We design, market, and distribute electronic cigarettes, vaporizers, e-liquids and accessories under the Krave^®, Fifty-One^® (also known as Smoke 51), VaporX^®, Hookah Stix^®, Alternacig^®, EZ Smoker^®, Green Puffer^®, Americig^®, Fumaré™ and Smoke Star^® brands. We also design and develop private label brands for our distribution customers. Third party manufacturers manufacture our products to meet our design specifications. We market our electronic cigarettes as an alternative to traditional tobacco cigarettes.

“Electronic cigarettes” or “e-cigarettes” and “vaporizers” are battery-powered products that enable users to inhale nicotine vapor without smoke, tar, ash, or carbon monoxide. Electronic cigarettes look like traditional cigarettes and, regardless of their construction are comprised of three functional components:

When a user draws air through the electronic cigarette and or vaporizer, the air flow is detected by a sensor, which activates a heating element that vaporizes the solution stored in the mouthpiece/cartridge, the solution is then vaporized and it is this vapor that is inhaled by the user. The cartridge contains either a nicotine solution or a nicotine free solution, either of which may be flavored.

We offer disposable electronic cigarettes in multiple sizes, puff counts, styles, flavors and nicotine strengths; rechargeable electronic cigarettes that use replaceable cartridges (also known as “atomizers or cartomizers”); and rechargeable vaporizers for use with either electronic cigarette solution (“e-liquid”) or dry herbs or leaf.

Disposable electronic cigarettes feature a one-piece construction that houses all the components and is utilized until the nicotine or nicotine free solution is depleted.

Rechargeable electronic cigarettes feature a rechargeable battery and replaceable cartridge (also known as a “atomizer or cartomizer”). The atomizers or cartomizers are changed when the solution is depleted from use.

Vaporizers feature a tank or chamber, a heating element and a battery. The vaporizer user fills the tank with e-liquid or the chamber with dry herb or leaf. The vaporizer battery can be recharged and the tank and chamber can be refilled.

The electronic cigarette solution or e-liquid, is the chemical means through which electronic cigarettes and vaporizers, respectively, deliver nicotine, simulate the taste of tobacco and/or other flavors in addition to emulating the act of smoking by means of the electronic cigarettes “smoke like” discharge of vapor. We offer the electronic cigarette solutions, in different flavors and various nicotine strengths, in replaceable cartridges for our rechargeable e-cigarettes and in bottles for use in our vaporizers.

Our electronic cigarette solution and e-liquid is primarily made up of propylene glycol. Propylene glycol is a small hydroxy-substituted hydrocarbon with the chemical formula C3H8O2. Propylene glycol is on the list of chemicals that the FDA generally regards as safe. It is used in foods, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and tobacco products.

We have begun developing a portfolio of flavor profiles for our array of electronic cigarette models and brands. Our management believes that our flavor profiles will serve to differentiate our products from other electronic cigarette brands. Our management intends to create brand recognition and loyalty based on the flavor profiles we develop and market. Moreover, in addition to serving to establish brand identity for our products based on taste, our management intends to manage the quality of our products and position us to comply with any government regulations and good manufacturing practices that may be issued for electronic cigarette products in the future. Also, by developing proprietary formulas, our management believes that we will be able to better control our supply chain and combat any future attempts to counterfeit our products. We cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to realize these goals.

We sell our electronic cigarettes, vaporizers and e-liquids under several different brands, including Krave^®, Fifty-One^® (also known as Smoke 51), VaporX^®, Stix^®, Alternacig^®, EZ Smoker^®, Green Puffer^®, Americig^®, Fumaré™ and Smoke Star^® brands. We also design and develop private label brands for our distribution customers. Our in-house engineering and graphic design teams work to provide aesthetically pleasing, technologically advanced affordable e-cigarette options. We have developed and trademarked or are preparing to commercialize additional brands which we currently and will market to new customers and demographics.

We offer a large variety of products in multiple sizes, puff counts, flavors and nicotine strengths and at various prices. The following table is illustrative.

We have developed and trademarked or are preparing to commercialize additional products. We include product development expenses as part of our operating expenses. Product development expenses for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were approximately $174,000 and $159,000, respectively.

We are developing new flavor profiles that are distinct to our brands. We believe that as the electronic cigarette industry matures, users of electronic cigarettes will develop, if they have not already, preferences for the product based not only on their quality, ability to successfully deliver nicotine, their battery capacity, smoke volume they generate, but on taste and flavor, like smokers do with their preferred brand of conventional tobacco cigarettes.

We have a patent pending for a soft-tip electronic cigarette filter, which more closely resemble the tactile experience of a traditional tobacco cigarette in a user’s mouth. There is no assurance that we will be awarded a patent for this filter. To date electronic cigarettes have been made of metal and hard plastic and do not offer users the same malleable feel as the cellulose filters of conventional tobacco cigarettes.

We hold rights to a patent pending for the first electronic cigarette that can be re-charged by shaking the product. This Dynamo charging technology may eventually allow for continued use without having to recharge the electronic cigarette by plugging it into an electrical outlet. There is no assurance that a patent will be awarded for this technology.

We have a patent pending for a universal fit mouthpiece that can be used in conjunction with the battery section of most other popular electronic cigarette brands, allowing users of competing electronic cigarette products an easy way to try and transition to our cartridges. There is no assurance that a patent will be awarded for this technology.

We have a patent pending on a new configuration for the airflow sensors currently used in electronic cigarettes. The new configuration will allow the battery to be sealed to enhance the reliability and performance of the electronic cigarette. There is no assurance that we will be awarded a patent for this configuration.

We have a patent pending for a biometric fingerprint lock sensor that can be used in vaporizers. The biometric fingerprint lock sensor will allow the owner of the vaporizer to keep the device locked and turned off unless the authorized user unlocks the device via fingerprint scan, protecting the device from use by another individual. This technology may be used to protect against minors being able to turn on the device and will also deem the devices unusable in the event the device is lost or stolen. There is no assurance that we will be awarded a patent for this technology.

Our electronic cigarettes are available in kits that contain everything a user needs to begin enjoying their “vaping” experience. In addition to kits we sell replacement parts including batteries, refill cartridges or cartomizers that contain the liquid solution, atomizers, tanks and e-liquids. Our refill cartridges and e-liquids are available in various assorted flavors and nicotine levels (including cartridges without nicotine). In addition to our electronic cigarette and vaporizer products we sell an assortment of accessories, including various types of chargers including USB, car and home: carrying cases and lanyards.

We market our electronic cigarettes and vaporizers as an alternative to traditional tobacco cigarettes. We offer our products in multiple nicotine strengths, flavors and puff counts. Because electronic cigarettes offer a “smoking” experience without the burning of tobacco leaf, electronic cigarettes offer users the ability to satisfy their nicotine cravings without smoke, tar, ash or carbon monoxide. In many cases electronic cigarettes may be used where tobacco-burning cigarettes may not. Electronic cigarettes may be used in some instances where for regulatory or safety reasons tobacco burning cigarettes may not be used. However, certain states, cities, businesses, providers of transportation and public venues in the U.S. have already banned the use of electronic cigarettes, while others are considering banning the use of electronic cigarettes. We cannot provide any assurances that the use of electronic cigarettes will not be banned anywhere traditional tobacco burning cigarette use is banned.

According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in 2010, an estimated 45.3 million people, or 19.3% of adults, in the United States smoke cigarettes. According to the Tobacco Vapor Electronic Cigarette Association, an industry trade group, more than 3.5 million people currently use electronic cigarettes in the United States. In 2011, about 21% of adults who smoke traditional tobacco cigarettes had used electronic cigarettes, up from about 10% in 2010, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Annual sales of electronic cigarettes in the United States are estimated to increase to $1 billion in 2013 from $500 million in 2012. Annual sales of traditional tobacco cigarettes, according to industry estimates, were $80 billion in 2012.

Currently, we advertise our products primarily through our direct television marketing campaign, on the Internet, through trade magazine ads and through point of sale materials and displays at retail locations. We also attempt to build brand awareness through innovative social media marketing activities, price promotions, in-store and on-premise promotions, slotting fees (i.e., fees payable based on the number of stores at which our products are carried and sold), public relations and trade show participation. Our advertising expense as a percentage of sales for the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 has been approximately 8.8% and 16.7%, respectively. We intend to strategically expand our advertising activities in 2014 and also increase our public relations campaigns to gain editorial coverage for our brands. Some of our competitors promote their brands through print media and television commercials, and through celebrity endorsements, and have substantial resources to devote to such efforts. We believe that our and our competitors’ efforts have helped increase our sales, our product acceptance and general industry awareness.

We offer our electronic cigarettes and vaporizers and related products through our online stores, to retail channels through our direct sales force, and through third party wholesalers, retailers and value-added resellers. Retailers of our products include small-box discount retailers, big-box retailers, gas stations, drug stores, convenience stores, tobacco shops and kiosk locations in shopping malls throughout the United States. We also offer our electronic cigarettes and related products through our direct response television marketing efforts. We do not currently offer our vaporizers through our director response television marketing efforts, though we may do so in the future.

When first introduced to the U.S. market, electronic cigarettes were predominantly sold online. In the past year brick and mortar sales of electronic cigarettes have eclipsed the on-line sales volumes in the U.S. market. Tobacco products, most notably cigarettes are currently sold in approximately 400,000 retail locations. We believe that future growth of electronic cigarettes is dependent on higher volume, lower margin sales channels, like the broad based distribution network through which cigarettes are sold. Thus, we are focusing on growing our retail distribution reach by entering into distribution agreements with large and established value added resellers and by focusing our sales efforts on regional and national retail chains. We currently have established relationships with several large retailers and national chains and in connection therewith we have agreed to pay slotting fees based on the number of stores our products will be carried in. These existing relationships are “at-will” and one of them is also “pay on scan” meaning that either party may terminate the relationship for any reason or no reason at all and, as to the “pay on scan” relationship, we only receive payment from the retailer after our product has been scanned for final sale by the retailer to its customer. We believe that these higher volume lower margin opportunities are critical towards broadening the reach and appeal of electronic cigarettes and we believe that as electronic cigarettes become more widely known and available, the market for our products will grow.

Under our private label production and supply agreement with Spike Marks Inc./Casa Cubana, we have agreed to produce and supply to this customer such quantities of our electronic cigarettes bearing the customer’s trademark and other brand attributes as the customer orders for exclusive resale by the customer within the country of Canada.

The customer’s right to be the exclusive reseller of our products in Canada is conditioned upon the customer satisfying specified minimum annual and quarterly performance requirements. For the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, we had sales for distribution in Canada of $3,847,310 and $4,301,339, respectively.

Our private label production and supply agreement with this customer has a 3-year term that expires in December 2014, subject to automatic renewal for one additional 3-year term if the customer has satisfied certain specified minimum performance requirements. Either party may terminate the agreement early upon the other party’s bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution or material breach of its obligations subject to a 30-day cure period.

Our business strategy leverages our ability to design market and develop multiple e-cigarette brands and to bring those brands to market through our multiple distribution channels.

We believe we were among the first distributors of electronic cigarettes in the U.S. Thus, we believe that our reputation and our experience in the electronic cigarette industry, both from a development, customer service and production perspective give us an advantage in attracting customers, specifically re-sellers who require ongoing support, reliable and consistent supply chains and mechanisms in place for supporting broad based distributors and big box retailers.

Moreover, we believe that our history with our suppliers, including the volume of products we source, gives us an advantage over other market participants as it relates to favorable pricing, priority as to inventory supply and delivery and first access to new products, including first access to next generation electronic cigarette products and technology.

We have targeted major retail chains to build brand awareness for our products. We sell products to major retail chains and in connection therewith we have agreed to pay slotting fees based on the number of stores at which our products will be carried and sold. We have submitted additional proposals to other additional large retail chains and anticipate that slotting fees and credit terms will be a requirement with each such customer.

We currently sell electronic cigarettes under several brands. Through our multi-brand strategy we develop products, packaging, accessories and electronic cigarette models that appeal to multiple demographic segments. Our electronic cigarettes are available in various puff counts, flavors and nicotine levels, in addition to the traditional look and feel, which resemble traditional tobacco cigarettes. Our brand names and packaging are also developed to appeal to different customers.

In addition to our current product offering, we are developing new flavor profiles that are distinct and unique to our brands. We believe that as the electronic cigarette industry matures, users of electronic cigarettes will develop, if they have not already, preferences for our products based not only on their quality, ability to successfully deliver nicotine, their battery capacity, vapor volume they generate, but on taste and flavor, like smokers do with their preferred brand of conventional tobacco cigarettes. We also seek to differentiate our products through our own product development and product engineering efforts. We currently have a patent pending for a soft-tip electronic cigarette filter, which more closely resembles the tactile experience of a conventional tobacco cigarette in a user’s mouth. To date electronic cigarettes have been made of metal and hard plastic and do not offer users the same malleable feel as the cellulose filters of conventional tobacco cigarettes. We also have patent rights to the first electronic cigarette that can be re-charged by shaking the product, this Dynamo charging technology may eventually allow for continued use without having to recharge the electronic cigarette by plugging it into an electrical outlet.

Our goal is to achieve a position of sustainable leadership in the electronic cigarette industry. Our strategy consists of the following key elements:

On October 22, 2013, we entered into a purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with various institutional and individual accredited investors and certain of our officers and directors to raise gross proceeds of $10 million in a Private Placement of 3,333,338 shares of our common stock at a per share price of $3.00 (the “Private Placement”).

On October 29, 2013, we completed the Private Placement. We received net proceeds of approximately $9.1 million from the Private Placement, after paying placement agent fees and offering expenses, which we will use to fund our growth initiatives and for working capital purposes.

Roth Capital Partners, LLC acted as the exclusive placement agent for the Private Placement and, as compensation therefor, we paid Roth Capital Partners, LLC placement agent fees of approximately $579,000 and issued to them a common stock purchase warrant to purchase up to 192,970 shares of our common stock at an initial exercise price of $3.30 per share. The warrant is immediately exercisable and expires on October 28, 2018. The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable under the warrant are subject to customary anti-dilutive adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and similar transactions. At any time the warrant may be exercised by means of a “cashless exercise” and we will not receive any proceeds at such time.

In conjunction with completion of the Private Placement, on October 29, 2013, the holders of our approximately $1.7 million of outstanding senior convertible notes, some of whom are officers and directors of our company, converted in full all of these senior convertible notes into approximately 780,000 shares of our common stock, whereupon all of these senior convertible notes were fully extinguished and cease to be outstanding.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, concomitantly with completion of the Private Placement, we entered into a registration rights agreement with the investors (other than our participating officers and directors), pursuant to which we filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-1 (“Form S-1 Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) registering for resale by the investors (other than our participating officers and directors) the shares of our common stock purchased by them in the Private Placement. The Form S-1 Registration Statement was declared effective by the SEC on January 27, 2014. If the Form S-1 Registration Statement is not effective for resales for more than 20 consecutive days or more than 45 days in any 12 month period during the registration period (i.e., the earlier of the date on which the shares have been sold or are eligible for sale under SEC Rule 144 without restriction), we are required to pay the investors (other than our participating officers and directors) liquidated damages in cash equal to 1.5% of the aggregate purchase price paid by the investors (other than our participating officers and directors) for the shares for every 30 days or portion thereof until the default is cured.

Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, we are required to take, among others, the following actions within certain prescribed time periods:

On February 3, 2014, we entered into a consulting agreement (the “Consulting Agreement”) with Knight Global Services, LLC (“Knight Global”) pursuant to which we retained Knight Global to assist us with increasing awareness of our electronic cigarette brands as well as assisting us to expand and diversify our relationships with large retailers and national chains.

Knight Global is a wholly owned subsidiary of Knight Global, LLC of which Ryan Kavanaugh is an investor and principal. Knight Global serves as the family office for Mr. Kavanaugh. Mr. Kavanaugh is the Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Relativity, a next-generation media company engaged in multiple aspects of entertainment, including film production; financing and distribution; television; sports management; music publishing; and digital media.

