CIG Wireless Corp.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

 

Note 1:  Basis of Presentation

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of CIG Wireless Corp. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” and “CIG Wireless”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s September 30, 2011 Annual Report filed with the SEC on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the consolidated financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited consolidated financial statements for the most recent fiscal year end September 30, 2011 as reported on Form 10-K, have been omitted.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CIG Wireless Corp., its subsidiary in which the Company has a controlling interest Communications Infrastructure Group, LLC and its wholly-owned subsidiaries CIG Services, LLC, CIG BTS Towers, LLC, CIG Comp Tower, LLC, CIG DT Holding, LLC, CIG GA Holding, LLC, CIG Properties, LLC, and CIG Towers, LLC. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

 

Losses Allocated to Related Party Investors

 

The Company entered into six Atypical Silent Partnership Agreements with related party limited partnership investors which made loans to the Company for acquisition of tower assets which were segregated on the books by investment group. Profits from these towers were allocated to the related party investors until they obtain designated rates of return of between 8 – 20%. Once the rates of return were obtained by the related party investors, subsequent profits were allocated based upon ownership. Operating expenses and losses from these towers were 100% allocated to the investors until there is a net profit.

 

The losses allocated to these related party investors are reflected in the statements of operations in “losses allocated to related party investors.” The total losses allocated during the period from December 1, 2011 through June 30, 2012, the period from October 1, 2011 through November 30, 2011 and the nine months ended June 30, 2011 were $1,891,653, $612,137 and $2,840,399, respectively.

 

All but one of these related party investors restructured their agreements on June 30, 2012 whereby they exchanged their interests in the Atypical Silent Partnership Agreements for loan agreements and ownership in the Company’s subsidiary Communications Infrastructure Group, LLC (see Note 6).

 

Note 2:  Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, liabilities, and commitments in the normal course of business. The accompanying financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. The Company has a working capital deficit as of June 30, 2012. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has also incurred significant losses since inception. These conditions raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. There is no assurance that management will be successful in raising additional funds. As of the date of this report, management is involved in negotiations with several different financing partners in and outside of the United States of America and reasonably expects positive developments and results within the weeks and months to come.

Note 3:  Acquisitions

 

On October 7, 2011, CIG Wireless acquired all membership interests in CIG Services, LLC, from Communications Infrastructure Group, LLC (“CIG LLC”) for nominal consideration. CIG Services, LLC was formed by CIG LLC on September 23, 2011 as a wholly-owned subsidiary. No allocation of the purchase price table is presented because there were no assets or liabilities as of the acquisition date.

 

On December 5, 2011, CIG Wireless acquired 100% of the membership interest in CIG, LLC from BAC Berlin Atlantic Holding GmbH & Co. KG for 750,000 common shares. Both parties agreed, for the convenience of month end closing procedures, to account for the acquisition as if it occurred on November 30, 2011. The results of operations and cash flows obtained through the use of November 30, 2011, rather than December 5, 2011, are not considered to be materially different.

 

The purchase price for the acquisition of CIG LLC was $75,000 consisting of the 750,000 common shares issued and valued at $0.10 per share which was the previous sales price of the Company’s common stock for cash.

 

The allocation of the purchase price and the estimated fair market values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are shown below.

Note 6:  Long-term Subordinated Obligations to Related Parties, now Convertible

 

Between November 2009 and February 2010, the Company entered into six Atypical Silent Partnership Agreements with related party limited partnership investors which made contributions to the Company for acquisition of tower assets which are segregated on the books by investment group. No separate legal entity was created through these agreements. The investment agreements all have similar terms, conditions, and termination dates as defined in the agreements. Termination dates range from December 31, 2014 through September 30, 2015.  On each such termination date, each respective investor may elect termination of the arrangement and the Company must then make distributions.  Because these are mandatory variable repayment obligations occurring on each termination date, the net obligations to these investors are accounted for as long-term subordinated obligations.  Management fees, origination fees and interest charged to the investors and third-party consulting and other revenue received by the Company not related to the tower ownership or operations are segregated as Company revenue with minimal or no offset by Company overhead expenses.

 

Except for each termination date, the Company has sole discretion on whether to pay any proceeds from operations or tower sales to the investors.

