XA, The Experiential Agency, Inc. (“XA”)
XA, The Experiential Agency, Inc. (XA) is CMG’s wholly owned subsidiary engaged in event marketing and management. Acquired in 2009, XA engages in a diverse range of marketing services, including interactive event strategy and planning, creative development, public relations, and nontraditional marketing. XA has staged movie and show premiers, cross country tours, hosted VIP events, staged press stunts, and other types of media events and services for leading shows, production houses, non-profit agencies and local communities across the United States. In addition to the physical planning, logistics and event implementation, XA typically takes over responsibility for the interactive side of the events to increase branding awareness over the Internet.
Key differentiators that provide the Company strong competitive advantage are its long-term presence and is in its 20th year as a successful top tier event marketing agency; outstanding long-term vendor relationships that help deliver exceptional programs to its clients; vertical integration gives its clients a single-source for all their event marketing needs, which management believes will require less outsourcing and increased profitability and delivering superior customer service and creates one-of-a-kind events and programs
XA, The Experiential Agency, Inc. (“XA”) Business Model
Rooted in brand creativity and client partnerships, XA maintains unique client relationships by anticipating client challenges and providing innovative solutions. The XA business model is taking strategic marketing programs to new levels of audience experience through alternative advertising and experiential marketing and interactive media solutions. The XA marketing capabilities enable their clients and audience to “Experience” events compared to just hearing or seeing their client’s messages through holistic experiences to boost sales and increase brand awareness and customer affinity.
While XA continues to seek opportunities and win projects from Fortune 100 clients in the larger enterprise segment, their management team believes that rapid revenue growth opportunities and margin improvements are available in the comprehensive advisory services of the small to medium enterprise (SME) segment. Typically, the SME segment tends not to attract the attention of the very large players in the marketing industry as the focus is on multinationals and other national corporate clients. The SME market has many smaller firms that specialize in only a few aspects of the event marketing and business communications segments, yet SME’s face equally important challenges in terms of brand building and content management. By acting as a comprehensive integrated single source for the total marketing needs of the SME’s, XA has created a niche for itself on a national scale and will replicate the same success strategy internationally under the Company’s holding company model. Given the fact that brand marketers are demanding a full service agency for developing and executing integrated marketing campaigns, management believes that XA will take advantage of the accelerating secular trend of shifts in corporate emphasis toward face-to-face and online event / promotional marketing versus traditional media driven selling efforts. XA is specifically focused to strategically target key segments within the event marketing space in order to capture market share in its existing geographic locations as well as enhance its national and international presence via expansion. XA is positioning itself as the Single Source Marketing Partner with its unique selling point being the ability to act as a single source for the client’s total marketing needs. This would encompass the entire spectrum of services associated with marketing, from strategizing and defining an event portfolio, conceptualization of the event theme and content creation to the final implementation / management of events. XA will also provide an ultimate client Return on Investment assessment following each implementation

Sources of Revenue
Our revenues are generated through the execution of marketing and communications programs derived primarily across the sectors of event management, talent management and commercial rights as well as various media, planning and execution of other management programs. The majority of our contracts with our clients are negotiated individually and the terms of engagement with our clients and basis in which we earn fees and commissions will vary significantly. Contracts with our client are multifaceted arrangements that may include incentive compensation provisions and may include vendor credits. Our largest clients are corporations where they may arrange for our services to be provided via locally or nationally across various sectors and across multiple divisions. Similar to larger marketing communications holdings companies operating in our sector; our revenues are primarily derived from planning and executing marketing and communications programs in various operating sectors. Most of our client contracts are individually negotiated where terms of engagements and consideration in which we earn revenues vary among planning, creation, implementation and executions of marketing and communications programs specific to the sectors of talent management, event management, and commercial rights. Several of our clients have complex contract arrangements; therefore we provide services to our clients out of our own offices as well events that we service onsite. In arranging for such services, we may enter into national or local agreements and estimates are involved in determining both amount and timing of revenue recognition under these arrangements.
Our fees are calculated to reflect our expertise based on monthly rates as well as mark-up percentages and the relative overhead expenses to execute services provided to our clients. Clients may seek to include incentive compensation components for successful execution as part of the total compensation. Commissions earned are based on services provided and are usually calculated on a percentage over the total revenues generated for our clients. Our revenues can also be generated when clients pay gross rates before we pay reduced rates; the difference is commissions earned which is either retained in total or shared with the client depending on the nature of the services agreement. To reduce risks from non-payments from our clients, we typically pay company generated expenses only after we have received fun dsfunds from our clients. Our generated revenues are dependent upon the marketing and communications requirements of our corporate clients and depend on the terms of the client contract. The revenues for services performed can be recognized as proportional performance, monthly basis and execution of the completed contracts. Revenues recognized on a completed contract basis and as customary in the industry, our contracts generally provide for termination by either party on relatively short notice, usually 90 days.
Competition
In the competitive, highly fragmented marketing and communications industry, our company competes for business with midsize marketing firms such as Alloy Marketing,Mktg, Inc., Mktg, Inc, as well as large global holding companies such as International Management Group, Interpublic Group of Companies, Inc., MDC Partners, Inc. and Omnicom. These global holding companies generally have greater resources than those available us, and such resources may enable them to aggressively compete with the Company’s marketing communications businesses. We also face competition from numerous independent agencies that operate in multiple markets and wwe must compete with these other companies to maintain existing client relationships and to obtain new clients and assignments. We compete at this level by providing clients with marketing strategies that a reare focused on increasing clients’ revenues and profits.
Industry Trends
Historically, event management and talent management have been primary service provided by global holding companies in the marketing communications industry. However, as clients aim to establish individual and enhanced relationships with their customers to more accurately measure the effectiveness of their marketing expenditures, specialized and digital communications services are consuming a growing portion of marketing dollars. This increases the demand for a broader range of marketing communications services. The mass market audience is giving way to life-style segments, social events/networks, and online/mobile communities, each segment requiring a different message and/or different, often non-traditional, channels of communication. Global marketers now seek innovative strategies, concepts and programs for new oppor tunitiesopportunities for small to mid-sized communications companies.
Clients
The Company serves clients across the marketing communication industry and may have same clients across various sectors. Marketing agreements and talent representation for our clients rarely means that the company handles marketing communications multiple brands, product lines of the client in every geographical location. We have written contracts with many of our clients and as is customary in the industry, these contracts provide for termination by either party on relatively short notice. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis — Executive Overview” for a further discussion of our arrangements with our clients.

