You
should rely only on the information contained in this prospectus. We have not
authorized anyone to provide you with different information. This prospectus is
not an offer to sell securities in any state where the offer is not permitted.
You should not assume that the information contained in this prospectus is
accurate as of any date other than the date on the front cover of this
prospectus. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and
prospects may have changed since that date.
SUMMARY
The
following summary is not complete and does not contain all of the information
that may be important to you. You should read the entire prospectus before
making an investment decision to purchase our common stock. In this prospectus,
unless otherwise indicated, "we," "us," "our," and "the Company" refer to
DISTRIBUTION ROYALTY INC.
Who
We Are:
DISTRIBUTION
ROYALTY INC. (the "Company") was incorporated on April 22, 2010 in the state of
Nevada. We are an entertainment company that is engaged in the acquisition
of entertainment content to act as a licensing agent on behalf of copyright
owners. We plan to acquire the rights to license feature films film
scripts, and theatrical musicals. At the time of this offering the Company
has acquired the rights to the feature film script entitled THE CALL. It was
acquired on July31, 2010 from Let Fete Inc. a company wholly owned by the
principal of the Company, Mr. Stephen F. McKernan. Mr. McKernan wrote the
screenplay. Mr. Peter Tassi co-wrote the story and is entitled to 50% of
the acquisition cost to be paid by Le Fete. Inc. to Mr. Peter Tassi. The
rights to the script were purchased for an amount of $150,000 plus 5% of any
profits from the film. The Company issued a promissory note for
$150,000 dated July 31, 2010 and maturing on July 31, 2011 bearing simple
interest at the rate of 10% per annum. The company plans to license the feature
film rights to a film production company in order to pay the $150,000 due Le
Fete Inc. and potentially earn a profit from the licensing of the script to a
production company. At the time of this Offering no agreement with any
production company has been entered into.
6
The
Company will collect distribution fees from licensing fees paid from the use of
the entertainment content. The company will received a percentage of the overall
licensing fee or royalty paid by the licensee.
Going
Concern:
We are a
development stage company. We have no operating history. In their
2010 report, our accountants have expressed their doubt as to our ability to
continue as a going concern. At April 30, 2010, the Company had
$340 cash
and cash equivalents on hand and a net loss of $34,093. We will depend on
generating sufficient proceeds from this offering to fund our operations. The
40,000,000 shares offered by the Company in his offering is a self-underwritten,
best efforts basis, there is no minimum share purchase requirement and there is
no guarantee as to the amount of proceeds that will result from this offering,
if any. If we do not raise sufficient amount of funds from this offering
and/or subsequent private and public offerings, we might have to cease
operations.
Offices:
Our
principal executive offices are located at, DISTRIBUTION ROYALTY INC. 3753
Howard Hughes Parkway, Suite 200, Las Vegas, Nevada 89169. Our Phone Number is:
(702) 425-7825
THE
OFFFERING
The
Issuer: DISTRIBUTION ROYALTY INC., a Nevada corporation Securities Being
Offered: Up to 40,000,000 shares of Class “A” common stock (the "Shares") from
time to time on a delayed or continuous basis, 40,000,000 of which are being
offered by the Company.
Selling Stockholders:
None.
Offering
Price: The
offering price of the common stock is $0.01 per share. We have arbitrarily
established the offering price of the shares. The actual price of stock will be
determined by prevailing market prices at the time of sale or by private
transactions.
Minimum Number of Shares to Be
Sold: None
Common
Stock Outstanding Before And After Offering:
The sole
existing stockholder of our Company is Le Fete Inc., a corporation wholly owned
by the principal of the Company, Mr. Stephen F. McKernan. The shares of
common stock owned by Le Fete Inc. represent 32.78% of the issued and
outstanding Class “A” common stock of the Company. Le Fete Inc. purchased
the common shares at a price of $0.00001 per share at the time the Company was
incorporated. Le Fete Inc. also purchased 14,000,000 Class “B” Common
Shares for a price of $0.00001 per share. The Class “B” Common Shares are
multiple voting shares with each share having ten votes per share. The
Class “B” Common Shares may be exchanged for Class “A” common shares of the
Company under certain restrictions.
As of the
date of this prospectus, there are 20,000,000 shares of our Class “A” common
stock issued and outstanding. Assuming the sale of the 40,000,000 shares of
common stock being offered by the Company in this prospectus, there will be
60,000,000 shares of Class “A” common stock and 14,000,000 shares Class “B
common stock issued and outstanding.
Use of
Proceeds: If
we sell all of the 40,000,000 shares offered by the company,
we will receive $400,000 in gross proceeds. DISTRIBUTION ROYALTY INC.
expects the net proceeds from the sale of the shares will sustain its operations
for a period of twelve months. We intend to use the proceeds to operate the
Company and acquire entertainment content and act as the licensing agent for
such content.
Risk
Factors: See
"Risk Factors" and the other information in this prospectus for a discussion of
the factors you should consider before deciding to invest in shares of our
common stock.
7
RISK
FACTORS
You
should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below and the
other information in this prospectus. If any of the following risks actually
occur, our business, financial condition and operating results could be
materially adversely affected.
Going
Concern:
In their
2010 report, our accountants’ have expressed their doubt as to our ability
to continue as a going concern. At April 30, 2010, the Company had $340 in
cash and cash equivalents on hand and a net loss of $34,093. We will depend on
generating sufficient proceeds from this offering to fund our operations.
The 40,000,000 shares offered by the Company in his offering is a
self-underwritten, best efforts basis, there is no minimum share purchase
requirement and there is no guarantee as to the amount of proceeds that will
result from this offering, if any. The going concern opinion of the
auditors might negatively impact our ability to raise capital to fund our
operations or pursue our business strategy and your ability to sell your shares
of the Company's common stock. If we do not raise sufficient amount of
funds from this offering and/or subsequent private and public offerings, we
might have to cease operations.
You
may never realize a return on your investment.
THERE IS
NO ASSURANCE THAT A PURCHASER OF SHARES WILL REALIZE A RETURN ON HIS INVESTMENT
OR THAT HE WILL NOT LOSE HIS ENTIRE INVESTMENT IN THE COMPANY. To date, the
Company has limited operations and no revenues. We have never earned a profit
and there can be no assurance that we will ever achieve profitable operations.
Our ability to implement our business plan is dependent, among other things, on
the completion of this Offering. If we fail to raise any or a sufficient amount
of money in this offering, we may fail as a business. Even if we raise
sufficient amount of funding in this Offering, there can be no assurance that
our business model will succeed.
Current
conditions in the global markets and general economic pressures may adversely
affect consumer spending and our business and results of
operations.
Our
performance depends on the impact of economic conditions on levels of consumer
spending. As a result of the credit market crisis, coupled with declining
consumer and business confidence, recession worries, and other challenges
currently affecting the global economy, consumers are continuing to curb
discretionary spending, which is having an effect on our business. An extended
duration or deterioration in current economic conditions could have a further
material adverse impact on our financial condition and results of
operations.
Our
limited operating history will make it difficult to evaluate an investment in
our common stock.
DISTRIBUTION
ROYALTY INC. commenced operations in April of 2010, which may make it difficult
for you to evaluate our business and prospects based on prior performance.
Failure to raise adequate capital and generate adequate sales revenues to meet
our obligations and develop and sustain our operations could result in reducing
or ceasing our operations. Additionally, even if we do raise sufficient capital
and generate revenues to support our operating expenses, there can be no
assurances that the revenue will be sufficient to enable us to develop business
to a level where it will generate profits and cash flows from operations. These
matters raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going
concern.
8
The
Offering Price of the Shares has been arbitrarily determined.
There has
been no prior market for our common stock or other securities. We have
determined the offering price of the Shares arbitrarily, and this price does not
necessarily bear any relationship to our assets, net worth, results of
operations, or any established criteria of value. The offering price should not
be considered an indication of the actual value of the Shares.
We
may have challenges managing our growth.
We can't
assure you that our systems, procedures and controls will be adequate to support
our operations as they expand. Presently, Mr. Stephen McKernan and Mr. Bernard
Faibish are the entire management team. If we succeed in raising capital, and if
our managers effectively utilize that capital and we grow quickly, such future
growth could impose significant added responsibilities on them, including the
need to identify, recruit and integrate new senior level managers and
executives. We can't assure you that such additional management will be
identified and retained by us. If we are unable to manage our growth efficiently
and effectively or are unable to attract and retain additional qualified
management, then there could be a material adverse effect on our financial
condition and results of operations.
We
may not be able to compete with larger companies, the majority of whom have
greater resources and experience than we do.
We are
very small and an unproven entity as compared to our competitors. As an
independent licensing agent company, we will compete with major U.S. and
international corporations. Most of the major U.S. entertainment companies are
part of large diversified corporate groups with a variety of other operations,
including television networks and cable channels, that can provide both the
means of distributing their products and stable sources of earnings that may
allow them better to offset fluctuations in the financial performance of their
licensed content. In addition, the major entertainment companies have more
resources with which to compete for ideas, storylines and scripts created by
third parties. This will have a material adverse effect on our business, results
of operations, and financial condition.
Piracy
of entertainment content may reduce the gross receipts from the exploitation of
our content.
Entertainment
related piracy is extensive in many parts of the world. Additionally, as
entertainment content begins to be digitally distributed using emerging
technologies such as the internet and online services, piracy could become more
prevalent, including in the U.S., because digital formats are easier to copy. As
a result, users can download and distribute unauthorized copies of copyrighted
entertainment content over the internet. In addition, there could
be increased use of devices capable of making unauthorized copies of
entertainment content. As long as pirated content is available to download
digitally, may consumers may choose to download such pirated entertainment
content rather than pay to view entertainment content. Piracy of any content we
license may adversely impact the gross receipts received from the exploitation
of our entertainment content, which could have a material adverse effect on our
business, results of operations, and financial condition.
If
we are unable to attract key employees, we may be unable to support the growth
of our business.
Successful
execution of our business strategy depends, in large part, on our ability to
attract and retain qualified personal with the skills and qualifications
necessary to fully execute our strategy. Competition for talent among companies
in our industry is intense and we cannot assure you that we will be able to
continue to attract or retain the talent necessary to support the growth of our
business.
Risks
Relating to Our Common Stock
Le Fete
Inc., beneficially owned by our principal officer, President and Chief Executive
Officer, Stephen F. McKernan, owns a controlling interest in our voting stock
and investors may not have any voice in our management, which could result in
decisions adverse to our general shareholder.
9
Le Fete
Inc. is our principal stockholder, who owns approximately or has the right to
vote approximately 32.78% of our outstanding Class “A” common stock and 80% of
all voting stock by way of the 14,000,000 Class “B” common shares. As a result,
this shareholder will have the ability to control substantially all matters