 

The following is a summary of the net profits and liquidation interests of the six investors prior to the June 30, 2012 internal restructuring (described in detail below):

June 30, 2012 Internal Restructuring

 

On June 30, 2012, the Company restructured the ownership of certain of its subsidiaries and communication towers (the “Restructuring”) intended to align the Company’s organization with its strategic plans, including anticipated near-term financing. 

 

Prior to the Restructuring, title to a number of the wireless communications towers was held by CIG LLC.  However, profit participation rights in the towers (the “Profit Participation”) was separately reserved to third party investment funds domiciled in the Republic of Germany: InfraTrust Zwei GmbH & Co. KG, InfraTrust Fünf GmbH & Co. KG,  and BAC Infratrust Premium Neun & Co. KG (collectively, the “Funds”).  The respective Profit Participation rights were previously set forth in three separate Atypical Silent Partnership Agreements with CIG LLC (the “ASPs”). 

 

The Restructuring was required and requested by the manager of the Funds in order to provide a more conventional legal structure for the ownership of the towers by the Company, while maintaining substantially the same economic rights for the Funds as derived from the towers.  Pursuant to the Restructuring, the Funds will now derive their economic rights in the towers through preferred Class A Membership Interests of CIG LLC, as further described below.

 

In 2011, the Funds were dual chartered as limited partnerships in the State of Georgia (collectively, the “Georgia LPs”).  The Georgia LPs are controlled and owned by the Funds, as follows: Compartment IT2, LP, Compartment IT5, LP and Compartment IT9, LP corresponding to InfraTrust ZweiGmbH & Co. KG, Infratrust FünfGmbH & Co. KG and BAC Infratrust Premium Neun & Co. KG, respectively.  

 

The CIG LLC Amended and Restated Operating Agreement, dated June 30, 2012, (the “A&R Operating Agreement”)  provides for three preferred Class A Membership Interests:  Class A-IT2, Class A-IT5 and Class A‑IT9 (collectively, the “Class A Interests”), issued to Compartment IT2, LP, Compartment IT5, LP and Compartment IT9, LP, respectively. 

 

At the closing of the Restructuring, the ASPs were assigned and transferred from the Funds to the corresponding Georgia LPs in connection with the exchange for the Class A Membership Interests.  CIG LLC issued each Georgia LP preferred Class A Membership Interests to replicate the Profit Participation rights previously held through the respective ASPs prior to the Restructuring.  The ASPs terminated upon effectiveness of the exchange for Class A Interests.

 

The CIG LLC A&R Operating Agreement also provides for a class of management membership interests (the “Management Interests”), which were issued to CIG Towers, LLC, a subsidiary of the Company.  CIG LLC will be managed by another subsidiary, CIG Solutions, LLC (“CIG Solutions”), as manager.  Management of CIG LLC remains subject to unanimous consent of the Class A Interests for certain Company actions.  As manager, CIG Solutions will receive a management fee of 1% of the capital contributions made by the holders of the Class A-IT2 Interests and Class A-IT9 Interests plus any related third party loans and a broker fee of 5% of the gross value of new towers attributable to the Class A-IT5 Interests plus any related third party loans.  The capital contributions are defined by the value of the tower assets previously underlying the respective ASPs exchanged for the Class A Interests. 

 

Distributions will be made to Compartment IT2, LP by CIG LLC from: (i) available funds related to the communication towers attributable to the Class A-IT2 Interests; and (ii) available funds related to any and all communication towers subsequently acquired with proceeds from loans derived from collateralization of towers attributable to the Class A-IT2 Interests, in the following order of priority:

 

     1.      20% return in an amount equal to an internal rate of return on the previously contributed capital calculated from February 16, 2010, to the holders of the Class A-IT2 Interests (this 20% return is contingent upon there being net profits generated from the towers); then

 

 

11


 

 

      2.     80% to the holders of the Class A-IT2 Interests and 20% to the holders of the Management Interests.

 

Distributions will be made to Compartment IT5, LP by CIG LLC from: (i) available funds related to the communication towers attributable to the Class A-IT5 Interests; and (ii) available funds related to any and all communication towers subsequently acquired with proceeds from loans derived from collateralization of towers attributable to the Class A-IT5 Interests, in the following order of priority:

 

      1.     20% return on its capital contribution, in an amount equal to an internal rate of return on the previously contributed capital calculated from December 21, 2010 to the holders of the Class A-IT5 Interests (this 20% return is contingent upon there being net profits generated from the towers); then

 

      2.     80% to the holders of the Class A-IT5 Interests and 20% to the holders of the Management Interests.

