NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 31, 2011 (UNAUDITED) and DECEMBER 31, 2010

1. Business

On March 14, 2008, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as August 20, 2007 between Feris International, Inc. (“Feris”) and Pro Sports & Entertainment, Inc. (“PSEI”), Feris issued 49,500,000 shares of its common stock for all of the issued and outstanding shares of PSEI, resulting in PSEI becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Feris and the surviving entity for accounting purposes (“Reverse Merger”). In July 2008, Feris’ corporate name was changed to Stratus Media Group, Inc. (“Company”).

PSEI, a California corporation, was organized on November 23, 1998 and specializes in sports and entertainment events that it owns, operates, manages, markets and sells in national markets. PSEI acquired the business of Stratus Rewards, LLC (“Stratus Rewards”) in August 2005 and Stratus Rewards is a wholly-owned subsidiary of PSEI. Stratus Rewards is a credit card rewards program using the Visa card platform that offers a luxury rewards redemption program, including private jet travel, premium travel opportunities, exclusive events and luxury merchandise. In May 2010, the Company entered into an agreement with a private bank in Switzerland for it to be the processing bank for Stratus Rewards in Europe.

2. Going Concern

The Company has suffered losses from operations and, without additional capital, currently lacks liquidity to meet its current obligations. The Company has a net loss for 2010 of $8,409,605 and a net loss of $1,714,378 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. As of March 31, 2011, the Company had negative working capital of $5,006,409 and cumulative losses of $28,174,646. Unless additional financing is obtained, the Company may not be able to continue as a going concern. During 2010, the Company raised $2,935,720 in capital through the issuance of $2,310,000 of common stock and $625,720 of preferred stock. The Company raised $270,000 in capital through issuance of preferred stock and $200,000 from the receipt of a stock subscription receivable during the three months ended March 31, 2011. The Company is actively seeking additional capital to establish operations, restart the credit card and event businesses and complete and integrate targeted acquisitions. During the period April 1, 2011 through May 14, 2011, the Company raised additional funds of $1,045,000 through the issuance of 2,612,500 shares of common stock. The Company believes this financing coupled with future positive cash flow from operations should result in the future removal of the going concern qualification of the audit opinion similar to the one rendered by our independent auditors for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.

The financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result if the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

3. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

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

Use of Estimates

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Although these estimates are based on our knowledge of current events and actions we may undertake in the future, actual results may differ from such estimates and assumptions.

Event Revenues

Event revenue consists of ticket sales, participant entry fees, corporate sponsorships, advertising, television broadcast fees, athlete management, concession and merchandise sales, charity receipts, commissions and hospitality functions. The Company recognizes admissions and other event-related revenues when the events are held in accordance with SEC Statement Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 104. Revenues received in advance and related direct expenses pertaining to specific events are deferred until the events are actually held.

Stratus Rewards White Visa Card

Stratus Rewards, the Company’s affiliate redemption credit card rewards program intends to generate revenues from transaction fees generated by member purchases using the card, and membership fees. Revenue will be recognized when transaction fees are received and membership fees are amortized and recognized ratably over the twelve-month membership period from the time of receipt.

Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly liquid investments purchased with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Our financial instruments include cash and equivalents, accounts payable, a line-of-credit and accrued liabilities. The carrying amounts of financial instruments approximate fair value due to their short maturities.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. We record depreciation using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:


Equipment		3 – 5 years
Furniture and fixtures		5 years
Software		3 years
Leasehold improvements		Lesser of lease term or life of improvements

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist of goodwill related to certain events and the Stratus Rewards Visa White Card that we acquired. Goodwill is the excess of the cost of an acquired entity over the net amounts assigned to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. We apply the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, codified in FASB ASC Topic 350, which requires allocating goodwill to each reporting unit and testing for impairment using a two-step approach.

The Company purchased several events that are recorded on the Company’s balance sheet as intangible assets with a value at the consideration paid for such assets, which generally include licensing rights, naming rights, merchandising rights and the right to hold such event in particular geographic locations. There was no goodwill assigned to any of these events and the value of the consideration paid for each event is considered to be the value for each related intangible asset. Each event has separate accounts for tracking revenues and expenses per event and a separate account to track the asset valuation.

A portion of the consideration used to purchase the Stratus Rewards Visa card program was allocated to specific assets, as disclosed in the footnotes to the financial statements, with the difference between the specific assets and the total consideration paid for the program being allocated to goodwill.

The Company reviews the value of intangible assets and related goodwill as part of its annual reporting process, which generally occurs in February or March of each calendar year. In between valuations, the Company conducts additional tests if circumstances warrant such testing. For example, if the Company was unable to secure the services of any sponsoring banks, the Company would then undergo a thorough valuation of the intangible assets related to its Stratus Rewards program.

