Explanatory Note
On April 30, 2014, Loton, Corp (the “Registrant,” the “Company,” we,” “us” or “our”) filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “SEC”) a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Original Form 8-K”), with respect to our entry into an Agreement and Plan of
Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Loton Acquisition Sub I, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Acquisition Sub”) and
KoKo (Camden) Holdings (US), Inc. (“KoKo Parent”), a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of JJAT Corp. (“JJAT”), a
Delaware corporation wholly-owned by Robert Ellin, the Company’s Executive Chairman, President, Director and controlling shareholder (“Mr.
Ellin”), and his affiliates (the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger, KoKo Parent became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and the
Company’s primary business became that of KoKo Parent and its subsidiaries, KoKo (Camden) Limited, a private limited company registered in
England and Wales (“KoKo UK”) which owns 50% of OBAR Camden Holdings Limited, a private limited company registered in England and
Wales (“OCHL”) which in turn wholly-owns its operating subsidiary OBAR Camden Limited, a private limited company registered in England
and Wales (“OCL”).
In connection with entering into the Merger Agreement, the Company requested and received written accommodation from the SEC
pursuant to Rule 306(c) of Regulation S-X to account for its 2014 fiscal year on a slightly-shortened, 362-day basis, in order to present financial
statements for the Company as a stand-alone shell company prior to its acquisition of 50% of the voting equity of OCHL on April 28, 2014.
OCHL is an operating company that merged with a wholly-owned acquisition subsidiary of the Company on such date, which was two days
prior to the Company’s fiscal year-end of April 30, 2014.
Please refer to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 30, 2014, as amended on Form 8-K/A filed
with the SEC on June 30, 2014 for audited consolidated financial statements of OCHL as of and for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 and
pro forma combined financial information of Loton and OCHL as of April 30, 2014.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 10-K (“Form 10-K”) and other reports filed by the Registrant from time to time with the SEC
(collectively the “Filings”) contain or may contain forward-looking statements and information that are based upon beliefs of, and information
currently available to, the Registrant’s management as well as estimates and assumptions made by the Registrant’s management. When used in
the filings the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” or the negative of these terms
and similar expressions as they relate to the Registrant or the Registrant’s management identify forward-looking statements. Such statements
reflect the current view of the Registrant with respect to future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors
(including the risks contained in the section of this report entitled “Risk Factors”) relating to the Registrant’s industry, the Registrant’s
operations and results of operations and any businesses that may be acquired by the Registrant. Should one or more of these risks or
uncertainties materialize, or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ significantly from those anticipated,
believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned.
Although the Registrant believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, the Registrant cannot
guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of
the United States, the Registrant does not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.

Business
Part I
Loton, Corp was incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 28, 2009 to provide 3D rendering, animation and architectural
visualization services using advanced computer technology to produce photo realistic 3D rendering, walk-through animation and 360 degree
panorama.
On September 9, 2011, Trinad Capital Master Fund, Ltd., a Cayman Island exempted company, (“Trinad Master Fund”), entered into a
Securities Purchase Agreement with Alex Kuznetsov, a shareholder and the sole director and executive officer of the Company (the “Purchase
Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Mr. Kuznetsov sold to Trinad Master Fund an aggregate of 4,000,000 shares of
the Company’s common stock $.001 par value per share, representing 75% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock of the Company as of
October 31, 2011. Trinad Master Fund paid $311,615 for the shares. Trinad Management, LLC (“Trinad Management”) is the investment
manager of Trinad Master Fund. The managing member of Trinad Management is Robert S. Ellin. In accordance with the Purchase Agreement,
effective upon the closing (a) Alex Kuznetsov resigned as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President and sole director, (b) Robert S.
Ellin was appointed as the sole director of the Board to serve until the next annual stockholders meeting and until his successor is duly elected
and qualified, (c) Robert S. Ellin was appointed President, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. He also served as our Chief
Financial Officer from April 26, 2012 until September 30, 2013. Jay Krigsman was also appointed to our Board on April 26, 2012.
On April 28, 2014, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Loton
Acquisition Sub I, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Acquisition Sub”) and KoKo (Camden) Holdings (US), Inc. (“KoKo Parent”), a Delaware
corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of JJAT Corp. (“JJAT”), a Delaware corporation wholly-owned by Robert Ellin, the Company’s Chief
Executive Officer, Director and controlling shareholder (“Mr. Ellin”), and his affiliates (the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger, KoKo Parent
became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and the Company’s primary business became that of KoKo Parent and its subsidiaries,
KoKo (Camden) Limited, a private limited company registered in England and Wales (“KoKo UK”) which owns 50% of OBAR Camden
Holdings Limited, a private limited company registered in England and Wales (“OCHL”) which in turn wholly-owns its operating subsidiary
OBAR Camden Limited, a private limited company registered in England and Wales (“OCL”). Upon the closing of the Merger, pursuant to the
terms of the Merger Agreement, KoKo Parent’s former sole shareholder, JJAT Corp., received 29,000,000 shares of Loton, Corp common stock
(“Company Common Stock”), or approximately 77.2% of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company immediately after
consummation of the Merger Agreement.
Our principal business through the operation of OCHL and its wholly-owned subsidiary OCL, is the operation of the live music venue and
nightclub known as KOKO in Camden, London. KOKO provides live shows, club nights, corporate and other events at KOKO and broadcasted
digitally. The venue has been used to record live performances which have been broadcast to an international audience. OCHL and OCL are
50% co-owned by Olly Bengough, who was our former Chief Executive Officer and Director.
We continue to expand into live music and in February 2015, we formed FestreamTV, which is a new 100% owned subsidiary, which
subsequently changed its name to LiveXLive (“LXL”) in May 2015. LXL’s mission is to aggregate thousands of hours of live music and content
driven by live music through mutually beneficially relationships with the world’s top talent, music companies, festivals and promoters. LXL
plans to showcase professionally produced, innovative, immersive and experiential live broadcasts in HD. Fans will have the opportunity to see
their favorite festivals, concerts and experiences on any screen they choose across all video platforms and devices from mobile to the home.
These fans will be able to view concert experiences from any connected device with exclusive access only LXL brings from the stage to
backstage, inside dressing rooms, and places previously off limits to anyone but VIPs and artists.
Business Objective
The Company’s strategy is to provide the first independent global live music and lifestyle streaming network delivering around the
clock live music to viewers on any connected device as an authentic and experiential platform to grow revenue, earnings and cash flow. LXL
will provide consumers with the opportunity to view the most sought after live music around the globe via any distribution channel on a
24/7/365 basis. The platform will offer the world’s leading music festivals with multi-day and multi-stage coverage, unique concerts, intimate
performances and cutting edge programming.
The LXL network plans to provide compelling and curated content that showcases the entire spectrum of music to include music
inspired fashion, food, and lifestyle content and showcase interviews, back stage access and both fan and artist perspectives. We will extend the
live experience to fans on desktop, laptop, mobile, tablets, consoles, connected TV’s and virtual reality platforms. LXL will feature all genres of
music including rock, pop, indie, alternative, EDM, country and feature major festival headliners as well as emerging artists performing at clubs
and venues around the globe. LXL is also developing key strategic relationships in technology, distribution, advertising, mobile and virtual
reality to augment its network delivery strategy. LXL anticipates generating its revenues from subscription fees from users and from advertising
sales.

In addition, the Company plans to leverage KOKO’s success and brand in live entertainment and relationships with fans, artists and
advertisers to capture originated content, create owned/co-owned branded activity and develop new and complimentary brand extensions and
intellectual property. The Company is seeking capital to drive this process and address present working capital expenditures.
Competition
Competition in the live entertainment industry is intense. We believe that OCL competes primarily on the basis of its ability to deliver
quality music events and provide enhanced fan and artist experiences. We believe that OCL’s primary strengths include:
the quality of service delivered to artists, fans and corporate sponsors;
a track record in producing live music concerts, club nights and corporate events at KOKO; and
•
•
• Artist relationships.
Although we believe that OCL’s products and services currently compete favorably with respect to such factors, we cannot provide any
assurance that OCL can maintain its competitive position against current and potential competitors, especially those with significantly greater
brand recognition, or financial, marketing, support, technical and other resources.
In the markets in which OCL produces music concerts, it faces competition from both promoters and other venue operators. We believe
that barriers to entry into the promotion services business are low and that certain local promoters are increasingly expanding the geographic
scope of their operations.
OCL’s main competitors in the live music industry include all other live music venues in London including without limitation the
Forum, Electric Brixton, the Electric Ballroom, the Village Underground and the Shepherd’s Bush Empire. Some of OCL’s competitors in the
live music industry may have greater financial resources than we do which may enable them to gain a greater competitive advantage in relation
to us.
In markets where OCL currently operates and/or plans to operate a venue, it competes with other venues to serve artists likely to perform
in that general region. Consequently, artists have various alternatives to OCL’s venues when scheduling performances. Some of OCL’s
competitors in venue management have a greater number of venues in certain markets and may have greater financial resources in those markets.
The manner in which the Company participates in an opportunity will depend upon the nature of the opportunity, the respective needs and
desires of the Company and the promoters of the opportunity, and the relative negotiating strength of the Company and such promoters.
Live streamed music is the only remaining media genre without a dominant brand. While sports has ESPN, long-form content has HBO,
and news has CNN, there is a tremendous amount of high quality live music content available without a home. LXL is partnering with rights
holders and their influencers (agencies, promoters, venues, artists and record labels) to build optimal digital strategies thereby increasing
revenues for participants in the music world.
LXL expects to compete for the time and attention of its users with other content providers on the basis of a number of factors,
including quality of experience, relevance, acceptance and diversity of content, ease of use, price, accessibility, perceptions of ad load, brand
awareness and reputation. LXL also expects to compete for users on the basis of its presence and visibility as compared with other providers that
deliver content through the internet, mobile devices and consumer products.
LXL’s competitors will include (i) broadcast radio providers, including terrestrial radio providers such as Clear Channel and CBS and
satellite radio providers such as Sirius XM, (ii) interactive on-demand audio content and pre-recorded entertainment, such as Apple’s iTunes
Music Store and Apple Music, RDIO, Rhapsody, Spotify, Pandora, Tidal and Amazon that allow listeners to stream music or select the audio
content that they stream or purchase and (iii) other forms of entertainment, including Facebook (including Instagram), Google, Twitter
(including Periscope), Yahoo, and Meerkat which offer a variety of Internet and mobile device-based products, services and content. To the
extent existing or potential users choose to watch satellite or cable television, stream video from on-demand services such as Hulu, VEVO or
YouTube or play interactive video games on their home-entertainment system, computer or mobile phone rather than use the LXL service, these
content services pose a competitive threat.
Contracts
The OCHL Shareholders’ Agreement
On February 12, 2014, (1) Mr. Bengough, and (2) KoKo UK, Mr. Ellin, Trinad Capital Master Fund Limited, Ltd. (the “Ellin Parties”)
and (3) OCHL entered into a Shareholders’ Agreement (the “OCHL Shareholders’ Agreement”) pursuant to which, amongst other terms, the
parties agreed that each of Mr. Ellin and Mr. Bengough shall constitute the Board of Directors of OCHL and each shall be restricted from taking
actions on behalf of OCHL without the written consent of the other individual, including, but not limited to, changes in the nature of the
business, amendments to governing documents, restructuring or recapitalizations, issuances of stock, purchases of material assets, entry into
material contracts, incurring or guaranteeing debt, removal of any director or restructure the board of OCHL. Because OCHL is the sole parent
of OCL, the Company’s ability to manage OCHL and OCL is subject to the terms of the OCHL Shareholder Agreement and Mr. Bengough’s
consent is required for most material actions to be taken by OCHL and OCL, so long as the OCHL Shareholders’ Agreement remains in effect.
Each of Mr. Bengough and Mr. Ellin are entitled to serve on the board of OCHL so long as the OCHL Shareholders’ Agreement is in effect, and
the board cannot take action without the consent of both board members. Pursuant to the OCHL Shareholder Agreement, any cash
distributions by OCHL must be distributed pro rata to each of KoKo UK and Mr. Bengough. Finally, the OCHL Shareholder Agreement restricts
the transfer of shares in OCHL or OCL by KoKo UK or Mr. Bengough and grants each a right of first refusal and the right to have the proposed
shares valued by an independent accounting firm and sold to the other party at a price determined by valuation rather than the price necessarily
offered by the prospective purchaser.
5
Variation to Shareholders Agreement
On April 24, 2014, the OCHL Shareholders Agreement was amended pursuant to the terms of the Variation to Shareholders Agreement
(“Variation Agreement”) among Mr. Bengough, KoKo UK, the Ellin Parties, OCHL, OCL, JJAT and the Company which, amongst other terms,
(1) joined OCL, JJAT and the Company as parties to the OCHL Shareholders Agreement, and (2) Mr. Bengough also agreed to transfer all of his
interests in OCHL in exchange for 29,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company to be issued in a private placement transaction, which
would constitute no less than 42.5% of the outstanding capital stock of the Company on a fully diluted basis (but before the Company’s future
issuance of up to 3,200,000 shares of common stock to advisors, consultants and key employees of the Company as approved by the board) and
pursuant to the OCHL Shareholders’ Agreement, subject to Mr. Bengough’s receipt of satisfactory tax clearances under the tax laws of the
United Kingdom. The Company agreed to indemnify Mr. Bengough from any adverse tax expenses and costs required to be paid by Mr.
Bengough in connection with the transfer of his interests in OCHL. To date, the parties to the Variation Agreement have been unable to reach an
agreement on mutually acceptable documentation to effect the share exchange described above. The Company and Mr. Bengough are presently
continuing to co-operate OCHL and OCL with Mr. Bengough leading OCL’s day-to-day business.
The Variation Agreement and the related OCHL Shareholders’ Agreement, the terms of which are disclosed in the Original Form 8-K,
remain in full force and effect. Pursuant to the terms of the OCHL Shareholders’ Agreement and Variation Agreement, each of Mr. Ellin and Mr.
Bengough constitute the Board of Directors of OCHL and each of Mr. Bengough and Mr. Ellin are restricted from taking actions on behalf of
OCHL without the written consent of the other individual.
Employees
As of March 31, 2015, OCL had approximately 60 full-time employees including 8 salaried positions for operations, sales and marketing,
and administration. In addition, as of March 31, 2015, we had two full-time employees including LXL’s President and the Company’s executive
assistant. Other than as noted above, we presently have no employees apart from our management. Our officers and directors are engaged in
outside business activities and anticipate that they will devote to our business limited time until funding and capital resources are available to
implement the Company’s plan of operations.
OCL’s weekly staffing needs vary throughout the year depending upon the number and type of events appearing at KOKO and consist
principally of personnel associated with running the bar and coatroom. OCL also hires third party providers for KOKO security, cleaning and
technical crews. In addition, our business operations at our facility may be interrupted as a result of labor disputes by outside unions attempting
to unionize the venue even though OCL does not have unionized labor at the venue. A work stoppage at KOKO or at one of OCL’s promoted
events could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. We cannot predict the effect that a
potential work stoppage would have on our results of operations.
Going Concern
The Company is dependent upon the receipt of capital investment, other financing and, as of April 28, 2014, cash generated from
operations of OCHL to fund its ongoing operations and to execute its business plan. If continued funding and capital resources are unavailable at
reasonable terms, or if cash generated from operations of OCHL are not adequate to satisfy our working capital, capital expenditure and debt
service requirements, the Company may not be able to implement its plan of operations. The Company may be required to obtain alternative or
additional financing, from financial institutions or otherwise, in order to maintain and expand our existing operations. The failure by us to obtain
such financing, if needed, would have a material adverse effect upon our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of
liabilities in the normal course of business. Our independent registered public accounting firm has included an explanatory paragraph in their
report in our audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015 to the effect that our losses from operations and our negative
cash flows from operations raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern. We may be required to cease operations which could
result in our stockholders losing all or almost all of their investment.
6
Management Agreement
On September 23, 2011, the Company entered into a Management Agreement with Trinad Management, LLC (the “Management
Agreement”). Pursuant to the Management Agreement, Trinad Management has agreed to provide certain management services to the Company
for a period of three (3) years, including, without limitation, the sourcing, structuring and negotiation of business combination transactions
involving the Company. Under the Management Agreement, the Company compensates Trinad Management for its services with (i) a fee equal
to $2,080,000, with $90,000 payable in advance of each consecutive three-month period during the term of the Management Agreement and with
$1,000,000 due at the end of the 3 year term unless the Management Agreement is otherwise terminated earlier in accordance with its terms, and
(ii) issuance of a warrant to purchase 1,125,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.15 per share. The warrant may
be exercised in whole or in part by Trinad Management at any time for a period of ten (10) years from the date of the Management Agreement.
The payment of the $1,000,000 fee accrued on the books at the end of the term has been deferred. Trinad LLC continues to provide
service at $30,000 per month on a month to month basis.
Penzance Agreement
The Company entered into Secured Convertible Note Purchase Agreements, (the "Purchase Agreements"), dated as of March 25, 2013
and September 17, 2013, as investor and collateral agent, with Penzance, LLC, d/b/a Acheven, LLC, a California limited liability company
(“Penzance”). Penzance designs and develops Cost Per Click (CPC) advertising campaigns and distributes them across the web utilizing its
proprietary technology platform and media buying expertise.
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreements, the Company purchased $150,000 of Secured Convertible Notes (the "Notes") out of a total
$200,000 of notes offered to investors by Penzance. The Notes are secured by a Security Agreement amongst the parties.
The principal under the Notes accrues interest at a rate of 6% per annum. The Notes mature on September 17, 2015 and are pre-payable
without penalty. Note holders are entitled to repurchase rights under the Notes if the Company undergoes a Fundamental Change, as such term is
defined in the Notes.
The Company has the right to convert all or part of the accrued and unpaid principal due under the Notes into membership interests of
Penzance comprising up to 31.67% of the fully diluted membership interests of Penzance at the time of conversion. The Company has
determined the receivables attributable to this investment to be impaired because, based on current information and events, it is probable that it
will be unable to collect all amounts of the investment.