 

Distributions will be made to Compartment IT9, LP by CIG LLC from: (i) available funds related to the communication towers attributable to the Class A-IT9 Interests; and (ii) available funds related to any and all communication towers subsequently acquired with proceeds from loans derived from collateralization of towers attributable to the Class A-IT9 Interests, in the following order of priority:

 

      1.     10% return on its capital contribution, in an amount equal to an internal rate of return on the previously contributed capital calculated from February 26, 2010 to the holders of the Class A-IT9 Interests (this 10% return is contingent upon there being net profits generated from the towers); then

 

      2.     80% to the holders of the Class A-IT9 Interests and 20% to the holders of the Management Interests.

 

Distributions will be made to the holder of the Management Interests as per above and also from all other funds available for distribution which are: (i) not related to the respective communication towers attributable to the Class A Interests; and (ii) not related to any and all communication towers subsequently acquired with proceeds from loans derived from collateralization of the towers attributable to Class A Interests.  Funds available for distribution are determined by reference to revenues less expenses, subject to customary accounting adjustments and reserves.

 

In the event of a liquidation of CIG LLC, the holders of each of the Class A Interests will receive the net proceeds from the liquidation of the corresponding communication towers and related assets contributed by the respective Georgia LPs to CIG LLC.

 

At the discretion of the Funds’ manager, the Class A Interests are convertible into common shares, at any time prior to the first anniversary of the date the Common Stock becomes eligible for electronic book-entry delivery and settlement depository services by the Depository Trust Company (“DTC Eligibility”).  The Class A Interests will convert into such number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Class A Member’s capital account divided by a conversion price per share calculated by reference to the dollar value which is equal to 25% less than the prior twenty trading days’ volume weighted average price of the Common Stock.  After the first anniversary date of DTC Eligibility, the Class A Interests remain convertible into Common Stock without discount upon termination or liquidation of the respective Georgia LP.  The conversion rights of the holders of the Class A Interests may only be exercised in full.  The conversion price is subject to customary anti-dilution protections.   

 

The shares of Common Stock issued by the Company upon conversion of the Class A Interests will be subject to a market stand-down provision, in which the converted shares may not be sold or traded during the 12 months following issuance.  On December 31, 2014 for the Class A-IT2 Interests and Class A-IT5 Interests and on March 31, 2015 for the Class A-IT9 Interests and upon termination (liquidation) of the Class A interest by the Funds, the conversion of the relevant Class A Interests into Common Stock will be effectuated at a conversion price equal to the prior twenty trading days’ volume weighted average price of the Common Stock.  The Class A Interests may not convert into the number of shares of Common Stock that exceed the number of authorized shares of Common Stock, less the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, less the number of shares of Common Stock issuable under all other outstanding convertible instruments of the Company, and also less any other obligations of the Company to issue shares of Common Stock.

Note 7:  Related Party Transactions

 

The Company shares services with related parties and is allocated a proportionate share of the associated expenses and overhead.  During the period from December 1, 2011 through June 30, 2012, the period from October 1, 2011 through November 30, 2011 and the nine months ended June 30, 2011, total allocated expenses were approximately $430,288, $44,839 and $1,109,676, respectively.

Some of the related party payables bear interest at rates ranging from 5.5% to 12.1% per annum.

 

The Company also assists certain investment partners who are related parties in the identification and acquisition of tower assets including towers and tower sites.  The Company locates and purchases (or builds) the tower assets and later sells the towers to the related parties at agreed-upon terms upon ultimate funding of the related parties.  In connection with the purchase of tower assets to be sold to related parties, the Company charges origination fees of 5% of the purchase price of the tower assets payable upon completion and funding of the transaction by the related party.  The Company also charges interest to the related parties for the period the identified assets are owned and held by the Company. During the period from December 1, 2011 through June 30, 2012, the period from October 1, 2011 through November 30, 2011 and the nine months ended June 30, 2011, origination fees revenue totaled $19,800, zero and $247,904, respectively. Related party interest income totaled $128,376 during the nine months ended June 30, 2011. There was no related party interest income during the nine months ended June 30, 2012.