submitted to our stockholders for approval including:
|
·
|
election
of our board of directors;
|
|
·
|
removal
of any of our directors;
|
|
·
|
amendment
of our Articles of Incorporation or bylaws;
and
|
|
·
|
adoption
of measures that could delay or prevent a change in control or impede a
merger, takeover or other business combination involving
us.
|
As a
result of the ownership and positions, Le Fete Inc. has the ability to influence
all matters requiring shareholder approval, including the election of directors
and approval of significant corporate transactions. In addition, the future
prospect of sales of significant amounts of shares held by our directors and
executive officers could affect the market price of our common stock if the
marketplace does not orderly adjust to the increase in shares in the market and
the value of your investment in the company may decrease. Management’s stock
ownership may discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or
otherwise attempting to obtain control of us, which in turn could reduce our
stock price or prevent our stockholders from realizing a premium over our stock
price.
We
may, in the future, issue additional common shares, which would reduce
investors’ percent of ownership and may dilute our share value.
Our
Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of 75,000,000 shares of common
stock. The future issuance of common stock may result in substantial dilution in
the percentage of our common stock held by our then existing shareholders. We
may value any common stock issued in the future on a arbitrary basis. The
issuance of common stock for future services or acquisitions or other corporate
actions may have the effect of diluting the value of the shares held by our
investors, and might have an adverse effect on any trading market for our common
stock.
Class
“B” Common Stock
Le Fete
Inc., beneficially owned by our principal officer, President and Chief Executive
Officer, Stephen F. McKernan, owns a controlling interest in our voting stock by
the ownership of fourteen million Class “B” Common Shares. Each Class “B”
Share has ten votes per share. When combined with the common shares owned
by Le Fete Inc., this controlling interest totals 160 million votes. If we
sell all of the 40,000,000 shares offered by the company, total votes held by
the purchasing shareholders would be 40 million votes. Le Fete Inc. would
therefore control 160 million votes out of a possible 200 million votes.
This represents 80% voting control of the Company. The voting control by
our directors and officers will make it unlikely for other stockholders to
effect change even if they are dissatisfied with management's
performance.
Class
“B” Stock and our corporate structure has certain Anti-Takeover
aspects.
Since
effective control of the Company is held by Le Fete Inc. it can limit or
prohibit others from attempting to take over control of the Company and could
have the effect of discouraging unsolicited acquisition proposals and other
attempts to buy our company. Further, it could be more difficult for a third
party to acquire control of us, even if that change of control might be
beneficial to our shareholders.
10
There
is no current trading market for our securities and if a trading market does not
develop, purchasers of our securities may have difficulty selling their
shares.
There is
currently no established public trading market for our securities and an active
trading market in our securities may not develop or, if developed, may not be
sustained. We may apply for admission to quotation of our securities on the OTC
Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”) or a stock exchange after this prospectus is declared
effective by the SEC. If for any reason our common stock is not quoted on the
OTCBB or any stock exchange, or a public trading market does not otherwise
develop, purchasers of the shares may have difficulty selling their common stock
should they desire to do so. As of the date of this filing, there have been no
discussions or understandings between the Company or anyone acting on our behalf
with any market maker regarding participation in a future trading market for our
securities. If no market is ever developed for our common stock, it will be
difficult for you to sell any shares you purchase in this distribution. In such
a case, you may find that you are unable to achieve any benefit from your
investment or liquidate your shares without considerable delay, if at all. In
addition, if we fail to have our common stock quoted on a public trading market,
your common stock will not have a quantifiable value and it may be difficult, if
not impossible, to ever resell your shares, resulting in an inability to realize
any value from your investment.
The
Company’s common stock could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to
variations in quarterly results of operations, its competitors, general
conditions in the entertainment industry, and other events or factors, many of
which are beyond the Company’s control. In addition, the stock market has
experienced price and volume fluctuations, which have affected the market price
for many companies in industries similar or related to that of the Company,
which have been unrelated to the operating performance of these companies. These
market fluctuations may have a material adverse effect on the market price of
the Company’s common stock if it ever becomes tradable.
Because
we do not intend to pay any cash dividends on our common stock, our stockholders
will not be able to receive a return on their shares unless they sell
them.
We intend
to retain any future earnings to finance the development and expansion of our
business. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in
the foreseeable future. Unless we pay dividends, our stockholders will not be
able to receive a return on their shares unless they sell them. There is no
assurance that stockholders will be able to sell shares when
desired.
There
is no minimum number of shares we have to sell in this offering.
We are
making this offering on a "best efforts, no minimum basis." What this means is
that all the net proceeds from this Offering will be immediately available for
use by us, and we don't have to wait until a minimum number of Shares have been
sold to keep the proceeds from any sales. We can't assure you that subscriptions
for the entire Offering will be obtained. We have the right to terminate the
offering of the Shares at any time, regardless of the number of Shares we have
sold since there is no minimum subscription requirement. Our ability to meet our
financial obligations and cash needs and to achieve our objectives could be
adversely affected if the entire offering of Shares is not fully subscribed
for.
State
laws may limit re-sales of the Shares.
The
holders of our shares of common stock and persons who desire to purchase them in
any trading market that might develop in the future should be aware that there
may be significant state law restrictions upon the ability of investors to
resell our shares. Accordingly, even if we are successful in having the Shares
available for trading on the OTCBB, or any stock exchange, investors should
consider any secondary market for the Company's securities to be a limited
one.
11
Investors
in the Shares will suffer immediate and substantial dilution from the
price they pay for the shares.
Investors
in DISTRIBUTION ROYALTY INC.'S shares will acquire a minority interest in
DISTRIBUTION ROYALTY INC., but will make a substantially greater financial
investment than will the existing stockholder. There will be an immediate loss
of value in the event DISTRIBUTION ROYALTY INC. was to be liquidated and the
entire net tangible book value was to be available for distribution to the
common stockholders. At April 30, 2010, DISTRIBUTION ROYALTY INC. net negative
tangible book value of $(93) or $(0.0000027) per share of common stock, with
20,000,000 Class “A” common shares and 14,000,000 Class “B” common shares,
issued and outstanding. Net tangible book value per share represents total
tangible assets, less total liabilities, divided by the number of shares of
common stock outstanding. Assuming the sale of all 40 million shares offered by
DISTRIBUTION ROYALTY INC. under this prospectus at a public offering price of
$0.01 per share, of which there is no assurance, and after deducting the
estimated expenses of this offering, DISTRIBUTION ROYALTY INC., Inc.'s Proforma
net tangible book value would be $0.0052 per share of common stock, with
60,000,000 Class “A” common shares and 14,000,000 Class “B” issued and
outstanding. This represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of
$384,907 to existing stockholders and an immediate dilution of $15,093 to new
investors participating in this offering. If DISTRIBUTION ROYALTY INC.
actually sells less than the full 40 million shares it is offering, the dilution
to purchasers will increase proportionately.
Sales
of a substantial amount our common stock in the future could cause our
stock
price to fall.
Le Fete
Inc. holds a substantial number of shares of our common stock. If we are
successful in developing a secondary market for our shares, then sales of a
substantial number of shares of our common stock by Le Fete Inc. within a short
period of time in the future could impair our ability to raise capital
through the sale of additional debt or stock and/or cause our stock
price to fall.
Typically,
if the market for a company's stock is not highly liquid and the holder of a
substantial number of shares attempts to sell quickly a large number of shares,
the price for the shares will decrease, sometimes at a rapid rate.
In this
situation, potential equity or convertible debt funders to the Company may be
reluctant to provide financing since the value of their equity rights might
decrease substantially. Also, the value of your shares might decrease
substantially.
The
trading price of our common stock could entail additional regulatory
requirements
which may negatively affect the trading.
If our
shares are listed and commence trading on the OTCBB, the trading price of our
common stock will be below $5.00 per share. As a result of this price level,
trading in our common stock would be subject to the requirements of certain
rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"Exchange Act"). These rules require additional disclosure by broker-dealers in
connection with any trades generally involving any non- NASDAQ equity security
that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain
exceptions. Such rules require the delivery, before any penny stock transaction,
of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks
associated therewith, and impose various sales practice requirements on
broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to persons other than established customers
and accredited investors (generally institutions).
For these
types of transactions, the broker-dealer must determine the suitability of the
penny stock for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written consent to the
transaction before sale. The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by
such requirements may discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in
our common stock. As a consequence, the market liquidity of our common stock
could be severely affected or limited by these regulatory
requirements.
12
As of the
date of this Offering Statement, there are 20,000,000 Class “A” common shares of
DISTRIBUTION ROYALTY INC. issued and outstanding. 40,000,000 of those shares are
offered for sale to the public under this Offering Statement. Le Fete Inc.
owns 20 million Class “A” common shares and 14 million Class “B” common shares
which are owned by La Fete Inc. These common shares have a
limit on how many shares can be sold by an affiliate in a three month period,
and imposes other requirements on the sale. Le Fete Inc. could begin
selling shares of common stock equal to 1% of the issued and outstanding Class
“A” common shares into the market every three months after that date, subject to
satisfying the notice, transaction and public information requirements of the
SEC. The introduction of these shares, even in limited quantities, into the
market place could result in a decline in the market price for DISTRIBUTION
ROYALTY INC. common stock as a result of supply exceeding demand.
Sales
of our common stock by the Le Fete Inc. may depress our stock
price.
If the
current sole shareholder, Le Fete Inc., sold a substantial number of shares of
our common within a relatively short period of time it could have the effect of
depressing the market price of our common stock and could impair our ability to
raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities.
We
plan to use our stock to pay, for future acquisitions and this would be dilutive
to investors.
We plan
to use our stock to pay, for future acquisitions, and believe that doing so will
enable us to retain a greater percentage of our operating capital to pay for
operations and marketing.
Price and
volume fluctuations in our stock might negatively impact our ability to
effectively use our stock to pay for acquisitions, or it could cause us to offer
stock as consideration for acquisitions on terms that are not favorable to us
and our shareholders. If we did resort to issuing stock in lieu of cash for
acquisitions under unfavorable circumstances, it would result in increased
dilution to investors.