You should carefully consider each of the following risks and all of the other information set forth in this Form 10-K. The following risks relate
principally to our business, which we acquired on April 28, 2014, and our common stock. These risks and uncertainties are not the only ones
facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial may also
adversely affect our business. If any of the risks and uncertainties develop into actual events, this could have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition or results of operations. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline.
We own 50% of KOKO .
Risks Relating to Our Business
We own 50% of the shares of capital stock of OCHL. OCHL is the sole owner of OCL which owns and operates KOKO. As 50%
owner of OCHL, we have the right to appoint half of the members of the board of directors of OCHL and, as a result of the OCHL Shareholders
Agreement, as amended, of OCL as well. Following the Merger, the Board of OCHL is comprised of Mr. Ellin and Mr. Bengough and both
manage pursuant to the terms of the OCHL Shareholders’ Agreement and the Variation Agreement. Pursuant to the OCHL Shareholder
Agreement discussed above under the heading “ The OCHL Shareholder Agreement ,” and the Variation Agreement, discussed above under the
heading “Variation to Shareholder’s Agreement,” we are subject to shared control of OCHL and thus of KOKO with regard to the management
of KOKO so long as the OCHL Shareholder Agreement and the Variation Agreement are in effect and the Company controls 50% or less of the
shares of capital stock of OCHL. In the absence of holding a majority of voting rights, neither we nor the other owner of 50% of OCHL, Mr.
Bengough, can unilaterally implement decisions pertaining to the operation or disposition of KOKO.
Pursuant to the Variation Agreement, Mr. Bengough has agreed, promptly following the closing of the Merger, subject to Mr.
Bengough’s receipt of satisfactory tax clearances under the tax laws of the United Kingdom, and entry into mutually acceptable documentation,
to transfer all shares of OCHL held by him to KoKo UK with the result that OCHL would become an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Company. There is no assurance that Mr. Bengough will obtain such satisfactory tax clearances and will close on the exchange agreement to
transfer his shares of OCHL to KoKo UK. Since Mr. Bengough has failed to close on the exchange agreement to transfer his shares of OCHL to
KoKo UK, the Company will continue to co-operate OCHL with Mr. Bengough and seek expansion through other means such as acquisition of
other live concert or event or media companies, licensing opportunities and hiring skilled personnel in the concert venue, media and night-club
operations industries. The Company may not be able to fully leverage its strategies or to direct the expansion of the KOKO brand or enter into
licensing or promotional arrangements, or to exploit the KOKO venue, without the consent of Mr. Bengough.
Our business is highly sensitive to public tastes and is dependent on our ability to maintain our attractiveness and reputation.
Our business is highly sensitive to rapidly changing public tastes and is dependent on our ability to maintain the attractiveness of our
venue and reputation as a place where shows can be successfully promoted and performed.
8
Our business depends on relationships between key promoters, executives, agents, managers, artists and clients and any adverse
changes in these relationships could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The live music business is uniquely dependent upon personal relationships, as executives within live music companies such as ours
leverage their existing network of relationships with artists, agents, promoters and managers in order to secure the rights to live music
performances and events which are critical to our success. Due to the importance of those industry contacts to our business, the loss of any of
OCL’s or our officers or other key personnel could adversely affect our business. We can give no assurance that all or any of these key
employees or managers will remain with us or will retain their associations with key business contacts, including musical artists.
Similarly, OCL depends upon the Mint Group for management services including oversight of operational, financial and marketing
activities. OCL’s contract with the Mint Group is of one year duration. It is generally renewed each year but there is no assurance that at the end
of any given one-year term, it will be renewed. If it were not renewed, OCL would have to hire employees or enter a contract with a different
service provider. There is no assurance that OCL would be able to do so successfully or within a time period that would not have a material
adverse effect upon our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Another important component of our success is our ability to maintain existing and to build new relationships with third-party
distribution channels, advertisers, sponsors and service providers. Any adverse change in these relationships including the inability of these
parties to fulfill their obligations to our businesses for any reason, would adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of
operations.
We face intense competition in the live music industry, and we may not be able to maintain or increase our current revenue, which
could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our business is in a highly competitive industry, and we may not be able to maintain or increase our current revenue due to such
competition. The live music industry competes with other forms of entertainment for consumers’ discretionary spending and within this industry
we compete with other venues to book artists, and, in the markets in which we promote music concerts; we face competition from other
promoters and venue operators. Our competitors compete with us for key employees who have relationships with popular music artists and that
have a history of being able to book such artists for concerts and tours. These competitors may engage in more extensive development efforts,
undertake more far-reaching marketing campaigns, adopt more aggressive pricing policies and make more attractive offers to existing and
potential artists. Our competitors may develop services, advertising options or music venues that are equal or superior to those we provide or that
achieve greater market acceptance and brand recognition than we achieve. It is possible that new competitors may emerge and rapidly acquire
significant market share.
Other variables that could adversely affect our financial performance by, among other things, leading to decreases in overall revenue,
the number of sponsors, event attendance, ticket prices and fees or profit margins include:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
unfavorable fluctuations in operating costs which we may be unwilling or unable to pass through to our customers;
competitors’ offerings that may include more favorable terms than we offer in order to obtain agreements for new venues or
ticketing arrangements or to obtain events for the venues they operate;
technological changes and innovations that we are unable to adopt or are late in adopting that offer more attractive
entertainment alternatives than we or other live entertainment providers currently offer, which may lead to a reduction in
attendance at live events;
other entertainment options available to our audiences that we do not offer;
general economic conditions which could cause our consumers to reduce discretionary spending;
unfavorable changes in labor conditions which may require us to spend more to retain and attract key employees; and
unfavorable shifts in population and other demographics which may cause us to lose audiences as people migrate to markets
where we have a smaller presence, or which may cause sponsors to be unwilling to pay for sponsorship and advertising
opportunities if the general population shifts into a less desirable age or geographical demographic from an advertising
perspective.
We have incurred net losses and may experience future net losses.
We incurred a net loss of $5.2 million in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015. We may face reduced demand for our live music
events, our streaming platform and related services and other factors that could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of
operations in the future. We cannot predict whether we will achieve and maintain profitability in future periods.
Our success depends, in significant part, on entertainment and leisure events and factors adversely affecting such events could have
a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
A decline in attendance at or reduction in the number of live entertainment and leisure events may have an adverse effect on our
revenue and operating income. In addition, during past economic slowdowns and recessions, many consumers reduced their discretionary
spending and advertisers reduced their advertising expenditures. The impact of economic slowdowns on our business is difficult to predict, but
they may result in reductions in sponsorship opportunities and our ability to generate revenue. The risks associated with our businesses may
become more acute in periods of a slowing economy or recession, which may be accompanied by a decrease in attendance at live entertainment
and leisure events.
9
Our business depends on discretionary consumer and corporate spending. Many factors related to corporate spending and discretionary
consumer spending, including economic conditions affecting disposable consumer income such as employment, fuel prices, interest and tax rates
and inflation can significantly impact our operating results. Business conditions, as well as various industry conditions, including corporate
marketing and promotional spending and interest levels, can also significantly impact our operating results. These factors can affect attendance at
our events, premium seat sales, sponsorship, advertising and hospitality spending, concession and merchandise sales, as well as the financial
results of sponsors of our venues, events and the industry. Negative factors such as challenging economic conditions, public concerns over
terrorism and security incidents, particularly when combined, can impact corporate and consumer spending, and one negative factor can impact
our results more than another. There can be no assurance that consumer and corporate spending will not be adversely impacted by current
economic conditions, or by any further or future deterioration in economic conditions, thereby possibly impacting our operating results and
growth.
We may enter into future acquisitions and take certain actions in connection with such transactions that could affect our results of
operations and the price of our common stock.
As part of our growth strategy, we expect to review acquisition prospects that would offer growth opportunities. In the event of future
acquisitions, we could, among other things:
•
•
•
•
•
•
use a significant portion of our available cash;
issue equity securities, which would dilute current stockholders’ percentage ownership;
incur substantial debt;
incur or assume contingent liabilities, known or unknown;
incur amortization expenses related to intangibles; and
incur large accounting write-offs.
Such actions by us could adversely affect our results of operations and the price of our common stock.
OCL currently operates in the London market, but we plan to expand internationally which may expose us to risks not found doing
business in the United Kingdom.
OCL currently provides services in the United Kingdom but we expect to expand our presence internationally. We expect to face
additional risks in the case of our existing and future international operations, including:
•
political instability, adverse changes in diplomatic relations and unfavorable economic conditions in our current market and in
new markets into which we may expand;
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
• more restrictive or otherwise unfavorable government regulation of the music and live entertainment industries, which could
result in increased compliance costs and/or otherwise restrict the manner in which we provide services and the amount of
related fees charged for such services;
limitations on the ability of foreign subsidiaries to repatriate profits or otherwise remit earnings;
adverse tax consequences;
any failure to comply with foreign laws and regulations could subject us to fines and penalties;
operating in foreign countries subjects us to risk from currency fluctuations;
expropriations of property and risks of renegotiation or modification of existing agreements with governmental authorities;
diminished ability to legally enforce our contractual rights in foreign countries;
lower levels of internet usage, credit card usage and consumer spending in comparison to those in the United Kingdom; and
difficulties in managing operations and adapting to consumer desires due to distance, language and cultural differences,
including issues associated with (i) business practices and customs that are common in certain foreign countries but might be
prohibited by U.S. or British law and our internal policies and procedures, and (ii) management and operational systems and
infrastructures, including internal financial control and reporting systems and functions, staffing and managing of foreign
operations, which we might not be able to do effectively, or if so, on a cost-efficient basis.
Since Mr. Bengough has failed to close on the exchange agreement to transfer his shares of OCHL to KoKo UK, the Company will
need to seek expansion through other means such as acquisition of other live concert or event or media companies, seeking out licensing
opportunities and hiring skilled personnel in the concert venue, media and night-club operations industries.
If the revenue generated by international operations is insufficient to offset expenses incurred in connection with the maintenance and
growth of these operations, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. In addition, in
an effort to make international operations in one or more given jurisdictions profitable over the long term, significant additional investments that
are not profitable over the short term could be required over a prolonged period.

