Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2015
NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations. The information furnished in the interim consolidated financial statements includes normal recurring adjustments and reflects all adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements. Although management believes the disclosures and information presented are adequate to make the information not misleading, it is suggested that these interim consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015.
NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN CONSIDERATIONS
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The accumulated deficit as of September 30, 2015 was $60,446,680. The total stockholders’ deficit at September 30, 2015 was $7,760,999 and, as of that date, the Company had a working capital deficit (current liabilities minus current assets) of $7,760,999, resulting from continued losses and negative cash flows from operations. These factors combined, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans to address and alleviate these concerns are as follows:
The Company’s management continues to develop a strategy of exploring all options available to it so that it can develop successful operations and have sufficient funds, therefore, as to be able to operate over the next twelve months. The Company is attempting to improve these conditions by way of financial assistance through issuances of additional equity and by generating revenues through the sale of aircraft fuel and related services. No assurance can be given that funds will be available, or, if available, that it will be on terms deemed satisfactory to management.
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually attain profitable operations. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.
NOTE 3 - FUEL DEPOSITS
During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company deposited funds with certain fuel vendors in order to establish a “prepay” account that is used for the purchase of fuel. The balance in these fuel deposits at September 30, 2015 was $344,926.
NOTE 4 - NOTES PAYABLE
On September 24, 2015 the Company issued a promissory note for $9,482. The note is due on demand and bears interest at the rate of 10% per annum.

NOTE 5 - CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE/NOTES PAYABLE
Convertible debentures January 6, 2015
On January 6, 2015, the Company issued a $6,000 Convertible Promissory Note which bears interest at a rate of 8%, due on October 10, 2015 (in default) and is convertible into the Company’s common stock at the holder’s option, at the conversion rate of 50% of the average of the lowest three day trading price for twenty trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion.
The Company identified embedded derivatives related to the Convertible Promissory Note issued on January 6, 2015. These embedded derivatives included certain conversion features. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company record the fair value of these derivatives as of the inception date of the Convertible Promissory Note and to adjust the fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. At the inception of the Convertible Promissory Note, the Company determined a fair value of $11,520 of the embedded derivative. The fair value of the embedded derivative was determined using the Binomial Lattice Model based on the following assumptions:
| Dividend yield: | -0- | % | ||
| Volatility | 443.15 | % | ||
| Risk free rate: | 0.18 | % |
The initial fair value of the embedded debt derivative of $11,520 was allocated as a debt discount up to the proceeds of the note ($6,000) with the remainder ($5,520) charged to current period operations as interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2015. At September 30, 2015, the derivative liability was adjusted to fair value which resulted in an increase of the derivative liability in the amount of $5,372. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recorded amortization of debt discount in the amount of 5,805. The outstanding balance on the note as of September 30, 2015 is $6,000.
Convertible debenture May 20, 2015
On May 20, 2015 the Company issued a $15,000 Convertible Promissory Note which bears interest at a rate of 10%, due on demand and is convertible into the Company’s common stock at the maker’s option, at the conversion rate of 60% of the lowest trading price in the five days immediately preceding the date of conversion. Any amount of principal or interest on this Note which is not paid when due shall bear interest at the lesser of i) 10 percent (10%) per annum or ii) the maximum rate allowed under the applicable law until paid in full or until the Note is reinstated. Additionally in no event the floor price for the exercise can't go below $0.00004. If these notes are converted at this rate, the number of shares issued would be in excess of the authorized limit of share issuance. If the Borrower is unable to issue any shares under this provision due to the fact that there is an insufficient number of authorized and unissued shares available, the Holder promises not to force the Borrower to issue these shares or trigger an Event of Default, provided that Borrower takes immediate steps required to get the appropriate level of approval from shareholders or the board of directors, where applicable to raise the number of authorized shares to satisfy the Notice of Conversion. In the event of default the Company has to pay 150% time the sum of outstanding principal and accrued interest. The note also has prepayment penalty clause.