DESCRIPTION
OF BUSINESS
Investors
are encouraged to read the Summary contained in this forepart of this
Prospectus.
13
DISTRIBUTION
ROYALTY INC. (the "Company" or, "DRI") was incorporated on April 22, 2010 in the
state of Nevada. We are an entertainment company that is engaged in the
acquisition of entertainment content to act as a licensing agent on behalf of
copyright owners. We plan to acquire the rights to license feature films
and theatrical musicals. The Company will collect distribution fees from
licensing fees paid from the use of the entertainment content. The company will
received a percentage of the overall licensing fee or royalty paid by the
licensee.
FILMED
ENTERTAINMENT
Motion Pictures
General. According to
the Motion Picture Association of America’s U.S. Theatrical Market: 2008
Statistics, domestic box office grew to another historic high of
approximately $9.8 billion in 2008, compared to approximately
$9.6 billion in 2007, a 1.7% increase. Although it fluctuates from year to
year, the domestic motion picture exhibition industry has generally grown in
revenues and attendance over the past 10 years. Worldwide box office, which
has grown approximately 17% in the past five years, also reached an all time
high of approximately $28.1 billion in 2008, compared to approximately
$26.7 billion in 2007, a 5.2% increase. Domestic theatrical admissions were
approximately 1.4 billion in 2010, down 2.6% from 2007.
Competition. Major
studios have historically dominated the motion picture industry. The term “major
studios” is generally regarded in the entertainment industry to mean Paramount
Pictures Corporation, Sony Pictures Entertainment, Inc., Twentieth Century Fox
Film Corp., Universal Pictures, Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures and Warner
Bros. Entertainment, Inc. These studios have historically produced and
distributed the majority of theatrical motion pictures released annually in the
U.S.
Competitors
less diversified than the “major studios” include DreamWorks Animation SKG, Inc.
Lions Gate Entertainment Corp., and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios Inc (“MGM”).
These “independent” motion picture production companies, including many smaller
production companies, have also played an important role in the worldwide
feature film market. Independent films have gained wider market approval and
increased share of overall box office receipts in recent years.
Product Life Cycle. In
general, the economic life of a motion picture consists of its exploitation in
theaters and in ancillary markets such as home entertainment, pay-per-view,
digital rentals, pay television, broadcast television, foreign and other
markets. Successful motion pictures may continue to play in theaters for more
than three months following their initial release. Concurrent with their release
in the U.S., motion pictures are generally released in Canada and may also be
released in one or more other foreign markets. After the initial theatrical
release, distributors seek to maximize revenues by releasing movies in
sequential release date windows, which are generally exclusive against other
non-theatrical distribution channels.
Home
Entertainment
Home
entertainment distribution involves the marketing, promotion and sale and/or
lease of DVDs and Blu-ray discs to wholesalers and retailers who then sell or
rent the DVDs and Blu-ray discs to consumers for private viewing and through
various digital media platforms (i.e., electronic sell-through or “EST”). Past
growth in the home entertainment sector has been driven by increased DVD and
Blu-ray penetration, although 2010 marked a year of declined consumer spend for
home entertainment. According to estimates from Adams Media Research, packaged
home entertainment spend totaled just under $23 billion in 2010, down 6% from
2007, with about 100 million DVD households in the U.S. at year end.
Declining box office-to-DVD conversion rates and weakness in the overall economy
have been cited as reasons for this decline in spend. However, growth
is anticipated to resume in upcoming years from Blu-ray and other
technological enhancements including EST, enhanced video and audio quality, and
special features such as inclusion of previously-deleted scenes, film
commentaries and “behind the scenes” footage. The continued increase in digital
delivery of content is also expected to foster long-term growth of the overall
home entertainment business.
Television
Programming
The
market for television programming is composed primarily of the broadcast
television networks (such as ABC, CBS, CW, Fox and NBC), pay and basic cable
networks (such as AMC, HBO, MTV, Showtime, Starz, TV Guide Network, VH1 and USA
Network) and syndicators of first-run programming (such as Sony Pictures
Television, CBS Paramount Distribution and ABC Studios) which license programs
on a station-by-station basis. Continued growth in the cable and satellite
television markets has driven increased demand for nearly all genres of
television programming. Key drivers will include the success of the cable
industry’s bundled services, increased average revenue per user, reduced number
of participants discontinuing services and accelerated ad spend growth.
Increased capacity for channels on upgraded digital cable systems and satellite
television has led to the launch of new networks seeking programming to compete
with traditional broadcast networks as well as other existing
networks.
14
Cable
and Satellite Television Distribution
The
cable and satellite television industry is comprised primarily of cable and
satellite multiple system operators (“MSOs”) that provide cable and satellite
television service to their subscribers, and cable and satellite channels that
provide programming content to the system operators for distribution to their
subscribers. The operators generally pay a per subscriber carriage fee for the
right to distribute a channel on their system with the highest fees going to
those channels with the most viewers. Operators seek to create a mix of channels
that will be attractive to their subscriber base to gain new subscribers and to
reduce subscriber turnover. Cable and satellite channels are generally more
clearly branded than broadcast networks and provide content that reflects those
brands. Branding helps the channels target a more specific demographic so that
they can better attract advertisers seeking to reach that audience.
Digital
Media
Growth
in the digital market and EST has been driven, in part, by broadband
penetration. According to MAGNA Global, in 2010, over 73 million American
households used broadband to access the internet. In 2010, Adams Media Research
reported that industry-wide revenue from digital delivery and EST grew a sharp
79% as broadband technology proliferated, consumer acceptance increased, and
content distributors refined their models. The increase in broadband penetration
will further aid in the growth of digital revenue for the home entertainment
business.
THEATRICAL
MUSICALS
Live
Theatrical Productions and Licensing
The
public’s appetite for live theatre has increased substantially in recent years.
Based on a recent report in Variety magazine, cumulative
calendar year-end grosses for Broadway productions and subsequent tours have
increased from US$1,351,403,718 in 1997-1998 to US$1,635,091,313 in 2007-2010.
In the ten year period from the 1997-1998 season to the 2007- 2010 season,
Broadway gross revenues alone increased more than US$284 million while
playing weeks actually declined 17%. The success rate of live theatre
productions varies, depending on numerous factors, including the nature of the
production (e.g.,
dramatic play, musical, revival, etc.) and whether
the production is intended for staging on Broadway, Off-Broadway or other
smaller markets. On average, approximately 20% of new live theatre productions
are commercially successful. Musical productions have generally had a superior
record to dramatic productions in terms of production revenues, attract a larger
public profile, are capable of sustaining lengthy runs and may generate revenues
from international licensing. As such, musical productions dominate the
marketplace. The live professional theatre business consists mainly of the
production of existing musical (“revivals”) and dramatic works and the
development of new works for subsequent productions. The revenues of the
industry are chiefly derived from the sale to audiences of tickets for such
productions, though revenues may also be generated from film rights and other
media sales. In general, musicals require more investment of time and capital
than dramatic productions. For revivals, a period of 12 to 24 months typically
elapses between the time a producer acquires the theatrical stage rights
and the date on which the musical is first performed before the public. A
longer period - on average up to three years but sometimes even fifteen years
- is required before a newly-created work is first publicly performed. The
production budget in the United States for a major musical production,
including pre-opening advertising costs, is typically in the range of US$5
million to US$20 million, depending on the nature of the production. Given
the large costs which can be associated with mounting a
first-class production, there is generally more than one producer involved
in any given production. Generally, the first stage in producing a musical
restoration or reproduction is the acquisition by the producers of the
theatrical stage rights in the musical work created by a composer, lyricist
and book writer who generally have already obtained underlying rights
from the original author, if applicable (collectively, the “Authors”). In the case of a
dramatic production, the producers must obtain the necessary rights from
the Authors of the work on which Production is to be based, or from the
holder of theatrical stage rights in and to the work.
15
As
payment for these rights, the Authors typically are entitled to receive
royalties calculated as a percentage of box office receipts. The producer then
assembles all of the elements necessary to mount the production, beginning with
the engagement of the director. The producer and director, at times in
collaboration with the Authors, select other key creative personnel such as the
choreographer, set designer, costume designer, lighting designer, sound
designer, orchestrator and dance music arranger, who are then engaged by the
producer. At the same time, the producers will engage key business personal,
starting with the general manager. The contractual arrangements with key
creative personnel (other than principal performers except in rare
circumstances) usually include royalties based on a percentage of box office
revenues. Occasionally, a prominent author or director may negotiate
participation in profits after recoupment of pre-production costs. After the
creative personnel have been identified and their services have been contracted,
the principal actors are engaged by the producer. While offers may be put out to
a handful of major stars based on their reputations, auditions and/or readings
are held for all other cast members; casting decisions are made following the
audition process. Supporting cast members are engaged in accordance with
industry requirements and related work rules. During the preproduction phase,
the producer must arrange or co-ordinate set construction, costume preparation,
lighting and sound equipment (leased or purchased), rehearsal and theatre
accommodation and generally develop the production to the point where the work
can be performed as a first-class production before a paying audience.
Pre-production often includes a preview engagement of the production outside of
the major centers to enable the creative personnel and cast to become
comfortable with the staging arrangements and roles as well as several weeks of
previews in the major, first-class theatre. “Opening night” is generally defined
as the night the various media press release their reviews to the public. In
addition to piecing together various aspects of the show, the producer must,
well in advance of the opening of the show, arrange financing for the
development and staging of the theatrical production and devise and execute a
marketing plan for the production. Expenses of developing a production that are
incurred prior to the first performance of that production are usually described
as pre-production costs. These costs include expenses for the pre-opening
advertising, publicity and promotion, set construction, props, costumes and
salaries and fees paid to cast, crew, musicians and creative constituents during
rehearsals. Expenses incurred after the opening (press) performance are termed
operating costs or running costs. Running costs include post-opening
advertising, publicity and promotion, salaries of the cast, crew and musicians,
equipment rental, theatre rental, royalties payable to the creative team and,
after recovery of all pre-production costs, third-party profit participation, if
any. In live theatre, a production earns revenue only as each performance is
presented. While tickets are usually sold well in advance of the performance
date, the revenue from each advance ticket is offset by the contingent liability
to refund the ticket price in the event of a cancelled performance. The
arrangements for “treasuring” (“treasuring” means the holding
of advance ticket sale proceeds for the performance prior to the presentation
thereof) the advance box office receipts and the sharing of interest earned on
those funds are often the subject of negotiations among the producer, the
theatre owner or manager, and any ticket selling agency engaged for the
particular production; in general, treasuring interest often goes to the theatre
owner.
Royalties
payable to the Authors and to creative production personnel are
generally calculated as a percentage (typically 10% to 20% in total) of box
office receipts (being gross ticket sales revenue net only of taxes, credit
card charges and other agreed deductions). Alternatively, Authors and
creative talent can be rewarded on a profit pool basis whereby they receive
an agreed percentage of weekly operating profits (that is, box office receipts
net of operating costs). Profit pool arrangements can be structured in a
variety of ways. Under a typical profit pool formula, the producer forms a
royalty pool, allocates points within the pool to each of the participating
creative personnel and assigns a cash-value to the points. A portion of
the weekly production revenues, which is lower than the percentage of the
gross allocable to creative personnel in the gross participating structure,
is accumulated in the royalty pool and paid out on a weekly or monthly
basis. The effect of this structure is to initially increase funds being
returned to investors.
The cost
of producing, marketing and presenting live theatrical stage productions
is substantial and has increased in recent years. The participation payable
to creative and artistic personnel, which varies from production to
production and fluctuates in accordance with the box office revenue earned
by the production, reduces revenue available to form payment to
persons financing theatrical productions or otherwise participating in
gross revenues. The point in time at which aggregate operating profits from
the production have grown to an amount equal to the preproduction costs is
called recoupment and operating profits earned by the production
thereafter are called production profits.
16
First-Class
Productions
A
“first-class production” is typically defined as a stage play, musical, or other
theatrical property having a “first-class” director, production team and
cast of performers, and is presented in a “first-class” theatre. Such a
production is typically presented initially either on Broadway in New York
City, or in London’s West End theatre district, however, there are several other
“first class” theatres throughout North America and other
countries. All theatrical properties presented on an “Actors’ Equity
Broadway production contract” in New York City are known as “Broadway”
productions. The Broadway theatre district has approximately 39 theatres,
less than half of which can feature musicals. A first-class
production presented on Broadway, having a first-class director, production
team and cast and presented in a first-class theatre, is known as a
“Broadway First-Class Production”. In New York City, examples of
first-class theatres are the Shubert Theatre, the Gershwin theatre, and the
Marquis Theatre and others.
Theatrical
Licensing
After
being staged as a Broadway or West End first-class production, the
theatrical property may subsequently be staged in other markets nationally
and internationally. This happens both through a touring “road show” and by
licensing the rights through local producers who acquire the right, under
license from the owner of the copyright or the licensing agent of the rights to
the theatrical property, to stage a specific production of the theatrical
property in a designated market. Musicals such as Phantom of The Opera, The Lion
King, Mamma Mia, The Sound of Music, My Fair Lady, etc. have been and are being
licensed worldwide in many countries. Typically after the inaugural
“first class” Broadway or London West-end production of a musical the
international licensing of the musical begins.
Owing the
licensing rights to a theatrical musical is the right to act as the licensing
agent for the theatrical musical. Theatrical musicals may not be publicly
performed without permission. The rights that are needed to publicly
perform a dramatic work that combines the theatrical musical work together with
dialogue, staging, costuming, lighting, choreography, etc. are referred to as
grand performing
rights.
Grand
performing rights are obtained from the creator of the work or from their
licensing agent who owns the rights to license the grand performing
rights. DISTRIBUTION ROYALTY INC. will be the worldwide licensing agent
for the grand performing rights to Theatrical Musicals it acquires the right to
license. The Company will receive revenue from collecting the licensing
fees paid by the producers or production companies who licensee the
rights. The Company earns a percentage of the gross licensing fees
paid. Those that licensee theatrical musicals can be professional or
amateur theater companies in any country in the world that produces and performs
theatrical musicals.
OUR
PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
DISTRIBUTION
ROYALTY INC. will be the company that will act as the licensing agent for
feature films film scripts, and theatrical musicals.
DISTRIBUTION ROYALTY INC. will earn it’s revenue from a negotiated percentage of
the gross licensing fees collected. At the time of this offering the Company has
acquired the rights to the feature film script entitled THE CALL. It was
acquired on July 31, 2010 from Let Fete Inc. a company wholly owned by the
principal of the Company, Mr. Stephen F. McKernan. Mr. McKernan wrote the
screenplay. Mr. Peter Tassi co-wrote the story and is entitled to 50% of
the acquisition cost to be paid by Le Fete. Inc. to Mr. Peter Tassi. The
rights to the script were purchased for an amount of $150,000 plus 5% of any
profits from the film. The Company issued a promissory note for
$150,000 dated July 31, 2010 and maturing on July 31, 2011 bearing simple
interest at the rate of 10% per annum. The company plans to license the
feature film rights to a film production company in order to pay the $150,000
due Le Fete Inc. and potentially earn a profit from the licensing of the script
to a production company. At the time of this Offering no agreement with
any production company has been entered into.

