Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that reflect the current views of our management with respect to future events. Any statements contained in this report that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “expects,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “intends,” “estimates,” “aims,” “plans,” “may,” “will,” “will continue,” “seeks,” “should,” “believe,” “potential” or the negative of such terms and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are based on current plans, estimates and projections, and therefore you should not place too much reliance on them. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement in light of new information or future events, although we intend to continue to meet our ongoing disclosure obligations under the U.S. securities laws and under other applicable laws. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and are generally beyond our control. We caution you that a number of important factors could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, the forward-looking statements. These factors include, among other factors: our ability (or inability) to continue as a going concern, the failure of our proposed merger with Cazador Acquisition Corporation Ltd. to close for any reason, the willingness of our controlling stockholders, TGR Capital, LLC and Enerfund, LLC, which are controlled by our Chairman and CEO, Mike Zoi, to continue investing in Net Element to fund our working capital requirements, our ability (or inability) to obtain additional financing in sufficient amounts or on acceptable terms when needed, our ability (or inability) to adequately address the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, development or acquisition of additional online media businesses, attracting and retaining competent management and other personnel, successful implementation of our business strategy, continued development and market acceptance of our technology, protection of our intellectual property, and successful integration and promotion of any business developed or acquired by us. If these or other risks and uncertainties (including those described in our Annual Report, as amended, on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and our subsequent filings with the Commission) materialize, or if the assumptions underlying any of these statements prove incorrect, our actual results may be materially different from those expressed or implied by such statements.

World Wide Web addresses contained in this report are for explanatory purposes only and they (and the content contained therein) do not form a part of and are not incorporated by reference into this Report.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization and Basis of Presentation

Net Element, Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”), formerly TOT Energy, Inc., was organized on February 6, 2004 under the laws of the State of Delaware under the name Splinex Technology, Inc., which was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Splinex, LLC, a Florida limited liability company that is currently known as TGR Capital, LLC (a company indirectly wholly-owned by our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Mike Zoi). On January 18, 2005, the Company merged with a subsidiary of Ener1, Inc., a public reporting company. Pursuant to that merger, the Company issued 5,000,000 shares of its common stock to Ener1, Inc., which then distributed those shares as a dividend to its shareholders. That distribution was registered with the Commission, which resulted in the Company becoming a public reporting company.

Since April 1, 2010, we have pursued a strategy to develop and acquire technology and applications for use in the online media industry. During September 2010, we changed our name to Net Element, Inc. in furtherance of our shift in business focus. As part of our strategy to develop an online media company, on December 14, 2010, we acquired Openfilm, LLC, a Florida limited liability company that is engaged in the development of technology and operation of a website that supports the advancement of independent film on the Internet. Additionally, on February 1, 2011, we acquired Motorsport, LLC, a Florida limited liability company that now holds 100% (initial purchase was for an 80% interest and we subsequently bought out the remaining minority position) of the outstanding common stock of Motorsport.com, Inc., a Florida corporation engaged in the operation of a news and information website relating to the international motorsport industry, and Music1, LLC, a Florida limited liability company that owns 97% of the membership interests in A&R Music Live, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company that owns and operates two websites that provide an online social community and marketplace for musicians, songwriters, producers and record companies and an opportunity to showcase artist talents. As a result of these acquisitions, we now operate several online media websites in the film, auto racing and emerging music talent markets.

On June 12, 2012, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Cazador Acquisition Corporation Ltd., a Cayman Islands limited corporation ("Cazador"). Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, the Company will merge (the "Merger") with and into Cazador, resulting in the Company ceasing to exist and Cazador continuing as the surviving company in the Merger (the "Surviving Company"). The Merger is intended to qualify as a tax-free reorganization. Cazador is a blank check company whose ordinary shares and warrants are listed on The NASDAQ Capital Market. Cazador was incorporated on April 2, 2010 for the purpose of effecting a merger, share capital exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more operating businesses or assets. Following the Merger, the Surviving Company is expected to retain the Company's ticker symbol "NETE" upon Nasdaq's approval of Cazador's listing application, and as promptly as practicable after the effective time of the Merger, the Surviving Company intends to change its name to "Net Element International, Inc."

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Commission for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and footnotes required for complete financial statements are not included herein. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented have been included. These results have been determined on the basis of generally accepted accounting principles and practices applied consistently with those used in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be reported for any particular quarterly period or the year ending December 31, 2012. It is recommended that the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2011 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Commission.

Basis of Consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Net Element, Inc., the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Openfilm, LLC and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Openfilm, Inc., Openfilm Studios, LLC and Zivos, LLC (Ukraine) the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiary Netlab Systems, LLC, its wholly-owned subsidiary Tech Solutions LTD (formerly known as Netlab Systems, LTD) (Cayman Islands) and the accounts of its representative offices in Russia and Ukraine, the accounts of our 100%-owned subsidiary NetLab Systems IP, LLC, the accounts of our 70%-owned subsidiary LegalGuru LLC, the accounts of our 75%-owned subsidiary Yapik LLC, the accounts of our 85%-owned subsidiary Splinex, LLC and its wholly-owned subsidiary IT Solutions LTD (formerly known as Splinex LTD)(Cayman Islands), the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiary Music1, LLC and its 97%-owned subsidiary A&R Music Live, LLC (Music1, LLC and A&R Music Live, LLC are sometimes together referred to in this Report as “Music”), and the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiary Motorsport, LLC and its wholly-owned subsidiary Motorsport.com, Inc. (the Company acquired the remaining 20% interest not owned in Motorsport.com, Inc. on January 10, 2012) and the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries OOO Net Element Russia and its wholly-owned subsidiaries OOO TOT Money and OOO Music1. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in this consolidation.