The Company analyzed the convertible debt for derivative accounting consideration under ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” and determined that derivative accounting is not applicable as the lender has agreed to not force the Company to issue the shares if there is an insufficient number of authorized and unissued shares available. The Company further analyzed the convertible debts for a beneficial conversion feature under ASC 470-20 on the date of the notes and determined that a beneficial conversion feature exists. The intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature was determined to be $15,000 and was recorded as debt discount. The outstanding balance as of September 30, 2015 is $15,000.

The Company identified embedded derivatives related to the Convertible Promissory Note issued on June 16, 2015. These embedded derivatives included certain conversion features. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company record the fair value of these derivatives as of the inception date of the Convertible Promissory Note and to adjust the fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. At the inception of the Convertible Promissory Note, the Company determined a fair value of $51,809 of the embedded derivative. The fair value of the embedded derivative was determined using the Binomial Lattice Model based on the following assumptions:
| Dividend yield: | -0- | % | ||
| Volatility | 563.68 | % | ||
| Risk free rate: | 0.28 | % |
The initial fair value of the embedded debt derivative of $51,809 was allocated as a debt discount up to the proceeds of the note ($31,500) with the remainder ($20,309) charged to current period operations as interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The outstanding balance as of September 30, 2015 is $31,500.
At September 30, 2015, the Company adjusted the recorded fair value of the derivative liability to market on the notes resulting in noncash, non-operating loss of $290,392 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 the Company amortized $65,478 and $1,176,353, respectively and $10,430 and $251,768, for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, of beneficial debt discount to the operations as interest expense.

NOTE 6 - CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE - RELATED PARTIES
Convertible debenture January 1, 2015
On January 1, 2015 the Company issued a $45,000 Convertible Promissory Note against accounts payable, which bears interest at a rate of 10%, payable on demand and is convertible into the Company’s common stock at the holder’s option at 40% discount to the lowest trading price in five days prior to date of notice of conversion. Additionally in no event the floor price for the exercise can't go below $0.00004. If these notes are converted at this rate, the number of shares issued would be in excess of the authorized limit of share issuance. If the Borrower is unable to issue any shares under this provision due to the fact that there is an insufficient number of authorized and unissued shares available, the Holder promises not to force the Borrower to issue these shares or trigger an Event of Default, provided that Borrower takes immediate steps required to get the appropriate level of approval from shareholders or the board of directors, where applicable to raise the number of authorized shares to satisfy the Notice of Conversion. In the event of default the Company has to pay 150% time the sum of outstanding principal and accrued interest. The note also has prepayment penalty clause.

NOTE 9 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable. The Company classifies fair value balances based on the observability of those inputs.
The following tables set forth by level within the fair value hierarchy the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. As required by ASC 820, a financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of fair value assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels. There were no transfers between fair value hierarchy levels for the periods ended September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, loans payable, and accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximate their fair market value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments. The following table presents assets and liabilities that are measured and recognized at fair value as of September 30, 2015 on a recurring basis:
Assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2015:
| Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Total | |||||||||||||
| Liabilities | ||||||||||||||||
| Derivative liability | — | — | $ | 718,291 | $ | 718,291 | ||||||||||
| Total | — | — | $ | 718,291 | $ | 718,291 | ||||||||||
The following table provides a summary of changes in fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial liabilities as of September 30, 2015:
| Debt Derivative Liability | ||||
| Balance, December 31, 2014 | $ | 372,939 | ||
| Initial fair value of debt derivatives at note issuances | 63,330 | |||
| Extinguished derivative liability | (8,370 | ) | ||
| Mark-to-market at September 30, 2015 - Embedded debt derivatives | 290,392 | |||
| Balance, September 30, 2015 | $ | 718,291 | ||
| Net loss for the period included in earnings relating to the liabilities held at September 30, 2015 | $ | 290,392 | ||
The carrying value of short term financial instruments including cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses and short-term borrowings approximate fair value due to the short period of maturity for these instruments. The long-term debentures payable approximates fair value since the related rates of interest approximate current market rates.