DISTRIBUTION
ROYALTY INC. expects the net proceeds from the sale of fifty percent of the
shares offered by the Company will sustain its operations for a period of twelve
months. Revenues generated during this period could extend the period over which
DISTRIBUTION ROYALTY INC. can use the net proceeds; however, we have sustained
net losses of $34,093 since inception in 2010, which means we have been unable
to generate positive cash flows to finance the business. There is no assurance
that the net proceeds will be received in time to meet our needs. Our board of
directors reserves the right to reallocate the use of proceeds to meet
unforeseen events. Pending their use, DISTRIBUTION ROYALTY INC. may deposit
proceeds in commercial bank accounts or invest them in money market funds for
short term government obligations.
As of
April 30, 2010 $433 is owed to Mr. McKernan for money he advanced to company;

DETERMINATION
OF OFFERING PRICE
We have
determined the offering price of the Shares arbitrarily. In determining
the offering price of the Shares we considered several factors including the
following:
* prevailing
market conditions, including the history and prospects for the industry in which
we compete;
The
public offering price of the shares does not necessarily bear any relationship
to established valuation criteria and may not be indicative of prices that may
prevail at any time or from time to time in the public market for the common
stock. You cannot be sure that a public market for any of our securities will
develop and continue or that the securities will ever trade at a price at or
higher than the offering price in this offering.
DILUTION
The
difference between our offering price of $0.01 per share of common stock and the
pro forma net tangible book value per share of common stock after this offering
constitutes the dilution to investors in this offering. Our net tangible book
value per share is determined by dividing our net tangible book value (total
tangible assets less total liabilities) by the number of outstanding shares of
common stock.
At April
30, 2010 our common stock had net tangible book value of
approximately $(93) or $(0.0000027) per share. After