Under the terms of the Consulting Agreement, we have issued to Mr. Kavanaugh 400,000 shares of our common stock of which 50,000 shares have vested immediately while the remaining 350,000 shares will vest in installments of 50,000 shares per quarterly period beginning on the 90th day following February 3, 2014 and each ensuing quarterly period thereafter so long as the Consulting Agreement has not been terminated and during each quarterly period Knight Global has presented us with a minimum of six (6) bona fide opportunities for activities specified in the Consulting Agreement that are intended to increase awareness of our electronic cigarettes. In addition, during the term of the Consulting Agreement, which is 2 years, and during an 18-month post-termination period, we have agreed to pay Knight Global commissions payable in cash equal to 6% of “net sales” (as defined in the Consulting Agreement) of our products to retailers introduced by Knight Global and to retailers with which we have existing relationships and with which Knight Global is able, based on its verifiable efforts, to increase net sales of our products.

Mr. Kavanaugh will join our Board of Directors within five (5) business after this report is filed with the SEC.

The Consulting Agreement is terminable by us between 181 days and 364 days after February 3, 2014 if Knight Global is not performing the consulting services in accordance with the terms of the Consulting Agreement subject to us providing Knight Global with written notice of non-performance and Knight Global having a 30-day cure period to cure such non-performance. In the event of such termination, in addition to delivering previously vested shares and commission payments due and owing Knight Global, 50,000 of the unvested shares subject to quarterly vesting as described above shall automatically vest and be delivered by us to Mr. Kavanaugh and Knight Global shall be entitled to commission payments during the 18-month post-termination period.

The Consulting Agreement is terminable by Knight Global, at any time, and us, after the termination period described in the preceding paragraph, for a material uncured breach of the Consulting Agreement, provided that the terminating party has provided the other party with written notice of material breach and a 30-day cure period (or longer under certain circumstances if the breach is not curable within such 30-day period and such party has initiated curative action within such 30-day period and thereafter diligently and continuously pursues such curative action until the breach has been cured). A breach by either party is not deemed to be material unless it causes economic harm to the other party. If the terminating party desires to terminate the Consulting Agreement after the notice and cure period on the basis that the other party has not cured the breach then the terminating party, within 30 days following expiration of the cure period, is required to initiate arbitration in the Delaware Court of Chancery to determine whether the other party has materially breached the Consulting Agreement.

The foregoing description of the Consulting Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Agreement, which is listed and incorporated by reference as Exhibit 10.22 to this report and is incorporated herein by reference.

We were originally incorporated as Consolidated Mining International, Inc. in 1985 as a Nevada corporation, and changed our name in 1987 to Miller Diversified Corporation whereupon we operated in the commercial cattle feeding business until October 31, 2003 when the company sold substantially all of its assets and became a discontinued operation. On November 5, 2009, we acquired Smoke Anywhere USA, Inc., a distributor of electronic cigarettes, in a reverse triangular merger. As a result of the merger, Smoke Anywhere USA, Inc. became our sole operating business. On January 7, 2010, we changed our name to Vapor Corp. On December 31, 2013, we reincorporated to the State of Delaware from the State of Nevada. Our fiscal year is a calendar year ending December 31.

Our principal executive offices are located at 3001 Griffin Road, Dania Beach, Florida 33312, and our telephone number is (888) 766-5351. Our website is located at www.vapor-corp.com. Information on our website is not, and should not be considered, part of this report.

Competition in the electronic cigarette industry is intense. We compete with other sellers of electronic cigarettes, most notably Lorillard, Inc., Altria Group, Inc. and Reynolds American, Inc., big tobacco companies, through their electronic cigarettes business segments; the nature of our competitors is varied as the market is highly fragmented and the barriers to entry into the business are low. Our direct competitors sell products that are substantially similar to ours and through the same channels through which we sell our electronic cigarette products. We compete with these direct competitors for sales through distributors, wholesalers and retailers, including but not limited to national chain stores, tobacco shops, gas stations, travel stores, shopping mall kiosks, in addition to direct to public sales through the internet, mail order and telesales.

As a general matter, we have access to and market and sell the similar electronic cigarettes as our competitors and we sell our products at substantially similar prices as our competitors; accordingly, the key competitive factors for our success is the quality of service we offer our customers, the scope and effectiveness of our marketing efforts, including media advertising campaigns and, increasingly, the ability to identify and develop new sources of customers.

Part of our business strategy focuses on the establishment of contractual relationships with distributors. We are aware that e-cigarette competitors in the industry are also seeking to enter into such contractual relationships. In many cases, competitors for such contracts may have greater management, human, and financial resources than we do for entering into such contracts and for attracting distributor relationships. Furthermore, certain of our electronic cigarette competitors may have better control of their supply and distribution, be, better established, larger and better financed than our Company.

We also compete against “big tobacco”, U.S. cigarette manufacturers of both conventional tobacco cigarettes and electronic cigarettes like Altria Group, Inc., Lorillard, Inc. and Reynolds American, Inc. We compete against “big tobacco” who offers not only conventional tobacco cigarettes and electronic cigarettes but also smokeless tobacco products such as “snus” (a form of moist ground smokeless tobacco that is usually sold in sachet form that resembles small tea bags), chewing tobacco and snuff. “Big tobacco” has nearly limitless resources, global distribution networks in place and a customer base that is fiercely loyal to their brands. Furthermore, we believe that “big tobacco” will devote more attention and resources to developing and offering electronic cigarettes as the market for electronic cigarettes grows. Because of their well-established sales and distribution channels, marketing expertise and significant resources, “big tobacco” is better positioned than small competitors like us to capture a larger share of the electronic cigarette market.

We have no manufacturing capabilities and do not intend to develop any manufacturing capabilities. Third party manufacturers manufacture our products to meet our design specifications. We depend on third party manufacturers for our electronic cigarettes, vaporizers and accessories. Our customers associate certain characteristics of our products including the weight, feel, draw, unique flavor, packaging and other attributes of our products to the brands we market, distribute and sell. Any interruption in supply and or consistency of our products may harm our relationships and reputation with customers, and have a materially adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. In order to minimize the risk of supply interruption, we currently utilize several third party manufacturers to manufacture our products to our specifications.

We currently utilize eleven different manufacturers, all of which are based in China. We contract with our manufacturers on a purchase order basis. We do not have any output or requirements contracts with any of our manufacturers. Our manufacturers provide us with finished products, which we hold in inventory for distribution, sale and use. Certain Chinese factories and the products they export have recently been the source of safety concerns and recalls, which is generally attributed to lax regulatory, quality control and safety standards. Should Chinese factories continue to draw public criticism for exporting unsafe products, whether those products relate to our products or not we may be adversely affected by the stigma associated with Chinese production, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Although we believe that several alternative sources for our products are available, any failure to obtain the components, chemical constituents and manufacturing services necessary for the production of our products would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We believe that an adequate supply of product and raw materials will be available to us as needed and from multiple sources and suppliers.

We do not currently own any domestic or foreign patents relating to electronic cigarettes, though we do have several patent applications pending in the United States as described below. There is no assurance that we will be awarded patents for of any of these pending patent applications.

We have a patent pending for a soft-tip electronic cigarette filter, which more closely resembles the tactile experience of a conventional tobacco cigarette in a user’s mouth. To date electronic cigarettes have been made of metal and hard plastic and do not offer users the same malleable feel as the cellulose filters of conventional tobacco cigarettes.

We have a patent pending on a new configuration for the air flow sensors currently used in electronic cigarettes. The new configuration will allow the battery to be sealed to enhance the reliability and performance of the electronic cigarette.

We own trademarks on certain of our brands, including: Fifty-One^®, Krave^®, VaporX^®, Alternacig^®, EZ Smoker^®, Green Puffer^®, Americig^®, Hookah Stix^® and Smoke Star^® brands. We have also filed additional trademarks, which have yet to be awarded.

We are a defendant in a certain patent lawsuit described in the section entitled “Item 3. Legal Proceedings” in this report.

Such patent lawsuit as well as any other third party lawsuits alleging our infringement of patents, trade secrets or other intellectual property rights could force us to do one or more of the following:

Third party lawsuits alleging our infringement of patents, trade secrets or other intellectual property rights could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We may be required to obtain licenses to patents or proprietary rights of others. We cannot assure you that any licenses required under any such patents or proprietary rights would be made available on terms acceptable to us or at all. If we do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in product market introductions while we attempt to design around such patents, or could find that the development, manufacture, or sale of products requiring such licenses could be foreclosed. Litigation may be necessary to defend against claims of infringement asserted against us by others, or assert claims of infringement to enforce patents issued to us or exclusively licensed to us, to protect trade secrets or know-how possessed by us, or to determine the scope and validity of the proprietary rights of others. In addition, we may become involved in oppositions in foreign jurisdictions, reexaminations declared by the United States Patent and Trademark Office, or interference proceedings declared by the United States Patent and Trademark Office to determine the priority of inventions with respect to our patent applications or those of our licensors. Litigation, opposition, reexamination or interference proceedings could result in substantial costs to and diversion of effort by us, and may have a material adverse impact on us. In addition, we cannot assure you that our efforts to maintain or defend our patents will be successful.

Based on the December 2010 U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit’s decision in Sottera, Inc. v. Food & Drug Administration, 627 F.3d 891 (D.C. Cir. 2010), the United States Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) is permitted to regulate electronic cigarettes as “tobacco products” under the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act of 2009 (the “Tobacco Control Act”).

Under this Court decision, the FDA is not permitted to regulate electronic cigarettes as “drugs” or “devices” or a “combination product” under the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act unless they are marketed for therapeutic purposes.

Because we do not market our electronic cigarettes for therapeutic purposes, our electronic cigarettes are subject to being classified as “tobacco products” under the Tobacco Control Act. The Tobacco Control Act grants the FDA broad authority over the manufacture, sale, marketing and packaging of tobacco products, although the FDA is prohibited from issuing regulations banning all cigarettes or all smokeless tobacco products, or requiring the reduction of nicotine yields of a tobacco product to zero.

The Tobacco Control Act also requires establishment, within the FDA’s new Center for Tobacco Products, of a Tobacco Products Scientific Advisory Committee to provide advice, information and recommendations with respect to the safety, dependence or health issues related to tobacco products.

The Tobacco Control Act imposes significant new restrictions on the advertising and promotion of tobacco products. For example, the law requires the FDA to finalize certain portions of regulations previously adopted by the FDA in 1996 (which were struck down by the Supreme Court in 2000 as beyond the FDA’s authority). As written, these regulations would significantly limit the ability of manufacturers, distributors and retailers to advertise and promote tobacco products, by, for example, restricting the use of color, graphics and sound effects in advertising, limiting the use of outdoor advertising, restricting the sale and distribution of non-tobacco items and services, gifts, and sponsorship of events and imposing restrictions on the use for cigarette or smokeless tobacco products of trade or brand names that are used for non-tobacco products. The law also requires the FDA to issue future regulations regarding the promotion and marketing of tobacco products sold or distributed over the internet, by mail order or through other non-face-to-face transactions in order to prevent the sale of tobacco products to minors.

It is likely that the Tobacco Control Act could result in a decrease in tobacco product sales in the United States, including sales of our electronic cigarettes.

While the FDA has not yet mandated electronic cigarettes be regulated as tobacco products, during 2012, the FDA indicated that it intends to regulate electronic cigarettes under the Tobacco Control Act through the issuance of deeming regulations that would include electronic cigarettes under the definition of a “tobacco product” under the Tobacco Control Act subject to the FDA’s jurisdiction. The FDA initially announced that it would issue proposed deeming regulations by April 2013 and then extended the deadline to October 31, 2013. As of the date of this report, the FDA had not taken such action.

The application of the Tobacco Control Act to electronic cigarettes could impose, among other things, restrictions on the content of nicotine in electronic cigarettes, the advertising, marketing and sale of electronic cigarettes, the use of certain flavorings and the introduction of new products. We cannot predict the scope of such regulations or the impact they may have on our company specifically or the electronic cigarette industry generally, though if enacted, they could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

In this regard, total compliance and related costs are not possible to predict and depend substantially on the future requirements imposed by the FDA under the Tobacco Control Act. Costs, however, could be substantial and could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, failure to comply with the Tobacco Control Act and with FDA regulatory requirements could result in significant financial penalties and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and ability to market and sell our products. At present, we are not able to predict whether the Tobacco Control Act will impact us to a greater degree than competitors in the industry, thus affecting our competitive position.

State and local governments currently legislate and regulate tobacco products, including what is considered a tobacco product, how tobacco taxes are calculated and collected, to whom and by whom tobacco products can be sold and where tobacco products may or may not be smoked. Certain states and cities have enacted laws which preclude the use of electronic cigarettes where traditional tobacco burning cigarettes cannot be used and others have proposed legislation that would categorize electronic cigarettes as tobacco products, equivalent to their tobacco burning counterparts. If the use of electronic cigarettes is banned anywhere the use of traditional tobacco burning cigarettes is banned, electronic cigarettes may lose their appeal as an alternative to cigarettes; which may have the effect of reducing the demand for our products and as a result have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

On February 15, 2010, in response to a civil investigative demand from the Office of the Attorney General of the State of Maine, we voluntarily executed an assurance of discontinuance with the State of Maine, which prohibits us from selling electronic cigarettes in the State of Maine until such time as we obtain a retail tobacco license in the state. While suspending sales to residents of Maine is not material to our operations, other electronic cigarette companies have entered into similar agreements with other states, such as the State of Oregon. If one or more states from which we generate or anticipate generating significant sales bring actions to prevent us from selling our products unless we obtain certain licenses, approvals or permits and if we are not able to obtain the necessary licenses, approvals or permits for financial reasons or otherwise and/or any such license, approval or permit is determined to be overly burdensome to us then we may be required to cease sales and distribution of our products to those states, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

As a result of FDA import alert 66-41 (which allows the detention of unapproved drugs promoted in the U.S.), U.S. Customs has from time to time temporarily and in some instances indefinitely detained products sent to us by our Chinese suppliers. If the FDA modifies the import alert from its current form which allows U.S. Customs discretion to release our products to us, to a mandatory and definitive hold we will no longer be able to ensure a supply of saleable product, which will have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. However, we believe this FDA import alert will become less relevant to us as and when the FDA regulates electronic cigarettes under the Tobacco Control Act.

At present, neither the Prevent All Cigarette Trafficking Act (which prohibits the use of the U.S. Postal Service to mail most tobacco products and which amends the Jenkins Act, which would require individuals and businesses that make interstate sales of cigarettes or smokeless tobacco to comply with state tax laws) nor the Federal Cigarette Labeling and Advertising Act (which governs how cigarettes can be advertised and marketed) apply to electronic cigarettes. The application of either or both of these federal laws to electronic cigarettes would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

The Tobacco industry expects significant regulatory developments to take place over the next few years, driven principally by the World Health Organization’s Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (“FCTC”). The FCTC is the first international public health treaty on tobacco, and its objective is to establish a global agenda for tobacco regulation with the purpose of reducing initiation of tobacco use and encouraging cessation. Regulatory initiatives that have been proposed, introduced or enacted include:

If electronic cigarettes are subject to one or more significant regulatory initiates enacted under the FCTC, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

As of December 31, 2013, we had 45 employees, none of which are represented by a collective bargaining agreement. We believe that our employee relations are good.

Various portions of this report contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain risk factors, including those set forth below and elsewhere in this report. These risk factors are not presented in the order of importance or probability of occurrence. For purposes of these risk factors, the term “electronic cigarettes” is deemed to include “vaporizers.”

We have incurred losses in the past and cannot assure you that we will achieve or maintain profitable operations.

As of December 31, 2013, we had an accumulated deficit of $1,379,654. Our accumulated deficit is primarily due to, among other reasons, the establishment of our business infrastructure and operations, stock-based compensation expenses and increases in our marketing expenditures to grow sales of our electronic cigarettes. For the year ended December 31, 2013, we had net income of $801,352 compared to a net loss of $1,920,972 for the year ended December 31, 2012. However, we cannot assure you that we will continue to generate operating profits on a sustainable basis as we continue to expand our infrastructure, further develop our marketing efforts and otherwise implement our growth initiatives.

We have and may continue to experience liquidity and capital resources constraints because of our significant past operating losses.