Risks Related to Our Business Our independent registered accounting firm has expressed doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Because we have a working capital deficit and recurring net losses, our independent registered accounting firm has included in their report for the years ended December 31, 2012, an uncertainty with respect to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
Current economic conditions and the global financial crisis may have an impact on our business and financial condition in ways that we currently cannot predict
The global economy has experienced a significant contraction, with an unprecedented lack of consumer credit within the credit markets and the shift away from discretionary spending within the marketing, communications. The decrease in the economic activity in the United States and in the commercial sectors in which we conduct business could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. Continued tightness within the credit markets, volatility, instability and economic weakness of our clients marketing budgets and decrease in discretionary consumer spending associated with our clients business spending may result in a reduction in our revenues.
7
Business could be adversely affected if it loses key clients and key management
The Company’s loss of one or more significant clients could materially affect results of the Company on a consolidated basis. Our Management is critically important to ongoing results of the Company because, as in any service business, success of the Company is mainly dependent upon the leadership of key executives and management. If key executives were to leave any of our operating divisions, the relationships that the Company has with its clients could be adversely affected.
Competition for clients in highly competitive industries
The Company operates in a very competitive industry characterized by numerous firms of varying sizes, with no group of firms having dominant positions in the marketplace. Competitive factors include creative expertise, executive management’s, personal relationships, quality and reliability of service and expertise in particular niche areas of the marketplace. In addition, our company’s principal asset is its people, barriers to entry are minimal, and relatively small firms may be on occasion able to take some portion of a client’s business from a larger competitor. While many of the Company’s client relationships are long-standing, clients may at times place their marketing services businesses up for competitive review from time to time, including at times when clients enter into strategic transactions. To the extent that the Company fails to maintain existing clients or attract new clients, the Company’s business, financial condition and operating results may be affected in a materially adverse manner.
Ability to generate new business from new and existing clients may be limited
To increase revenues, the Company needs to obtain additional clients, generate demand for additional services from existing clients and partner with external marketing firms to mutually service as single or multiple of clients. The company’s ability to generate demand for its services from new clients, additional demand from existing clients partner with external marketing firms to mutually service as single or multiple of clients is subject to clients’ requirements, pre-existing vendor relationships, financial condition, strategic plans and internal resources, as well as the quality of the Company’s employees, services and reputation and the breadth of its services. To the extent the Company cannot generate new business from new and existing clients due to these limitations; it will li mitlimit the Company’s ability to grow its business and to increase its revenues.
Revenues are susceptible to declines as a result of general adverse economic developments
The marketing communications services industry is cyclical and is subject to the negative effects of economic downturns. The Company’s marketing services operations are also exposed to the risk of clients changing their business plans and/or reducing their marketing budgets. As a result, if the U.S. markets and economies continue to weaken, our businesses, financial condition and gross revenues are likely to be negatively affected may be suspect to declines from quarter to quarter or from year to year.
Benefits expected from current acquisition or prior acquisitions made in the future may not be realized
The Company’s business strategy includes ongoing efforts to engage in material acquisitions of ownership interests in entities in the marketing communications services industry. The Company intends to finance these acquisitions by using any available cash from operations, through incurrence of debt or bridge financing or by issuing equity, which may have a dilutive impact on its existing shareholders. At any given time the Company may be engaged in a number of discussions that may result in one or more material acquisitions. These opportunities require confidentiality and may involve negotiations that require quick responses by the Company. Although there is uncertainty that any of these discussions will result in definitive agreements or the completion of any transactions, the announcement of any such transaction may lead to in creasedincreased volatility in the trading price of its securities.
The success of acquisitions or strategic investments depends on the effective integration of newly acquired businesses into the Company’s current operations. Such integration is subject to risks and uncertainties, including realization of anticipated synergies and cost savings, the ability to retain and attract personnel and clients, the diversion of management’s attention from other business concerns, and undisclosed or potential legal liabilities of the acquired company. The Company may not realize the strategic and financial benefits that it expects from any of its past acquisitions, or any future acquisitions.
8
Business could be adversely affected if it loses or fails to attract key employees
Our executive management and our employees, including creative, research, media, account and their skills and relationships with clients, are among the Company’s most critically important assets. An important aspect of the Company’s competitiveness is its ability to retain key employee and executive management. The compensation for these key employees is an essential factor in attracting and retaining them and the Company may not offer a level of compensation sufficient to attract and retain these key employees. If the Company fails to hire and retain a sufficient number of these key employees, it may not be able to compete effectively.
Business exposed to the risk of client media account defaults
The Company often incurs expenses on behalf of its clients in order to secure a variety of opportunities in exchange for which it receives a fee. While the Company acts to prevent against default on payment for these services and have historically had a very low incidence of default, the Company is still exposed to the risk of significant uncollectible receivables from our clients.
Subject to regulations that could restrict its activities or negatively impact its revenues
Marketing communications businesses are subject to government regulation, both domestic and foreign. There has been an increasing tendency in the United States on the part of advertisers to resort to litigation and self-regulatory bodies to challenge comparative advertising on the grounds that the advertising is false and deceptive. Moreover, there has recently been an expansion of specific rules, prohibitions, media restrictions, labeling disclosures and warning requirements with respect to advertising for certain products. Representatives within government bodies, both domestic and foreign, continue to initiate proposals to ban the advertising of specific products and to impose taxes on or deny deductions for advertising which, if successful, may have an adverse effect on advertising expenditures and consequently the Company’s revenues.
The results of operations are subject to currency fluctuation risks
Although the Company’s financial results are reported in U.S. dollars, a portion of its revenues and operating costs may be denominated in currencies other than the US dollar. As a result, fluctuations in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and other currencies, may affect the Company’s financial results and competitive position.
Company directors and executive officers beneficially own a substantial percentage of the Company’s outstanding common stock, which gives them control over certain major decisions on which stockholders may vote, which may discourage an acquisition of the Company
In the aggregate, the directors and executive officers as a group collectively own approximately 35%23% of the Company’s outstanding shares. The interests of the Company’s management may differ from the interests of other stockholders and as a result, the Company’s executive management may have the ability to control virtually all corporate actions requiring stockholder approval, irrespective of how the Company’s other stockholders may vote, including electing or defeating the election of directors; amending or preventing amendment of the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws; effecting or preventing a merger, sale of assets or other corporate transaction; and controlling the outcome of any other matter submitted to the stockholders for vote. The Company’s management’s stock ownership may discourage a potential acquirer from seeking to acquire shares of the Company’s common stock or otherwise attempting to obtain control of the Company, which in turn could reduce the Company’s stock price or prevent the Company’s stockholders from realizing a premium over the Company’s stock price.

