ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
 
HISTORY
 
The Company was incorporated in Nevada on September 2004 under the name “Global Electronic Recovery Corp.” In February 2008, we changed our name to “Marley Coffee Inc.” when we merged our then newly-formed subsidiary, “Marley Coffee Inc.” into the Company. In July 2009, we changed our name to “Jammin Java Corp.” when we merged our newly-formed subsidiary, Jammin Java Corp., into our Company. Our common stock is quoted on the OTCQB maintained by the OTC Market (“OTCQB”), under the symbol “JAMN.”

CURRENT BUSINESS OPERATIONS
 
In July 2009, we decided to pursue the business of providing premium roasted coffee on a wholesale level to the service, hospitality, office coffee service and big box store market. We intended to gain a market share of the category by capitalizing on the global recognition of the “Marley” name.  Since then, the Company has expanded and developed into a provider of specialty coffee for a variety of business channels.

We believe the key to our growth is a multichannel distribution and sales strategy. Since August 2011, we have been introducing a wide variety of coffee products through multiple distribution channels using the Marley Coffee brand name. The main channels of revenue for the Company are now and are expected to continue to be grocery retail, online retail, office coffee services (OCS), foodservice, green bean coffee sales and vending and automated retailing.

In order to market our products in these channels, we have developed a variety of coffee products in varying formats.  The Company offers an entire line of coffee in whole bean and ground form with varying sizes including 2.5 ounce (oz), 8oz, 12oz and 2 pound (lbs) sizes.  The Company also offers a “single serve” solution with its compostable Single-Serve Pods for Bunn®  and other pod-based home and office brewers.  The Company recently launched its Marley Coffee Real Cup; compatible cartridges, for use in most models of Keurig® 's K-Cup brewing system.

The Company is also working to provide vending solutions through various partnerships and to sell coffee through rolling BikeCaffes, which are each described in greater detail below under “Products and Revenue Channels”.

License Agreement with Fifty-Six Hope Road

On September 13, 2012, the Company entered into a fifteen (15) year license agreement (renewable for two additional fifteen (15) year terms thereafter in the option of the Company) with an effective date of August 7, 2012 with Fifty-Six Hope Road Music Limited, a Bahamas international business company (“Fifty-Six Hope Road” and the “FSHR License Agreement”). Rohan Marley, our Chairman, owns an interest in and serves as a director of Fifty-Six Hope Road. Pursuant to the FSHR License Agreement, Fifty-Six Hope Road granted the Company a worldwide, exclusive, non-transferable license to utilize the “Marley Coffee” trademarks (the “Trademarks”) in connection with (i) the manufacturing, advertising, promotion, sale, offering for sale and distribution of coffee in all its forms and derivations, regardless of portions, sizes or packaging (the “Exclusive Licensed Products”) and (ii) coffee roasting services, coffee production services, and coffee sales, supply, distribution and support services, provided that the Company may not open retail coffee houses utilizing the Trademarks. Fifty-Six Hope Road owns and controls the intellectual property rights in and to the late reggae performer, Robert Nesta Marley, professionally known as Bob Marley, including the Trademarks. In addition, Fifty-Six Hope Road granted the Company the right to use the Trademarks on advertising and promotional materials that pertain solely to the sale of coffee cups, coffee mugs, coffee glasses, saucers, milk steamers, machines for brewing coffee, espresso and/or cappuccino, grinders, water treatment products, tea products, chocolate products, and ready-to-use (instant) coffee products (the “Non-Exclusive Licensed Products”, and together with the Exclusive Licensed Products, the “Licensed Products”). Licensed Products may be sold by the Company pursuant to the FSHR License Agreement through all channels of distribution, provided that, subject to certain exceptions, the Company cannot sell the Licensed Products by direct marketing methods (other than the Company’s website), including television, infomercials or direct mail without the prior written consent of Fifty-Six Hope Road. Additionally, FSHR has the right to approve all Licensed Products, all advertisements in connection therewith and all product designs and packaging.  The agreement also provides that FSHR shall own all rights to any domain names (including marleycoffee.com), incorporating the Trademarks.

In consideration for the foregoing licenses, the Company agreed to pay royalties to Fifty-Six Hope Road in an amount equal to 3% of the net sales of all Licensed Products on a quarterly basis. In addition, such royalty payments are to be deferred during the first 20 months of the term of the FSHR License Agreement, and such deferred payments shall be paid on a quarterly-basis thereafter until paid in full.  At January 31, 2013, $30,073 has been accrued for such royalty fees.

The FSHR License Agreement superseded and replaced the trademark license agreement dated March 31, 2010, as amended on August 5, 2011, between the Company and Marley Coffee, LLC (“MCL”), pursuant to which MCL granted the Company an exclusive, terminable sub-license to use the Trademarks (the “MCL License Agreement”). Previously, in connection with the MCL License Agreement, Fifty-Six Hope Road had granted a worldwide, exclusive, terminable oral license to MCL to utilize the Trademarks and further granted the right for MCL to grant to the Company an exclusive, terminable sub-license to use the Trademarks. As part of the consideration provided by the Company to MCL pursuant to the terms of the MCL License Agreement, effective March 31, 2010, the Company agreed to issue to MCL 10,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company as follows: 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock upon execution of such Agreement, and an additional 1,000,000 shares of common stock on each anniversary of the execution of the Trademark License Agreement for the following nine years, through March 31, 2019. As of December 2012, the Company had issued a total of 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to MCL.

In connection with the execution of the FSHR License Agreement, the Company and MCL entered into a letter agreement dated as of September 13, 2012 (the “MCL Termination Agreement”) terminating the MCL License Agreement. Pursuant to the MCL Termination Agreement; MCL waived the 30-day notice requirement for termination thereunder. The MCL Termination Agreement stated that all of the Company’s obligations under the MCL Trademarks License Agreement were terminated except that the Company remained obligated to: (i) issue to MCL the 1 million shares of its common stock which were due to MCL on the March 31, 2012 anniversary of the MCL License Agreement, which shares have not been issued to date, and (ii) repay the remaining outstanding debt obligation $19,715 in monthly installments with the final installment to be paid in February 2013, which has not been paid to date.  Subsequent to the date of the MCL Termination Agreement, MCL verbally agreed to forego and release the Company from its obligation to issue the 1 million additional shares.

Sales and Marketing Agreement With National Coffee Service & Vending

On April 25, 2011, the Company entered into an Exclusive Sales and Marketing Agreement (the “NCSV Agreement”) with National Coffee Service & Vending (“NCSV”). Pursuant to the NCSV Agreement, we agreed to appoint NCSV as our exclusive agent and distributor of “Jammin Java Coffee” brand roasted coffee within the U.S. (the “Products”) in the office coffee vending, office products, water, and other industries featuring a “break room,” and divisions and offshoots thereof. Pursuant to the NCSV Agreement, we share net profits generated by this agreement with NCSV on a 60/40 basis (with 60% of such net profits being provided to the Company).

Pursuant to the NCSV Agreement, NCSV is responsible for marketing and distributing Products and we agreed to refer all inquiries for purchase of the Products to NCSV (subject to small quantities of Products being referred to separate sub-agents). We also agreed not to compete with NCSV for sales and to refer to NCSV any sales relating to the Products and segments covered by the NCSV Agreement.

The NCSV Agreement remains in effect until April 25, 2014, and automatically renews for additional two year periods thereafter on a rolling basis, unless terminated by either party at least 30 days prior to the end of such applicable renewal term. The NCSV Agreement can be terminated in the event of a breach of the NCSV Agreement (by the non-breaching party) or if the terminating party pays the non-terminating party a lump sum equal to the estimated net profit which would have been due to the non-terminating party if the NCSV Agreement had remained in effect for an additional 24 months from the termination date of the NCSV Agreement (based on the prior 12 months’ net profit).

Roasting Agreements

The Company primarily receives its coffee from two main suppliers; Canterbury Coffee Corporation (“Canterbury”) and European Roasterie, Inc. The Company generally provides these suppliers with desired taste profiles for various Company products, as well as related packaging and marketing materials, and the suppliers are generally responsible for sourcing and supplying the roasted beans for those products in quantities the Company orders from time to time.

In April 2010, we entered into a Supply and Toll Agreement (as amended, the “Supply Agreement”) with Canterbury, whereby Canterbury agreed to produce coffee products for the Company. Effective as of January 1, 2012, we entered into a Roasting and Distribution Agreement (the “Roasting Agreement”) with Canterbury which replaces the Supply Agreement and establishes the terms under which Canterbury will supply certain of the Company’s current coffee product offerings.

The Roasting Agreement has a three year term ending on January 1, 2015, subject to automatic one year extensions thereafter and is terminable by either party on 30 days’ notice. Pursuant to the Roasting Agreement, we provide Canterbury with pre-made bags bearing our logo and the Trademarks licensed through the License Agreement. Canterbury obtains the coffee beans and other ingredients, roasts, and prepares the coffee beans and packages our products in the bags we provide. Under the Roasting Agreement, we are responsible for carrying out sales and marketing for our products, provided that Canterbury pays the actual shipping costs to our licensed distributors and customers and receives the gross proceeds from the sale of our products, and we receive the net difference between the total cost of production and shipping of our products and the amount that Canterbury receives from the sale of such products to our distributors and customers. The prices set forth in the Roasting Agreement are subject to change based on prevailing market prices, with 30 days’ written notice. We bear all of the cost of bad debts or uncollectable accounts. Additionally pursuant to the Roasting Agreement, we agreed to grant Canterbury a non-exclusive, non-transferable, limited sublicense for the distribution of our coffee products in the grocery retail sector (mass, club, grocery and drug market segments) in Canada.  Finally, we granted Canterbury a right of first refusal to distribute our products to any distribution channels other than the grocery retail sector, which may arise during the term of the agreement.

We also operate with European Roasterie under an oral contract with substantially similar terms to those of the Roasting Agreement with Canterbury.  The Company provides European Roasterie with its desired taste profiles for various Company products, as well as related packaging and marketing materials, and European Roasterie is responsible for sourcing and supplying the roasted beans for those products in quantities the Company orders from time to time. We are responsible for carrying out sales and marketing for our products.  European Roasterie handles shipping to our distributors and customers and receives the gross proceeds from the sale of our products, and we receive the net difference between the total cost of production and shipping of our products and the amount that European Roasterie receives from the sale of such products to our distributors and customers. Pricing is subject to change based on prevailing market prices, with 30 days’ written notice. We bear all of the cost of bad debts or uncollectable accounts.

Products and Revenue Channels

The Company’s objective is to position Marley Coffee as the premiere brand across all of the distribution channels for which we license the use of the “Marley” name.

We believe the key to our growth is a multichannel distribution and sales strategy. Since August 2011, we have been introducing a wide variety of coffee products through multiple distribution channels using the Marley Coffee brand name. The main channels of revenue for the Company are now and are expected to continue to be United States and international grocery retail, online retail, office coffee services (OCS), foodservice, vending and automated retailing. Within these channels, we have transitioned from a company that previously only provided 12 oz. whole bean bags of coffee to a company providing a diverse mix of products. Today, the Company offers Marley Coffee Organic Ground and Marley Coffee Jamaica Blue Mountain® Ground coffees; compostable Single-Serve Pods for Bunn®  and other pod-based home and office brewers; Marley Coffee RealCup™; compatible cartridges for use in most models of Keurig® 's popular K-Cup brewing system; and 2.5 oz. fractional (frac) packs and 2 lbs bags mainly used for food service.

Geographically, we initially focused on retail grocery sales and marketing on the West Coast and Southwest portions of the United States and Western Canada. During the past year we have expanded our distributor relationships nationally in the United States. We expect our ongoing discussions with retailers will enable us to place our products in more chains throughout the year and we continue to seek to expand our product placement with grocery retailers and distributors throughout the United States and internationally.
 
Additionally, during the year ended January 31, 2013, we added two additional revenue channels: Marley Coffee branded vending solutions and Marley Coffee branded Bike Cafés.
 
Branded Vending & Foodservice. AVT, Inc. (“AVT”) is a leading developer of vending and self-service retail equipment, have created Marley Coffee branded coffee self-automated vending machines designed to target college campuses, traditional retail locations, high-density traffic areas such as theaters and hotels and traditional foodservice vendors.
  
Marley Coffee BikeCaffe Mobile Franchise Concept. Marley Coffee branded BikeCaffe Coffee Bike, found in select cities in the U.S. and Europe, are a new approach to serving coffee to customers. These three-wheeled, geared bikes are environmentally-friendly, full-service cafes that roll from location to location. Bike Caffe franchises are available to Marley Coffee branded bikes that will sell coffee drinks exclusively featuring Marley Coffee beans.