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 disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet date and the reported amounts of expenses for the period presented. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash

We maintain our U.S. Dollar-denominated cash in several non-interest bearing bank deposit accounts. All non-interest bearing transaction accounts are fully insured, regardless of the balance in the account, at all FDIC insured institutions. As such, our bank balances did not exceed FDIC limits at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

We maintain bank accounts in Russia, Ukraine and Cayman Islands associated with our offshore engineering offices. The following details the balances and countries where we maintain foreign bank balances:

Location	Country		US Dollar Equivalent Balance at 06/30/12		US Dollar Equivalent Balance at 12/31/11
OOO Net Element Russia		Russia	$	55,122	$	-
Netlab Systems, LLC Russian Representative Office		Russia	$	7,231	$	4,516
Netlab Systems, LLC Ukrainian Representative Office		Ukraine	$	10,982	$	4,178
Zivos, LLC (account closed June 27, 2012)		Ukraine	$	-	$	69
Tech Solutions, LTD (fka Netlab Systems, LTD)		Cayman Islands	$	1,264	$	971

Fixed Assets

We depreciate our furniture, servers, data center software and equipment over a term of 5 years. Computers and client software are depreciated over terms between 2 and 5 years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the economic life or terms of each lease. All of our assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis for financial statement purposes.

Intangible Assets

We capitalize our costs that are directly related to website development. These costs include platform services, engineering, Internet hosting, Internet streaming, content delivery network fees and general and administrative expenses to directly support engineering services from the point of start to the point the application, service or website is publicly launched.

Website development costs include projects that are significant in terms of functional value added to the site, product or service. A capitalized project would be closer to a full product launch than an incremental or point release update. Costs for updates are expensed as incurred. Capitalized costs are amortized to depreciation and amortization expense over twenty-four months on a straight-line basis. We also capitalize start-up projects from the point of start to the point the application, service or website is publicly launched. Amortization is straight-line over twenty-four months and charged to depreciation and amortization. Impairment is reviewed quarterly to ensure only viable active project costs are capitalized.

We also capitalize direct expenses associated with filing of patents and patent applications and amortize the capitalized intellectual property costs over five years beginning when the patent is approved.

Additionally, we capitalize the fair value of intangible assets acquired in business combinations. The Company performs valuations of assets acquired and liabilities assumed on each acquisition accounted for as a business combination and allocates the purchase price of each acquired business to its respective net tangible and intangible assets. Acquired intangible assets include: trade names, non-compete agreements, owned website names, customer relationships, technology, media content, and content publisher relationships.

Goodwill is recorded when the purchase price paid for an acquisition exceeds the estimated fair value of the net identified tangible and intangible assets acquired. Goodwill and certain intangible assets are assessed for impairment using fair value measurement techniques. Specifically, goodwill impairment is determined using a two-step process. The first step of the goodwill impairment test is to identify potential impairment by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its net book value (or carrying amount), goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not impaired and the second step of the impairment test is unnecessary.

If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step of the goodwill impairment test is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. The second step of the goodwill impairment test compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined in the same manner as the amount of goodwill recognized in a business combination. That is, the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the assets and liabilities of that unit (including any unrecognized intangible assets) as if the reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination and the fair value of the reporting unit was the purchase price paid to acquire the reporting unit. The impairment test for other intangible assets consists of a comparison of the fair value of the intangible asset with its carrying value. If the carrying value of the intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess.

Foreign Currency Transactions

We are subject to exchange rate risk in our foreign operations in Ukraine and Russia where we incur product development, engineering and website development and hosting costs. The Ukrainian and Russian engineering operations pay a majority of their operating expenses in their local currencies, exposing us to exchange rate risk. Ukrainian salaries and consulting fees are negotiated and paid in U.S. dollars. The majority of Russian salaries are negotiated and paid in U.S. dollars.

We do not engage in any currency hedging activities.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue when four basic criteria are met: persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement exists; performance of services has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. We consider persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement to be the receipt of a signed contract or insertion order. Collectability is assessed based on a number of factors, including transaction history with the customer and the credit worthiness of the customer. If it is determined that the collection is not reasonably assured, revenue is not recognized until collection becomes reasonably assured, which is generally upon receipt of cash. We record cash received in advance of revenue recognition as deferred revenue.

We periodically engage in transactions involving the exchange of certain advertising services for various goods and services from third parties (Barter transactions). These transactions are recorded at the estimated fair value of the goods or services received. Revenue from trade transactions is recognized when the related advertisements are broadcast. Expense is recognized when services or merchandise received are used.

Our revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were principally derived from the following services:

License Fees. License fees are generated from customers who utilize Launchpad to operate and manage on-line contests.

Service Fees. Service fee is generated primarily from A&R Music Live where aspiring artists pay industry professionals to review, critique and suggest improvements of music submitted on-line for review.

Advertising Revenue. Advertising revenue is generated by performance-based Internet advertising, such as cost-per-click, or CPC, in which an advertiser pays only when a user clicks on its advertisement that is displayed on our owned and operated websites; fees generated by users viewing third-party website banners and text-link advertisements; fees generated by enabling customer leads or registrations for partners; and fees from referring users to, or from users making purchases on, sponsors’ websites. In determining whether an arrangement exists, we ensure that a binding arrangement is in place, such as a standard insertion order or a fully executed customer-specific agreement. Obligations pursuant to our advertising revenue arrangements typically include a minimum number of impressions or the satisfaction of the other performance criteria. Revenue from performance-based arrangements, including referral revenues, is recognized as the related performance criteria are met.