DESCRIPTION
OF SECURITIES
General
The
following description of the rights and preferences of the Company's capital
stock is merely a summary. Each prospective investor should refer to the
Company's Articles of Incorporation for a complete description of the Company's
capital stock as well as the Auditors Report and the applicable statutes of the
State of Nevada for a more complete description concerning the rights and
liabilities of stockholders.
The Company is authorized to issue 75
million shares of common stock consisting of 61 million shares
of Class “A” Common Stock, with a par value of $.001 per share, of
which 20 million shares are issued and outstanding, and authorized to issue 14
million shares of Class “B” Stock, with a par value of $.001 per
share, of which 14 million shares are issued and outstanding.
Class
“A” Common Stock
Holders of the Class “A” Common Stock
do not have preemptive rights to purchase additional shares of Common Stock or
other subscription rights. The Class “A” Common Stock carries no conversion
rights and is not subject to redemption or to any sinking fund provisions. Upon
liquidation or dissolution of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary,
holders of shares of Common Stock are to share equally in the assets of the
Company available for distribution to stockholders. The Board of Directors is
authorized to issue additional shares of Common Stock, not to exceed the amount
authorized by the Company's Articles of Incorporation, unless amended, on such
terms and conditions and for such consideration as the Board may deem
appropriate without further stockholder action.
Each holder of Class “A Common Stock
is entitled to one vote per share on all matters on which such stockholders are
entitled to vote. Since the shares of Common Stock do not have cumulative voting
rights, the holders of more than 50% of the shares voting for the election of
directors can elect all the directors if they choose to do so and, in such
event, the holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect any person
to the Board of Directors.
25
Holders of the Company's Class “A”
Common Stock are entitled to dividends when, as, and if declared by the Board of
Directors out of funds legally available therefor. The Company does not
anticipate the declaration or payment of any dividends in the foreseeable future
but could declare a dividend for Class “A” common stock holders when the Board
of Directors decides it is in the best interest of the Class “A” common stock
holders.
The Company intends to retain
earnings, if any, to finance the development and expansion of its business.
Future dividend policy will be subject to the discretion of the Board of
Directors and will be contingent upon future earnings, if any, the Company's
financial condition, capital requirements, general business conditions, and
other factors. Therefore, there can be no assurance that any dividends of any
kind will ever be paid.
Class
“B” Common Stock
Holders of the Class “B” Common Stock
do not have preemptive rights to purchase additional shares of Common Stock or
other subscription rights. The Class “A” Common Stock has conversion rights but
is not subject to redemption or to any sinking fund provisions. Upon liquidation
or dissolution of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, holders of
shares of Class “B: Common Stock are to share equally in the assets of the
Company available for distribution to all stockholders. The Board of Directors
is authorized to issue additional shares of Class “B” Common Stock, not to
exceed the amount authorized by the Company's Articles of Incorporation, unless
amended, on such terms and conditions and for such consideration as the Board
may deem appropriate without further stockholder action.
Each holder of Class “B” Common Stock
is entitled to ten votes per share on all matters on which such all stockholders
are entitled to vote. Since the shares of Common Stock do not have cumulative
voting rights, the holders of more than 50% of the shares voting for the
election of directors can elect all the directors if they choose to do so and,
in such event, the holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect any
person to the Board of Directors.
Holders of the Company's Class “B”
Common Stock are not entitled to any dividends when, as, and if declared by the
Board of Directors out of funds legally available therefor.
Class “B” common shares may be
converted by the holder to Class “A” common shares . If the Class “A”
common shares were to become traded on any exchange or quotation system that
trades the Class “A” common shares of corporation, then the Class “B”
common shares may only be converted to Class “A” common shares if the Class “A”
common shares reach a trading price of $20. Said conversion privilege
shall be subject to the securities regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission or any such regulatory body.
Share