At December 31, 2013, we had working capital of $11,657,615 compared to $325,836 at December 31, 2012, an increase of $11,331,779. The increase in working capital is primarily attributable to the net proceeds of approximately $9.1 million from the Private Placement and the conversion of approximately $1.7 million of senior convertible notes on October 29, 2013. Although our working capital was $11,657,615 as of December 31, 2013, there is no assurance we will have sufficient liquidity and capital resources to fund our business. In the event we experience liquidity and capital resources constraints because of operating losses, greater than anticipated sales growth or otherwise, we may need to raise additional capital in the form of equity and/or debt financing. If such additional capital is not available on terms acceptable to us or at all then we may need to curtail our operations and/or take additional measures to conserve and manage our liquidity and capital resources, any of which would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our five years of operating history, makes it difficult to accurately predict our future sales and appropriately budget our expenses.

We acquired Smoke Anywhere USA, Inc., a distributor of electronic cigarettes, on November 5, 2009. Smoke Anywhere USA, Inc. commenced its business in March 2008. Because we have only five years of operating history, and our business is still evolving, it is difficult to accurately predict our future sales and appropriately budget our expenses. Additionally, our operations will be subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a developing new business, including, among other things, efficiently deploying our capital, developing our products, developing and implementing our marketing campaigns and strategies and developing brand awareness and acceptance of our products. Our ability to generate future sales will be dependent on a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, including the pricing of competing products, overall demand for our products, changes in consumer preferences, market competition and government regulation. We are currently evaluating the expansion of our staffing, advertising campaigns and operational expenditures in anticipation of future sales growth. If our sales do not increase as anticipated, we could incur significant losses due to our higher infrastructure expense levels if we are not able to decrease our advertising and operating expenses in a timely manner to offset any shortfall in future sales.

A recent United States Federal Court decision permits the United States Food and Drug Administration to regulate electronic cigarettes as “tobacco products” under the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act of 2009 and the United States Food and Drug Administration has indicated that it intends to do so.

As indicated above, the Tobacco Control Act imposes significant new restrictions on the advertising and promotion of tobacco products. For example, the law requires the FDA to finalize certain portions of regulations previously adopted by the FDA in 1996 (which were struck down by the Supreme Court in 2000 as beyond the FDA’s authority). As written, these regulations would significantly limit the ability of manufacturers, distributors and retailers to advertise and promote tobacco products, by, for example, restricting the use of color, graphics and sound effects in advertising, limiting the use of outdoor advertising, restricting the sale and distribution of non-tobacco items and services, gifts, and sponsorship of events and imposing restrictions on the use for cigarette or smokeless tobacco products of trade or brand names that are used for non-tobacco products. The law also requires the FDA to issue future regulations regarding the promotion and marketing of tobacco products sold or distributed over the internet, by mail order or through other non-face-to-face transactions in order to prevent the sale of tobacco products to minors.

It is likely that the Tobacco Control Act could result in a decrease in tobacco product sales in the United States, including sales of our electronic cigarettes.

For a description of risks related to other government regulations, please see “Risks Related to Government Regulation” in this Section.

The recent development of electronic cigarettes has not allowed the medical profession to study the long-term health effects of electronic cigarette use.

Because electronic cigarettes were recently developed the medical profession has not had a sufficient period of time to study the long-term health effects of electronic cigarette use. Currently, therefore, there is no way of knowing whether or not electronic cigarettes are safe for their intended use. If the medical profession were to determine conclusively that electronic cigarette usage poses long-term health risks, electronic cigarette usage could decline, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected if we are taxed like other tobacco products or if we are required to collect and remit sales tax on certain of our internet sales.

Presently the sale of electronic cigarettes is not subject to federal, state and local excise taxes like the sale of conventional cigarettes or other tobacco products, all of which have faced significant increases in the amount of taxes collected on their sales. Should federal, state and local governments and or other taxing authorities impose excise taxes similar to those levied against conventional cigarettes and tobacco products on our products, it may have a material adverse effect on the demand for our products, as consumers may be unwilling to pay the increased costs for our products.

We may be unable to establish the systems and processes needed to track and submit the excise and sales taxes we collect through Internet sales, which would limit our ability to market our products through our websites which would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. States such as New York, Hawaii, Rhode Island and North Carolina have begun collecting sales taxes on Internet sales where companies have used independent contractors in those states to solicit sales from residents of that state. The requirement to collect, track and remit sales taxes based on independent affiliate sales may require us to increase our prices, which may affect demand for our products or conversely reduce our net profit margin, either of which would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

The market for electronic cigarettes is a niche market, subject to a great deal of uncertainty and is still evolving.

Electronic cigarettes, having recently been introduced to market, are at an early stage of development, represent a niche market and are evolving rapidly and are characterized by an increasing number of market entrants. Our future sales and any future profits are substantially dependent upon the widespread acceptance and use of electronic cigarettes. Rapid growth in the use of, and interest in, electronic cigarettes is recent, and may not continue on a lasting basis. The demand and market acceptance for these products is subject to a high level of uncertainty. Therefore, we are subject to all of the business risks associated with a new enterprise in a niche market, including risks of unforeseen capital requirements, failure of widespread market acceptance of electronic cigarettes, in general or, specifically our products, failure to establish business relationships and competitive disadvantages as against larger and more established competitors.

We face intense competition and our failure to compete effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We compete primarily on the basis of product quality, brand recognition, brand loyalty, service, marketing, advertising and price. We are subject to highly competitive conditions in all aspects of our business. The competitive environment and our competitive position can be significantly influenced by weak economic conditions, erosion of consumer confidence, competitors’ introduction of low-priced products or innovative products, cigarette excise taxes, higher absolute prices and larger gaps between price categories, and product regulation that diminishes the ability to differentiate tobacco products.

Our principal competitors are “big tobacco”, U.S. cigarette manufacturers of both conventional tobacco cigarettes and electronic cigarettes like Altria Group, Inc., Lorillard, Inc. and Reynolds American Inc. We compete against “big tobacco” who offers not only conventional tobacco cigarettes and electronic cigarettes but also smokeless tobacco products such as “snus” (a form of moist ground smokeless tobacco that is usually sold in sachet form that resembles small tea bags), chewing tobacco and snuff. Furthermore, we believe that “big tobacco” will devote more attention and resources to developing and offering electronic cigarettes as the market for electronic cigarettes grows. Because of their well-established sales and distribution channels, marketing expertise and significant resources, “big tobacco” is better positioned

than small competitors like us to capture a larger share of the electronic cigarette market. We also compete against numerous other smaller manufacturers or importers of cigarettes. There can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully against any of our competitors, some of whom have far greater resources, capital, experience, market penetration, sales and distribution channels than us. If our major competitors were, for example, to significantly increase the level of price discounts offered to consumers, we could respond by offering price discounts, which could have a materially adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Sales of conventional tobacco cigarettes have been declining, which could have a material adverse effect on our business.

The overall U.S. market for conventional tobacco cigarettes has generally been declining in terms of volume of sales, as a result of restrictions on advertising and promotions, funding of smoking prevention campaigns, increases in regulation and excise taxes, a decline in the social acceptability of smoking, and other factors, and such sales are expected to continue to decline. Recently, a national drug store chain announced that it would cease selling tobacco products by October 1, 2014. If other national drug store chains also decide to cease selling tobacco products, cigarette sales could decline further. While the sales of electronic cigarettes have been increasing over the last several years, the electronic cigarette market is only developing and is a fraction of the size of the conventional tobacco cigarette market. A continual decline in cigarette sales may adversely affect the growth of the electronic cigarette market, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Third party assertions of our infringement of their intellectual property rights could result in our having to incur significant costs and modify the way in which we currently operate our business.

Although we have filed patent applications, we do not own any domestic or foreign patents relating to our electronic cigarettes. The electronic cigarette industry is nascent and third parties may claim patent rights over one or more types of electronic cigarettes. For example, Ruyan Investment (Holdings) Limited (“Ruyan”), a Chinese company, has made certain public claims as to their ownership of patents relating to an “Atomizing Electronic Cigarette” and has filed two separate lawsuits against us. We and Ruyan settled the first lawsuit on March 1, 2013, while the other lawsuit has been stayed along with other patent infringement lawsuits filed by Ruyan against other defendants pending the results of an inter partes reexamination requested by one of the defendants in the other lawsuits. For a description of Ruyan’s first lawsuit against us and the related settlement and Ruyan’s second lawsuit against us and the related stay, please see “Item 3. Legal Proceedings” of this report. We currently purchase our products from Chinese manufacturers other than Ruyan.

Ruyan’s lawsuit as well as any other third party lawsuits alleging our infringement of patents, trade secrets or other intellectual property rights could cause us to do one or more of the following:

There is no assurance that third party lawsuits alleging our infringement of patents, trade secrets or other intellectual property rights could not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We may not be able to adequately protect our intellectual property rights in China or elsewhere, which could harm our business and competitive position.

We believe that patents, trademarks, trade secrets and other intellectual property we use and are developing are important to sustaining and growing our business. We utilize third party manufacturers to manufacture our products in China, where the validity, enforceability and scope of protection available under intellectual property laws are uncertain and still evolving. Implementation and enforcement of Chinese intellectual property-related laws have historically been deficient, ineffective and hampered by corruption and local protectionism. Accordingly, we may not be able to adequately protect our intellectual property in China, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Furthermore, policing unauthorized use of our intellectual property in China and elsewhere is difficult and expensive, and we may need to resort to litigation to enforce or defend our intellectual property or to determine the enforceability, scope and validity of our proprietary rights or those of others. Such litigation and an adverse determination in any such litigation, if any, could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention, which could harm our business and competitive position.

Electronic cigarettes are new to the marketplace and since their introduction certain members of the media, politicians, government regulators and advocate groups, including independent medical physicians have called for an outright ban of all electronic cigarettes, pending regulatory review and a demonstration of safety. A partial or outright ban would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We rely on a limited number of key employees and may experience difficulty in attracting and hiring qualified new personnel in some areas of our business.

The loss of any of our key employees could adversely affect our business. As a member of the tobacco industry, we may experience difficulty in identifying and hiring qualified executives and other personnel in some areas of our business. This difficulty is primarily attributable to the health and social issues associated with the tobacco industry. The loss of services of any key employees or our inability to attract, hire and retain personnel with requisite skills could restrict our ability to develop new products, enhance existing products in a timely manner, sell products or manage our business effectively. These factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We may experience product liability claims in our business, which could adversely affect our business.

The tobacco industry in general has historically been subject to frequent product liability claims. As a result, we may experience product liability claims from the marketing and sale of electronic cigarettes. Any product liability claim brought against us, with or without merit, could result in:

Any one or more of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

If we experience product recalls, we may incur significant and unexpected costs and our business reputation could be adversely affected.

We may be exposed to product recalls and adverse public relations if our products are alleged to cause illness or injury, or if we are alleged to have violated governmental regulations. A product recall could result in substantial and unexpected expenditures that could exceed our product recall insurance coverage limits and harm to our reputation, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, a product recall may require significant management time and attention and may adversely impact on the value of our brands. Product recalls may lead to greater scrutiny by federal or state regulatory agencies and increased litigation, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Product exchanges, returns and warranty claims may adversely affect our business.

If we are unable to maintain an acceptable degree of quality control of our products we will incur costs associated with the exchange and return of our products as well as servicing our customers for warranty claims. Any of the foregoing on a significant scale may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Adverse economic conditions may adversely affect the demand for our products.

Electronic cigarettes are new to market and may be regarded by users as a novelty item and expendable as such demand for our products may be extra sensitive to economic conditions. When economic conditions are prosperous, discretionary spending typically increases; conversely, when economic conditions are unfavorable, discretionary spending often declines. Any significant decline in economic conditions that affects consumer spending could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Generating foreign sales will result in additional costs and expenses and may expose us to a variety of risks.

In the first quarter of 2012, we began selling our electronic cigarettes in the country of Canada through a Canadian distributor. Generating sales of our products in Canada as well as other foreign jurisdictions will require us to incur additional costs and expenses. Furthermore, our entry into foreign jurisdictions may expose us to various risks, which differ in each jurisdiction, and any of such risks may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Such risks include the degree of competition, fluctuations in currency exchange rates, difficulty and costs relating to compliance with different commercial, legal, regulatory and tax regimes and political and economic instability.

We intend to undertake extensive marketing activities to promote brand awareness and our portfolio of products. If we are unable to generate significant market awareness for our products and our brands at the consumer level or unable to capitalize on significant marketing, advertising or promotional campaigns we undertake, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

We rely, significantly, on the efforts of third party agents to generate sales of our products.

We rely, significantly, on the efforts of independent distributors to purchase and distribute our products to wholesalers and retailers. No single distributor currently accounts for a material percentage of our sales and we believe that should any of these relationships terminate we would be able to find suitable replacements and do so on a timely basis. However, any loss of distributors or our ability to timely replace any given distributor could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We rely, in part, on the efforts of independent salespersons who sell our products to distributors and major retailers and Internet sales affiliates to generate sales of products. No single independent salesperson or Internet affiliate currently accounts for a material percentage of our sales and we believe that should any of these relationships terminate we would be able to find suitable replacements and do so on a timely basis. However, any loss of independent sales persons or Internet sales affiliates or our ability to timely replace any one of them could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We may not be able to establish sustainable relationships with large retailers or national chains.

We believe the best way to develop brand and product recognition and increase sales volume is to establish relationships with large retailers and national chains. We currently have established relationships with five large retailers and national chains and in connection therewith we have agreed to pay such retailers and chains fees, known as “slotting fees”, to carry and offer our products for sale based on the number of stores our products will be carried in. These existing relationships are “at-will” and one of them is also “pay on scan” meaning that either party may terminate the relationship for any reason or no reason at all and, as to the “pay on scan” relationship, we only receive payment from the retailer after our product has been scanned for final sale by the retailer to its customer. We may not be able to sustain these relationships or establish other relationships with large retailers or national chains or, even if we do so, sustain such other relationships. Our inability to develop and sustain relationships with large retailers and national chains will impede our ability to develop brand and product recognition and increase sales volume and, ultimately, require us to pursue and rely on local and more fragmented sales channels, which will have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We may not be able to adapt as the electronic cigarette industry and customer demand evolves, whether attributable to regulatory constraints or requirements, a lack of financial resources or our failure to respond in a timely and/or effective manner to new technologies, customer preferences, changing market conditions or new developments in our industry. Any of the failures to adapt for the reasons cited herein or otherwise could make our products obsolete and would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We depend on third party manufacturers for our electronic cigarettes, vaporizers and accessories. Our customers associate certain characteristics of our products including the weight, feel, draw, unique flavor, packaging and other attributes of our products to the brands we market, distribute and sell. Any interruption in supply and/or consistency of our products may adversely impact our ability to deliver our products to our wholesalers, distributors and customers and otherwise harm our relationships and reputation with customers, and have a materially adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Although we believe that several alternative sources for the components, chemical constituents and manufacturing services necessary for the production of our products are available, any failure to obtain any of the foregoing would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our manufacturers are based in China. Certain Chinese factories and the products they export have recently been the source of safety concerns and recalls, which is generally attributed to lax regulatory, quality control and safety standards. Should Chinese factories continue to draw public criticism for exporting unsafe products, whether those products relate to our products or not we may be adversely affected by the stigma associated with Chinese production, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We believe that establishing and maintaining the brand identities of our products is a critical aspect of attracting and expanding a large customer base. Promotion and enhancement of our brands will depend largely on our success in continuing to provide high quality products. If our customers and end users do not perceive our products to be of high quality, or if we introduce new products or enter into new business ventures that are not favorably received by our customers and end users, we will risk diluting our brand identities and decreasing their attractiveness to existing and potential customers.

Moreover, in order to attract and retain customers and to promote and maintain our brand equity in response to competitive pressures, we may have to increase substantially our financial commitment to creating and maintaining a distinct brand loyalty among our customers. If we incur significant expenses in an attempt to promote and maintain our brands, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.

We expect that new products and/or brands we develop will expose us to risks that may be difficult to identify until such products and/or brands are commercially available.

We are currently developing, and in the future will continue to develop, new products and brands, the risks of which will be difficult to ascertain until these products and/or brands are commercially available. For example, we are developing new formulations, packaging and distribution channels. Any negative events or results that may arise as we develop new products or brands may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

If we are unable to manage our anticipated future growth, our business and results of operations could suffer materially.