To review the value of intangible assets and related goodwill, the Company compares discounted cash flow forecasts with the amounts of the assets on the balance sheet.

The events are forecasted based on historical results for those events, adjusted over time for the assumed synergies expected from discounts from purchases of goods and services from a number of events rather than from each event on its own, and for synergies resulting from the expected ability to provide sponsors with benefits from sponsoring multiple events with a single point of contact.

If the Company determines the discount factor for cash flows should be substantially increased, or the event will not be able to being operations when planned, it is possible that the amounts for the intangible assets currently on the balance sheet could be reduced or eliminated, which could result in a maximum charge to operations equal to the current carrying value of the intangible assets of $3,317,680.

The Company believes that Core Tour and Maui Music Festival are most at risk for additional impairment charges in the future because the fair value for each event is less than 200% of the book value for such events.

Research and Development

Research and development costs not related to contract performance are expensed as incurred. We did not incur any research and development expenses for 2010 or the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Capitalized Software Costs

We did not capitalize any software development costs during 2010 or the three months ended March 31, 2011. Costs related to the development of new software products and significant enhancements to existing software products are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has been established and are amortized over three years.

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets

We account for long-lived assets in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, codified in FASB ASC Topic 360, which requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets is measured by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds their fair value. Assets to be disposed of by sale are reflected at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.

Net Loss Per Share

We compute net loss per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share, codified in FASB ASC Topics 260. Basic per share data is computed by dividing loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted per share data is computed by dividing loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period increased to include, if dilutive, the number of additional common share equivalents that would have been outstanding if potential common shares had been issued using the treasury stock method. Diluted per share data would also include the potential common share equivalents relating to convertible securities by application of the if-converted method.

The effect of common stock equivalents (which include outstanding warrants and stock options) are not included for the three months ended March 31, 2011 or 2010, as they are antidilutive to loss per share.

Stock-Based Compensation

We adopted SFAS No. 123R, Share Based Payment (SFAS No. 123R), codified in FASB ASC Topic 718, using the modified prospective transition method. New awards and awards modified, repurchased or cancelled after January 1, 2006 trigger compensation expense based on the fair value of the stock option as determined by the Black-Scholes option pricing model. We amortize stock-based compensation for such awards on a straight-line method over the related service period of the awards taking into account the effects of the employees’ expected exercise and post-vesting employment termination behavior.

We account for equity instruments issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123R and EITF Issue No. 96-18.

The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury interest rates, the terms of which are consistent with the expected life of the stock options. Future option grants will be calculated using expected volatility based upon the average volatility of our common stock.

Advertising

We expense the cost of advertising as incurred. Such amounts have not historically been significant to our operations.

Income Taxes

The Company utilizes SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which is codified in FASB ASC Topics 740-10 and 740-30, which requires the 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 income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The provision for income taxes represents the tax payable for the period and the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. This update provides amendments to ASC Topic 820 that will provide more robust disclosures about (1) the different classes of assets and liabilities measured at fair value, (2) the valuation techniques and inputs used, (3) the activity in Level 3 fair value measurements and (4) the transfers between Levels 1, 2, and 3. This standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

On March 5, 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-11, Derivatives and Hedging Topic 815: Scope Exception Related to Embedded Credit Derivatives. This ASU clarifies the guidance within the derivative literature that exempts certain credit related features from analysis as potential embedded derivatives requiring separate accounting. The ASU specifies that an embedded credit derivative feature related to the transfer of credit risk that is only in the form of subordination of one financial instrument to another is not subject to bifurcation from a host contract under ASC 815-15-25, Derivatives and Hedging – Embedded Derivatives – Recognition. All other embedded credit derivative features should be analyzed to determine whether their economic characteristics and risks are “clearly and closely related” to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract and whether bifurcation is required. The ASU was effective for the Company on July 1, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In April 2010, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2010-13, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades. This update provides amendments to Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 718 to clarify that an employee share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which a substantial portion of the entity’s equity securities trades should not be considered to contain a condition that is not a market, performance or service condition. Therefore, an entity would not classify such an award as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The amendments in this update should be applied by recording a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The cumulative-effect adjustment should be calculated for all awards outstanding as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the amendments are initially applied, as if the amendments had been applied consistently since the inception of the award. The cumulative-effect adjustment should be presented separately. Earlier application is permitted. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In December 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-28, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts. The amendments in this update affect all entities that have recognized goodwill and have one or more reporting units whose carrying amount for purposes of performing Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test is zero or negative. The amendments in this update modify Step 1 so that for those reporting units, an entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. In determining whether it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists, an entity should consider whether there are any adverse qualitative factors indicating that an impairment may exist. The qualitative factors are consistent with existing guidance, which requires that goodwill of a reporting unit be tested for impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2010. Early adoption is not permitted. Upon adoption of the amendments, any resulting goodwill impairment should be recorded as a cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings in the period of an adoption. Any goodwill impairments occurring after the initial adoption of the amendments should be included in earnings. The Company adopted this ASU on January 1, 2011. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In December 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-29, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations. The amendments in this update specify that if a public entity presents comparative financial statements, the entity should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination(s) that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. The amendments also expand the supplemental pro forma disclosures to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. The amendments in this update are effective prospectively for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The Company adopted this ASU on January 1, 2011. As of March 31, 2011, the Company has not entered into any business combination transactions.