 

During the nine months ended June 30, 2012, the Company sold 1 tower to an affiliate, InfraTrust Acht GmbH & Co. KG (IT8), for cash proceeds of $344,246 resulting in a gain on the sale of $91,871. The gain was allocated to the investors through the losses allocated to related party creditors in the statement of operations.

 

During the nine months ended June 30, 2011, the Company sold 3 towers to an affiliate, InfraTrust Acht GmbH & Co. KG (IT8), for cash proceeds of $4,102,083 resulting in a gain on the sale of $507,077. The gain was allocated to the investors through netting against the overall operating losses allocated to the investors.

Management fees paid in cash from IT8 and IT6 during the period from December 1, 2011 through June 30, 2012 totaled $24,000.

 

The Company receives management fees from its investment partners based upon the annual contributions made by each partner and from affiliated companies for managing the telecommunication towers. Management fees from investment partners are accounted for against the long-term subordinated obligations owed to these investment partners and totaled $59,216, $16,567 and $72,012 during the period from December 1, 2011 through June 30, 2012, the period from October 1, 2011 through November 30, 2011 and the nine months ended June 30, 2011, respectively.

Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement

                

On June 29, 2012, Communications Infrastructure Group, LLC (referred to herein as the “Purchaser”), a subsidiary of the Company, determined not to proceed with the Asset Purchase Agreement by and between the Purchaser and Towers of Texas, Ltd. (referred to herein as the “Seller”), dated as of March 15, 2012, pursuant to which the Seller had agreed to sell to the Purchaser certain communications towers and related assets and rights. This Asset Purchase Agreement had been amended by the parties on May 4, 2012 (such agreement, as amended, is referred to herein as the “Asset Purchase Agreement”).  Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Purchaser was to have acquired certain communications towers, and certain ground leases upon which the aforementioned towers are situated.  As a result of the determination not to proceed with the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Purchaser has relinquished its non-refundable deposit of $100,000 which it had paid to the Seller.  The Company has determined not to proceed with the acquisitions because the Company was not able to obtain financing for the acquisitions on reasonable terms and conditions.  The Company is seeking

 

19


 

alternative financing solutions and intends to pursue other tower acquisition opportunities.   The Company anticipates re-initiating the Towers of Texas, Ltd. transaction as soon as reasonably feasible.

 

Corporate Restructuring

 

On June 30, 2012, the Company restructured the ownership of certain of its subsidiaries and communication towers (the “Restructuring”) intended to align the Company’s organization with its strategic plans, including anticipated near-term financing. 

 

Prior to the Restructuring, title to a number of the wireless communications towers was held by Communications Infrastructure Group, LLC (“CIG LLC”), a subsidiary of the Company.  However, profit participation rights in the towers (the “Profit Participation”) was separately reserved to third party investment funds domiciled in the Republic of Germany: InfraTrust Zwei GmbH & Co. KG, InfraTrust Fünf GmbH & Co. KG,  and BAC Infratrust Premium Neun & Co. KG (collectively, the “Funds”).  The respective Profit Participation rights were previously set forth in three separate Atypical Silent Partnership Agreements with CIG LLC (the “ASPs”). 

 

The Restructuring was required and requested by the manager of the Funds in order to provide a more conventional legal structure for the ownership of the towers by the Company, while maintaining substantially the same economic rights for the Funds as derived from the towers.  Pursuant to the Restructuring, the Funds will now derive their economic rights in the towers through preferred Class A Membership Interests of CIG LLC, as further described below.

 

In 2011, the Funds were dual chartered as limited partnerships in the State of Georgia (collectively, the “Georgia LPs”).  The Georgia LPs are controlled and owned by the Funds, as follows: Compartment IT2, LP, Compartment IT5, LP and Compartment IT9, LP corresponding to InfraTrust ZweiGmbH & Co. KG, Infratrust FünfGmbH & Co. KG and BAC Infratrust Premium Neun & Co. KG, respectively.  

 

The CIG LLC Amended and Restated Operating Agreement, dated June 30, 2012, (the “A&R Operating Agreement”)  provides for three preferred Class A Membership Interests:  Class A-IT2, Class A-IT5 and Class A‑IT9 (collectively, the “Class A Interests”), issued to Compartment IT2, LP, Compartment IT5, LP and Compartment IT9, LP, respectively. 