In certain cases, we record revenue based on available and preliminary information from third parties. Amounts collected on the related receivables may vary from reported information based upon third party refinement of estimated and reported amounts owing that occurs typically within 30 days of the period end.

Subscription Services and Social Media Services. Subscription services revenue is generated through the sale of memberships to access content available on certain owned and operated websites and to be eligible to enter our contests. The majority of Openfilm’s memberships have a one month term and renew automatically at the end of each month, if not previously cancelled. Membership revenue is recognized as billed.

Net Loss Per Share

Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is determined using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents, consisting of shares issuable upon exercise of common stock options or warrants. In periods when losses are reported, the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Our financial instruments consist mainly of cash deposits, short-term payables and related party payables. We believe that the carrying amounts of third-party financial instruments approximate fair value, due to their short-term maturities.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We review our long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets may not be recoverable. No impairment losses were recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and the twelve months ended December 31, 2011.

Uncertain Tax Positions

We review uncertain tax positions on an ongoing basis and related reserves are adjusted in light of changing facts and circumstances, including progress of tax audits, developments in case law, and expirations of statutes of limitations. Based on information currently available, we anticipate that over the next ninety days ongoing audit activity should be resolved relating to uncertain tax positions (See Note 14).

NOTE 2. GOING CONCERN CONSIDERATIONS

Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. We had negative cash flows from continuing operating activities of $2,705,673 for the six months ended June 30, 2012, and a working capital deficit of $2,179,474 and accumulated deficit of $55,805,741 at June 30, 2012. We have historically been primarily dependent upon TGR Capital, LLC, Enerfund, LLC or Mike Zoi (as a result of his controlling interest in TGR and Enerfund) to fund our operations. See Note 13.

Substantially all of the Company’s revenues to-date have been generated by the sale of premium services (subscription and pay per view fees), licensing fees and advertising. However, in the future, the Company plans to increasingly generate most of its revenues from the mobile commerce payment processing platform being developed by its subsidiary TOT Money, and from advertising. Failure to successfully develop that payment processing platform and enter into contracts with mobile phone carriers and content providers to use that platform, or failure to expand the Company’s base of advertisers or generate and maintain high quality content on its websites could harm the Company’s revenue prospects. The Company faces all of the risks inherent in a new business, including management’s potential underestimation of initial and ongoing costs, and potential delays and other problems in connection with developing its technologies, Internet websites and operations.

Management is continuing with its plan to build a diversified portfolio of online media and technology assets. Management believes that its current operating strategy, combined with continued funding by our primary stockholder, will provide the opportunity for us to continue as a going concern; however, there is no assurance this will occur. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.

Our independent auditors’ report on our consolidated financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2011 contains an explanatory paragraph about our ability to continue as a going concern. Management believes that its current operating strategy, as described herein, provides the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern; however, there is no assurance this will occur.

NOTE 3. SEGMENT INFORMATION

At June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2011, our sole reportable business segment was our online businesses in music, film, motorsport and professional marketing services.

The Company recently formed its subsidiary OOO TOT Money (a Russian limited liability company) in June 2012 to adapt the existing revenue sharing platform used in Openfilm.com to a mobile commerce payment platform. The Company plans to increasingly generate most of its revenues from the mobile commerce payment platform being developed by TOT Money. TOT Money initially plans to launch operations in Russia during the third quarter, using its mobile commerce payment platform to facilitate payments using SMS (short message services, which is a text messaging service). Future reporting will segment TOT Money from the online media business once TOT Money begins operations.

Motorsport, LLC purchased its 80% interest in Motorsport.com, Inc. on December 17, 2010. We paid Enerfund an aggregate of $130,000 (exclusive of a $20,000 contingent payment relating to the purchase of certain domain names) and agreed to take over responsibility for the obligations of Motorsport, LLC contained in the Stock Purchase Agreement dated December 17, 2010 pursuant to which Motorsport, LLC acquired its 80% interest in Motorsport.com, Inc., which obligations included, among other things, the aggregate payment to the original stockholders of Motorsport.com, Inc. of an additional $450,000 payable in four quarterly installments, without interest, commencing on December 1, 2013. The domain names and related registrations were not purchased, as required, by June 16, 2011; hence the contingent amount ($20,000) will not be paid. The original sellers have a security interest in the domain names of Motorsport.com, Inc. as collateral for payment of the additional purchase price.

On January 10, 2012, the terms of the December 17, 2010 Stock Purchase Agreement were amended, reducing the $450,000 payment to $300,000, payable in four annual cash installments of $75,000 commencing January 10, 2012, plus the issuance of 1,333,333 shares of the Company’s common stock on January 10, 2012. In addition, on January 10, 2012, Motorsport exercised its option to acquire the remaining 20% interest in Motorsport.com, Inc. held by the original stockholders for the issuance to the sellers of an aggregate of 3,333,333 shares of the Company’s common stock.