4. Litigation

In connection with a settlement agreement in May 2005, a judgment was entered in the Superior Court of the County of Los Angeles (“LASC”) against PSEI for the previous owners of the “Core Tour” event of $483,718 plus interest. The dispute arose out of the PSEI’s purchase of the “Core Tour” event from the plaintiffs. As of December 31, 2008, the Company recorded the $483,718 judgment. On July 31, 2008, PSEI, the Company and Core Tour agreed to a revised settlement whereby Stratus will retain all rights of the Core Tour events for $483,718 in cash by December 31, 2008 and 74,000 shares of Common Stock as payment of interest. If PSEI is not able to agree on a timetable for payment of the $483,718 and/or is not able to pay the Core Tour parties, the Core Tour parties have the right to enforce their judgment against PSEI in that amount. On December 31, 2008, the Company issued 102,840 shares of our common stock to the owners of the Core Tour as payment for accrued interest on the judgment as of that date. These shares were valued at the $163,516 based on the closing stock price of our common stock, and accrued interest on the books of $172,993 was reversed, with the difference going to other income. On November 2, 2010, the Core Tour parties obtained a levy for the judgment of $483,718 against PSEI.

In February 2006, a former employee filed an action against PSEI and Mr. Feller in LASC, alleging breach of employment contract. In October 2006, the court entered a default judgment against the defendants for $363,519 and PSEI recorded a charge and set up a reserve of this amount for the year ended December 31, 2006. In September 2007, PSEI and Mr. Feller filed a motion to set aside the default judgment, which was granted in March 2008. PSEI reversed the reserve of $363,519 during 2008. In May 2008, the plaintiff filed an appeal of the order setting aside the default judgment. In September 2009, the court of appeals affirmed the order setting aside the default judgment, and trial in this matter was set for July 2010. Additionally, in September 2009, the plaintiff amended the complaint to add the Company as a defendant. The jury trial concluded on July 28, 2010 with the jury finding in favor of the Company, PSEI, and Mr. Feller on all counts, except two counts as against PSEI only, requiring payment by PSEI to plaintiff of $20,510. The Company, PSEI, and Mr. Feller will be seeking reimbursement of attorneys’ fees incurred from defending the action from plaintiffs.

In connection with a consulting contract related to the acquisition of an event, the consultant obtained an arbitration award, by default, against PSEI in August 2005 for $65,316 in LASC. In September 2005, the plaintiff filed a petition against the Company to confirm the Award against PSEI. In January 2006, the court entered a judgment on the Award and in October 2007, PSEI filed a motion to set aside the Judgment on the basis of lack of service. In November 2007, the court denied the motion to set aside the Judgment. PSEI recorded an expense of $65,316 in 2007 and fully reserved this amount.

A former attorney for the Company filed an action against PSEI in LASC seeking to collect allegedly unpaid legal fees in September 2005. Plaintiff purported to effect service on PSEI by service on the California Secretary of State, and on its President by publication. Plaintiff obtained a default judgment in July 2006 for $30,416. In February 2008, PSEI filed a motion to set aside the default judgment, and for leave to defend the action. The motion was denied. This amount is fully reserved on the PSEI’s financial statements, and included in the Company’s financial statements through consolidation, and pursuant to a settlement agreement, a payment of $5,000 was made in 2010.

On July 20, 2010, the Company was served with a summons by a shareholder in the Superior Court of California, Santa Barbara County, alleging breach of fiduciary duty, breach of covenant of good faith and fair dealing and conversion. The summons is seeking a jury trial for declaratory relief of not less than $600,000 and injunctive relief. The Company believes these claims are without merit and has filed a counterclaim against this shareholder.