OCL and/or LXL may fail to adequately protect its intellectual property rights or may be accused of infringing upon intellectual
property rights of third parties.
OCL and/or LXL may fail to adequately protect its intellectual property rights or may be accused of infringing upon intellectual
property rights of third parties. We regard our and OCL/LXL’s intellectual property rights, including service marks, trademarks, domain names,
copyrights, trade secrets and other intellectual property (as applicable) as critical to our success.
OCL and LXL rely on a combination of laws and contractual restrictions with employees, customers, suppliers, affiliates and others to
establish and protect these proprietary rights. Despite these precautions, it may be possible for a third party to copy or otherwise obtain and use
trade secrets, trademarks, service marks, domain names, or copyrighted intellectual property without authorization which, if discovered, might
require legal action to correct. In addition, third parties may independently and lawfully develop substantially similar intellectual properties.
OCL and LXL have generally registered and continue to apply to register, or secure by contract when appropriate, our trademarks and
service marks as they are developed and used. OCL and LXL consider the protection of their trademarks and service marks to be important for
purposes of brand maintenance and reputation. While OCL and LXL vigorously protect their trademarks, service marks and domain names,
effective trademark protection may not be available or may not be sought in every country in which OCL and LXL may operate, and contractual
disputes may affect the use of marks governed by private contract. As we expand internationally, we may become aware of third parties in other
jurisdictions that already own prior rights to the KOKO and LiveXLive trademarks. Depending on the circumstances, we may deem it
appropriate, for instance, to acquire a license or a consent from any such prior mark owners, or we may determine to operate under a different
mark in that jurisdiction. Also, OCL and LXL have generally also registered and continue to reserve and register domain names as we deem
appropriate. Not every variation of a domain name may be available, however, or OCL or LXL may determine not to register it, even if
available. Our or OCL’s or LXL’s failure to protect our intellectual property rights in a meaningful manner or challenges to related contractual
rights could result in erosion of brand names and limit our ability to control marketing on or through the internet using our various domain
names or otherwise, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
In addition, litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights, protect trade secrets or determine the
validity and scope of proprietary rights claimed by others. Any litigation of this nature, regardless of outcome or merit, could result in substantial
costs and diversion of management and technical resources, any of which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of
operations.
Exchange rates may cause fluctuations in our results of operations that are not related to our operations.
Because we own, through OCL, assets overseas and derive revenue from our international operations, we may incur currency
translation losses or gains due to changes in the values of foreign currencies relative to the United States Dollar. We cannot predict the effect of
exchange rate fluctuations upon future operating results.
There is the risk of personal injuries and accidents in connection with OCL’s live music events, which could subject us or OCL to
personal injury or other claims and increase our expenses, as well as reduce attendance at OCL’s live music events, causing a decrease in
our revenue.
There are inherent risks involved with producing live music events. As a result, personal injuries and accidents have, and may, occur
from time to time, which could subject us to claims and liabilities for personal injuries. Incidents in connection with OCL’s live music events at
any of our venues could also result in claims, reducing operating income or reducing attendance at our events, which could cause a decrease in
our revenue. While we maintain insurance policies that provide coverage within limits that are sufficient, in management’s judgment, to protect
us from material financial loss for personal injuries sustained by persons at OCL’s venues or events or accidents in the ordinary course of
business, there can be no assurance that such insurance will be adequate at all times and in all circumstances.
Activities or conduct, such as illegal drug use, at OCL’s properties or the events OCL produces may expose OCL to liability, cause
OCL to lose business licenses or government approvals, result in the cancellation of all or a part of an event or result in adverse publicity.
OCL is subject to risks associated with activities or conduct, such as drug use at our events or venue that are illegal or violate the terms
of our OCL’s business licenses. Illegal activities or conduct at any of our events or venue may result in negative publicity, adverse consequences
(including illness, injury or death) to the persons engaged in the illegal activity or others, and litigation against us. OCL has developed policies
and procedures aimed at ensuring that the operation of each event is conducted in conformance with local, state and federal laws. Additionally,
OCL has a ‘‘no tolerance’’ policy on illegal drug use in or around its facilities, and OCL continually monitors the actions of entertainers, fans
and our employees to ensure that proper behavioral standards are met. However, such policies, no matter how well designed and enforced,
cannot provide absolute assurance that the policies’ objectives are achieved. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems and
policies, there can be no assurance that our policies will prevent deliberate acts by persons attempting to violate or circumvent them. The
consequences of these acts may increase our costs, result in the loss or termination of the lease for OCL’s venue by the property owner, result in
our inability to get the necessary permits and locations for our events, or lead to the cancellation of all or part of an event. These consequences
may also make it more difficult for OCL to obtain or retain sponsorships, lower consumer demand for OCL’s events, subject OCL to liability
claims, divert management’s attention from OCL’s business and make an investment in our securities unattractive to current and potential
investors. These outcomes could have the effect of lowering our revenue, profitability and/or our stock price.
11
Costs associated with, and our ability to obtain, adequate insurance could adversely affect our profitability and financial condition.
Heightened concerns and challenges regarding property, casualty, liability, business interruption and other insurance coverage have
resulted from terrorist and related security incidents along with varying weather-related conditions and incidents. As a result, OCL may
experience increased difficulty obtaining high policy limits of coverage at reasonable rates, including coverage for acts of terrorism and weather-
related property damage. OCL has a material investment in property and equipment at its existing venue and may have material investments at
future venues, which are located in or near major cities and which hold events typically attended by a large number of fans.
These operational, geographical and situational factors, among others, may result in significant increases in insurance premium costs
and difficulties obtaining sufficiently high policy limits with deductibles that we believe to be reasonable. OCL cannot assure that future
increases in insurance costs and difficulties obtaining high policy limits will not adversely impact its profitability, thereby possibly impacting our
operating results and growth.
We cannot guarantee that our insurance policy coverage limits, including insurance coverage for property, casualty, liability and
business interruption losses and acts of terrorism, would be adequate under the circumstances should one or multiple events occur at or near any
of our venues, or that our insurers would have adequate financial resources to sufficiently or fully pay our related claims or damages. We cannot
guarantee that adequate coverage limits will be available, offered at reasonable rates, or offered by insurers with sufficient financial soundness.
The occurrence of such an incident or incidents affecting our existing venue or any one or more of our future venues could have a material
adverse effect on our financial position and future results of operations if asset damage and/or company liability were to exceed insurance
coverage limits or if an insurer were unable to sufficiently or fully pay our related claims or damages.
Costs associated with capital improvements could adversely affect our profitability and liquidity.
Growth or maintenance of OCL’s existing revenue depends in part on consistent investment in its venue. Therefore, OCL expects to
continue to make substantial capital improvements to meet long-term increasing demand, value and revenue. OCL frequently may have a
number of significant capital projects underway. Numerous factors, many of which are beyond OCL’s control, may influence the ultimate costs
and timing of various capital improvements, including:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
availability of financing on favorable terms;
advances in technology and related changes in customer expectations;
unforeseen changes in design;
increases in the cost of materials, equipment and labor;
fluctuations in foreign exchange rates;
litigation, accidents or natural disasters;
national or regional economic changes; and
additional venue acquisition costs.
The amount of capital expenditures can vary significantly from year to year. In addition, actual costs could vary materially from our
estimates if the factors listed above and our assumptions about the quality of materials, equipment or workmanship required or the cost of
financing such expenditures were to change. Construction is also subject to governmental permitting processes which, if changed, could
materially affect the ultimate cost.
OCL is subject to extensive governmental regulation, and our failure to comply with these regulations could adversely affect our
business, financial condition and results of operations.
OCL’s operations are subject to national statutes, rules, regulations, policies and procedures, both domestically and internationally,
which are subject to change at any time, governing matters such as:
construction, renovation and operation of our venues;
licensing and planning laws, including those relating to noise, security and playing copyrighted music and sound recordings;
human health, safety and sanitation requirements;
the service of food and alcoholic beverages;
•
•
•
•
• working conditions, labor, minimum wage and hour, immigration and employment laws;
•
compliance with the DDA, DDR and regarding any operations in the US, the ADA;
•
listed building regulation;
•
compliance with United States FCPA, the United Kingdom’s Bribery Act 2010 and similar regulations in other countries;
•
advertising regulation;
•
hazardous and non-hazardous waste and other environmental protection laws;
•
sales and other taxes and withholding of taxes;
12
privacy laws and protection of personally identifiable information;
•
• marketing activities via post, telephone, text and online; and
•
the timely filing of corporate documentation with the Company Registrar (including in relation to financial accounts).
OCL’s failure to comply with these laws and regulations could result in fines and/or proceedings against us by governmental agencies
and/or consumers, which if material, could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. While OCL attempts to
conduct its business and operations in a manner that it believes to be in compliance with such laws and regulations, there can be no assurance
that a law or regulation will not be interpreted or enforced in a manner contrary to OCL’s current understanding of the law or regulation. In
addition, the promulgation of new laws, rules and regulations could restrict or unfavorably impact our business, which could decrease demand
for services, reduce revenue, increase costs and/or subject us to additional liabilities.
Unfavorable outcomes in legal proceedings may adversely affect our business and operating results.
Our results may be affected by the outcome of any future litigation. Unfavorable rulings in future legal proceedings may have a
negative impact on us that may be greater or smaller depending on the nature of the rulings. In addition, from time to time in the future we may
be subject to various claims, investigations, legal and administrative cases and proceedings (whether civil or criminal) or lawsuits by
governmental agencies or private parties, as further described in the immediately preceding risk factor. If the results of these investigations,
proceedings or suits are unfavorable to us or if we are unable to successfully defend against third-party lawsuits, we may be required to pay
monetary damages or may be subject to fines, penalties, injunctions or other censure that could have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition and operating results. Even if we adequately address the issues raised by an investigation or proceeding or successfully
defend a third-party lawsuit or counterclaim, we may have to devote significant financial and management resources to address these issues,
which could harm our business, financial condition and operating results.
Our primary strategy for the growth of LXL is dependent upon our ability to acquire and develop live music festival streaming
rights, and any inability to fund the significant up-front cash requirements associated with our live music streaming platform could result in
the inability to secure and retain such festival rights.
In order to secure live music festival streaming rights, we are often required to advance cash to the festival promoter prior to the sale of
any advertising or sponsorships or for that festival. If we do not have sufficient cash on hand or available capacity to advance the necessary cash
for any given festival, we would not be able to retain the rights for that festival and our live music streaming business would be negatively
impacted.
If we fail to develop and grow LXL’s user base, or if ad engagement on our platform declines, our revenue, business and operating
results may be harmed.
The size of LXL’s user base is critical to our success. LXL will need to develop and cultivate a strong user base. We expect to generate
revenue based upon subscription fees from our users and ads that we display. If people do not perceive our products and services to be useful,
reliable and trustworthy, we may not be able to attract users to subscribe to our services and/or increase the frequency of their engagement with
our platform and the ads that we display. A number of consumer-oriented websites that achieved early popularity have since seen their user bases
or levels of engagement decline, in some cases precipitously. There is no guarantee that we will not experience a similar erosion of our user base.
A number of factors could potentially negatively affect user growth and engagement, including if:
•
•
users engage with other products, services or activities as an alternative to ours;
influential users, such as world leaders, government officials, celebrities, athletes, journalists, sports teams, media outlets and
brands or certain age demographics conclude that an alternative product or service is more relevant;
• we are unable to convince potential new users of the value and usefulness of our products and services;
•
there is a decrease in the perceived quality of our content;
• we fail to introduce new and improved products or services or if we introduce new or improved products or services that are not
favorably received or that negatively affect user engagement;
•
•
•
technical or other problems prevent us from delivering our products or services in a rapid and reliable manner or otherwise affect
the user experience, including issues with connecting to the Internet;
users have difficulty installing, updating, or otherwise accessing our products or services on mobile devices as a result of actions
by us or third parties that we rely on to distribute our products and deliver our services;
users believe that their experience is diminished as a result of the decisions we make with respect to the frequency, relevance and
prominence of ads that we display;
13
•
•
there are user concerns related to privacy and communication, safety, security or other factors;
there are adverse changes in our products or services that are mandated by, or that we elect to make to address, legislation,
regulatory authorities or litigation, including settlements or consent decrees;
• we fail to provide adequate customer service to users; or
• we do not maintain our brand image or our reputation is damaged.
If we are unable to develop and grow our user base, or if these metrics decline, our products and services could be less attractive to
potential new users, as well as to advertisers and platform partners, which would have a material and adverse impact on our business, financial
condition and operating results.
If LXL is unable to compete effectively for users and advertiser spend, our business and operating results could be harmed.
Competition for users of LXL’s products and services is intense. Although LXL is developing a new platform for streaming live music
events in real time, LXL faces strong competition in its business. LXL will compete against many companies to attract and engage users,
including, (i) broadcast radio providers, including terrestrial radio providers such as Clear Channel and CBS and satellite radio providers such as
Sirius XM, (ii) interactive on-demand audio content and pre-recorded entertainment, such as Apple’s iTunes Music Store and Apple Music,
RDIO, Rhapsody, Spotify, Pandora, Tidal and Amazon that allow listeners to stream music or select the audio content that they stream or
purchase and (iii) other forms of entertainment, including Facebook (including Instagram), Google, Twitter (including Periscope), Yahoo, and
Meerkat which offer a variety of Internet and mobile device-based products, services and content. To the extent users choose to watch satellite or
cable television, stream video from on-demand services such as Hulu, VEVO or YouTube or play interactive video games on their home-
entertainment system, computer or mobile phone rather than use the LXL service, these content services pose a competitive threat. We believe
that LXL’s ability to compete effectively for users depends upon many factors both within and beyond our control, including:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
the popularity, usefulness, ease of use, performance and reliability of our products and services compared to those of our
competitors;
the timing and market acceptance of our products and services;
the adoption of our products and services domestically and internationally;
our ability, and the ability of our competitors, to develop new products and services and enhancements to existing products and
services;
the frequency and relative prominence of the ads displayed by us or our competitors;
our ability to establish and maintain relationships with platform partners that integrate with our platform;
changes mandated by, or that we elect to make to address, legislation, regulatory authorities or litigation, including settlements
and consent decrees, some of which may have a disproportionate effect on us;
our ability to attract, retain and motivate talented employees, particularly engineers, designers and product managers;
acquisitions or consolidation within our industry, which may result in more formidable competitors; and
our reputation and the brand strength relative to our competitors.
LXL also will face significant competition for advertiser spend. We expect the substantial majority of LXL’s advertising revenue will
be generated through festival sponsorships and ads on the LXL mobile app and website, and LXL competes against online and mobile
businesses, including those referenced above, and traditional media outlets, such as television, radio and print, for advertising budgets. LXL also
will compete with advertising networks, exchanges, demand side platforms and other platforms, such as Google AdSense, DoubleClick Ad
Exchange, Yahoo Ad Exchange, AOL’s Ad.com and Microsoft Media Network, for marketing budgets and in the development of the tools and
systems for managing and optimizing advertising campaigns. In order to grow LXL’s revenue and improve LXL’s operating results, LXL must
increase its share of spending on advertising relative to its competitors, many of which are larger companies that offer more traditional and
widely accepted advertising products. In addition, some of LXL’s larger competitors have substantially broader product or service offerings and
leverage their relationships based on other products or services to gain additional share of advertising budgets.
14
If LXL is not able to compete effectively for users and advertisers spend our business and operating results would be materially and
adversely affected.
LXL’s products and services may contain undetected software errors, which could harm our business and operating results.
LXL’s products and services incorporate complex software and we encourage employees to quickly develop and help us launch new
and innovative features. Our software, including any open source software that is incorporated into our code, may contain errors, bugs or
vulnerabilities. Any errors, bugs or vulnerabilities discovered in our code after release could result in damage to our reputation, loss of users, loss
of platform partners, loss of advertisers or advertising revenue or liability for damages, any of which could adversely affect our business and
operating results.
LXL’s products and services contain open source software, and LXL licenses some of its software through open source projects,
which may pose particular risks to LXL proprietary software, products, and services in a manner that could have a negative effect on our
business.
LXL uses open source software in its products and services and will use open source software in the future. The terms of many open
source licenses to which LXL is subject have not been interpreted by U.S. or foreign courts, and there is a risk that open source software licenses
could be construed in a manner that imposes unanticipated conditions or restrictions on LXL’s ability to provide or distribute its products or
services. Additionally, LXL may from time to time face claims from third parties claiming ownership of, or demanding release of, the open
source software or derivative works that LXL developed using such software, which could include LXL proprietary source code, or otherwise
seeking to enforce the terms of the applicable open source license. These claims could result in litigation and could require LXL to make its
software source code freely available, purchase a costly license or cease offering the implicated products or services unless and until LXL can re-
engineer them to avoid infringement. This re-engineering process could require significant additional research and development resources, and
LXL may not be able to complete it successfully. In addition to risks related to license requirements, use of certain open source software can lead
to greater risks than use of third-party commercial software, as open source licensors generally do not provide warranties or controls on the
origin of software. Any of these risks could be difficult to eliminate or manage, and, if not addressed, could have a negative effect on our
business, financial condition and operating results.
We will require substantial amounts of capital to develop, launch and operate LXL, and we cannot be certain that this capital will be
available on reasonable terms when required, or at all.
We will require substantial amounts of capital to develop, launch and operate LXL. Our ability to obtain financing, if and when
required, will depend on investor and lender demand, our operating performance, the condition of the capital markets and other factors, and we
cannot assure you that additional financing will be available to us on favorable terms when required, or at all. If we raise additional funds
through the issuance of equity, equity-linked or debt securities, those securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to the rights of
our common stock, and our existing stockholders may experience dilution. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on terms
satisfactory to us when we require it, our ability to continue to support the operation or growth of our business could be significantly impaired
and our operating results may be harmed.
Our revenue depends in part on the promotional success of our marketing campaigns, and there can be no assurance that such
advertising, promotional and other marketing campaigns will be successful or will generate revenue or profits.
Such marketing activities include, among others, promotion of events and ticket sales, premium seat sales, hospitality and other services
for our events and venues and advertising associated with our distribution of related merchandise and apparel. There can be no assurance that
these marketing or advertising efforts will be successful or will generate revenue or profits.
We are vulnerable to the potential difficulties associated with rapid growth.
We believe that our future success depends on our ability to manage the rapid growth that we expect to achieve organically and through
acquisitions and the demands and additional responsibilities that our growth will place on our management.
The following factors could present us with difficulties in managing our growth:
•
•
•
•
•
a lack of sufficient executive-level personnel;
the inability to successfully develop, expand and monetize our digital music, video and other content offerings;
an increased administrative burden on our employees;
the inability to attract, train, manage and retain the qualified personnel necessary to manage and operate a greater number
of venues, events and other business activities; and
the inability to integrate acquired businesses.
If we fail to address these and other challenges associated with our anticipated growth, our growth itself may fail to materialize, we may
grow without achieving profitability, we may have difficulty with our internal controls and procedures and the quality of our events and other
offerings may decline, among other things. Any of these could harm our business and financial results.
15
OCL and/or LXL may be adversely affected by the occurrence of extraordinary events, such as terrorist attacks.
The occurrence and threat of extraordinary events, such as terrorist attacks, intentional or unintentional mass-casualty incidents, natural
disasters or similar events, may substantially decrease the use of and demand for our services and the attendance at live music events, which may
decrease OCL’s and/or LXL’s revenue or expose them to substantial liability. The terrorism and security incidents in the past, military actions in
foreign locations and periodic elevated terrorism alerts have raised numerous challenging operating factors, including public concerns regarding
air travel, military actions and additional national or local catastrophic incidents, causing a nationwide disruption of commercial and leisure
activities.
Following past terrorism actions, some artists refused to travel or book tours, which adversely affected our business. The occurrence or
threat of future terrorist attacks, military actions by the United States or others, contagious disease outbreaks, natural disasters such as
earthquakes and severe floods or similar events cannot be predicted, and their occurrence can be expected to negatively affect the economies of
the United States, the United Kingdom and other foreign countries where we may do business in the future.
To service OCL’s lease obligations and to fund potential acquisitions and capital expenditures, OCL will require a significant
amount of cash, which depends on many factors beyond our control.
OCL’s ability to service its lease obligations and to fund potential acquisitions and capital expenditures will require a significant
amount of cash, which depends on many factors beyond our control. This is, to an extent, subject to general economic, financial, competitive,
legislative, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control.
We cannot assure you that OCL’s business will generate sufficient cash flow or that future borrowings will be available to OCL in an
amount sufficient to enable OCL to pay its lease obligations or to fund its other liquidity needs. If OCL’s future cash flow from operations and
other capital resources are insufficient to pay its obligations as they occur or to fund its liquidity needs, it may be forced to reduce or delay
business activities and capital expenditures, sell assets or obtain additional equity capital.
These measures might also be unsuccessful or inadequate in permitting OCL to meet scheduled lease obligations. It may be unable to
restructure or refinance its obligations and obtain debt or equity financing or sell assets on satisfactory terms or at all. Capital markets have been
volatile in the recent past; a downturn could negatively impact our ability to access capital should the need arise. As a result, the inability to meet
OCL’s lease obligations could cause it to default on those obligations. Any such defaults could materially harm our financial condition and
liquidity.
We cannot predict the prices at which our common stock may trade.
Risks Relating to Our Common Stock
The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly due to a number of factors, some of which may be beyond our
control, including:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
our quarterly or annual earnings, or those of other companies in our industry;
actual or anticipated fluctuations in our operating results due to the seasonality of our business and other factors related to our
business;
our loss of or inability to obtain significant popular artists;
changes in accounting standards, policies, guidance, interpretations or principles;
announcements by us or our competitors of significant contracts, acquisitions or divestitures;
the publication by securities analysts of financial estimates or reports about our business;
changes by securities analysts of earnings estimates or reports, or our inability to meet those estimates or achieve any goals
described in those reports;
the disclosure of facts about our business that may differ from those assumed by securities analysts in preparing their estimates
or reports about us;
• media reports, whether accurate or inaccurate;
•
•
•
•
receptivity of the capital markets to our efforts to expand into the live music festival streaming business;
the operating and stock price performance of other comparable companies;
overall market fluctuations; and
general economic conditions.
In particular, the realization of any of the risks described in these Risk Factors could have a significant and adverse impact on the
market price of our common stock.
In addition, in the past, some companies that have had volatile market prices for their securities have been subject to securities class
action suits filed against them. If a suit were to be filed against us, regardless of the outcome, it could result in substantial legal costs and a
diversion of our management’s attention and resources. This could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and
financial condition.
16
We have no plans to pay dividends on our common stock, which could affect its market price.
We currently intend to retain any future earnings to finance the growth, development and expansion of our business and/or to repay
existing indebtedness. Accordingly, we do not intend to declare or pay any dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future. The
declaration, payment and amount of future dividends, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the board of directors after taking into account
various factors, including our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow from operations, current and anticipated capital requirements
and expansion plans, the income tax laws then in effect and the requirements of Nevada law.
Accordingly, holders of common stock will not receive cash payments on their investment and the market price may be adversely
affected.
Future sales or other issuances of our common stock could adversely affect its market price.
We have a large number of shares of common stock outstanding and available for resale beginning at various points in time in the
future. Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market, or the possibility that these sales may occur, could
cause the market price for our common stock to decline. As of June 26, 2015, there were approximately 45.0 million shares of Company
common stock outstanding (including 1.41 million shares of unvested restricted stock awards), and warrants to purchase 1.475 million shares of
common stock.
We continually explore acquisition opportunities consistent with our strategy. These acquisitions may involve the payment of cash, the
incurrence of debt or the issuance of common stock or other securities. Any such issuance could be at a valuation lower than the trading price of
our common stock at the time. In addition, future financing transactions through the sale of additional shares of our common stock at or below
market prices may adversely affect our stock prices. The price of our common stock could also be affected by possible sales of our common
stock by hedging or arbitrage trading activity that may develop involving our common stock.
Our directors and officers do not hold the majority of voting rights to control or to submit to stockholders for approval matters
related to the operations of OCHL, OCL or KOKO.
Pursuant to the OCHL Shareholder Agreement and the Variation Agreement, the Company is restricted from taking actions on behalf of
OCHL without the written consent of Mr. Bengough, and Mr. Bengough’s consent is required for most material actions to be taken by OCHL
and OCL, so long as the OCHL Shareholder’s Agreement and the Variation Agreement remain in effect. This severely limits the power of the
shareholders of the Company to vote to take actions with respect to KOKO’s business. Therefore, the management of the Company needs to
make decisions relating to the operations of KOKO in consultation with Mr. Bengough and subject to the terms of the OCHL Shareholders
Agreement and the Variation Agreement.

Unresolved Staff Comments
None.
Item 2.
Description of Property
As of March 31, 2015, the Company neither rents nor owns any properties other than in respect of OCL’s lease for KOKO at 1 Camden
High Street, London NW1. We believe that KOKO’s existing property is in good condition and is suitable for the conduct of OCL’s business.
The Company normally utilizes the office space and equipment of its management at no cost. Management estimates such amounts to be
immaterial. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015, the Company sub-leased office space from Trinad Management LLC from October 1,
2014 to January 8, 2015. The Company currently has no policy with respect to investments or interests in real estate, real estate mortgages or
securities of, or interests in, persons primarily engaged in real estate activities.
Item 3.
Legal Proceedings
The judicial review is being brought by Obar Camden Limited. The current judicial review claim (case number CO/738/2015) was filed
in the High Court by Obar Camden Limited on February 16, 2015. (Judicial review is the process by which the Courts review the exercise of
statutory functions by public bodies in England and Wales). The claim is a legal challenge to the decision by the London Borough of Camden
Council to grant planning permission reference 2014/2621 on January 6, 2015 for the redevelopment of the former Hope & Anchor public house
as 8 residential units. This is the neighboring property to the Koko Club and the grounds of challenge relate to legal flaws in the way that the
Council assessed noise and heritage impacts of the proposed development as part of its decision. The relief sought is a Court Order to quash the
planning permission that has been granted. Whilst the Council is defending the claim, the applicant is playing no active role in the proceedings.
Judicial review is a two stage process, where the case is first considered by a judge on the papers to decide whether it should get
permission to proceed to a substantive hearing. The Court granted permission for the claim to proceed on March 27, 2015 and a one-day hearing
has been listed in the High Court on August 5, 2015.
17
The case has been brought because the Council has granted a planning permission for a multiple occupancy residential development
adjacent to KOKO. Obar Camden believes that the Council did not properly seek to understand and consider the potential for conflict between
the venue and new residents being in such close proximity to each other and without requiring adequate sound insulation measures to be in place
to ensure that the parties can co-exist peacefully. The grant of the permission in its current form leaves the venue potentially vulnerable to
complaints, which in turn could have adverse consequences for KOKO’s premises licence. If successful, the planning permission will be
quashed.

Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
Common Stock
Our Articles of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 75,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.001 per share. The
common stock is eligible for trading on QB Tier of the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board under the symbol “LTNR,” but a trading market has not
developed to date. As of June 19, 2015, there were approximately 58 holders of record of the common stock.
The Company’s common stock is a “penny stock” as defined in Rule 3a51-1 under the Exchange Act. The penny stock rules require a
broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that
provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the
customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its sales person in the transaction,
and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. In addition, the penny stock rules
require that the broker-dealer, not otherwise exempt from such rules, must make a special written determination that the penny stock is suitable
for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure rules have the effect of reducing the level of
trading activity in the secondary market for a stock that becomes subject to the penny stock rules. So long as the common stock of the Company
is subject to the penny stock rules, it may be more difficult to sell the Company’s common stock.
Dividend Policy
The Company has not declared or paid any cash dividends on its common stock and does not intend to declare or pay any cash dividend in
the foreseeable future. The payment of dividends, if any, is within the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend on the Company’s
earnings, if any, its capital requirements and financial condition and such other factors as the Board of Directors may consider.
Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans
The Company does not have any equity compensation plans or any individual compensation arrangements with respect to its common
stock or preferred stock. The issuance of any of our common or preferred stock is within the discretion of our Board of Directors, which has the
power to issue any or all of our authorized but unissued shares without stockholder approval.