NOTE 10 - COMMON AND PREFERRED STOCK TRANSACTIONS
Preferred Stock
The Company is authorized to issue 200 preferred shares of $0.0001 par value. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 the Company has 200 shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding. Although the preferred stock carries no dividend, distribution, liquidation or conversion rights, each share of preferred stock carries ten million (10,000,000) votes and holders of our preferred stock are able to vote together with our common stockholders on all matters. Consequently, the holder of our preferred stock is able to unilaterally control the election of our board of directors and, ultimately, the direction of our Company.
Common stock
The Company is authorized to issue 2,500,000,000 shares of $0.0001 par value of common stock. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 the Company had 2,047,508 and 969,086 shares of common stock as issued and outstanding.
During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company granted 300,000 stock options with an exercise price of $1.65 out of which 75,000 were immediately vested. The fair value of the vested portion of $68,434 was charged to stock based compensation and additional paid in capital during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The options were forfeited effective July 1, 2015.
On December 8, 2014, our board of directors and the holder of a majority in interest of our voting capital stock approved a 1-for-2,000 reverse split of our common shares (“Reverse Split”). The Reverse Split became effective on April 6, 2015. As a result of the Reverse Split, each shareholder of record received one (1) share of common stock for each two thousand (2,000) shares of common stock they held prior to the Reverse Split, provided however, that fractions of a share were rounded up to the nearest whole share and any registered shareholder who would have otherwise held less than 200 shares following the Reverse Split was rounded up to 200 shares. Consequently, none of our registered shareholders as of the record date held less than 200 shares following the Reverse Split. This rounding up to 200 shares resulted in an additional 199,805 shares issued. These financial statements have been retroactively restated for this change in capital structure.
On June 22, 2015, the Company converted into 111,608 shares of common stock, $1,000 a portion of a certain convertible promissory note originally issued by the Company on January 21, 2014. The Company had previously recorded a derivative liability associated with this note. The result of the conversion reduced the derivative liability in the amount of $1,124.
On June 26, 2015, the Company converted into 124,070 shares of common stock, $1,000 a portion of a certain convertible promissory note originally issued by the Company on January 21, 2014. The Company had previously recorded a derivative liability associated with this note. The result of the conversion reduced the derivative liability in the amount of $3,624.
On June 30, 2015, the Company converted into 134,921 shares of common stock, $850 a portion of a certain convertible promissory note originally issued by the Company on January 21, 2014. The Company had previously recorded a derivative liability associated with this note. The result of the conversion reduced the derivative liability in the amount of $36.
On August 11, 2015, the Company converted into 153,595 shares of common stock, $470 a portion of a certain convertible promissory note originally issued by the Company on January 21, 2014. The Company had previously recorded a derivative liability associated with this note. The result of the conversion reduced the derivative liability in the amount of $384.

Due to rounding of adjustment for reverse stock split the Company issued 199,805 shares of common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2015.
NOTE 11 - OPTIONS
The Company has adopted FASB ASC 718, “Share-Based Payments” (“ASC 718”) to account for its stock options. The Company estimates the fair value of each stock award at the grant date by using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The assumptions used to calculate the fair value of options granted are evaluated and revised, as necessary, to reflect market conditions and our experience. Compensation expense is recognized only for those options expect to vest, with forfeitures estimated at the date of grant based on our historical experience and future expectations.
The following table summarizes the changes in options outstanding issued to employees of the Company:
| Number of Shares | Weighted Average Exercise Price | |||||||||
| Outstanding as of January 1, 2015 | 370,000 | $ | 1.34 | |||||||
| Granted | — | — | ||||||||
| Exercised | — | — | ||||||||
| Forfeited | (370,000 | ) | (1.34 | ) | ||||||
| Outstanding at September 30, 2015 | — | $ | — | |||||||
Effective July 1, 2015, all outstanding options were forfeited.