Sales and Distribution Agreements and Understandings
 
The Company has entered into informal sales arrangements, not documented by definitive agreements, with several coffee distributors, beverage services and retailers around the world.

In Canada, the Company has distribution channels directly to certain retailers such as London Drugs and Best Buy, and Mother Parkers Tea and Coffee are the Company’s distributors for the food service segment.
 
In the United States, for the commercial break room segment, the Company uses its national sales representatives National Coffee Service & Vending (NCS&V) to distribute to various retailers and distributors.

In addition to distributions through NCS&V, the Company conducts sales directly to retailers as well as to distributors.  In order to get in front of retail and distributor accounts, we rely on the experience and relationships of our staff to acquire both groups.  Our marketing efforts are mainly comprised of public relations, social media, tradeshows and general advertising.
 
Within the U.S. grocery and specialty retail segment, the Company’s products are distributed through several distributors and we also distribute directly to certain retailers.
  
The Company has strengthened its on-line presence through the consolidation of its Marley Coffee and Jammin Java product lines. Cooking.com and Amazon.com carry the Company’s entire line of coffee. Our products are also being sold by other major on-line coffee retailers such as coffeewiz.com, bettercoffee.com, tikihutcoffee.com and coffeecow.com.
 
On October 11, 2011, the Company celebrated the kickoff of its Food Service program at Union County College in Cranford, New Jersey, with an event dubbed “Marley Coffee Day.” Since that time, the Company has developed a full food service program both in the United States and in Canada.  We have a full line of coffee products and equipment specifically available for food service clients such as universities, hotels, cafes, restaurants and convenient stores.  We believe that one of the largest opportunities for the Company so far is with Best Western Hotel, which has approved the Company as a Best Western Endorsed Supplier of hotel coffee services.   We hope to have additional hotel operators start picking up Marley Coffee for their hotels moving forward.

Patents, Trademarks and Licenses
 
As described above, pursuant to the September 13, 2012, FSHR License Agreement, which superseded and replaced our prior trademark license agreement which was in place with MCL, Fifty-Six Hope Road granted the Company a worldwide, exclusive, non-transferable license to utilize the “Marley Coffee” trademarks (the “Trademarks”) in connection with (i) the manufacturing, advertising, promotion, sale, offering for sale and distribution of coffee in all its forms and derivations, regardless of portions, sizes or packaging (the “Exclusive Licensed Products”) and (ii) coffee roasting services, coffee production services, and coffee sales, supply, distribution and support services, provided that the Company may not open retail coffee houses utilizing the Trademarks.

Additionally, the Company currently does business under the name “Marley Coffee”, the rights to which name is owned by Fifty-Six Hope Road.

The Company also maintains websites at http://www.marleycoffee.com (the rights to which domain name are owned by FSHR) and http://www.jamminjavacoffee.com. The information on, or that may be accessed through, our website is not incorporated by reference into this report and should not be considered a part of this report.

Competition
 
Competition in the hospitality and coffee markets is intense and we expect it to increase. Our most significant competitors, include premium coffee companies such as Starbucks, Tully’s, Seattle’s Best, Peet’s Coffee, Green Mountain Coffee, Farmer’s Brothers and other national, local and regional companies in the grocery retail and office coffee service and hospitality industry market, many of which have substantially greater financial, sales, marketing and human resources than we do.
 
We believe that our customers choose among coffee brands based on the total value proposition that includes quality, variety, convenience, personal taste preference and price. We believe that our market share in the category is driven by the quality of our product, while being competitively priced in the premium category. Our strategy is to target both national and regional markets.
 
Product Research and Development
 
We did not expend any significant funds on research and development activities for the fiscal years ending January 31, 2013 or January 31, 2012.
 
Employees
 
As of May 14, 2013, we had seven full-time employees and no part-time employees. We also utilize independent contractors and consultants to assist us with key functions. Our agreements with these independent contractors and consultants are usually short-term. We believe that our relations with our employees, independent contractors and consultants are good. None of our employees are represented by a union or covered by a collective bargaining agreement.
 
Funding and Financing Agreements

Credit Agreement
 
On July 19, 2012, we entered into a credit agreement with TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP, a Cayman Islands limited partnership (“TCA”), effective June 29, 2012 (the “Credit Agreement”). Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, TCA agreed to loan the Company up to $2 million for working capital purposes, based on the amount of eligible accounts receivable the Company provides to secure the repayment of the amounts borrowed.

On July 19, 2012, we borrowed $350,000 pursuant to the Credit Agreement, evidenced by a revolving note (the “Revolving Note”), the repayment of which was secured by a security interest in substantially all of our assets in favor of TCA, including the Trademarks. The Revolving Note accrued interest at the rate of 12% per annum (18% per annum upon a default) and was due and payable on July 18, 2013. After cash expenses, but not counting the cost of the Fee Facility Shares discussed below, the Company’s net amount of cash received at the closing on July 19, 2012 was $292,425 (the “Initial Funding”).
 
Upon an event of default under the Credit Agreement or the Revolving Note, TCA had the right to convert all or any portion of the outstanding principal, interest and all other amounts due under the Revolving Note into shares of our common stock at a conversion price equal to 85% of its lowest daily volume weighted average price during the five (5) trading days immediately prior to the conversion date, in each case subject to TCA not being able to beneficially own more than 4.99% of outstanding common stock upon any conversion. Because the conversion feature of the Revolving Note required the Company to issue a variable number of shares for settlement, the Revolving Note was deemed to be a derivative liability and reflected as debt on the Company’s balance sheet under the caption “Liabilities and Stockholders’ Equity – Current Liabilities – Secured promissory note – net of discount of $29,925 and $0, respectively”.
 
We also agreed to pay TCA various fees during the term of the Credit Agreement, including a fee of $100,000, payable in shares of our common stock (initially equal to 588,235 shares of common stock) (the “Fee Facility Shares”).  The number of Fee Facility Shares are adjusted upon the earlier of (i) the date that all Fee Facility Shares are sold or (ii) 12 months after the Initial Funding, such that the total value realized by TCA in connection with the sale of the Fee Facility Shares is equal to $100,000.   The Facility Fee is reflected on the Balance Sheet under the line item “Deferred financing costs” and is amortized over the term of the loan. The unamortized balance at January 31, 2013 is $43,490. The Fee Facility Shares are carried as a derivative liability so long as the Company is obligated to redeem the shares in cash. At each reporting period the Company evaluates its contingent obligation and records a liability as needed.
 
During the term of the Credit Agreement, we were prohibited from (i) incurring any indebtedness (other than in connection with the Credit Agreement or as otherwise approved by TCA); (ii) making any new investments, creating any encumbrances on our assets, permitting a change in control of the Company, issuing any shares of common stock (other than as otherwise approved by TCA and/or in connection with the issuance of up to 15% of our issued and outstanding common stock towards employee stock option plans or acquisitions); and (iii) affecting any transactions with affiliates of the Company or undertaking certain other actions as described in the Credit Agreement, except in the usual course of business.
 
We believe that the Credit Agreement and Revolving Note were terminated in connection with the Stipulation, defined below under “Ironridge Transaction”, pursuant to which Ironridge purchased the outstanding debt which we owed to TCA and also purchased $100,000 of outstanding liabilities relating to the Fee Facility Shares, which shares TCA returned to the Company for cancellation and which shares were cancelled in May 2013.
 
Investment and Securities Purchase Agreements
 
On August 1, 2012, we entered into an Investment Agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) with a third party lender (the “Lender”). The Investment Agreement provided that from time to time in our sole discretion, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Investment Agreement, we could deliver a notice of a put (“Put Notice”) to the Lender and require the Lender to purchase a number of shares of common stock equal to a maximum of 200% of the average daily volume of our common stock for the 10 trading days prior to the applicable Put Notice. The purchase price per share to be paid by the Lender was to be calculated at a 20% discount to the average of the three lowest bid prices during the 10 trading days immediately prior to the Lender’s receipt of the Put Notice.

 
10

 
In connection with the Investment Agreement, the Company and the Lender entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (“Registration Rights Agreement”). Under the Registration Rights Agreement, we agreed to use our commercially reasonable efforts to (a) file, within 21 days of the date of the Investment Agreement, a Registration Statement on Form S-1 covering the resale of the common stock subject to the Investment Agreement, and (b) to have the Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC within 120 calendar days after the date of the Registration Rights Agreement.
 
In addition to the Investment Agreement, on August 1, 2012, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with the Lender pursuant to which the Lender purchased 625,000 shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $0.12 per share and an aggregate purchase price of $75,000 (the “SPA Shares”). The purchase of the SPA Shares was affected in two closings of 312,500 shares each, with the first closing on August 1, 2012 and the second closing occurring on or around November 30, 2012 (provided that the Lender assigned its right to purchase the second tranche of shares and its rights to the first tranche of shares purchased, to its affiliate, Deer Valley Management, LLC). Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, we agreed to (i) register the SPA Shares with the SEC and (ii) provide price protection for the SPA Shares. We agreed to issue the holder of the SPA Shares, additional shares of our common stock on the earlier of the (a) the date on which the SEC declared the SPA Registration Statement effective (provided that such Registration Statement has since been withdrawn as discussed below); and (b) such time as the SPA Shares can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act, such that the total value of the SPA Shares and any additional shares issuable on such date total $75,000 in value, based on a 20% discount to the then trading price of our common stock.
 
On October 9, 2012, we filed a Form S-1 Registration Statement with the SEC covering 16,000,000 shares of our common stock relating to certain “put notices” pursuant to the Investment Agreement and 315,500 of the SPA Shares.

In March 2013, we and the Lender verbally agreed to terminate the Investment Agreement and the Registration Rights agreement and we withdrew the Form S-1 Registration Statement filing.  Due to the termination of the Investment Agreement and the withdrawal of the Registration Statement, we will not be able to raise any funds or sell any securities in connection with the Investment Agreement moving forward.

Additionally, in connection with the purchase of the SPA Shares, on each of August 24, 2012 and November 30, 2012, the Company paid to Kashwise Investments, as its consultant, a cash fee in the amount of $1,125 and 11,719 shares of common stock for advisory services in connection with the Investment Agreement ($2,250 and 23,438 shares of common stock in aggregate).
 
Ironridge Transaction

On March 6, 2013, pursuant to an order setting forth a stipulated settlement (the “Order” and the “Stipulation”) issued by the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Los Angeles – Central District (the “Court”), Ironridge Global IV, Ltd. (“Ironridge”), who had previously purchased a total of $1,017,744 in accounts payable and accrued expenses (the “Claim”) owed by us to various parties, was issued shares of our common stock (the “Initial Issuance”) in satisfaction of such accounts payable and accrued expenses, which amount will come off our balance sheet and will significantly improve our liquidity. The accounts payable and accrued expenses represented amounts originally owed by us to various creditors in connection with trade payables, the purchase of property and equipment, prior credit agreements, and attorneys’ fees.
 
The shares issued in the Initial Issuance are subject to adjustment as provided below:
 
 
·
From the date of the Stipulation until that number of consecutive trading days following the issuance date of the shares (the “Issuance Date”) required for the aggregate trading volume of the common stock to exceed $10,000,000 (the “Calculation Period”), Ironridge will retain that number of shares of common stock of the Initial Issuance (the “Final Amount”) with an aggregate value equal to (a) $1,068,631 (105% of the Claim Amount), plus reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses, divided by (b) 80% of the following: the closing price of the common stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date of entry of the Order (which closing price was $0.35 per share), not to exceed the arithmetic average of the individual volume weighted average prices of any five trading days during the Calculation Period, less $0.01 per share (the “Share Price”).

 
 
11

 
 
·
If at any time during the Calculation Period the Initial Issuance is less than any reasonable possible Final Amount or a daily volume weighted average price is below 80% of the closing price on the day before the Issuance Date, Ironridge may request that the Company reserve and issue additional shares of common stock (the “True-Up Shares”) as soon as possible, and in any event, within one trading day. For each day after Ironridge requests issuance that shares are not, for any reason, received into Ironridge’s account in electronic form and fully cleared for trading, the Calculation Period shall be extended by one trading day.

 
·
At the end of the Calculation Period, if the sum of the Initial Issuance shares and any True-Up Shares does not equal the Final Amount, adjustments shall be made to the shares of common stock issued pursuant to the Stipulation and either additional shares shall be issued to Ironridge or Ironridge shall return shares to the Company for cancellation.
 
The Stipulation provides that at no time shall shares of common stock be issued to Ironridge and its affiliates which would result in them owning or controlling more than 9.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock.  We also agreed pursuant to the Stipulation that (a) until at least one half of the total trading volume for the Calculation Period has traded, we would not, directly or indirectly, enter into or effect any split or reverse split of our common stock; (b) until at least thirty days from the date the Order is approved, we would not, directly or indirectly, issue any securities pursuant to a Form S-8 registration statement; and (c) until at least six months from the date the Order is approved, we would not, directly or indirectly, issue or sell any free trading securities for financing purposes (except for shares issuable to TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP).