expire four (4) years from the date of original issuance. As consideration for these warrants, the investors (each, a “Holder”) agreed to release the
Company and its principals from any and all claims relating to the Holder’s present or prior investments in the Company and from any other
claim, existing on or prior to the warrant’s date of original issuance.
19
On December 22, 2014 the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with an investor pursuant to which the Company
agreed to issue an aggregate of 250,000 Units (each, a “Unit”) at a purchase price per Unit of $1.00 for an aggregate purchase price of $250,000,
with each Unit consisting of one common share in the capital of the Company (each, a “Share”) and one warrant to purchase a share of Company
common stock (each, a “Warrant”). The Warrants are exercisable for a period of four (4) years from the date of original issuance at an exercise
price of $0.01 per share. The proceeds were used for general administrative purposes.
During the period ended December 31, 2014, the Company issued 2,400,000 shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of
$24,000 in connection with the exercise of warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.01 per share.
During the period ended December 31, 2014, the Company entered into a Subscription Agreement with its legal advisors (the
“Subscription Agreement”). Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, the advisors agreed to subscribe to the purchase of 954,988 shares of the
Company’s common stock, at the price of $0.50 per share, in exchange for legal services previously rendered to the Company in the aggregate
amount of $477,494. For the period ended December 31, 2014, 954,988 common shares, valued at $0.50 per share, or $477,494, were earned and
recorded as a reduction in accounts payable relating to this Agreement.
On March 19 and 20, 2015, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with two investors pursuant to which the Company
agreed to issue an aggregate of 100,000 Units (each, a “Unit”) at a purchase price per Unit of $1.00 for an aggregate purchase price of $100,000,
with each Unit consisting of one common share in the capital of the Company (each, a “Share”) and one warrant to purchase a share of Company
common stock (each, a “Warrant”). The Warrants are exercisable for a period of four (4) years from the date of original issuance at an exercise
price of $0.01 per share.
For each of the above, we relied on Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, as providing an exemption from registering the sale of these shares
of common stock under the Securities Act because, among other reasons, the offerees/issuees were accredited investors who were not subject to
any general solicitation.
Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation
On April 28, 2014, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Loton
Acquisition Sub I, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Acquisition Sub”) and KoKo (Camden) Holdings (US), Inc. (“KoKo Parent”), a Delaware
corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of JJAT Corp. (“JJAT”), a Delaware corporation wholly-owned by Robert Ellin, the Company’s Chief
Executive Officer, Director and controlling shareholder (“Mr. Ellin”), and his affiliates (the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger, KoKo Parent
became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and the Company’s primary business became that of KoKo Parent and its subsidiaries,
KoKo (Camden) Limited, a private limited company registered in England and Wales (“KoKo UK”) which owns 50% of OBAR Camden
Holdings Limited, a private limited company registered in England and Wales (“OCHL”) which in turn wholly-owns its operating subsidiary
OBAR Camden Limited, a private limited company registered in England and Wales (“OCL”). Upon the closing of the Merger, pursuant to the
terms of the Merger Agreement, KoKo Parent’s former sole shareholder, JJAT Corp., received 29,000,000 shares of Loton, Corp common stock
(“Company Common Stock”), or approximately 73.9% of the shares of the Company outstanding post-merger. On May 1, 2014, Olly Bengough
was appointed to our Board as a Director and was appointed our Chief Executive Officer with Rob Ellin remaining as our President and
Executive Chairman. On September 23, 2014, Olly Bengough resigned as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and from the Board of
Directors of the Company.
As a result of the Merger, we abandoned our prior business plan and are currently pursuing our principal business through the operation
of OCHL and its wholly-owned subsidiary OCL. OCHL was incorporated in England and Wales on October 17, 2012 to become a
comprehensive digital music and entertainment company. OCL, is a music and entertainment company whose principal business is the operation
of a live music venue and nightclub known as KOKO located in Camden, London. KOKO provides live shows, club nights, corporate and other
events at KOKO and broadcasted digitally. The venue has been used to record live performances which have been broadcast to an international
audience. OCHL and OCL are 50% co-owned by Olly Bengough, who was our former Chief Executive Officer and Director.
We continue to expand into live music and in February 2015, we formed a new 100% owned subsidiary FestreamTV which
subsequently changed its name to LiveXLive (“LXL”) in May 2015. LXL’s mission is to aggregate thousands of hours of live music and content
driven by live music through mutually beneficially relationships with the world’s top talent, music companies, festivals and promoters. LXL
plans to showcase professionally produced, innovative, immersive and experiential live broadcasts in HD. We expect that fans will have the
opportunity to see their favorite festivals, concerts and experiences on any screen they choose across all video platforms and devices from
mobile to the home. We intend for these fans to be able to view concert experiences from any connected device with exclusive access only LXL
brings from the stage to backstage, inside dressing rooms, and places previously off limits to anyone but VIPs and artists.
20
The Company’s strategy is to provide the first independent global live music and lifestyle streaming network delivering around the
clock live music to viewers on any connected device as an authentic and experiential platform to grow revenue, earnings and cash flow. LXL
expects to provide consumers with the opportunity to view the most sought after live music around the globe via any distribution channel on a
24/7/365 basis. We anticipate that the platform will offer the world’s leading music festivals with multi-day and multi-stage coverage, unique
concerts, intimate performances and cutting edge programming.
The LXL network expects to provide compelling and curated content that showcases the entire spectrum of music to include music
inspired fashion, food, and lifestyle content and showcase interviews, back stage access and both fan and artist perspectives. We plan to extend
the live experience to fans on desktop, laptop, mobile, tablets, consoles, connected TV’s and virtual reality platforms. LXL intends to feature all
genres of music including rock, pop, indie, alternative, EDM, country and feature major festival headliners as well as emerging artists
performing at clubs and venues around the globe. LXL is also developing key strategic relationships in technology, distribution, advertising,
mobile and virtual reality to augment its network delivery strategy.
In addition, the Company plans to leverage KOKO’s success and brand in live entertainment and relationships with fans, artists and
advertisers to capture originated content, create owned/co-owned branded activity and develop new and complimentary brand extensions and
intellectual property. The Company is seeking capital to drive this process and address present working capital expenditures.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2015, the Company had total assets of $2,553,134, comprised primarily of cash of $866,951, accounts receivable of
$67,876, inventories of $161,977, prepayments and other current assets of $459,416, and net property and equipment of $950,208. This
compares with total assets of $2,724,349, comprised primarily of cash of $731,208, accounts receivable of $148,452, inventories of $67,252,
prepayments and other current assets of $562,318 and net property and equipment of $1,162,807 as of March 31, 2014. The Company had
current liabilities of $4,798,120 comprised of accounts payable of $843,668, management service obligation to related party of $1,000,000, short
term notes of $1,701,124 outstanding to investors and accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $1,253,328 as of March 31, 2015. This
compares with current liabilities of $1,180,487, comprised of accounts payable of $574,828 and accrued expenses and other current liabilities of
$605,659 as of March 31, 2014.
The Company depends upon debt and equity financing and, as of March 31, 2015, net cash generated from operations of OCHL, to fund
its ongoing operations and to execute its business plan. If continued funding and capital resources are unavailable at reasonable terms, or if cash
generated from operations of OCHL is inadequate to satisfy our working capital, capital expenditure and debt service requirements, the
Company may curtail its plan of operations. The Company may be required to obtain alternative or additional financing from financial
institutions or otherwise, in order to maintain and expand our existing operations. The failure by us to obtain such financing, if needed, would
have a material adverse effect upon our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Results of Operations
Pursuant to ASC Paragraphs 805-40-45-1 and 45-2 consolidated financial statements following a reverse acquisition are issued under the name
of the legal parent (accounting acquiree) but described in the notes as a continuation of the financial statements of the legal subsidiary
(accounting acquirer), with one adjustment, which is to retroactively adjust the accounting acquirer’s legal capital to reflect the legal capital of
the accounting acquiree. That adjustment is required to reflect the capital of the legal parent (the accounting acquiree). Comparative information
presented in those consolidated financial statements also is retroactively adjusted to reflect the legal capital of the legal parent (accounting
acquiree). The consolidated financial statements reflect all of the following: a. The assets and liabilities of the legal subsidiary (the accounting
acquirer) recognized and measured at their pre-combination carrying amounts. b. The assets and liabilities of the legal parent (the accounting
acquiree) recognized and measured in accordance with the guidance in Topic 805 "business combinations" . c. The retained earnings and other
equity balances of the legal subsidiary (accounting acquirer) before the business combination. d. The amount recognized as issued equity
interests in the consolidated financial statements determined by adding the issued equity interest of the legal subsidiary (the accounting acquirer)
outstanding immediately before the business combination to the fair value of the legal parent (accounting acquiree) determined in accordance
with the guidance in this Topic applicable to business combinations. However, the equity structure (that is, the number and type of equity
interests issued) reflects the equity structure of the legal parent (the accounting acquiree), including the equity interests the legal parent issued to
effect the combination. Accordingly, the equity structure of the legal subsidiary (the accounting acquirer) is restated using the exchange ratio
established in the acquisition agreement to reflect the number of shares of the legal parent (the accounting acquiree) issued in the reverse
acquisition. e. The non-controlling interest ’s proportionate share of the legal subsidiary’s (accounting acquirer’s) pre-combination carrying
amounts of retained earnings and other equity interests as discussed in paragraphs 805-40-25-2 and 805-40-30-3.
Pursuant to ASC Paragraphs 805-40-45-4 and 45-5 In calculating the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding (the denominator
of the earnings-per-share (“EPS’) calculation) during the period in which the reverse acquisition occurs: a. The number of common shares
outstanding from the beginning of that period to the acquisition date shall be computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of
common shares of the legal acquiree (accounting acquirer) outstanding during the period multiplied by the exchange ratio established in the
merger agreement. b. The number of common shares outstanding from the acquisition date to the end of that period shall be the actual number of
common shares of the legal acquirer (the accounting acquiree) outstanding during that period. The basic EPS for each comparative period before
the acquisition date presented in the consolidated financial statements following a reverse acquisition shall be calculated by dividing (a) by (b):
a. The income of the legal acquiree attributable to common shareholders in each of those periods. b. The legal acquiree’s historical weighted-
average number of common shares outstanding multiplied by the exchange ratio established in the acquisition agreement.
21
Revenues
OCHL’s revenues increased by $478,027, or 6.9% to $7,436,877 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015, from $6,958,850 in the prior
year. The increase in revenues reflects: (i) higher sales from live events, (ii) higher sales per event for corporate functions; (iii) higher sales per
event for the Friday Club events and (iv) the effect of fluctuation in the average rates of exchange used in translating U.K. sales to their U.S.
dollar equivalent. The increase in revenues was partially offset by lower revenues from a slight reduction in the Saturday Night and luxury club
events.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue of OCHL increased by $80,805, or 7.9% to $1,101,267 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015, from $1,020,462 in
the prior year. The increase in cost of revenue primarily reflects higher sales from live events, Friday Club events and corporate functions, and
the effect of fluctuation in the average rates of exchange used in translating U.K. costs to their U.S. dollar equivalent. The overall mix of events
was similar between the current and the prior year with a cost of revenue percentage of 14.8% and 14.7% of revenues for the fiscal years ended
March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Gross Margin
Gross margin of OCHL increased by $397,222, or 6.7% to $6,335,610 (85.2% of revenues) for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015,
from $5,938,388 (85.3% of revenues) in the prior year. The increase in gross margin primarily reflects the higher revenues noted above. The
overall mix of events was similar between the current and prior year.
Selling and Marketing Expenses
Selling and marketing expenses primarily consist of outside services, advertising, public relations and travel and entertainment expense.
Selling and marketing expenses for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015 decreased by $57,748 to $217,920 for the fiscal year ended
March 31, 2015, from $275,668 in the prior year reflects a decrease in event promotion costs due mainly to only having one luxury club event in
the current year versus two such events in the prior year. Selling and marketing expenses represented 2.9% and 4.0% of revenues for the fiscal
years ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Management Services – Related Parties
Management services – related parties consisted of management fees paid and accrued by the Company under agreements with Trinad
Management, LLC and Mint Group Holdings Limited (“Mint Group”)(see Note 6). During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015, the Company
paid and accrued management fees to Trinad Management, LLC of $480,343and Mint Group of $128,840.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses primarily consist of employee costs, depreciation and amortization, licenses, outside contractor’s
costs, travel and entertainment and insurance. Certain costs associated with being a publicly held corporation are also included in general and
administrative expenses, as well as bad debts expense.
General and administrative expenses increased by $417,694, or 17.2%, to $2,839,242 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015 from
$2,421,548 in the prior year. The increase in general and administrative expense for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015 compared with the
prior year was primarily due to higher wages, insurance, travel related costs and the effect of fluctuation in the average rates of exchange used in
translating U.K. expenses to their U.S. dollar equivalent. General and administrative expenses represented 38.2% and 34.8% of revenues for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses have increased by $2,885,223 or 51.4%, to $8,496,006 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015 from $5,610,783 in
the prior year. The increase in operating costs for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015 compared with the prior year due mainly to higher: (i)
consulting fees associated with the Company’s business plans and growth strategy; (ii) general and administrative expenses as noted above; and
(iii) the effect of fluctuation in the average rates of exchange used in translating U.K. expenses to their U.S. dollar equivalent.

Other (Income) Expense
Other (income) expense increased by $2,731,787 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015 compared with the prior year, which reflects
previously disclosed settlement costs associated with granting warrants to investors to purchase common stock of the Company in the amount of
$2,600,080 and interest expense of $131,707 incurred in the current fiscal year and the absence of such costs in the prior year.
Income Tax Provision
The income tax provision increased by $177,852 to $261,784 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015, from $83,932 in the prior year
primarily as a result of the increase in OCHL’s pretax income.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the
Company’s financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or
capital resources that is material to investors.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Critical accounting policies are defined as those most important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results and
that require the most difficult, subjective or complex judgments. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The estimates that we make include assumption as a going concern, fair value of long-lived
assets, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and estimates and assumptions used in valuation of equity instruments. Estimates are based on
historical experience, where applicable or other assumptions that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. We have
identified the policies described below as our critical accounting policies. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual
results may differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions. See “Notes to the Financial Statements-Note 2 Summary of
Significant Accounting Policies.”
Stock-Based Compensation for Obtaining Employee Services
The Company accounts for share-based payment transactions issued to employees under the guidance of the Topic 718 Compensation—Stock
Compensation of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC Topic 718”).
Pursuant to ASC Section 718-10-20 an employee is an individual over whom the grantor of a share-based compensation award exercises or has
the right to exercise sufficient control to establish an employer-employee relationship based on common law as illustrated in case law and
currently under U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Revenue Ruling 87-41. A nonemployee director does not satisfy this definition of
employee. Nevertheless, nonemployee directors acting in their role as members of a board of directors are treated as employees if those directors
were elected by the employer’s shareholders or appointed to a board position that will be filled by shareholder election when the existing term
expires. However, that requirement applies only to awards granted to nonemployee directors for their services as directors. Awards granted to
nonemployee directors for other services shall be accounted for as awards to non-employees.
Pursuant to ASC Paragraphs 718-10-30-2 and 718-10-30-3 a share-based payment transaction with employees shall be measured based on the
fair value of the equity instruments issued and an entity shall account for the compensation cost from share-based payment transactions with
employees in accordance with the fair value-based method, i.e., the cost of services received from employees in exchange for awards of share-
based compensation generally shall be measured based on the grant-date fair value of the equity instruments issued or the fair value of the
liabilities incurred/settled.
Pursuant to ASC Paragraphs 718-10-30-6 and 718-10-30-9 the measurement objective for equity instruments awarded to employees is to
estimate the fair value at the grant date of the equity instruments that the entity is obligated to issue when employees have rendered the requisite
service and satisfied any other conditions necessary to earn the right to benefit from the instruments (for example, to exercise share options).
That estimate is based on the share price and other pertinent factors, such as expected volatility, at the grant date. As such, the fair value of an
equity share option or similar instrument shall be estimated using a valuation technique such as an option pricing model. For this purpose, a
similar instrument is one whose fair value differs from its intrinsic value, that is, an instrument that has time value.
If the Company’s common shares are traded in one of the national exchanges the grant-date share price of the Company’s common stock will be
used to measure the fair value of the common shares issued, however, if the Company’s common shares are thinly traded the use of share prices
established in its most recent private placement memorandum (“PPM”), or weekly or monthly price observations would generally be more
appropriate than the use of daily price observations as such shares could be artificially inflated due to a larger spread between the bid and asked
quotes and lack of consistent trading in the market.
23
Pursuant to ASC Paragraph 718-10-55-21, if an observable market price is not available for a share option or similar instrument with the same or
similar terms and conditions, an entity shall estimate the fair value of that instrument using a valuation technique or model that meets the
requirements in paragraph 718-10-55-11 and takes into account, at a minimum, all of the following factors:
a.
b.
c.
d.
e.
f.
The exercise price of the option.
The expected term of the option, taking into account both the contractual term of the option and the effects of employees’ expected
exercise and post-vesting employment termination behavior: The expected life of options and similar instruments represents the period
of time the option and/or warrant are expected to be outstanding. Pursuant to paragraph 718-10-S99-1, it may be appropriate to use the
simplified method , i.e., expected term = ((vesting term + original contractual term) / 2) , if (i) A company does not have sufficient
historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term due to the limited period of time its equity
shares have been publicly traded; (ii) A company significantly changes the terms of its share option grants or the types of employees
that receive share option grants such that its historical exercise data may no longer provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate
expected term; or (iii) A company has or expects to have significant structural changes in its business such that its historical exercise
data may no longer provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term. The Company uses the simplified method to
calculate expected term of share options and similar instruments as the company does not have sufficient historical exercise data to
provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term.
The current price of the underlying share.
The expected volatility of the price of the underlying share for the expected term of the option. Pursuant to ASC Paragraph 718-10-55-
25 a newly publicly traded entity might base expectations about future volatility on the average volatilities of similar entities for an
appropriate period following their going public. A nonpublic entity might base its expected volatility on the average volatilities of
otherwise similar public entities. For purposes of identifying otherwise similar entities, an entity would likely consider characteristics
such as industry, stage of life cycle, size, and financial leverage. Because of the effects of diversification that are present in an industry
sector index, the volatility of an index should not be substituted for the average of volatilities of otherwise similar entities in a fair value
measurement. Pursuant to paragraph 718-10-S99-1 if shares of a company are thinly traded the use of weekly or monthly price
observations would generally be more appropriate than the use of daily price observations as the volatility calculation using daily
observations for such shares could be artificially inflated due to a larger spread between the bid and asked quotes and lack of consistent
trading in the market. The Company uses the average historical volatility of the comparable companies over the expected term of the
share options or similar instruments as its expected volatility.
The expected dividends on the underlying share for the expected term of the option. The expected dividend yield is based on the
Company’s current dividend yield as the best estimate of projected dividend yield for periods within the expected term of the share
options and similar instruments.
The risk-free interest rate(s) for the expected term of the option. Pursuant to ASC 718-10-55-28 a U.S. entity issuing an option on its
own shares must use as the risk-free interest rates the implied yields currently available from the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve
over the contractual term of the option if the entity is using a lattice model incorporating the option’s contractual term. If the entity is
using a closed-form model, the risk-free interest rate is the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a
remaining term equal to the expected term used as the assumption in the model.
Pursuant to ASC Paragraphs 718-10-30-11 and 718-10-30-17, a restriction that stems from the forfeitability of instruments to which employees
have not yet earned the right, such as the inability either to exercise a non-vested equity share option or to sell non-vested shares, is not reflected
in estimating the fair value of the related instruments at the grant date. Instead, those restrictions are taken into account by recognizing
compensation cost only for awards for which employees render the requisite service and a non-vested equity share or non-vested equity share
unit awarded to an employee shall be measured at its fair value as if it were vested and issued on the grant date.
Pursuant to ASC Paragraphs 718-10-35-2 and 718-10-35-3, the compensation cost for an award of share-based employee compensation
classified as equity shall be recognized over the requisite service period, with a corresponding credit to equity (generally, paid-in capital). The
requisite service period is the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for an award, which often is the
vesting period. The total amount of compensation cost recognized at the end of the requisite service period for an award of share-based
compensation shall be based on the number of instruments for which the requisite service has been rendered (that is, for which the requisite
service period has been completed). An entity shall base initial accruals of compensation cost on the estimated number of instruments for which
the requisite service is expected to be rendered. That estimate shall be revised if subsequent information indicates that the actual number of
instruments is likely to differ from previous estimates. The cumulative effect on current and prior periods of a change in the estimated number of
instruments for which the requisite service is expected to be or has been rendered shall be recognized in compensation cost in the period of the
change. Previously recognized compensation cost shall not be reversed if an employee share option (or share unit) for which the requisite service
has been rendered expires unexercised (or unconverted).
Under the requirement of ASC Paragraph 718-10-35-8, the Company made a policy decision to recognize compensation cost for an award with
only service conditions that has a graded vesting schedule on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award.
24
Equity Instruments Issued to Parties Other Than Employees for Acquiring Goods or Services
The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to parties other than employees for acquiring goods or services under the guidance of Sub-
topic 505-50 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Sub-topic 505-50”).
Pursuant to ASC paragraph 505-50-25-7, if fully vested, non-forfeitable equity instruments are issued at the date the grantor and grantee enter
into an agreement for goods or services (no specific performance is required by the grantee to retain those equity instruments), then, because of
the elimination of any obligation on the part of the counterparty to earn the equity instruments, a measurement date has been reached. A grantor
shall recognize the equity instruments when they are issued (in most cases, when the agreement is entered into). Whether the corresponding cost
is an immediate expense or a prepaid asset (or whether the debit should be characterized as contra-equity under the requirements of paragraph
505-50-45-1) depends on the specific facts and circumstances. Pursuant to ASC paragraph 505-50-45-1, a grantor may conclude that an asset
(other than a note or a receivable) has been received in return for fully vested, non-forfeitable equity instruments that are issued at the date the
grantor and grantee enter into an agreement for goods or services (and no specific performance is required by the grantee in order to retain those
equity instruments). Such an asset shall not be displayed as contra-equity by the grantor of the equity instruments. The transferability (or lack
thereof) of the equity instruments shall not affect the balance sheet display of the asset. This guidance is limited to transactions in which equity
instruments are transferred to other than employees in exchange for goods or services.
Pursuant to Paragraphs 505-50-25-8 and 505-50-25-9, an entity may grant fully vested, non-forfeitable equity instruments that are exercisable by
the grantee only after a specified period of time if the terms of the agreement provide for earlier exercisability if the grantee achieves specified
performance conditions. Any measured cost of the transaction shall be recognized in the same period(s) and in the same manner as if the entity
had paid cash for the goods or services or used cash rebates as a sales discount instead of paying with, or using, the equity instruments. A
recognized asset, expense, or sales discount shall not be reversed if a stock option that the counterparty has the right to exercise expires
unexercised.
Pursuant to ASC Paragraphs 505-50-30-2 and 505-50-30-11, share-based payment transactions with nonemployees shall be measured at the fair
value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The issuer shall
measure the fair value of the equity instruments in these transactions using the stock price and other measurement assumptions as of the earlier
of the following dates, referred to as the measurement date: (a) The date at which a commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the
equity instruments is reached (a performance commitment); or (b) The date at which the counterparty's performance is complete. If the
Company’s common shares are traded in one of the national exchanges the grant-date share price of the Company’s common stock will be used
to measure the fair value of the common shares issued, however, if the Company’s common shares are thinly traded the use of share prices
established in the Company’s most recent private placement memorandum (“PPM”), or weekly or monthly price observations would generally
be more appropriate than the use of daily price observations as such shares could be artificially inflated due to a larger spread between the bid
and asked quotes and lack of consistent trading in the market.
Pursuant to ASC Paragraph 718-10-55-21, if an observable market price is not available for a share option or similar instrument with the same or
similar terms and conditions, an entity shall estimate the fair value of that instrument using a valuation technique or model that meets the
requirements in paragraph 718-10-55-11 and takes into account, at a minimum, all of the following factors:
a.
b.
c.
d.
The exercise price of the option.
The expected term of the option, taking into account both the contractual term of the option and the effects of employees’ expected
exercise and post-vesting employment termination behavior: Pursuant to Paragraph 718-10-50-2(f)(2)(i) of the FASB Accounting
Standards Codification the expected term of share options and similar instruments represents the period of time the options and similar
instruments are expected to be outstanding taking into consideration of the contractual term of the instruments and holder’s expected
exercise behavior into the fair value (or calculated value) of the instruments. The Company uses historical data to estimate holder’s
expected exercise behavior. If the Company is a newly formed corporation or shares of the Company are thinly traded the contractual
term of the share options and similar instruments is used as the expected term of share options and similar instruments as the Company
does not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term.
The current price of the underlying share.
The expected volatility of the price of the underlying share for the expected term of the option. Pursuant to ASC Paragraph 718-10-55-
25 a newly publicly traded entity might base expectations about future volatility on the average volatilities of similar entities for an
appropriate period following their going public. A nonpublic entity might base its expected volatility on the average volatilities of
otherwise similar public entities. For purposes of identifying otherwise similar entities, an entity would likely consider characteristics
such as industry, stage of life cycle, size, and financial leverage. Because of the effects of diversification that are present in an industry
sector index, the volatility of an index should not be substituted for the average of volatilities of otherwise similar entities in a fair value
measurement. Pursuant to paragraph 718-10-S99-1 if shares of a company are thinly traded the use of weekly or monthly price
observations would generally be more appropriate than the use of daily price observations as the volatility calculation using daily
observations for such shares could be artificially inflated due to a larger spread between the bid and asked quotes and lack of consistent
trading in the market. The Company uses the average historical volatility of the comparable companies over the expected term of the
share options or similar instruments as its expected volatility.
25
e.
f.
The expected dividends on the underlying share for the expected term of the option. The expected dividend yield is based on the
Company’s current dividend yield as the best estimate of projected dividend yield for periods within the expected term of the share
options and similar instruments.
The risk-free interest rate(s) for the expected term of the option. Pursuant to ASC 718-10-55-28 a U.S. entity issuing an option on its
own shares must use as the risk-free interest rates the implied yields currently available from the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve
over the contractual term of the option if the entity is using a lattice model incorporating the option’s contractual term. If the entity is
using a closed-form model, the risk-free interest rate is the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a
remaining term equal to the expected term used as the assumption in the model.
Pursuant to ASC paragraph 505-50-S99-1, if the Company receives a right to receive future services in exchange for unvested, forfeitable equity
instruments, those equity instruments are treated as unissued for accounting purposes until the future services are received (that is, the
instruments are not considered issued until they vest). Consequently, there would be no recognition at the measurement date and no entry should
be recorded.
Going Concern
Our financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of
liabilities in the normal course of business. We have a history of losses that are likely to continue in the future. Our financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern. We may be required to cease operations
which could result in our stockholders losing almost all of their investment.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Loton, Corp
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Loton, Corp (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2015 and 2014 and the related
consolidated statements of operations, changes in equity (deficit) and cash flows for the reporting periods then ended. These financial statements
are the responsibility of the management of the Company. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated 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 audit 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 includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. An audit also includes 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
Company as of March 31, 2015 and 2014 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the reporting periods then ended, in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As
discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit at March 31, 2015, a net loss and net cash
used in operating activities for the reporting periods then ended. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as
a going concern. Management’s plans in regards to these matters are also described in Note 3. The consolidated financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Loton, Corp
March 31, 2015 and 2014
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1 - Organization and Operations
Loton, Corp
Loton, Corp (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 28, 2009.
Obar Camden Limited
Obar Camden Limited ("Obar Camden" or "OCL"), an indirect, 50%-owned subsidiary of the Company, was incorporated on November 13,
2003 as a private limited company registered in England and Wales. Obar Camden engages in the operations of the nightclub and live music
venue “KOKO” in Camden, London.
Obar Camden Holdings Limited
Obar Camden Holdings Limited ("OCHL") was incorporated on October 17, 2012 as a private limited company registered in England and
Wales. OCHL was formed by Obar Camden’s stockholders for the sole purpose of acquiring all of the registered and contributed capital of Obar
Camden. Upon formation, OCHL issued ten (10) shares of the newly formed corporation’s ordinary shares to a significant stockholder of Obar
Camden Limited No value was given to the shares issued, therefore, the shares were recorded to reflect the £0.50 par value and paid in capital
was recorded as a negative amount of (£0.50).
OCHL is a 50%-owned subsidiary of the Company and is the parent of OCL. From October 17, 2012 to November 20, 2012, the date of the
recapitalization, OCHL was inactive and had no assets or liabilities.
Merger of Obar Camden Limited
On November 20, 2012, OCHL acquired all of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of Obar Camden from its stockholders in exchange for
issuing 97,746 shares of OCHL’s ordinary shares to such stockholders. The number of shares issued represented 99.99% of the issued and
outstanding ordinary shares immediately after the consummation of the Obar Camden acquisition.
As a result of the transfer of ownership interests of the former stockholders of Obar Camden, for financial statement reporting purposes, the
merger between OCHL and Obar Camden has been treated as a reverse acquisition with Obar Camden deemed the accounting acquirer and
OCHL deemed the accounting acquiree under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with section 805-10-55 of the FASB
Accounting Standards Codification. The reverse merger is deemed a capital transaction and the net assets of Obar Camden (the accounting
acquirer) were carried forward to OCHL (the legal acquirer and the reporting entity) at their carrying value before the acquisition. The
acquisition process utilized the capital structure of OCHL and the assets and liabilities of Obar Camden which were recorded at historical cost.
The equity of the combined entity is the historical equity of Obar Camden retroactively restated to reflect the number of shares issued by OCHL
in the transaction.
Acquisition of Obar Camden Holdings Limited Treated as a Reverse Acquisition
On April 28, 2014, the Company consummated an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company,
Loton Acquisition Sub I, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Acquisition Sub”) and KoKo (Camden) Holdings (US), Inc. (“KoKo Parent”), a
Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of JJAT Corp. (“JJAT”), a Delaware corporation wholly-owned by Robert Ellin, the
Company’s Executive Chairman, President, Director and controlling shareholder (“Mr. Ellin”), and his affiliates (the “Merger”). As a result of
the Merger, KoKo Parent became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and the Company’s primary business became that of KoKo
Parent and its subsidiaries, KoKo (Camden) Limited, a private limited company registered in England and Wales (“KoKo UK”) which owns
50% of OCHL, which in turn wholly-owns its operating subsidiary OBAR Camden. Upon the closing of the Merger, pursuant to the terms of the
Merger Agreement, KoKo Parent’s former sole shareholder, JJAT, received 29,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, or
approximately 77.2% of the issued and outstanding common stock immediately after the consummation of the Merger Agreement.
As a result of the controlling financial interest of the former stockholder of OCHL, for financial statement reporting purposes, the Merger has
been treated as a reverse acquisition with OCHL deemed the accounting acquirer and the Company deemed the accounting acquiree under the
acquisition method of accounting in accordance with section 805-10-55 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The reverse acquisition
is deemed a capital transaction and the net assets of OCHL (the accounting acquirer) are carried forward to the Company (the legal acquirer and
the reporting entity) at their carrying value before the acquisition. The acquisition process utilizes the capital structure of the Company and the
assets and liabilities of OCHL which are recorded at their historical cost. The equity of the Company is the historical equity of OCHL, taking
into consideration the 50% non-controlling interest, retroactively restated to reflect the number of shares issued by the Company in the
transaction.