Our business has grown rapidly during our limited operating history. Our future operating results depend to a large extent on our ability to successfully manage our anticipated growth. To manage our anticipated growth, we believe we must effectively, among other things:

We are increasing our investment in marketing and distribution channels and other functions to grow our business. We are likely to incur the costs associated with these increased investments earlier than some of the anticipated benefits and the return on these investments, if any, may be lower, may develop more slowly than we expect or may not materialize.

If we are unable to manage our growth effectively, we may not be able to take advantage of market opportunities or develop new products, and we may fail to satisfy product requirements, maintain product quality, execute our business plan or respond to competitive pressures, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We face competition from foreign importers who do not comply with government regulation.

We face competition from foreign sellers of electronic cigarettes that may illegally ship their products into the United States for direct delivery to customers. These market participants will not have the added cost and expense of complying with U.S. regulations and taxes and as a result will be able to offer

their product at a more competitive price than us and potentially capture market share. Moreover, should we be unable to sell certain of our products during any regulatory approval process we have no assurances that we will be able to recapture those customers that we lost to our foreign domiciled competitors during any “blackout” periods, during which we are not permitted to sell our products. This competitive disadvantage may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and our financial condition.

At present we generate a portion of our sales through e-commerce sales on our websites. We manage our websites and e-commerce platform internally and as a result any compromise of our security or misappropriation of proprietary information could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We rely on encryption and authentication technology licensed from third parties to provide the security and authentication necessary to effect secure Internet transmission of confidential information, such as credit and other proprietary information. Advances in computer capabilities, new discoveries in the field of cryptography or other events or developments may result in a compromise or breach of the technology used by us to protect client transaction data. Anyone who is able to circumvent our security measures could misappropriate proprietary information or cause material interruptions in our operations. We may be required to expend significant capital and other resources to protect against security breaches or to minimize problems caused by security breaches. To the extent that our activities or the activities of others involve the storage and transmission of proprietary information, security breaches could damage our reputation and expose us to a risk of loss and/or litigation. Our security measures may not prevent security breaches. Our failure to prevent these security breaches may result in consumer distrust and may adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our results of operations could be adversely affected by currency exchange rates and currency devaluations.

Our functional currency is the U.S. dollar; substantially all of our purchases and sales are currently generated in U.S. dollars. However, our manufacturers and suppliers are located in China. The Chinese currency, the renminbi, has appreciated significantly against the U.S. dollar in recent years. Fluctuations in exchange rates between our respective currencies could result in higher production and supply costs to us which would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations if we are not willing or able to pass those costs on to our customers.

If we fail to satisfy our registration obligations under the registration rights agreement for the shares of our common stock issued in the Private Placement, we would be required to make certain cash payments to certain of the holders of such shares.

Under the registration rights agreements for the Private Placement, we filed the Form S-1 Registration Statement with SEC to register for resale the shares of common stock purchased by the investors (other than our participating officers and directors). The Form S-1 Registration Statement was declared effective by the SEC on January 27, 2014. If the Form S-1 Registration Statement is not effective for resales for more than 20 consecutive days or more than 45 days in any 12 month period during the registration period (i.e., the earlier of the date on which the shares have been sold or are eligible for sale under SEC Rule 144 without restriction), we are required to pay the investors (other than our participating officers and directors) liquidated damages in cash equal to 1.5% of the aggregate purchase price paid by the investors (other than our participating officers and directors) for the shares for every 30 days or portion thereof until the default is cured. Such cash payments, which could be as much as $144,728 for every 30 days, could significantly reduce our working capital and liquidity and could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Changes in laws, regulations and other requirements could adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.

In addition to the anticipated regulation of our business by the FDA, our business, results of operations or financial condition could be adversely affected by new or future legal requirements imposed by legislative or regulatory initiatives, including, but not limited to, those relating to health care, public health and welfare and environmental matters. For example, in recent years, states and many local and municipal governments and agencies, as well as private businesses, have adopted legislation, regulations or policies which prohibit, restrict, or discourage smoking; smoking in public buildings and facilities, stores, restaurants and bars; and smoking on airline flights and in the workplace. Furthermore, some states prohibit and others are considering prohibiting the sales of electronic cigarettes to minors. Other similar laws and regulations are currently under consideration and may be enacted by state and local governments in the future. At present, it is not clear if electronic cigarettes, which omit no smoke or noxious odors, are subject to such restrictions. If electronic cigarettes are subject to restrictions on smoking in public and other places, our business, operating results and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected. New legislation or regulations may result in increased costs directly for our compliance or indirectly to the extent such requirements increase the prices of goods and services because of increased costs or reduced availability. We cannot predict whether such legislative or regulatory initiatives will result in significant changes to existing laws and regulations and/or whether any changes in such laws or regulations will have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Restrictions on the public use of electronic cigarettes may reduce the attractiveness and demand for our electronic cigarettes.

Certain states, cities, businesses, providers of transportation and public venues in the U.S. have already banned the use of electronic cigarettes, while others are considering banning the use of electronic cigarettes. If the use of electronic cigarettes is banned anywhere the use of traditional tobacco burning cigarettes is banned, electronic cigarettes may lose their appeal as an alternative to traditional tobacco burning cigarettes, which may reduce the demand for our products and, thus, have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Limitation by states on sales of electronic cigarettes may have a material adverse effect on our ability to sell our products.

The FDA has issued an import alert which has limited our ability to import certain of our products.

As a result of FDA import alert 66-41 (which allows the detention of unapproved drugs promoted in the U.S.), U.S. Customs has from time to time temporarily and in some instances indefinitely detained products sent to us by our Chinese suppliers. If the FDA modifies the import alert from its current form which allows U.S. Customs discretion to release our products to us, to a mandatory and definitive hold we will no longer be able to ensure a supply of saleable product, which will have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. We believe this FDA import alert will become less relevant to us as and when the FDA regulates electronic cigarettes under the Tobacco Control Act.

The application of the Prevent All Cigarette Trafficking Act and/or the Federal Cigarette Labeling and Advertising Act to electronic cigarettes would have a material adverse affect on our business.

At present, neither the Prevent All Cigarette Trafficking Act (which prohibits the use of the U.S. Postal Service to mail most tobacco products and which amends the Jenkins Act, which would require individuals and businesses that make interstate sales of cigarettes or smokeless tobacco to comply with state tax laws) nor the Federal Cigarette Labeling and Advertising Act (which governs how cigarettes can be advertised and marketed) apply to electronic cigarettes. The application of either or both of these federal laws to electronic cigarettes could result in additional expenses, could prohibit us from selling products through the internet and require us to change our advertising and labeling and method of marketing our products, any of which would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We may face the same governmental actions aimed at conventional cigarettes and other tobacco products.

Tobacco industry expects significant regulatory developments to take place over the next few years, driven principally by the World Health Organization’s Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (“FCTC”). The FCTC is the first international public health treaty on tobacco, and its objective is to establish a global agenda for tobacco regulation with the purpose of reducing initiation of tobacco use and encouraging cessation. Regulatory initiatives that have been proposed, introduced or enacted include:

Our common stock has historically been thinly traded and you may be unable to sell at or near ask prices or at all if you desire to liquidate your shares.

We cannot predict the extent to which an active public market for our common stock will develop or be sustained. Under the Purchase Agreement governing the Private Placement, we are required to list our common stock on The NASDAQ Capital Market not later than July 29, 2014. No assurance can be given that will be able to do so by then or at all.

Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, where it has historically been sporadically or “thinly-traded”, meaning that the number of persons interested in purchasing our common stock at or near bid prices at any given time may be relatively small or non-existent. This situation is

attributable to a number of factors, including the fact that we are a small company which has incurred significant operating losses and is relatively unknown to stock analysts, stock brokers, institutional investors and others in the investment community that generate or influence sales volume, and that even if we came to the attention of such persons, they tend to be risk-averse and would be reluctant to follow an unproven company such as ours or purchase or recommend the purchase of our shares until such time as we became more seasoned and viable. As a consequence, there may be periods of several days or more when trading activity in our shares is minimal or non-existent, as compared to a seasoned issuer which has a large and steady volume of trading activity that will generally support continuous sales without an adverse effect on share price. Even if our common stock is listed for trading on The NASDAQ Capital Market, we cannot give you any assurance that a broader or more active public trading market for our common stock will develop or be sustained.

Our common stock is currently deemed a “penny stock,” which makes it more difficult for our investors to sell their shares.

Our common stock is subject to the “penny stock” rules adopted under Section 15(g) of the Exchange Act. The penny stock rules generally apply to companies whose common stock is not listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market or other national securities exchange and trades at less than $4.00 per share, other than companies that have had average revenue of at least $6,000,000 for the last three years or that have tangible net worth (i.e., total assets less intangible assets and liabilities) of at least $5,000,000 ($2,000,000 if the company has been operating for three or more years). These rules require, among other things, that brokers who trade penny stock to persons other than “established customers” complete certain documentation, make suitability inquiries of investors and provide investors with certain information concerning trading in the security, including a risk disclosure document and quote information under certain circumstances. Many brokers have decided not to trade penny stocks because of the requirements of the penny stock rules and, as a result, the number of broker-dealers willing to act as market makers in such securities is limited. If we remain subject to the penny stock rules for any significant period, it could have an adverse effect on the market, if any, for our common stock. If our common stock is subject to the penny stock rules, investors will find it more difficult to dispose of our common stock.

The market price of our common stock has been and may continue to be volatile.

The market price of our common stock has been volatile, and fluctuates widely in price in response to various factors, which are beyond our control. The price of our common stock is not necessarily indicative of our operating performance or long-term business prospects. In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Factors such as the following could cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate substantially:

The stock market in general experiences from time to time extreme price and volume fluctuations. Periodic and/or continuous market fluctuations could result in extreme volatility in the price of our common stock, which could cause a decline in the value of our common stock. Price volatility may be worse if the trading volume of our common stock is low.

Volatility in our common stock price may subject us to securities litigation.

The market for our common stock is characterized by significant price volatility when compared to seasoned issuers, and we expect that our share price will continue to be more volatile than a seasoned issuer for the indefinite future. In the past, plaintiffs have often initiated securities class action litigation against a company following periods of volatility in the market price of its securities. We may, in the future, be the target of similar litigation. Securities litigation could result in substantial costs and liabilities to us and could divert our management’s attention and resources from managing our operations and business.

As of February 25, 2014, we had 16,614,528 shares of our common stock outstanding, and warrants and options that are exercisable into 1,191,791 shares of our common stock. Approximately 9,466,000 of the 16,614,528 outstanding shares are eligible for resale without restriction in the public market. If any significant number of the 9,466,000 shares are sold, such sales could have a depressive effect on the market price of our stock. The remaining shares are eligible, and some of the shares underlying the warrants and options upon issuance will be eligible, to be offered from time to time in the public market pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act, and any such sale of these shares may have a depressive effect as well. We are unable to predict the effect, if any, that the sale of shares, or the availability of shares for future sale, will have on the market price of the shares prevailing from time to time. Sales of substantial amounts of shares in the public market, or the perception that such sales could occur, could depress prevailing market prices for the shares. Such sales may also make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price, which we deem appropriate.

If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results. As a result, we could become subject to sanctions or investigations by regulatory authorities and/or stockholder litigation, which could harm our business and have an adverse effect on our stock price.

As a public reporting company, we are required to comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the related rules and regulations of the SEC, including periodic reports, disclosures and more complex accounting rules. As directed by Section 404 of Sarbanes-Oxley, the SEC adopted rules requiring public companies to include a report of management on a company’s internal control over financial reporting in their Annual Report on Form 10-K. Based on current rules, we are required to report under Section 404(a) of Sarbanes-Oxley regarding the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. During the fourth quarter of 2011, we remediated our previously disclosed material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls as of March 31, 2011 and that persisted during 2011 until remediation. If we determine that we have other material weaknesses, it may be necessary to make further restatements of our consolidated financial statements and investors will not be able to rely on the completeness and accuracy of the financial information contained in our filings with the SEC and this could potentially subject us to sanctions or investigations by the SEC or other regulatory authorities or stockholder litigation.

Our board could issue “blank check” preferred stock without stockholder approval with the effect of diluting existing stockholders and impairing their voting rights, and provisions in our charter documents could discourage a takeover that stockholders may consider favorable.

Our certificate of incorporation authorize the issuance of up to 1,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock with designations, rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by our board of directors. Our board is empowered, without stockholder approval, to issue a series of preferred stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights which could dilute the interest of, or impair the voting power of, our common stockholders. The issuance of a series of preferred stock could be used as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control. For example, it would be possible for our board of directors to issue preferred stock with voting or other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to effect a change in control of our company.

Our bylaws also allow our board of directors to fix the number of directors. Our stockholders do not have cumulative voting in the election of directors.

Any aspect of the foregoing, alone or together, could delay or prevent unsolicited takeovers and changes in control or changes in our management.

Having no independent directors on our board limits our ability to establish effective independent corporate governance procedures.

We do not have any independent directors on our board of directors nor do we maintain a standing audit committee, compensation committee or nominating and governance committee. Accordingly, without independent directors, we cannot establish effective standing board committees to oversee functions such as audit, compensation and corporate governance. In addition, two of our executive officers are also directors, Kevin Frija, who is our Chief Executive Officer, and Jeffrey Holman, who is our President. This structure gives our executive officers significant control over all corporate issues.

Unless and until we have a larger board of directors that would include a majority of independent members, there will be limited oversight of our executive officers’ decisions and activities and little ability for you to challenge or reverse those activities and decisions, even if they are not in your best interests.

The former stockholders of our operating subsidiary Smoke Anywhere USA, Inc. are our largest stockholders and, as such, they can exert significant influence over us and make decisions that are not in the best interests of all stockholders.

Former stockholders of our operating subsidiary Smoke Anywhere USA, Inc., three of whom serve as our Chief Executive Officer, President and director of licensing and business development, respectively, and others of whom serve as members of the board of directors of Smoke Anywhere USA, Inc., beneficially own in excess of 30% of our outstanding shares of common stock. As a result, these stockholders are able to assert significant influence over all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election and removal of directors and any change in control. In particular, this concentration of ownership of our outstanding shares of common stock could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control, or otherwise discouraging or preventing a potential acquirer from attempting to obtain control. This, in turn, could have a negative effect on the market price of our common stock. It could also prevent our stockholders from realizing a premium over the market prices for their shares of common stock. Moreover, the interests of the owners of this concentration of ownership may not always coincide with our interests or the interests of other stockholders and, accordingly, could cause us to enter into transactions or agreements that we would not otherwise consider.

We do not anticipate paying cash dividends for the foreseeable future, and therefore investors should not buy our stock if they wish to receive cash dividends.

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends or distributions on our common stock. We currently intend to retain our future earnings to support operations and to finance expansion and, therefore, we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

We lease approximately 13,323 square feet of office and warehouse facilities located at 3001 and 3091 Griffin Road, Dania Beach Florida, under a twenty-four month lease agreement with an initial term through April 30, 2013 that we extended in March 2013 when we exercised the first of three successive one-year renewal options. The lease provides for annual rental payments of $144,000 per annum (including 45 days of total rent abatement) during the initial twenty-four month term and annual rental payments of $151,200, $158,760 and $174,636 during each of the three one-year renewal options. The lease requires us to pay all applicable state and municipal sales tax as well as all operating expenses relating to the premises. In October 2013, we amended the master lease to include an additional approximately 2,200 square feet for an additional annual rental payment of $18,000 subject to the same renewal options and other terms and conditions set forth in the master lease.

From time to time we may be involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of our business. There were no pending material claims or legal matters as of the date of this report other than one of the two following matters.