The result of the Order and Stipulation is that a total of $1,017,744 in accounts payable and accrued expenses owed by us to various parties, which was purchased by Ironridge will be satisfied by the issuance of shares of our common stock as provided above, will come off our balance sheet and will significantly improve our liquidity.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.
 
RISK FACTORS
 
An investment in our common stock is highly speculative, and should only be made by persons who can afford to lose their entire investment in us. You should carefully consider the following risk factors and other information in this annual report before deciding to become a holder of our common stock. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business and financial results could be negatively affected to a significant extent.
 
 
12

 
We have had negative cash flows from operations and if we are not able to generate positive cash flow, our business operations may fail.
 
The Company incurred a net loss of $4,017,953 for the year ended January 31, 2013, and has an accumulated deficit since inception of $7,058,818. In addition, the Company has a history of losses and has only recently begun to generate revenue as part of its principal operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The operations of the Company have primarily been funded by the issuance of its common stock. The Company’s ability to meet its obligations in the ordinary course of business is dependent upon its ability to sell its products directly to end-users and through distributors, establish profitable operations through increased sales and decreased expenses, and obtain additional funds when needed. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to increase sales or reduce expenses to a level necessary to meet its current obligations or continue as a going concern. As a result, the opinion the Company received from its independent registered public accounting firm on its January 31, 2013 financial statements contains an explanatory paragraph stating that there is a substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we become unable to continue as a going concern, we may have to liquidate our assets, and may realize significantly less than the values at which they are carried on our financial statements, and stockholders may lose all or part of their investment in our common stock. The accompanying financial statements do not contain any adjustments for this uncertainty.

Shareholders may be diluted significantly through our efforts to obtain financing and satisfy obligations through the issuance of additional shares of our common stock.
 
Wherever possible, our Board of Directors will attempt to use non-cash consideration to satisfy obligations. In many instances, we believe that the non-cash consideration will consist of restricted shares of our common stock or where shares are to be issued to our officers, directors and applicable consultants, free trading shares pursuant to our Form S-8 registration statement. Our Board of Directors has authority, without action or vote of the shareholders, to issue all or part of the authorized but unissued shares of common stock. In addition, we may attempt to raise capital by selling shares of our common stock, possibly at a discount to market. These actions will result in dilution of the ownership interests of existing shareholders, may further dilute common stock book value, and that dilution may be material. Such issuances may also serve to enhance existing management’s ability to maintain control of the Company because the shares may be issued to parties or entities committed to supporting existing management.

We rely upon key personnel and if they leave us, our business plan and results of operations could be adversely affected.
 
We rely heavily on our Chief Executive Officer, Brent Toevs, our President, Chief Operating Officer, Secretary and Treasurer, Anh Tran, and the Chairman of our Board of Directors, Rohan Marley, for our success. Their experience and input create the foundation for our business and are responsible for the directorship and control over our activities. Moving forward, should we lose the services of these individuals for any reason, we will incur costs associated with recruiting a replacement and delays in our operations. If we are unable to replace such principal with another suitably trained individual or individuals, we may be forced to scale back or curtail our business plan and activities. As a result of this, your investment in us could become devalued or worthless. We currently have an aggregate of $1 million in Directors’ and Officers’ liability insurance in place covering our officers and directors.
  
We rely on our License Agreement with Fifty-Six Hope Road Music Limited, our Roasting Agreement with Canterbury, the NCS&V Agreement and various other agreements and understandings for our operations and revenues.
 
As described above under “Item 1. Business” – “Current Business Operations”, (a) on September 13, 2012, the Company entered into a license agreement with an effective date of August 7, 2012 with Fifty-Six Hope Road Music Limited, pursuant to which Fifty-Six Hope Road granted the Company a worldwide, exclusive, non-transferable license to utilize the “Marley Coffee” Trademarks in connection with Licensed Products; (b) in January 2012, we and Canterbury entered into the Roasting Agreement; and (c) on April 25, 2011, we entered into an Exclusive Sales and Marketing Agreement with NCS&V.  We also have numerous informal sale arrangements and distribution understandings, not documented by definitive agreements, in place with several coffee distributors, beverage services and retailers.
 
We anticipate generating revenue moving forward solely as a result of the sale of coffee bearing the Trademarks, which we source primarily under our Roasting Agreement with Canterbury and our agreement with European Roasterie, Inc. and which we distribute primarily through the NCSV Agreement and through other various distribution understandings. As a result, if the RSHR License Agreement was to be terminated, the Roasting Agreement, or the NCSV Agreement were to be terminated or not renewed, or to a lesser extent, if our various informal sale arrangements were to be terminated, our operations could be adversely effected, our revenues (if any), could be adversely affected and we could be forced to curtail or abandon our operations, causing any investment in the Company to decline in value or become worthless.
 
FSHR can terminate the FSHR License Agreement under certain circumstances.

Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the FSHR License Agreement, FSHR can terminate that agreement under certain circumstances, subject where applicable and as described in the agreement, our right to cure such breaches and other events, including: if we manufacture and sell inferior quality products using the Trademarks; we breach the FSHR License Agreement; we are deemed to have performed gross negligence or wanton misconduct under the FSHR License Agreement; we enter into bankruptcy proceedings; or the Securities and Exchange Commission or any similar government agency in any country, territory or possession makes any negative or unlawful finding regarding our activities.  The termination of the FSHR License Agreement would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and assets, could force us to scale back and/or abandon our business operations and could cause the value of our common stock to decline in value or become worthless.
 
Our revenues are significantly dependent on sales to a small number of customers and if we lose those customers our revenues will be adversely affected.

A significant portion of our revenue is derived from a limited number of customers. The loss of one or more of our significant customers would have a material impact on our revenues and results of operations.

During the year ended January 31, 2013, of the customers that provided 10 percent or more of our revenue, four provided about 74% of the sales revenue and during the year ended January 31, 2012, two provided about 83% of the sales revenue.  As such, if we were to lose any of our significant customers and were unable to replace such customer with an equally sized replacement, our revenues and results of operations would be materially adversely affected.

Competition for coffee products and coffee brands is intense and could affect our future sales and profitability.
 
The coffee industry is highly fragmented. Competition in coffee products and brands are increasingly intense as relatively low barriers to entry encourage new competitors to enter the marketplace. In addition, we believe that maintaining and developing our brands is important to our success and the importance of brand recognition may increase to the extent that competitors offer products similar to ours. Many of our current and potential competitors have substantially greater financial, marketing and operating resources and access to capital than we do. Our primary competitors include Starbucks, Tully’s, Seattle’s Best, Peet’s Coffee, Green Mountain Coffee, Farmer’s Brothers and other companies in the office coffee service and hospitality industry market. If we do not succeed in effectively differentiating ourselves from our competitors in the coffee industry, including by developing and maintaining our brands, or our competitors adopt our strategies, then our competitive position may be weakened and our sales of coffee, and accordingly our future revenues (if any), may be materially adversely affected.
 
The adjustable number of shares of common stock we are required to issue Ironridge pursuant to the Stipulation could require us to issue a substantially greater number of shares, which may adversely affect the market price of our common stock and cause dilution to our existing stockholders.

Pursuant to the terms of the Order and the Stipulation (described above under “Item 1. Business” – “Funding and Financing Agreements” – “Ironridge Transaction”), the Company was required to issue and deliver to Ironridge certain shares of the Company’s common stock, in settlement of the Claim which shares are subject to adjustment as described above.  The issuance of additional shares to Ironridge could cause immediate and substantial dilution to our existing shareholders and adversely affect the trading price of our common stock. Additionally, we believe that Ironridge may be selling the shares they were issued by the Company during the Calculation Period, which could reduce the trading price of our common stock and affect the number of shares they are ultimately able to receive as a result of such transaction.

Our business is dependent on sales of coffee, and if demand for coffee decreases, our business would suffer.
 
All of our revenues are planned to be generated through the sale of coffee. Demand for coffee is affected by many factors, including:
 
 
Changes in consumer tastes and preferences;
 
Changes in consumer lifestyles;
 
National, regional and local economic and political conditions;
 
Perceptions or concerns about the environmental impact of our products;
 
Demographic trends; and
 
Perceived or actual health benefits or risks.
 
Because we are highly dependent on consumer demand for coffee, a shift in consumer preferences away from coffee would harm our business more than if we had more diversified product offerings. If customer demand for our coffee decreases, our sales, if any, would decrease and we would be materially adversely affected.
 
 
15

 
If we fail to continue to develop and maintain our brand, our business could suffer.
 
We believe that maintaining and developing our brand is critical to our success and that the importance of brand recognition may increase as a result of competitors offering products similar to ours. Our brand building initiative involves increasing the availability of our products on the Internet, in grocery stores, licensed locations and foodservice locations to increase awareness of our brand and create and maintain brand loyalty. If our brand building initiative is unsuccessful, we may never recover the expenses incurred in connection with these efforts and we may be unable to increase our future revenue or implement our business strategy. As part of our brand building initiative, we may revise our packaging or make other changes from time to time. If these changes are not accepted by customers, our business could suffer.
 
Our success in promoting and enhancing our brand will also depend on our ability to provide customers with high quality products and customer service. Although we take measures to ensure that we sell only high-quality coffee, we have no control over our coffee products once purchased by customers. Accordingly, customers may prepare coffee from our products in a manner inconsistent with our standards, store our coffee for long periods of time or resell our coffee without our consent, which in each case, potentially affects the quality of the coffee prepared from our products. If customers do not perceive our products to be of high quality, then our reputation and the value of our brand may be diminished and, consequently, our ability to implement our business strategy may be adversely affected.
 
Coffee costs have been very volatile over the last several years and increases in the cost of high-quality coffee beans could impact the profitability of our business.
 
In the past several years, we have experienced a dramatic increase in the price volatility of Arabica coffee traded on the New York Board of Trade. While we do not purchase coffee on the commodity markets, price movements in the commodity trading of Arabica coffee beans impact the prices we pay. We expect the coffee commodity market to continue to be challenging as it continues to be influenced by worldwide supply and demand, the relative strength of the United States Dollar and speculative trading. Coffee prices can also be affected by multiple factors in the producing countries, including weather, natural disasters, political and economic conditions, export quotas or similar factors.

Decreases in the availability of high-quality coffee beans could impact the profitability and growth of our business.
 
If we are not able to purchase sufficient quantities of high-quality coffee beans due to any of the above factors, we may not be able to fulfill the demand for our coffee, our revenue may decrease and our ability to expand our business may be negatively impacted.
 
Besides coffee, we face exposure to other commodity cost fluctuations, which could impair our profitability.
 
In addition to the increase in coffee costs discussed above, we are exposed to cost fluctuation in other commodities, including milk and fuel. For example, an increase in the cost of fuel could indirectly lead to higher electricity costs, transportation costs and other commodity costs. An increase in the cost of milk or other products, including sugar and other sweeteners, which coffee drinkers use to flavor and season their coffee could also lead to a decrease in the demand for our products.  Much like coffee costs, the costs of these commodities depend on various factors beyond our control, including economic and political conditions, foreign currency fluctuations and global weather patterns. To the extent that we are unable to pass along such costs to our customers through price increases, our margins and profitability will decrease.
 
Adverse public or medical opinion about caffeine may harm our business.
 
Our coffee contains significant amounts of caffeine and other active compounds, the health effects of some of which are not fully understood. A number of research studies conclude or suggest that excessive consumption of caffeine may lead to increased heart rate, nausea and vomiting, restlessness and anxiety, depression, headaches, tremors, sleeplessness and other adverse health effects. An unfavorable report on the health effects of caffeine or other compounds present in coffee could significantly reduce the demand for coffee, which could harm our business and reduce our sales and profits. Also, we could become subject to litigation relating to the existence of such compounds in our coffee; any such litigation could be costly and could divert management attention.
 
 
16

 
Adverse publicity regarding product quality or food and beverage safety, whether or not accurate, may harm our business.
 
We may be the subject of complaints or litigation from customers alleging beverage and food-related illnesses or other quality, health or operational concerns. Adverse publicity resulting from such allegations may materially adversely affect us, regardless of whether such allegations are true or whether we are ultimately held liable. In addition, any litigation relating to such allegations could be costly and could divert management attention.
 
We face a risk of a change in control due to the fact that our current officers and directors do not own a majority of our outstanding voting stock.
 