NOTE 12 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion of the financial condition and results of operations of Fuelstream, Inc. (hereafter, “Fuelstream,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited Financial Statements and related Notes thereto included herein. This discussion may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including, without limitation, statements regarding the Company’s expectations, beliefs, intentions, or future strategies that are signified by the words "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "believes," or similar language. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward looking statements. Prospective investors should carefully consider the information set forth herein, and the Company cautions investors that its business and financial performance is subject to substantial risks and uncertainties.
Overview
We are an in-wing and on-location supplier and distributor of aviation fuel to corporate, commercial, military, and privately-owned aircraft throughout the world. We also provide a variety of ground services either directly or through our affiliates, including concierge services, passenger and baggage handling, landing rights, coordination with local aviation authorities, aircraft maintenance services, catering, cabin cleaning, customs approvals, and third-party invoice reconciliation. Our personnel assist customers in flight planning and aircraft routing aircraft, obtaining permits, arranging overflies, and flight follow services.
The Company’s principal sources of revenues are derived the sale of fuel and related services. Expenses which comprise the costs of goods sold are expected to include the acquisition price of fuel transported, as well as operational and staffing costs of the trucks and other vehicles used for delivery. General and administrative expenses have been comprised of administrative wages and benefits; occupancy and office expenses; outside legal, accounting and other professional fees; travel and other miscellaneous office and administrative expenses. Selling and marketing expenses include selling/marketing wages and benefits; advertising and promotional expenses; travel and other miscellaneous related expenses.
The Company’s ability to generate revenues during the remainder of 2015 and beyond depends upon a variety of factors, including the Company’s ability to obtain financing and its ability to secure and keep customer accounts. Such efforts require significant systems development, administration, marketing and personnel costs, which, in turn, require substantial funding. If we are unable to obtain such funding, our ability to generate revenues will be significantly impaired and we may be unable to continue operations.
Because the Company has incurred losses, income tax expenses are immaterial. No tax benefits have been booked related to operating loss carryforwards, given the uncertainty of the Company being able to utilize such loss carryforwards in future years. We anticipate incurring additional losses during the coming year.
Results of Operations
Following is management’s discussion of the relevant items affecting results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.
Revenues. The Company generated net revenues of $115,517 during the three months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to $382,073 for the three months ended September 30, 2014. The Company generated net revenues of $115,517 during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to $639,661 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The decrease is mainly due to a change in the financing of fuel purchases. During 2014, the Company obtained financing through the issuance of convertible promissory notes. In 2015, the Company chose not to incur this type of debt. A line of credit secured at the

beginning of the 3rd quarter of 2015 has allowed the Company to purchase fuel and produce revenues. In the future, the Company’s sole source of revenue is expected to be related to fuel delivery contracts and associated services.
Cost of Sales. Cost of sales for the three months ended September 30, 2015 was $105,074 as compared to $313,476 for the three months ended September 30, 2014. Cost of sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $105,074 as compared to $534,371 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Our cost of sales consisted principally of the acquisition price of fuel and other petrochemicals delivered to customers and clients, other related services provided directly or outsourced through our affiliates, as well as operational and staffing costs with respect thereto.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2015 were $114,429 compared to $448,022 during the three months ended September 30, 2014. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 were $402,673 compared to $1,337,944 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The decrease is mainly the result of a decrease in the issuance of shares for compensation. The Company expects that salaries and consulting expenses, that are cash-based instead of share-based, will increase as we add personnel to build our business.
Other Income (Expense). The Company had net other expenses of $780,606 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to net other expenses of $739,386 during the three months ended September 30, 2014. The Company had net other expenses of $835,382 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to net other expenses of $1,706,719 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Other expenses incurred were comprised primarily of interest expenses related to notes payable including amortization of debt discount and offset with gain or loss on the change in the fair value of derivative liability and a gain on the conversion of debt. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, interest expense was $545,308 and $2,026,094, respectively. Included in interest expense was the amortization of debt discount of $65,478 and $1,176,353 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The gain (loss) on change in fair value of derivative liability was $(290,392) and $209,918 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Net Loss. The Company had a net loss of $884,592 and $1,227,612, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $1,227,612 and $2,939,373, respectively, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014. The decrease in net loss was mainly due to the decrease in overall expenses incurred by the Company.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2015, our primary source of liquidity consisted of $94,176 in cash and cash equivalents. We hold most of our cash reserves in local checking accounts with local financial institutions. Since inception, we have financed our operations through a combination of short and long-term loans, and through the private placement of our common stock. The Company used $475,617 and $256,399, respectively, in operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. Net cash provided by financing activities was $568,982 and $316,448, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.