On April 11, 2011 the Company assigned $135,000 of its account payable from a third party to Connied, Inc. On May 3, 2011, the Company amended the assigned account payable to add a conversion feature. The new note was convertible at 50% of the average of the five lowest closing prices for the Company's stock during the previous 30 trading days. On the same date, the Company issued 1,388,889 shares of common stock with a fair value of $97,222 to settle $50,000 of the note. The difference between the fair value of the common stock and the debt was recorded as a loss on settlement of debt during the year ended December 31, 2011. The remaining balance of $85,000 was recorded as short term debt in the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2011. The note bears interest at 20% and is due on May 2, 2013. The Company analyzed the conversion option for derivative accounting consideration under ASC 815-15 “Derivatives and Hedging” and determined that the embedded conversion feature should be classified as a liability due to their being no explicit limit to the number of shares to be delivered upon settlement of the above conversion options. The embedded conversion feature was measured at fair value at inception and on the date of conversion (see below) with the change in fair value recorded to earnings. The addition of the embedded conversion option resulted in a full discount to the note of $85,000 on May 3, 2011. The discount will be amortized over the term of the note to interest expense.

The fair value of the embedded conversion option resulted in a full discount to the note of $75,000 on the day the conversion option became effective.

See Note 5 for additional information on the derivative liability. Public company compliance may make it more difficult to attract and retain officers and directors
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and new rules subsequently implemented by the SEC have required changes in corporate governance practices of public companies. As a public entity, the Company expects these new rules and regulations to increase compliance costs in 20092010 and beyond and to make certain activities more time consuming and costly. As a public entity, the Company also expects that these new rules and regulations may make it more difficult and expensive for the Company to obtain director and officer liability insurance in the future and it may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult for the Company to attract and retain qualified persons to serve as directors or as executive officers.
There is currently no liquid trading market for the Company’s common stock and the Company cannot ensure that one will ever develop or be sustained
The Company’s common stock is currently approved for quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board trading under the symbol CMGO.OB.OTCQB. However, there is limited trading activity and not currently a liquid trading market. There is no assurance as to when or whether a liquid trading market will develop, and if such a market does develop, there is no assurance that it will be maintained. Furthermore, for companies whose securities are quoted on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board maintained by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (the “OTCBB”“OTCQB”), it is more difficult (1) to obtain accurate quotations, (2) to obtain coverage for significant news events because major wire services generally do not publish press releases about such companies, and (3) to obtain needed capital. As a result, pur chaserspurchasers of the Company’s common stock may have difficulty selling their shares in the public market, and the market price may be subject to significant volatility.
The Company’s stock price may be volatile
The market price of the Company’s common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s control, including the following: technological innovations or new products and services by the Company or its competitors; additions or departures of key personnel; limited “public float” following the Reorganization , in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negative pricing pressure on the market price for the common stock; the Company’s ability to execute its business plan; operating results that fall below expectations; loss of any strategic relationship; industry developments; economic and other external factors; and period-to-period fluctuations in the Compan y’sCompany’s financial results. In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of the Company’s common stock.
Offers or availability for sale of a substantial number of shares of the Company’s common stock may cause the price of the Company’s common stock to decline or could affect the Company’s ability to raise additional working capital
If the Company’s current stockholders seek to sell substantial amounts of common stock in the public market either upon expiration of any required holding period under Rule 144 or pursuant to an effective registration statement, it could create a circumstance commonly referred to as “overhang,” in anticipation of which the market price of the Company’s common stock could fall substantially. The existence of an overhang, whether or not sales have occurred or are occurring, also could make it more difficult for the Company to raise additional financing in the future through sale of securities at a time and price that the Company deems acceptable.