NOTE 5. JOINT VENTURES AND NEW WHOLLY OWNED SUBSIDIARIES

We invested $56,000 in exchange for our 51% of the share capital in the joint venture. Korlea-TOT was expected to engage in marketing and trading of oil and natural gas in Eastern Europe. To date, the joint venture has not engaged in any significant operating activity. We deconsolidated Korlea-TOT as of January 1, 2011 and we have adjusted the investment to its net realizable value. We intend to sell our ownership interest in Korlea-TOT to Korlea in exchange for a cash payment equal to 51% of the cash balance in the joint venture on the date of sale. Consummation of this transaction is subject to obtaining certain approvals and making certain filings overseas. We expect that this transaction will be completed during 2012.

On March 17, 2011, we formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Splinex, LLC, a Florida limited liability company. Splinex, LLC is intended to develop technology and web services for use in our products and services and certain other licensed applications focused in the areas of three dimensional (3D) imagery and video. During 2011, Splinex issued 15% of its equity to certain of its employees and consultants as incentive and equity based compensation.

Effective as of March 29, 2011, we entered into a joint venture arrangement (the “LegalGuru JV Agreement”) with Curtis Wolfe in connection with the formation of LegalGuru LLC, a Florida limited liability company. The Company owns a 70% interest in LegalGuru LLC and Mr. Wolfe, who is a director and Secretary of the Company and Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of LegalGuru LLC, through Lobos Advisors, LLC (a company of which Mr. Wolfe is the President and managing member), owns a 30% interest in LegalGuru LLC.

Upon launch of the website and commencement of commercial operations, Mr. Wolfe’s salary was to increase to $20,000 per month ($15,000 from LegalGuru LLC and $5,000 from the Company), from which we would have withheld an amount equal to $100,000 over one year as part of Mr. Wolfe’s investment obligations in LegalGuru LLC.

As of June 30, 2012, Mr. Wolfe had invested $100,000 in LegalGuru LLC and the Company had invested $974,590 in LegalGuru LLC.

NOTE 6. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

We capitalize certain costs for website development projects. Specifically, we capitalize projects that are significant in terms of functional value added to the site. A capitalized project would be closer to a full product launch than an incremental or point release update. Costs for updates are expensed as incurred. Capitalized costs are amortized to depreciation and amortization expense over twenty-four months on a straight-line basis. We also capitalize start-up projects from the point of start to the point the application, service or website is publicly launched. Amortization is straight-line over twenty-four months and charged to depreciation and amortization. Impairment is reviewed quarterly to ensure only viable active project costs are capitalized.

Capitalized website development costs are included in other assets. For the three months ended June 30, 2012, we amortized $67,758 to depreciation and amortization expense leaving a balance of $473,689 for capitalized website development. For the three months ended June 30, 2012, we amortized $16,008 in patent and other intangible expenses, leaving a balance of $245,930 for capitalized patent costs and other intangible assets on that date. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, we amortized $94,268 of capitalized website development to depreciation and amortization expense. Additionally, we amortized $32,016 of patent and other intangible assets to expense for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Additionally, on February 1, 2011, we acquired Motorsport, LLC and Music1, LLC from a related party (Enerfund) and we assumed the balance sheets of Motorsport, LLC and Music1, LLC with existing intangible assets as follows:

Net Element developed and launched in the fourth quarter of 2011 a beta test version of the Yapik mobile application on Android and iOS platforms and Net Element launched a beta test version of the website legalguru.com in the second quarter of 2012. In addition, through its subsidiary TOT Money, Net Element is developing a mobile commerce payment platform for Russia and other emerging markets.

Net Element believes that its technology platforms and development expertise will enable them to enhance the digital distribution of content in a variety of industries. Accordingly, Net Element is exploring the possibility of acquiring other Internet portal properties and companies with similar goals of connecting people in various vertical markets, such as the medical, educational and sports markets. From time to time, Net Element may be engaged in various discussions to acquire businesses or formulate joint venture or other arrangements. Net Element’s policy is not to disclose discussions or potential transactions until definitive agreements have been executed. Where appropriate, acquisitions will be financed with Net Element’s equity securities, which may result in substantial dilution to existing stockholders.

On June 12, 2012, Net Element entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Cazador Acquisition Corporation Ltd., a Cayman Islands limited corporation (“Cazador”), pursuant to which, if all required conditions are satisfied, Net Element will merge with and into Cazador, with Cazador continuing as the surviving company in the merger. Cazador is a blank check company whose ordinary shares and warrants are listed on The NASDAQ Capital Market. Consummation of the merger is subject to a number of conditions, including, among others: the registration statement on Form S-4 filed by Cazador with the Commission registering the Cazador shares to be issued to Net Element stockholders pursuant to the merger must be declared effective by the Commission; Cazador must have at least $23.5 million of cash held in its trust account (after paying all holders of Cazador shares who exercise their redemption right, but excluding payments to be made for transaction fees and related expenses and pay-off of related party debt); Cazador must change its jurisdiction of incorporation from the Cayman Islands to Delaware; the transaction must be approved by holders of at least two-thirds of the Cazador shares outstanding and entitled to vote; and the transaction must be approved by holders of a majority of the Net Element shares outstanding and entitled to vote. If all required conditions are not satisfied and the merger is not consummated before October 14, 2012, then Cazador will be required to repurchase all outstanding Cazador shares not held by its sponsor and to liquidate its trust account and the merger will not be consummated. If all required conditions to consummate the merger are satisfied, then each issued and outstanding share of Net Element common stock (other than shares held by Net Element as treasury stock or by any of its direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, which will be cancelled at the effect time of the merger, and Net Element shares with respect to which appraisal rights, to the extent available under the Delaware General Corporation Law, are properly exercised and not withdrawn) will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive 1/40 (or 0.025) of a Cazador share, and at least $23.5 million of cash (before repaying approximately $12.2 million in indebtedness of Net Element which must be repaid soon following the merger) in Cazador’s trust account would be available to the surviving entity in the merger for working capital and business development needs. There is no assurance that all (or any) required conditions will be satisfied or that the merger will be consummated.