Our current officers and our directors do not hold voting control over the Company. As a result, our shareholders who are not officers and directors of us may be able to obtain a sufficient number of votes to choose who serves on our Board of Directors and/or to remove our current directors from the Board of Directors. Because of this, the current composition of our Board of Directors may change in the future, which could in turn have an effect on those individuals who currently serve in management positions with us. If that were to happen, our new management could affect a change in our business focus and/or curtail or abandon our business operations, which in turn could cause the value of our securities, if any, to decline or become worthless.
 
Failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations could harm our business and financial results.

Our policies and procedures are designed to comply with all applicable laws, accounting and reporting requirements, tax rules and other regulations and requirements, including those imposed by the SEC, NASDAQ, and foreign countries, as well as applicable trade, labor, healthcare, privacy, food, anti-bribery and corruption and merchandise laws. The complexity of the regulatory environment in which we operate and the related cost of compliance are both increasing due to additional or changing legal and regulatory requirements, our ongoing expansion into new markets and new channels, together with the fact that foreign laws occasionally conflict with domestic laws. In addition to potential damage to our reputation and brand, failure to comply with the various laws and regulations as well as changes in laws and regulations or the manner in which they are interpreted or applied, may result in civil and criminal liability, damages, fines and penalties, increased cost of regulatory compliance and restatements of our financial statements. Future laws or regulations (or the cost of complying with such laws, regulations or requirements) could also adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Adverse changes in global and domestic economic conditions or a worsening of the United States economy could materially adversely affect us.

Our sales and performance depend significantly on consumer confidence and discretionary spending, which are still under pressure from United States and global economic conditions.  A worsening of the economic downturn and decrease in consumer spending may adversely impact our sales, ability to market our products, build customer loyalty, or otherwise implement our business strategy and further diversify the geographical concentration of our operations.  For example, we are highly dependent on consumer demand for specialty coffee and a shift in consumer demand away from specialty coffee due to economic or other consumer preferences would harm our business.  Keurig®, Bunn® and other coffee brewer sales may also decline as a result of the economic environment, which would in turn hurt our sales of products designed specifically for those brewing machines.


 
17

 
We believe that our future success will depend in part on our ability to obtain and maintain protection of our intellectual property and brand names.
 
Our success will depend in part on our ability to maintain and enforce the Trademarks we license through the FSHR License Agreement (described above) and additional trademarks and service marks we may obtain in the future (together with the Trademarks, the “Marks”) registered by the Company. In the future, competitors or other third parties could claim that the Marks infringe on their rights, which could force us to defend infringement actions or challenge the validity of the third parties’ trademarks in court. Furthermore, we may have to take action, file lawsuits and expend significant resources in the future to protect the Marks and stop other parties from infringing on the use of such Marks and we cannot assure you that we will have sufficient resources to pursue such litigation or actions. Any expenses we are forced to expend in defending our Marks or stopping third parties from infringing on such Marks will decrease the amount of working capital we have available for our business activities and could cause us to curtail or abandon our operations.
 
We may be subject to material impact on our liquidity as a result of the restrictive covenants in the Stipulation with Ironridge.
 
In connection with the Stipulation we entered into with Ironridge (as described in greater detail above under “Part 1” – “Item 1. Business” – “Funding and Financing Agreements” – “Ironridge Transaction”) we agreed that (a) until at least one half of the total trading volume for the Calculation Period has traded, we would not, directly or indirectly, enter into or effect any split or reverse split of our common stock; and (b) until at least six months from the date the Order is approved (September 6, 2013), we would not, directly or indirectly, issue or sell any free trading securities for financing purposes.  The restrictions we are required to comply with in connection with the Ironridge transaction may make it harder for us to raise funds, which could affect our liquidity, prohibit our ability to grow our operations and prevent us from completing our business plan as currently contemplated.

There is currently a volatile, sporadic and illiquid market for our common stock.
 
Our securities are currently quoted on the OTCQB under the symbol “JAMN,” however, we currently have a volatile, sporadic and illiquid market for our common stock, which is subject to wide fluctuations in response to several factors, including, but not limited to:
 
 
actual or anticipated variations in our results of operations;
 
our ability or inability to generate new revenues;
 
increased competition; and
 
conditions and trends in the market for medical testing products.
 
Furthermore, our stock price may be impacted by factors that are unrelated or disproportionate to our operating performance. These market fluctuations, as well as general economic, political and market conditions, such as recessions, interest rates or international currency fluctuations may adversely affect the market price and liquidity of our common stock.
 
Investors may face significant restrictions on the resale of our common stock due to federal regulations of “penny stocks.”
 
We are subject to the requirements of Rule 15(g)9, promulgated under the Exchange Act, as long as the price of our common stock is below $5.00 per share. Under such rule, broker-dealers who recommend low-priced securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors must satisfy special sales practice requirements, including a requirement that they make an individualized written suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s consent prior to the transaction. The Securities Enforcement Remedies and Penny Stock Reform Act of 1990, also requires additional disclosure in connection with any trades involving a stock defined as a penny stock. Generally, the SEC defines a penny stock as any equity security not traded on an exchange or quoted on NASDAQ that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share. The required penny stock disclosures include the delivery, prior to any transaction, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated with it. Such requirements could severely limit the market liquidity of the securities and the ability of purchasers to sell their securities in the secondary market.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS.
 
None.
 
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.
 
As of this filing of this report, we rent a virtual executive suite for our corporate headquarters in Beverly Hills, California. Under the agreement, we are not allocated any specific amount of office space but have access to office and conference room space on an as needed basis. Our monthly rental costs vary based on our actual space and office service usage. Mr. Anh Tran, our president, has personally guaranteed our obligations under the virtual executive suites agreement. If we fail to pay our obligations under the virtual executive suites agreement and Mr. Tran pays such amounts pursuant to his personal guarantee, we will be obligated to repay Mr. Trans for any such amounts paid by him. We believe that our current facilities are sufficient for the current operations of our business and we believe that suitable additional space in various applicable local markets is available to accommodate any needs that may arise.
 
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
 
From time to time, we may become party to litigation or other legal proceedings that we consider to be a part of the ordinary course of our business. We are not currently involved in legal proceedings that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations. We may become involved in material legal proceedings in the future.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES.
 
Market Information and Holders

Our common stock has been quoted on the OTCQB market under the symbol “JAMN” since July 23, 2012, when our common stock was delisted from the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board (the “OTCBB”) due to the fact that no market maker quoted our common stock on the OTCBB for a period of four or more days.  We have not yet determined whether we will relist our common stock on the OTCBB or continue to be quoted on the OTCQB market maintained by the OTC Markets Group Inc.

The following table sets forth the high and low trading prices of one (1) share of our common stock for each fiscal quarter over the past two fiscal years. The quotations provided are for the over the counter market, which reflect interdealer prices without retail mark-up, mark-down or commissions, and may not represent actual transactions. Our common stock trades on a limited, sporadic and volatile basis.

Approximate Number of Equity Security Holders
 
As of April 23, 2013, there were 22 shareholders of record of the common stock. This number does not include stockholders for whom shares were held in “nominee” or “street name”.
 
Because the Company did not comply with certain Canadian securities filings requirements, the Company’s common stock is not eligible to be traded in British Columbia and is subject to a Cease Trade Order. At this stage in the Company’s development, the Company has determined to invest its resources in other aspects of its business rather than incurring the significant expense to regain compliance with the British Columbia Securities Commission requirements.
 
Dividends
 
We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.  We intend to retain all earnings, if any, for the foreseeable future for use in the operation of our business and to fund future growth of our business.
 
Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans
 
The following table sets forth information, as of January 31, 2013, with respect to our compensation plans under which common stock is authorized for issuance. We grant options to officers, directors, employees and consultants under our Equity Compensation Plan. We believe that the exercise price for all of the options set forth below reflects at least 100% of the fair market value on the dates of grant for the options at issue.

2012 Equity Incentive Plan

On October 14, 2012, the Board of Directors approved the Company’s 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2012 Plan”). The 2012 Plan authorizes the issuance of various forms of stock-based awards, including incentive or non-qualified options, restricted stock awards, restricted units, stock appreciation rights, performance shares and other securities as described in greater detail in the 2012 Plan, to the Company’s employees, officers, directors and consultants. A total of 12,000,000 shares are authorized for issuance under the 2012 Plan, which has not been approved by the shareholders of the Company to date, and as of the filing of this report, a total of 4,775,369 shares are available for issuance under the 2012 Plan.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

As described in greater detail above under “Part 1” – “Item 1. Business” – “Funding and Financing Agreements” – “Investment and Securities Purchase Agreements”, on August 1, 2012, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with the Lender pursuant to which the Lender purchased 625,000 shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $0.12 per share and an aggregate purchase price of $75,000 (the “SPA Shares”), which purchase was affected in two separate closings (one on August 1, 2012 and one on or around November 30, 2012).

Additionally, in connection with the purchase of the SPA Shares, on each of August 24, 2012 and November 30, 2012, the Company paid to Kashwise Investments, as its consultant, a cash fee in the amount of $1,125 and 11,719 shares of common stock for advisory services in connection with the Investment Agreement ($2,250 and 23,438 shares of common stock in aggregate).

The Company claims an exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) for these issuances, because, among other things, the transactions did not involve a public offering, each investor was an accredited investor, each investor had access to information about the Company and their investment, each investor took the respective security for investment and not resale and the Company took appropriate measures to restrict the transfer of the securities. None of these securities may be re-offered or resold absent either registration under the Act or the availability of an exemption from the registration requirement.

As described in greater detail above under “Part 1” – “Item 1. Business” – “Funding and Financing Agreements” – “Ironridge Transaction”, on March 7, 2013, we issued certain shares of common stock to Ironridge in connection with the Order and Stipulation, which are subject to adjustment as discussed above.

The Company claims an exemption from registration provided by Section 3(a)(10) of the Act for the issuance of the shares of the Company’s common stock issued to Ironridge in connection with the Initial Issuance, as the issuance of securities was in exchange for bona fide outstanding claims, where the terms and conditions of such issuance were approved by a court after a hearing upon the fairness of such terms and conditions.
 
In May 2013, TCA Global Credit Master Fund LP, cancelled 588,235 shares of our common stock in connection with the termination of our prior Credit Agreement with TCA.
 
In May 2013, we issued 30,000 restricted shares of our common stock to a consultant in consideration for investor relations services.
 
The Company claims an exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Act for this issuance because, among other things, the transaction did not involve a public offering, the investor had access to information about the Company and its investment, the investor took the security for investment and not resale and the Company took appropriate measures to restrict the transfer of the security. The security may not be re-offered or resold absent either registration under the Act or the availability of an exemption from the registration requirement.

 
21

 
In January 2010, the Company granted options to purchase 333,333 shares of the Company’s common stock to a consultant in consideration for services rendered, which options vested immediately, have a term of five years and an exercise price of $0.40 per share.

The Company claims an exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Act, because, among other things, the transaction did not involve a public offering, the investor had access to information about the Company as would be required under a Registration Statement under the Act, the investor took the options for investment and not resale and the Company took appropriate measures to restrict the transfer of the securities. None of these securities may be re-offered or resold absent either registration under the Act or the availability of an exemption from the registration requirement.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
 
You should read the following discussion and analysis in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statement and related Notes thereto included in Part II, Item 8 of this Report and the “Risk Factors” included in Part I, Item IA of this Report, before deciding to purchase, hold or sell our common stock.
 
Overview
 
We are in the business of providing premium roasted coffee through all of our distribution channels, which include, but are not limited to, the service, hospitality, office coffee service and “big box” store markets. We intend to develop a significant market share of the category and achieve a leadership position by capitalizing on the global recognition of the Marley name. Through a licensing agreement with Fifty-Six Hope Road (described above under “Business” – “Current Business Operations”), the Company has the worldwide right to use, and sublicense, the intellectual property rights in and to the late reggae performer, Robert Nesta Marley, professionally known as Bob Marley, including “Marley Coffee”, in connection with (i) the manufacturing, advertising, promotion, sale, offering for sale and distribution of coffee in all its forms and derivations, regardless of portions, sizes or packaging and (ii) coffee roasting services, coffee production services, and coffee sales, supply, distribution and support services, provided that the Company may not open retail coffee houses utilizing the Trademarks.

During the year ended January 31, 2012 (“Fiscal 2012”) we grew from a development stage company to a fully functional organization. We raised $2,525,000 in private placements, which allowed us to hire additional personnel, more effectively market our products and increase our business lines.
 
 
22

 
During the year ended January 31, 2013 (“Fiscal 2013”), we added two additional revenue channels: Marley Coffee branded vending solutions and Marley Coffee branded Bike Cafés (as described in greater detail above (described above under “Business” – “Current Business Operations”).