The Company’s common stock is currently deemed to be “penny stock”, which makes it more difficult for investors to sell their shares
The Company’s common stock is currently subject to the “penny stock” rules adopted under section 15(g) of the Exchange Act. The penny stock rules apply to companies whose common stock is not listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market or other national securities exchange and trades at less than $5.00 per share or that have tangible net worth of less than $5,000,000 ($2,000,000 if the company has been operating for three or more years). These rules require, among other things, that brokers who trade penny stock to persons other than “established customers” complete certain documentation, make suitability inquiries of investors and provide investors with certain information concerning trading in the security, including a risk disclosure document and quote information under certain circumstances. Many brokers have de cideddecided not to trade penny stocks because of the requirements of the penny stock rules and, as a result, the number of broker-dealers willing to act as market makers in such securities is limited. If the Company remains subject to the penny stock rules for any significant period, it could have an adverse effect on the market, if any, for the Company’s securities. If the Company’s securities are subject to the penny stock rules, investors will find it more difficult to dispose of the Company’s securities.
The elimination of monetary liability against the Company’s directors, officers and employees under Nevada law and the existence of indemnification rights to the Company’s directors, officers and employees may result in substantial expenditures by the Company and may discourage lawsuits against the Company’s directors, officers and employees
The Company’s certificate of incorporation does not contain any specific provisions that eliminate the liability of directors for monetary damages to the Company and the Company’s stockholders; however, the Company is prepared to give such indemnification to its directors and officers to the extent provided by Nevada law. The Company may also have contractual indemnification obligations under its employment agreements with its executive officers. The foregoing indemnification obligations could result in the Company incurring substantial expenditures to cover the cost of settlement or damage awards against directors and officers, which the Company may be unable to recoup. These provisions and resultant costs may also discourage the Company from bringing a lawsuit against directors and officers for breaches of their fid uciaryfiduciary duties and may similarly discourage the filing of derivative litigation by the Company’s stockholders against the Company’s directors and officers even though such actions, if successful, might otherwise benefit the Company and its stockholdersstockholders.

Penny Stock Considerations
Because our shares trade at less than $5.00 per share, they are “penny stocks” as that term is generally defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to mean equity securities with a price of less than $5.00. Our shares thus will be subject to rules that impose sales practice and disclosure requirements on broker-dealers who engage in certain transactions involving a penny stock. Under the penny stock regulations, a broker-dealer selling a penny stock to anyone other than an established customer or accredited investor must make a special suitability determination regarding the purchaser and must receive the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the sale, unless the bro ker-dealerbroker-dealer is otherwise exempt. Generally, an individual with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $100,000 individually or $300,000 together with his or her spouse is considered an accredited investor. In addition, under the penny stock regulations the broker-dealer is required to deliver, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prepared by the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the penny stock market, unless the broker-dealer or the transaction is otherwise exempt; disclose commissions payable to the broker-dealer and our registered representatives and current bid and offer quotations for the securities; Send monthly statements disclosing recent price information pertaining to the penny stock held in a customer’s account, the account’s value and information regarding the limited market in penny stocks; and make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purc haser’spurchaser’s written agreement to the transaction, prior to conducting any penny stock transaction in the customer’s account. Because of these regulations, broker-dealers may encounter difficulties in their attempt to sell shares of our common stock, which may affect the ability of selling shareholders or other holders to sell their shares in the secondary market and have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market. These additional sales practice and disclosure requirements could impede the sale of our securities, if our securities become publicly traded. In addition, the liquidity for our securities may be decreased, with a corresponding decrease in the price of our securities. Our shares in all probability will be subject to such penny stock rules and our shareholders will, in all likelihood, find it difficult to sell their securities.