 

At the closing of the Restructuring, the ASPs were assigned and transferred from the Funds to the corresponding Georgia LPs in connection with the exchange for the Class A Membership Interests.  CIG LLC issued each Georgia LP preferred Class A Membership Interests to replicate the Profit Participation rights previously held through the respective ASPs prior to the Restructuring.  The ASPs terminated upon effectiveness of the exchange for Class A Interests.

 

The CIG LLC A&R Operating Agreement also provides for a class of management membership interests (the “Management Interests”), which were issued to CIG Towers, LLC, a subsidiary of the Company.  CIG LLC will be managed by another subsidiary, CIG Solutions, LLC (“CIG Solutions”), as manager.  Management of CIG LLC remains subject to unanimous consent of the Class A Interests for certain Company actions.  As manager, CIG Solutions will receive a management fee of 1% of the capital contributions made by the holders of the Class A-IT2 Interests and Class A-IT9 Interests plus any related third party loans and a broker fee of 5% of the gross value of new towers attributable to the Class A-IT5 Interests plus any related third party loans.  The capital contributions are defined by the value of the tower assets previously underlying the respective ASPs exchanged for the Class A Interests. 

 

Distributions will be made to Compartment IT2, LP by CIG LLC from: (i) available funds related to the communication towers attributable to the Class A-IT2 Interests; and (ii) available funds related to any and all communication towers subsequently acquired with proceeds from loans derived from collateralization of towers attributable to the Class A-IT2 Interests, in the following order of priority:

 

     1.      20% return in an amount equal to an internal rate of return on the previously contributed capital calculated from February 16, 2010, to the holders of the Class A-IT2 Interests; then

 

     2.      80% to the holders of the Class A-IT2 Interests and 20% to the holders of the Management Interests.

 

Distributions will be made to Compartment IT5, LP by CIG LLC from: (i) available funds related to the communication towers attributable to the Class A-IT5 Interests; and (ii) available funds related to any and all communication towers subsequently acquired with proceeds from loans derived from collateralization of towers attributable to the Class A-IT5 Interests, in the following order of priority:

 

     1.      20% return on its capital contribution, in an amount equal to an internal rate of return on the previously contributed capital calculated from December 21, 2010 to the holders of the Class A-IT5 Interests; then

Distributions will be made to the holder of the Management Interests as per above and also from all other funds available for distribution which are: (i) not related to the respective communication towers attributable to the Class A Interests; and (ii) not related to any and all communication towers subsequently acquired with proceeds from loans derived from collateralization of the towers attributable to Class A Interests.  Funds available for distribution are determined by reference to revenues less expenses, subject to customary accounting adjustments and reserves.

 

In the event of a liquidation of CIG LLC, the holders of each of the Class A Interests will receive the net proceeds from the liquidation of the corresponding communication towers and related assets contributed by the respective Georgia LPs to CIG LLC.

 

At the discretion of the Funds’ manager, the Class A Interests are convertible into shares of Company common stock, par value $.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at any time prior to the first anniversary of the date the Common Stock becomes eligible for electronic book-entry delivery and settlement depository services by the Depository Trust Company (“DTC Eligibility”).  The Class A Interests will convert into such number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Class A Member’s capital account divided by a conversion price per share calculated by reference to the dollar value which is equal to 25% less than the prior twenty trading days’ volume weighted average price of the Common Stock.  After the first anniversary date of DTC Eligibility, the Class A Interests remain convertible into Common Stock without discount upon termination or liquidation of the respective Georgia LP.  The conversion rights of the holders of the Class A Interests may only be exercised in full.  The conversion price is subject to customary anti-dilution protections.   

 

The shares of Common Stock issued by the Company upon conversion of the Class A Interests will be subject to a market stand-down provision, in which the converted shares may not be sold or traded during the 12 months following issuance.  On December 31, 2014 for the Class A-IT2 Interests and Class A-IT5 Interests and on March 31, 2015 for the Class A-IT9 Interests and upon termination (liquidation) of the Class A interest by the Funds, the conversion of the relevant Class A Interests into Common Stock will be effectuated at a conversion price equal to the prior twenty trading days’ volume weighted average price of the Common Stock.  The Class A Interests may not convert into the number of shares of Common Stock that exceed the number of authorized shares of Common Stock, less the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, less the number of shares of Common Stock issuable under all other outstanding convertible instruments of the Company, and also less any other obligations of the Company to issue shares of Common Stock.