Since Net Element’s inception, it has not generated significant revenues, and it has incurred significant operating losses. Net Element will require additional capital to develop its business operations (for additional information, see “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below). Substantially all of Net Element’s revenues to-date have been generated by the sale of premium services (subscription and pay per view fees), licensing fees and advertising. However, in the future, Net Element plans to increasingly generate most of its revenues from the mobile commerce payment processing platform being developed by its subsidiary TOT Money, and from advertising. Failure to successfully develop that payment processing platform and enter into contracts with mobile phone carriers and content providers to use that platform, or failure to expand Net Element’s base of advertisers or generate and maintain high quality content on its websites could harm Net Element’s revenue prospects. Net Element faces all of the risks inherent in a new business, including management’s potential underestimation of initial and ongoing costs, and potential delays and other problems in connection with developing its technologies, Internet websites and operations.

At June 30, 2012, we had an accumulated deficit of $55,805,741, negative working capital of $2,179,474 and cash of $1,534,448. We had a net loss of $4,531,708 for the six months ended June 30, 2012, a net loss of $22,043,310 for the six months ended June 30, 2011, and further losses are anticipated. We had negative cash flows from operations of $2,705,673 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and negative cash flows from operations of $1,530,687 for the six months ended June 30, 2011.

We have historically been primarily dependent upon TGR Capital, LLC, Enerfund, LLC or Mike Zoi (as a result of his controlling interest in TGR and Enerfund) to fund our operations.

On February 24, 2012, the Company entered into a Shareholder Rights Agreement (the “Shareholder Rights Agreement”) with Mark Global Corporation, Kenges Rakishev, Mike Zoi, TGR Capital, LLC, MZ Capital, LLC (Delaware), MZ Capital, LLC (Florida) and Enerfund, LLC. The companies TGR Capital, LLC, MZ Capital, LLC (Delaware), MZ Capital, LLC (Florida) and Enerfund, LLC are directly or indirectly owned and controlled by Mike Zoi. Pursuant to the Shareholder Rights Agreement, the Shareholders agreed to certain corporate governance matters pertaining to the Company and the Company granted registration rights to each of Mark Global Corporation, Kenges Rakishev, TGR Capital, LLC, Mike Zoi and certain of their assignees (collectively, the “Holders”). Upon demand by any of the Holders, the Company agreed to register from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission for resale (i) all shares of common stock of the Company from time to time owned by Mark Global Corporation, Kenges Rakishev or any other person or entity controlled by Kenges Rakishev, and (ii) all shares of common stock of the Company from time to time owned by TGR Capital, LLC, Mike Zoi or any other person or entity controlled by Mike Zoi. The Company also granted the Holders piggyback registration rights with respect to all of such shares. The Company agreed to bear substantially all expenses incidental to the registration rights granted pursuant to the Shareholder Rights Agreement. The Shareholder Rights Agreement became effective at 12:01 a.m. (New York time) on April 23, 2012 which was the first business day immediately following the date on which Mark Global Corporation, together with its affiliates, acquired beneficial ownership (as determined under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) of greater than 10% of the Company’s common stock. For additional information, see Note 13 of the accompanying Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

On April 6, 2012, the Company entered into a Joint Venture Agreement with Igor Yakovlevich Krutoy. Pursuant to the Joint Venture Agreement, the parties agreed to form a limited liability company under the laws of the Russian Federation named Music1 (“Music1 Russia”), which would be owned 67% by the Company’s newly formed subsidiary Net Element Russia and 33% by a newly formed company controlled by Mr. Krutoy which is to be named K1 Holdings. The Company agreed to contribute to Music1 Russia (i) exclusive, non-assignable, royalty-free, perpetual, world-wide rights to use and operate the Internet domain www.music1.com (the “Website”), (ii) non-exclusive, non-assignable, limited, royalty-free, perpetual, world-wide rights to use the Company’s Launchpad computer system technology for the operation of Internet based contests, (iii) non-exclusive, non-assignable, limited, royalty-free, perpetual, world-wide rights to integrate the Company’s Music Brain technology into the Website and (iv) not less than $2 million in the form of an interest-free loan to maintain the operations of Music1 Russia. Mr. Krutoy also agreed to (i) provide monetization opportunities, propositions and other business development introductions identified by Music1 Russia as having significant business potential and (ii) act as an advisor and Chairman of the Board of Directors of Music1 Russia for a period of two years. As consideration for such advisory services and services as Chairman of the Board of Directors of Music1 Russia, the Company agreed to issue Mr. Krutoy 5 million shares of restricted stock of the Company, with half of such shares issued to Mr. Krutoy within one month after he becomes Chairman of Music1 Russia and the other half of such shares issued to Mr. Krutoy within one month after the start of the second calendar year of his term as Chairman of Music1 Russia. In accordance with the Joint Venture Agreement, on June 6, 2012 Mr. Krutoy entered into a Subscription Agreement to purchase 13,333,333 shares of Net Element Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $2 million, which amount was funded on June 6, 2012.

