The Company lends money through notes receivable on an ongoing basis to various companies related by common control. The notes were due to be repaid to the Company at various dates through December 2013. The Company recognizes no interest income on the notes. The Company has established a reserve for any loans not repaid within one year.

At December 31, 2013, the Company had $27,100 in notes receivable outstanding with a corresponding note reserve of $27,100.

At June 30, 2014, all these notes had been sold or repaid as follows:

There were three convertible promissory notes made to Centennial Growth Equities in 2007 and 2008 for a total of $25,100, which was for funds loaned to Centennial Growth Equities and was used for working capital. These notes were not arms-length transactions and were related party transactions as Mr. Ray, the president of ABS, was also a principal of Centennial Growth Equities at the time the transactions were made.

· A note from Centennial Growth Equities, Inc. a company controlled by Mr. Ray, an officer and director at the time the note was made, dated January 10, 2007 in the amount of $17,000, for money that ABS loaned to Centennial Growth Equities in 2006. This note matured on December 31, 2008 and was renewed through December 31, 2013. The note has been accruing interest as of January 1, 2011 at an annual interest of 4% per annum.

During the three months ended March 31, 2014 the Company exercised its right to convert the three notes receivable from Centennial Growth Equities, Inc. into 2,500,000 shares of its common stock. This stock was then sold to a related party for $6,000. As these notes receivable had been fully provided against in prior periods the Company recognized a gain of $6,000 on the sale. As the sale was to a related party, the gain on sale has been recognized in additional paid in capital.

· A note from Original Source Music, Inc., an unaffiliated entity, dated June 1, 2010 in the amount of $2,000 for money loaned to Original Source Music by ABS in 2010. This amount was used as working capital. The note matured on June 28, 2013.

During the three months ended March 31, 2014 the Company received payment from Original Source Music, Inc. in the amount of $2,000 in complete satisfaction of the obligation. As this note receivable had been provided against in full in previous periods, we recognized a gain of $2,000 on repayment of this note receivable.