Note 2 - Significant and Critical Accounting Policies and Practices
The Management of the Company is responsible for the selection and use of appropriate accounting policies and the appropriateness of
accounting policies and their application. Critical accounting policies and practices are those that are both most important to the portrayal of the
Company’s financial condition and results and require management’s most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often as a result of the
need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. The Company’s significant and critical accounting policies and
practices are disclosed below as required by generally accepted accounting principles.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
Fiscal Year End
On June 30, 2014, in connection with the closing of the Merger, the Company changed its fiscal year-end date from April 30 to March 31.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions and Critical Accounting Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date(s) of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period(s).
Critical accounting estimates are estimates for which (a) the nature of the estimate is material due to the levels of subjectivity and judgment
necessary to account for highly uncertain matters or the susceptibility of such matters to change and (b) the impact of the estimate on financial
condition or operating performance is material. The Company’s critical accounting estimates and assumptions affecting the financial statements
were:
(i) Assumption as a going concern : Management assumes that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates
continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.
(ii) Allowance for doubtful accounts : Management’s estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts is based on historical sales, historical
loss levels, and an analysis of the collectability of individual accounts; and general economic conditions that may affect a client’s ability
to pay. The Company evaluated the key factors and assumptions used to develop the allowance in determining that it is reasonable in
relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.
(iii) Inventory Obsolescence and Markdowns : The Company’s estimate of potentially excess and slow-moving inventories is based on
evaluation of inventory levels and aging, review of inventory turns and historical sales experiences. The Company’s estimate of reserve
for inventory shrinkage is based on the historical results of physical inventory cycle counts.
(iv) Fair value of long-lived assets: Fair value is generally determined using the asset’s expected future discounted cash flows or market
value, if readily determinable. If long-lived assets are determined to be recoverable, but the newly determined remaining estimated
useful lives are shorter than originally estimated, the net book values of the long-lived assets are depreciated over the newly determined
remaining estimated useful lives. The Company considers the following to be some examples of important indicators that may trigger
an impairment review: (i) significant under-performance or losses of assets relative to expected historical or projected future operating
results; (ii) significant changes in the manner or use of assets or in the Company’s overall strategy with respect to the manner or use of
the acquired assets or changes in the Company’s overall business strategy; (iii) significant negative industry or economic trends;
(iv) increased competitive pressures; (v) a significant decline in the Company’s stock price for a sustained period of time; and
(vi) regulatory changes. The Company evaluates acquired assets for potential impairment indicators at least annually and more
frequently upon the occurrence of such events;
(v) Valuation allowance for deferred tax assets: Management assumes that the realization of the Company’s net deferred tax assets
resulting from its net operating loss (“NOL”) carry–forwards for Federal income tax purposes that may be offset against future taxable
income was not considered more likely than not and accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the net loss carry-forwards are offset by a
full valuation allowance. Management made this assumption based on (a) the Company has incurred recurring losses, (b) general
economic conditions, and (c) its ability to raise additional funds to support its daily operations by way of a public or private offering,
among other factors;
(vi) Estimates and assumptions used in valuation of equity instruments: Management estimates expected term of share options and similar
instruments, expected volatility of the Company’s common shares and the method used to estimate it, expected annual rate of quarterly
dividends, and risk free rate(s) to value share options and similar instruments.
34
These significant accounting estimates or assumptions bear the risk of change due to the fact that there are uncertainties attached to these
estimates or assumptions, and certain estimates or assumptions are difficult to measure or value.
Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable in relation to the financial
statements taken as a whole under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of
assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.
Management regularly evaluates the key factors and assumptions used to develop the estimates utilizing currently available information, changes
in facts and circumstances, historical experience and reasonable assumptions. After such evaluations, if deemed appropriate, those estimates are
adjusted accordingly.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Principles of Consolidation
The Company applies the guidance of Topic 810 “Consolidation” of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") to determine
whether and how to consolidate another entity. Pursuant to ASC Paragraph 810-10-15-10 all majority-owned subsidiaries—all entities in which
a parent has a controlling financial interest—shall be consolidated except (1) when control does not rest with the parent, the majority owner; (2)
if the parent is a broker-dealer within the scope of Topic 940 and control is likely to be temporary; (3) consolidation by an investment company
within the scope of Topic 946 of a non-investment-company investee. Pursuant to ASC Paragraph 810-10-15-8 the usual condition for a
controlling financial interest is ownership of a majority voting interest, and, therefore, as a general rule ownership by one reporting entity,
directly or indirectly, of more than 50 percent of the outstanding voting shares of another entity is a condition pointing toward consolidation. The
power to control may also exist with a lesser percentage of ownership, for example, by contract, lease, agreement with other stockholders, or by
court decree . The Company consolidates all less-than-majority-owned subsidiaries in which the parent’s power to control exists.
The Company's consolidated subsidiary and/or entity is as follows:
Name of consolidated subsidiary