Additionally, subsequent to the end of Fiscal 2013, we affected the transaction with Ironridge, described in greater detail above under “Part 1” – “Item 1. Business” – “Funding and Financing Agreements” – “Ironridge Transaction”, pursuant to which $1,017,744 in accounts payable and accrued expenses owed by us to various parties, which was purchased by Ironridge pursuant to the Receivable Purchase Agreement, will be satisfied by the issuance of shares of our common stock, will come off our balance sheet and will significantly improve our liquidity.

Moving forward throughout fiscal 2014, we hope to expand our operations into new markets and into new retail grocery locations, leverage the Trademarks and create additional brand awareness for our products.

Throughout fiscal 2013, the Company issued shares of common stock in consideration to its officers, directors and employees in an effort to maximize its cash on hand and improve liquidity.  The Company has also accrued salaries for several of its officers and employees and will continue accruing such salaries until it has sufficient available funds to pay such salaries. As the Company continues to grow it will need to raise additional cash in order to maintain its growth and fund its operations.  If the Company is unable to access additional capital moving forward, it will hurt our ability to maintain growth and possibly jeopardize our ability to maintain our current operations.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the Years Ended January 31, 2013 and 2012
 
Sales Revenue. Sales revenues for the years ended January 31, 2013 and 2012 were $1,816,432 and $402,698, respectively, which represents an increase of $1,413,734. Sales revenue increased as a result of the Company's continued maturation from its development stage, the expansion of product lines and verticals and its ability to execute on its business plan.
 
Cost of Sales. Cost of sales for the years ended January 31, 2013 and 2012 were $1,434,218 and $340,395, respectively, which represents an increase of $1,093,823, a significant increase was attributed to increased compensation and general and administrative expense associated with the overall expansion of our business.  The Company also spent money on acquiring new accounts and managing those accounts.
 
Compensation and Benefit Expenses. Compensation and benefits for the years ended January 31, 2013 and 2012, were $2,437,786 and $939,317, respectively, which represents an increase of $1,498,469. The increase was a result of stock compensation expenses and executive officer payroll. The increase was mostly non-cash resulting from stock compensation expenses associated with options granted totaling $2,006,193.
 
Selling and Marketing Expenses. Selling and marketing expenses for the years ended January 31, 2013 and 2012, were $262,230 and $221,888, respectively, which represents an increase of $40,342. The increase was principally the result of marketing expenses related to the ramping up of sales operations and building on new accounts. We anticipate experiencing further increases in marketing expenses throughout 2013 as we continue to expand our customer base and build out the Company brand.
 
General and Administrative Expenses.   General and administrative expenses for the years ended January 31, 2013 and 2012, were $1,463,511 and $1,369,372, respectively, which represents an increase of $94,139. The increase was principally the result of increased professional fees, payroll and corporate reporting expenses.  General and administrative expense also increased due to increased insurance expense, recruiting expense and increased costs associated with the overall expansion of our business.
 
 
23

 
Net Loss. We incurred a net loss of $4,017,953 and $2,466,039 for the years ended January 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The principal reason for the increased net loss is: (i) sales of the Company’s products have not caught-up with the expenses involved in connection with putting in place the Company’s multichannel distribution and sales plan; (ii) compensation expenses necessary to incentivize management; (iii) selling expenses incurred in connection with raising necessary working capital; and (iv) professional fees, including those necessary to comply with rules and regulations applicable to a U.S. public reporting company. Non-cash payments of common stock included in net loss for the years ended January 31, 2013 and 2012 were $2,006,193 and $939,317, respectively.
 
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
Since our inception, we have financed our operations primarily through the issuance of our common stock.

At January 31, 2013, we had total assets of $1,447,616 and total liabilities of $1,346,046. Our current sources of liquidity include our existing cash and cash equivalents and cash from operations, provided that we have historically raised funds through the sale of common stock in private placements as well. For the year ended January 31, 2013, although we generated sales of $1,816,432 we had a net loss of $4,017,953. Included in this loss were non-cash payments of common stock totaling $2,006,193.

Total current assets of $678,754 as of January 31, 2013 included restricted cash of $65,382, relating to the TCA Global Master Fund sweep account (discussed in Note 9 of the financials), accounts receivable of $415,721, prepaid expenses of $173,264, and other current assets of $24,387.

We had total assets as of January 31, 2013 of $1,447,616 which included the total current assets of $678,754, $19,705 of property and equipment, net, $705,667 of license agreement, representing the value of the FSHR License Agreement, and $43,490 of deferred financing costs.

We had total liabilities of $1,346,046 as of January 31, 2013, which were solely current liabilities and included $762,663 of accounts payable, $2,258 of accounts payable related party, representing amounts loaned to us by Anh Tran, our President, which amount is unsecured, non-interest bearing and due on demand, $92,586 of accrued expenses, $30,073 of accrued expenses, related party relating to amounts owed to Marley Coffee Canada, Inc., a related party of MCL, $8,931 of  bank overdraft relating to the timing of payments of checks and deposits received, $9,454 of related party note payable, relating to $11,825 owed to MCL in connection with the MCL Termination Agreement and a debit of $2,371 from the timing of payments between Anh Tran and the Company, $320,075 of secured promissory note, representing the $350,000 TCA Global Master Fund note payable net of discount of $29,925, which was purchased by Ironridge and exchanged for the right to receive common stock in March 2013, as described above, and $120,006 in connection with the TCA Global Master Fund conversion feature and facility fee derivative liabilities, which was terminated in connection with the Ironridge transaction.

As of the filing of this report, we believe that our cash position and the revenues we generate will be sufficient to meet our working capital needs for approximately the next twelve months based on the pace of our planned activities. During the next 12 months, we estimate our funding requirements to expand our operations to be approximately $1,200,000. There can be no assurance that any such financing will be available upon terms and conditions acceptable to us, if at all.
 
We have not yet generated net income through the sale of our products and make no assurances that net income will be generated in the future.  We will remain flexible in the implementation of our business strategy and will revise downward our funding requirements and further reduce our selling and marketing and our general and administrative expenses to a level that is in line with our financial means but consistent with our vision.

 
24

 
Additionally in March 2013, we affected the transaction with Ironridge, described in greater detail above under “Part 1” – “Item 1. Business” – “Funding and Financing Agreements” – “Ironridge Transaction”, pursuant to which $1,017,744 in accounts payable and accrued expenses owed by us to various parties, which was purchased by Ironridge pursuant to the Receivable Purchase Agreement, will be satisfied by the issuance of shares of our common stock, will come off our balance sheet and will significantly improve our liquidity.

From time to time, we may attempt to raise capital through either equity or debt offerings. Our capital requirements will depend on many factors, including, among other things, the rate at which our business grows, with corresponding demands for working capital and expansion capacity. We could be required, or may elect, to seek additional funding through public or private equity, debt financing or bank financing. However, a credit facility, or additional funds through public or private equity or other debt financing, may not be available on terms acceptable to us or at all, or that any such financing activity would not be dilutive to our stockholders. Without additional funds and/or increased revenues, we may not expand our business as planned.
 
Our ability to meet our obligations in the ordinary course of business is dependent upon our ability to sell our products directly to end-users and through distributors, establish profitable operations through increased sales and decreased expenses and obtain additional funds when needed.
 
There can be no assurance that we will be able to increase sales, reduce expenses or obtain additional financing, if necessary, at a level to meet our current obligations. As a result, the opinion we have received from our independent registered public accounting firm on our January 31, 2013 financial statements contains an explanatory paragraph stating that there is a substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern.

Operating Activities
 
Compared to the corresponding period in 2012, net cash used in operating activities decreased by approximately $501,888 for the year ended January 31, 2013. The decrease was primarily due to our net loss of $4,017,953, higher utilization of cash resources for payment of operating liabilities such as accounts payable, pre-paid expenses and other current assets, and other current liabilities. The impact of such decrease was partially offset by an increase of $380,939 in accounts receivable; $2,006,193 of stock compensation expenses; and an increase in accounts payable of $742,436.
 
Investing Activities
 
Compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2012, net cash used in investing activities increased by approximately $69,822 due primarily to the purchase of computer equipment and the investment in restricted cash in connection with  the TCA Global Master Fund sweep account.
 
 
25

 
Financing Activities
 
Compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2012, net cash provided by financing activities decreased by approximately $2,110,285 for the year ended January 31, 2012 primarily because the Company’s capital-raising activities decreased in 2012.

From time to time, we may attempt to raise capital through either equity or debt offerings. Our capital requirements will depend on many factors, including, among other things, the rate at which our business grows, with corresponding demands for working capital and expansion capacity. We could be required, or may elect, to seek additional funding through public or private equity, debt financing or bank financing.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
None.
 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our most significant judgments and estimates used in preparation of our financial statements.
 
Stock-Based Compensation. On January 1, 2006, we adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 718 which establishes accounting for equity instruments exchanged for employee service. We utilize the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of employee stock based compensation at the date of grant, which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including expected volatility and expected life. Changes in these inputs and assumptions can materially affect the measure of estimated fair value of our share-based compensation. These assumptions are subjective and generally require significant analysis and judgment to develop. When estimating fair value, some of the assumptions will be based on, or determined from, external data and other assumptions may be derived from our historical experience with stock-based payment arrangements. The appropriate weight to place on historical experience is a matter of judgment, based on relevant facts and circumstances.

We estimated volatility by considering historical stock volatility. We have opted to use the simplified method for estimating the expected term of stock options equal to the midpoint between the vesting period and the contractual term.
 
Revenue Recognition. All revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service or sale is complete, the price is fixed or determinable and ability to collect is reasonably assured. Revenue is derived from the sale of coffee products and is recognized on a gross basis upon shipment. The Company utilizes a third party for the production and fulfillment of orders placed by customers. Customers order directly from the Company and accordingly, the Company acts as a principal, takes title to the products, and has the risks and rewards of ownership, such as the risk of loss for collection, delivery and returns.
 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets . Long-lived assets consist of a license agreement that was recorded at the estimated cost to acquire the asset (See Note 2). The license agreement is reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Determination of recoverability is based on an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows resulting from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. In the event that such cash flows are not expected to be sufficient to recover the carrying amount of the assets, the assets are written down to their estimated fair values. Management evaluated the carrying value of the license and determined that no impairment existed at January 31, 2013 or 2012.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file with the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As required by Rule 15d-15(b) of the Exchange Act, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report.  Based on the foregoing, our principal executive and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective to ensure the information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
 
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company's financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP) and includes those policies and procedures that:
 
 
pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
 
 
 
27

 
 
 
 
provide reasonable assurance that the transactions are recorded  as necessary to permit the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors;
 
 
 
provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements;
 
 
 
pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
 
 
 
provide reasonable assurance that the transactions are recorded  as necessary to permit the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and
 
 
 
provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 
Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk. Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company.
 
Management has used the framework set forth in the report entitled Internal Control-Integrated Framework published by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, known as COSO, to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Based on this assessment, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of January 31, 2013.
 
A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. In connection with the assessment described above, management identified the following control deficiencies that represent material weaknesses at January 31, 2013:
 
 
(1)
lack of a functioning audit committee and lack of a majority of outside directors on the Company's Board of Directors capable to oversee the audit function;
 
 
 
(2)
inadequate segregation of duties due to limited number of personnel, which makes the reporting process susceptible to management override;
 
 
 
(3)
insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; and
 
 
 
(4)
ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting processes.
 
 
 
28

 
Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth in items (1) through (4) above did not have an effect on the Company's financial reporting during the year ended January 31, 2013.
 
We are committed to improving our financial organization. As part of this commitment, moving forward, at such time as we are able to raise additional funding, we plan to hire additional outside accounting personnel and take action to consolidate check writing and financial controls.  Additionally, as soon as funds are available, we plan to make a determination as to whether it is in the Company’s best interest to (1) appoint one or more outside directors to our Board of Directors to be appointed to the audit committee of the Company resulting in a fully functioning audit committee who will undertake the oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; (2) create a position to segregate duties consistent with control objectives and will increase our personnel resources; (3) hire independent third parties to provide expert advice; and (4) prepare and implement sufficient written policies and checklists which will set forth procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements.
 
We will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures and our internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and are committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.
 
This annual report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
There was no change in internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) during our fourth fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Term of Office
 
Our directors are elected annually and hold office until our next annual meeting of the shareholders and until their successors are elected and qualified or until removed from office in accordance with our bylaws and state law. Officers will hold their positions at the pleasure of the Board of Directors, absent any employment agreement. Our officers and directors may receive compensation as determined by us from time to time by vote of the Board of Directors. Such compensation might be in the form of stock options. Directors may be reimbursed by the Company for expenses incurred in attending meetings of the Board of Directors. Vacancies in the Board are filled by majority vote of the remaining directors.
 
