Pro Forma Valuation SpreadOffense.com, Inc. is seeking to sell 41% of its founder shares for $300,000. The Company is projecting to achieve approximately $1,400,000 in net income by the fifth year of operation, and has based the acquisition of shares upon this. Based on the assumption of funding, the Company has derived a five year forecasted plan. The plan highlights the Company; the proposed deal and structure; services; the Company‟s markets; initial plans for marketing; and projected five year financials. The following table was projected with the assumption that the equity investors liquidate their shares of the Company in the 5th year at 4-times net income:

Investment Multiple Value

$300,000 7.6 $2,280,000.00

41% $1,400,000 4 $5,600,000.00

1.0 Executive Summary The spread offense has taken the football world by storm. Less an actual set offense than a general philosophy, it is used by more than one-third of college football teams in the NCAA‟s Division 1. As a result, high school and middle school programs across the country are adopting the offense to mimic the college level. Even the National Football League (NFL) has become a participant of this dynamic offense, with many teams now running the „wildcat‟ single-wing shot gun offense as a change of pace to their traditional pro formations. SpreadOffense.com, Inc., (also referred to as “the Company”) is a web portal dedicated to this popular and innovative offense. In a short time, the Company has become a trusted resource for learning about how to both run the spread offense and how to defend against it. The site has gained traction in large part because of its great search engine presence. A Google search of the term “spread offense” yields a No. 2 organic search result for SpreadOffense.com, right behind Wikipedia.

SpreadOffense.com has compiled the most comprehensive spread offense playbook available. The 70-page SpreadOffense.com Downloadable Playbook features in-depth running and passing plays for coaches and players. It includes breakdowns and diagrams of specific offensive formations, pass protections, run blocking techniques, and defensive looks seen most often versus the spread offense. SpreadOffense.com also offers the playbook Defending the Spread Offense, both available for $19.95 for immediate download. The Company‟s sister site, SpreadOffense.tv, is an online video-sharing site for football coaches, football players, and fans to share their spread-offense-focused video clips. The goal is to create the Internet‟s largest spread offense video collection. SpreadOffense.tv also has the potential to become a college recruiting site, where athletes post their videos for coaches to view. Recruiting has become big business. Takkle.com, for example, a social network centered on high school sports and college recruiting, recently raised $7 million in second-round financing from Sports Illustrated and several other prominent investors.

SpreadOffense.com is now in an expansion phase, and will grow to include the sales of spread offense training DVDs and „on demand‟ content, brick-and-mortar SpreadOffense.com camps and clinics, and premium online subscription content. The Company will partner with well-known high school and college coaches around the country to put on spread offense training events. Camps will take place at a local school facility and draw in athletes from around the region. For very reasonable cost of $250 per kid, the four-day camps will include instructions for quarterbacks, wide receivers, running backs, and linemen to run the spread offense no-huddle system, and defensive training will be offered as well. Nationwide, there are more than 1.1 million high school football players at 18,500 schools and more than 240,000 Pop Warner players. Additionally, there were more than 7.9 million participants in tackle football at any level in the U.S. in 2007. At the college level, 714 four-year schools have football teams. SpreadOffense.com will tap into this large market by offering its services as an authority of the spread offense. Football coaches and players are always looking for a way to hone their skills and improve their game, and now SpreadOffense.com has the ability to offer this to these individuals, both on and offline. Through its football camps, as well as its online portal that sells coaching videos, premium content, and other training materials, the Company will establish itself as a leading force online as well as in the football industry. To introduce its concept

and services to potential users and participants, SpreadOffense.com will use strategic Internet advertising, print media ads, national coaching directory services, and presentations with exhibit hall exposure at national football coaching camps and clinics. Mark Colyer will own and operate the Company. Mr. Colyer is an experienced entrepreneur and business professional that has worked for the last two years as the Owner and Founder of SpreadOffense.com. In tandem with this position, he serves as the Executive Vice President and Co-Founder for Branded Marketing. He also worked for four years as a Senior Manager at the Parisi Speed and Athletic Performance Facility and for seven years as a Strength and Conditioning Coordinator and Assistant Football Coach for North Arlington High School. Mr. Colyer is a graduate of West Virginia University, where he completed a Bachelor of Science degree in Exercise Physiology. To achieve the Company‟s objectives, SpreadOffense.com, Inc. is seeking $300,000 in total funding through outside investment.

1.2 Start-up Summary The following tables and graphs detail the funding the Company needs to bring its vision to reality. Start-up expenses include all the expenditures incurred in the “start-up period” – the development stage before the Company starts earning revenue. In other words, “start-up” precedes “Month 1” and “Year 1” of accompanying projections. “Start-up assets” include start-up costs that are not “expensed” and include short and long term-assets. The “cash required” element of the asset table represents the balance of cash at the beginning of Month 1 of the financial projections. Total start-up requirements, which can be funded with loans (liabilities) and/or investment, equal the sum of start-up expenses and assets.