In July 2010, Mark Hill, a shareholder of the Company served a demand for arbitration alleging the Company refused to remove transfer restrictions on shares of Company stock owned by him. The Demand alleges that such refusal constituted breach of contract, implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing and conversion and seeks unspecified compensatory damages, injunctive relief and attorney fees and costs. The Company is defending the claims.

In March 2011, four shareholders of the Company filed an action in Superior Court of California, Santa Barbara County, against the Company, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and its outside directors. The complaint alleges violations of the California Corporations Code and federal securities laws relating to the issuance of securities to the plaintiffs and breach of fiduciary duty, contract and covenant of good faith and fair dealing and conversion relating to the alleged refusal to allow the plaintiffs to sell their shares. The complaint seeks unspecified compensatory and punitive damages, recovery of attorney fees and costs and certain equitable relief. The Company believes the claims are without merit and intends to defend the action.

5. Acquisition of Stratus Rewards

In accordance with the Asset Purchase Agreement dated August 15, 2005, by and between the Company and Stratus Rewards LLC (“Stratus Purchase Agreement”), Stratus acquired the business of Stratus, a credit card rewards program.

The total consideration for this acquisition was $3,000,000, with Stratus issuing a note of $1,000,000 and issuing 666,667 common shares valued at $2,000,000. The note is payable in eight quarterly equal payments over a 24 month period, with the first payment due upon completion of the first post-public merger funding of a minimum amount of $3,000,000.

The Stratus Purchase Agreement which specifically included the transfer to the Company of tangible personal property such as computers and all intellectual property, goodwill associated therewith, licenses and sublicenses. Stratus Rewards had at least $1.4 million of computer hardware and at least $0.2 million of computer software, all of which should have been transferred to the Company pursuant to the Stratus Purchase Agreement. These computer and software assets were not included in the accounting for the acquisition of Stratus Rewards by Pro Sports and the value of the computer hardware and software that was not received was allocated to goodwill. The owner of Stratus Rewards received notice on May 15, 2006 that if he did not deliver this hardware and software within 30 days, that the amount of consideration he was entitled to would be reduced by at least the $1,000,000 amount of the note, if not an additional $1,000,000 value in the common stock issued as consideration. The owner responded on June 2, 2006 that his former law firm owned the computer hardware and software and he did not have the authority to release these items to the Company.

As a result, the Company intends to vigorously dispute the validity of the $1,000,000 note to the former owner and seek to have it canceled.

The results of operations of the business acquired have been included in the Company’s Statements of Operations from the date of acquisition. Depreciation and amortization related to the acquisition were calculated based on the estimated fair market values and estimated useful lives for property and equipment and an independent valuation for certain identifiable intangible assets acquired.

Effective May 14, 2010, Stratus Media Group, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Co-branded Card Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Cornèr Banca SA (the “Bank”), located in Lugano, Switzerland. Under the Agreement, the parties agreed to jointly launch a co-branded consumer card payment solution targeted at high net worth individuals and a co-branded commercial payment solution targeted at small and mid-sized businesses. The cards, to be issued by the Bank, will include a loyalty rewards program. The cards are targeted to residents of Europe. The initial term of the Agreement is five years. The Company, among other things, will be responsible for marketing and administration of, and expenses relating to, the rewards program. The Bank will be responsible for issuing the cards. The Company receives a share of purchase transactions generated by a card holder and membership and initiation fees.

16. Shareholders’ Deficit

Series C 10% Preferred Stock

During 2010, the Company issued 18,365 shares of Series C 10% Preferred Stock (“Series C”) for $454,799. Each share of Series C sold for $30, can be converted at any time into 20 shares of common stock and has voting rights equal to 20 shares of common stock. In connection with the issuance of Series C, the Company issued 124,990 warrants with a life of 5 years to purchase a share of common stock for $2.00 per share. The Series C has liquidation preference over common stock at a liquidation value equal to its par value of $30 and pays a cumulative dividend of 10% per year, payable on July 31 and December 31of each year that the Series C is outstanding. Interest payments may be made in cash or in common stock at the discretion of the Company. The Series C automatically convert into 20 shares of common stock when the closing price for a share of common stock is $5.00 or above and the average daily trading volume for the 10 previous trading days is above 200,000 shares. Given the losses recorded by the Company, the stock equivalents related to the Series C are not included in the calculation of earnings per share since the effect of such inclusion would be antidilutive.

Since the Series C contains an embedded conversion feature, the Company performed an analysis of the Series C under ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging.” This analysis determined that the embedded conversion feature was not required to be bifurcated and accounted separately from the Series C because the economic risks and characteristics of the embedded conversion feature were clearly and closely related to the economic risks and characteristics of the host contract Series C, namely the risks of the common stock. The value of the beneficial conversion feature was $26,945, which was charged to equity at the time of issuance and was not included in the calculation of earnings per share. The beneficial conversion feature was calculated as the difference of the fair value of the conversion price and the intrinsic value of the preferred shares.