 

Paul McGinn Employment Agreement

 

On July 25, 2012, the Company entered into an employment agreement (the “Employment Agreement”) with Mr. Paul McGinn, the Company’s President, Chief Executive Officer and a Member of the Company’s Board of Directors.

measurable, and beneficial to the overall strategy of the Company.  All Variable Component goals will be set at the beginning of each year between Mr. McGinn and the Board.  Performance with respect to the Variable Component shall be measured at the end of the year.  The Variable Component with respect to the initial year of Mr. McGinn’s services will be set between Mr. McGinn and the Board as soon as reasonably possible after the date of signing the Employment Agreement.

Results of operations

 

Accounting Survivor

 

The CI Group is the accounting survivor of the Company’s acquisition of the CI Group.  As a result, all comparative information that follows refers to the results of operations for the CI Group.

 

Background

 

The CI Group (Communications Infrastructure Group, LLC) is a limited liability company and was formed on July 24, 2009 under the Delaware Limited Liability Act for the purpose of investing in telecommunication towers throughout the United States of America and subsequently leasing space on the towers to major wireless and broadband carriers.  The CI Group’s offices are located in Atlanta, Georgia.

 

About The CI Group

 

The CI Group rents antenna and other equipment space on its towers on the basis of long term contracts with wireless carriers, governmental and public entities and utilities.  The towers are either acquired on the open market or through the successful awarding to the CI Group of carrier tower projects.

 

The CI Group currently owns 46 wireless communications towers that are online and in commercial service with one or more antenna tenants.  The CI Group also owns two additional wireless communications towers that are currently in various phases of construction and which are expected to be completed with on-line antenna tenants prior to the end of the third calendar quarter 2012.

 

The legal and economic interests in six of the 46 wireless communications towers that are online and in commercial service are legally and beneficially owned solely by the CI Group.  The legal and economic interests in the two wireless towers under construction are also legally and beneficially owned solely by the CI Group.

 

The economic interests in the remaining 40 wireless communications towers owned by CI Group, although legally owned by CI Group, are currently subject in their entirety to the rights of certain third party investment funds (collectively, the “Compartment LPs”).  The Compartment LPs participation rights in the Company extend only to the revenues derived specifically from the 40 towers, as well as the proceeds upon any sale or disposition of the 40 towers.  The Compartment

 

22


 

LPs do not participate in any other equity or revenues of the Company and their participation interests in the towers are subordinated to creditors of the Company.  The Compartment LPs with interests in the 40 CI Group towers are not shareholders of the Company.

 

In addition to the aggregate of 48 wireless communications towers legally owned by CI Group, the CI Group also manages 32 additional towers for third parties. 

 
In total, the CI Group currently manages 80 wireless communications towers.

 
The CI Group manages, develops, and markets rooftop space in New York City. The CI Group believes that it is in a strong position to develop this business line through aggressive marketing and pricing.  The majority of CI Group’s towers can accommodate more than one tenant which can facilitate supplemental revenue streams without incurring additional capital costs. 

 
The CI Group plans to move into the business of Distributed Antenna Systems (“DAS”) in 2012. The CI Group DAS development program is currently underway in conjunction with a major property owner in New York. 

 
Two new tower bids were won during the month of April 2012.  Both of the bids were for towers to be constructed for a major regional carrier in the Georgia market.

 
The tower business is not seasonal. However, the availability of towers for acquisition on the market varies greatly.

 

The CI Group, like all of its competitors, is bound to the tower build plans of the various carriers, which are subject to numerous variables outside control of the CI Group, including the general economy, carrier cash flow, regulatory issues, and consolidation of the wireless industry.  The CI Group deploys its working capital for the acquisition of third party towers on the open market or for the construction costs of BTS. Working capital is also used for marketing purposes.

 

The CI Group is reliant, to a large extent, on the wireless carriers build and search ring development plans. Possible consolidation in the industry plays a significant role in carrier builds and lease ups. Government agencies (such as Homeland Security, local police and fire departments, and port authorities) in addition to utilities, provide potential supplementary tower facilities’ leasing income.