not issued and do not have outstanding any warrants to purchase shares of our

ORGANIZATION
WITHIN LAST FIVE YEARS
DISTRIBUTION
ROYALTY INC. was incorporated in April 22, 2010 in the state of Nevada. We are a
newly formed company with no operating history.
MANAGEMENT'S
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION &
PLAN OF OPERATIONS
You
should read the following discussion together with our financial statements and
the related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus. This discussion
contains forward-looking statements, which involve risks and uncertainties. Our
actual results may differ materially from those we currently anticipate as a
result of many factors, including the factors we describe under "Risk Factors,"
"Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" and elsewhere in this
prospectus.
Forward
Looking Statements
Some of
the information in this section contains forward-looking statements that involve
substantial risks and uncertainties. You can identify these statements by
forward-looking words such as "may," "will," "expect," "anticipate," "believe,"
"estimate" and "continue," or similar words. You should read statements that
contain these words carefully because they:
27
* discuss
our future expectations;
* contain
projections of our future results of operations or of our financial condition;
and
* state
other "forward-looking" information.
We
believe it is important to communicate our expectations. However, there may be
events in the future that we are not able to accurately predict or over which we
have no control. Our actual results and the timing of certain events could
differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as
a result of certain factors, including those set forth under "Risk Factors,"
"Business" and elsewhere in this prospectus. See "Risk Factors."
Unless
stated otherwise, the words "we," "us," "our," "the Company," or "DISTRIBUTION
ROYALTY INC." in this section collectively refer to DISTRIBUTION ROYALTY
INC.,
Going
Concern
In their
2010 audit report, our auditors have expressed their doubt as to our ability to
continue as a going concern. At April 30, 2010, the Company had $340 cash
and cash equivalents on hand and a net loss of ($34,093). We will depend
on generating sufficient proceeds from this offering to fund our
operations. The 40,000,000 shares offered by the Company in his offering
is a self-underwritten, best efforts basis, there is no minimum share purchase
requirement and there is no guarantee as to the amount of proceeds that will
result from this offering, if any. The going concern opinion of the
auditors might negatively impact our ability to raise capital to fund our
operations or pursue our business strategy and our investors' ability to sell
their shares of the Company's common stock. If we do not raise sufficient
amount of funds from this offering and/or subsequent private and public
offerings, we might have to cease operations.
Industry
Trends
Our
performance depends on the impact of economic conditions on levels of consumer
spending. As a result of the credit market crisis, coupled with declining
consumer and business confidence, recession worries, and other challenges
currently affecting the global economy, consumers are continuing to curb
discretionary spending, which could have an effect on our business.
Our
competitors in the film business are the Major entertainment studios. Major
studios have historically dominated the motion picture industry. The term “major
studios” is generally regarded in the entertainment industry to mean Paramount
Pictures Corporation, Sony Pictures Entertainment, Inc., Twentieth Century Fox
Film Corp., Universal Pictures, Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures and Warner
Bros. Entertainment, Inc. These studios have historically produced and
distributed the majority of theatrical motion pictures released annually in the
U.S.
Competitors
in the film business less diversified than the “major studios” include
DreamWorks Animation SKG, Inc. Lions Gate Entertainment Corp., and
Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios Inc (“MGM”). These “independent” motion picture
production companies, including many smaller production companies, have also
played an important role in the worldwide feature film market. Independent films
have gained wider market approval and increased share of overall box office
receipts in recent years.
28
Our
Competitors in the licensing agent business for theatrical musicals are
companies such as Tams Widmark International, Samuel French Inc. and Music
Theater International and others. These theatrical licensing agents have
historically licensed and distributed the majority of theatrical
musicals.
Our
competitors in filmed entertainment and theatrical musical licensing are much
larger and well established and have significant financing in place for
growth.
Current

Working
Capital Needed for One Year
DISTRIBUTION
ROYALTY INC. expects the net proceeds from the sale of fifty percent of the
shares registered will sustain its operations for a period of twelve months.
Revenues generated during this period could extend the period over which
DISTRIBUTION ROYALTY INC. can use the net proceeds.
Acquisition
of Entertainment Content
Our
business plan is to acquire small budget motion pictures, screenplays, and
theatrical musicals. We would license the motion pictures to theater
chains, retailers, video rental stores, and pay and free television channels in
the United States (the “U.S.”), Canada, the United Kingdom (the “UK”) and
Ireland, and other international markets directly and indirectly through third
parties. We would license screenplays to production companies. We would
license the Theatrical Musicals to major markets international for first class
productions and to amateur dramatic theater companies and schools. At the
time of this offering the Company has acquired the rights to the feature film
script entitled THE
CALL. It was acquired on July31, 2010 from Let Fete Inc. a company
wholly owned by the principal of the Company, Mr. Stephen F. McKernan. Mr.
McKernan wrote the screenplay. Mr. Peter Tassi co-wrote the story and is
entitled to 50% of the acquisition cost to be paid by Le Fete. Inc. to Mr. Peter
Tassi. The rights to the script were purchased for an amount of $150,000
plus 5% of any profits from the film. The Company issued a
promissory note for $150,000 dated July 31, 2010 and maturing on July 31, 2011
bearing simple interest at the rate of 10% per annum. The company plans to
license the feature film rights to a film production company in order to pay the
$150,000 due Le Fete Inc. and potentially earn a profit from the licensing of
the script to a production company. At the time of this Offering no
agreement with any production company has been entered into.
30
Sufficiency
of Cash Flows
Because
current cash balances and projected cash generation from operations are not
sufficient to meet the Company's cash needs for working capital and capital
expenditures, management may seek additional equity or obtain credit facilities.
The sale of additional equity could result in additional dilution to the
Company's shareholders. From time to time, in the ordinary course of business,
the Company will evaluate potential acquisitions of entertainment content to
license.
Critical
Accounting Policies
Our
discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are
based upon the financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The
preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and
judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues
and expenses and disclosures on the date of the financial
statements.
On an on-going basis, we evaluate our
estimates, including, but not limited to, those related to revenue
recognition.
We
use authoritative pronouncements, historical experience and other assumptions as
the basis for making judgments. Actual results could differ from those
estimates. Critical accounting policies identified are as follows:
Revenue
Recognition
We
recognize revenue in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 104 (SAB 104), "Revenue Recognition in Financial
Statements." Revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable,
persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed, and
collectability is reasonably assured.
Distribution
Royalty Inc. revenue recognition for the business will be recorded when the
licensing fees are received from the licensee.