We have sustained significant net losses which have resulted in a total stockholders’ deficit at September 30, 2015 of $7,760,999 and are currently experiencing a substantial shortfall in operating capital which raise doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We anticipate a net loss for the year ended December 31, 2015 and with the expected cash requirements for the coming months, without additional cash inflows from an increase in revenues combined with continued cost-cutting or a receipt of cash from capital investment, there is substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue operations. The Company’s
| 15 |
management continues to develop a strategy of exploring all options available to it so that it can develop successful operations and have sufficient funds, therefore, as to be able to operate over the next twelve months. The Company is attempting to improve these conditions by way of financial assistance through issuances of additional equity and by generating revenues by selling aircraft fuel and related services. No assurance can be given that funds will be available, or, if available, that it will be on terms deemed satisfactory to management.
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually attain profitable operations. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.
There is presently no agreement in place with any source of financing for working capital for the Company, and we cannot assure you that the Company will be able to raise any additional funds, or that such funds will be available on acceptable terms. Funds raised through future equity financing will likely be substantially dilutive to current shareholders. Lack of additional funds will materially affect the Company and its business, and may cause us to cease operations. Consequently, shareholders could incur a loss of their entire investment in the Company.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
Contractual Obligations
As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide this information.
Critical accounting policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported periods. The more critical accounting estimates include estimates related to revenue recognition and accounts receivable allowances. We also have other key accounting policies, which involve the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that are significant to understanding our results, which are described in Note 4 to our audited consolidated financial statements for 2014 appearing in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.
Recent accounting pronouncements
The recent accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
As a smaller reporting company we are not required to provide this information.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Management’s Evaluation on Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As of September 30, 2015, the end of our third quarter, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, we concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Our board of directors has only two members. We do not have a formal audit committee.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no significant changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2015 that have materially or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Ryan International Airlines. One of our subsidiaries, Aviation Fuel International ("AFI") is involved in disputes with two airlines: Ryan International Airlines, LLC ("Ryan") and Direct Air. Both aviation fuel customers litigation arise out of disputed amounts for the delivery of Jet Fuel. Ryan Air failed to pay for fuelings received from Aviation Fuel International, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“AFI”). AFI filed under the commercial lien laws as required to secure a lien on the planes fueled in order to protect their receivable due from Ryan. Disagreements between the parties resulted in both parties filing separate lawsuits in three actions. Ryan filed a cause of action in Case No. 09-57580, Ryan International Airlines, Inc. v. Aviation Flight Services, LLC (“AFS”) and Aviation Fuel International, Inc., (“AFI”), and sought recovery of $1,491,308.66 allegedly paid to AFS as pre-payment of aviation fuel and flight services under a contractual relationship between Ryan and AFS. AFI moved to dismiss the action, to which, Ryan has subsequently filed a notice of removal to the Federal District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Bankruptcy Division Case No.: 12-80802. AFI filed an action for breach of contract for Ryan’s failure to pay certain Jet Fuel invoices for the delivery of fuel in the amount of $678,000 plus interest; Aviation Fuel International v. Ryan International Airlines, Inc., a Kansas corporation, Wells Fargo Bank Northwest, Trustee N.A., a Utah corporation, RUBLOFF 757-MSN24794LLC, an Illinois limited liability company, RYAN 767 LLC, an Illinois limited liability company, AFT TRUST SUB I, a Delaware corporation, RYAN 767 N123 LLC, an Illinois limited liability company, and RUBLOFF 440 LLC, an Illinois corporation, Civil Action Case No. CACE 10-037788-04. AFI also filed the corresponding claims of liens under the FAA Aircraft Registration Branch, for each plane, registered and tail wing number listed therein. This action has also been recently noticed for been removal to the Federal District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Bankruptcy Division Case No.: 12-80802. In addition, as a result of Ryan’s filing a Federal Involuntary Bankruptcy Petition against Aviation Flight Services (“AFS”) on June 10, 2010, Case No.: 10-27313-JKO, (S.D. of Fla.), our subsidiary AFI, also filed and was discharged as a creditor in the amount of $269,000. However, the obligations for the unpaid fuelings owed to AFI still remain outstanding as obligations due to AFI.