 

Steel is the major raw material used in the construction of the towers. The CI Group uses leading contractors to carry out the actual building of the towers.

 

Tower Management Operations

 

The CI Group manages, develops, owns, leases and operates cell phone towers and other wireless infrastructure. CIG Group has entered into several management agreements (“Management Agreement”) with various parties owning (i) cell phone or wireless transmission towers (the “Tower Owners”); or (ii) the economic interests of cell phone or wireless transmission towers (the “Tower Interest Holders” and referred to collectively herein with the Tower Owners as the “Tower Proprietors”).  During the respective term of each Management Agreement, CIG Group, as manager, shall perform functions necessary to maintain, market, operate, manage and administer the tower sites of the Tower Proprietors. Each Tower Proprietor shall pay a base management fee to CIG Group.  The base management fees applicable to each Tower Proprietor may vary significantly depending on the specific terms and conditions negotiated with each Tower Proprietor.  The Tower base management fees are expected to be paid in quarterly installments.  CIG Group may also in certain circumstances be eligible to receive ancillary compensation in consideration for procuring new tenants on tower sites, whereby CIG Group would receive a small percentage of the aggregate net rent for the initial term of each such new lease.

During the three month period ended June 30, 2012, the CI Group had total operating expenses of $2,591,571, which was an increase from total operating expenses of $1,297,512 for the three month period ended June 30, 2011.  Operating expenses for the three month period ended June 30, 2012 included general and administrative expenses of $1,776,179, shared services with related parties of $85,426, site rental of $283,742, depreciation and accretion of $247,167 and other costs of $199,057.  Operating expenses for the three month period ended June 30, 2011 included general and administrative expenses of $796,817, shared services with related parties of $450,000, site rental of $166,777, depreciation and accretion of $216,333, other costs of $124,857 and gains on the sale of assets to related party investors of $457,272.

 

During the three month period ended June 30, 2012, the CI Group had a total loss from operations of $2,006,191, which represented an increase in losses from the three months ended June 30, 2011, during which time CI Group had a total loss from operations of $718,640.

 

During the three month period ended June 30, 2012, the CI Group had total other income of $308,287, which included losses allocated to related party investors of $547,109, interest expenses to related parties of $265,817 and a gain on foreign currency exchange of $26,995.  Total other income decreased from the three month period ended June 30, 2011, during which the CI Group had total other income of $1,055,056, which included losses allocated to related party investors of $988,537 and interest income from related parties of $66,519.

 

The CI Group’s net loss for the three month period ended June 30, 2012 was $1,697,904, which compares to the net income of $336,416 for the three month period ended June 30, 2011.

 

The Company has entered into six Atypical Silent Partnership Agreements with related party limited partnership investors which made loans to the Company for acquisition of tower assets which are segregated on the books by investment group. Profits from these towers are allocated to these investors after a designated internal rate of return of between 8 – 20%.  Operating expenses and losses from these towers are 100% allocated to the investors until there is a net profit.

   

The losses allocated to these related party investors are reflected in the statements of operations in “losses allocated to related party investors.” The total losses allocated during the three month periods ended June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2011 were $547,109 and $988,537, respectively.

 

Between November 2009 and February 2010, the Company entered into six Atypical Silent Partnership Agreements with related party limited partnership investors which made contributions to the Company for acquisition of tower assets which are segregated on the books by investment group. No separate legal entity was created through these agreements. The investment agreements all have similar terms, conditions, and termination dates as defined in the agreements. Termination dates range from December 31, 2014 through September 30, 2015.  On each such termination date, each respective investor may elect termination of the arrangement and the Company may then either liquidate the towers for cash payments after their share of any liabilities, distribute the net tower assets in kind or distribute stock in an entity which holds the tower assets.  Because these are mandatory variable repayment obligations occurring on each termination date, the net obligations to these investors are accounted for as long-term subordinated obligations.  Management fees, origination fees and interest charged to the investors and third-party consulting and other revenue received by the Company not related to the tower ownership or operations are segregated as Company revenue with minimal or no offset by Company overhead expenses.