Board Leadership Structure

The roles of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company are currently held separately. Mr. Marley serves as Chairman and Mr. Toevs serves as Chief Executive Officer.  The Board of Directors does not have a policy as to whether the Chairman should be an independent director, an affiliated director, or a member of management.  Our Board believes that the Company’s current leadership structure is appropriate because it effectively allocates authority, responsibility, and oversight between management (the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Toevs) and the members of our Board (currently Mr. Marley as Chairman). It does this by giving primary responsibility for the operational leadership and strategic direction of the Company to its Chief Executive Officer, while enabling our Chairman to facilitate our Board’s oversight of management, promote communication between management and our Board, and support our Board’s consideration of key governance matters. The Board believes that its programs for overseeing risk, as described below, would be effective under a variety of leadership frameworks and therefore do not materially affect its choice of structure.

Board of Directors Meetings

The Company had only a limited number of formal meetings of the Board of Directors of the Company during the last fiscal year ending January 31, 2013, and instead took all actions via written consent of the Board of Directors.  Each director attended at least 75% of the total number of meetings of the Board.

Family Relationships
 
There are no family relationships between any of our directors or executive officers.
 
Employment Agreements
 
On August 5, 2011, the Company formalized its employment arrangement with Anh Tran, its President, and the Board approved the contract which is effective as of August 1, 2011 with a term of three years.  The agreement provides for Mr. Tran to receive an annual salary of $120,000, less ordinary withholdings, with a ten percent (10%) annual incremental increase, subject to change from time to time as the Board or a compensation committee of the Board may determine and approve.  Mr. Tran may also receive a cash bonus following the end of each fiscal year upon the satisfaction, as determined by the Board at its sole discretion, of performance objectives as established by the Board on an annual basis.  Mr. Tran is also entitled to receive up to $10,000 per year for contribution, up to the maximum U.S. Federal amount, to his Individual Retirement Account.  In addition to standard benefits, the Company agreed to pay Mr. Tran for the costs of maintaining a home office (equipment, supplies, telecommunication costs) and for a mobile phone and plan.  In the event of termination of Mr. Tran’s employment by the Company without cause or Mr. Tran for good reason (as described in the agreement), the Company agreed to pay Mr. Tran, in addition to all other compensation which he would be due, two months of salary under the agreement as severance pay (or such lesser amount of months then left on the term).  Pursuant to the agreement, Mr. Tran agreed to not compete against the Company for a period of one year following the termination of the agreement and to not solicit employees of the Company for two years following the termination of the agreement.

On August 5, 2011, the Board approved an employment agreement with Brent Toevs, to serve as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), with a term of three years.  Mr. Toevs shall receive an annual salary of $155,000, less ordinary withholdings, with a ten percent (10%) annual incremental increase, subject to change from time to time as the Board or a compensation committee of the Board may determine and approve.  Mr. Toevs may also receive a cash bonus following the end of each fiscal year upon the satisfaction, as determined by the Board at its sole discretion, of performance objectives as established by the Board on an annual basis.  Mr. Toevs is also entitled to receive up to $10,000 per year for contribution, up to the maximum U.S. Federal amount, to his Individual Retirement Account.  Further, in addition to standard benefits, the Company agreed to compensate Mr. Toevs for annual home office costs (equipment, supplies, telecommunication costs) in the amount of USD$3,600, fees for fiscal year-end tax preparation and personal financial planning/investment advice in the amount of USD$1,000, annual mobile phone and plan expenses in the amount of USD$2,400, and vehicle expenses (combined lease expense, gas and maintenance) in the annual amount of USD$24,000.  In the event of termination of Mr. Toevs’ employment by the Company without cause or Mr. Toevs for good reason (as described in the agreement), the Company agreed to pay Mr. Toevs, in addition to all other compensation which he would be due, six months of salary under the agreement as severance pay (or such lesser amount of months then left on the term), unless such termination is due to a change of control, at which time Mr. Toevs will be due 12 months of salary.  Pursuant to the agreement, Mr. Tran agreed to not compete against the Company for a period of one year following the termination of the agreement and to not solicit employees of the Company for two years following the termination of the agreement.

Except as set forth in our discussion below in “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions,” none of our directors or executive officers has been involved in any transactions with us or any of our directors, executive officers, affiliates or associates which are required to be disclosed pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Code of Ethics
 
Effective October 1, 2008, our Company’s Board of Directors adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to, among other persons, our officers and directors. We have posted the text of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics on our Internet website at www.jamminjavacoffee.com and have filed it with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on May 17, 2011 as Exhibit 14.1 to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. A copy of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics can also be obtained free of charge by writing to Anh Tran, Jammin Java Corp., 8200 Wilshire Blvd., Suite 200, Beverly Hills, CA 90211.
 
Independence of Directors

We are not required to have independent members of our Board of Directors, and do not anticipate having independent directors until such time as we are required to do so.

Committees of the Board

Our Company currently does not have nominating, compensation or audit committees or committees performing similar functions, nor does our Company have a written nominating, compensation or audit committee charter. Our directors believe that it is not necessary to have such committees, at this time, because the functions of such committees can be adequately performed by our Board of Directors.

Our Company does not have any defined policy or procedural requirements for shareholders to submit recommendations or nominations for directors. The directors believe that, given the stage of our development, a specific nominating policy would be premature and of little assistance until our business operations develop to a more advanced level. Our Company does not currently have any specific or minimum criteria for the election of nominees to the Board of Directors and we do not have any specific process or procedure for evaluating such nominees. The directors will assess all candidates, whether submitted by management or shareholders, and make recommendations for election or appointment.

A shareholder who wishes to communicate with our Board of Directors may do so by directing a written request addressed to our President, at the address appearing on the first page of this report.

Corporate Governance
 
The Company promotes accountability for adherence to honest and ethical conduct; endeavors to provide full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and in other public communications made by the Company and strives to be compliant with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations.
 
 
33

 
In lieu of an Audit Committee, the Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for reviewing and making recommendations concerning the selection of outside auditors, reviewing the scope, results and effectiveness of the annual audit of the Company's financial statements and other services provided by the Company’s independent public accountants. The Board of Directors reviews the Company's internal accounting controls, practices and policies.

Risk Oversight

Effective risk oversight is an important priority of the directors. Because risks are considered in virtually every business decision, the directors discuss risk throughout the year generally or in connection with specific proposed actions. The directors’ approach to risk oversight includes understanding the critical risks in the Company’s business and strategy, evaluating the Company’s risk management processes, allocating responsibilities for risk oversight, and fostering an appropriate culture of integrity and compliance with legal responsibilities. The directors exercise direct oversight of strategic risks to the Company.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Compliance
 
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) requires our executive officers and directors and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of our common stock to file reports of their ownership of, and transactions in, our common stock with the SEC and to furnish us with copies of the reports they file. Based solely upon our review of the Section 16(a) filings that have been furnished to us, we believe that all filings required to be made under Section 16(a) during fiscal 2013 and 2012 were timely made, except that:

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
 
Executive Compensation Philosophy
 
Our Board of Directors determines the compensation given to our executive officers in its sole determination. Our Board of Directors also reserves the right to pay our executives a salary, and/or issue them shares of common stock in consideration for services rendered and/or to award incentive bonuses which are linked to our performance, as well as to the individual executive officer’s performance. This package may also include long-term stock based compensation to certain executives which is intended to align the performance of our executives with our long-term business strategies.
 
Incentive Bonus
 
The Board of Directors may grant incentive bonuses to our executive officers in its sole discretion, if the Board of Directors believes such bonuses are in the Company’s best interest, after analyzing our current business objectives and growth, if any, and the amount of revenue we are able to generate each month, which revenue is a direct result of the actions and ability of such executives.
 
Long-term, Stock Based Compensation
 
In order to attract, retain and motivate executive talent necessary to support the Company’s long-term business strategy we may award certain executives with long-term, stock-based compensation in the future, in the sole discretion of our Board of Directors.
 
Criteria for Compensation Levels
 
The Company seeks to attract and retain qualified executives and employees to positively contribute to the success of the Company for the benefit of its various stakeholders, the most important of which is its shareholders, but also including its officers, employees, and the communities in which the Company operates.
 
The Board of Directors (in establishing compensation levels for the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, if any) and the Company (in establishing compensation levels for other executives, if any) may consider many factors, including, but not limited to, the individual’s abilities and performance that results in: the advancement of corporate goals of the Company, execution of the Company’s business strategies, contributions to positive financial results, and contributions to the development of the management team and other employees. In determining compensation levels, the Board of Directors may also consider the experience level of each particular individual and/or the compensation level of executives in similarly situated companies in our industry.
 
 
38

 
Compensation levels for executive officers are generally reviewed annually, but may be reviewed more often as deemed appropriate.
 
Compensation Philosophy and Strategy
 
In addition to the “Criteria for Compensation Levels” set forth above, the Company has a “Compensation Philosophy” for all employees of the Company (set forth below).
 
Compensation Philosophy
 
The Company’s compensation philosophy is as follows:
 
 
The Company believes that compensation is an integral component of its overall business and human resource strategies. The Company’s compensation plans will strive to promote the hiring and retention of personnel necessary to execute the Company’s business strategies and achieve its business objectives.

 
The Company’s compensation plans will be strategy-focused, competitive, and recognize and reward individual and group contributions and results. The Company’s compensation plans will strive to promote an alignment of the interests of employees with the interests of the shareholders by having a portion of compensation based on financial results and actions that will generate future shareholder value.

 
In order to reward financial performance over time, the Company’s compensation programs generally will consist of base compensation, and may also consist of short-term variable incentives and long-term variable incentives, as appropriate.

 
The Company’s compensation plans will be administered consistently and fairly to promote equal opportunities for the Company’s employees.
 
 
ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS.
 
The following table sets forth, as of May 14, 2013, the number and percentage of outstanding shares of our common stock beneficially owned by: (a) each person who is known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our outstanding shares of common stock; (b) each of our directors; (c) the Named Executive Officers; and (d) all current directors and executive officers, as a group. As of May 14, 2013, there were 86,235,122 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.
 
Beneficial ownership has been determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act. Under this rule, certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire shares (for example, upon exercise of an option or warrant) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares is deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially owned by such person by reason of such acquisition rights. As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares of any person as shown in the following table does not necessarily reflect the person’s actual voting power at any particular date.
 
To our knowledge, except as indicated in the footnotes to this table and pursuant to applicable community property laws, the persons named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock shown as beneficially owned by them.

(7) On March 6, 2012, IV and the Company settled $1,017,744 in accounts payable purchased by IV, in exchange for shares of common stock. Pursuant to an order approving stipulation for settlement of claims between IV and the Company, IV is entitled to receive that number of shares with an aggregate value equal to the debt amount plus reasonable attorney fees, divided by 80% of the following: the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date prior to entry of the order, not to exceed the arithmetic average of the volume weighted average prices of any five trading days during a period equal to that number of consecutive trading days following the date of initial receipt of shares required for the aggregate trading volume to exceed $10 million less $0.01 per share, as reported by the Bloomberg Professional service of Bloomberg LP. IV is prohibited from receiving any shares of common stock that would cause it to be deemed to beneficially own more than 9.99% of the Company’s total outstanding shares at any one time. IV received an initial issuance of common shares just under this amount (7,000,000 shares), and may be required to return or be entitled to receive additional shares, based on the calculation summarized above.  However, for so long as IV holds any shares, it is prohibited from, among other actions: (1) voting any shares of the Company’s common stock owned or controlled by them, exercising any dissenter’s rights, executing or soliciting any proxies or seeking to advise or influence any person with respect to any voting securities of the Company; (2) engaging or participating in any actions or plans that relate to or would result in, among other things, (a) acquiring additional securities of the Company, alone or together with any other person, which would result in them collectively beneficially owning or controlling, or being deemed to beneficially own or control, more than 9.99% of the total outstanding common stock or other voting securities of the Company, (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets, (d) changes in the present Board of Directors or management of the Company, (e) material changes in the capitalization or dividend policy of the Company, (f) any other material change in the Company’s business or corporate structure, (g) actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Company by any person or entity, (h) causing a class of securities of the Company to be delisted, (i) causing a class of equity securities of the Company to become eligible for termination of registration; or (3) any actions similar to the foregoing.

The following sets forth a summary of transactions since the beginning of the fiscal year of 2012, or any currently proposed transaction, in which the Company was to be a participant and the amount involved exceeded or exceeds $120,000, one percent of the average of the Company’s total assets at the year-end for 2013 and 2012, and in which any related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest (other than compensation described under “Executive Compensation”).

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Jammin Java Corp. (the “Company”) as of January 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.  