On May 15, 2011, the Company became aware that Ruyan Investment (Holdings) Limited (“Ruyan”) had named the Company, along with three other sellers of electronic cigarettes in a lawsuit alleging patent infringement under federal law. In that lawsuit, which was initially filed on January 12, 2011, Ruyan was unsuccessful in bringing suit against the Company due to procedural rules of the court. Subsequent thereto, on July 29, 2011, Ruyan filed a new lawsuit in which it named the Company, along with seven other sellers of electronic cigarettes, alleging patent infringement under federal law. The lawsuit is Ruyan Investment (Holdings) Limited vs. Vapor Corp. et. al.2:11 CV-06268-GAF-FFM and is pending in the United States District Court for the Central District of California. On September 23, 2011, the Company filed an answer and counterclaims against Ruyan in the lawsuit. A joint scheduling conference among the parties occurred on January 9, 2012. On February 6, 2012, the Court sent out its final Scheduling Order and established a trial date of June 25, 2013. On February 27, 2012, Ruyan served its Infringement Contentions against the Company claiming that the Company’s Fifty-One Trio model of electronic cigarette infringes their patent. On March 1, 2013, the Company and Ruyan settled this multi-defendant federal patent infringement lawsuit as to them pursuant to a settlement agreement by and between them. Under the terms of the settlement agreement:

On June 22, 2012, Ruyan filed a second lawsuit against the Company alleging patent infringement under federal law by the Company of a certain patent issued to Ruyan by the United States Patent Office on April 17, 2012. Ruyan has filed separate cases of patent infringement against 10 different defendants, including the Company, asserting that each defendant has infringed United States Patent No. 8,156,944. (the “944 Patent”). Ruyan’s second lawsuit against the Company known as Ruyan Investment (Holdings) Limited vs. Vapor Corp. CV-12-5466 is pending in the United States District Court for the Central District of California. All of these lawsuits have been consolidated for discovery and pre-trial purposes. The Company intends to vigorously defend against this lawsuit.

On February 25, 2013, Ruyan’s second federal patent infringement lawsuit against the Company as well as all of the other consolidated lawsuits were stayed as a result of the Court granting a stay in one of the consolidated lawsuits. The Court granted the motion to stay Ruyan’s separate lawsuits against the Company and the other defendants because one of the defendants has filed a request for inter partes reexamination of the 944 Patent. The purpose of the reexamination of the 944 Patent is to reevaluate its patentability.

As a result of the stay, all of the consolidated lawsuits involving the 944 Patent have been stayed until the reexamination is completed. As a condition to granting the stay of all the lawsuits, the Court has required any other defendant who desires to seek reexamination of the 944 Patent and potentially seek another stay (or an extension of the existing stay) based on any such reexamination to seek such reexamination no later than July 1, 2013. Two other defendants sought reexamination of the 944 Patent before expiration of such Court-imposed deadline of July 1, 2013. All reexamination proceedings of the 944 Patent have been stayed by the United States Patent and Trademark Office Patent Trial and Appeal Board pending its approval of one or more of them.

Our shares of common stock are currently quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol VPCO.OB. The following table sets forth the high and low closing bid prices of our common stock for the quarterly periods for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. These bid prices give effect to a 1-for- 5 reverse stock split of our shares of common stock which became effective in the marketplace at the opening of business on December 27, 2013. These bid prices represent prices quoted by broker-dealers on the OTC Bulletin Board. The quotations reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commissions, and may not represent actual transactions.

As of February 25, 2014, there were 3,361 shareholders of record. However, we believe that there are significantly more beneficial holders of our common stock as many beneficial holders hold their stock in “street” name.

We did not pay any cash dividends on our common stock during 2013 or 2012 and have no intention of doing so in the foreseeable future. We intend to retain any earnings for use in our operations and the expansion of our business. Any future determination to declare and pay cash dividends will be made at the discretion of our board of directors, subject to applicable laws and will depend on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital requirements, general business conditions, any contractual restriction on the payment of dividends and other factors that our board of directors may deem relevant.

Reference is made to “Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters—Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans” for the information required by this item.

In addition to historical information, this report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements are those that predict or describe future events or trends and that do not relate solely to historical matters. You can generally identify forward-looking statements as statements containing the words “believe,” “expect,” “will,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “project,” “assume” or other similar expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. All statements in this report

regarding our future strategy, future operations, projected financial position, estimated future revenue, projected costs, future prospects, and results that might be obtained by pursuing management’s current plans and objectives are forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements because the matters they describe are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other unpredictable factors, many of which are beyond our control. Important risks that might cause our actual results to differ materially from the results contemplated by the forward-looking statements are contained in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” and “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of this report and in our subsequent filings with the SEC. Our forward-looking statements are based on the information currently available to us and speak only as of the date on which this report was filed with the SEC. We expressly disclaim any obligation to issue any updates or revisions to our forward-looking statements, even if subsequent events cause our expectations to change regarding the matters discussed in those statements. Over time, our actual results, performance or achievements will likely differ from the anticipated results, performance or achievements that are expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements, and such difference may be significant and materially adverse to our stockholders.

The following management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.

The Company designs, markets, and distributes electronic cigarettes, vaporizers, e-liquids and accessories, under the Fifty-One^® (also known as Smoke 51), Krave^®, VaporX^®, Alternacig^®, EZ Smoker^®, Green Puffer^®, Americig^®, Fumaré™, Hookah Stix^® and Smoke Star^® brands. “Electronic cigarettes” or “e-cigarettes,” and or “vaporizers” are battery-powered products that enable users to inhale nicotine vapor without smoke, tar, ash, or carbon monoxide. Electronic cigarettes look like traditional cigarettes and, regardless of their construction, are comprised of three functional components: (i) a mouthpiece, which is a small plastic cartridge that contains a liquid nicotine solution; (ii) a heating element that vaporizes the liquid nicotine so that it can be inhaled; and (iii) the electronics, which include: a lithium-ion battery, an airflow sensor, a microchip controller and an LED, which illuminates to indicate use.

The Company participates directly in the highly competitive and fragmented e-cigarette market, but also faces competition from tobacco companies. Electronic cigarettes are relatively new products and the Company is continually working to introduce its products and brands to customers. The Company believes increased investment in marketing and advertising programs is critical to increasing product and brand awareness and that sales of its innovative and differentiated products are enhanced by knowledgeable salespersons who can convey the value and benefits electronic cigarettes have to offer over traditional tobacco burning cigarettes.

The Company’s business strategy leverages its ability to design market and develop multiple e-cigarette brands and to bring those brands to market through its multiple distribution channels. The Company sells its products through its online stores, its direct response television marketing efforts, to retail channels through its direct sales force, and through third-party wholesalers, retailers, and value-added resellers.

This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). 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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of net revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These estimates and assumptions include valuing equity securities, derivative instruments, hybrid instruments, share based payment arrangements, deferred taxes and related valuation allowances. Certain of our estimates could be affected by external conditions, including those unique to our industry, and general economic conditions. It is possible that these external factors could have an effect on our estimates that could cause actual results to differ from our estimates. The Company re-evaluates all of its accounting estimates at least quarterly based on these conditions and records adjustments when necessary.

Net sales consist primarily of revenue from the sale of electronic cigarettes, vaporizers, e-liquids, replacement cartridges, components for electronic cigarettes and related accessories. We recognize revenue from product sales when the persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, selling price has been fixed and determined, delivery has occurred and collectability is reasonably assured. Product sales and shipping revenues, net of promotional discounts, rebates, and return allowances, are recorded when the products are shipped and title passes to customers. Retail items sold to customers are made pursuant to sales contracts that generally provide for transfer of both title and risk of loss upon our delivery to the carrier. Customer allowances and product returns, which reduce product revenue by our best estimate of these expected allowances and product returns, are estimated using historical experience. Revenue from product sales and services rendered is recorded net of sales taxes.

Accounts receivable, net are stated at the amount the Company expects to collect. The Company provides a provision for allowances that includes returns, allowances and doubtful accounts equal to the estimated uncollectible amounts. The Company estimates its provision for allowances based on historical collection experience and a review of the current status of trade accounts receivable. It is reasonably possible that the Company’s estimate of the provision for allowances will change.

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined by the first-in, first-out method) or market. If the cost of the inventories exceeds their market value, provisions are recorded to write down excess inventory to its net realizable value. The Company’s inventories consist primarily of merchandise available for resale.

We account for stock-based compensation under Accounting Standard Codification Topic (“ASC”)718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). These standards define a fair value based method of accounting for stock-based compensation. In accordance with ASC 718, the cost of stock-based compensation is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the vesting period. The value of the stock-based award is determined using the Black-Scholes-Merton valuation model, whereby compensation cost is the estimated fair value of the award as determined by the valuation model at the grant date or other measurement date. The resulting amount is charged to expense on the straight-line basis over the period in which we expect to receive the benefit, which is generally the vesting period.

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating

loss, capital loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company records interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of general and administrative expenses. Our consolidated federal tax return and any state tax returns are not currently under examination.

The Company accounts for free-standing derivative instruments and hybrid instruments that contain embedded derivative features in accordance with ASC Topic No. 815, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” (“ASC 815”) as well as related interpretations of this topic. In accordance with this topic, derivative instruments and hybrid instruments are recognized as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and are measured at fair values with gains or losses recognized in earnings. Embedded derivatives that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract are bifurcated and are recognized at fair value with changes in fair value recognized as either a gain or loss in earnings. The Company determines the fair value of derivative instruments and hybrid instruments based on available market data using appropriate valuation models, giving consideration to all of the rights and obligations of each instrument.

The Company estimates fair values of derivative instruments and hybrid instruments using various techniques (and combinations thereof) that are considered to be consistent with the objective of measuring fair values. In selecting the appropriate technique, the Company considers, among other factors, the nature of the instrument, the market risks that it embodies and the expected means of settlement. For less complex instruments, such as free-standing warrants, the Company generally uses the Black-Scholes-Merton valuation model, adjusted for the effect of dilution, because it embodies all of the requisite assumptions (including trading volatility, estimated terms, dilution and risk free rates) necessary to fair value these instruments. Estimating fair values of derivative financial instruments requires the development of significant and subjective estimates that may, and are likely to, change over the duration of the instrument with related changes in internal and external market factors. In addition, option-based techniques (such as the Black-Scholes-Merton valuation model) are highly volatile and sensitive to changes in the trading market price of the Company’s common stock. Since derivative financial instruments are initially and subsequently carried at fair values, the Company’s income (loss) going forward will reflect the volatility in these estimates and assumption changes. Under ASC 815, increases in the trading price of the Company’s common stock and increases in fair value during a given financial quarter result in the application of non-cash derivative expense. Conversely, decreases in the trading price of the Company’s common stock and decreases in trading fair value during a given financial quarter result in the application of non-cash derivative income.

The Company accounts for convertible debt instruments when the Company has determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments in accordance with ASC 470-20 “Debt with Conversion and Other Options”. The Company records, when necessary, discounts to convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. The Company amortizes the respective debt discount over the term of the notes, using the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest method.

In the ordinary course of business, we are involved in legal proceedings regarding contractual and employment relationships, product liability claims, trademark rights, and a variety of other matters. We record contingent liabilities resulting from claims against us, including related legal costs, when a loss is assessed to be probable and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable. Assessing probability of loss and estimating probable losses requires analysis of multiple factors, including, in some cases, judgments about the potential actions of third party claimants and courts. Recorded contingent liabilities are based on the best information available and actual losses in any future period are inherently uncertain. If future adjustments to estimated probable future losses or actual losses exceed our recorded liability for such claims, we would record additional charges as other (income) expense, net during the period in which the actual loss or change in estimate occurred. In addition to contingent liabilities recorded for probable losses, we disclose contingent liabilities when there is a reasonable possibility that the ultimate loss will materially exceed the recorded liability. Currently, we do not believe that any of our pending legal proceedings or claims will have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

Results of Operations for the Year Ended December 31, 2013 Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2012

Sales, net for the years December 31, 2013 and 2012 were $25,990,228 and $21,352,691, respectively, an increase of $4,637,537 or approximately 21.7%. The increase in sales is primarily attributable to our ability to immediately and efficiently deploy the gross proceeds from the Private Placement received on October 29, 2013 and the proceeds from the indebtedness we incurred during the third quarter to optimize our inventory levels to satisfy increased demand for our products, in particular increased sales to new and other existing distributors, wholesale customers and increased direct to consumer sales. Sales, net to our largest customer for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were $3,847,310 and $4,301,339, respectively, or approximately 14.8% and 20.1% of net sales, respectively. We have experienced interest for electronic cigarettes among big box retailers, who have contacted us and requested proposals and plan-o-grams. We have also experienced an increase in retail demand for our electronic cigarette products through our direct to consumer sales efforts. Direct to consumer sales are more profitable for us and carry much higher gross margins than products sold through re-sellers. We expect direct to consumer sales demand will continue to grow, however we believe that sales through re-sellers will be an increasingly large part of our sales channel mix.

Cost of goods sold for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $16,300,333 and $13,225,008, respectively, an increase of $3,075,325, or 23.3%. The increase is primarily due to the increase in sales volume and product mix. Our gross margins decreased to 37.3% from 38.1% due to the change in the product mix.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were $6,464,969 and $6,865,633, a decrease of $400,664 or 5.8%. The decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in professional and consulting fees of $878,824 as a result of decreased legal fees due to settlements and the stay of the litigation matters, the hiring of personnel to fulfill responsibilities previously outsourced, and decrease merchant service and bank fees of $214,214; net of increases in salaries and related benefits of $552,806 attributable to increased compensation related to sales person commissions due to the increase in sales and the hiring of our president, increase business insurance expense of $219,495 due to the increase in insurance limits on higher sales and increased stock-based compensation expense of $89,150 primarily due to the issuance of 20,000 shares of common stock pursuant to a consultancy agreement (since terminated effective June 2013).

Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were $2,264,807 and $3,559,616, respectively, a decrease of $1,294,809 or 36.4%. As a percentage of sales advertising expense decreased to 8.7% for the year ended December 31, 2013 from 16.7% for the year ended December 31, 2012. During the year ended December 31, 2013, we decreased our Internet advertising and print

advertising campaigns, and increased our new television direct marketing campaign for our Alternacig brand and we continued various other advertising campaigns. Our advertising efforts have created effective brand awareness and we expect to continue to leverage and increase our brand presence through our distribution channels with an increase spend in effective advertising campaigns in the year ahead.

Other expense for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $683,558 and $89,347, respectively, an increase of $594,211. Induced conversion expense for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $299,577 and $0, respectively. The expense was related to the reduction in the conversion price for the $350,000 Senior Convertible Notes and $75,000 Senior Convertible Notes in order to induce the holders to convert the notes. Interest expense for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $383,981 and $89,347, respectively, an increase of $294,633 or 329.8%. The increase was attributable to the interest and amortization of debt discount incurred on the 2013 $500,000 Senior Convertible Note issued in January 2013 and the $350,000 Senior Convertible Notes issued in July 2013; and interest expense on the $300,000 Senior Convertible Notes, as amended, the $50,000 Senior Convertible Note, as amended, the Senior Note, as amended, issued in the second and third quarters of 2012, the $75,000 Senior Convertible Notes issued in July 2013 and the $750,000 Term Loan and Factoring Facility entered into in August 2013 (reference is made to Notes 5 and 8 of the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report for a description of these debt instruments).

Income tax benefit for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $524,791 and $465,941, respectively, an increase of $58,850 or 12.6%. The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2013 differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 34% primarily due to release of the net deferred tax asset valuation allowance, based on the weight of the available evidence that it is more likely than not that all of the net deferred tax assets will be realized in the future and certain permanent differences between tax reporting purposes and financial reporting purposes. The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2012 differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 34% primarily due to an under accrual of state income taxes from prior years and certain permanent differences between tax reporting purposes and financial reporting purposes.

Net income (loss) for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $801,352 and ($1,920,972), respectively, an increase of $2,722,324 as a result of the items discussed above.

We are not aware of any factors that are reasonably likely to adversely affect liquidity trends, other than those factors summarized under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” and described below. We are not involved in any hedging activities and had no forward exchange contracts outstanding at December 31, 2013. In the ordinary course of business we enter into purchase commitments by issuing purchase orders, which may or may not requires vendor deposits. These transactions are recognized in our consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP.

Our liquidity and capital resources have increased significantly as a result of the net proceeds of approximately $9.1 million from the Private Placement, the extinguishment of approximately 1.7 million of senior convertible notes as a result of their conversion in full into common stock in conjunction with completion of the Private Placement, and operating income we incurred during the year ended December 31 2013. At December 31, 2013, we had working capital of $11,657,615 compared to $325,836 at December 31, 2012, an increase of $11,331,779. The Company intends to use the proceeds from the Private Placement for general working capital purposes.