On April 24, 2012, the Company entered into an amended and restated joint venture agreement with an effective date of December 31, 2011, which amends and restates the joint venture agreement originally entered into with Mr. Wolfe as of March 29, 2011 in connection with the formation of LegalGuru LLC. The Company owns a 70% interest in LegalGuru LLC and Mr. Wolfe, who is a director and Secretary of the Company and Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of LegalGuru LLC, through Lobos Advisors, LLC (a company of which Mr. Wolfe is the President and managing member), owns a 30% interest in LegalGuru LLC. The amended and restated joint venture agreement requires the Company and Mr. Wolfe to invest up to an aggregate of $900,000 in LegalGuru LLC, with Mr. Wolfe investing up to an aggregate of $100,000 and the Company investing up to an aggregate of $800,000. The original joint venture agreement required the Company and Mr. Wolfe to invest up to an aggregate of $1,000,000 in LegalGuru LLC, with Mr. Wolfe investing up to an aggregate of $200,000 and the Company investing up to an aggregate of $800,000. In connection with the $100,000 reduction in the amount required to be invested in LegalGuru LLC by Mr. Wolfe, Mr. Wolfe agreed to maintain his current salary of $10,000 per month, with $8,000 of such amount paid in cash and $2,000 paid in stock options of the Company, until LegalGuru LLC generates at least $500,000 in revenue. As of June 30, 2012, Mr. Wolfe had invested $100,000 in LegalGuru LLC and the Company had invested $974,590 in LegalGuru LLC.

On May 14, 2012, the Company entered into a $500,000 principal amount Promissory Note and Loan Agreement with Enerfund maturing November 1, 2012. The interest rate is 5% per annum.

Net Element recently formed its subsidiary OOO TOT Money (a Russian limited liability company) in June 2012 to adapt the existing revenue sharing platform used in Openfilm.com to a mobile commerce payment platform. Net Element plans to increasingly generate most of its revenues from the mobile commerce payment platform being developed by TOT Money. TOT Money initially plans to launch operations in Russia, using its mobile commerce payment platform to facilitate payments using SMS (short message services, which is a text messaging service).

On July 3, 2012, OOO Net Element Russia entered into a Loan Agreement with OOO Sat-Moscow, pursuant to which Net Element Russia was loaned 150 million Russian rubles (or approximately US$4,636,928 based on the currency exchange rate as of the close of business on June 4, 2012). The loan is intended to be used by Net Element Russia for working capital and the development of the business of TOT Money. The interest rate under the Loan Agreement is 8.15% per annum and outstanding principal and interest is due on or before November 1, 2012. Sat-Moscow is indirectly controlled by Kenges Rakishev, a director of the Company.

As a result of our history of recurring losses and our accumulated deficit and stockholders’ deficiency, the audit report of our independent registered public accounting firm as of December 31, 2011 contains a statement expressing substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. Management recognizes that we must raise capital sufficient to fund business activities until such time as we can generate sufficient revenues and net cash flows in amounts necessary to enable us to continue contemplated operations, of which there can be no assurance. We have historically been dependent upon TGR Capital, LLC, Enerfund, LLC or Mike Zoi (as a result of his controlling interest in TGR and Enerfund) to fund our operations and we are exploring additional sources of financing in order to meet our financial requirements. If our proposed merger with Cazador is consummated, there would be at least $23.5 million of cash (before repaying approximately $12.2 million in indebtedness of Net Element which must be repaid soon following the merger) in Cazador’s trust account available to the surviving entity in the merger for working capital and business development needs (see “Overview; Recent Developments” above for additional information). However, there is no assurance that the proposed merger will be consummated. As of the date this Report was filed with the Commission, management expects that our cash flows from operations and the $2 million subscription received from Igor Yakovlevich Krutoy will be sufficient to meet our financial requirements through most of the third fiscal quarter of 2012. Management currently believes that we will require an additional $13.7 million in financing to continue operations as currently conducted and to pay for anticipated capital expenditures over the next 12 months. Additional funds may be raised through debt financing and/or the issuance of equity securities, there being no assurance that any type of financing on terms satisfactory to us will be available or otherwise occur. Debt financing must be repaid regardless of whether we generate revenues or cash flows from operations and may be secured by substantially all of our assets. Any equity financing or debt financing that requires the issuance of equity securities or warrants to the lender would cause the percentage ownership by our current stockholders to be diluted, which dilution may be substantial. Also, any additional equity securities issued may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing stockholders. If such financings are not available when required or are not available on acceptable terms, we may be unable to implement our business plans or take advantage of business opportunities, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations and may ultimately require us to suspend or cease operations.

Off-balance sheet arrangements

At June 30, 2012, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4) of Regulation S-K.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

None.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

As of the end of the period covered by this Report, our management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because there are a limited number of personnel employed and we cannot have an adequate segregation of duties, and due to material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting as discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. Accordingly, management cannot provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objective. Management works to mitigate these risks by being personally involved in all substantive transactions and attempts to obtain verification of transactions and accounting policies and treatments involving our operations, including those overseas. We are in the process of reviewing and, where necessary, modifying controls and procedures throughout the Company, particularly in light of our recent acquisitions and joint ventures and the continued integration of these businesses. We have contracted to install new financial systems and that process is currently expected to be completed by December 31, 2012. We will continue to address deficiencies as resources permit.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2012, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal proceedings

Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is currently a party to any pending legal proceeding, nor is any of their respective property the subject of a currently pending legal proceeding, the outcome of which would have a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Subject to the items discussed below, there have been no material changes in risk factors during 2012 through the date of this Report from those previously discussed in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. In reading and evaluating the information set forth in this Report, in addition to the considering and evaluating the items discussed below, we refer you to the issues, uncertainties and risk factors disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. The following modifies, supplements and/or updates the risk factors reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 due to events or conditions during 2012 through the date of this Report:

Our financial condition creates doubt whether we will continue as a going concern. If we do not continue as a going concern, investors may lose their entire investment.