2.0 Products and Services SpreadOffense.com is a website dedicated to the innovative offensive style that is sweeping the pro, college, and high school ranks. SpreadOffense.com offers news, coaching tools, playbooks, articles, forums, a blog, and a video-sharing library through SpreadOffense.tv. The Company‟s goal is to become the premier online destination for all things spread offense, and it has achieved a loyal following in just a short period. SpreadOffense.com is primarily composed of two components: how to run the spread offense and how to defend against the spread offense. The Company generates revenue via coach‟s playbook sales (e-downloads), DVD coaching video sales (through third party revenue share), and Google AdSense advertising revenue.

SpreadOffense.com Downloadable Playbook: The Company created a one-of-a-kind spread offense playbook. The collection includes more than 70 pages of in-depth running and passing plays for coaches and players. It includes breakdowns and diagrams of specific offensive formations, pass protections, run blocking techniques, and defensive looks seen most often versus the spread offense in football. The SpreadOffense.com Downloadable Playbook will be beneficial to the beginner, intermediate, or advanced football coach – from Pop Warner to the pros. It can be downloaded straight from the site for $19.95.

Defending the Spread Offense: On the other side of the coin, the SpreadOffense.com Defensive Playbook breaks down the difficult task defenses face each game. The Company has assembled the best defensive playbook that will help teams at any level. Defensive alignments, responsibilities, stunts, and coverages out of the 3-3-5 stack are profiled. Also priced at $19.95.

SpreadOffense.tv: This video-sharing site is an online platform for football coaches, football players, and fans to share their spread-offense-focused video clips, creating a community of like-minded people. Included are clips of game film, practice film, training sessions, camps, and instructional pieces. The goal of the Company is to create the largest library of football clips available. SpreadOffense.tv will potentially be seen by millions of people around the world. This will be attractive to advertisers and sponsors, and could even become a major center for college coaches to recruit high school players based on their highlight films. In the future, coaches could be charged for access to a recruitment-specific section of the site.

2.1 Product and Service Description SpreadOffense.com is now expanding its presence to include in-house training videos and camps and clinics at schools and recreational facilities across the country. The Company will establish strong alliances with well-known coaches at the high school and college level, who will be featured coaches at the clinics and camps and also spread the word about SpreadOffense.com. These two new components are further detailed below: Instructional videos: The Company will produce and sell training videos featuring the instructions from its SpreadOffense.com Downloadable Playbook and presented by

coaches seasoned in the spread offense. These videos will be primarily for coaches who want to learn the spread offense and teach their teams. Similarly, there will be videos for defending the spread offense. Coaches can purchase the videos and view them on SpreadOffense.com via „on-demand‟ technology, or they can purchase a DVD to the video. Camps: Stretching from the high school to youth football levels, SpreadOffense.com‟s camps will be for players ages nine to 18. The Company will partner with schools in communities across the country that will host the camps at their facilities. Coaches will be independently contracted to run all day-to-day aspects of the camps. The Company will handle all billing and advertising. Camps will typically run four days, at a cost of $250 per kid. The Company will establish a set format and lessons for camps and clinics. Ideally, camps and clinics will become annual events at school campuses, which will be centrally located in each market to draw players from the entire surrounding area. Both offense and defense components will be coached, and topics, for example, will include instructions for quarterbacks, wide receivers, running backs, and linemen to run the spread offense no-huddle system. Camps will be opened to both individual players and teams at a bulk discount.

3.0 Market Analysis Summary The Market for SpreadOffense.com can be paralleled to sports website advertising and online video use. Advertising on sports websites in the U.S., which totaled just $819 million in 2007, will reach an estimated $1.15 billion in 2009 and $1.95 billion by 2012, according to a report from eMarketer.

1 “The Internet promises to

reshape the sports marketing landscape by offering sports fans instant and dynamic access to scores, news, trivia, statistics, blogs, bulletin boards, social networks, fantasy sports services, highlights, and live game streaming,” says eMarketer‟s senior analyst Paul Verna.

2 Advertising as a percentage of total revenue for sports

sites will grow from 55% to 66% during the same period. Growth is further illustrated in the following chart:3

According to eMarketer, 2008 saw a dramatic jump of available online video “both from professional content producers – such as TV networks – and from amateurs churning out user-generated content.” This has led to unprecedented online viewership (With more than 154 million people in the U.S. watching online video at least once a month in 2008). By 2012, an estimated 190 million Americans will be regularly watching online videos, accounting for 88% of total Internet users:

7 USA Football, the leading youth football coaching and

officiating organization in the U.S., reports 26,789 coaches in its registry.8 USA Football was endowed by the

NFL and NFL Players Association in 2002. It is composed of youth coaches, league commissioners, and game officials in 50 states and is the Official Youth Football Development Partner of the NFL and NFLPA.

9 USA

Football has trained more than 16,000 youth football coaches since 2007.10

High school: More than 7.4 million students participated in interscholastic sports in the 2007-2008 school year, according to the National Federation of State High School Association (NFSHA), which provides program initiatives for the nation‟s 18,500 high schools.

11 The largest participation among any sport is by far 11-man

football, with 1,108,286 participants, more than double the size of the next-largest sport; boys‟ basketball.12

Eight-man football is also played at many small schools College: There are 714 four-year colleges and universities with football teams. These include:

13

NCAA Div. 1 (BCS): 119 teams (at least 48 run the spread offense14

)

NCAA Div. 1 (FCS): 116 teams

NCAA Div. II: 156 teams

NCAA Div. III: 234 teams

NAIA: 91 teams

Fans Football has the most loyal fans of any sport. The NFL has the most “avid fans,” according to the Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association, with 32 million fans identifying themselves as such. The NFL was followed by college football, with 23 million avid fans.

15

The fan base for football can also be measured by online sports website traffic. The three websites represented below are the primary destinations online for America‟s sports fans. They offer up-to-the-minute information that sports fans desire. ESPN and CBS Sportsline cover all sports and competitions, from football to purebred dog shows, while FoxSports, which includes BCSFootball.org – for the Bowl Championship Series (BCS) – has in depth analysis in the BCS and its bowl games. The table below shows Compete.com data regarding these sites‟ user traffic for 2008:

As can be seen in the graph above, with the exception of the month of March, when NCAA basketball is at its height, football season, from August to January, represents the highest-traffic period for these major sports websites. The BCS and the Super Bowl are the culmination of that season.

3.2 Industry Analysis There are thousands of sports camps across the country. The Sports Camp Federation has more than 20,000 camps and schools in its database.

17 These range from small camps put on by a school or club team, to large

companies whose sole purpose is to operate sports camp. US Sports Camps, for example, is the largest company in the industry. It has 400 camps nationwide, including many Nike-branded camps, and has more than 52,000 annual campers. It had 2008 revenue of $30 million. More than 70% of its campers sign up over the Internet. The San Francisco-area company has just 17 full-time employees, contracting out coaching and running individual camps to coaches.

18

3.3 Competitive Comparison SpreadOffense.com has the most comprehensive information online about the spread offense. On a Google search of the term, it is the second entry for organic search results, behind only Wikipedia‟s article. Its camps and clinics, however, will compete with the thousands of individual events available to athletes. Some of the top camps in the industry are as follows:

DeBartolo Sports University: This provider of skill-specific football camps is owned by the former owner of the San Francisco 49ers, Edward DeBartolo, Jr. As such, its site prominently displays the images of starts Jerry Rice and Joe Montana, who hosts a quarterbacks‟ camp. There are general-purpose DeBartolo Football Academies in Los Angeles, Tampa, Chicago, New Jersey, and Oklahoma City, as well as the Elite Quarterback Academy in Tampa. Clinics include a combine prep camp, and DeBartolo also offers online training videos.

Tony Franklin Systems: This program, called The System Football, has 2010 clinics in Nashville, Houston, Dallas, Atlantic City, and Los Angeles. It is a program to teach coaches to learn a football-teaching format. The System Seminars are operated by the Frank Glazier Mega Clinics offices in Colorado Springs.

USA Football: Created by the NFL and the NFL Players Association, its membership includes youth coaches, league commissioners, and game officials in all 50 states. It is an independent and nonprofit group that hosts more than 100 football training events each year to educate coaches and game officials, as well as skill-development events for players. USA Football gives more than $1 million in grants to youth football leagues each year.

Football University (FBU): FBU selects the best high school athletes in the country and offers them a spot at its annual camps. FBU picks the top 300 prep athletes in 30 different regions and provides a three-day curriculum that includes instruction from some of the top trainers in the industry. Instructors have privately trained players such as Tom Brady, Tony Romo, and Eli Manning. Camps include 14 hours of training in on-field and off-field instruction, technique drills, film study, classroom testing, and access to high-definition video analysis, for a cost of $560. The top participants from the 30 camps are invited to FBU‟s year-end Top Gun camp in Florida.

Sports International Football Camp: This company uses star football players to attract kids to its camps. For example, it puts on the Marcus Trufant Football Camp in the Seattle area, featuring the Seahawks‟ all-star defensive back as well as other current and former Seattle players. It has 21 camps in 16 states. Before the start of each camp, Sports International hosts specialty clinics at the camp site.

It is also worth noting competitors in the area of college recruiting. This has turned into a big business. BeRecruited.com, for example, was founded in 2000 and was first to market with online recruitment services. It has approximately 265,000 registered users, including 237,000 student-athletes, 11,000 college coaches, and 9,000 high school coaches.

19 Another company, PrepChamps, closed a first round of financing in 2008 of $1.2

million.20

It has developed a strategic partnership with Reebok to bolster online registration.21

Takkle.com, a social networking site that also has a recruiting forum, raised $5 million in its first round of private funding in November 2006. A second round of $7 million (in November 2007) was led by Sports Illustrated and the New York City Investment Fund, with involvement from first round investors Wasserman Media Group LLC, Greycroft Partners, LLC, IJ Smith Enterprises LLC, and Jack Schneider, Managing Director at Allen & Company, Inc.

22 MaxPreps, a high school sports information site, received $2.25 million in venture capital in 2005.

ESPN recently acquired Student Sports Inc., a high school-focused digital media company, and SB Nation, a sports blog supersite with 3.5 million monthly visitors, recently raised $7 million in a Series B round, led by the Comcast Corporation.