Our net cash used in operating activities was $4,120,152 and $1,020,758 for the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, an increase of $3,099,395. Our net cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2013 resulted primarily from increases in inventory to meet future customer demand, increases in accounts receivable and prepaid expenses as a result of increased volume, and decreases in accounts payable, due from merchant credit card processor and customer deposits which are attributable to our efforts to increase sales and accommodate anticipated future sales growth.

Our net cash used in investing activities was $14,779 and $9,318 for the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, for purchases of property and equipment.

Our net cash provided by financing activities was $10,528,738 and $850,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, an increase of $9,678,738. These financing activities relate to the Company’s sale of approximately $9.1 million of common stock in the Private Place, proceeds from the 2013 $500,000 Senior Convertible Note issued in January 2013, proceeds from the $350,000 Senior Convertible Notes and the $75,000 Senior Convertible Note issued in July 2013, and the $750,000 Term Loan and the Factoring Facility entered into in August 2013 and proceeds from the exercise of stock options net of principle repayments of senior note payable to stockholder, principle repayments of the Term Loan and full repayment of all borrowings under the Factoring Facility. All of the Company’s $1,704,487 principal amount of Senior Convertible Notes, including those referenced in the preceding sentence, were converted in full into shares of common stock of the Company in conjunction with completion of the Private Placement on October 29, 2013 and cease to be outstanding.

The Factoring Facility is governed by a Factoring Agreement and has an initial term of one year (expiring in august 2014) and automatically renews from month to month thereafter subject to the Company terminating it earlier upon at least 15 business days’ advance written notice provided that all obligations are paid (including a termination fee, if applicable, as specified in the Factoring Agreement). The Factoring Facility is secured by a security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets. Under the terms of the Factoring Agreement, the lender may, at its sole discretion, purchase certain of the Company’s eligible accounts receivable. Upon any acquisition of an account receivable, the lender will advance to the Company up to 50% of the face amount of the account receivable. Each account receivable purchased by the lender will be subject to a factoring fee of 1% of the gross face amount of such purchased account for each 30 day period (or part thereof) the purchased account remains unpaid. The lender will generally have full recourse against the Company in the event of nonpayment of any such purchased account.

The Factoring Agreement contains covenants and provisions relating to events of default that are customary for agreements of this type. The failure to satisfy covenants under the Factoring Agreement or the occurrence of other specified events that constitute an event of default could result in the termination of the Factoring Facility and/or the acceleration of the repayment obligations of the Company.

The Term Loan is governed by a Term Agreement and matures on August 15, 2014 (or earlier generally upon termination of the Factoring Agreement), is payable from the Company’s and Smoke Anywhere USA’s current and future merchant credit card receivables at the annual rate of 16% subject to the lender retaining a daily fixed amount of $3,346 from the daily collection of the merchant credit card receivables and is secured by a security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets.

The Term Agreement contains covenants that are customary for agreements of this type. The failure to satisfy covenants under the Term Agreement or the occurrence of other specified events that constitute an event of default could result in the termination of the Term Agreement (as well as the Factoring Agreement) and/or the acceleration of the repayment of the Term Loan and the other obligations of the Company (including the Factoring Facility). The Term Agreement contains provisions relating to events of default that are customary for agreements of this type.

In the ordinary course of our business, we enter in to purchase orders for components and finished goods, which may or may not require vendor deposits and may or may not be cancellable by either party. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, we had $782,363 and $279,062 in vendor deposits, respectively, which are included in prepaid expenses on the consolidated balance sheets included elsewhere in this report. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, we do not have any material financial guarantees or other contractual commitments that are reasonably likely to have an adverse effect on liquidity.

Although we can provide no assurances, we believe our cash on hand and anticipated cash flow from operations will provide sufficient liquidity and capital resources to fund our business for at least the next twelve months. At December 31, 2013, we had working capital of $11,657,615. In the event we

experience liquidity and capital resources constraints because of unanticipated operating losses, greater than anticipated sales growth or otherwise, we may need to raise additional capital in the form of equity and/or debt financing. If such additional capital is not available on terms acceptable to us or at all then we may need to curtail our operations and/or take additional measures to conserve and manage our liquidity and capital resources, any of which would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We are subject to the legal proceedings described in “Item 3. Legal Proceedings” of this report. We believe that any ultimate liability resulting from such legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Neither inflation nor changing prices for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 had a material impact on our operations.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board, the Emerging Issues Task Force and the SEC have issued certain accounting standards, updates and regulations as of December 31, 2013 that will become effective in subsequent periods; however, management of the Company does not believe that any of those standards, updates or regulations would have significantly affected the Company’s financial accounting measures or disclosures had they been in effect during 2013 or 2012, and it does not believe that any of them will have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements at the time they become effective.

The information required by this Item 8 is incorporated by reference herein from “Item 15. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules” of this report.

Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer (who serves as principal financial and accounting officer) have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of December 31, 2013. Based on this evaluation, the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer have concluded that, as of that date, disclosure controls and procedures required by paragraph (b) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15, were effective.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control system is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements.

Our internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect transactions and dispositions of assets, provide reasonable assurances that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and the directors, and provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

An internal control material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the financial statements will not be prevented or detected.

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal accounting officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, and concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting were effective as of December 31, 2013. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated 1992 Framework, which consists of five interrelated components derived from the way management runs a business. These five components are: (i) control environment, (ii) risk assessment, (iii) control activities, (iv) information and communication and (v) monitoring.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially effect, our internal control over financial reporting.

As of the date of this report, our Board of Directors has not established our annual performance based bonus program for our named executive officers. In February 2014, our Board of Directors approved discretionary cash bonuses for 2013 to our named executive officers in the amounts shown in the foregoing Summary Compensation Table.

The following table provides information with respect to outstanding stock option awards for shares of our common stock classified as exercisable and unexercisable as of December 31, 2013 for the named executive officers.

The following table provides information as of December 31, 2013 with respect to our Equity Incentive Plan, which was duly adopted by our stockholders on November 24, 2009. There are 1,800,000 shares of our common stock reserved for issuance under our Equity Incentive Plan (after giving effect to the reduction of the number of shares reserved and available for issuance thereunder and the 1-for-5 reverse stock split, each as implemented in accordance with the Purchase Agreement governing the Private Placement).

The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of the date of this report by:

Beneficial ownership and percentage ownership are determined in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC and include voting or investment power with respect to shares of stock. This information does not necessarily indicate beneficial ownership for any other purpose. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, shares of common stock subject to warrants, options and other convertible securities held by that person that are currently convertible or exercisable, or convertible or exercisable within 60 days of the date of this report are deemed outstanding. Such shares, however, are not deemed outstanding for the purposes of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. The percentage of beneficial ownership is based on 16,614,528 shares of common stock outstanding on the date of this report. Unless otherwise indicated and subject to community property laws where applicable, we believe that all persons named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock beneficially owned by them. Unless otherwise indicated, the address for each person is our address at 3001 Griffin Road, Dania Beach, Florida 33312.

Other than employment agreements with our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Operating Officer and our President described above under “Item 11. Executive Compensation—Executive Compensation—Arrangements with Named Executive Officers”, the following is a description of transactions since January 1, 2011, to which we have been a party in which:

On June 19, 2012, the Company entered into securities purchase agreements with Kevin Frija, its Chief Executive Officer, Harlan Press, its Chief Financial Officer, and Doron Ziv, a greater than 10% stockholder of the Company, pursuant to which Messrs. Frija, Press and Ziv purchased from the Company (i) $300,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s senior convertible notes (the “$300,000 Senior Convertible Notes”) and (ii) common stock purchase warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 9,303 shares of the Company’s common stock.

The $300,000 Senior Convertible Notes bear interest at 18% per annum, provides for cash interest payments on a monthly basis, mature on June 18, 2015, are redeemable at the option of the holders at any time after June 18, 2013 (such date having been extended as described below) subject to certain limitations, are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at the option of the holders at an initial conversion price of $1.065 per share (which represents 110% of the 30-day weighted average closing price per share of the Company’s common stock, as reported on the OTC Bulletin Board, preceding June 19, 2012) subject to certain anti-dilution protection and are senior unsecured obligations of the Company.

On November 13, 2012, the Company and the above named holders of the $300,000 Senior Convertible Notes amended the Notes to extend their redemption provision at the option of the holders from any time after June 18, 2013 to any time after June 18, 2014.

The Company paid aggregate interest of $28,997 from issuance through December 31, 2012 and $48,674 during 2013 on the $300,000 Senior Convertible Notes until they were converted in full into shares of the Company’s common stock and fully extinguished in conjunction with completion of the Private Placement on October 29, 2013. The Company did not pay any principal on the $300,000 Senior Convertible Notes in 2012 or 2013 prior to or in connection with their conversion and extinguishment.

On September 28, 2012, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with Kevin Frija, its Chief Executive Officer, pursuant to which Mr. Frija purchased from the Company (i) a $50,000 principal amount senior convertible note of the Company (the “$50,000 Senior Convertible Note”) and (ii) common stock purchase warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,374 shares of the Company’s common stock.

The $50,000 Senior Convertible Note bears interest at 18% per annum, provides for cash interest payments on a monthly basis, matures on September 28, 2015, is redeemable at the option of the holder at any time after September 27, 2013 (such date having been extended as described below) subject to certain limitations, is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at the option of the holder at an initial conversion price of $1.20 per share (which represents 110% of the 30-day weighted average closing price per share of the Company’s common stock, as reported on the OTC Bulletin Board, preceding September 27, 2012) subject to certain anti-dilution protection and is a senior unsecured obligation of the Company.

On November 13, 2012, the Company and the above named holder of the $50,000 Senior Convertible Note amended the Note to extend its redemption provision at the option of the holder from any time after September 27, 2013 to any time after September 27, 2014.

The Company paid aggregate interest of $2,342 from issuance through December 31, 2012 and $8,113 during 2013 on the $50,000 Senior Convertible Note until it was converted in full into shares of the Company’s common stock and fully extinguished in conjunction with completion of the Private Placement on October 29, 2013. The Company did not pay any principal on the $50,000 Senior Convertible Note in 2012 or 2013 prior to or in connection with its conversion and extinguishment.

The $300,000 Senior Convertible Notes and the $50,000 Senior Convertible Note did not restrict the Company’s ability to incur future indebtedness.

The Senior Note bears interest at 24% per annum, provides for cash interest payments on a monthly basis, is a senior unsecured obligation of the Company, and matures at the discretion of the Company on the earlier of (x) the date on which the Company consummates a single or series of related financings from which it receives net proceeds in excess of 125% of the initial principal amount of the Senior Note or (y) January 8, 2014 (such date having been extended as described below).

On November 13, 2012, the Company and the above named holder of the $500,000 Senior Note amended the note to extend its maturity date for payment from January 8, 2013 to January 8, 2014. On April 30, 2013, the Company and the above named holder of the Senior Note further amended the Note to provide for cash principal and interest payments on a weekly basis, extend the maturity date for payment to April 22, 2016 and make the Note convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at the option of the holder at an initial conversion price of $2.57 per share (which represents 110% of the 30-day weighted average closing price per share of the Company’s common stock, as reported on the OTC Bulletin Board, preceding April 30, 2013) subject to certain anti-dilution protection.

The Company paid aggregate interest of $57,863 from issuance through December 31, 2012 and $106,800 during 2013 on the Senior Note until it was converted in full into shares of the Company’s common stock and fully extinguished in conjunction with completion of the Private Placement on October 29, 2013. The Company paid aggregate principal of $70,513 on the Senior Note in 2013 prior to its conversion and extinguishment.

The Senior Note does not restrict the Company’s ability to incur future indebtedness.

On December 12, 2012, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Christopher Santi to serve as its Chief Operating Officer pursuant to which Mr. Santi will be employed as Chief Operating Officer of the Company for a term that shall begin on December 12, 2012, and, unless sooner terminated as provided therein, shall end on December 11, 2015; provided that such term of employment shall automatically extend for successive one-year periods unless either party gives at least six months’ advance written notice of its intention not to extend the term of employment.

In addition, Mr. Santi will receive a 10-year option to purchase up to 20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.25, vesting monthly at the rate of 555.6 per month. Mr. Santi’ employment agreement also contains term and post-termination non-solicitation, confidentiality and non-competition covenants.

On July 9, 2013, the Company entered into securities purchase agreements with, among others, Ralph Frija, the father of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer Kevin Frija and a less than 5% stockholder of the Company and Philip Holman, the father of the Company’s President Jeffrey Holman and a less than 5% stockholder of the Company, pursuant to which (x) Mr. Frija purchased a senior convertible note from the Company in the principal amount of $200,000 and a common stock purchase warrant to purchase up to 1,927 shares of the Company’s common stock (which number of shares represents the quotient obtained by dividing (x) $10,000 (5% of the $200,000 principal amount of the senior convertible mote) by (y) $5.19 (the 30-day weighted average closing price per share of the Company’s common stock, as reported on the OTC Bulletin Board, preceding July 9, 2013)) at an initial exercise price of $5.71 per share and (y) Mr. Holman purchased a senior convertible note of the Company in the principal amount of $100,000 and a common stock purchase warrant to purchase up to 964 shares of the Company’s common stock (which number of shares represents the quotient obtained by dividing (x) $5,000 (5% of the $100,000 principal amount of the Convertible Note) by (y) $5.19 (the 30-day weighted average closing price per share of the Company’s common stock, as reported on the OTC Bulletin Board, preceding July 9, 2013)) at an initial exercise price of $5.71 per share.

These senior convertible notes issued on July 9, 2013 bear interest at 18% per annum, provide for cash interest payments on a monthly basis, mature on July 8, 2016, are redeemable at the option of the holders at any time after July 8, 2014, subject to certain limitations, are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at the option of the holders at an initial conversion price of $5.71 per share (which represents 110% of the 30-day weighted average closing price per share of the Company’s common stock, as reported on the OTC Bulletin Board, preceding July, 9, 2013) subject to certain anti-dilution protection and are senior unsecured obligations of the Company.

The Company paid aggregate interest of $16,126 on these senior convertible notes during 2013 until they were converted in full into shares of the Company’s common stock and fully extinguished in conjunction with completion of the Private Placement on October 29, 2013. The Company did not pay any principal on these senior convertible notes prior to or in connection with their conversion and extinguishment.

We utilized the services of Ingear, Inc., an entity that is owned 50% by our Chief Executive Officer. Ingear, Inc. performed fulfillment services and leasing of warehouse space to us prior to our move to new facilities in the second quarter of 2011. Amounts paid to Ingear, Inc. for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 were $0 and $105,000, respectively.

Mr. Adam Frija, a greater than 5% stockholder of our company, serves as our director of licensing and business development for which he is paid $96,000 per year. He is the brother of Mr. Kevin Frija, our Chief Executive Officer and sole director.

Effective January 1, 2012, Mr. Jeffrey Holman, Mr. Isaac Galazan and Mr. Doron Ziv became at-will employees of our company at an annual rate of $78,000 per person. Messrs. Holman, Galazan and Ziv are directors of Smoke Anywhere and greater than 5% stockholders of our company. Included in accrued expenses payable on the consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2012 and 2011 included elsewhere in this report are liabilities of approximately $4,350 and $0, respectively, due and owing to each Messsrs. Holman and Galazan for payroll earned but voluntarily deferred. Effective February 19, 2013, Mr. Holman entered into an employment agreement with the Company to serve as our President at an annualized base salary of $182,000 during the two-year term of the agreement. Effective February 19, 2013, Mr. Ziv’s annual rate of compensation was increased to $104,000.

On October 29, 2013, Kevin Frija, our Chief Executive Officer, Jeffrey Holman, our President, Harlan Press, our Chief Financial Officer, Doron Ziv, a member of our board of directors, and Isaac Galazan, a director of our operating subsidiary Smoke Anywhere, purchased 20,000, 40,000, 20,000, 20,000 and 17,167 shares of our common stock, respectively, at $3.00 per share in the Private Placement.

Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of the board of directors. Our board of directors is currently comprised of three members, Messrs. Frija, Holman and Ziv. Because of their relationships with us, none of them are “independent” under the rules of any national securities exchange or Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act.