per share: $(0.0010)
Assets.
Our total assets were $340 at April 30, 2010

Liabilities.
Our total liabilities were $433 at April 30, 2010.
Total
Stockholders' Deficit. Our stockholders' deficit was $(93) at April 30,
2010.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
In their
2010 audit report, our auditors have expressed their doubt as to our ability to
continue as a going concern. At April 30, 2010, the Company had $340 cash
and cash equivalents on hand and a net loss of $(34,093) . We will
depend on generating sufficient proceeds from this offering to fund our
operations. The 40,000,000 shares offered by the Company in his offering is a
self-underwritten, best efforts basis, there is no minimum share purchase
requirement and there is no guarantee as to the amount of proceeds that will
result from this offering, if any. If we do not raise sufficient amount of
funds from this offering and/or subsequent private and public offerings, we
might have to cease operations.
At April
30, 2010 the Company's current liquidity ratio was (78.52:1) DISTRIBUTION
ROYALTY INC. has not generated any revenue since inception (April 22, 2010 to
April 30, 2010), to carry its costs of operations.
Although
the Company plans to pursue its equity funding, there can be no assurance that
the Company will be able raise sufficient working capital to maintain its
operations. If the Company is unable to raise the necessary working capital
though the equity funding it will be forced to continue relying on cash from
operations and loans from related parties to satisfy its working capital needs.
There can be no assurance that the company will be able rely on these sources to
maintain its operations.
DISTRIBUTION
ROYALTY INC. expects the net proceeds from the sale of fifty percent of the
shares offered by the Company will sustain its operations for a period of twelve
months. Revenues generated during this period could extend the period over which
DISTRIBUTION ROYALTY INC. can use the net proceeds; however, we have sustained
net losses since inception in 2005, which means in the past we have been unable
to generate positive cash flows to finance the business.
There is
no assurance that the net proceeds will be received in time to meet our needs.
Our board of directors reserves the right to reallocate the use of proceeds to
meet unforeseen events. Pending their use, DISTRIBUTION ROYALTY INC. may deposit
proceeds in commercial bank accounts or invest them in money market funds for
short term government obligations.
To date,
the Company has financed its operations from advances totaling $433 for
incorporation costs from Stephen F. McKernan an officer and director of the
Company, and the issuance of 20,000,000 Class “A common shares to Le Fete Inc. a
related party company, owned by the Companies sole shareholder for an expense of
$19,800 related to services provided by Le Fete Inc. in the establishment of the
Company and the issuance of 14,000,000 Class “B” common shares to Le Fete Inc. a
related party company, owned by the Companies sole shareholder for an expense of
$13,860 related to services provided by Le Fete Inc. in the establishment of the
Company as of April 30,2010. The Company has agreed to repay the $433 upon
the receipt of sufficient capital.
The
growth and development of our business will require a significant amount of
additional working capital. We currently have limited financial resources and
based on our current operating plan, we will need to raise additional capital in
order to continue as a going concern. We currently do not have adequate cash to
meet our short or long term objectives. In the event additional capital is
raised, it may have a dilutive effect on our existing
stockholders.
32
Deferred
Compensation
Management
is currently owed $0.00 as of April 30, 2010. Management will not receive wages
until the company generates revenue to pay wages.
Self
Underwriting Offering
DISTRIBUTION
ROYALTY INC. management will do a shelf underwriting "best efforts basis" with
no minimum share purchase requirement, there is no guarantee as to the amount of
funding received from this offering, if any. Management has estimated the use of
funds in the Plan of Operation, found above in the MD&A section, to clearly
explain management's intentions. The funds may not be raised and the Plan
of Operation may need to be changed. There are no guarantees as to the amount of
proceeds raised.
Use
of Estimates
The
Company's significant estimates include allowance for doubtful accounts and
accrued expenses. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. While the Company
believes that such estimates are fair when considered in conjunction with the
financial statements taken as a whole, the actual amounts of such estimates,
when known, will vary from these estimates. If actual results significantly
differ from the Company's estimates, the Company's financial condition and
results of operations could be materially impacted.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
Cash and
cash equivalents include all interest-bearing deposits or investments with
original maturities of three months or less.
Fair
value of financial instruments
The
carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash, accounts receivable,
accounts payable and accrued expenses, debenture and loans payable approximate
their fair market value based on the short-term maturity of these
instruments.
Accounts
Receivable
The
Company has no accounts receivable. The Company would maintain reserves
for potential credit losses.
Property
and Equipment
The
Company has no Property or equipment as of the date of this Offering. Property
and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is
computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
related assets. Machinery and equipment are depreciated over 3 to 10 years.
Furniture and fixtures are depreciated over 7 years. Accelerated methods of
depreciation are generally used for income tax purposes. Leasehold improvements
are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the useful life of
the improvement or the term of the lease.
33
The
Company will perform ongoing evaluations of the estimated useful lives of the
property and equipment for depreciation purposes. The estimated useful lives are
determined and continually evaluated based on the period over which services are
expected to be rendered by the asset. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as
incurred.
Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets
In
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144,
"Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," The Company
periodically reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not
be fully recoverable. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of
expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the
asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the
asset's estimated fair value and its book value.
Other
Intangible Assets
Acquired
intangible assets are separately recognized if the benefit of the intangible
asset is obtained through contractual or other legal rights, or if the
intangible asset can be sold, transferred, licensed, rented or exchanged,
regardless of the Company's intent to do so.
The
Company presents "basic" and, if applicable, "diluted" earnings (loss) per
common share pursuant to the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share" ("SFAS 128") and certain other financial
accounting pronouncements. Basic earnings (loss) per common share are calculated
by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during each period. The calculation of diluted earnings (loss) per
common share is similar to that of basic earnings (loss) per common share,
except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional
common shares that would have been outstanding if all potentially dilutive
common shares, such as those issuable upon the conversion of debentures, were
issued during the period.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents,
accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the
immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments.
Stock
Based Compensation
The
Company accounts for employee and non-employee stock awards under SFAS 123(r),
whereby equity instruments issued to employees for services are recorded based
on the fair value of the instrument issued and those issued to non-employees are
recorded based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value
of the equity instrument, whichever is more reliably measurable. The Company did
not pay any stock-based compensation during the period presented.
Accounting
for Warrants and Freestanding Derivative Financial Instruments
The
Company evaluates its warrants and other contracts to determine if those
contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be
separately accounted for under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 133
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("FAS 133") and
related interpretations including EITF 00-19 "Accounting for Derivative
Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company's Own
Stock" ("EITF 00-19"). If the warrant is determined to be a derivative,
the fair value of the warrants is marked-to-market each balance sheet date and
recorded as a liability. The change in fair value of the warrants is recorded in
the Statement of Operations as other income or expense. Upon conversion or
exercise of a derivative instrument, the instrument is marked to fair value at
the conversion date and then that fair value is reclassified to
equity.
34
Equity
instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to
reclassification under FAS 133 are reclassified to liability at the fair value
of the instrument on the reclassification date. In the event that the warrants
are determined to be equity, no value is assigned for financial reporting
purposes.
Intangible
Assets and Related Impairment of Long-lived Assets
Long-lived
assets and certain identifiable intangibles are reviewed for impairment whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset
may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured
by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the undiscounted cash
flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. If
such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is
measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the
fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of shall be classified as held
for sale and are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less
costs to sell.
Income
taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income
Taxes." Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are
determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of
assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws
that will be in effect when the differences are expected to
reverse.
Had
income taxes been determined based on an effective tax rate of 34% consistent
with the method of SFAS 109, the Company's net losses for all periods presented
would not materially change.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In
December 2007, the FASB issued FAS No. 141(R) "Applying the Acquisition Method,"
which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. This
statement retains the fundamental requirements in FAS 141 that the acquisition
method be used for all business combinations and for an acquirer to be
identified for each business combination. FAS 141(R) broadens the scope of FAS
141 by requiring application of the purchase method of accounting to
transactions in which one entity establishes control over another entity without
necessarily transferring consideration, even if the acquirer has not acquired
100% of its target. Among other changes, FAS 141(R) applies the concept of fair
value and "more likely than not" criteria to accounting for contingent
consideration, and pre-acquisition contingencies. As a result of implementing
the new standard, since transaction costs would not be an element of fair value
of the target, they will not be considered part of the fair value of the
acquirer's interest and will be expensed as incurred. The Company does not
expect that the impact of this standard will have a significant effect on its
financial condition and results of operations.
In
December 2007, the FASB also issued FAS No. 160, "Accounting for Non controlling
Interests," which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2010. This statement clarifies the classification of non controlling interests
in the consolidated statements of financial position and the accounting for and
reporting of transactions between the reporting entity and the holders of
non-controlling interests.
35
The
Company does not expect that the adoption of this standard will have a
significant impact on its financial condition, results or operations, cash flows
or disclosures.
In
February 2007, the FASB issued FAS No. 159, "Fair Value Option" which provides
companies an irrevocable option to report selected financial assets and
liabilities at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by
providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported
earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without
having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions.
FAS 159
is effective for entities as of the beginning of the first fiscal year that
begins after November 15, 2007. The Company does not expect that the adoption of
this standard will have a significant impact on its financial condition, results
or operations, cash flows or disclosures.
In
September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FAS No.
157, "Fair Value Measurements" ("FAS 157"), which establishes a framework for
measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP and expands disclosures about fair
value measurements.
FAS 157
does not require any new fair value measurements but rather eliminates
inconsistencies in guidance found in various prior accounting pronouncements.
FAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The
Company does not expect that the adoption of this standard will have a
significant impact on its financial condition, results or operations, cash flows
or disclosures.

Penny
Stock Rules
The term
"penny stock" generally refers to low-priced (below $5.00), speculative
securities of very small companies. While penny stocks generally are quoted
over-the-counter, such as on the OTC Bulletin Board or in the Pink Sheets, they
may also trade on securities exchanges, including foreign securities exchanges.
In addition, penny stocks include the securities of certain private companies
with no active trading market. Before a broker- dealer can sell a penny stock,
SEC rules require the firm to first approve the customer for the transaction and
receive from the customer a written agreement to the transaction. The firm must
furnish the customer a document describing the risks of investing in penny
stocks. The firm must tell the customer the current market quotation, if any,
for the penny stock and the compensation the firm and its broker will receive
for the trade. Finally, the firm must send monthly account statements showing
the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. Penny
stocks may trade infrequently, which means that it may be difficult to sell
penny stock shares once you own them. Because it may be difficult to find
quotations for certain penny stocks, they may be impossible to accurately price.
Investors in penny stocks should be prepared for the possibility that they may
lose their whole investment.
STOCK
TRANSFER

of the date of this offering the Company has not retained a Stock Transfer
Agent. The Company intends to hire a Stock Transfer Agent over the next 90

“Tarvaran” as its new registered independent public accountants. The appointment

REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Distribution
Royalty, Inc.
(A
Development Stage Company)
Las
Vegas, Nevada
We have
audited the accompanying balance sheet of Distribution Royalty, Inc. (a
development stage company), as of April 30, 2010 and the related statements of
operations, changes in stockholders’ (deficit) and cash flows from April,
22, 2010 (inception) to April 30, 2010, and the period 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 audit.
We
conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require
that we plan and perform the audit 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 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 audit provides 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 Distribution Royalty,, Inc. (a
development stage company) as of April, 30, 2010 and the results of its
operations and its cash flows from inception April, 22, 2010 through April, 30,
2010 and the period 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 2 to the financial
statements, the Company has limited source of revenue, and operations as of
April, 30, 2010 which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as
a going concern. Management’s plans concerning these matters are also described
in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