Southern Sky Air Tours, d/b/a Myrtle Beach Direct Air and Tours (Direct Air). On or about March 13, 2012, Southern Sky Air Tours, d/b/a Myrtle Beach Direct Air and Tours (“Direct Air”) ― a public charter operator ― ceased operations. Direct Air has subsequently filed for bankruptcy protection in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Massachusetts (Worcester)(Case no. 12-40944). The Company currently has $122,000 in cash in escrow with Suntrust Bank, representing a partial payment by Direct Air for Fuel. This action is currently pending before the court, as it relates to the collection of the garnishment.
Russell Adler. On January 11, 2013, Russell Adler, our former Chief Executive Officer, filed a cross-complaint against the Company, AFI, and other associated persons in the Seventeenth Judicial District Court, Broward County, Florida. Mr. Adler’s complaint alleges various causes of action, including indemnification from the Company in respect of litigation described above, damages for breach of Mr. Adler’s employment contract, fraud, unpaid legal fees, unjust enrichment, and quantum meruit. We believe Mr. Adler’s claims are without merit and intend to defend the same.
As a result of the non-payment for Jet Fuel by AFI customers, AFI’s suppliers have filed actions that have resulted in judgment and garnishments, in the amount of $330,000. Most of these fuel outstanding fuel delivery charges are secured in the bankruptcy action involving Ryan as described above,through lien filings by both the issuer and individual fuel providers. In addition, AFI incurred certain loan and debt obligations for which the Company is attempting to convert into common stock of the issuer.
From time to time, we are also a party to certain legal proceedings incidental to the normal course of our business including the enforcement of our rights under contracts with purchasers and suppliers of fuel. While the outcome of these legal proceedings cannot at this time be predicted with certainty, we do not expect that these proceedings will have a material effect upon our financial condition or results of operations.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
On January 6, 2015, the Company issued a promissory note in the original principal amount of $6,000 (“Note”) to a lender. The Note matures on October 10, 2015 and carries an interest rate of 8% per annum. The Note shall at the maturity date, be due and payable in full unless converted partially or in its entirety upon the election of the lender into fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock of the Company at a 50% discount to the average of the three lowest daily trading prices as reported on the OTCQB for the twenty trading days previous to the conversion date.
On December 8, 2014, our board of directors and the holder of a majority in interest of our voting capital stock approved a 1-for-2,000 reverse split of our common shares (“Reverse Split”). The Reverse Split became effective on April 6, 2015. As a result of the Reverse Split, each shareholder of record received one (1) share of common stock for each two thousand (2,000) shares of common stock they held prior to the Reverse Split, provided however, that fractions of a share were rounded up to the nearest whole share and any registered shareholder who would have otherwise held less than 200 shares following the Reverse Split was rounded up to 200 shares. Consequently, none of our registered shareholders as of the record date held less than 200 shares following the Reverse Split. This rounding up to 200 shares resulted in an additional 199,805 shares issued. These financial statements have been retroactively restated for this change in capital structure.
On June 22, 2015, the Company converted into 111,608 shares of common stock, a portion of a certain convertible promissory note originally issued by the Company on January 21, 2014. The number of shares issued, at the time of such issuance, represented approximately 8.72% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company.