The Series C contains a share adjustment provision that provides for additional shares to be issued if the thirty-day volume weighted average price of the Company’s common stock (“VWAP”) is between $1.00 and $2.00 180 days after the purchase of Series C. If the VWAP is above $2.00, no action is taken. If the VWAP is between $1.00 to $2.00, additional shares are issued to the holder such that the total of the number of common shares issuable upon conversion, which is the number of Series C shares times 20 (“Conversion Shares”), plus the additional shares together equals the VWAP price equals the Conversion Shares times $2.00. If the VWAP is below $1.00 the number of additional shares are calculated as if the price were $1.00, not the actual VWAP. Once this 180-day period passes and the Company has issued the appropriate shares, if any, then Price Protection provisions of this Agreement will expire and the Company will be completely released from any future claims by the Purchaser related to this share adjustment provision.

The Company determined that derivative accounting for the embedded conversion and the share adjustment features were not required pursuant to ASC 815-10-15-74 because the features and the shares are indexed to the company’s own stock under ASC 815-40-15 (EITF Issue 07-5); the features can be classified in shareholders’ equity under ASC 815-40 (EITF Issue 00-19, paragraphs 1-11) and that Series C is classified as a conventional convertible so the embedded conversion feature can be classified in stockholders’ equity under ASC 815-40 (Issue 00-19, paragraphs 12-32). The determination was made by the Company that the Series C is a conventional convertible because the freestanding warrant is indexed to the company’s own stock under ASC 815-40-15 (EITF Issue 07-5); the freestanding warrant is classified in shareholders’ equity under ASC 815-40 (Issue 00-19, paragraphs 1-32); and the financial instrument does not include embedded puts and/or calls or other features that require bifurcation from the host contract under ASC 815.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2011, a shareholder converted 6,666 shares of Series C 10% preferred stock into 133,320 shares of common stock.

Series D 10% Preferred Stock

During the quarter ended March 31, 2011, the Company issued 9,000 shares of Series D 10% Preferred Stock (“Series D”) for $270,000. During 2010, the Company issued 5,999 shares of Series D for $170,921. Each share of Series C sold for $30, can be converted at any time into 60 shares of common stock and has voting rights equal to 60 shares of common stock. In connection with the issuance of Series D, the Company issued warrants to purchase 179,970 shares of common stock. The warrants have a life of 5 years to purchase a share of common stock for $1.00 per share. The Series D has liquidation preference over common stock at a liquidation value equal to its par value of $30 and pays a cumulative dividend of 10% per year, payable on July 31 and December 31 of each year that the Series D is outstanding. Interest payments may be made in cash or in common stock at the discretion of the Company. The Series D automatically convert into 60 shares of common stock when the closing price for a share of common stock is $5.00 or above and the average daily trading volume for the 10 previous trading days is above 200,000 shares. Given the losses recorded by the Company, the stock equivalents related to the Series D are not included in the calculation of earnings per share since the effect of such inclusion would be antidilutive.

Since the Series D contains an embedded conversion feature, the Company performed an analysis of the Series C under ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging.” This analysis determined that the embedded conversion feature was not required to be bifurcated and accounted separately from the Series D because the economic risks and characteristics of the embedded conversion feature were clearly and closely related to the economic risks and characteristics of the host contract Series D, namely the risks of the common stock. The value of the beneficial conversion feature was $26,945 which was charged to equity at the time of issuance and was not included in the calculation of earnings per share. The beneficial conversion feature was calculated as the difference of the fair value of the conversion price and the intrinsic value of the preferred shares.

The Series D contains a share adjustment provision that provides for additional shares to be issued if the thirty-day volume weighted average price of the Company’s common stock (“VWAP”) is between $0.50 and $1.00 180 days after the purchase of Series D. If the VWAP is above $1.00, no action is taken. If the VWAP is between $0.50 to $1.00, additional shares are issued to the holder such that the total of the number of common shares issuable upon conversion, which is the number of Series D shares times 60 (“Conversion Shares”), plus the additional shares together equals the VWAP price equals the Conversion Shares times $1.00. If the VWAP is below $0.50 the number of additional shares are calculated as if the price were $0.50, not the actual VWAP. Once this 180-day period passes and the Company has issued the appropriate shares, if any, then Price Protection provisions of this Agreement will expire and the Company will be completely released from any future claims by the Purchaser related to this share adjustment provision.