The Company did not pay the principal of the note which triggered a $50,000 interest payment that was added to the principal amount of the note and an additional 400,000 warrants of The Company ;with the same terms as the previous 1 million warrants. The 400,000 warrants resulted in additional interest expense of $20,000. In August 2009 The Company entered into a forbearance agreement for the $150,000 and agreed to repay the amount in July 2010. The Company agreed to the following financial requirements: Cash Fees of $25,000 on August 17, 2009, October 1, 2009, January 1, 2010 and April 1, 2010. In the event that the company fails to pay JTV a cash fee on the date that the fee is due, at its sole option JT Venture will defer the cash fee to June 30, 2010 and The Company agrees to deliver to JTV a warrant (Fee Warrant) for 500,000 shares of The Company restricted common stock. The exercise price for the Fee Warrant shall be $0.05 per share and they expire in 7 years. Fee Warrants shall contain a “net exercise” provision in form and substance satisfactory to JT Ventures and shall have Piggyback Registration Rights to register t he common stock issued pursuant to the fee warrants as part of any registration filing by CMG Holdings, Inc. and or its successors and assignors. In addition to the cash fees to be paid to JT ventures, the company will deliver a warrant for 1 million shares of CMG common stock on August 17, 2009, October 1, 2009, January 1, 2010 and April 1, 2010. The warrants have an exercise price of $.001 and expire in 7 years.

CMG determined the forbearance agreement qualified for extinguishment accounting requiring the old debt be removed from the books and the new debt to be recorded at its fair value. As of December 31, 2009, the fair value of the new debt was $113,990 resulting in a gain on extinguishment of $19,565. The $75,000 in cash fees and the $143,999 in warrant fees have been accounted for as interest expense.
On December 3, 2009, the Company paid $100,000, of which $50,000 were applied to the cash fees due on August 17th and October 1st and the balance of $50,000 to, accrued interest. The total warrants in the Participation Agreement were reduced to 2,400,000 warrants and were issued to JTV on the same date.
On April 1, 2010, the Company paid $125,000 to fully satisfy the outstanding note payable of $100,000 and the cash fee due on January 1, 2010 to JTV pursuant to the Participation Agreement, Forbearance Agreement and Security Agreement. Since full payment was made prior to April 1, 2010, the cash fee due on such date was waived.

Deferred Payment Amount = (Average Company Net Income x Multiple Determination) - All Funding Provided to the Company by the Buyer to Satisfy the Working Capital Funding Obligation
Where
AVERAGE COMPANY NET INCOME = (YR1 + YR2 + YR3 + YR4) / 4
YR1 = the Company Net Income for Year 2010
YR2 = the Company Net Income for Year 2011
YR3 = the Company Net Income for Year 2012
YR4 = the Company Net Income for Year 2013
Where
MULTIPLE DETERMINATION = (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, OR 15)
10 = Average Growth of Company Net Income of 0.00% to 10.00%
11 = Average Growth of Company Net Income of 10.01% to 15.00%
12 = Average Growth of Company Net Income of 15.01% to 20.00%
13 = Average Growth of Company Net Income of 20.01% to 25.00%
14 = Average Growth of Company Net Income of 25.01% to 30.00%
15 = Average Growth of Company Net Income of 30.01% or greater
(With Average Growth of Company Net Income calculated over the entire YR1 to YR4 period.) For purposes of determining Company Net Income, no income from the Company derived from the Patent Strategy as set forth in Section 1.7(a) shall be included in the calculation of gross or net revenues of AudioEye or Average Growth of AudioEye Net Income. The Deferred Payment will consist of cash and newly issued common stock of the Company at a ratio of Fifty Percent (50%) cash and Fifty Percent (50%) common stock. The value assigned to each share of the Buyer’s restricted common stock to be issued as part of the Deferred Payment will equal the average close of trading price of the Company’s common stock during the sixty (60) day period immediately preceding the date the deferred payment is made to Sellers.
Background
CMG Holdings Group, Inc. was incorporated in Nevada in July 2004 under the name of Pebble Beach Enterprises, Inc. The Company has operated under the CMG Holdings Group, Inc. name since February 2008. The Company was formed in July of 2004 as Pebble Beach Enterprises, Inc. in the state of Nevada. From the date of incorporation until August of 2004, it was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fresh Veg Broker.com, Inc., a Nevada corporation. In August of 2004, the company was spun off from Fresh Veg. The Company until this Reorganization was a real estate investment company with three areas of operation: a) real estate acquisition and re-sale; b) real estate development and re-sale; and c) real estate consulting and joint ventures. Due to the inability to execute the real estate business plan and expand the business over th ethe past three years, on February 20, 2008 in anticipation of this Reorganization, a majority of the existing shares of the Company were sold by the shareholders who were actively involved in the Company’s prior real estate business, and as a result, we had a change of direction and a change of control of our Company.

The Reorganization
On May 27, 2008, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Reorganization Agreement” with its controlling shareholder, Creative Management Group, Inc., a privately held Delaware corporation (“Creative Management Group”).