Series B 6% 2012 Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock 
 

Subsequent to the period covered by this Report, on July 25, 2012, the Board of Directors approved a new class of preferred Stock to be designated from authorized Company Preferred Stock with the following attributes (the “Preferred Stock”):  The Preferred Stock shall be convertible to Common Stock at a conversion price of $3.00 per share (the “Conversion Price”).  The Preferred Stock shall have a dividend payable at the rate of six percent (6%) per annum, payablebiannually within twenty (20) Business Days after each of December 31 and June 30 of each year, and for such shorter period at the earlier of Conversion or Redemption, in preference to any declaration or payment of dividends on Common Stock.  The dividend shall be payable by the Company in cash.  For any other dividends or similar distributions, the holders of Preferred Stock shall participate with Common Stock on an as-converted to Common Stock basis.  The Preferred Stock may be redeemed at the sole discretion of the Company at any time after the third anniversary of the date of issuance (the “Threshold Period”) if the Preferred Stock has not been converted to Common Stock as of such date.  The Preferred Stock

25


 

shall not be mandatorily redeemable and will not be redeemable by the holder.  The Preferred Stock automatically converts into Common Stock at the then-applicable Conversion Price upon the closing of an underwritten public offering of shares of Company Common Stock for a total gross offering value of not less than $40 million.  No further shares of Preferred Stock will be issued after the date of disclosure regarding such underwritten offering.  Up to 1,700,000 shares of the Preferred Stock are authorized for issuance by the Company.  As of the date of filing of this Report, no shares of Preferred Stock have been issued.


In the event of any liquidation or winding up of the Company, along with any other rights, the Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive in preference to the holders of Common Stock and the preferred stock ranked junior to the Preferred Stock, an amount per share equal to the face value of the Preferred Stock plus any and all accrued dividends. 
If the available assets to be distributed in any such event are insufficient to permit payment to the holders of Preferred Stock of their Preferred Stock preferential amount, such assets shall be distributed ratably among the holders of Preferred Stock in proportion to the amount of Preferred Stock held by each such holder.  After the payment of the Preferred Stock preferential amount to the holders of the Preferred Stock, the remaining assets or property distributable upon such liquidation shall be divided among the holders of Preferred Stock, and Common Stock on an as-converted pro rata basis.  All liquidation preferences are subject to subordination to all other creditors of the Company. 
 
Proceeds from the Preferred Stock will be used by the Company for working capital and general corporate purposes, with possible deployment for acquisition of additional towers or construction of new towers. 

 All Preferred Stock will vote together with Common Stock except with respect to any matters pertaining only to the Preferred Stock as to which the Preferred Stock will vote as a separate class.  The Preferred Stock will be subordinate to any indebtedness of the Company, including any senior credit facility.  For purposes of obtaining further financing for the operations, growth and development of the Company, the Company shall be permitted to: (i) encumber its assets for the purpose of obtaining financing from a bank or other asset-based lender; (ii) to issue one or more additional series of Preferred Stock; and (iii) cause the Company to offer and issue additional shares of Common Stock, warrants, options or other securities at any time; and (iv) in each case of the foregoing, grant such rights, preferences, terms and conditions within the respective agreements representing all such matters responsive to facts and circumstances pertaining to the Company, as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

The Company maintains "disclosure controls and procedures," as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company conducted an evaluation (the "Evaluation"), under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures ("Disclosure Controls") as of the end of the period covered by this report pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act. Based on this Evaluation, the Company’s CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s Disclosure Controls were not effective because of the identification of a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting which is identified below, which the Company views as an integral part of its disclosure controls and procedures.

 

The material weakness relates to the monitoring and review of work performed by the Company’s limited accounting staff in the preparation of financial statements, footnotes and financial data provided to the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm in connection with the annual audit and quarterly reports.  More specifically, the material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is due to the fact that:

 

 

-

The Company lacks proper segregation of duties. The Company believes that the lack of proper segregation of duties is due to the Company’s limited resources.

 

 

-

The Company does not have a comprehensive and formalized accounting and procedures manual.

 

The Company is currently taking the following actions to improve controls and procedures:

 

-          The Company is currently in the process of hiring supplemental support staff to the accounting team; and
 

-          The Company has acquired new accounting software and is currently in the process of implementation.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) during the quarter ended June 30, 2012 that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