The Company determined that derivative accounting for the embedded conversion and the share adjustment features was not required pursuant to ASC 815-10-15-74 because these features are indexed to the company’s own stock under ASC 815-40-15 (EITF Issue 07-5); the features can be classified in shareholders’ equity under ASC 815-40 (EITF Issue 00-19, paragraphs 1-11) and that Series D is classified as a conventional convertible so the features can be classified in stockholders’ equity under ASC 815-40 (Issue 00-19, paragraphs 12-32). The determination was made by the Company that the Series D is a conventional convertible because the freestanding warrant is indexed to the company’s own stock under ASC 815-40-15 (EITF Issue 07-5); the freestanding warrant is classified in shareholders’ equity under ASC 815-40 (Issue 00-19, paragraphs 1-32); and the financial instrument does not include embedded puts and/or calls or other features that require bifurcation from the host contract under ASC 815.

18. Segment Information

Each event and the Stratus Reward program is considered an operating segment pursuant to ASC 280 since each is budgeted separately and results of each event and the Stratus program are tracked separately to provide the chief operating decision maker information to assess and manage each event and the Stratus Program.

The characteristics of the Stratus Reward program are different than the events, so that operating segment is considered a reporting segment. The events share similar economic characteristics and are aggregated into a reporting segment pursuant to paragraph 17 of ASC 280. All of the events provide entertainment and the logistics and production processes and methods for each event are similar: sponsorship sales, ticket and concession sales, security, stages, public address systems and the like. While the demographic characteristics of the audience can vary by event, all events cater to consumer entertainment.

The Preferred Shares are convertible into the Common Stock of PEI. The amount of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion on a cumulative basis is equal to 95% of the sum of (a) the issued and outstanding shares of PEI as of the closing plus (b) any shares of PEI Common Stock issued after the closing upon exercise or conversion of any derivative securities of PEI outstanding as of the closing, subject to any adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations etc. and, in all cases, after giving effect to the shares issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares. The purchase price of the Preferred Shares is $2,000,000 which will be used by PEI for payment of outstanding liabilities of PEI, general working capital and other corporate purposes and repayment of all amounts due under a note of PEI with respect to advances made to PEI by the Company of $100,000. Closing of the purchase of the Preferred Shares is subject to certain conditions. Upon closing, all of the current directors of PEI will resign and the board of directors of PEI will consist of two designees of the Company and one designee of PEI. Paul Feller, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, will become PEI’s Chief Executive Officer. Certain present and former key PEI executives will continue with PEI.

On February 4, 2010, the Company entered into an Amendment to the SIA (the “Amendment”), dated as of January 26, 2010, with PEI pursuant to which the parties amended the terms of the SIA entered into between PEI and the Company dated October 21, 2009. The Amendment (i) provides for certain interim funding by the Company to PEI prior to the closing, and contains representations regarding the Company’s ability to provide all funds necessary to perform its obligations under the SIA and the Amendment, (ii) extends the outside date for the Closing to March 31, 2010, (iii) conditionally provides for changes in the board and management of PEI, subject to the Company’s timely compliance with delivery of specified payments to PEI and third parties (the “Management Change”), (iv) credits against the Purchase Price certain expenses and amounts already loaned by the Company, (v) provides for the convertibility of amounts previously loaned into Preferred Stock of PEI on a pro-rata basis, (v) provides that all of the conditions to closing in Section 6.1 of the Agreement, have been satisfied to date and that, notwithstanding such conditions (other than the condition regarding legal compliance and certain ministerial conditions), the Company is unconditionally obligated to consummate the purchase and other transactions contemplated by the SIA and the Amendment and pay the full Purchase Price (applying such credits as provided in the Amendment), (vi) provides for a guarantee of certain obligations of the Company, (vii) provides for an enforcement mechanism independent of the newly appointed board and management until the Closing and (viii) provides for application of certain post-closing covenants to the interim period.

On March 30, 2010, the Company entered into Amendment number 2 to the SIA, which provided for an extension of the closing date to May 14, 2010 under the terms and conditions of the SIA and the previous Amendment, and required the Company to continue to fund the operations of PEI and the auditors of PEI. On May 12, 2010, the Company entered into Amendment number 3 to the SIA, which extended the closing date to September 30, 2010 under the terms and conditions of the SIA and the previous amendments, and required the Company to continue to fund the operations of PEI and all parties associated with the audit of PEI. On September 29, 2010, the Company entered into Amendment number 4 to the SIA, which extended the closing date to July 31, 2010 under the terms and conditions of the SIA and the previous amendments (see footnote 21 “Subsequent events”). On July 30, 2010, the Company entered into Amendment number 5 to the SIA, which extended the closing date to October 31, 2010 under the terms and conditions of the SIA and the prior amendments and required the Company to make a defined payment to legal counsel for PEI. On October 30, 2010, the Company entered into Amendment number 6 to the SIA, which extended the closing date to November 30, 2010. The Company entered into Amendment number 7 to the SIA, which extended the closing date to March 31, 2011. The Company has verbally agreed to extend the closing date May 17, 2011.

