and such third party.

7.6.          Integration; Survival.  This Agreement, together with the Loan Schedule (which is a part hereof) and the other Loan Documents, reflect the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby.  All of the representations and warranties of Borrower contained in this Agreement shall survive the execution, delivery and acceptance of this Agreement by the parties.  No termination of this Agreement (or of any guaranty) of the Obligations shall affect or impair the powers, obligations, duties, rights, representations, warranties or liabilities of the parties hereto and all shall survive such termination.

7.7.          Evidence of Obligations.  Each Obligation may, in Lender’s discretion, be evidenced by notes or other instruments issued or made by Borrower to Lender.  If not so evidenced, such Obligation shall be evidenced solely by entries upon Lender’s books and records.

7.8.          Loan Requests.  Each oral or written request for an advance by any Person who purports to be any employee, officer or authorized agent of Borrower shall be made to Lender on or prior to 11:00 a.m., NY time, on the business day on which the proceeds thereof are requested to be paid to Borrower and shall be conclusively presumed to be made by a Person authorized by Borrower to do so and the crediting of a loan to Borrower's operating account shall conclusively establish Borrower's obligation to repay such loan. Unless and until Borrower otherwise directs Lender in writing, all loans shall be wired to Borrower's operating account set forth on the Loan Schedule.

7.9          Brokerage Fees.  Borrower represents and warrants to Lender that, with respect to the financing transaction herein contemplated, no Person is entitled to any brokerage fee or other commission and Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold Lender harmless against any and all such claims.

7.10        Application of Insurance Proceeds.  The net proceeds of any casualty insurance insuring the Collateral, after deducting all costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) of collection, shall be applied, at Lender’s option, either toward replacing or restoring the Collateral, in a manner and on terms satisfactory to Lender, or toward payment of the Obligations.  Any proceeds applied to the payment of Obligations shall be applied in such manner as Lender may elect.  In no event shall such application relieve Borrower from payment in full of all installments of principal and interest which thereafter become due in the order of maturity thereof or with respect to the payment of fees and costs.

7.11.        Disbursing Agent.  The Borrowers hereby appoint ONE UP INNOVATIONS, INC. as the “Disbursing Agent” to the Borrowers as it is in the best interest and convenience of the Borrowers that all Loans and advances made by Lender pursuant to this Agreement be made only to the Disbursing Agent rather than to each of the Borrowers individually.  Accordingly, the Disbursing Agent shall be the sole entity entitled to receive the funds advanced by Lender under this Agreement and the Disbursing Agent shall make disbursements to the Borrowers as reasonably requested by each Borrower to conduct its respective business.  Moreover, the Disbursing Agent and each Borrower agrees and authorizes Disbursing Agent and Lender to receive all collections and other proceeds into the lockbox or other account assigned to and/or controlled by Lender in accordance with Section 5.1 of this Agreement.  All of the proceeds received into the lockbox will be credited by Lender to the Disbursing Agent’s account and the Disbursing Agent shall have the sole authority to further credit any such collections to each Borrower, individually.  Each Borrower hereby irrevocably waives any claim it may have against Lender and hereby indemnifies and holds Lender harmless from and against all damages, losses, claims, demands, liabilities, obligations, actions and causes of action whatsoever which such Borrower may have against Lender which may arise as a result of advances being made by Lender solely to the Disbursing Agent and/or collections being credited by Lender solely the Disbursing Agent’s account with Lender.]

7.12.        Notices, Correspondence.  All notices, requests, demands and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and will be personally served, telecopied or sent by overnight courier service or United States mail and will be deemed to have been given: (i) if delivered in person, when delivered; (ii) if delivered by telecopy, on the date of transmission if transmitted on a business day before 4:00 p.m. New York time or, if not, on the next succeeding business day; (iii) if delivered by overnight courier, the following business day after depositing with such courier, properly addressed; or (iv) if by U.S. Mail, four (4) business days after depositing in the United States mail, with postage prepaid and properly addressed.  All notices, requests and demands are to be given or made to the respective parties at the addresses set forth herein or at such other addresses as either party may designate in writing by notice in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph.  All notices to Lender must be addressed to the attention of:  Portfolio Manager.

7.13.        Governing Law.  This Agreement and all transactions hereunder are deemed to be consummated in the State of New York and shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the substantive and procedural laws of the State of New York (without regard to any choice of law rules).  If any part or provision of this Agreement shall be determined to be invalid or in contravention of any applicable law or regulation of the controlling jurisdiction, such part or provision shall be severed without affecting the validity of any other part or provision of this Agreement.

