Operating Risks:
Limited Operating History, Risks of a New Business Venture:	The Company has limited operating history upon which a Lender may evaluate the Company’s performance. The Company has to date has been involved primarily in organizational and development activities and beta testing of its business and, as a result, has had little revenue. A potential Lender should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by a new enterprise and the high rate of failure of such enterprises. The likelihood of success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties complications and delays encountered in connection with the development of a business in the areas in which the Company intends to operate and in connection with the formation and commencement of operations of a new business in general. There is no history upon which to base any assumption as to the likelihood that the Company will prove successful, and there can be no assurance that the Company will generate significant operating revenues or ever achieve profitable operations.
Competition; Ease of Entry:	Competition in new media industry in which the Company operates is extremely fragmented and diverse, with low barriers to entry. The industry is intensely competitive with respect to customer acquisition, quality, access to key talent and material, and access to channels of distribution. In addition, there are many well-established competitors with substantially greater financial and other resources than the Company and with substantially longer operating histories than the Company.

Business affected by changes in consumer preferences and discretionary spending:	The Company’s success will depend, in part, upon the popularity of its products and its ability to develop new product categories and lines that appeal to consumers and advertisers. Shifts in consumer preferences, the inability to develop new product items that appeal to consumers and advertisers could harm the Company’s business. Also, the Company’s success will depend to a significant extent on discretionary consumer spending, which is influenced by general economic conditions and the availability of discretionary income. Accordingly, the Company may experience declines in revenues during economic downturns or during periods of uncertainty like that which followed the terrorist attacks on the United States and the possibility of further terrorist attacks. Any material decline in the amount of discretionary spending could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s revenues, results of operations, business and financial condition.
Dependence Upon Key Personnel:	The continued service of the Company’s management team and in particular, Daren Hornig, is deemed essential to the Company and the unavailability of Mr. Hornig or any other key member of management could have a material adverse effect upon the continuing business operation of the Company.
Risks Associated with New Media:	New media businesses, particularly businesses which, like the Company, rely on Consumer and advertising spending are often affected by changes in consumer tastes, national, regional and local economic conditions, demographic trends, the cost and availability of labor, purchasing power, and cyclical changes in the availability of creative talent. If the Company is not able to successfully adapt to such changing trends, there will be a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
Investment Risks:
Uncertainty of Prospective Financial Information:	The Company has provided to the prospective Lender certain financial projections and other forward-looking information reflecting the Company’s estimates as to the possible future results of operations of the Company.  Such projections and information are based on a number of assumptions as to future events that are inherently uncertain and subjective.  The Company makes no representation or warranty as to the attainability of these projections or the accuracy or completeness of the assumptions from which they are derived.  The projections were not prepared with a view to public disclosure or compliance with published guidelines of the Securities and Exchange Commission or any state securities commission, or the guidelines established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.  Actual results can be expected to vary from those projected, and such variances may be material and adverse.

 

 

Need for Additional Future Capital:

The proceeds of the Loan are not likely to be sufficient to allow the Company to execute its business plans and additional financing is likely to be necessary and the Company may be unable to execute successfully on its business plans and financial models unless the Company is able to raise additional capital through one or more additional financings.  In such instance, without such additional financing, the Company will likely be unable to undertake its proposed business activities and may be required to curtail its operations.  In the event that the Company is forced to cease doing business, there may be inadequate funds available to satisfy the Company’s obligations to Lender.

A prospective Lender is urged to make an independent examination of all books, records and other documents of the Company.  A prospective Lender should not rely on advice from the Company or any of its employees or agents with respect to judgments relating to an investment in the Company.  A prospective Lender should retain their own professional advisors to review and evaluate the economic, tax and other consequences of an investment in the Company.  The Company will make available upon reasonable notice any other documents or information concerning the Company which a prospective Lender reasonably requests, subject to execution of a confidentiality agreement.  The Company will also make available any appropriate member of management to answer questions which a prospective Lender might have.