20. Subsequent Events

Description of Business

Overview

Stratus Business Plan

The business plan of Stratus is to operate the Stratus Rewards program and to own and realize all available event revenue rights from tickets/admissions, corporate sponsorship, television, print, radio, Internet, merchandising, and hospitality. With additional funding, the objective of management is to build a profitable business by implementing an aggressive acquisition growth plan to acquire quality companies, build corporate infrastructure, and increase organic growth. The plan is to leverage operational efficiencies across an expanded portfolio of events to reduce costs and increase revenues. The Company intends to promote the Stratus Rewards card and its events together, obtaining maximum cross marketing benefit among card members, corporate sponsors and Stratus events.

Stratus uses a “roll up” strategy, targeting sports and live entertainment events and companies that are independently owned and operated or being divested by larger companies with the plan to aggregate them into one large leading live entertainment company. The strategy is to purchase these events for approximately four to six times Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”) of the events, with the expectation that the combined EBITDA of the Company from these events will receive a higher valuation multiple in the public markets.

Assuming the availability of capital, Stratus is targeting acquisitions of event properties. The goal is to aggressively build-up a critical mass of events, venues and companies that allow for numerous cross-event synergies. Specifically:

●

On the expense side, to share sales, financial and operations resources across multiple events, creating economies of scale, increasing the Company’s purchasing power, eliminating duplicative costs, and bringing standardized operating and financial procedures to all events, thus increasing the margins of all events.

●	On the revenue side, to present advertisers and corporate sponsors an exciting and diverse menu of demographics and programming that allows sponsors “one stop shopping” rather than having to deal with each event on its own, and in so doing, convert these sponsors into “strategic partners.”

With these core operational synergies and subject to available capital, Stratus intends to (1) expand its acquisition strategy of additional live sports and entertainment events and companies, (2) create entirely new event properties on the forefront of the “experience economy” and thus tap into people’s lifestyle passions, and (3) cross-promote the Stratus Rewards Visa card with these events to enhance the results of the card and event businesses.

The business plan of Stratus is to provide integrated event management, television programming, marketing, talent representation and consulting services in the sports and other live entertainment industries. Stratus’s event management, television programming and marketing services may involve:

●	managing sporting events, such as college bowl games, golf tournaments and auto racing team and events;
●	managing live entertainment events, such as music festivals, car shows and fashion shows;

●	producing television programs, principally sports entertainment and live entertainment programs; and
●	marketing athletes, models and entertainers and organizations.

Description of our Revenues, Costs and Expenses

Revenues

Our past revenues have included event revenues from ticket sales, sponsorships, concessions and merchandise, which are recorded when the event occurs, and Stratus revenues from membership fees, fees on purchases and interest income earned on the redemption trust. Membership fees and related expenses are amortized over the twelve month period and fees from purchases and interest income are recorded when they occur.

Gross Profit (Loss)

Our gross profit represents revenues less the cost of goods sold. Our event cost of goods sold consists of the costs renting the venue, structures at the venue, concessions, and temporary personnel hired for the event. Cost of goods sold for the Stratus program are nominal.

Operating Expenses

Our selling, general and administrative expenses include personnel, rent, travel, office and other costs for selling and promoting events and running the administrative functions of the Company. Legal and professional services are paid to outside attorneys, auditors and consultants are broken out separately given the size of these expenses relative to selling, general and administrative expenses. Operating expenses also include expenses for impairment of goodwill, fair value expenses for issuing common stock for consideration less than the number of shares issued valued at market closing price on the day of issuance, and Black-Scholes expenses for options and warrants.

Interest Expense

Our interest expense results from accruing interest on a court judgment, loans payable to shareholders, current portion of notes payable-related parties and notes payable.

Critical Accounting Policies

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist of goodwill related to certain events and the Stratus Rewards Visa White Card that we have acquired. Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquired entity over the net amounts assigned to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. We apply the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, which requires allocating goodwill to each reporting unit and testing for impairment using a two-step approach.

The Company purchased several events that are recorded on the Company’s balance sheet as intangible assets the consideration paid for such assets, which generally include licensing rights, naming rights, merchandising rights and the right to hold such event in particular geographic locations. There was no goodwill assigned to any of these events and the value of the consideration paid for each event is considered to be the value for each related intangible asset. Each event has separate accounts for tracking revenues and expenses per event and a separate account to track the asset valuation.