Pursuant to the Reorganization Agreement, at closing, the shareholders of Creative Management Group received one share of the Company’s common stock previously owned by Creative Management Group for each issued and outstanding common share owned of Creative Management Group. As a result, 22,135,148 shares of the Company that were issued and previously owned by Creative Management Group are now owned directly by its shareholders. The 22,135,148 of Creative Management Group previously owned by its shareholders are now owned by the Company, thereby making Creative Management Group a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company did not issue any new shares as part of the Reorganization. Upon completion of the closing under the Reorganization Agreement, the Company hashad a total of 42,400,000 shares issued and 25,255,148 outstanding of which 20,264,852, or approximately 47.8% are held by persons who were previously shareholders of the Registrant, 22,135,148 shares, or approximately 52.2% are held by persons who were previously shareholders of Creative Management Group. Neit herNeither the Company nor Creative Management Group had any options or warrants to purchase shares of capital stock outstanding immediately prior to or following the Reorganization. All the shares of the Company’s common stock issued in connection with the Reorganization were registered under Section 12(b) or (g) of The Securities Exchange Act of 1934 when the Registrant filed Form 10-SB/A on June 28, 2006. All shares issued in connection with the Reorganization were issued from a “Control Shareholder”, which is a shareholder that is now or has been within the last 90 days a director or officer of the Company, or now owns or controls or within the last 90 days has owned or controlled 10% or more of the Company’s outstanding voting securities and is therefore subject to the restriction in accordance with Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1934.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
For all periods following closing under the Reorganization Agreement, the Company intends to prepare consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries, which will be prepared in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. During the preparation of the financial statements the Company will be required to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, the Company will evaluate its estimates and judgments, including those related to sales, returns, pricing concessions, bad debts, inventories, investments, fixed assets, intangible assets, income taxes and other contingencies. The Company intends to base its estimates on historical experien ceexperience and on various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under current conditions. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. In response to the SEC’s Release No. 33-8040, “Cautionary Advice Regarding Disclosure About Critical Accounting Policy,” the Registrant identified the most critical accounting principles upon which its financial status depends. The Registrant determined that those critical accounting principles are related to the use of estimates, revenue recognition, income tax and impairment of intangibles and other long-lived assets. The Company presents these accounting policies in the relevant sections in this management’s discussion and analysis, including the Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements discussed below. Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates are made when accounting for revenue (as discussed below under “Revenue Recognition”), depreciation, amortization, bad debt reserves, income taxes and certain other contingencies. The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to vary from estimates. The Company reviews all significant estimates affecting the financial statements on a recurring basis and records the effects of any adjustments when necessary.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenues generated from clients are subject to contracts requiring the Company to provide services within specified time periods generally ranging up to twelve months. As a result, we have projects in process at various stages of completion on any given date and stages may extend from one quarter to the next quarter and from one year to the next year. Revenue for our services is recognized when the following criteria are satisfied: evidence of an arrangement exists; price is agreed upon at a fixed or determinable agreement level; services have been performed and collection is assured. Depending on terms of a client contract, fees for services performed can be recognized in three principal ways: individual project performances as is such in our event marketing division, monthly base retainers in our public relations, consulting or talent management division, and completed contracts were the Company work is based on success fee of the engagement and paid a percentage of the revenue generated by our clients. Depending on the terms of the client contract, revenue is derived from arrangements involving fees for services performed, commissions, performance or a combinations of each or all three. The revenues and commissions are generally earned on the date of the signing of the contract and then an invoice is distributed to the client with approvals. Our revenue is recorded as gross revenues less cost of goods sold or less pass-through expenses charged to a client because there may be various pass-through expenses, such as external production and marketing costs.
If the Company does not accurately manage our projects properly within the planned periods of time to satisfy our obligations under the contracts, then future profit margins may be significantly and negatively affected or losses on existing contracts may need to be recognized. Outside production costs consist primarily of costs to purchase media and program merchandise; costs of production; merchandise warehousing and distribution; third party contract fulfillment costs; and other costs directly related to marketing programs. Revenue recognition will not result in related billings throughout the duration of a contract due to timing differences between the contracted billing schedule and the time such revenue is recognized. In such instances, when revenue is recognized in an amount in excess of the contracted billing amount, we record s uchsuch excess on our balance sheet as unbilled contracts in progress. Alternatively, on a scheduled billing date, should the billing amount exceed the amount of revenue recognized, we record such excess on our balance sheet as deferred revenue. In addition, on contracts where reimbursable costs are incurred prior to the time revenue is recognized on such contracts, we record such costs as deferred contract costs on our balance sheet. Notwithstanding this, labor costs for permanent employees are expensed as incurred.

Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatements. 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 CMG Holdings, Inc.the Company as of December 31, 20092012 and 20082011 and the results of itstheir operations and itstheir cash flows for the years 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 211 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has negative working capital and suffered recurring losses from operations, and has a working capital deficit as of December 31, 2009. These conditions raisewhich raises substantial doubt about the Company’sits ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regards to theseregarding those matters are also described in Note 2.11. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