FOR
PERIOD FROM APRIL 22, 2010 (INCEPTION) TO APRIL 30, 2010
NOTE 1 -
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Distribution
Royalty, Inc. (a development stage company) (the “Company) was incorporated in
Nevada on April 22, 2010, to serve as a vehicle to effect a merger, exchange of
capital stock, asset acquisition or other business combination with a domestic
or foreign private business. As of April 30, 2010, the Company had not yet
commenced any formal business operations, and all activity to date relates to
the Company’s formation. The Company’s fiscal year end is April
30..
The
Company ability to commence operations is contingent upon its ability to
identify a prospective target business.
NOTE 2 -
GOING CONCERN ISSUES
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which
contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. However,
the Company has period end losses from operations from inception April 22, 2010
through April 30, 2010. During the period ended April 30, 2010 the
Company had accumulated a net loss of $34,093. Further, the Company
has inadequate working capital to maintain or develop its operations, and is
dependent upon funds from private investors and the support of certain
stockholders.
These
factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as
a going concern. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might result from the outcome of these
uncertainties. In this regard, Management is planning to raise any
necessary additional funds through loans and additional sales of its stock.
There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising additional
capital.
The
Company's ability to meet its obligations and continue as a going concern is
dependent upon its ability to obtain additional financing, achievement of
profitable operations. The Company cannot reasonably be expected to earn revenue
in the development stage of operations. The Company plans to pursue additional
financing, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to secure
financing when needed or to obtain such financing on terms satisfactory to the
Company, if at all.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The
Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of
America. Significant accounting policies are as follows:

TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR
PERIOD FROM APRIL 22, 2010 (INCEPTION) TO APRIL 30, 2010
Development
Stage
The
Company's financial statements are presented as those of a development stage
enterprise. Activities during the development stage primarily include
debt and equity based financing and further implementation of the business
plan. The Company will look to obtain additional debt and/or equity
related funding opportunities. The Company has not generated any revenues since
inception.
Use of
Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements. These estimates and assumptions also affect
the reported amounts of revenues, costs and expenses during the reporting
period. Management evaluates these estimates and assumptions on a
regular basis. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Risks and
uncertainties
The
Company's operations will be subject to significant risk and uncertainties
including financial, operational, regulatory and other risks associated with a
development stage company, including the potential risk of business
failure.
Cash and Cash
Equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of
three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had no cash equivalents
at April 30, 2010.
The
Company minimizes its credit risk associated with cash by periodically
evaluating the credit quality of its primary financial
institution. The balance at times may exceed federally insured
limits. At April 30, 2010, there were no balances that exceeded the
federally insured limit.
Income
Taxes
Deferred
income taxes are provided based on the provisions of ASC Topic 740, "Accounting for Income Taxes",
to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax
bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts based on
enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the
differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation
allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the
amount expected to be realized.

PERIOD FROM APRIL 22, 2010 (INCEPTION) TO APRIL 30, 2010
The
Company adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 740; "Accounting For Uncertainty In
Income Taxes-An Interpretation Of ASC Topic 740 ("ASC Topic
740"). ASC Topic 740 contains a two-step approach to recognizing and
measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the
tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence
indicates it is more likely than not, that the position will be sustained on
audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any.
The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount, which is
more than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The
Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating the Company's tax
positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments. At December
31, 2009, the Company did not record any liabilities for uncertain tax
positions.
Concentration of Credit
Risk
The
Company maintains its operating cash balances in banks. The Federal
Depository Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insures accounts at each institution up
to $250,000.
Share-Based
Compensation
The
Company applies SFAS No. 123 “Share-Based Payments” (“SFAS No. 123(R)”) to
share-based compensation, which requires the measurement of the cost of services
received in exchange for an award of an equity instrument based on the
grant-date fair value of the award. Compensation cost is recognized when
the event occurs. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model is used to
estimate the fair value of options granted.
Basic and Diluted Net Loss
Per Share
Net loss
per share was computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number
of common shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average
number of shares was calculated by taking the number of shares outstanding and
weighting them by the amount of time that they were outstanding. Diluted
net loss per share for the Company
is the same as basic net loss per share, as the inclusion of common stock
equivalents would be anti dilutive.
Fair Value of Financial
Instruments
The
Company's financial instruments consist primarily of cash,
accounts payable and accrued expenses, and debt.
The
carrying amounts of such financial instruments approximate their
respective estimated fair value due to the short-term maturities and
approximate market interest rates of these instruments. The
estimated fair value is not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company
would realize in a current market exchange or from future earnings or
cash flows.

The
Company adopted ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements (“ASC Topic 820”), which
defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and
expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The standard
provides a consistent definition of fair value which focuses on an exit price
that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in
an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement
date. The standard also prioritizes, within the measurement of fair
value, the use of market-based information over entity specific information and
establishes a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based on the
nature of inputs used in the valuation of an asset or liability as of the
measurement date.
The
three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements is defined as
follows:
·
|
Level
1 – inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for
identical assets or liabilities
in active markets;
|
·
|
Level
2 – inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar
assets and liabilities in active
markets, and inputs that are observable or the asset or liability other

INDEMNIFICATION
OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
We may
indemnify an officer or director who is made a party to any proceeding,
including a lawsuit, because of his position, if he acted in good faith and in a
manner he reasonably believed to be in our best interest. In certain cases, we
may advance expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding. To the extent
that the officer or director is successful on the merits in any such proceeding
as to which such person is to be indemnified, we must indemnify him/her against
all expenses incurred, including attorney's fees. With respect to a derivative
action, indemnity may be made only for expenses actually and reasonably incurred
in defending the proceeding, and if the officer or director is judged liable,
only by a court order. The indemnification is intended to be to the fullest
extent permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada.
40
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, may be permitted to directors or officers pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, we are informed that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, such indemnification is against public policy, as expressed in said
Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

UNDERTAKINGS
a. Rule
415 Offering. Include the following if the securities are registered pursuant to
Rule 415 under the Securities Act:
The
undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
1. To
file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
i.
To include any prospectus required by
section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
ii. To
reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date
of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment
thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change
in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the
total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was
registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum
offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the
Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume
and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering
price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective
registration statement.
41
iii. To
include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not
previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to
such information in the registration statement;
Provided however, that:
A. Paragraphs
(a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) of this section do not apply if the registration
statement is on Form S-8, and the information required to be included in a
post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with
or furnished to the Commission by the Company pursuant to section 13 or section
15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference
in the registration statement; and
B. Paragraphs
(a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) of this section do not apply if the
registration statement is on Form S-3 or Form F-3 and the information required
to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in
reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Company pursuant to
section 13 or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are
incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a
form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the
registration statement.
2.
That, for the purpose of determining any liability
under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.
3.
To remove from registration by means
of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which
remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
4.
If the Company is a foreign private issuer,
to file a post- effective amendment to the registration statement to include any
financial statements required by Item 8.A. of Form 20-F at the start of any
delayed offering or throughout a continuous offering. Financial statements and
information otherwise required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Act need not be
furnished, provided that the Company includes in the prospectus, by means of a
post-effective amendment, financial statements required pursuant to this
paragraph (a)(4) and other information necessary to ensure that all other
information in the prospectus is at least as current as the date of those
financial statements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to
registration statements on Form F-3, a post-effective amendment need not be
filed to include financial statements and information required by Section
10(a)(3) of the Act or Rule 3-19 of this chapter if such financial statements
and information are contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the
Commission by the Company pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the Form
F-3.
5.
That, for the purpose of determining
liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:
i.
If the Company is relying on
Rule 430B (Section 230.430B of this chapter):
A. Each
prospectus filed by the Company pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3)shall be deemed to be
part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was
deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and
42
B. Each
prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as
part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an
offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of
providing the information required by section 10(a) of the Securities Act of
1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as
of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after
effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the
offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability
purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such
date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement
relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that
prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no
statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the
registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated
by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the
registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale
prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in
the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration
statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date;
or
ii. If
the Company is subject to Rule 430C, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule
424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than
registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in
reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the
registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness.
Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or
prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document
incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement
or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser
with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any
statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was
part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately
prior to such date of first use.
6. That,
for the purpose of determining liability of the Company under the Securities Act
of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities: The
undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of
the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless
of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the
securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the
following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the
purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such
purchaser:
i.
Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of
the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed
pursuant to Rule 424;
43
ii. Any
free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the
undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned
registrant;
iii. The
portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing
material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided
by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be
permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the
provisions above, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy
as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore,
unenforceable.
In the
event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities, other than the
payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by one of our directors, officers, or
controlling persons in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding,
is asserted by one of our directors, officers, or controlling persons in
connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion
of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a
court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and we will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant
to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant has caused
this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned,
hereunto duly authorized, in the city of King, Province of Ontario,
on October 22 2010.