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit 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 also 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Jammin Java Corp as of January 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 under "Basis of Presentation," the Company has incurred operating losses from inception, has an accumulated deficit approximating $7,058,000, and has only recently generated revenues from its principal operations. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1 to the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

JAMMIN JAVA CORP.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
January 31, 2013 and 2012
 
NOTE 1—NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Jammin Java Corp. (the “Company” or “Jammin Java”), operates as a United States (U.S.) based company providing premium roasted coffee on a wholesale level to the grocery, retail, online, service, hospitality, office coffee service and big box store industry. Through the use of our roaster distributor relationships, we have the exclusive right to manufacture and market our coffee lines to gourmet, natural and independent grocery markets in the U.S., Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean and the non-exclusive right worldwide.
 
As used in this Annual Report, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” and “Company” mean Jammin Java Corp., unless otherwise indicated. All dollar amounts in these financial statements are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated.
 
Jammin Java was incorporated on September 27, 2004 in Nevada under its former name “Global Electronic Recovery Corp.” On October 23, 2007, our Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved a 22.723829 for one (1) forward stock split of our authorized, issued and outstanding shares of common stock (the “2007 Forward Split”) and amended our Articles of Incorporation by the filing of a Certificate of Change with the Secretary of State of Nevada on September 11, 2007. As a result of the 2007 Forward Split, our authorized capital increased from 75,000,000 to 1,704,287,175 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 each.
 
On February 5, 2008, we incorporated a subsidiary named Marley Coffee Inc. On February 25, 2008, we changed our name from “Global Electronic Recovery Corp.” to “Marley Coffee Inc.” when we merged our subsidiary, Marley Coffee Inc., into our Company. Effective July 13, 2009, we formed and merged our then newly-formed subsidiary, Jammin Java Corp., into our Company and changed our name from “Marley Coffee Inc.” to “Jammin Java Corp.” Our common stock has, since September 17, 2009, been quoted on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”) or the OTCQB market under the symbol “JAMN.”
 
On January 10, 2010, the Board approved a three (3) for one (1) forward stock split of our authorized, issued and outstanding shares of common stock (the “2010 Forward Split” and, collectively with the 2007 Forward Split, the “Stock Splits”). We amended our Articles of Incorporation by the filing of a Certificate of Change with the Nevada Secretary of State, effective on February 2, 2010. As a result, our authorized capital increased from 1,704,287,175 to 5,112,861,525 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 each.
 
Unless otherwise stated, the shares of common stock disclosed throughout these financial statements have been retroactively reflected for the Stock Splits.
 
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. The summary of our significant accounting policies presented below is designed to assist the reader in understanding our financial statements. Such financial statements and related notes are the representations of our management, who are responsible for their integrity and objectivity. In the opinion of management, these accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) in all material respects, and have been consistently applied in preparing the accompanying financial statements.

Basis of Presentation. These financial statements have been prepared by management assuming that the Company will be able to continue as a going concern and realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. However, certain conditions noted below currently exist which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
The Company has incurred a net loss of $4,017,953 and $2,466,039 for the years ended January 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively and has an accumulated deficit of $7,058,818 at January 31, 2013. In addition to the Company’s recent history of losses, the Company has recently begun to generate revenue as part of its principal operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Further, the operations of the Company have primarily been funded by the issuance of common stock and debt.  In order for us to conduct our business for the next twelve months and to continue operations thereafter and be able to discharge our liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business, we must increase sales, reduce operating expenses, and potentially raise additional funds, through either debt and/or equity financing to meet our working capital needs. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available, or if available, will be on terms acceptable to the Company. If adequate working capital is not available, the Company may be required to curtail its operations.

If we become unable to continue as a going concern, we may have to liquidate our assets, and might realize significantly less than the values at which our net assets are carried on our financial statements, and stockholders may lose all or part of their investment in our common stock. The accompanying financial statements do not reflect any adjustments related to the outcome of this uncertainty.
 
Reclassifications. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation for comparative purposes.  
 
Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, as well as certain financial statement disclosures. Certain accounting principles require subjective and complex judgments to be used in the preparation of financial statements. Accordingly, a different financial presentation could result depending on the judgments, estimates, or assumptions that are used. Such estimates and assumptions include, but are not specifically limited to, those required in the assessment of the impairment of long-lived assets, the allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation allowances for deferred tax assets, and valuation of our derivatives and financial and equity instruments. While management believes that the estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of the financial statements are appropriate, actual results could differ from these estimates.
 
 
F - 7

 
Development Stage. As of the second quarter of fiscal year 2012, the Company was no longer deemed a development stage enterprise because the Company is generating revenue from its planned principal operations and has obtained capital to conduct such operations. Accordingly, the Company no longer presents its results of operations and cash flows from inception.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments. The carrying amount of the Company’s cash, accounts receivables, accounts payables, and accrued expenses approximates their estimated fair values due to the short-term maturities of those financial instruments.

The Company has adopted a single definition of fair value, a framework for measuring fair value, and providing expanded disclosures concerning fair value whereby estimated fair value is the price to be paid for an asset or the amount to settle a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Accordingly, fair value is a market-based measurement and not an entity-specific measurement.
 
The Company utilizes the following hierarchy in fair value measurements:
 
 
·
Level 1 – Inputs use quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.
 
·
Level 2 – Inputs use other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets as well as other inputs such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.
 
·
Level 3 – Inputs are unobservable inputs, including inputs that are available in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the related asset or liability.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At January 31, 2013, the Company has no cash equivalents. During the year, the Company invested  funds in money market accounts  with an average market yield of 0.05%.
 
Restricted Cash.  Cash held by the Company which pursuant to certain debt agreements is not available for general operating purposes is classified as restricted cash. Restricted cash at January 31, 2013 totaled approximately $65,000.  
 
Concentrations of Credit Risk. Our cash and cash equivalents are principally on deposit in a non-insured short-term asset management account at a large financial institution. Accounts receivable potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk. Currently, our customer base is comprised of a few number of customers (see Note 10). We generally do not require collateral for accounts receivable. When required, we maintain allowances for credit losses, and to date such losses have been within management’s expectations. Once a specific account receivable has been reserved for as potentially uncollectible, our policy is to continue to pursue collections for a period of up to one year prior to recording a receivable write-off.
 
Revenue Recognition. Revenue is derived from the sale of coffee products and is recognized on a gross basis upon shipment to the customer. All revenue is recognized when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) the service or sale is completed; (iii) the price is fixed or determinable; and (iv) the ability to collect is reasonably assured.
 
The Company utilizes third parties for the production and fulfillment of orders placed by customers. The Company, acting as principal, takes title to the product and assumes the risks of ownership; namely, the risks of loss for collection, delivery and returns.
 
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts.  The Company does not require collateral from its customers with respect to accounts receivable. The Company determines any required allowance by considering a number of factors, including the terms for each customer, and the length of time accounts receivable are outstanding. Management provides an allowance for accounts receivable whenever it is evident that they become uncollectible. The Company has determined that no allowance for doubtful accounts was required at January 31, 2013 and 2012.   Because our accounts receivable are concentrated in a relatively few number of customers, a significant change in the liquidity or financial position of any one of these customers could have a material adverse effect on the collectability of our accounts receivable and our future operating results.
 
Property and Equipment. Equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Maintenance and repairs, as incurred, are charged to expense. Renewals and betterments which extend the life or improve existing equipment are capitalized. Upon disposition or retirement of equipment, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are three years.
 
Our property and equipment is summarized as follows:
 
    January 31, 2013     January 31, 2012  
             
Equipment   $  13,400     $  -  
Computers     14,418       11,689  
       27,818        11,689  
                 
Less Accumulated depreciation     8,113       1,786  
    $ 19,705     $ 9,903  
 
Depreciation expense was $6,327 and $2,341 for the years ended January 31, 2013 and 2012 respectively.
 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. Long-lived assets consist of a license agreement that was recorded at the estimated cost to acquire the asset (See Note 2). The license agreement is reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Determination of recoverability is based on an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows resulting from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. In the event that such cash flows are not expected to be sufficient to recover the carrying amount of the assets, the assets are written down to their estimated fair values. Management evaluated the carrying value of the license and determined that no impairment existed at January 31, 2013 or 2012.
 
 
F - 8

 
 
Stock-Based Compensation.   Pursuant to the provisions of FASB ASC 718-10, “Compensation – Stock Compensation,” which establishes accounting for equity instruments exchanged for employee service, management utilizies the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of employee stock option awards at the date of grant, which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including expected volatility and expected life. Changes in these inputs and assumptions can materially affect the measure of estimated fair value of our share-based compensation. These assumptions are subjective and generally require significant analysis and judgment to develop. When estimating fair value, some of the assumptions will be based on, or determined from, external data and other assumptions may be derived from our historical experience with stock-based payment arrangements. The appropriate weight to place on historical experience is a matter of judgment, based on relevant facts and circumstances.  
 
Common stock issued for services to non-employees is recorded based on the value of the services or the value of the common stock whichever is more clearly determinable. Whenever the value of the services is not determinable, the measurement date occurs generally at the date of issuance of the stock. In more limited cases, it occurs when a commitment for performance has been reached with the counterparty and nonperformance is subject to significant disincentives.  If the total value of stock issued exceeds the par value, the value in excess of the par value is added to the additional paid-in-capital.
We estimate volatility of our publicly-listed common stock by considering historical stock volatility.
 
Income Taxes. The Company follows Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification No 740, Income Taxes .
 
The Company records deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and on net operating loss carry forwards using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized.
 
Earnings or Loss Per Common Share. Basic earnings per common share equal net earnings or loss divided by the weighted average of shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share include the impact on dilution from all contingently issuable shares, including options, warrants and convertible securities. The common stock equivalents from contingent shares are determined by the treasury stock method. The Company incurred a net loss for the years ended January 31, 2013 and 2012 respectively and therefore, basic and diluted earnings per share for those periods are the same because all potential common equivalent shares would be anti-dilutive.  Anti-dilutive shares include 400,000 options for fiscal year 2013 and 100,000 options for the fiscal year ended 2012.
 
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements. Accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB or other standards setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are being evaluated by the Company to determine whether adoption will have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
 
Subsequent Events. Management has evaluated events subsequent to January 31, 2013 through the date the accompanying consolidated financial statements were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for transactions and other events that may require adjustment of and/or disclosure in such financial statements.

NOTE 2 – LICENSE AGREEMENTS
 
On March 31, 2010, the Company obtained a sub-license agreement (the “Agreement”) with MCL, a private limited liability company of which Rohan Marley, a Director of the Company, and his family have a combined controlling interest as more fully described below.

2010 MCL Trademark License Agreement
 
Fifty-Six Hope Road Music Limited, a Bahamas international business company (“Fifty-Six Hope Road”) owns and controls the intellectual property rights, including the “Marley Coffee” trademarks relating to the late reggae performer, Robert Nesta Marley, professionally known as Bob Marley (the “Trademarks”). On March 31, 2010, Fifty-Six Hope Road and Marley Coffee, LLC, a private limited company (“MCL”) entered into an agreement which granted to MCL the exclusive, oral, terminable license to use the Trademarks and granted to the Company an exclusive, terminable, sublicense to use the Trademark.
 
On March 31, 2010, MCL entered into the Agreement with the Company, effective March 30, 2010, pursuant to which it sublicensed the use of the Trademarks to the Company (the “MCL Trademarks License Agreement”). Rohan Marley, a director of the Company, also serves as the managing member of MCL and is the beneficial owner of one-third of MCL’s membership interests.
 
The consideration for the MCL Trademarks License Agreement was as follows:
 
 
(1)
The Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement to sell all its interests in its Branding Development and Business Plan Development to MCL;
 
 
 
(2)
The Company assigned the Farm Lease Agreement that it had previously entered into with Rohan Marley relating to farm land located in Jamaica and all of the related leasehold improvements to MCL; and
 
 
 
(3)
The Company agreed to issue to MCL 10 million shares of the Company’s common stock as follows:

 
1 million shares upon the execution of the MCL Trademark License Agreement on March 31, 2010; and;

 
1 million shares on each anniversary of the execution of the MCL Trademark License Agreement for the following nine years through March 31, 2019.
 
In accordance with FASB ASC 505-25- “Share-Based payments to Non Employees,” management recorded the transaction based on the estimated fair value of the perpetual license at the measurement date of March 31, 2010 totaling $766,000, (the date when the Trademarks and its underlying rights were granted to the Company and when MCL’s performance was completed).
 
 
F - 10

 
 
On August 5, 2011, the parties expanded the scope of the MCL Trademarks License Agreement in favor of the Company by an amendment in consideration for the Company assuming $126,000 in additional obligations of MCL. As part of the Agreement, the Company had issued 2,000,000 shares of its common stock.
 