Under the Purchase Agreement governing the Private Placement, we are required on or before April 27, 2014 to reconstitute our board so that as so reconstituted, the board will consist of not less than five members, a majority of whom are each required to qualify as an “independent director” as defined in NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5605(a)(2) and related NASDAQ interpretative guidance. Under the Purchase Agreement, so long as the SSF Investors beneficially own at least 50% of the shares of our common stock purchased by them in the Private Placement, the SSF Investors have the right to appoint one member to our board of directors who qualifies as an “independent director” as defined by such rule and guidance.

In addition, under the Purchase Agreement, we are required as soon as reasonably practicable but not later than July 29, 2014 to list our common stock on The NASDAQ Capital Market and up until such time as the listing is accomplished we are required to comply with all NASDAQ rules (other than NASDAQ’s board composition, board committee, minimum bid price and similar listing requirements), such as holding annual meetings and the timely filing of proxy statements.

(b) Exhibits. The following exhibits are filed herewith or incorporated herein by reference.

Each management contract or compensation plan or arrangement required to be filed as an exhibit to this report pursuant to Item 15 is listed in exhibits 10.1, 10.3, 10.4, 10.5, 10.6, 10.16, 10.18, 10.19 and 10.20.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Vapor Corp. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity (deficiency) and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Vapor Corp. as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Vapor Corp. (the “Company”) is the holding company for its wholly owned subsidiary Smoke Anywhere U.S.A., Inc. (“Smoke”). The Company designs, markets and distributes electronic cigarettes, vaporizers, e-liquids and accessories under the Fifty-One^® (also known as Smoke 51), Krave^®, VaporX^®, Alternacig^®, EZ Smoker^®, Green Puffer^®, Americig^®, Fumaré™, Hookah Stix^® and Smoke Star^® brands. “Electronic cigarettes” or “e-cigarettes,” designed to look like traditional cigarettes, are battery-powered products that enable users to inhale nicotine vapor without smoke, tar, ash, or carbon monoxide.

The Company was originally incorporated as Consolidated Mining International, Inc. in 1985 as a Nevada corporation, and the Company changed its name in 1987 to Miller Diversified Corporation whereupon the Company operated in the commercial cattle feeding business until October 31, 2003 when the Company sold substantially all of its assets and became a discontinued operation. On November 5, 2009, the Company acquired Smoke Anywhere USA, Inc., a distributor of electronic cigarettes, in a reverse triangular merger. As a result of the merger, Smoke Anywhere USA, Inc. became the sole operating business. On January 7, 2010, the Company changed its name to Vapor Corp.

The Company reincorporated to the State of Delaware from the State of Nevada effective on December 31, 2013.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for financial information and with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

Effective on December 27, 2013, the Company effected a reverse stock split of its common stock at a ratio of 1-for-5. No fractional shares of common stock were issued, and no cash or other consideration were paid as a result of the reverse stock split. Instead, the Company issued one whole share of post-reverse stock split common stock in lieu of each fractional share of common stock. As a result of the reverse stock split, the Company’s share capital was reduced to 51,000,000 shares from 251,000,000 shares, of which 50,000,000 shares are common stock and 1,000,000 shares are “blank check” preferred stock.

The reverse stock split was effected in accordance with the Company’s obligation to effect a reverse stock split of its shares of common stock not later than December 28, 2013, in connection with the Company’s completion of a private placement of 3,333,338 shares of common stock at a per share price of $3.00 for gross proceeds of $10 million, which closed on October 29, 2013 (as described below under “Private Placement of Common Stock”).

All references in these notes and in the related consolidated financial statements to number of shares, price per share and weighted average number of shares outstanding of common stock prior to the reverse stock split (including the share capital decrease) have been adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split (including the share capital decrease) on a retroactive basis, unless otherwise noted.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany transactions and balances were eliminated.

Certain amounts in the prior year have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on the Company’s previously reported results of operations and financial position.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of net revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These estimates and assumptions include allowances, reserves and write-downs of receivables and inventory, valuing equity securities, derivative instruments, hybrid instruments, share-based payment arrangements, deferred taxes and related valuation allowances. Certain of our estimates could be affected by external conditions, including those unique to our industry, and general economic conditions. It is possible that these external factors could have an effect on our estimates that could cause actual results to differ from our estimates. The Company re-evaluates all of its accounting estimates at least quarterly based on these conditions and records adjustments when necessary.

The Company recognizes revenue from product sales or services rendered when the following four revenue recognition criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the selling price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.

Product sales and shipping revenues, net of promotional discounts, rebates, and return allowances, are recorded when the products are shipped, title passes to customers and collection is reasonably assured. Retail sales to customers are made pursuant to a sales contract that provides for transfer of both title and risk of loss upon the Company’s delivery to the carrier. Return allowances, which reduce product revenue, are estimated using historical experience. Revenue from product sales and services rendered is recorded net of sales and consumption taxes.

The Company periodically provides incentive offers to its customers to encourage purchases. Such offers include current discount offers, such as percentage discounts off current purchases, inducement offers, such as offers for future discounts subject to a minimum current purchase, and other similar offers. Current discount offers, when accepted by the Company’s customers, are treated as a reduction to the purchase price of the related transaction, while inducement offers, when accepted by its customers, are treated as a reduction to the purchase price of the related transaction based on estimated future redemption rates. Redemption rates are estimated using the Company’s historical experience for similar inducement offers. The Company reports sales, net of current discount offers and inducement offers on its consolidated statements of operations.

The Company policy is to provide free standard shipping and handling for most orders shipped during the year. Shipping and handling costs incurred are recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses. Such amounts aggregated $658,586 and $619,662 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 respectively.

In certain circumstances, shipping and handling costs are charged to the customer and recognized in net sales. The amounts recognized for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were $129,761 and $281,842, respectively.

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. For financial statement purposes, investments in money market funds are considered a cash equivalent and are included in cash and cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents at high credit quality federally insured financial institutions, with balances, at times, in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation’s insurance coverage limit of $250,000 per federally insured financial institution. Management believes that the financial institutions that hold the Company’s deposits are financially sound and, therefore, pose a minimum credit risk. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company did not hold cash equivalents.

Accounts receivable, net is stated at the amount the Company expects to collect. The Company provides a provision for allowances that includes returns, allowances and doubtful accounts equal to the estimated uncollectible amounts. The Company estimates its provision for allowances based on historical collection experience and a review of the current status of trade accounts receivable. It is reasonably possible that the Company’s estimate of the provision for allowances will change.

Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the expected useful life of the respective asset, after the asset is placed in service. The Company generally uses the following depreciable lives for its major classifications of property and equipment:

The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. In connection with this review, the Company also reevaluates the depreciable lives for these assets. The Company assesses recoverability by determining whether the net book value of the related asset will be recovered through the projected undiscounted future cash flows of the asset. If the Company determines that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable, it measures any impairment based on the projected future discounted cash flows as compared to the asset’s carrying value. Through December 31, 2013, the Company has not recorded any impairment charges on its long-lived assets.

The Company’s limited lifetime warranty policy generally allows its end users and retailers to return defective purchased rechargeable products in exchange for new products. The Company estimates a reserve for warranty liability and records that reserve amount as a reduction of revenues and as an accrued expense on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The warranty claims and expense was not deemed material for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740.”) Under this method, income tax expense is recognized as the amount of: (i) taxes payable or refundable for the current year and (ii) deferred tax consequences of temporary difference resulting from matters that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statement or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if based on the weight of available evidence it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Company includes product development expenses relating to the commercialization of new products which are expensed as incurred as part of operating expenses. Product development expenses for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were approximately $174,000 and $159,000, respectively.

The Company applies the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” (“ASC 820”). The Company’s short term financial instruments include cash, due from merchant credit card processors, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, each of which approximate their fair values based upon their short term nature. The Company’s other financial instruments include notes payable obligations. The carrying value of these instruments approximate fair value, as they bear terms and conditions comparable to market, for obligations with similar terms and maturities.

ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value: Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 – quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active market or inputs that are observable; and Level 3 – inputs that are unobservable.

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under ASC 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). These standards define a fair value based method of accounting for stock-based compensation. In accordance with ASC Topic 718, the cost of stock-based compensation is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the vesting period. The value of the stock-based award is determined using the Black-Scholes-Merton valuation model, whereby compensation cost is the fair value of the award as determined by the valuation model at the grant date or other measurement date. The resulting amount is charged to expense on the straight-line basis over the period in which the Company expects to receive the benefit, which is generally the vesting period. The Company considers many factors when estimating expected forfeitures, including types of awards, employee class, and historical experience.

Due from merchant credit card processor represents monies held by the Company’s credit card processors. The funds are being held by the merchant credit card processors pending satisfaction of their hold requirements and expiration of charge backs/refunds from customers.

During the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company incurred $11,284 and $11,451, respectively of depreciation expense.

On August 8, 2013, the Company and Smoke entered into an accounts receivable factoring facility (the “Factoring Facility”) with Entrepreneur Growth Capital, LLC (the “Lender”) pursuant to an Invoice Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated August 8, 2013, by and among them (the “Factoring Agreement”).

The Factoring Facility has an initial term of one year and automatically renews from month to month thereafter subject to the Company terminating it earlier upon at least 15 business days’ advance written notice provided that all obligations are paid (including a termination fee, if applicable, as specified in the Factoring Agreement). The Factoring Facility is secured by a security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets. Under the terms of the Factoring Agreement, the Lender may, at its sole discretion, purchase certain of the Company’s eligible accounts receivable. Upon any acquisition of an account receivable, the Lender will advance to the Company up to 50% of the face amount of the account receivable. Each account receivable purchased by the Lender will be subject to a factoring fee of 1% of the gross face amount of such purchased account for each 30 day period (or part thereof) the purchased account remains unpaid. The Lender will generally have full recourse against the Company in the event of nonpayment of any such purchased account.

During the year ended December 31, 2013 gross borrowings under the Factoring Facility were $407,888, all of which were repaid as of September 30, 2013. At December 31, 2013 the Company had no borrowings outstanding under the Factoring Facility.

On August 16, 2013, the Company and Smoke entered into a $750,000 term loan (the “Term Loan”) with the Lender pursuant to a Credit Card Receivables Advance Agreement, dated August 16, 2013, by and among them (the “Term Agreement”).

The Term Loan matures on August 15, 2014 (or earlier generally upon termination of the Factoring Agreement), is payable from the Company’s and Smoke’s current and future merchant credit card receivables at the annual rate of 16% subject to the Lender retaining a daily fixed amount of $3,346 from the daily collection of the merchant credit card receivables and is secured by a security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets. The Company used the proceeds of the Term Loan for general working capital purposes.

At December 31, 2013 the Company had $478,847 of borrowings outstanding under the Term Loan. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company recorded $44,769 in interest expense for the Term Loan and this amount is included in interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have personally guaranteed performance of certain of the Company’s obligations under the Factoring Agreement and the Term Agreement. In consideration of the Company’s Chief Financial Officer providing the personal guarantee, the Company has agreed to amend his employment agreement as described in Note 9.

The Company’s amended and restated articles of incorporation authorizes the Company’s Board of Directors to issue up to 1,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock, having a $.001 par value, in one or more series without stockholder approval. Each such series of preferred stock may have such number of shares, designations, preferences, voting powers, qualifications, and special or relative rights or privileges as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, no shares of preferred stock were issued or outstanding.

On March 15 and June 15, 2013, the Company issued a total of 20,000 shares of common stock, pursuant to a consultancy agreement dated March 4, 2013. The Company terminated this consultancy agreement effective June 2013. Prior to termination of the agreement, the Company had agreed to issue on a quarterly basis common stock as compensation for services provided thereunder. The Company determined that the fair value of the common stock issued was more readily determinable than the fair value of the services provided. Accordingly, the Company recorded the fair market value of the stock as compensation expense. The Company valued the shares issued on March 15 and June 15, 2013 shares at $29,500 and $57,500, respectively, based on closing price per share of the Company’s common stock, as reported on the OTC Bulletin Board, on March 15 and June 15, 2013, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expense in the amount of $87,000, which is included as part of selling, general and administrative expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

On October 22, 2013, the Company entered into a purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with various institutional and individual accredited investors and certain of its officers and directors to raise gross proceeds of $10 million in a private placement of 3,333,338 shares of its common stock at a per share price of $3.00 (the “Private Placement”).

On October 29, 2013, the Company completed the Private Placement. The Company received net proceeds from the Private Placement of approximately $9.1 million, after paying placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses, which the Company will use to fund its growth initiatives and for working capital purposes.

Roth Capital Partners, LLC acted as the exclusive placement agent for the Private Placement and, as compensation therefor, the Company paid Roth Capital Partners, LLC placement agent fees of approximately $579,000 and issued to them a common stock purchase warrant to purchase up to 192,970 shares of the Company’s common stock at an initial exercise price of $3.30 per share. The warrant is immediately exercisable and expires on October 28, 2018. The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable under the warrant are subject to anti-dilutive adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and similar transactions. At any time the warrant may be exercised by means of a “cashless exercise” and the Company will not receive any proceeds at such time.

In conjunction with completion of the Private Placement, on October 29, 2013, the holders of the Company’s approximately $1.7 million of outstanding senior convertible notes, some of whom are officers and directors of the Company, converted in full all of these senior convertible notes into approximately 780,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, whereupon all of these senior convertible notes were fully extinguished and cease to be outstanding. See Note 8.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, concomitantly with completion of the Private Placement, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement with the investors (other than its participating officers and directors), pursuant to which the Company filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-1 (“Form S-1 Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) registering for resale by the investors (other than the Company’s participating officers and directors) the shares of Company common stock purchased by them in the Private Placement. The Form S-1 Registration Statement was declared effective by the SEC on January 27, 2014. If the Form S-1 Registration Statement is not effective for resales for more than 20 consecutive days or more than 45 days in any 12 month period during the registration period (i.e., the earlier of the date on which the shares have been sold or are eligible for sale under SEC Rule 144 without restriction), the Company is required to pay the investors (other than the Company’s participating officers and directors) liquidated damages in cash equal to 1.5% of the aggregate purchase price paid by the investors (other than the Company’s participating officers and directors) for the shares for every 30 days or portion thereof until the default is cured. The liquidated damages could be as much as $144,728 for every 30 days or portion thereof until the default is cured.

All of the warrants issued in conjunction with the convertible notes described in Note 8 and the Private Placement were evaluated in accordance with ASC 815 and were determined to be equity instruments. The Company estimated the fair value of these Warrants using the Black-Scholes-Merton valuation model. The significant assumptions which the Company used to measure their respective fair values included stock prices ranging from $1.00 to $3.50 per share, expected terms of 5 years, volatility ranging from 30.3% to 51.4%, risk free interest rates ranging from 0.71% to 0.90%, and a dividend yield of 0.0%

A summary of warrant activity for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 is presented below:

There are 1,800,000 shares of our common stock reserved for issuance under our Equity Incentive Plan (after giving effect to the reduction of the number of shares reserved and available for issuance thereunder and the 1-for-5 reverse stock split, each as implemented in accordance with the Purchase Agreement governing the Private Placement), which was duly adopted by our stockholders on November 24, 2009. The Plan provides for the granting of incentive stock options to employees, the granting of non-qualified stock options to employees, non-employee directors and consultants, and the granting of restricted stock to employees, non-employee directors and consultants in connection with their retention and/or continued employment by the Company. Options issued under the Plan generally have a ten-year term and generally become exercisable over a four-year period. Shares subject to awards that expire unexercised or are forfeited or terminated will again become available for issuance under the Plan. No participant in the Equity Incentive Plan can receive option grants and/or restricted shares for more than 20% of the total shares subject to the Plan.