incorporation or organization

Reverse Acquisitions
Identification of the Accounting Acquirer
The Company considers factors in ASC paragraphs 805-10-55-10 through 55-15 in identifying accounting acquirer. The Company uses the
existence of a controlling financial interest to identify the acquirer—the entity that obtains control of the acquiree. Other pertinent facts and
circumstances also shall be considered in identifying the acquirer in a business combination effected by exchanging equity interests, including
the following: a. The relative voting rights in the combined entity after the business combination. The acquirer usually is the combining entity
whose owners as a group retain or receive the largest portion of the voting rights in the combined entity taking into consideration the existence of
any unusual or special voting arrangements and options, warrants, or convertible securities. b. The existence of a large minority voting interest in
the combined entity if no other owner or organized group of owners has a significant voting interest. The acquirer usually is the combining entity
whose single owner or organized group of owners holds the largest minority voting interest in the combined entity. c. The composition of the
governing body of the combined entity. The acquirer usually is the combining entity whose owners have the ability to elect or appoint or to
remove a majority of the members of the governing body of the combined entity. d. The composition of the senior management of the combined
entity. The acquirer usually is the combining entity whose former management dominates the management of the combined entity. e. The terms
of the exchange of equity interests. The acquirer usually is the combining entity that pays a premium over the pre-combination fair value of the
equity interests of the other combining entity or entities. The acquirer usually is the combining entity whose relative size (measured in, for
example, assets, revenues, or earnings) is significantly larger than that of the other combining entity or entities.
35
Pursuant to ASC Paragraph 805-40-05-2 as one example of a reverse acquisition, a private operating entity may arrange for a public entity to
acquire its equity interests in exchange for the equity interests of the public entity. In this situation, the public entity is the legal acquirer because
it issued its equity interests, and the private entity is the legal acquiree because its equity interests were acquired. However, application of the
guidance in paragraphs 805-10-55-11 through 55-15 results in identifying: a. The public entity as the acquiree for accounting purposes (the
accounting acquiree) and b. The private entity as the acquirer for accounting purposes (the accounting acquirer).
Measuring the Consideration Transferred and Non-controlling Interest
Pursuant to ASC Paragraphs 805-40-30-2 and 30-3 in a reverse acquisition, the accounting acquirer usually issues no consideration for the
acquiree . Instead, the accounting acquiree usually issues its equity shares to the owners of the accounting acquirer. Accordingly, the
acquisition-date fair value of the consideration transferred by the accounting acquirer for its interest in the accounting acquiree is based on the
number of equity interests the legal subsidiary would have had to issue to give the owners of the legal parent the same percentage equity interest
in the combined entity that results from the reverse acquisition. The fair value of the number of equity interests calculated in that way can be
used as the fair value of consideration transferred in exchange for the acquiree. The assets and liabilities of the legal acquiree are measured and
recognized in the consolidated financial statements at their pre-combination carrying amounts (see paragraph 805-40-45-2(a)). Therefore, in a
reverse acquisition the non-controlling interest reflects the non-controlling shareholders’ proportionate interest in the pre-combination carrying
amounts of the legal acquiree’s net assets even though the non-controlling interests in other acquisitions are measured at their fair values at the
acquisition date.
Presentation of Consolidated Financial Statements Post Reverse Acquisition
Pursuant to ASC Paragraphs 805-40-45-1 and 45-2 consolidated financial statements following a reverse acquisition are issued under the name
of the legal parent (accounting acquiree) but described in the notes as a continuation of the financial statements of the legal subsidiary
(accounting acquirer), with one adjustment, which is to retroactively adjust the accounting acquirer’s legal capital to reflect the legal capital of
the accounting acquiree. That adjustment is required to reflect the capital of the legal parent (the accounting acquiree). Comparative information
presented in those consolidated financial statements also is retroactively adjusted to reflect the legal capital of the legal parent (accounting
acquiree). The consolidated financial statements reflect all of the following: a. The assets and liabilities of the legal subsidiary (the accounting
acquirer) recognized and measured at their pre-combination carrying amounts. b. The assets and liabilities of the legal parent (the accounting
acquiree) recognized and measured in accordance with the guidance in Topic 805 "business combinations" . c. The retained earnings and other
equity balances of the legal subsidiary (accounting acquirer) before the business combination. d. The amount recognized as issued equity
interests in the consolidated financial statements determined by adding the issued equity interest of the legal subsidiary (the accounting acquirer)
outstanding immediately before the business combination to the fair value of the legal parent (accounting acquiree) determined in accordance
with the guidance in this Topic applicable to business combinations. However, the equity structure (that is, the number and type of equity
interests issued) reflects the equity structure of the legal parent (the accounting acquiree), including the equity interests the legal parent issued to
effect the combination. Accordingly, the equity structure of the legal subsidiary (the accounting acquirer) is restated using the exchange ratio
established in the acquisition agreement to reflect the number of shares of the legal parent (the accounting acquiree) issued in the reverse
acquisition. e. The non-controlling interest ’s proportionate share of the legal subsidiary’s (accounting acquirer’s) pre-combination carrying
amounts of retained earnings and other equity interests as discussed in paragraphs 805-40-25-2 and 805-40-30-3.
Pursuant to ASC Paragraphs 805-40-45-4 and 45-5 In calculating the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding (the denominator
of the earnings-per-share (“EPS”) calculation) during the period in which the reverse acquisition occurs: a. The number of common shares
outstanding from the beginning of that period to the acquisition date shall be computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of
common shares of the legal acquiree (accounting acquirer) outstanding during the period multiplied by the exchange ratio established in the
merger agreement. b. The number of common shares outstanding from the acquisition date to the end of that period shall be the actual number of
common shares of the legal acquirer (the accounting acquiree) outstanding during that period. The basic EPS for each comparative period before
the acquisition date presented in the consolidated financial statements following a reverse acquisition shall be calculated by dividing (a) by (b):
a. The income of the legal acquiree attributable to common shareholders in each of those periods. b. The legal acquiree’s historical weighted-
average number of common shares outstanding multiplied by the exchange ratio established in the acquisition agreement.
36
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company follows paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about fair value of its financial
instruments and has adopted paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to measure
the fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification establishes a framework for
measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase
consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards
Codification establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three (3) broad
levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the
lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three (3) levels of fair value hierarchy defined by paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting
Standards Codification are described below:
Level 1 Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.
Level 2 Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the
reporting date.
Level 3 Pricing inputs that are generally observable inputs and not corroborated by market data.
Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or
similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest
priority to unobservable inputs. If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above,
the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable,
income tax payable, accrued expenses, and other current liabilities approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these
instruments.
Transactions involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm's-length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive,
free-market dealings may not exist. Representations about transactions with related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related party
transactions were consummated on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm's-length transactions unless such representations can be
substantiated.
Fair Value of Non-Financial Assets or Liabilities Measured on a Recurring Basis
The Company’s non-financial assets include inventories. The Company identifies potentially excess and slow-moving inventories by evaluating
turn rates, inventory levels and other factors. Excess quantities are identified through evaluation of inventory aging, review of inventory turns
and historical sales experiences. The Company provides lower of cost or market reserves for such identified excess and slow-moving inventories.
The Company establishes a reserve for inventory shrinkage, if any, based on the historical results of physical inventory cycle counts.
Carrying Value, Recoverability and Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company has adopted Section 360-10-35 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for its long-lived assets. Pursuant to ASC
Paragraph 360-10-35-17 an impairment loss shall be recognized only if the carrying amount of a long-lived asset (asset group) is not recoverable
and exceeds its fair value. The carrying amount of a long-lived asset (asset group) is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted
cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset (asset group). That assessment shall be based on the carrying
amount of the asset (asset group) at the date it is tested for recoverability. An impairment loss shall be measured as the amount by which the
carrying amount of a long-lived asset (asset group) exceeds its fair value. Pursuant to ASC Paragraph 360-10-35-20 if an impairment loss is
recognized, the adjusted carrying amount of a long-lived asset shall be its new cost basis. For a depreciable long-lived asset, the new cost basis
shall be depreciated (amortized) over the remaining useful life of that asset. Restoration of a previously recognized impairment loss is prohibited.
Pursuant to ASC Paragraph 360-10-35-21, the Company’s long-lived asset (asset group) is tested for recoverability whenever events or changes
in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company considers the following to be some examples of such
events or changes in circumstances that may trigger an impairment review: (a) significant decrease in the market price of a long-lived asset (asset
group); (b) A significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which a long-lived asset (asset group) is being used or in its physical
condition; (c) A significant adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate that could affect the value of a long-lived asset (asset
group), including an adverse action or assessment by a regulator; (d) An accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally
expected for the acquisition or construction of a long-lived asset (asset group); (e) A current-period operating or cash flow loss combined with a
history of operating or cash flow losses or a projection or forecast that demonstrates continuing losses associated with the use of a long-lived
asset (asset group); and (f) A current expectation that, more likely than not, a long-lived asset (asset group) will be sold or otherwise disposed of
significantly before the end of its previously estimated useful life. The Company tests its long-lived assets for potential impairment indicators at
least annually and more frequently upon the occurrence of such events.
37
Pursuant to ASC Paragraphs 360-10-45-4 and 360-10-45-5, an impairment loss recognized for a long-lived asset (asset group) to be held and
used shall be included in income from continuing operations before income taxes in the income statement of a business entity. If a subtotal such
as income from operations is presented, it shall include the amount of that loss. A gain or loss recognized on the sale of a long-lived asset
(disposal group) that is not a component of an entity shall be included in income from continuing operations before income taxes in the income
statement of a business entity. If a subtotal such as income from operations is presented, it shall include the amounts of those gains or losses.
Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Pursuant to FASB ASC paragraph 310-10-35-47, trade receivables that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future
shall be reported in the balance sheet at outstanding principal adjusted for any charge-offs and the allowance for doubtful accounts. The
Company follows FASB ASC paragraphs 310-10-35-7 through 310-10-35-10 to estimate the allowance for doubtful accounts. Pursuant to FASB
ASC paragraph 310-10- 35-9, losses from uncollectible receivables shall be accrued when both of the following conditions are met: (a)
information available before the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued (as discussed in Section 855-10-25) indicates that it
is probable that an asset has been impaired at the date of the financial statements, and (b) the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated.
Those conditions may be considered in relation to individual receivables or in relation to groups of similar types of receivables. If the conditions
are met, accrual shall be made even though the particular receivables that are uncollectible may not be identifiable. The Company reviews
individually each trade receivable for collectability and performs on-going credit evaluations of its customers and adjusts credit limits based
upon payment history and the customer’s current credit worthiness, as determined by the review of their current credit information; and
determines the allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical write-off experience, customer specific facts and general economic
conditions that may affect a client’s ability to pay. Bad debt expense is included in general and administrative expenses, if any.
Pursuant to FASB ASC paragraph 310-10-35-41, credit losses for trade receivables (uncollectible trade receivables), which may be for all or part
of a particular trade receivable, shall be deducted from the allowance. The related trade receivable balance shall be charged off in the period in
which the trade receivables are deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of trade receivables previously charged off shall be recorded when received.
The Company charges off its trade account receivables against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential
for recovery is considered remote.
There was no allowance for doubtful accounts at March 31, 2015 or 2014.
Inventories
Inventory Valuation
The Company values inventories, consisting of consumables and purchased merchandise for resale, at the lower of cost or market. Cost is
determined on the first-in and first-out (“FIFO”) method. The Company reduces inventories for the diminution of value, resulting from product
obsolescence, damage or other issues affecting marketability, equal to the difference between the cost of the inventory and its estimated market
value. Factors utilized in the determination of estimated market value include (i) current sales data, (ii) estimates of future demand, (iii)
competitive pricing pressures, and (iv) product expiration dates.
Inventory Obsolescence and Markdowns
The Company evaluates its current level of inventories considering historical sales and other factors and, based on this evaluation, classify
inventory markdowns in the statements of income as a component of cost of sales pursuant to Paragraph 420-10-S99 of the FASB Accounting
Standards Codification to adjust inventories to net realizable value. These markdowns are estimates, which could vary significantly from actual
requirements if future economic conditions, customer demand or competition differ from expectations.
The Company normally carries approximately four weeks’ worth of pre-packaged and fresh food, soft drinks and liquor supplies and replenishes
them when the number of individual items falls below the reorder point.
Lower of Cost or Market Adjustments
There was no lower of cost or market adjustments for the reporting period ended March 31, 2015 or 2014.
38
Slow-Moving or Obsolescence Markdowns
The Company recorded no inventory obsolescence adjustments for the reporting period ended March 31, 2015 or 2014.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Expenditures for major additions and betterments are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are
charged to operations as incurred. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method (after taking into account their respective estimated
residual values) over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets as follows:
Leasehold improvement
Furniture, fixtures
Production and entertainment equipment
Estimated Useful
Life (Years)
25
5
10
(*) Amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease or the estimated useful lives, whichever is shorter.
Upon sale or retirement, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in the
statements of operations.
Leases
Lease agreements are evaluated to determine whether they are capital leases or operating leases in accordance with paragraph 840-10-25-1 of the
FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Paragraph 840-10-25-1”). Pursuant to Paragraph 840-10-25-1, a lessee and a lessor shall consider
whether a lease meets any of the following four criteria as part of classifying the lease at its inception under the guidance in the Lessees
Subsection of this Section (for the lessee) and the Lessors Subsection of this Section (for the lessor): a. Transfer of ownership. The lease
transfers ownership of the property to the lessee by the end of the lease term. This criterion is met in situations in which the lease agreement
provides for the transfer of title at or shortly after the end of the lease term in exchange for the payment of a nominal fee, for example, the
minimum required by statutory regulation to transfer title. b. Bargain purchase option. The lease contains a bargain purchase option. c. Lease
term. The lease term is equal to 75 percent or more of the estimated economic life of the leased property. d. Minimum lease payments. The
present value at the beginning of the lease term of the minimum lease payments, excluding that portion of the payments representing executory
costs such as insurance, maintenance, and taxes to be paid by the lessor, including any profit thereon, equals or exceeds 90 percent of the excess
of the fair value of the leased property to the lessor at lease inception over any related investment tax credit retained by the lessor and expected
to be realized by the lessor. In accordance with paragraphs 840-10- 25-29 and 840-10-25-30, if at its inception a lease meets any of the four lease
classification criteria in Paragraph 840-10-25-1, the lease shall be classified by the lessee as a capital lease; and if none of the four criteria in
Paragraph 840-10-25-1 are met, the lease shall be classified by the lessee as an operating lease. Pursuant to Paragraph 840-10-25-31 a lessee
shall compute the present value of the minimum lease payments using the lessee's incremental borrowing rate unless both of the following
conditions are met, in which circumstance the lessee shall use the implicit rate: a. It is practicable for the lessee to learn the implicit rate
computed by the lessor. b. The implicit rate computed by the lessor is less than the lessee's incremental borrowing rate. Capital lease assets are
depreciated on a straight line method, over the capital lease assets estimated useful lives consistent with the Company’s normal depreciation
policy for tangible fixed assets. Interest charges are expensed over the period of the lease in relation to the carrying value of the capital lease
obligation.
Operating leases primarily relate to the Company’s leases of nightclub and concert performance venue spaces. When the terms of an operating
lease include tenant improvement allowances, periods of free rent, rent concessions, and/or rent escalation amounts, the Company establishes a
deferred rent liability for the difference between the scheduled rent payment and the straight-line rent expense recognized, which is amortized
over the underlying lease term on a straight-line basis as a reduction of rent expense.
Intangible Assets Other Than Goodwill
The Company has adopted Subtopic 350-30 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for intangible assets other than goodwill. Under the
requirements, the Company amortizes the acquisition costs of intangible assets other than goodwill on a straight-line basis over their estimated
useful lives, the terms of the exclusive licenses and/or agreements, or the terms of legal lives of the patents, whichever is shorter. Upon
becoming fully amortized, the related cost and accumulated amortization are removed from the accounts.
Website Development Costs
The Company has adopted Subtopic 350-50 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for website development costs. Under the
requirements of Sections 350-50-15 and 350-50-25, the Company capitalizes c osts incurred to develop a website as website development costs,
which are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of three (3) years. Upon becoming fully amortized, the related cost
and accumulated amortization are removed from the accounts.
39
Related Parties
The Company follows subtopic 850-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for the identification of related parties and disclosure of
related party transactions.
Pursuant to section 850-10-20 the related parties include a) affiliates of the Company (“Affiliate” means, with respect to any specified Person,
any other Person that, directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by or is under common control with such
Person, as such terms are used in and construed under Rule 405 under the Securities Act); b) entities for which investments in their equity
securities would be required, absent the election of the fair value option under the Fair Value Option Subsection of section 825–10–15, to be
accounted for by the equity method by the investing entity; c) trusts for the benefit of employees, such as pension and profit-sharing trusts that
are managed by or under the trusteeship of management; d) principal owners of the Company; e) management of the Company; f) other parties
with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an
extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests; and g) other parties that can
significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or that have an ownership interest in one of the transacting
parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its
own separate interests.
The financial statements shall include disclosures of material related party transactions, other than compensation arrangements, expense
allowances, and other similar items in the ordinary course of business. However, disclosure of transactions that are eliminated in the preparation
of consolidated or combined financial statements is not required in those statements. The disclosures shall include: a) the nature of the
relationship(s) involved; b) a description of the transactions, including transactions to which no amounts or nominal amounts were ascribed, for
each of the periods for which income statements are presented, and such other information deemed necessary to an understanding of the effects
of the transactions on the financial statements; c) the dollar amounts of transactions for each of the periods for which income statements are
presented and the effects of any change in the method of establishing the terms from that used in the preceding period; and d) amounts due from
or to related parties as of the date of each balance sheet presented and, if not otherwise apparent, the terms and manner of settlement.
Commitments and Contingencies
The Company follows subtopic 450-20 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification to report accounting for contingencies. Certain
conditions may exist as of the date the consolidated financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will
only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment
inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or
unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims
as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.
If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be
estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a
potentially material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the
contingent liability, and an estimate of the range of possible losses, if determinable and material, would be disclosed.
Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be
disclosed.
Revenue Recognition
The Company follows paragraph 605-10-S99-1 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for revenue recognition. The Company will
recognize revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when all of the
following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the product has been shipped or the services have been rendered
to the customer, (iii) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured. In addition to the aforementioned
general policy, the following are the specific revenue recognition policies:
Revenue from ticket sales from events and concerts is recognized when the performance occurs. Ticket sales collected in advance of an event
date are recorded as deferred revenue.
The Company evaluates the criteria outlined in Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC")
Subtopic 605-45, "Revenue Recognition—Principal Agent Considerations," in determining whether it is appropriate to record the gross amount
of revenues and related costs or the net revenues. Under the guidance of ASC Subtopic 605-45, if the Company is the primary obligor to perform
the services being sold, has general inventory risk as it pertains to recruiting and compensating the talent, has the ability to control the ticket
pricing, has discretion in selecting the talent, is involved in the production of the event, generally bears the majority of the credit or collection
risk, or has several but not all of these indicators, revenue is recorded gross. If the Company does not have several of these indicators, it records
revenues or losses on a net basis.
40
In accordance with the guidance Subtopic 605-45, for the majority of the Company's events, the Company has several of the above indicators
and therefore it recognizes revenue gross as a principal. Additionally, the Company charges for and collects ticketing and credit card processing
surcharges and records the amounts in revenue on a gross basis. Actual expenses paid to the ticket service provider and credit card merchant
processors are reflected in expenses.
Net sales of products and services represent the invoiced value of goods or services, net of value added taxes (“VAT”). The Company is subject
to VAT which is levied on all of the Company’s products and services at the rate of 20% on the invoiced value of sales. Sales or Output VAT is
borne by customers in addition to the invoiced value of sales and purchases and Purchase or Input VAT is borne by the Company in addition to
the invoiced value of purchases.
Stock-Based Compensation for Obtaining Employee Services
The Company accounts for share-based payment transactions issued to employees under the guidance of the Topic 718 Compensation—Stock
Compensation of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC Topic 718”).
Pursuant to ASC Section 718-10-20 an employee is an individual over whom the grantor of a share-based compensation award exercises or has
the right to exercise sufficient control to establish an employer-employee relationship based on common law as illustrated in case law and
currently under U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Revenue Ruling 87-41. A nonemployee director does not satisfy this definition of
employee. Nevertheless, nonemployee directors acting in their role as members of a board of directors are treated as employees if those directors
were elected by the employer’s shareholders or appointed to a board position that will be filled by shareholder election when the existing term
expires. However, that requirement applies only to awards granted to nonemployee directors for their services as directors. Awards granted to
nonemployee directors for other services shall be accounted for as awards to non-employees.
Pursuant to ASC Paragraphs 718-10-30-2 and 718-10-30-3 a share-based payment transaction with employees shall be measured based on the
fair value of the equity instruments issued and an entity shall account for the compensation cost from share-based payment transactions with
employees in accordance with the fair value-based method, i.e., the cost of services received from employees in exchange for awards of share-
based compensation generally shall be measured based on the grant-date fair value of the equity instruments issued or the fair value of the
liabilities incurred/settled.
Pursuant to ASC Paragraphs 718-10-30-6 and 718-10-30-9 the measurement objective for equity instruments awarded to employees is to
estimate the fair value at the grant date of the equity instruments that the entity is obligated to issue when employees have rendered the requisite
service and satisfied any other conditions necessary to earn the right to benefit from the instruments (for example, to exercise share options).
That estimate is based on the share price and other pertinent factors, such as expected volatility, at the grant date. As such, the fair value of an
equity share option or similar instrument shall be estimated using a valuation technique such as an option pricing model. For this purpose, a
similar instrument is one whose fair value differs from its intrinsic value, that is, an instrument that has time value.
If the Company’s common shares are traded in one of the national exchanges the grant-date share price of the Company’s common stock will be
used to measure the fair value of the common shares issued, however, if the Company’s common shares are thinly traded the use of share prices
established in its most recent private placement memorandum (“PPM”), or weekly or monthly price observations would generally be more
appropriate than the use of daily price observations as such shares could be artificially inflated due to a larger spread between the bid and asked
quotes and lack of consistent trading in the market.
Pursuant to ASC Paragraph 718-10-55-21, if an observable market price is not available for a share option or similar instrument with the same or
similar terms and conditions, an entity shall estimate the fair value of that instrument using a valuation technique or model that meets the
requirements in paragraph 718-10-55-11 and takes into account, at a minimum, all of the following factors:
a.
b.
The exercise price of the option.
The expected term of the option, taking into account both the contractual term of the option and the effects of employees’ expected
exercise and post-vesting employment termination behavior: The expected life of options and similar instruments represents the period
of time the option and/or warrant are expected to be outstanding. Pursuant to paragraph 718-10-S99-1, it may be appropriate to use the
simplified method , i.e., expected term = ((vesting term + original contractual term) / 2) , if (i) A company does not have sufficient
historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term due to the limited period of time its equity
shares have been publicly traded; (ii) A company significantly changes the terms of its share option grants or the types of employees
that receive share option grants such that its historical exercise data may no longer provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate
expected term; or (iii) A company has or expects to have significant structural changes in its business such that its historical exercise
data may no longer provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term. The Company uses the simplified method to
calculate expected term of share options and similar instruments as the company does not have sufficient historical exercise data to
provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term.
c.
The current price of the underlying share.
41
d.
e.
f.
The expected volatility of the price of the underlying share for the expected term of the option. Pursuant to ASC Paragraph 718-10-55-
25 a newly publicly traded entity might base expectations about future volatility on the average volatilities of similar entities for an
appropriate period following their going public. A nonpublic entity might base its expected volatility on the average volatilities of
otherwise similar public entities. For purposes of identifying otherwise similar entities, an entity would likely consider characteristics
such as industry, stage of life cycle, size, and financial leverage. Because of the effects of diversification that are present in an industry
sector index, the volatility of an index should not be substituted for the average of volatilities of otherwise similar entities in a fair value
measurement. Pursuant to paragraph 718-10-S99-1 if shares of a company are thinly traded the use of weekly or monthly price
observations would generally be more appropriate than the use of daily price observations as the volatility calculation using daily
observations for such shares could be artificially inflated due to a larger spread between the bid and asked quotes and lack of consistent
trading in the market. The Company uses the average historical volatility of the comparable companies over the expected term of the
share options or similar instruments as its expected volatility.
The expected dividends on the underlying share for the expected term of the option. The expected dividend yield is based on the
Company’s current dividend yield as the best estimate of projected dividend yield for periods within the expected term of the share
options and similar instruments.
The risk-free interest rate(s) for the expected term of the option. Pursuant to ASC 718-10-55-28 a U.S. entity issuing an option on its
own shares must use as the risk-free interest rates the implied yields currently available from the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve
over the contractual term of the option if the entity is using a lattice model incorporating the option’s contractual term. If the entity is
using a closed-form model, the risk-free interest rate is the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a
remaining term equal to the expected term used as the assumption in the model.
Pursuant to ASC Paragraphs 718-10-30-11 and 718-10-30-17, a restriction that stems from the forfeitability of instruments to which employees
have not yet earned the right, such as the inability either to exercise a non-vested equity share option or to sell non-vested shares, is not reflected
in estimating the fair value of the related instruments at the grant date. Instead, those restrictions are taken into account by recognizing
compensation cost only for awards for which employees render the requisite service and a non-vested equity share or non-vested equity share
unit awarded to an employee shall be measured at its fair value as if it were vested and issued on the grant date.
Pursuant to ASC Paragraphs 718-10-35-2 and 718-10-35-3, the compensation cost for an award of share-based employee compensation
classified as equity shall be recognized over the requisite service period, with a corresponding credit to equity (generally, paid-in capital). The
requisite service period is the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for an award, which often is the
vesting period. The total amount of compensation cost recognized at the end of the requisite service period for an award of share-based
compensation shall be based on the number of instruments for which the requisite service has been rendered (that is, for which the requisite
service period has been completed). An entity shall base initial accruals of compensation cost on the estimated number of instruments for which
the requisite service is expected to be rendered. That estimate shall be revised if subsequent information indicates that the actual number of
instruments is likely to differ from previous estimates. The cumulative effect on current and prior periods of a change in the estimated number of
instruments for which the requisite service is expected to be or has been rendered shall be recognized in compensation cost in the period of the
change. Previously recognized compensation cost shall not be reversed if an employee share option (or share unit) for which the requisite service
has been rendered expires unexercised (or unconverted).
Under the requirement of ASC Paragraph 718-10-35-8, the Company made a policy decision to recognize compensation cost for an award with
only service conditions that has a graded vesting schedule on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award.
Equity Instruments Issued to Parties Other Than Employees for Acquiring Goods or Services
The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to parties other than employees for acquiring goods or services under the guidance of Sub-
topic 505-50 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Sub-topic 505-50”).
Pursuant to ASC paragraph 505-50-25-7, if fully vested, non-forfeitable equity instruments are issued at the date the grantor and grantee enter
into an agreement for goods or services (no specific performance is required by the grantee to retain those equity instruments), then, because of
the elimination of any obligation on the part of the counterparty to earn the equity instruments, a measurement date has been reached. A grantor
shall recognize the equity instruments when they are issued (in most cases, when the agreement is entered into). Whether the corresponding cost
is an immediate expense or a prepaid asset (or whether the debit should be characterized as contra-equity under the requirements of paragraph
505-50-45-1) depends on the specific facts and circumstances. Pursuant to ASC paragraph 505-50-45-1, a grantor may conclude that an asset
(other than a note or a receivable) has been received in return for fully vested, non-forfeitable equity instruments that are issued at the date the
grantor and grantee enter into an agreement for goods or services (and no specific performance is required by the grantee in order to retain those
equity instruments). Such an asset shall not be displayed as contra-equity by the grantor of the equity instruments. The transferability (or lack
thereof) of the equity instruments shall not affect the balance sheet display of the asset. This guidance is limited to transactions in which equity
instruments are transferred to other than employees in exchange for goods or services.
42
Pursuant to Paragraphs 505-50-25-8 and 505-50-25-9, an entity may grant fully vested, non-forfeitable equity instruments that are exercisable by
the grantee only after a specified period of time if the terms of the agreement provide for earlier exercisability if the grantee achieves specified
performance conditions. Any measured cost of the transaction shall be recognized in the same period(s) and in the same manner as if the entity
had paid cash for the goods or services or used cash rebates as a sales discount instead of paying with, or using, the equity instruments. A
recognized asset, expense, or sales discount shall not be reversed if a stock option that the counterparty has the right to exercise expires
unexercised.
Pursuant to ASC Paragraphs 505-50-30-2 and 505-50-30-11, share-based payment transactions with nonemployees shall be measured at the fair
value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The issuer shall
measure the fair value of the equity instruments in these transactions using the stock price and other measurement assumptions as of the earlier
of the following dates, referred to as the measurement date: (a) The date at which a commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the
equity instruments is reached (a performance commitment); or (b) The date at which the counterparty's performance is complete. If the
Company’s common shares are traded in one of the national exchanges the grant-date share price of the Company’s common stock will be used
to measure the fair value of the common shares issued, however, if the Company’s common shares are thinly traded the use of share prices
established in the Company’s most recent private placement memorandum (“PPM”), or weekly or monthly price observations would generally
be more appropriate than the use of daily price observations as such shares could be artificially inflated due to a larger spread between the bid
and asked quotes and lack of consistent trading in the market.
Pursuant to ASC Paragraph 718-10-55-21, if an observable market price is not available for a share option or similar instrument with the same or
similar terms and conditions, an entity shall estimate the fair value of that instrument using a valuation technique or model that meets the
requirements in paragraph 718-10-55-11 and takes into account, at a minimum, all of the following factors:
a.
b.
c.
d.
e.
f.
The exercise price of the option.
The expected term of the option, taking into account both the contractual term of the option and the effects of employees’ expected
exercise and post-vesting employment termination behavior: Pursuant to Paragraph 718-10-50-2(f)(2)(i) of the FASB Accounting
Standards Codification the expected term of share options and similar instruments represents the period of time the options and similar
instruments are expected to be outstanding taking into consideration of the contractual term of the instruments and holder’s expected
exercise behavior into the fair value (or calculated value) of the instruments. The Company uses historical data to estimate holder’s
expected exercise behavior. If the Company is a newly formed corporation or shares of the Company are thinly traded the contractual
term of the share options and similar instruments is used as the expected term of share options and similar instruments as the Company
does not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term.
The current price of the underlying share.
The expected volatility of the price of the underlying share for the expected term of the option. Pursuant to ASC Paragraph 718-10-55-
25 a newly publicly traded entity might base expectations about future volatility on the average volatilities of similar entities for an
appropriate period following their going public. A nonpublic entity might base its expected volatility on the average volatilities of
otherwise similar public entities. For purposes of identifying otherwise similar entities, an entity would likely consider characteristics
such as industry, stage of life cycle, size, and financial leverage. Because of the effects of diversification that are present in an industry
sector index, the volatility of an index should not be substituted for the average of volatilities of otherwise similar entities in a fair value
measurement. Pursuant to paragraph 718-10-S99-1 if shares of a company are thinly traded the use of weekly or monthly price
observations would generally be more appropriate than the use of daily price observations as the volatility calculation using daily
observations for such shares could be artificially inflated due to a larger spread between the bid and asked quotes and lack of consistent
trading in the market. The Company uses the average historical volatility of the comparable companies over the expected term of the
share options or similar instruments as its expected volatility.
The expected dividends on the underlying share for the expected term of the option. The expected dividend yield is based on the
Company’s current dividend yield as the best estimate of projected dividend yield for periods within the expected term of the share
options and similar instruments.
The risk-free interest rate(s) for the expected term of the option. Pursuant to ASC 718-10-55-28 a U.S. entity issuing an option on its
own shares must use as the risk-free interest rates the implied yields currently available from the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve
over the contractual term of the option if the entity is using a lattice model incorporating the option’s contractual term. If the entity is
using a closed-form model, the risk-free interest rate is the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a
remaining term equal to the expected term used as the assumption in the model.
Pursuant to ASC paragraph 505-50-S99-1, if the Company receives a right to receive future services in exchange for unvested, forfeitable equity
instruments, those equity instruments are treated as unissued for accounting purposes until the future services are received (that is, the
instruments are not considered issued until they vest). Consequently, there would be no recognition at the measurement date and no entry should
be recorded.
43
Deferred Tax Assets and Income Tax Provision
The Company follows paragraph 740-10-30-2 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets
and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this
method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using
enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance
to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. 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 the Statements of Operations in the period that
includes the enactment date.
The Company adopted the provisions of paragraph 740-10-25-13 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Paragraph 740-10-25-13
addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial
statements. Under paragraph 740-10-25-13, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely
than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax
benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty
percent (50%) likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Paragraph 740-10-25-13 also provides guidance on de-recognition,
classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim periods and requires increased disclosures. The Company had no
material adjustments to its liabilities for unrecognized income tax benefits according to the provisions of paragraph 740-10-25-13.
The estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities are reported in the accompanying
consolidated balance sheets, as well as tax credit carry-backs and carry-forwards. The Company periodically reviews the recoverability of
deferred tax assets recorded on its consolidated balance sheets and provides valuation allowances as management deems necessary.
Management makes judgments as to the interpretation of the tax laws that might be challenged upon an audit and cause changes to previous
estimates of tax liability. In addition, the Company operates within multiple taxing jurisdictions and is subject to audit in these jurisdictions. In
management’s opinion, adequate provisions for income taxes have been made for all years. If actual taxable income by tax jurisdiction varies
from estimates, additional allowances or reversals of reserves may be necessary.
Tax years that remain subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions
The Company’s tax years 2011 to 2014 remain subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions pursuant to the ASC Paragraph 740-10-50-15.
Limitation on Utilization of NOLs due to Change in Control
Pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code Section 382 (“Section 382”), certain ownership changes may subject the NOL’s to annual limitations
which could reduce or defer the NOL. Section 382 imposes limitations on a corporation’s ability to utilize NOLs if it experiences an “ownership
change.” In general terms, an ownership change may result from transactions increasing the ownership of certain stockholders in the stock of a
corporation by more than 50 percentage points over a three-year period. In the event of an ownership change, utilization of the NOLs would be
subject to an annual limitation under Section 382 determined by multiplying the value of its stock at the time of the ownership change by the
applicable long-term tax-exempt rate. Any unused annual limitation may be carried over to later years. The imposition of this limitation on its
ability to use the NOLs to offset future taxable income could cause the Company to pay U.S. federal income taxes earlier than if such limitation
were not in effect and could cause such NOLs to expire unused, reducing or eliminating the benefit of such NOLs.
Foreign Currency Translation
The Company follows Section 830-10-45 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Section 830-10-45”) for foreign currency
translation to translate the financial statements of the foreign subsidiary from the functional currency, generally the local currency, into U.S.
Dollars. Section 830-10-45 sets out the guidance relating to how a reporting entity determines the functional currency of a foreign
entity (including of a foreign entity in a highly inflationary economy), re-measures the books of record (if necessary), and characterizes
transaction gains and losses. Pursuant to Section 830-10-45, the assets, liabilities, and operations of a foreign entity shall be measured using the
functional currency of that entity. An entity’s functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity
operates; normally, that is the currency of the environment, or local currency, in which an entity primarily generates and expends cash.
The functional currency of each foreign subsidiary is determined based on management’s judgment and involves consideration of all relevant
economic facts and circumstances affecting the subsidiary. Generally, the currency in which the subsidiary transacts a majority of its
transactions, including billings, financing, payroll and other expenditures, would be considered the functional currency, but any dependency
upon the parent and the nature of the subsidiary’s operations must also be considered. If a subsidiary’s functional currency is deemed to be the
local currency, then any gain or loss associated with the translation of that subsidiary’s financial statements is included in accumulated other
comprehensive income. However, if the functional currency is deemed to be the U.S. Dollar, then any gain or loss associated with the re-
measurement of these financial statements from the local currency to the functional currency would be included in the consolidated statements of
income and comprehensive income (loss). If the Company disposes of foreign subsidiaries, then any cumulative translation gains or losses would
be recorded into the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income (loss). If the Company determines that there has been a
change in the functional currency of a subsidiary to the U.S. Dollar, any translation gains or losses arising after the date of change would be
included within the statement of income and comprehensive income (loss).
44
Based on an assessment of the factors discussed above, the management of the Company determined the relevant subsidiaries’ local currencies to
be their respective functional currencies.
The financial records of the Company's UK operating subsidiary are maintained in their local currency, the British Pound (“GBP”), which is the
functional currency. Assets and liabilities are translated from the local currency into the reporting currency, U.S. dollars, at the exchange rate
prevailing at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at weighted average exchange rates for the period to approximate
translation at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates those elements are recognized in the consolidated financial statements. Foreign currency
translation gain (loss) resulting from the process of translating the local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in
determining accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity.
Unless otherwise noted, the rate presented below per U.S. $1.00 was the midpoint of the interbank rate as quoted by OANDA Corporation
( www.oanda.com ) contained in its consolidated financial statements. Management believes that the difference between GBP vs. U.S. dollar
exchange rate quoted by the Bank of England and GBP vs. U.S. dollar exchange rate reported by OANDA Corporation were
immaterial. Translations do not imply that the GBP amounts actually represent, or have been or could be converted into, equivalent amounts in
U.S. dollars. Translation of amounts from GBP into U.S. dollars has been made at the following exchange rates for the respective periods:

Earnings per Share
Earnings per share ("EPS") is computed pursuant to section 260-10-45 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Basic EPS is computed
by dividing earnings by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed by
dividing earnings by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially outstanding shares of common stock during the
period to reflect the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through contingent shares issuance arrangement, stock
options or warrants.
Pursuant to ASC Paragraphs 260-10-45-22 and 45-23, the dilutive effect of outstanding call options and warrants (and their equivalents) issued
by the reporting entity shall be reflected in diluted EPS by application of the treasury stock method unless the provisions of paragraphs 260-10-
45-35 through 45-36 and 260-10-55-8 through 55-11 require that another method be applied. Equivalents of options and warrants include non-
vested stock granted to employees, stock purchase contracts, and partially paid stock subscriptions (see paragraph 260–10–55–23). Anti-dilutive
contracts, such as purchased put options and purchased call options, shall be excluded from diluted EPS. Under the treasury stock method:
a. Exercise of options and warrants shall be assumed at the beginning of the period (or at time of issuance, if later) and common shares shall be
assumed to be issued. b. The proceeds from exercise shall be assumed to be used to purchase common stock at the average market price during
the period. (See paragraphs 260-10-45-29 and 260-10-55-4 through 55-5.) c. The incremental shares (the difference between the number of
shares assumed issued and the number of shares assumed purchased) shall be included in the denominator of the diluted EPS computation.

Cash Flows Reporting
The Company adopted paragraph 230-10-45-24 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for cash flows reporting, classifies cash receipts
and payments according to whether they stem from operating, investing, or financing activities and provides definitions of each category, and
uses the indirect or reconciliation method (“Indirect method”) as defined by paragraph 230-10-45-25 of the FASB Accounting Standards
Codification to report net cash flow from operating activities by adjusting net income to reconcile it to net cash flow from operating activities by
removing the effects of (a) all deferrals of past operating cash receipts and payments and all accruals of expected future operating cash receipts
and payments and (b) all items that are included in net income that do not affect operating cash receipts and payments. The Company reports the
reporting currency equivalent of foreign currency cash flows, using the current exchange rate at the time of the cash flows and the effect of
exchange rate changes on cash held in foreign currencies is reported as a separate item in the reconciliation of beginning and ending balances of
cash and cash equivalents and separately provides information about investing and financing activities not resulting in cash receipts or payments
in the period pursuant to paragraph 830-230-45-1 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.
Subsequent Events
The Company follows the guidance in Section 855-10-50 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for the disclosure of subsequent
events. The Company will evaluate subsequent events through the date when the financial statements were issued. Pursuant to ASU 2010-09 of
the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, the Company as an SEC filer considers its financial statements issued when they are widely
distributed to users, such as through filing them on EDGAR.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic
606)” (“ASU 2014-09”)
This guidance amends the existing FASB Accounting Standards Codification, creating a new Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with
Customer. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to
customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.
To achieve that core principle, an entity should apply the following steps:
1.
Identify the contract(s) with the customer
2.
Identify the performance obligations in the contract
3. Determine the transaction price
4. Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
5. Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies performance obligations
The ASU also provides guidance on disclosures that should be provided to enable financial statement users to understand the nature, amount,
timing, and uncertainty of revenue recognition and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. Qualitative and quantitative information is
required about the following:
1. Contracts with customers – including revenue and impairments recognized, disaggregation of revenue, and information about contract
balances and performance obligations (including the transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations)
46
2. Significant judgments and changes in judgments – determining the timing of satisfaction of performance obligations (over time or at a
point in time), and determining the transaction price and amounts allocated to performance obligations
3. Assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract.
ASU 2014-09 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period for all
public entities. Early application is not permitted.
In June 2014, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-12 “Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic
718) : Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the
Requisite Service Period” (“ASU 2014-12”).
The amendments clarify the proper method of accounting for share-based payments when the terms of an award provide that a performance
target could be achieved after the requisite service period. The Update requires that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be
achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. The performance target should not be reflected in estimating the
grant-date fair value of the award. Compensation cost should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance
target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the period(s) for which the requisite service has already been
rendered.
The amendments in this Update are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15,
2015. Earlier adoption is permitted.
In August 2014, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15 “Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern
(Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (“ASU 2014-15”).
In connection with preparing financial statements for each annual and interim reporting period, an entity’s management should evaluate whether
there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern
within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or within one year after the date that the financial statements are available
to be issued when applicable). Management’s evaluation should be based on relevant conditions and events that are known and reasonably
knowable at the date that the financial statements are issued (or at the date that the financial statements are available to be issued when
applicable). Substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern exists when relevant conditions and events, considered in
the aggregate, indicate that it is probable that the entity will be unable to meet its obligations as they become due within one year after the date
that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued). The term probable is used consistently with its use in Topic 450,
Contingencies.
When management identifies conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern,
management should consider whether its plans that are intended to mitigate those relevant conditions or events will alleviate the substantial
doubt. The mitigating effect of management’s plans should be considered only to the extent that (1) it is probable that the plans will be
effectively implemented and, if so, (2) it is probable that the plans will mitigate the conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the
entity’s ability to continue as a going concern.
If conditions or events raise substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, but the substantial doubt is alleviated as a
result of consideration of management’s plans, the entity should disclose information that enables users of the financial statements to understand
all of the following (or refer to similar information disclosed elsewhere in the footnotes):
a. Principal conditions or events that raised substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern (before consideration
of management’s plans)
b. Management’s evaluation of the significance of those conditions or events in relation to the entity’s ability to meet its obligations
c. Management’s plans that alleviated substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern.
If conditions or events raise substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, and substantial doubt is not alleviated after
consideration of management’s plans, an entity should include a statement in the footnotes indicating that there is substantial doubt about the
entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued).
Additionally, the entity should disclose information that enables users of the financial statements to understand all of the following:
a. Principal conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern
b. Management’s evaluation of the significance of those conditions or events in relation to the entity’s ability to meet its obligations
c. Management’s plans that are intended to mitigate the conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to
continue as a going concern.
The amendments in this Update are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods
thereafter. Early application is permitted.

In November 2014, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-16 “ Derivatives and Hedging (Topic
815) : Determining Whether the Host Contract in a Hybrid Financial Instrument Issued in the Form of a Share Is More Akin to Debt or to
Equity” (“ASU 2014-16”).
The amendments in ASU No. 2014-16 clarify that an entity must take into account all relevant terms and features when reviewing the nature of
the host contract. Additionally, the amendments state that no one term or feature would define the host contract’s economic characteristics and
risks. Instead, the economic characteristics and risks of the hybrid financial instrument as a whole would determine the nature of the host
contract.
The amendments in this Update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning
after December 15, 2015. Early adoption, including adoption in an interim period, is permitted.
In January 2015, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-01 “ Income Statement—Extraordinary and Unusual Items
(Subtopic 225-20) : Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items” (“ASU 2015-01”).
This Update eliminates from GAAP the concept of extraordinary items and the requirements in Subtopic 225-20 for reporting entities to
separately classify, present, and disclose extraordinary events and transactions.
The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015.
Early adoption is permitted provided that the guidance is applied from the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption.
In February 2015, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-02 “ Consolidation (Topic 810) - Amendments to the
Consolidation Analysis” (“ASU 2015-02”) to improve certain areas of consolidation guidance for reporting organizations (i.e., public, private,
and not-for-profit) that are required to evaluate whether to consolidate certain legal entities such as limited partnerships, limited liability
corporations, and securitization structures (e.g., collateralized debt/loan obligations).
All legal entities are subject to reevaluation under the revised consolidation model. Specifically, the amendments:
• Eliminating the presumption that a general partner should consolidate a limited partnership.
• Eliminating the indefinite deferral of FASB Statement No. 167, thereby reducing the number of Variable Interest Entity (VIE)
consolidation models from four to two (including the limited partnership consolidation model).
• Clarifying when fees paid to a decision maker should be a factor to include in the consolidation of VIEs. Note: a VIE is a legal
entity in which consolidation is not based on a majority of voting rights.
• Amending the guidance for assessing how related party relationships affect VIE consolidation analysis.
• Excluding certain money market funds from the consolidation guidance.
The amendments in this Update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years,
beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period.
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, when adopted, will have a material
effect on the accompanying financial statements.
Note 3 - Going Concern
The Company elected to adopt early application of Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements—Going
Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (“ASU 2014-15”) .
The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that it will continue as a going concern, which contemplates
continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.
As reflected in the consolidated financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit at March 31, 2015, a net loss and net cash used in
operating activities for the reporting period then ended. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going
concern.
Prior to the Merger, the Company was seeking a suitable candidate for a business combination; however, notwithstanding the Company’s cash
position may not be sufficient to support the Company’s daily operations. While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy and in its
ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurance to that effect. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent
on the Company’s ability to execute its strategy and in its ability to raise additional funds.
The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or
the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Notes Payable - Trinad Capital Master Fund
On December 31, 2014, the Company entered into a Senior Convertible Promissory Note (the “Senior Note”) with Trinad Capital Master Fund
(“Trinad Capital”) allowing for advances up to a maximum loan amount of $1,000,000, plus interest at the rate of six percent (6%) per annum on
the unpaid principal amount of outstanding advances.
Prior to December 31, 2014, Trinad Capital advanced $700,000 to the Company in various term loans during the period between April 2, 2012
and November 30, 2014. The aggregate principal and accrued interest payable to Trinad Capital through December 31, 2014 under the prior
loans was $770,151 and this amount constitutes a portion of the outstanding loan balance under the Senior Note. Upon entry into the Senior
Note, each of the prior loans was cancelled. Pursuant to the terms of the Senior Note, all outstanding unpaid principal and accrued interest is due
and payable on June 30, 2016 or such later date as Trinad Capital may agree to in writing unless, prior to such date, the Senior Note has been
repaid in full or Trinad Capital elects to convert all or any portion of the then-outstanding loan balance into common stock of the Company in
connection with the Company consummating an equity financing in excess of $5,000,000 or greater as set forth in the terms of the Senior Note .
On January 27, 2015, the Company and Trinad Capital entered into an amendment to the Senior Note, effective as of December 31, 2014,
pursuant to which: (1) the term of the Senior Note was extended to June 30, 2016 and (2) the conversion price for conversion of the unpaid
balance and interest outstanding in connection with an equity financing was amended to be the price per share equal to the average price per
share paid by investors in the equity financing.
On February 5, 2015, the Company and Trinad Capital entered into an amendment and restatement of the Senior Note, effective as of December
31, 2014, pursuant to which the convertibility feature of the note was eliminated in its entirety.
As of March 31, 2015, $825,000 principal and $81,102 accrued interest payable was outstanding under the Senior Note.
Note Payable – JJAT
OCHL entered into a Senior Promissory Note (the “OCHL Senior Promissory Note”), dated April 28, 2014 to repay $1,376,124 of transaction
expenses of the Merger to JJAT, due October 28, 2015 that accrues interest at 8% per annum, or $85,618, as of March 31, 2015. Outstanding
interest payable under the OCHL Senior Promissory Note is due on the first anniversary of the note with the balance payable upon maturity of
the note. On November 3, 2014, $500,000 of principal under the OCHL Senior Promissory Note was repaid pursuant to the Forbearance
Agreement described below.
On October 30, 2014, the Company entered into a Forbearance Agreement (the “Forbearance Agreement”) with Mr. Bengough, Mr. Ellin, and
JJAT whereby the parties agreed to forbear, pursuant to any claims relating to the Share Exchange, the Variation Agreement, the related
Shareholders Agreement amongst the parties dated February 12, 2014 (the “Shareholders Agreement”), and the promissory notes (the “Notes”)
and other documents entered into pursuant to the Shareholder’s Agreement during the term of the Forbearance Agreement, which is terminable
by any party upon fifteen days prior written notice following a 90-day period from October 30, 2014.
Pursuant to the terms of the Forbearance Agreement, OCL made a payment to JJAT in the amount of $500,000 to be applied to the principal
under the OCHL Senior Promissory Note. Following entry into the Forbearance Agreement, a total of $876,124 of principal remained
outstanding under the OCHL Senior Promissory Note. Interest continues to accrue under the OCHL Senior Promissory Note.
Management Services from Trinad Management LLC
Upon consummation of the reverse merger on April 28, 2014, the Company assumed the September 23, 2011 Management Agreement
(“Management Agreement”) with Trinad Management, LLC (“Trinad LLC”). Pursuant to the Management Agreement, Trinad LLC had agreed
to provide certain management services to the Company through September 22, 2014, including, without limitation, the sourcing, structuring and
negotiation of potential business acquisitions and customer contracts for the Company. Under the Management Agreement, the Company
compensated Trinad LLC for its services with (i) a fee equal to $2,080,000, with $90,000 payable in advance of each consecutive three-month
calendar period during the term of the Agreement and with $1,000,000 due at the end of the three (3) year term, and (ii) issuance of a Warrant to
purchase 1,125,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.15 per share (“Warrant”). The Warrant may be exercised
in whole or in part by Trinad LLC at any time for a period of ten (10) years.
The payment of the $1,000,000 fee accrued on the books at the end of the term has been deferred. Trinad LLC continues to provide service at
$30,000 per month on a month to month basis.