On September 13, 2012, the MCL Agreement was replaced and superseded with the 2012 Trademarks License Agreement with Fifty-Six Hope Road more fully described below. The MCL Termination Agreement provided that all of the Company’s obligations under the MCL Agreement were terminated except for the Company’s obligations to: (i) issue to MCL the 1 million shares of its common stock which were due to MCL on March 31, 2012 (which obligation has since been forgiven); and (ii) repay its remaining outstanding debt obligation $19,715 in monthly installments, the final installment paid in February 2013.
 
2012 Trademarks License Agreement
 
On September 13, 2012, the Company entered into a new trademark license agreement with Fifty-Six Hope Road which superseded and replaced the MCL Trademarks License Agreement (the “2012 Trademarks License Agreement”), with an effective date of August 7, 2012. Pursuant to the 2012 Trademarks License Agreement, Fifty-Six Hope Road granted to the Company a worldwide, exclusive, non-transferable license to utilize the Trademarks in connection with (i) the manufacturing, advertising, promotion, sale, offering for sale and distribution of coffee in all its forms and derivations, regardless of portions sizes or packaging (the “Exclusive Licensed Products”) and (ii) coffee roasting services, coffee production services and coffee sales, supply, distribution and support services, provided however that the Company may not open retail coffee houses under the Trademarks. In addition, Fifty Six Hope Road granted the Company the right to use the Trademarks on advertising and promotional materials that pertain solely to the sale of coffee cups, coffee mugs, coffee glasses, saucers, milk steamers, machines for brewing coffee, espresso and/or cappuccino, grinders, water treatment products, tea products, chocolate products, and ready-to-use (instant) coffee products (the “Non-Exclusive Licensed Products”, and together with the Exclusive Licensed Products, the “Licensed Products”). The Licensed Products may be sold by the Company pursuant to the 2012 Trademarks License Agreement through all channels of distribution, provided that, subject to certain exceptions, the Company cannot sell the Licensed Products by direct marketing methods (other than the Company’s website), including television, infomercials or direct mail without the prior written consent of Fifty-Six Hope Road.  The 2012 Trademarks Lincense Agreement has a 15 year term and provides two renewal periods of 15 years at the discretion of the Company.  In return, the Company agreed to pay royalties to Fifty-Six Hope Road in an amount equal to 3% of the net sales of all Licensed Products. In addition, such royalty payments are to be deferred during the first 20 months of the term of the 2012 Trademarks License Agreement, and such deferred payments shall be paid on a quarterly-basis thereafter. At January 31, 2013, $30,073 has been accrued for such royalty fees and is included in Accrued expenses – related party in the Balance Sheet.

On July 13, 2006, the FASB issued FIN 48, subsequently codified in ASC 740, Income Taxes, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity's financial statements, and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributes for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, the impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return must be recognized at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. Additionally, ASC 740 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. ASC 740 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006.
 
 
F - 14

 
We follow the provisions of ASC 740 relating to uncertain tax provisions and have commenced analyzing filing positions in all of the federal and state jurisdictions where we are required to file income tax returns, as well as all open tax years in these jurisdictions. As a result of adoption, no additional tax liabilities have been recorded. There are no unrecognized tax benefits as of January 31, 2013 or January 31, 2012.
 
NOTE 7 – AGREEMENTS

On August 1, 2012, the Company entered into an Investment Agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) with Fairhills Capital. The Investment Agreement provided that from time to time in our sole discretion, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Investment Agreement, the Company could deliver a notice of a put (“Put Notice”) to Fairhills Capital and require Fairhills Capital to purchase a number of shares of common stock equal to a maximum of 200% of the average daily volume of our common stock for the 10 trading days prior to the applicable Put Notice. The purchase price per share to be paid by Fairhills Capital was to be calculated at a 20% discount to the average of the three lowest bid prices during the 10 trading days immediately prior to Fairhills Capital’s receipt of the Put Notice.
 
In connection with the Investment Agreement, the Company and Fairhills Capital entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (“Registration Rights Agreement”). Under the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company agreed to use our commercially reasonable efforts to (a) file, within 21 days of the date of the Investment Agreement, a Registration Statement on Form S-1 covering the resale of the common stock subject to the Investment Agreement, and (b) to have the Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC within 120 calendar days after the date of the Registration Rights Agreement.
 
In addition to the Investment Agreement, on August 1, 2012, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with Fairhills Capital pursuant to which Fairhills Capital purchased 625,000 shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $0.12 per share and an aggregate purchase price of $75,000 (the “SPA Shares”). The purchase of the SPA Shares was affected in two closings of 312,500 shares each, with the first closing on August 1, 2012 and the second closing occurring on or around November 30, 2012 (provided that Fairhills Capital assigned its right to purchase the second tranche of shares and its rights to the first tranche of shares purchased, to its affiliate, Deer Valley Management, LLC). Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to (i) register the SPA Shares with the SEC and (ii) provide price protection for the SPA Shares. The Company agreed to issue the holder of the SPA Shares, additional shares of our common stock on the earlier of the (a) the date on which the SEC declared the SPA Registration Statement effective (provided that such Registration Statement has since been withdrawn as discussed below); and (b) such time as the SPA Shares can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act, such that the total value of the SPA Shares and any additional shares issuable on such date total $75,000 in value, based on a 20% discount to the then trading price of our common stock.
 
On October 9, 2012, the Company filed a Form S-1 Registration Statement with the SEC covering 16,000,000 shares of our common stock relating to certain “put notices” pursuant to the Investment Agreement and 315,500 of the SPA Shares.  In March 2013, the Company and Fairhills Capital agreed to terminate the Investment Agreement and the Registration Rights agreement and the Company withdrew the Form S-1 Registration Statement filing.  Due to the termination of the Investment Agreement and the withdrawal of the Registration Statement, the Company will not be able to raise any funds or sell any securities in connection with the Investment Agreement moving forward.
 
In connection with the purchase of the SPA Shares, on each of August 24, 2012 and November 30, 2012, the Company paid to Kashwise Investments, as its consultant, a cash fee in the aggregate amount of $1,125 and 23,438 shares of common stock for advisory services in connection with the Investment Agreement.

NOTE 8 – NOTE PAYABLE - RELATED PARTY

The Company entered into the License Agreement with MCL, a private limited liability company of which (i) Rohan Marley, one of the Company’s directors, has a 33% ownership interest (and collectively with his family, has a controlling interest) and serves as a Manager, and (ii) Shane Whittle, a former chief executive officer and director of the Company, has a 29% ownership interest and serves as a Manager. In consideration for the License Agreement Amendment, the Company agreed to assume $126,000 of obligations by paying MCL $55,000, with the balance being paid, with no interest, in equal monthly installments over a period of eighteen months. The balance payable (reflected as Notes payable in the accompanying balance sheet) at January 31, 2013 is $11,825.

NOTE 9 – NOTE PAYABLE
 
On July 19, 2012, the Company entered into a credit agreement with TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP, a Cayman Islands limited partnership (“TCA”), effective June 29, 2012 (the “Credit Agreement”). Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, TCA agreed to loan the Company up to $2 million for working capital purposes, based on the amount of eligible accounts receivable the Company provides to secure the repayment of the amounts borrowed.
 
On July 19, 2012, the Company borrowed $350,000 pursuant to the Credit Agreement, evidenced by a revolving note (the “Revolving Note”), the repayment of which was secured by a security interest in substantially all of our assets in favor of TCA, including the Trademarks. The Revolving Note accrued interest at the rate of 12% per annum (18% per annum upon a default) and was due and payable on July 18, 2013. After cash expenses, but not counting the cost of the Fee Facility Shares discussed below, the Company’s net amount of cash received at the closing on July 19, 2012 was $292,425 (the “Initial Funding”).
 
Upon an event of default under the Credit Agreement or the Revolving Note, TCA had the right to convert all or any portion of the outstanding principal, interest and all other amounts due under the Revolving Note into shares of our common stock at a conversion price equal to 85% of the lowest daily volume weighted average price during the five (5) trading days immediately prior to the conversion date, in each case subject to TCA not being able to beneficially own more than 4.99% of outstanding common stock upon any conversion. Because the conversion feature of the Revolving Note required the Company to issue a variable number of shares for settlement, the Revolving Note was deemed to be a derivative liability and reflected as debt on the Company’s balance sheet with an original discount valued at $59,850, under the caption “Liabilities and Stockholders’ Equity – Current Liabilities – Secured promissory note – net of discount of $29,925 and $0, respectively”.
 
The Company also agreed to pay TCA various fees during the term of the Credit Agreement, including a fee of $100,000, payable in shares of our common stock (initially equal to 588,235 shares of common stock) (the “Fee Facility Shares”).  The number of Fee Facility Shares are adjusted upon the earlier of (i) the date that all Fee Facility Shares are sold or (ii) 12 months after the Initial Funding, such that the total value realized by TCA in connection with the sale of the Fee Facility Shares is equal to $100,000.   The Facility Fee is reflected on the Balance Sheet under the line item “Deferred financing costs” and is amortized over the term of the loan. The unamortized balance at January 31, 2013 is $43,490. The Fee Facility Shares are carried as a derivative liability so long as the Company is obligated to redeem the shares in cash. At each reporting period the Company evaluates its obligation and adjusts the liability as needed.
 
During the term of the Credit Agreement, the Company was prohibited from (i) incurring any indebtedness (other than in connection with the Credit Agreement or as otherwise approved by TCA); (ii) making any new investments, creating any encumbrances on our assets, permitting a change in control of the Company, issuing any shares of common stock (other than as otherwise approved by TCA and/or in connection with the issuance of up to 15% of our issued and outstanding common stock towards employee stock option plans or acquisitions); and (iii) affecting any transactions with affiliates of the Company or undertaking certain other actions as described in the Credit Agreement, except in the usual course of business.
 
 
F - 16

 
 
Subsequent to January 31, 2013 the Credit Agreement and Revolving Note were terminated in connection with the Stipulation described in Note 11, below, pursuant to which Ironridge purchased the outstanding debt, which we owed to TCA and also purchased $100,000 of outstanding liabilities relating to the Fee Facility Shares, which shares TCA will be returned to the Company for cancellation in May 2013.

The accounts payable and accrued expenses represented amounts originally owed by us to various creditors in connection with trade payables, the purchase of property and equipment, prior credit agreements, and attorneys’ fees.
 
The shares issued in the Initial Issuance are subject to adjustment as provided below:

From the date of the Stipulation until that number of consecutive trading days following the Issuance Date required for the aggregate trading volume of the Common Stock to exceed $10,000,000 (the “Calculation Period”), Ironridge will retain that number of shares of Common Stock of the Initial Issuance (the “Final Amount”) with an aggregate value equal to (a) $1,068,631 (105% of the Claim Amount), plus reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses, divided by (b) 80% of the following: the closing price of the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date of entry of the Order (which closing price was $0.35 per share), not to exceed the arithmetic average of the individual volume weighted average prices of any five trading days during the Calculation Period, less $0.01 per share (the “Share Price”).

 
·
If at any time during the Calculation Period the Initial Issuance is less than any reasonable possible Final Amount or a daily volume weighted average price is below 80% of the closing price on the day before the Issuance Date, Ironridge may request that the Company reserve and issue additional shares of Common Stock (the “True-Up Shares”) as soon as possible, and in any event, within one trading day. For each day after Ironridge requests issuance that shares are not, for any reason, received into Ironridge’s account in electronic form and fully cleared for trading, the Calculation Period shall be extended by one trading day.

 
·
At the end of the Calculation Period, if the sum of the Initial Issuance and any True-Up Shares does not equal the Final Amount, adjustments shall be made to the shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the Stipulation and either additional shares shall be issued to Ironridge or Ironridge shall return shares to the Company for cancellation.
 
The Stipulation provides that at no time shall shares of Common Stock be issued to Ironridge and its affiliates which would result in them owning or controlling more than 9.99% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock.  The Company also agreed pursuant to the Stipulation that (a) until at least one half of the total trading volume for the Calculation Period has traded, the Company would not, directly or indirectly, enter into or effect any split or reverse split of Common Stock; (b) until at least thirty days from the date the Order is approved, the Company would not, directly or indirectly, issue any securities pursuant to a Form S-8 registration statement; and (c) until at least six months from the date the Order is approved, the Company would not, directly or indirectly, issue or sell any free trading securities for financing purposes (except for shares issuable to TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP).

The result of the Order and Stipulation is that a total of $1,017,744 in accounts payable and accrued expenses owed by us to various parties, which was purchased by Ironridge will be satisfied by the issuance of shares of our common stock as provided above, will come off our balance sheet and will significantly improve our liquidity.