During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expense, for the vesting of stock options, of $48,239 and $46,089, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense is included as part of selling, general and administrative expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The amounts relate to the granting of options to employees and consultants to purchase 48,600 shares of the Company’s common stock with an exercise price of $1.875 per share in January 2010 which vest in 4 equal annual installments valued at $46,899; the granting of options to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer to purchase 40,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with an exercise price of $1.00 per share in February 2012 which vest in 36 monthly installments valued at $20,000; the granting of options to employees and consultants to purchase 45,600 shares of the Company’s common stock with an exercise price of $1.15 per share in March 2012 which vest in 4 equal annual installments valued at $25,992; the granting of options to an employee who has since become the Company’s Chief Operating Officer to purchase 20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with an exercise price of $1.15 per share in March 2012 which vest in 4 equal annual installments valued at $11,400; the granting of options to consultants to purchase 30,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with an exercise price of $1.00 per share in September 2012 which vest in 4 equal annual installments valued at $17,850; the granting of options to the Company’s Chief Operating Officer to purchase 20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with an exercise price of $1.25 per share in December 2012 which vest in 36 monthly installments valued at $14,800; the granting of options to an employee to purchase 10,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with an exercise price of $4.35 per share in November 2013 which vest in 3 equal annual installments valued at $25,900; and the granting of options to employees to purchase 31,200 shares of the Company’s common stock with an exercise price of $4.35 per share in November 2013 which vest in 4 equal annual installments valued at $80,808.

As of December 31, 2013, 963,311 common stock options that were granted were vested and 156,189 common stock options were unvested. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the amount of unamortized stock-based compensation expense on unvested stock options granted to employees and consultants was $150,037 and $122,592, respectively. The unamortized amounts will be amortized over the remaining vesting period through September 30, 2016.

The Company accounts for share-based awards exchanged for employee services at the estimated grant date fair value of the award. Compensation expense includes the impact of an estimate for forfeitures for all stock options.

Options outstanding at December 31, 2013 under the various plans are as follows (in thousands):

The Company estimated the fair value of employee stock options using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. The fair value of employee stock options is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the respective awards. The expected term of such stock options represents the average period the stock options are expected to remain outstanding and is based on the expected term calculated using the approach prescribed by SAB 107 for “plain vanilla” options. The expected stock price volatility for the Company’s stock options was determined by examining the historical volatilities for industry peers and using an average of the historical volatilities of the Company’s industry peers as well as the trading history for the Company’s common stock. The Company will continue to analyze the stock price volatility and expected term assumptions as more data for the Company’s common stock and exercise patterns becomes available. The risk-free interest rate assumption is based on the U.S. Treasury instruments whose term was consistent with the expected term of the Company’s stock options. The expected dividend assumption is based on the Company’s history and expectation of dividend payouts. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company’s estimated forfeiture rate utilized ranged from 0.01% to 0.05%.

The fair value of employee stock options was estimated using the following weighted-average assumptions:

A summary of activity under all option Plans for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 is presented below (in thousands, except per share data):

The Company utilizes ASC 260, “Earnings per Share,” (“ASC 260”) to calculate net income or loss per share. Basic earnings and loss per share are computed by dividing the net income or loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options (using the treasury stock method) and the conversion of the Company’s convertible debt and warrants (using the if-converted method). Diluted loss per share excludes the shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options, convertible notes and common stock purchase warrants from the calculation of net loss per share, as their effect is antidilutive.

The following table reconciles the numerator and denominator for the calculation:

The following is a reconciliation of the expected tax expense (benefit) on the U.S. statutory rate to the actual tax expense (benefit) reflected in the accompanying statement of operations:

As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities consisted of the effects of temporary differences attributable to the following:

In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. After consideration of all of the information available, management has determined that a valuation allowance of $0 and $781,077 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, is necessary to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amounts that will more likely than not be realized. Should the factors underlying management’s analysis change, future valuation adjustments to the Company’s net deferred tax assets may be necessary.

At December 31, 2013 the Company had U.S. federal and state net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLS”) of $251,269 and $1,526,482, respectively. At December 31, 2012, the Company had U.S. federal and state NOLs of $1,215,417 and $2,49,630, respectively. These NOLs expire in 2033. Utilization of our NOLS may be subject to annual limitation due to ownership change limitations that may have occurred or that could occur in the future, as required by section 382 of the Internal Revenue Service Code of 1986, as amended, as well as similar state provisions.

As required by the provisions of ASC 740, the Company recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more likely than not threshold, the amount recognized in the consolidated financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority. Differences between tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return and the net benefit recognized and measured pursuant to the interpretation are referred to as “unrecognized benefits.” A liability is recognized (or amount of NOL or amount of tax refundable is reduced) for an unrecognized tax benefit because it represents an enterprise’s potential future obligation to the taxing authority for a tax position that was not recognized as a result of applying the provisions of ASC 740.

If applicable, interest costs and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits are required to be calculated and would be classified as interest and penalties in general and administrative expense in the statement of operations. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, no liability for unrecognized tax benefit was required to be reported. No interest or penalties were recorded during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. The Company does not expect any significant changes in its unrecognized tax benefits in the next year. The Company files U.S. federal and state income tax returns. As of December 31, 2013, the Company’s U.S. and state tax returns remain subject to examination by tax authorities beginning with the tax return filed for the year ended December 31, 2010.

The Company used all of the proceeds from the sales of these securities for working capital purposes.

On July 9, 2012, the Company borrowed $500,000 from Ralph Frija, the father of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer Kevin Frija and a less than 5% stockholder of the Company, pursuant to a senior note (the “Senior Note”).

In conjunction with completion of the Private Placement, on October 29, 2013, the holder of the Senior Note, converted the outstanding balance of $429,487 of the Senior Convertible Note into 166,662 shares of our common stock, whereupon all of these senior convertible notes were fully extinguished and cease to be outstanding.

The Senior Note, as amended, did not restrict the Company’s ability to incur future indebtedness.

On January 29, 2013, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with Robert John Sali, pursuant to which Mr. Sali purchased from the Company (i) a $500,000 principal amount senior convertible note of the Company (the “2013 Convertible Note”) and (ii) common stock purchase warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 8,142 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Warrant”) (which number of shares represents the quotient obtained by dividing (x) $25,000 (5% of the $500,000 principal amount of the 2013 Convertible Note) by (y) $3.07 (the 30-day weighted average closing price per share of the Company’s common stock, as reported on the OTC Bulletin Board, preceding January 29, 2013)). The Company generated aggregate proceeds of $500,000 from the sale of these securities pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement. The Company used such proceeds for working capital purposes.

The Warrant is exercisable at initial exercise price of $3.3775 per share (which represents 110% of the 30-day weighted average closing price per share of the Company’s common stock, as reported on the OTC Bulletin Board, preceding January 29, 2013) subject to certain anti-dilution protection and may be exercised at the option of the holder for cash or on a cashless basis until January 28, 2018.

The Company recorded $10,131 as debt discount on the principal amount of the 2013 Senior Convertible Note issued on January 29, 2013 due to the valuation of the Warrant issued in conjunction therewith.

The agreement expired on September 10, 2010 and the Company has continued to employ Mr. Frija as its Chief Executive Officer on an at-will basis. Mr. Frija also served as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer from October 1, 2009 until February 29, 2012. Effective February 29, 2012, Mr. Frija resigned as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer as a result of the Company’s appointment of Harlan Press as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer as described below.

On February 27, 2012, the Company entered into a new employment agreement with Mr. Frija pursuant to which Mr. Frija will continue being employed as Chief Executive Officer and also be employed as President of the Company for a term that shall begin on January 1, 2012, and, unless sooner terminated as provided therein, shall end on December 31, 2014; provided that such term of employment shall automatically extend for successive one-year periods unless either party gives at least six months’ advance written notice of its intention not to extend the term of employment. Mr. Frija will receive a base salary of $144,000, increasing to $150,000 and $159,000, respectively, for the second and third years of the Agreement. The Company paid Mr. Frija a one-time cash retention bonus in the amount of $10,500 before June 30, 2012. Mr. Frija shall be eligible to participate in the Company’s annual performance based bonus program, as the same may be established from time to time by the Company’s Board of Directors in consultation with Mr. Frija for executive officers of the Company. In addition, the Company may terminate Mr. Frija’s employment at any time, with or without cause (as defined in the employment agreement), and Mr. Frija may terminate his employment with the Company without or for good reason (as defined in the employment agreement), provided that termination by either party is subject to advance written notice and, in most instances, the satisfaction of other conditions. Under the employment agreement, in the event Mr. Frija’s employment is terminated by the Company without cause or by Mr. Frija for good reason, Mr. Frija will be entitled to receive severance benefits equal to three months of his base salary for each year of service. Mr. Frija’s employment agreement also contains term and post-termination non-solicitation, confidentiality and non-competition covenants.

As noted above, effective February 29, 2012, Mr. Harlan Press was appointed as Chief Financial Officer of the Company in connection with his entry into an employment agreement with the Company, the terms and conditions of which are summarized below.

On February 27, 2012, the Company entered into the aforesaid employment agreement with Mr. Press pursuant to which Mr. Press will be employed as Chief Financial Officer of the Company for a term that began on February 29, 2012, and, unless sooner terminated as provided therein, shall end on February 28, 2015; provided that such term of employment shall automatically extend for successive one-year periods unless either party gives at least six months’ advance written notice of its intention not to extend the term of employment. Mr. Press will receive a base salary of $175,000, increasing to $181,000 and $190,000, respectively, for the second and third years of the employment agreement. Mr. Press shall be eligible to participate in the Company’s annual performance based bonus program, as the same may be established from time to time by the Company’s Board of Directors in consultation with Mr. Press for executive officers of the Company.

In addition, the Company may terminate Mr. Press’ employment at any time, with or without cause (as defined in the employment agreement), and Mr. Press may terminate his employment with the Company without or for good reason (as defined in the employment agreement), provided that termination by either party is subject to advance written notice and, in most instances, the satisfaction of other conditions. Under the employment agreement, in the event Mr. Press’ employment is terminated by the Company without cause or by Mr. Press for good reason, Mr. Press will be entitled to receive severance benefits equal to three months of his base salary for each year of service. In addition, Mr. Press will receive a 10-year option to purchase 40,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share, equal to the fair market value and an aggregate grant date fair value of $0.50 per share, vesting monthly at the rate of approximately 1,111 per month. Mr. Press’ employment agreement also contains term and post-termination non-solicitation, confidentiality and non-competition covenants.

In consideration of Mr. Press personally guaranteeing certain of the Company’s obligations under the Factoring Agreement, the Company has agreed to amend Mr. Press’s employment agreement dated February 27, 2012 effective as of the date of the Factoring Agreement as follows: (i) the initial term of employment (through February 28, 2015) shall automatically renew for successive one-year periods so long as Mr. Press’s personal guarantee of the Factoring Agreement remains in full force and effect (provided that the initial term or any renewal term may be terminated (a) upon Mr. Press’s death or (b) by the Company for cause (as defined in the employment agreement) or (c) by Mr. Press either (x) for good reason (as defined in the employment agreement) or (y) without good reason), (ii) if Mr. Press’s personal guarantee of the Factoring Agreement is enforced against him then all of his stock options to the extent then unvested shall automatically vest in full on the date of such enforcement, (iii) the Company may not terminate Mr. Press’s employment for disability or without cause so long as his personal guarantee of the Factoring Agreement remains in full force and effect and (iv) the Company shall indemnify Mr. Press against all losses, claims, expenses and other liabilities of any nature arising out of or relating to enforcement of his personal guarantee of the Factoring Agreement, and such indemnification shall survive until such time Mr. Press has been permanently and unconditionally released from his personal guarantee of the Factoring Agreement.

In addition, the Company may terminate Mr. Santi’s employment at any time, with or without cause (as defined in the employment agreement), and Mr. Santi may terminate his employment with the Company without or for good reason (as defined in the employment agreement), provided that termination by either party is subject to advance written notice and, in most instances, the satisfaction of other conditions. Under the employment agreement, in the event Mr. Santi’s employment is terminated by the Company without cause or by Mr. Santi for good reason, Mr. Santi will be entitled to receive severance benefits equal to two months of his base salary for each year of service. In addition, Mr. Santi will receive a 10-year option to purchase up to 20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.25 per share, equal to the fair market value and an aggregate grant date fair value of $0.74 per share, vesting monthly at the rate of 555.6 per month. Mr. Santi’ employment agreement also contains term and post-termination non-solicitation, confidentiality and non-competition covenants.

On February 19, 2013, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Holman pursuant to which Mr. Holman will be employed as President of the Company for a term that shall begin on February 19, 2013, and, unless sooner terminated as provided therein, shall end on December 31, 2015; provided that such term of employment shall automatically extend for successive one-year periods unless either party gives at least six months’ advance written notice of its intention not to extend the term of employment. Mr. Holman will receive a base salary of $182,000 for the first two years of the employment agreement. Mr. Holman shall be eligible to participate in the Company’s annual performance based bonus program, as the same may be established from time to time by the Company’s Board of Directors in consultation with Mr. Holman for executive officers of the Company.

From time to time the Company may be involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of our business. There were no pending material claims or legal matters as of the date of this report other than one of the two following matters.

At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company has vendor deposits of $782,363 and $279,062, respectively, and vendor deposits are included as a component of prepaid expenses and vendor deposits on the consolidated balance sheets included herewith.

At December 31, 2013 and 2012, accounts receivable balances included a concentration from one customer of an amount greater than 10% of the total net accounts receivable balance ($286,768 from Customer A and $172,210 from Customer B, respectively).

In the first quarter of 2012, the Company began selling electronic cigarettes in the country of Canada exclusively through a Canadian distributor. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had sales in excess of 10% to this Canadian distributor of $3,847,310 and $4,301,339, respectively. No other customer accounted for sales in excess of 10% for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

The Company evaluates events that have occurred after the balance sheet date but before the consolidated financial statements are issued. Based upon the evaluation, the Company did not identify any recognized or non-recognized subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements other than as set forth below.

On February 3, 2014, the Company entered into a consulting agreement (the “Consulting Agreement”) with Knight Global Services, LLC (“Knight Global”) pursuant to which the Company retained Knight Global to assist the Company with increasing awareness of its electronic cigarette brands as well as assisting the Company to expand and diversify its relationships with large retailers and national chains.

Under the terms of the Consulting Agreement, the Company has issued to Mr. Kavanaugh 400,000 shares of its common stock of which 50,000 shares have vested immediately while the remaining 350,000 shares will vest in installments of 50,000 shares per quarterly period beginning on the 90th day following February 3, 2014 and each ensuing quarterly period thereafter so long as the Consulting Agreement has not been terminated and during each quarterly period Knight Global has presented the Company with a minimum of six (6) bona fide opportunities for activities specified in the Consulting Agreement that are intended to increase awareness of the Company’s electronic cigarettes. In addition, during the term of the Consulting Agreement, which is 2 years, and during an 18-month post-termination period, the Company has agreed to pay Knight Global commissions payable in cash equal to 6% of “net sales” (as defined in the Consulting Agreement) of its products to retailers introduced by Knight Global and to retailers with which the Company has existing relationships and with which Knight Global is able, based on its verifiable efforts, to increase net sales of the Company’s products.

Mr. Kavanaugh will join the Company’s Board of Directors within five (5) business after this report is filed with the SEC.

The Consulting Agreement is terminable by the Company between 181 days and 364 days after February 3, 2014 if Knight Global is not performing the consulting services in accordance with the terms of the Consulting Agreement subject to the Company providing Knight Global with written notice of non-performance and Knight Global having a 30-day cure period to cure such non-performance. In the event of such termination, in addition to delivering previously vested shares and commission payments due and owing Knight Global, 50,000 of the unvested shares subject to quarterly vesting as described above shall automatically vest and be delivered by the Company to Mr. Kavanaugh and Knight Global shall be entitled to commission payments during the 18-month post-termination period.

The Consulting Agreement is terminable by Knight Global, at any time, and the Company, after the termination period described in the preceding paragraph, for a material uncured breach of the Consulting Agreement, provided that the terminating party has provided the other party with written notice of material breach and a 30-day cure period (or longer under certain circumstances if the breach is not curable within such 30-day period and such party has initiated curative action within such 30-day period and thereafter diligently and continuously pursues such curative action until the breach has been cured). A breach by either party is not deemed to be material unless it causes economic harm to the other party. If the terminating party desires to terminate the Consulting Agreement after the notice and cure period on the basis that the other party has not cured the breach then the terminating party, within 30 days following expiration of the cure period, is required to initiate arbitration in the Delaware Court of Chancery to determine whether the other party has materially breached the Consulting Agreement.