7.13.        JURY WAIVER.  BORROWER AND LENDER EACH HEREBY WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND ANY SUPPLEMENT OR AMENDMENT HERETO OR THERETO OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION BETWEEN THE PARTIES.  BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ALL OF ITS RIGHTS OF SETOFF AND RIGHTS TO INTERPOSE ANY DEFENSES AND/OR COUNTERCLAIMS IN THE EVENT OF ANY LITIGATION WITH RESPECT TO ANY MATTER CONNECTED WITH THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND ANY SUPPLEMENT OR AMENDMENT HERETO OR THERETO OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION BETWEEN THE PARTIES.  BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS AND SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY CHOICE OF LAW RULES) OR THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND ANY SUPPLEMENT OR AMENDMENT HERETO OR THERETO OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION BETWEEN THE PARTIES.  BORROWER AGREES THAT ANY ACTION BROUGHT BY IT AGAINST LENDER WHETHER WITH REGARD TO THIS AGREEMENT OR OTHERWISE SHALL BE SUBJECT TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY CHOICE OF LAW RULES), COUNTY OF NEW YORK OR THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK.

7.14.        Service.  In any litigation brought by Lender, Borrower waives personal service of any summons, complaint or other process and agrees that service thereof may be made by certified or registered mail directed to Borrower at Borrower's address set forth below and service so made shall be complete two (2) days after the same shall have been posted.  Within twenty (20) days after such mailing, Borrower shall appear and answer such summons, complaint or other process, failing which Borrower shall be deemed in default and judgment may be entered by Lender against Borrower for the amount of the claim and for any other relief requested therein.

7.15.        Lien Termination.  In recognition of Lender’s right to have all of its attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement secured by the Collateral, notwithstanding the payment in full of the Obligations, Lender shall not be required to execute or record any terminations or satisfactions of any of its liens on the Collateral unless and until Borrower (and all Guarantors) have executed and delivered to Lender general releases of all claims, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender in Lender’s sole discretion.

LOAN SCHEDULE

Borrower: 
ONE UP INNOVATIONS, INC.
FOAM LABS, INC.
2745 Bankers Industrial Drive
Atlanta, GA  30360
 
This Loan Schedule forms an integral part of the Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) between the above Borrower and ENTREPRENEUR GROWTH CAPITAL, LLC dated the above date, and all references herein and therein to “this Agreement” shall be deemed to refer to said Agreement and this Loan Schedule.
 

LINE OF CREDIT:

$250,000.00
 

LOANS:

Revolving Credit Loans: Lender shall from time to time, in its reasonable business discretion, make loans, advances and other financial accommodations to or for the benefit of Borrower of up to 80% of the Net Amount of Eligible Accounts (or such greater or lesser percentage thereof as Lender shall, in its reasonable business discretion, determine), less any Loan Reserves (the “Revolving Credit Loans”).

Borrower may request Revolving Credit Loans from time to time but not more frequently than twice a week unless Lender consents.  Revolving Credit Loans made to Borrower more frequently than twice per week may be subject to additional administrative surcharges and/or increased wire transfer fees.


INTEREST AND FEES:

Revolving Interest Rate.  Borrower shall pay Lender interest on the daily outstanding balance of Borrower's Revolving Credit Loans at the per annum rate equal to the highest prime rate in effect during each month as generally reported by Citibank, N.A. (the "Prime Rate") plus 6% (the “Revolving Interest Rate”), but the Revolving Interest Rate shall never be more than 24% per annum or the maximum permitted by law.  The interest rate chargeable hereunder in respect of the Revolving Credit Loans shall be increased or decreased, as the case may be, without notice or demand of any kind, upon the announcement of any change in the Prime Rate.  Interest charges and all other fees and charges herein shall be calculated based on a three hundred sixty (360) day year and actual number of days elapsed and shall be charged to Borrower on all Obligations, in arrears, on the first day of each calendar month.  All interest and fees charged or chargeable to Borrower shall be deemed as an additional advance and shall become part of the Obligations.

Overline and Overadvance Interest.   In the event any amount to be advanced or charged to the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents results in an Overline or Overadvance on any day in any month, Borrower will be charged a one percent (1%) fee on the amount of any said Overline or Overadvance, whether made with or without Lender’s knowledge or consent (the “Overadvance Fee”).  The Overadvance Fee, if applicable, would be charged on the first day of the month, calculated on the highest amount of any Overadvance that shall have occurred during the immediately preceding month.  The fees charged on the amount of any Overline or Overadvance shall not be used in calculating the Minimum Interest Charge.
 
Page 16 of 19

 
Default Rate of Interest. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Borrower shall pay Lender interest on the daily outstanding balance of the Obligations at a rate that is ten percentage points above the Revolving Interest Rate (the “Default Rate of Interest”), but the Default Rate of Interest shall never be more than 24% per annum or the maximum permitted by law.