Since our inception, we have incurred significant operating losses, and, as of June 30, 2012, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $55.8 million and a working capital deficit of approximately $2.2 million. We incurred net losses totaling $4.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and $24.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. Our independent registered public accounting firm, in its report for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, included an emphasis of matter paragraph regarding the substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. While we believe we have sufficient capital resources to fund our current operations through most of the third fiscal quarter of 2012, we will require additional capital to develop our business operations. We have historically been dependent upon TGR Capital, LLC, Enerfund, LLC and our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Mike Zoi (as a result of his controlling interests in TGR Capital, LLC and Enerfund, LLC), to fund our operations and we are exploring additional sources of financing in order to meet our financial requirements. As of the date this Report was filed with the Commission, management expects that our cash flows from operations and remaining proceeds from a $2 million investment in Net Element by Igor Yakovlevich Krutoy, which was received on June 6, 2012, will be sufficient to meet our financial requirements through most of the third fiscal quarter of 2012. We currently believe that we will require an additional $13.7 million in financing to continue operations as currently conducted and to pay for currently anticipated capital expenditures over the next 12 months. Additional funds may be raised through debt financing and/or the issuance of equity securities, there being no assurance that any type of financing on terms satisfactory to us will be available or otherwise occur. Debt financing must be repaid regardless of whether we generate revenues or cash flows from operations and may be secured by substantially all of our assets. Any equity financing or debt financing that requires the issuance of equity securities or warrants to the lender would cause the percentage ownership by our current stockholders to be diluted, which dilution may be substantial. Also, any additional equity securities issued may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing stockholders. If such financings are not available when required or are not available on acceptable terms, we may be unable to implement our business plans or take advantage of business opportunities, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects and may ultimately require us to suspend or cease operations, which could cause investors to lose the entire amount of their investment.

Our failure to successfully develop the business of our subsidiary TOT Money may harm our revenue and business prospects.

We recently formed our subsidiary OOO TOT Money (a Russian limited liability company) in June 2012 to adapt the existing revenue sharing platform used in Openfilm.com to a mobile commerce payment platform. We plan to increasingly generate most of our revenues from the mobile commerce payment platform being developed by TOT Money. TOT Money initially plans to launch operations in Russia, using its mobile commerce payment platform to facilitate payments using SMS (short message services, which is a text messaging service). The SMS payment processing market in Russia is primarily controlled by four companies, each of which is substantially larger than us, has more established operations than us and has significantly greater resources than us. In order to successfully enter that market, we must convince mobile phone carriers and content providers to use TOT Money’s platform over competitive platforms that may already be in use. Failure to successfully develop TOT Money’s payment processing platform and enter into contracts with mobile phone carriers and content providers to use that platform may harm our revenue and business prospects.

Our failure to generate and maintain sufficient high quality content on our websites may negatively affect the amount of traffic to those websites and, as a result, adversely affect our revenue and business prospects.

Our success depends in part on our ability to provide consumers with high quality content on our websites. However, we may not be able to provide users the information they seek if the information on our websites is not up-to-date. If we are unable to provide consumers with the information they seek, or if they can find equivalent content on other websites or publications, they may stop or reduce their use of our websites or we may not be able to increase their use of our websites. If our user traffic declines, we may have more difficulty attracting third parties to advertise on such websites, which would negatively affect our revenue and business prospects.

If we fail to increase the number of advertisers on our websites, our revenue and business prospects will be harmed.

In the year ended December 31, 2011, substantially all of our revenues were generated by the sale of premium services (subscription and pay per view fees), licensing fees (primarily from Launchpad) and advertising. However, in the future, we plan to increasingly generate more of our revenues from advertising. As a result, our ability to grow our business depends in part on our ability to maintain and expand our base of viewers and advertisers on our websites. To do so, we must convince prospective advertisers of the benefits of our product and services offerings, including those who may not be familiar with our products or services. We must also convince existing and prospective advertisers alike that our advertising products and services will benefit them. Many of these businesses may be more accustomed to using more traditional methods of advertising, such as newspapers, magazines or print yellow pages directories. Failure to maintain and expand our base of advertisers on our websites could harm our revenue and business prospects.

We may experience attrition in our advertisers in the ordinary course of business resulting from several factors, including losses to competitors, lower priced competitors, perceptions that our advertising solutions are unnecessary or ineffective, declining advertising budgets, closures and bankruptcies. If our advertisers increase their rates of non-renewal or if we experience significant advertiser attrition or contract breach, or if we are unable to attract new advertisers in numbers greater than the number of advertisers that we lose, our client base will decrease and our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations would be negatively affected.

Poor perception of our brand, business or industry could harm our reputation and adversely affect our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

The success of our business depends in part on our reputation within our industries and with consumers. Because our business is transforming traditional content creation and distribution models and is therefore not easily understood by casual observers, our brand, business and reputation is vulnerable to poor perception. For example, perception that the quality of our content may not be the same or better than that of other published Internet content, even if baseless, can damage our reputation. We may be the subject of unflattering reports in blogs, video blogs and the media about our business and our business model. While disruptive businesses are often criticized early on in their life cycles, we believe our business may be more frequently targeted than most because of the nature of the business we are disrupting — namely the traditional broadcast, print and publication media. Any damage to our reputation could harm our ability to obtain and retain contracts with mobile phone carriers, content providers, advertisers and other customers, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition and business.

Our business is subject to complex and evolving U.S. and foreign laws and regulations regarding privacy, data protection and other matters. Many of these laws and regulations are subject to change and uncertain interpretations, and could result in claims, changes to our business practices, increased cost of operations or declines in user growth or engagement, or otherwise harm our business.

We are subject to a number of foreign and domestic laws and regulations that affect companies conducting business on the Internet and companies transmitting user information via text message or other electronic means, many of which are still evolving and the interpretation of which are often uncertain. These existing and proposed laws and regulations can be costly to comply with and can delay or impede the development of new products, increase our operating costs, require significant management time and attention and subject us to claims or other remedies, including fines or demands that we modify or cease existing business practices, or could otherwise have an adverse impact on our business.

Our operating results and financial condition may fluctuate which could negatively affect the price of our stock.

Our operating results could vary significantly from quarter to quarter and year to year because of a variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control. As a result, comparing our operating results on a period-to-period basis may not be meaningful and the market price of our common stock may be negatively affected. The following factors, among others, may contribute to the variability of our quarterly and annual results and negatively affect the market price of our common stock:

our ability to secure contracts with mobile phone carriers and content providers to use the mobile commerce payment processing platform being developed by TOT Money;

our ability to attract new advertisers and retain existing advertisers;

the effects of changes in search engine placement and prominence of our websites;

the effects of increased competition on our business;

our ability to successfully expand in existing markets and enter new markets;

the impact of worldwide economic conditions, including the resulting effect on consumer spending and the level of advertising spending by businesses;

our ability to protect our intellectual property;

our ability to maintain and increase traffic to our websites;

our ability to keep pace with changes in technology;

the success of our sales and marketing efforts;

costs associated with defending intellectual property infringement and other claims and related judgments or settlements;

changes in government licensing and regulation affecting our business;

interruptions in service and any related impact on our reputation;

the attraction and retention of qualified employees and key personnel;

our ability to choose and effectively manage third-party service providers;

the impact of fluctuations in currency exchange rates;

our ability to successfully manage and integrate any acquisitions of businesses, solutions or technologies;

the effects of natural or man-made catastrophic events;

changes in consumer behavior;

our ability to increase the effectiveness of our internal controls; and

changes in our tax rates or exposure to additional tax liabilities.

If we fail to complete our proposed merger transaction with Cazador, it could adversely affect us.

On June 12, 2012, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Cazador Acquisition Corporation Ltd. (see “Overview; Recent Developments” under Part I, Item 2 of this Report). We are subject to certain risks related to the proposed merger, including the following:

the failure of the proposed merger to close for any reason, including the risks that required approvals by Cazador stockholders may not be obtained, a significant number of Cazador stockholders may exercise their redemption right leaving less than $23.5 million of cash in Cazador’s trust account, all required conditions to consummation of the merger may not occur before October 14, 2012 (which would require Cazador to repurchase all outstanding Cazador shares not held by its sponsor and to liquidate its trust account) and/or other closing conditions may not be satisfied or timely satisfied;

the Cazador shares to be issued to Net Element stockholders pursuant to the merger may not be approved and authorized for listing on The NASDAQ Capital Market;

the merger, if consummated, may have adverse impacts on the markets for the surviving company’s products and services;

the employees of Net Element and Cazador may not be combined and integrated successfully;

the surviving company may experience increased operating costs and business disruption following the merger, including adverse effects on employee retention and on business relationships with third parties;

following closing of the merger, the surviving company may be unable to meet NASDAQ’s listing requirements;

following closing of the merger, the surviving company’s business may not perform as anticipated, including the risk that the surviving company may continue to not generate significant revenues and/or may continue to incur significant operating losses;

we must pay certain costs related to the proposed merger, including the fees and/or expenses of legal, accounting and financial advisors, even if the proposed merger is not completed;

our management and employees’ attention may be diverted from day-to-day operations which may disrupt our business;

our stockholders will receive 1/40 (or 0.025) of a Cazador share for each share of our common stock despite any changes in the market value of our common stock; and

if we are unable to complete the merger, the investment community could have a negative perception of us and our business.

Additional Information Regarding the Proposed Merger

In connection with the proposed merger, Cazador and Net Element have prepared and filed with the Commission a joint proxy statement/prospectus, which is included in a registration statement on Form S-4 that has been filed by Cazador with the Commission. When completed, a definitive joint proxy statement/prospectus and a form of proxy will be mailed to the stockholders of Net Element and the stockholders of Cazador. Before making any voting decision, stockholders are urged to read the joint proxy statement/prospectus carefully and in its entirety because it will contain important information about the proposed merger. Stockholders will be able to obtain, without charge, a copy of the joint proxy statement/prospectus and other relevant documents filed with the Commission when they become available through the Commission’s website at http://www.sec.gov. Stockholders will also be able to obtain, without charge, a copy of the joint proxy statement/prospectus and other relevant documents when they become available by contacting Net Element’s Chief Financial Officer, Jonathan New, at 1450 S. Miami Avenue, Miami, FL 33130, telephone number (305) 507-8808, or from Net Element’s website at http://www.netelement.com.