Note 8 – Commitments and Contingencies
Operating Lease - Obar Camden Limited
On February 19, 2004 OCL entered into a non-cancellable lease for premises for a period of 25 years expiring November 27, 2028. On October
22, 2004, OCL entered into a deed of variation to the original non-cancellable lease for the premises with an annual rent of £473,000 per year
plus valued added taxes for the first five (5) years and with an annual rent of £548,337 per year plus valued added taxes for the remainder of the
lease, with free rent for the first fifteen (15) months of the occupancy. The lease provides for a rent review every fifth anniversary of the
effective date whereby the principal rent may be increased at each such review date to the open market rent (as defined) if that is greater than the
amount of the principal rent under the lease immediately before the review date. In conjunction with the signing of the deed of variation the
landlord (i) provided consideration of £175,000, and (ii) contributed an additional £175,000 towards improvements upon execution of the deed
of variation.
Future minimum lease payments under the non-cancelable operating lease are as follows:

Deferred Rent
To induce OCL to enter into the operating lease and the deed of variation for a period of 25 years, the landlord granted free rent for the first
fifteen (15) months of the occupancy and consideration/contribution of £350,000 in aggregate, which will be recognized on a straight-line basis
over the duration of the initial lease term of 25 years.
Legal Proceedings
The judicial review is being brought by Obar Camden Limited. The current judicial review claim (case number CO/738/2015) was filed in the
High Court by Obar Camden Limited on February 16, 2015. (Judicial review is the process by which the Courts review the exercise of statutory
functions by public bodies in England and Wales). The claim is a legal challenge to the decision by the London Borough of Camden Council to
grant planning permission reference 2014/2621 on January 6, 2015 for the redevelopment of the former Hope & Anchor public house as 8
residential units. This is the neighboring property to the Koko Club and the grounds of challenge relate to legal flaws in the way that the Council
assessed noise and heritage impacts of the proposed development as part of its decision. The relief sought is a Court Order to quash the planning
permission that has been granted. Whilst the Council is defending the claim, the applicant is playing no active role in the proceedings.
Judicial review is a two stage process, where the case is first considered by a judge on the papers to decide whether it should get permission to
proceed to a substantive hearing. The Court granted permission for the claim to proceed on March 27, 2015 and a one-day hearing has been
listed in the High Court on August 5, 2015.
The case has been brought because the Council has granted a planning permission for a multiple occupancy residential development adjacent to
KOKO. Obar Camden believes that the Council did not properly seek to understand and consider the potential for conflict between the venue
and new residents being in such close proximity to each other and without requiring adequate sound insulation measures to be in place to ensure
that the parties can co-exist peacefully. The grant of the permission in its current form leaves the venue potentially vulnerable to complaints,
which in turn could have adverse consequences for KOKO’s premises licence. If successful, the planning permission will be quashed.

675,000 shares with an exercise price of $0.01 per share expiring four years from the date of issuance as part of the sale of equity units.
53
The Company estimated the fair value of the warrants on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following
weighted-average assumptions:
Expected life (year)
Expected volatility (*)
Expected annual rate of quarterly dividends
Risk-free rate(s)
4
37.67% - 38.20 %
0.00 %
1.21% - 1.40 %
* As a thinly traded public entity it is not practicable for the Company to estimate the expected volatility of its share price. The Company
selected three (3) comparable public companies listed on NYSE MKT and NASDAQ Capital Market within live entertainment industry
which the Company engages in to calculate the expected volatility. The Company calculated those three (3) comparable companies’
historical volatility over the expected life of the options or warrants and averaged them as its expected volatility .
The estimated relative fair value of the warrants was $0.50 per warrant share or $336,150, at the date of issuance using the Black-Scholes Option
Pricing Model.
On December 1, 2014, the Company issued warrants to purchase 2,625,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.01
per share to eight investors who had previously purchased shares of the Company’s common stock for $1.00 per share. The warrants expire four
(4) years from the date of issuance. As the consideration for these warrants, the investors (each, a “Holder”) agreed to release the Company and
its principals from any and all claims relating to the Holder’s present or prior investments in the Company and from any other claim, existing on
or prior to the warrant’s date of original issuance.
The Company estimated the fair value of the warrants on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following
weighted-average assumptions:

Note 10 - Concentration of Credit Risk
Credit Risk Arising from Financial Instruments
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash
equivalents.
As of March 31, 2015, substantially all (96%) of the Company’s cash was held by major financial institutions in the United Kingdom and the
balance at certain accounts may exceed the maximum amount insured by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) (£85,000 per
account, per authorized institution as of December 31, 2010). However, the Company has not experienced losses on these accounts and
management believes that the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.
Note 11 - Foreign Operations
Foreign Operations
The Company’s operations are primarily carried out in the United Kingdom (“UK”). Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition
and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environments in the UK. The Company’s business may be
influenced by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency fluctuation and
remittances and methods of taxation, among other things.
Note 12 - Income Tax Provision
United States Income Tax
The Company is incorporated in the State of Nevada and is subject to the United States of America tax law.
Deferred Tax Assets
At March 31, 2015, the Company had net operating loss (“NOL”) carry-forwards for Federal income tax purposes of $1,942,041 that may be
offset against future taxable income through 2035. No tax benefit has been reported with respect to these net operating loss carry-forwards in the
accompanying financial statements because the Company believes that the realization of the Company’s net deferred tax assets of approximately
$1,026,928, was not considered more likely than not and accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the net loss carry-forwards are fully offset by a
full valuation allowance.
Deferred tax assets consist primarily of the tax effect of NOL carry-forwards. The Company has provided a full valuation allowance on the
deferred tax assets because of the uncertainty regarding its realizability. The valuation allowance decreased approximately $848,423 for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2015 and increased approximately $1,230,644 for the reporting period ended April 27, 2014.

Corporation Income Tax Returns Remaining subject to Audit of UK Government
Generally speaking, HM Revenue & Customs (“ HMRC”) must normally send the Corporation a notice of enquiry within 12 months of receiving
the said corporation tax return. Different deadlines may apply when:
• The Corporation files its corporation tax return late,
• The Corporation amends its return,
• The Corporation makes a claim separately from its return,
•
Information the Corporation gave HMRC about its corporation tax return was deliberately misleading.
HMRC can make a discovery assessment to correct a careless error up to six (6) years after the end of the Corporation Tax accounting period; 20
years after the accounting period if the mistake was a deliberate error; or no time limit if a fraudulent error was found.
Obar Camden corporation income tax return for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013 was filed with HMRC on December 31, 2013, which
remains subject to audit under the statute of limitations by HMRC for a period of 12 months from the date of filing.
Obar Camden corporation income tax return for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 was filed with HMRC on December 31, 2014, which
remains subject to audit under the statute of limitations by HMRC for a period of 12 months from the date of filing.
OCHL and Obar Camden corporation income tax returns for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015 due December 31, 2015 have not yet been
filed with HMRC, which remain subject to audit under the statute of limitations by HMRC for a period of 12 months from the date when it is
filed.
Note 13 – Subsequent Events
The Company has evaluated all events that occurred after the balance sheet date through the date when the financial statements were issued to
determine if they must be reported. The management of the Company determined that there were certain reportable subsequent event(s) to be
disclosed as follows.
On April 8, 2015, the Company entered into a senior promissory note with Trinad Capital in the amount of $195,500. The note bears interest at
the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum and all outstanding unpaid principal and accrued interest is due and payable on June 30, 2016 or such
later date as Trinad Capital may agree to in writing, unless prior to such date this note has been prepaid in full. Trinad Capital made additional
advances to the Company in April, May and June 2015 totaling $450,000. On July 10, 2015, the Company and Trinad Capital amended and
restated the above senior promissory note from $195,500 to $645,500 to include these additional advances.
On April 28, 2015, OCL made a payment to JJAT in the amount of $90,995 to be applied to the interest under the OCHL Senior Promissory
Note. On July 14, 2015, OCL made a payment to JJAT in the amount of $125,550 to be applied to the principal under the OCHL Senior
Promissory Note.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
None.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, under the supervision of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer performed an evaluation of the
effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period
covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed
to provide a reasonable level of assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange
Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and
forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons
performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, our principal
executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2015, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective for
the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015, subject to the two material weaknesses described below.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, there can be no assurance that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures will detect or uncover all
failures of persons within the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries to disclose material information otherwise required to be set forth in the
Company’s periodic reports. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including
the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure
controls and procedures can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving their control objectives.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting for the Company. Internal
control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or
under the supervision of, the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the Company’s Board of Directors,
management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial
statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:
•
•
•
Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of
the assets of the company;
Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made
only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and
Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the
company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. 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.
Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its
inherent limitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses
in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failure. Internal control over financial reporting can also be circumvented by collusion or
improper management override. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a
timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting
process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.
We assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2015. In making this
assessment, the Company’s management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (“COSO”) of the Treadway
Commission’s Internal Control-Integrated Framework.
As a result of this assessment, we have determined that our internal control over financial reporting was ineffective as of March 31, 2015.
We had neither the resources, nor the personnel, to provide an adequate control environment. The following two material weaknesses in our
internal control over financial reporting existed at March 31, 2015:
58
(i) We do not have written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. Written documentation of key internal
controls over financial reporting is a requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act which is applicable to us for the fiscal year ended
March 31, 2015. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have written documentation of our internal controls and procedures on our
assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.
(ii) We do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. Due to our size and
nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. However, to the extent possible,
the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals. Management
evaluated the impact of our failure to have segregation of duties on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures, and concluded that
the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.
It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable and not absolute
assurance that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about
the likelihood of certain events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance that any design will
succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.
Attestation Report of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
This annual report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control

Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert
We do not currently have an audit committee financial expert, nor do we have an audit committee. Our entire Board of Directors handles
the functions that would otherwise be handled by an audit committee. We do not currently have the capital resources to pay director fees to a
qualified independent expert who would be willing to serve on our Board of Directors and who would be willing to act as an audit committee
financial expert.
Nominating Committee
The Board of Directors has not established a nominating committee due to our early stage of development. Our entire Board of Directors
currently operates as our nominating committee. We have not adopted any procedures by which security holders may recommend nominees to
our Board of Directors.
Code of Ethics
We have not adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer,
principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions because of the small number of persons involved in the
management of the Company.
Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight
Due to the small size and early stage of the Company, we have not adopted a formal policy on whether the Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer positions should be separate or combined. Presently, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company is not the Chairman of the Board of the
Company.
Our Board of Directors is primarily responsible for overseeing our risk management processes.
Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
The Company has no compensation committee, and during the period ended March 31, 2015, its directors and officers participated in
deliberations of our Board of Directors regarding officer compensation. During the period ended March 31, 2015, no executive officer of our
Company (i) served as a member of the compensation committee (or other committee performing equivalent functions or, in the absence of any
such committee, the entire board of directors) of another entity, one of whose executive officers served on our Company’s Board of Directors,
(ii) served as a director of another entity, one of whose executive officers served on our Company’s Board of Directors, or (iii) served as a
member of the compensation committee (or other committee performing equivalent functions or, in the absence of any such committee, the
entire board of directors) of another entity, one of whose executive officers served as a director of our Company.
Item 11. Executive Compensation
Other than as set forth on the table below, no officer of the Company receives any compensation for the services they render to the
Company, has received compensation in the past, and is accruing any compensation pursuant to any agreement with the Company. We currently
have no formal written salary arrangement with any of our officers. We did, however, enter into an offer letter with Mr. Bengough, pursuant to
which he accrued $1,333 per month as of May 1, 2014 until his termination as Chief Executive Officer on September 23, 2014. Our executive
officers may receive a salary or other compensation for services that they provide to the Company in the future, but there are not any current
understandings or agreements regarding compensation our management will receive after a business combination. No retirement, pension, profit
sharing, stock option or insurance programs or other similar programs have been adopted by the Company for the benefit of the Company’s
employees.

AMENDED AND RESTATED SENIOR PROMISSORY NOTE
Exhibit 10.44
Up to $1,000,000
Original Issue Date: April 8, 2015
Amended and Restated: July 10, 2015
Los Angeles, CA
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Loton, Corp, a Nevada corporation (“ Borrower ”), promises to pay to the order of Trinad Capital Master
Fund, Ltd., a Cayman Island exempted company (“ Lender ”), the lesser of (i) the principal sum of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) (the "
Maximum Advance Amount "), or (ii) the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Advances (as defined below) made by Lender to Borrower
from time to time pursuant to the terms of this Amended and Restated Senior Promissory Note (this “ Note ”), plus interest at the applicable Note
Rate (as defined in paragraph 2) on the unpaid principal amount hereof from the date of disbursement until the date such amounts are repaid by
Borrower in full.
This Note amends and restates in its entirety that certain Senior Promissory Note dated April 8, 2015 (the " Original Note ") made
payable to Lender in the original principal amount of $195,500 and evidences loans or Advances made by Lender to Borrower from time to time
under the Original Note, as amended and restated by this Note. This Note does not constitute a satisfaction, release, termination, novation or
discharge of the Original Note but is a modification (and, as modified, a continuation) of the Original Note.
1. Maturity . All outstanding unpaid principal and accrued but unpaid interest (the “ Advance Balance ”) shall be due and payable on June
30, 2016 or such later date as Lender may agree to in writing (the “ Maturity Date ”) unless, prior to such date, this Note shall have been prepaid
in full pursuant to paragraph 4.
2. Interest .
(a) The principal sum outstanding at any time during the period from the Original Issue Date of this Note until the Maturity
Date (the “ Term ”) shall bear interest at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum (the “ Note Rate ”), but in no event more than the maximum
interest rate permitted by applicable law. Interest shall be calculated daily on the basis of a 365-day year at the rate equal to the Note Rate,
and shall be payable on the last business day of each calendar quarter commencing on June 30, 2015 (each, an “ Interest Payment Date ”).
(b) Prior to the Maturity Date, Borrower may from time to time in lieu of making a payment to Lender pursuant to paragraph 3
of the interest due and payable under this Note on any applicable Interest Payment Date, elect that the amount of such interest be added to the
principal sum outstanding under this Note (such election, the “ PIK Election ”). Borrower shall provide written notice of the PIK Election to
Lender at least five (5) days before such applicable Interest Payment Date, which notice shall state (i) the amount of interest due and payable
under this Note to be added to the principal sum outstanding ("PIK Interest") and (ii) the Interest Payment Date on which the PIK Interest
would otherwise be due and payable to Lender. For the avoidance of doubt, immediately after each PIK Election, the principal sum
outstanding under this Note shall equal the sum of (x) the outstanding unpaid principal immediately before the PIK Election, and (y) the
amount of PIK Interest subject to such PIK Election. The Lender may make a notation hereon of all PIK Interest paid pursuant to a PIK
Election.
3. Manner of Payment . All payments under this Note shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account
designated by Lender in writing. Any payment shall be applied when received, first, to the payment of any accrued but unpaid interest and,
thereafter, to reduce the principal balance of this Note. If any payment of principal or interest on this Note is due on a day which is not a
Business Day, such payment shall be due on the next succeeding Business Day. As used herein, “ Business Day ” means a day other than
Saturday on which banks are generally open for business in New York City.
4. Prepayment . Borrower may, without premium or penalty, at any time and from time to time, upon fifteen (15) days’ prior written
notice to Lender, prepay all or a part of the outstanding unpaid principal, together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon computed to the date
of prepayment.
5. Intentionally Omitted.
6. Advances .

shall request each Advance (each, an " Advance Request ") by written notice to Lender (each a " Notice of Advance '') stating the amount of
the Advance Request and the proposed date of funding. For the avoidance of doubt, Lender shall not be obligated to make Advances under
this Note during the Term unless it consents to do so. The Lender may make a notation hereon of each Advance made by it hereunder.
(b) Borrower shall not be entitled to make any further Advance Requests (i) on or after the Maturity Date, (ii) in the event that
the aggregate principal sum outstanding, including the proposed Advance Request, equals or exceeds Maximum Advance Amount, or (iii) in
the event that any representation or warranty by Borrower contained herein is untrue or incorrect as of the date of funding of any such
Advance Request.
7. Representations and Warranties . Borrower makes the following representations, warranties and agreements in favor of Lender,
which representations and warranties shall survive the execution of this Note and shall remain true, accurate and in full force and effect until all

of any loan agreement, promissory note or other contract to which Borrower is a party; and/or

that would result in the application of any law other than the laws of the State of California.

hereunder. Lender shall be entitled to delegate its obligations hereunder and to assign this Note in whole or in part to any person or entity
without the consent of Borrower.

constitute a waiver of any of Lender’s rights or of any breach, default, or failure of condition under this Note. No waiver by Lender of any of its
rights or of any breach, default or failure of a condition under this Note shall be effective unless it is stated in writing signed by Lender. All of

remedies will not constitute an election of remedies. Time is expressly made of the essence with respect to every provision hereof.
