PORTABLES UNLIMITED, LLC AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2010 & 2009

1.       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Description of Business and Credit Risk

Portables Unlimited, LLC ("Portables") was formed on August 20, 2008 and commenced operations on January 1, 2009, when the T-Mobile master distributor agreements of its two members were combined and assigned to Portables. The Company also purchased inventory of $4,187,717, fixed assets of $1,697,980 and other intangible assets consisting of customer lists and lease acquisition costs of $177,582 from its members on January 1, 2009. Portables operates as an authorized master distributor for T-Mobile. Substantially all of Portables' revenue is derived from the wholesale distribution of T-Mobile wireless communication services and equipment. The agreement with T-Mobile is for three years through January 1, 2012.

In addition to the wholesale distribution business, Portables also owned and operated several retail stores and kiosks which sold wireless communication equipment and services, through its wholly owned subsidiaries Wireless Champs Northeast, LLC, Wireless Champs West, LLC, Wireless Champs South, LLC and Wireless Champs Central, LLC. In 2010, approximately 84% of the retail locations were closed. As discussed in Note 7, the Company has operating agreements in place with independent third parties for the remaining retail locations.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Portables Unlimited, LLC and its subsidiaries (the "Company"). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.

Exclusion of Related Party Lessor from Consolidation

As described in Note 6, the Company, commencing in January 2009, subleases its principal facility from one of its members. The member began leasing the facility in December 2005 from a related party, AUM Realty, LLC ("AUM"). The Company's management has assessed whether AUM should be consolidated pursuant to FASB ASC 810 Consolidations. ASC 810 is not a "rules based" standard and thereby includes limited circumstances under which it can be conclusively determined whether an entity should be consolidated. Management believes that AUM is not a variable interest entity ("VIE") as defined in ASC 810 because AUM was adequately capitalized. Equity contributions from AUM's owners exceeded 20% of the acquisition costs of the property. Management believes that this is, according to ASC 810 criteria, "sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support." The Company and the owners of AUM provided guarantees of AUM's Rockland County Industrial Development Agency ("IDA") supported bank loan. Such a guarantee constitutes a form of "subordinated financial support," which provides a contrary indication to management's assessment that AUM is not a VIE. Management believes, however, that the guarantees were not necessary for AUM to finance its activities, and its equity capital was sufficient to support its activities if necessary, but the guarantees were only required under IDA rules in order to obtain the reduced financing costs of the IDA support. Management believes that the same is true at January 1, 2010 and 2009 and at December 31, 2010 and 2009.

- 5 -


Exclusion of Related Party Lessor from Consolidation (Continued)

Based on this assessment, management believes that AUM is not a VIE and therefore is not consolidated as a component of these consolidated financial statements. If the matter were to be assessed differently, these consolidated financial statements would have included AUM's assets (principally land and building), liabilities (principally loan payable) and expenses, with the excess of AUM's assets over liabilities shown as a "noncontrolling interest" (i.e., the net assets belonging to the related parties that own AUM).

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from the sale of equipment is recognized upon shipment or when purchased at Company retail locations. Commission income is recognized upon activation of wireless communication services with T-Mobile.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of less than three months to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts for all receivables not expected to be collected. The Company generally does not require deposits. The Company evaluates the collectibility of its accounts receivable based on a combination of factors. In circumstances when the Company is aware of a specific customer's inability to meet its financial obligations (e.g., termination of service), the Company records a specific reserve for bad debts against amounts due. For all other instances, the Company recognizes reserves based on historical experience and review of the individual accounts outstanding.

Inventories

Inventory consists of cell phones and related accessories and is stated at lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or market.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates

Depreciation and Amortization

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets indicated in Note 3. Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed by the straight-line method over the lease terms, as indicated in Note 3, unless the estimated useful life is shorter.

Income Taxes

The Company is treated as a partnership for federal and state income tax purposes. Members are taxed individually on their share of partnership earnings.

- 6 -


The Company follows FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes, which provide standards for establishing and classifying any tax provisions for uncertain tax positions and recognizing any interest and penalties. The Company's policy is to recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. The Company is subject to audit by federal, state and local income tax authorities for all periods since its inception in 2008.

Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated, for potential recognition and disclosure, events subsequent to the date of the balance sheet through August 25, 2011, the date the financial statements were available to be issued. Management has subsequently evaluated, for potential disclosure, events subsequent to the date of the balance sheet through December 28, 2011.

2.       COMMISSIONS RECEIVABLE AND PAYABLE

Commissions receivable represents amounts due from T-Mobile for activations of service contracts for customers through the sub-dealers serviced by the Company. Commission payable represents the portion of commissions due to the sub-dealers for these activations, net of amounts due from sub-dealers for equipment purchases. The agreements with the sub-dealers contain the right to offset.

10.       DUE FROM MEMBERS

Due from members is payable on demand and is non interest bearing. It has been classified as a contra-equity account rather than as an asset as its collectibility is dependent on the future cash flow of the Company to be sufficient to pay distributions to the members.

The Company has a qualified 401(k) plan covering all eligible employees. The plan provides for contributions by the Company in such amounts as decided by management. The Company has not made contributions to the plan for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.

In October, 2011 one of the two members of the Company sold their 50% interest to another entity. A further equity investment of $750,000 was to be made to bring the entity's aggregate ownership to 55% of the Company. As of December 28, 2011, the additional investment has not been made.

In October, 2011 the note payable to T-Mobile was amended and the then principal balance of $4,757,187 was due in installments of $2,500,000 in November and $1,400,000 in December. These amounts were paid by the purchasing entity as part of their obligations under the agreement to the former member. The final amount due to T-Mobile of $857,187 was forgiven by them since the two payments due in November and December were made timely. A $500,000 letter of credit in the name of the Company to secure obligations to T-Mobile to be arranged by the purchasing entity has not occurred as of December 28, 2011.