To review the value of intangible assets and related goodwill, the Company compares discounted cash flow forecasts with the stated value of the assets on the balance sheet.

These forecasts are discounted at a range of discount rates determined by taking the risk-free interest rate at the time of valuation, plus premiums for equity risk and small companies in general, factors specific to the Company and the business that range from 10.0% for events to 40% for the Stratus Rewards Visa card. The total discount rates ranged from 35% for events to 65% for the Stratus Rewards program. Terminal values are determined by taking cash flows in year five of the forecast, then applying an annual growth of 2.2% to 4.1% for the next seven years and discounting that stream of cash flows by the discount rate used for that section of the business.

If the Company determines that the discount factor for cash flows should be increased, or the event will not be able to being operations when planned, it is possible that the values for the intangible assets currently on the balance sheet could be substantially reduced or eliminated, which could result in a maximum charge to operations equal to the current carrying value of the intangible assets of $3,317,680.

We believe the events carried as intangible assets on the balance sheet will generate revenues and be profitable because they were profitable when they were acquired by Stratus and the Company has demonstrated that it can operate events in a profitable manner.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2011

Revenues

Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2011 (“Current Period”) were $0, which was the same for the three months ended March 31, 2010 (“Prior Period”). It is anticipated that revenues will commence for events starting in the third quarter of 2011.

Gross Profit

There were no cost of revenues in either the Current Period or the Prior Period, so the gross profit in the Current Period was $0 and the gross profit in the Prior Period was $0.

Operating Expenses

Overall operating expenses for the Current Period were $1,674,375, an increase of $478,257, or 40%, from $1,196,118 in the Prior Period. This increase was primarily due to a $574,660 increase in general and administrative expenses reflecting greater payroll expenses as the Company increased staff to have in place for the commencement of revenues. There was a decrease in warrant and option expense of $147,425. Legal and professional services were $280,090 in the Current Period, an increase of $49,526 versus $230,564 in the Prior Period. The Company continues to defend the lawsuits set forth in detail in the footnotes to the financial statements.

Other Expense

Other expense decreased by $522,188 in the Current Period from $525,378 in the Prior Period, which was for an expense that did not repeat in 2011 for the issuance of 477,616 shares of common stock to settle a dispute with a long-term shareholder regarding the number of shares issued pursuant to a subscription agreement executed during 2007.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $36,813 in the Current Period, an increase of $22,065 from $14,747 in the Prior Period, primarily for interest associated with the preferred stock outstanding and an increase in interest-bearing debt to an officer of the Company.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The report of our independent registered public accounting firm on the financial statements for the year ended 2010 contains an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as a result of recurring losses, a working capital deficiency, and negative cash flows. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that would be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.

During 2010, we sold 3,474,230 shares to investors for $2,310,000. The Company is actively pursuing equity capital and is targeting an initial raise of $10 million to $20 million. The proceeds raised will be used for operational expenses, settling existing liabilities, acquisitions and selling expenses. Due to our history of operating losses and the current credit constraints in the capital markets, we cannot assure you that such financing will be available to us on favorable terms, or at all. If we cannot obtain such financing, we will be forced to curtail our operations or may not be able to continue as a going concern, and we may become unable to satisfy our obligations to our creditors. In such an event we will need to enter into discussions with our creditors to settle, or otherwise seek relief from, our obligations.

As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, our principal sources of liquidity consisted of increases to the Company’s accounts payable and accrued expenses and the issuance of equity securities. In addition to funding operations, our principal short-term and long-term liquidity needs have been, and are expected to be, the settling of obligations to our creditors, capital expenditures, the funding of operating losses until we achieve profitability, and general corporate purposes. In addition, commensurate with our level of sales, we will require working capital for sales and marketing costs to market our event properties. At December 31, 2010, we had no cash on hand and we had negative working capital of $4,317,164. At March 31, 2011, we had no cash on hand and we had negative working capital of $4,892,972.

The Company raised $270,000 in capital through the issuance of preferred stock and $200,000 from the receipt of a stock subscription receivable for common stock in the three months ended March 31, 2011. The Company is actively seeking additional capital to establish operations, restart the card and event businesses and complete and integrate targeted acquisitions. During the period April 1, 2011 through May 14, 2011, the Company raised additional funds of $1,045,000 through the issuance of 2,612,500 shares of common stock. The Company believes this financing coupled with future positive cash flow from operations should result in the future removal of the going concern qualification of the audit opinion similar to the one rendered by our independent auditors for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.

The following table sets forth our cash flows as of the dates indicated:
