Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Scores Holding Company Inc., formerly Internet Advisory Corporation and (the Company”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-K. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation (consisting of normal recurring accruals) have been included. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Operating results expected for the six months ended June 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2009. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Going Concern

Scores Holding Company, Inc. and Subsidiaries (“SCRH”) has incurred losses totaling $(6,108,937) through June 30, 2009 and has a working capital deficit of $(217,814) at June 30, 2009. Because of these conditions, SCRH will require additional working capital to develop business operations. SCRH intends to raise additional working capital through the continued licensing of the brand with its current and new operators and to take on operations in larger cities with greater demand for our product through acquisitions. There are no assurances that SCRH will be able to achieve the level of revenues adequate to generate sufficient cash flow from operations to support SCRHs’ working capital requirements. To the extent that funds generated from any future use of licensing, are insufficient, SCRH will have to raise additional working capital. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available, or if available, will be on terms acceptable to SCRH. If adequate working capital is not available SCRH may not increase its operations.

These conditions raise substantial doubt about SCRHs’ ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should SCRHs’ be unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Principles

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts reported on the balance sheets for cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses, deferred revenue and licensee receivable approximate fair value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company earned royalties revenues from four licensees (Chicago, New Orleans, Baltimore and AYA) who are unrelated from management of the Company. During the six month ended June 30, 2009 period, royalties earned from unrelated licensees amounted to $87,618 and there is $24,702 due and outstanding as of June 30, 2009. Our Baltimore and Chicago licensee account for the majority of our revenues; in 2009 Baltimore and Chicago accounted for 33% and 28% and in 2008 they accounted for 21% and 23%, respectively. Our Las Vegas club was sold and ceased operations in May 2008, accounted for 44% of our revenues in 2008. Our AYA, Scoreslive.com licensee website is still in the development stage since 2007, it has accounted for a minimal amount of our total royalty revenues to date for the 2009 and 2008 periods.

We received $100,000 in advance cash royalty payments from our affiliated licensee in New York during the six month period 2009. The Company applied approximately $30,000 of these advance payments towards the 2009 May and June royalties due. The $70,000 advance payment balance will be applied towards future royalties.

At June 30, 2009, Baltimore and New Orleans owed the Company $18,000 and $12,000 in unpaid accrued royalties. Due to the unstable chain of events with our former Scores East and West affiliates in December 2008 which may have adversely effected business operations in Baltimore and New Orleans, a reserve for the entire amounts due from Baltimore and New Orleans were provided. During the current period 2009, the Company settled with Baltimore on the outstanding royalty due and continues to settle all outstanding balances with New Orleans. For reporting purposes, the Company did not report any revenues from New Orleans during the three months ended June 30, 2009.

New Accounting Pronouncements

On May 28, 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, Subsequent Events (“FAS 165”). Under FAS 165, companies are required to evaluate events and transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before the date the financial statements are issued, or available to be issued in the case of non-public entities. FAS 165 requires entities to recognize in the financial statements the effect of all events or transactions that provide additional evidence of conditions that existed at the balance sheet date, including the estimates inherent in the financial preparation process. Entities shall not recognize the impact of events or transactions that provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the balance sheet date but arose after that date. FAS 165 also requires entities to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. FAS 165 was effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Corporation adopted the provisions of FAS 165 for the quarter ended June 30, 2009, as required, and adoption did not have a material impact on the Corporation’s financial statements taken as a whole.

Scores Holding Company Inc. and Subsidiaries

(Unaudited)

In June 2009, the FASB approved the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification”), and issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 168, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, a replacement of FASB Statement No.162” (“SFAS 168”). SFAS 168 replaces SFAS 162 to establish the Codification as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in preparation of financial statements in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States. SFAS 168 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. We do not expect the adoption of SFAS168 to have an impact on our financial position or results of operations.

We do not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting or reporting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on our financial statements.

Note 3 - Related party receivable

On January 27, 2009, the Company and Entertainment Management Services, Inc. (“EMS”) completed the closing (the “Closing”) of the transfer from EMS to the Company of all licensing and royalty rights granted to EMS by the Company under that certain Amended and Restated Master License Agreement by and between EMS and the Company (the “MLA”). Under the MLA, the Company had granted EMS the exclusive worldwide license for twenty years plus six five-year renewals at the option of EMS to sublicense the Company’s trademarks and related properties (the “Licensing Rights”). Additionally, under the MLA, EMS was entitled to receive 50% of the licensing fees paid by various non-affiliated nightclubs (the Existing licensees”) to EMS (the “EMS Royalty Rights”).

EMS is owned by 333 East 60th Street Inc. (“333”) and 333 is owned by the Share Sellers Richard Goldring and Elliot Osher

At the Closing and pursuant to the terms of the transfer agreement by and between the Company and EMS dated December 9, 2008, EMS assigned to the Company the Licensing Rights and the EMS Royalty Rights relating to the Existing licensees, free and clear of any charges, liens or other encumbrances. In consideration of these assignments, the Company credited 333 with a $600,000 payment against a $1,220,475 debt owed by 333 to the Company (the “Debt”) and provided 333 with an acknowledgement that the Debt was satisfied to the extent of the $600,000 payment. Additionally, at the Closing, EMS and the Company executed a cancellation and mutual release agreement canceling the MLA and terminating all of the rights and obligations of the parties thereunder.

Note 4 - Licensees

The agreement between us and EMS dated January 27, 2009, terminated the MLA and hence, we have begun to retain 100% of the royalty payments received from each of these clubs rather than the 50% which was previously retained by EMS under the MLA.

In 2003, EMS licensed the use of the "Scores Chicago" name to Stone Park Entertainment, Inc. for its club in Chicago, Illinois. Royalties payable to the Company were the greater of $2,500 per week or 4.99% of the gross revenues (less $25,000 per week) earned at that location. This licensee accounted for 28% and 23% of our total royalty revenues during the first six month of 2009 and 2008, respectively. During the six months ended June 2009, the Company collected $29,535 in cash royalties and is owed $12,924 in outstanding royalties respectively.

In 2004, EMS licensed the use of "Scores Baltimore" to Club 2000 Eastern Avenue, Inc. for its nightclub in Baltimore, Maryland. Royalties payable to EMS were the greater of $1,000 per week or 4.99% of gross revenues. This club accounted for 33% and 21% of our total royalty revenues during the first six months in 2009 and 2008, respectively. During the six months ended June 2009, the Company collected approximately $12,876 in cash royalties and is owed $8,378 in outstanding royalties respectively.

In April 2007, EMS licensed the use of the Scores brand name to Silver Bourbon, Inc. for a night club in New Orleans, Louisiana. Royalties payable under this license are capped at the greater of $8,000 per month or 4.99% of gross revenues. This club commenced operations in April 2007 and accounted for 10% and 10% of our total royalty revenues during first six months of 2009 and 2008, respectively. During the first six months ended June 2009, the Company did not receive any royalty payments and is owed approximately $14,000 in outstanding royalties. A reserve for the entire $14,000 was provided for at June 30, 2009 respectively. During the second quarter 0f 2009 , the Company, for reporting purposes did not report revenues from our New Orleans licensee.

On January 27, 2009, we entered into a licensing agreement with I.M. Operating LLC (“IMO”) for the use of the Scores brand name which our majority shareholder (Robert M. Gans) and Secretary and Board Director (Howard Rosenbluth) are members. IMOs’ operations will be at the location of the former Scores West nightclub, 533-535 West 27th Street, New York, NY (the “West 27th Street Building”)., which is also owned by Westside Realty of New York, of which the majority owner is Robert M. Gans. Royalties payable to the Company under this license agreement are 3% of gross revenues. IMO has a liquor license, renovated the club and commenced operations at the west 28th street location in May 2009. The Company received a $100,000 advance cash royalty payment from IMO during the 2009 period of which $30,000 was applied to May and June 2009 royalties. The balance of $70,000 will be applied towards future royalties.

Note 5 – Commitments and Contingencies

In early March 2008, we received notice that DIF&B, owner of the Las Vegas club, would be canceling its sublicense with EMS effective on or before May 6, 2008. We were notified that DIF&B would be making final royalty payments to EMS totaling $60,000 at the rate of $10,000 per week starting the first week of March 2008. The Las Vegas club ceased operating and, as of December 31, 2008, EMS had received only one such $10,000 payment from DIF&B. EMS commenced an action against DIF&B and filed a complaint and affidavit of service with the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York (the “SCNY”), on July 23, 2008. DIF&B was required to file an answer by August 23, 2008, but did not do so. As a result, EMS filed an application for a default judgment and the SCNY appointed a referee to determine damages. The referee determined that damages in the amount of $216,000, with interest, should be paid to EMS. This amount must be confirmed by the SCNY in a final judgment. If such a judgment is rendered by the SCNY, we will attempt to collect on the judgment. We will be entitled to all monies so collected, pursuant to the Assignment Agreement with EMS and 333.

On December 11, 2007, Francis Vargas, a former cocktail waitress at Scores West located in New York, NY, filed a civil lawsuit against us and Go West in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, alleging violations of the New York State Human Rights Law, New York Executive Law, New York City Human Rights Law, and the New York City Administrative Code, based upon allegations of sexual discrimination and sexual harassment. The lawsuit further alleges that at all material times both we and Go West were employers of Ms. Vargas, the plaintiff. The law suit seeks unspecified compensatory damages for plaintiff’s alleged loss of past and future earnings and benefits, emotional distress, humiliation and loss of reputation. We dispute that we were an employer of the plaintiff and categorically deny all allegations of sexual discrimination and sexual harassment. We filed our verified answer in the Supreme Court of the State of New York on February 12, 2008 to contest and defend against these accusations and we are currently engaged in discovery. On April 18, 2008, co-defendant Go West filed for bankruptcy and the case is currently stayed.

On October 9, 2007, former Go West bartender Siri Diaz filed a purported class action and collective action on behalf of all tipped employees against us and other defendants alleging violations of federal and state wage/hour laws (Siri Diaz et al. v. Scores Holding Company, Inc.; Go West Entertainment, Inc. a/k/a Scores West Side; and Scores Entertainment, Inc., a/k/a Scores East Side, Case No. 07 Civ. 8718 (Southern District of New York (the “Court”), Judge Richard M. Berman)). On November 6, 2007, plaintiffs served an amended purported class action and collective action complaint, naming dancers and servers as additional plaintiffs and alleging the same violations of federal and state wage/hour laws. On or about February 21, 2008, plaintiffs served a second amended complaint adding two additional party defendants, but limiting the action to persons employed in the New York Scores’ clubs. The amended complaint alleges that we and the other defendants are “an integrated enterprise” and that we jointly employ the plaintiffs, subjecting all of the defendants to liability for the alleged wage/hour violations. We dispute that we violated the federal and state labor laws, and further dispute that the dancers are “employees” subject to the federal and state wage and hour laws. We intend to vigorously contest the claimed liability as well as the violations alleged.

On April 18, 2008, co-defendant Go West filed for bankruptcy.

On behalf of ourselves and the other defendants we filed a motion to dismiss that portion of the Complaint as asserted State law class action allegations; we also moved to dismiss the claims of two of the named plaintiffs for failure to appear for depositions. At the same time plaintiffs moved for conditional certification under the federal law for a class of the servers, bartenders and dancers; we opposed that motion. On May 9, 2008, the Court issued its decision, denying the motion to dismiss and granting conditional certification for a class of servers, cocktail waitresses, bartenders and dancers who have worked at Scores East since October 2004. The case is stayed as against Go West pursuant to the bankruptcy law. The Court directed that notice be sent to all potential class members. On May 29, 2008, we filed an answer to plaintiffs’ second amended complaint. Discovery into both the procedural and substantive issues is ongoing, as are settlement negotiations.

In February 2007, the City of New York (the “City”) sought to close Scores West claiming that it presented a public nuisance. The City alleged that this nightclub was used for purposes of prostitution; the case was dismissed by the City of New York and no charges were sought against Scores West or us. In February, 2007, the New York State Liquor Authority (the “NYSLA”) began a review of the license held by Scores West and issued an Emergency Summary Order of Suspension of the Scores West liquor license on February 21, 2007. Go West, the owner of Scores West, filed a pleading with the NYSLA on behalf of Scores West. After a temporary adjournment and a series of hearings in front of an administrative law judge, on February 4, 2008, this judge sustained all charges against Scores West. A NYSLA hearing was held on March 6, 2008 and the NYSLA revoked the Scores West Liquor license. On March 18, 2008, the New York State Appellate Division, First Department (the “Appellate Court”) granted an interim stay of the liquor license revocation pending a review by the full bench of the Appellate Court. On April 15, 2008 the Appellate Court decided to deny a further stay of the March 2008 revocation by the NYSLA of the Scores West liquor license. Go West filed with the Appellate Court for a reconsideration of its decision, which was denied. As a result of this outcome, Scores West has closed. The Appellate Court decided to hear this case on the merits and, on October 3, 2008, found in favor of the NYSLA, upholding the NYSLA’s revocation of the Scores West Liquor License. Go West subsequently filed a motion for re-argument before the Appellate Court and/or leave to appeal to the New York Court of Appeals. This further motion was withdrawn by Go West.

On April 18, 2008, Go West filed a voluntary petition for bankruptcy with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court, Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”), under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. This filing followed the April 15, 2008 Appellate Court decision to deny a further stay of the March 2008 revocation by the NYSLA of the Scores West liquor license. As of the date hereof, an Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors has not been formed nor has a Trustee or Examiner been appointed in this case. Go West’s bankruptcy case is pending in the Bankruptcy Court, Case No. 08-11420. The United States Trustee in this case filed a motion seeking the dismissal or conversion of Go West’s Chapter 11 case as Go West is no longer operating. That motion was granted by the Bankruptcy Court and an order will be entered once Go West completes its stipulations with the Internal Revenue Service (regarding the payment of unpaid federal taxes) and the New York State Department of Taxation (regarding a payment plan for state taxes due).

Scores West has permanently lost its liquor license and has closed its business. As a result, we are no longer able to receive royalty revenues from Go West, owner of that club. In 2006, royalty revenues from Scores West amounted to 31% of our royalties. We did not receive any revenue from Scores West since 2006. Because Scores West has closed, the ability of Go West to make payments under the Note has been severely impaired. .As of January 1, 2009, the note has been fully written off.

On May 2, 2008, the NYSLA gave notice of its pleading to 333, the owner of Scores East, in connection with its proceeding to cancel or revoke the liquor license of Scores East, based on its revocation of the Scores West liquor license. (Scores West and Scores East were related by common ownership.) On July 2, 2008, the NYSLA gave 333 a notice of hearing set for August 19, 2008. Based on the filing with the NYSLA of a conditional no-contest plea, this hearing was adjourned. 333 has since surrendered its liquor license for Scores East and that club has permanently closed. Because of these developments, we are no longer able to receive royalty revenues from Scores East, which in 2006, amounted to 28% of our royalties. We did not receive any revenue from Scores East since 2006.

On March 30, 2007, we, along with several of our affiliates, were named in a suit in connection with an alleged assault by an employee of an affiliate and one of our stockholders and former officer and director. We have recently answered a third amended complaint and participated in a Preliminary Conference to establish the discovery schedule. Examinations before trial of the parties have been completed and non-party depositions are now being taken. The plaintiff has not yet undergone the required physical examination. We will vigorously defend ourselves in this litigation and do not expect that the outcome will be material.

On December 11, 2006, SMG, our former affiliate and owner of the club in North Miami, Florida, filed for bankruptcy with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York. In connection therewith, it terminated its license agreement with EMS whereby it was authorized to use our intellectual property. At the time of its filing, SMG owed us $16,661 for unpaid merchandise, which we subsequently reserved as bad debt. SMG emerged from bankruptcy in September 2008 under a plan of reorganization pursuant to which all general, unsecured debt was discharged, including the $16,661 owed to us.

Scores Holding Company Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

On March 31, 2006, Richard K. Goldring, our former president, chief executive officer and principal shareholder pled guilty to one count of offering a False Instrument for Filing in the First Degree pursuant to a plea agreement with the District Attorney of the County of New York (the "DA"). In the event that within one year of the date of the entry of the guilty plea, Mr. Goldring resigns from all "control management positions" that he holds in publicly traded companies, including ours, and divests himself of all "control ownership positions" in publicly traded companies, including ours, and satisfies certain other conditions, the DA will recommend a sentence of probation. In this context, a “control management position” is a role, official or unofficial, by which he substantially directs the decisions of a company, and a “control ownership position” is a position in which he controls, directly or indirectly more than 9% of the voting stock or other securities of a company, or stock or securities that have the capability of being converted into voting stock or other securities of a company. The plea agreement resolves the DA's investigation against Mr. Goldring and us. No charges were brought against us.

To comply with the plea agreement between Richard Goldring and the District Attorney of the County of New York, on September 4, 2008, Mr. Goldring transferred his 76,080,958 shares of our common stock (the “Goldring Shares”) to Ira Altchek as trustee (the “Trustee”). According to the terms of the Voting Trust Agreement by and between Mr. Goldring and the Trustee dated September 4, 2008, the Trustee had the right to exercise all rights and powers of a shareholder of the Company with respect to the Goldring Shares, including, without limitation, the sole and exclusive right to vote the Goldring Shares, while Mr. Goldring maintained the right to sell the Goldring Shares at any time. The Goldring Shares represented approximately forty six percent (46%) of the outstanding capital stock of the Company as of the December 31, 2008. On January 27, 2009, Mr. Goldring sold all of the Goldring Shares in a private transaction with Buyer, as further discussed above.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

Scores Holding Company, Inc. (‘Scores,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) was incorporated in Utah on September 21, 1981 under the name Adonis Energy, Inc. Since 2003, we have been in the business of licensing the “Scores” trademarks and other intellectual property to fine gentlemen’s nightclubs with adult entertainment in the United States. There are three such clubs currently operating under the Scores name, in Baltimore, Chicago, and New Orleans.

On January 27, 2009, Entertainment Management Services, Inc. ("EMS"), an entity owned by two of our former directors and employees, transferred to us of all the Scores licensing and royalty rights originally granted to EMS in 20031. As a result of this transfer, our intellectual property is now licensed directly by us and we are now entitled to 100% of the royalty payments made by our licensed clubs rather than the 50% we were entitled to under the agreement with EMS.

Additionally on January 27, 2009, Mitchell’s East LLC, wholly owned by Robert M. Gans, acquired a majority interest in our outstanding capital stock1. I.M. Operating LLC (“IMO”), which is partially owned by Robert M. Gans who is also our majority shareholder, has signed a licensing agreement with us and commenced operations in New York of a new Club (the “New York Club”) under the Scores name in May 2009. Throughout this report, we refer to the New York Club as our affiliate, because of the common ownership by Mr. Gans. All other clubs are referred to as non-affiliated clubs or as licensees, a term that may include the New York Club when the context requires.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended June 30, 2009 (“the 2009 period”) Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2008 (“the 2008 period”).

Revenues:

Revenues increased Sixty three (63%) percent to $57,835 for the 2009 period from $35,561 for the 2008 period. Revenues from our Chicago nightclub increased three (3%) to $15,581 for the 2009 period from $15,108 from the 2008 period, from our Baltimore club decreased (7%) to $12,254 for the 2009 period from $13,172 for the 2008 period and from our New Orleans club, decreased one hundred (100%) to $0 for the 2009 period from $6,000 in the 2008 period. (See Bad Debt Expense below). In May 2009 the New York Club commenced operations. We received approximately $50,000 in advance cash royalty payments from the New York Club, which we applied $30,000 towards the May and June 2009 royalties due. The balance of $20,000 will be applied towards future royalties due.

1. As more fully described in our annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 15, 2008.

General and Administrative Expenses:

General and administrative expenses decreased during the 2009 period to $138,227 from $108,944 during the 2008 period. The difference reflects a $25,000 payout of prior quarter salaries during the June 30, 2009 three month period. Our efforts to expand into and capitalize on new markets with the Scores brand decreased significantly in the 2009 period due to the short falls in our anticipated revenue during the 2009 and 2008 periods.

Provision for Income Taxes:

The provision for state income taxes relates primarily to the greater of average assets and capital taxable income. The average assets and capital are not impacted by net operating losses.

Net (Loss):

Our net (loss) was $(110,392) or $(0.00) per share for the 2009 period compared to a net (loss) of $(77,380) or $(0.00) per share for the 2008 period. The increase in net (loss) for the 2009 period was a result of bad debt reserves of approximately $30,000 incurred in connection with our Baltimore and New Orleans licensees.

Net (loss) per share data for both the 2009 period and the 2008 period is based on net income available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average of the number of common shares outstanding.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2009 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2008

Revenues:

Revenues decreased seven (7%) percent to $117,618 for the 2009 six month period from $126,884 for the 2008 six month period. Revenues from the Las Vegas club declined one hundred percent (100%) to $0 for the 2009 six month period from $54,000 for the 2008 six month period. This decline was due to the sale of the Las Vegas club which terminated its license agreement in August of 2008. Royalty revenues increased from our Chicago licensee seven (20%) percent to $33,364 for the 2009 six month period from $28,049 for the 2008 six month period, from the Baltimore licensee, forty eight (48%) percent to $39,254 for the 2009 six month period from $26,474 for the 2008 six month period. During the 2009 period the New York Club commenced operations. We received approximately $100,000 in advance cash royalty payments from the New York Club and applied $30,000 of such advance payments to revenue for the 2009 period. The $70,000 balance will be applied towards future royalties. During the 2009 six month period, the Company reserved approximately $30,000 in past due royalties from our Baltimore and New Orleans licensees (see Bad Debt Expense below).

General and Administrative Expenses:

General and administrative expenses increased during the 2009 six month period to $230,794 from $174,748 during the 2008 six month period. The $56,000 difference represents a 2009 increase in operating expenses related to amortization of $30,000, prior year sales taxes on capital improvements of $19,000 and salaries of $25,000 and reductions in insurance, public relations, business development and advertising of approximately $18,000. Our efforts to expand our brand presence in new markets decreased significantly due to the short falls in our anticipated revenue during the 2009 and 2008 six month periods.

Provision for Income Taxes:

The provision for state income taxes relates primarily to the greater of average assets and capital taxable income. The average assets and capital are not impacted by net operating losses.

Net (Loss):

Our net (loss) was $(137,176) or $(0.00) per share for the 2009 six month period compared to a net (loss) of $(52,579) or $(0.00) per share for the 2008 six month period. This increase in our losses for the 2009 six month period was a result of a decrease in our revenues due to the sale of the Las Vegas club in May 2008 and the resultant discontinuance of that club as a licensee. We reserved approximately $30,000 in bad debt relating to our Baltimore and New Orleans licensees. We experienced significant increases in our operating costs of approximately $56,000 in the 2009 six month period from the 2008 six month period. The Company incurred significant increases in amortization expense of $30,000, sales and use taxes on prior years’ capitalized improvements of $19,000 and management salaries of $25,000 during the 2009 six month period. Our efforts to reduce spending on expansion during the 2009 six month period resulted to a $18,000 reductions in public relations, advertising, insurance and business development.

Net (loss) per share data for both the 2009 six month period and the 2008 six month period is based on net income available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average of the number of common shares outstanding.

Bad Debt Expense

As of June 30, 2009, our Baltimore and New Orleans licensees owed us $18,000 and $12,000 in accrued and unpaid royalties, respectively. During the 2009 six month period, management agreed to write off the balance owed from our Baltimore licensee and reserve the amount owed by our New Orleans licensee. This determination to write off certain receivables resulted from decreases in licensee club revenues which may have dropped as a result of various prior legal matters connected with our former officers and New York affiliates. We settled with our Baltimore licensee and we are currently negotiating with the New Orleans licensee regarding its past due royalties. During the 2009 period, we did not report revenues from our New Orleans licensee.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash:

At June 30, 2009, we had $14,594 in cash and cash equivalents compared to $173 in cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2008.

Contractual Commitments:

On February 28, 2007, our then President, Chief Executive Officer and Director, Richard Goldring resigned from each of those positions, and terminated his employment with us under an employment agreement, dated April 16, 2003. The terms of such agreement provided that if Mr. Goldring terminated his employment without cause (which he did), we would become obligated to pay him $1 million (the “Termination Fee”). Given our lack of available cash since Mr. Goldring’s employment termination, we did not pay Mr. Goldring the Termination Fee. In May 2009, Mr. Goldring assigned his right, title and interest in and to the Termination Fee to Robert M. Gans. It is our understanding that Mr. Gans does not intend to collect from us the Termination Fee.

Operating Activities:

Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008 was $35,403 and $20,000, respectively. The increase in cash reflects the $100,000 advance cash royalty payments made during the 2009 period from our New York affiliate licensee, which helped reduce a significant portion of our outstanding debt. Net royalty receivables for the six months ended June 30, 2009 increased $11,000 over the amount for the six months ended June 30, 2008. During the 2009 six month period, debt in the amount of $6,000 was forgiven from our former related parties. This forgiveness was the result of our purchase of the Master License Agreement from EMS.

Overall revenue declined in the 2009 six month period from the 2008 six month period. This, in part, was a result of the loss of our main licensee in Las Vegas, which accounted for approximately fifty nine percent (44%) of our royalty revenue in 2008, and to shortfalls in revenue from our Baltimore and New Orleans licensees in 2009, where club revenues may have dropped as a result of various prior legal matters connected with our former officers and New York affiliates. These matters may have adversely impacted operations of our licensees’ clubs in Baltimore and New Orleans in 2009.

Financing Activities:

During the 2009 period our bank overdraft decreased by $21,000. This decrease resulted from the $100,000 advance cash payments of future royalties received from our New York affiliate licensee.

Future Capital Requirements:

We have incurred losses since the inception of our business. Since our inception, we have been dependent on acquisitions and funding from private lenders and investors to conduct operations. As of June 30, 2009 we had an accumulated deficit of $(6,108,937), with total current assets of $39,296 and total current liabilities of $257,110, or negative working capital of $(217,814). As of December 31, 2008, we had total current assets of $14,018 and total current liabilities of $155,808 or negative working capital of $(141,790). The increase in negative working capital was primarily attributable to the increase in our cash and accounts receivable, which did not exceed our payables during the 2009 three and six month periods. The Company received $100,000 in advance cash payments from our affiliate New York licensee of which $30,000 was applied towards May and June 2009 royalties and the remaining $70,000 will be applied towards future period revenues.

We will continue to evaluate possible acquisitions of or investments in businesses, products and technologies that are complimentary to ours. These may require the use of cash, which would require us to seek financing. We may sell equity or debt securities or seek credit facilities to fund acquisition-related or other business costs. Sales of equity or convertible debt securities would result in additional dilution to our stockholders. We may also need to raise additional funds in order to support more rapid expansion, develop new or enhanced services or products, respond to competitive pressures, or take advantage of unanticipated opportunities. Our future liquidity and capital requirements will depend upon numerous factors, including the success of our adult entertainment trademark licensing business.

ITEM 4T. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Treasurer who serves as our principal financial and accounting officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, and as discussed in greater detail below, our Chief Executive Officer and Treasurer has concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective:

·	to give reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and

·	to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and our Treasurer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

During the analysis of our internal controls at June 30, 2009, we identified a number of controls, the adoption of which are material to our internal control environment and critical to providing reasonable assurance that any potential errors could be detected. Our analysis identified control deficiencies related to our recording of inventory, accounts payable, notes payable/debentures, prepaid expenses and unique or one time or first time transactions. While we have taken certain remedial steps during the six months ended June 30, 2009 to correct these control deficiencies, we do not have a sufficient number of personnel with the requisite expertise in generally accepted accounting principles to ensure the proper application of the appropriate controls. Due to the nature of these material weaknesses, there is more than a remote likelihood that misstatements which could be material to our financial statements could occur that would not be prevented or detected.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the 2009 period that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting

PART II

ITEM 1.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On April 18, 2008, co-defendant Go West filed for bankruptcy.

Scores West has permanently lost its liquor license and has closed its business. As a result, we are no longer able to receive royalty revenues from Go West, owner of that club. In 2006, royalty revenues from Scores West amounted to 31% of our royalties. We did not receive any revenue from Scores West in 2008 or in 2007. Because Scores West has closed, the ability of Go West to make payments under the Note (defined below) has been severely impaired. The Note is currently in default. See Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Bad Debt Expense.

On December 11, 2006, SMG, our former affiliate and owner of the club in North Miami, Florida, filed for bankruptcy with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York. In connection therewith, it terminated its license agreement with EMS whereby it was authorized to use our intellectual property. At the time of its filing, SMG owed us $16,661 for unpaid merchandise, which we subsequently reserved as bad debt. SMG emerged from bankruptcy in September 2008 under a plan or reorganization pursuant to which all general, unsecured debt was discharged, including the $16,661 owed to us.

In June 2005, we, together with several of our affiliates, commenced litigation regarding title to certain of our intellectual property. In February 2006, counterclaims were asserted and other persons brought third party complaints. In September 2006, we and our affiliates reached a settlement resolving all claims against us for a payment of $175,000 made in monthly installments. In return, the other parties in the litigation disclaimed any right to our intellectual property.

There are no other material legal proceedings pending to which we or any of our property are subject, nor to our knowledge are any such proceedings threatened.