CMG HOLDINGS GROUP, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2012 and 2011
NOTE 1: DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Concentrations of Risk
The companyCompany maintains its cash balances at two financial institutions where they are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000 each. At December 31, 2009,2012 and 2011, neither of these accounts was in excess of the limit. The companyCompany also maintains a money market investment account at one securities firm where the account is insured by the Securities Investor Protection Corporation up to $500,000 for the bankruptcy, etc., of the securities firm. At December 31, 2008,2012 and 2011, the account had no balance in excess of the limit.
Revenue and Cost Recognition
In general, the companyCompany recognizes revenues when earned, when the services or conditions relating to the services have been performed or satisfied by the entity, and recognizes costs when the expenses are incurred. Depending on the terms of the client contract, revenue is derived from diverse arrangements involving fees for services performed and commissions. The companyCompany earns consulting fees by providing branding, imaging marketing and talent placement services, event management, including, implementation and production management. The company also earns commissions through contract negotiations in talent representation and endorsement contracts. A majority of the company’sCompany’s client contracts are individually negotiated and accordingly, the terms of client engagements and the basesbasis on which the companyCompany earns commission scommissions and fees may vary significantly. For talent representation, the company generally records revenue net of pass-through charges as the company believes the key indicators of the business suggest we generally act as an agent on behalf of our clients. This is recorded when we receive the gross payment. In those businesses where the key indicators suggest the companyCompany acts as principal, the companyCompany records the gross amount billed to the client as revenue and the related costs incurred as operating expenses. This is generally recorded as the services are provided.
Licensing revenue
The Company recognizes revenue from licensing arrangements when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, collectability is reasonably assured and the license has been delivered to the customer. The revenue is recognized over the term of the license agreement with any amounts received upfront being deferred and recognized over the remaining life of the license.
Accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts
Accounts receivable are amounts due on sales, are unsecured and are carried at their estimated collectible amounts. Credit is generally extended on a short-term basis; thus accounts receivable do not bear interest although a finance charge may be applied to such receivables that are more than thirty days past due. Accounts receivable are periodically evaluated for collectability based on past credit history with clients. Provisions for losses on accounts receivable are determined on the basis of loss experience, known and inherent risk in the account balance and current economic conditions.
Stock-based compensation
ASCAccounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" established financial accounting and reporting standards for stock-based employee compensation plans. It defines a fair value based method of accounting for an employee stock option or similar equity instrument. CMG Holdings Group, Inc. accounts for compensation cost for stock option plans and for share based payments to non-employees in accordance with ASC 718. Accordingly, employee share-based payment compensation is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the requisite service period. Additionally, share-based awards to non-employees are expensed over the period in which the related services are rendered at their fair value. The Company accounts for share based payments to non-employees in accordance with ASC 505-50 “Accounting for Equity Instruments Issued to Non-Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services”.
Embedded conversion features
The Company evaluates embedded conversion features within convertible debt and convertible preferred stock under ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” to determine whether the embedded conversion feature should be bifurcated from the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings. If the conversion feature does not require derivative treatment under ASC 815, the instrument is evaluated under ASC 470-20 “Debt with Conversion and Other Options” for consideration of any beneficial conversion feature.

NOTE 1: DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Cash and Cash Equivalents For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the company considers all short-term debt securities purchased with maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are stated at cost, net of accumulated amortization. Amortization is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the respective asset, which is three years. Amortization expense was $74,580 and $298,332 for the years ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.
Long-lived Assets
In accordance with ASC 360-10, which requires that long-lived assets to be held and used be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Due to recurring losses of AudioEye, Inc., the Company evaluated its patents for impairment and determined that future cash flows were insufficient for recoverability of the asset. The Company recognized impairment losses of $0 and $171,855 during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Income Taxes
As a result of the change in tax status resulting from the change in the company’sCompany’s organization as a limited liability company to a corporation, the company is no longer a pass-through entity for US income tax purposes. Income tax expense is based on reported earnings before income taxes. Deferred income taxes reflect the impact of temporary differences between assets and liabilities recognized for financial reporting purposes and such amounts recognized for tax purposes, and are measured by applying enacted tax rates in effect in years in which the differences are expected to reverse.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1: DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Basic loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted loss per share includes the dilutive effects of common stock equivalents on an “as if converted” basis. For the yearsyear ended December 31, 2009 and 2008,2011 potential dilutive securities had an anti-dilutive effect and were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued a standard that established the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) and amended the hierarchy of generally accepted accounting principles (ASC) and amended the hierarchy of generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) such that the ASC became the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S.GAAP. The ASC did not change current U.S. GAAP, but was intended to simplify user access to all authoritative U.S. GAAP by providing all the authoritative literature related to a particular topic in one place. All previously existing accounting standard documents were superseded and all other accounting literature not included in the ASC is considered non-authoritative. New accounting standards issued subsequent to June 30, 2009 are communicated by the FASB throu gh Accounting Standards Updates (ASUs). The Company adopted the ASC on July 1, 2009. This standard did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial condition. However, throughout the notes to the consolidated financial statements references that were previously made to various former authoritative U.S. GAAP pronouncements have been changed to coincide with the appropriate section of the ASC.
The Company does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on our accompanying financial statements.
NOTE 2: GOING CONCERNFair Value Measurements
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASC 820 which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The provisions of ASC 820 were effective January 1, 2008. ASC 820 delays the effective date for nonfinancial assets and liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually), until fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008.
As showndefined in ASC 820, fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the accompanying financial statements,inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable. The Company has incurred net losses for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008. In addition, the Company has an accumulated deficit and a working capital deficit as of December 31, 2009. These conditions raise substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. In response to these conditions, the Company has raised additional capital through the sale of equity securities, through an offering of debt securities or through borrowings from financial institutions or individuals. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 3: NOTE RECEIVABLE AND ASSET ACQUISITION
On March 6, 2009, the Company, through a newly formed wholly owned subsidiary CMGO Capital, Inc., a Nevada corporation, completed a Note Purchase Agreement with Bank of America to purchase the senior secured debt obligations of The Experiential Agency, Inc. The purchase price of the Note Purchase Agreement with Bank of America to purchase the senior secured debt obligations of The Experiential Agency, Inc. was a total of $150,000. CMG also loaned The Experiential Agency, Inc. $100,000 in March 2009 which has been accounted for as part of the purchase price.
On April 1, 2009, CMG Holdings, Inc. foreclosedclassifies fair value balances based on the noteobservability of those inputs. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and completed the acquisition of the assets of The Experiential Agency, Inc. The Experiential Agency, Inc. offers a full degree of solutions, services and consulting expertise comprising of management, creation, and execution of entertainment event for corporate clients and individual clients general service areas of event marketing, interactive marketing, event production, public relations, talent representation, corporate consulting, digital media. The Experiential Agency, Inc. earns consulting fees when it provides general consulting services and generates revenues for services for event marketing and communications assignments. As a result of the acquisition of the assets of Experiential Agency, Inc., the Company is expectedlowest priority to be the premier provider of solutions, servic es and consulting expertise comprising of management, creation, and execution of entertainment event for corporate clients and individual clients general service areas of event marketing, interactive marketing, event production, public relations, talent representation, corporate consulting, digital media and services in those markets. The Company also expects to reduce costs through economies of scale.