Minimum Interest Charge.  With respect to each calendar month or portion thereof during the term of this Agreement (excluding the calendar month in which this Agreement is executed for which a pro-rated share shall be charged, if applicable), Borrower shall also pay Lender, on the first day of the next month, as a minimum charge, the amount by which accrued interest pursuant to the Revolving Interest Rate section above for such month or portion thereof is less than $1,500.00 (the "Minimum Interest Charge").  Notwithstanding the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder or termination of this Agreement by Lender as a result thereof, the Minimum Interest Charge shall be paid by Borrower for the unexpired portion of the initial term or any renewal term of this Agreement.

Collateral Monitoring Fee.  Borrower shall pay Lender a monthly collateral monitoring fee (the “Collateral Monitoring Fee”) in an amount equal to one quarter of one percent (0.25%) of the Line of Credit.  The Collateral Monitoring Fee shall be charged to Borrower's loan account, in arrears, on the first day of each month.

Facility Fee.  Borrower shall pay Lender an annual fee (the “Facility Fee”) in an amount equal to two (2%) percent of the Line of Credit.  The Facility Fee shall be deemed fully earned on the date such payment is due and is payable upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement and upon each annual anniversary date of this Agreement until such time as this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with its terms.  In the event the Line of Credit is increased after Borrower paid the annual Facility Fee but prior to any annual anniversary date of this Agreement, the Facility Fee shall also be paid on such increase in the Line of Credit.  If applicable, the initial Facility Fee payment shall include the pro-rata amount for the final, partial month of the first contract year, calculated by multiplying the Facility Fee percent by the Line of Credit, dividing by 360 and multiplied by the number of days from the date that is one year from the date of this Agreement to the last day of the month that is one year from the date of this Agreement..

Examination Fee.  Borrower agrees to pay to Lender an examination fee in the amount of $1,000.00 per person per day in connection with each audit or field examination of Borrower performed by Lender prior to or after the date hereof (including the initial examination), plus all costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith (the “Examination Fee”), all of which shall be deemed part of the Obligations.  Without limiting Lender’s rights hereunder and under the Loan Agreement, Lender agrees, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred, to limit ordinary course field examinations to no more than two (2) per contract year.

Documentation Fee.  Borrower shall pay Lender, on the Closing Date, a documentation fee (“the “Documentation Fee”) as shall be reasonably determined by Lender based upon the time expended in conducting due diligence, reviewing documents and negotiating and preparing this Agreement and the ancillary documents, in addition to all out of pocket expenses related to the initial audit and field examination and public records searches and filings.  The documentation fee and all other Costs and Expenses related to the closing of this Agreement shall deducted from any deposits remitted by Borrower to Lender, then, to the extent required, be charged to Borrower’s loan account as provided in Section 2.8. Without Limiting Lender’s rights hereunder and under the Loan Agreement, Lender agrees that the Costs and Expenses related to the initial closing only, shall not exceed $5,000.00.

Wire Transfer and Miscellaneous Fees.  Borrower shall pay Lender service fees for (a) electronic transfers of money in the amount of $50.00 per federal wire transfer and $10.00 per automated clearinghouse (“ACH”) transfer; (b) $10.00 for each advance in the form of a check deposited into Borrower's bank account by Lender; (c) $5.00 for each internal transfer made by Lender; (d) for disbursements made to third parties, an amount equal to the greater of 15% of the amount of each check issued to third parties or $50.00, (e) service fees of $50.00 each shall be made for processing bank returned items, each issuance of a check or wire transfer in excess of two per week, each request for a money transfer prior to 11am, and advances of less than $5,000.00, and (f) Borrower shall pay Lender for all postage and telephone charges, as well as cents for all copies made by Lender for or on behalf of Borrower.

CLOSING CONDITIONS:


(1)         Fees.  Borrower shall have paid all fees payable by it on the Closing Date pursuant to this Agreement, including but not limited to, Lender’s legal and documentation fees.

(2)         No Material Adverse Changes.  Prior to the Closing Date, there shall have occurred no material adverse change in the financial condition of Borrower, or in the condition of the assets of Borrower, from that shown on the most recent financial statements for Borrower delivered to Lender.  At the closing, Borrower shall deliver to Lender an officer’s certification confirming that Borrower is unaware of the existence of any such material adverse change in Borrower’s financial condition.

(3)         Material Agreements.  Lender shall have received, reviewed and approved all material agreements to which Borrower shall be a party.

(4)         Other Matters.  All other documents and legal matters in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall have been delivered, executed and recorded and shall be in form and substance satisfactory to Lender and its counsel.