CMG HOLDINGS GROUP, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2012 and 2011
NOTE 3: NOTE RECEIVABLE1: DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND ASSET ACQUISITIONSUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) The three levels of the fair value hierarchy defined by ASC 820 are as follows:
Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments such as exchange-traded derivatives, marketable securities and listed equities.
Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies. These models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including quoted forward prices for commodities, time value, volatility factors, and current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has a working capital deficit and has generated recurring net losses. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders and the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity or debt financing to continue and expand operations.
These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
Besides ongoing revenues from continuing operations, the Company may need to raise additional funds to expand operations to the point at which the Company can achieve profitability. CMG HOLDINGS, INC.

The investors also received certain registration rights pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2009.2011. Based upon such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of December 31, 2009,2011, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the identification of a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting which is identified below, which we view as an integral part of our disclosure controls and procedures. This conclusion by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer does not relate to reporting periods after December 31, 2009.2011.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 20092011 based on the framework stated by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Furthermore, due to our financial situation, the Company will be implementing further internal controls as the Company becomes operative so as to fully comply with the standards set by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Our internal control system was designed 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. Because of inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate due to change in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Based on its evaluation as of December 31, 2009,2011, our management concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of December 31, 20092011 due to the identification of a material weakness. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The material weakness relates to the monitoring and review of work performed by our Chief Financial Officer and lack of segregation of duties. In the preparation of financial statements, footnotes and financial data all of our financial reporting is carried out by our Chief Financial Officer, and we do not have an audit committee to monitor or review the work performed. The lack of segregation of duties results from lack of accounting staff with accounting technical expertise necessary for an effect ive system of internal control. In order to mitigate this material weakness to the fullest extent possible, all financial reports are reviewed by the Chief Executive Officer. All unexpected results are investigated. At any time, if it appears that any control can be implemented to continue to mitigate such weaknesses, it is immediately implemented. As soon as our finances allow, we will hire sufficient accounting staff and implement appropriate procedures for monitoring and review of work performed by our Chief Financial Officer.
In performing this assessment, management has identified the following material weaknesses as of December 31, 2012:
| · | There is a lack of segregation of duties necessary for a good system of internal control due to insufficient accounting staff due to the size of the Company | | · | Lack of a formal review process that includes multiple levels of reviews | | · | Employees and management lack the qualifications and training to fulfill their assigned accounting and reporting functions | | · | Inadequate design of controls over significant accounts and processes |
| · | Inadequate documentation of the components of internal control in general | | · | Failure in the operating effectiveness over controls related to valuing and recording equity based payments to employees and non-employees | | · | Failure in the operating effectiveness over controls related to valuing and recording debt instruments including those with conversion options and the related embedded derivative liabilities |
| · | Failure in the operating effectiveness over controls related to recording revenue and expense transactions in the proper period | | · | Failure in the operating effectiveness over controls related to evaluating and recording related party transactions |
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management sManagements report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
The following table sets forth as of April 15, 2010,2013, information with respect to the beneficial ownership of the Company’s Common Stock by (i) each person known by the Company to own beneficially 5% or more of such stock, (ii) each Director of the Company who owns any Common Stock, and (iii) all Directors and Officers as a group, together with their percentage of beneficial holdings of the outstanding shares. The information presented below regarding beneficial ownership of our voting securities has been presented in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and is not necessarily indicative of ownership for any other purpose. Under these rules, a person is deemed to be a "beneficial owner" of a security if that person has or shares the power to vote or direct the voting of the security or the power to dispose or direct the disposition of the security. A person is deemed to own beneficially any security as to which such person has the right to acquire sole or shared voting or investment power within 60 days through the conversion or exercise of any convertible security, warrant, option or other right. More than one person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same securities. The percentage of beneficial ownership by any person as of a particular date is calculated by dividing the number of shares beneficially owned by such person, which includes the number of shares as to which such person has the right to acquire voting or investment power within 60 days, by the sum of the number of shares outstanding as of such date plus the number of shares as to which such person has the right to acquire voting or investment power within 60 days. Consequently, the denominator used for calculating such percentage may be different for each beneficial owner. Except as otherwise indicated below and under applicabl eapplicable community property laws, we believe that the beneficial owners of our common stock listed below have sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares shown.
