Opera&onal  Overview  

January  2014  

Page 2: Fc:bcast presentation 012014

          Fullcircle  currently  has   two  func&onal  components,     the  original  Fullcircle  geo-­‐social  

loca&on  based  mobile  applica&on  and  BCAST,  our  live  streaming  social  media  broadcas&ng  

plaForm.    In  an  effort  to  seize  what  the  Board  of  Directors  feels  is  an  enormous  but  short  

lived  market  posi&on  opportunity,  we  have  elected   to  emphasize  BCAST  as   the  dominant  

product  and  focus  our  resources  on  building  and  launching  the  BCAST  live  streaming  social  

broadcas&ng   plaForm.   That   being   said   the   Fullcircle   Geo-­‐social   mobile   network   has  

significant  value/membership  and  will  con&nue  to  be  refined  and  developed  albeit  with  a  

limited  por&on  of  our  economic  resources.    

         The  focus  of  this  presenta&on  is  on  the  BCAST  development  and  Launch.  The  pro-­‐forma  

membership   projec&ons,   revenue   and   expenses   are   blended   to   include   the   very   limited  

Fullcircle   geo-­‐social   applica&on     costs.   The   company   is   in   the   process   of   rebranding   as  

BCAST  including  changing  the  company  name.    Herein  we  briefly  discuss  the  FullCircle  geo-­‐

social  applica&on  but  devote  the  bulk  of  this  presenta&on  to  BCAST  which  we  strongly  feel  

has  outstanding  growth  poten&al.

The Convergence of Live Streaming Video, Location and Social Media

And  what  is  BCAST  and  why  is  everyone  so  excited?  

Page 9: Fc:bcast presentation 012014

How it works?

•  BCast is a new social broadcasting platform that enables users to broadcast live, streaming videos at any time from/to mobile devices and the web.

•  The real-time, live video functionality of BCast is searchable by

location, keyword, followers and other user base aspects. The video streams are live and can be of any duration.

•  BCast users can “follow” a BCast member and receive a notification on their mobile device and/or web/tv when that individual is broadcasting.

•  BCast users can also search for other users via keyword searchable/friend-able database performance.

•  BCast is an advertising supported service and has built-in

appropriate content protections.

And  one  click    to  view    broadcast  anywhere    

Page 14: Fc:bcast presentation 012014

Leveraging social media and existing members for rapid scale

Our planned methodology for acquiring members in BCAST is simple and direct. With a strategy founded in the model of creating “personal broadcast channels”, we intend to heavily leverage existing social media specifically Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. Our system provides for one-click/instant enrollment in BCAST using member’s Twitter or Facebook credentials. Through the use of partnerships and paid incentives with individuals and entities with significant social media followers, we strongly feel BCAST can very rapidly scale as these individuals invite prospective members/fans to enroll in BCAST and follow and be notified of future broadcasts. (see tweet example to right) A prospective member is prompted to download the BCAST App and “Follow” a broadcaster with one click. The BCAST app is automatically downloaded and they enroll instantly. They then receive future notifications when that member is broadcasting. An example (simply an example) would be a celebrity such as Justin Beiber tweeting to his 45 million twitter followers to join BCAST (with one click from link embedded in tweet) and watch him live broadcast from his dressing room prior to a concert. We feel a considerable number of his followers would participate and he would profit from an advertising revenue sharing arrangement for such broadcasts. Although Beiber is an obviously premier example the opportunity exists to partner with thousands of large, medium and small celebrities and leverage them to acquire BCAST members for their own self interest. The BCAST system is designed to only accept enrollment for new members using their Twitter or Facebook credentials. This allows us to not only enroll members in an instant, but affords us certain advantages relative to keeping the broadcast standards high.

BCAST Monetization and Revenue Share Opportunities

The BCAST streaming video platform is designed to support an advertising revenue sharing model where by celebrities, athletes and others who have a strong “following” can extend and further monetize their brand through “lifecasting”. As an example, a popular athlete could broadcast to his followers on a recurring basis and the broadcast could be sponsored by a particular group or open to general advertising. The lifecast could be of the athlete doing mundane daily tasks however, as twitter has shown us, would nonetheless be something their fans would appreciate viewing. These “mundane tasks” could become new revenue producing opportunities in the form of sponsored ads and/or product placement. FullCircle has developed a robust proprietary location-based, merchant de f ined mob i le adver t i s ing /coupon ing sys tem known as NearbySuperDeals. (See Attachment) We intend to heavily leverage this new system to deliver ads to the BCAST members based upon location. Network mobile advertising will also be utilized through Apple’s iAds and Android’s AdMob.

Projected Use of Additional Capital

•  Accelerated  comple&on  of    back-­‐end    Integra&on  and  launch  of  web  and  mobile  proper&es  for  BCAST.  

•  Launch  marke&ng  campaign  to  rapidly  implement  and  aggressively  deploy  social  media,  web,  point  of  presence  membership  acquisi&on  campaigns.      

•  Deployment  of  Interna&onal  expansion  campaign.  

•  Partnership/coali&on  development  (NFL/MLB/NASCAR/celebri&es)  

•  Refined  development  of  Fullcircle  Geo-­‐social  Network  and  Ini&a&on  and  development  of  Public  Sector  campaigns  surrounding  Loca&on  Based  Services  (FEMA,  Homeland  Security,  etc)  already  underway.  

•  Other  general  overhead  as  needed.  

Page 17: Fc:bcast presentation 012014

Pro-Forma Membership/Revenue and P&L Projections

•  FullCircle's   five-­‐year   simple   financial   overview   is   provided   in   a   separate   alachment.   FullCircle  derives  its  primary  revenue  from  the  following  sources:    

•  Adver&sing  and  promo&ons  on  mobile  devices  using  loca&on  based  services  to  provide  targeted  adver&sing  and  promo&ons.    •  Adver&sing  on  the  BCAST/FC  web  sites    •  Enhanced  Subscriber/membership  services/fees  (no  adver&sing,  highlight  your  profile).    

•  Because  of  capital  needs  in  years  1  and  year  2  associated  with  the  technology  development  and  ini&al  launch  the  company  does  not  expect  to  achieve  profitability  un&l  year  3.    

•  These  projec&ons  take  into  considera&on  a  number  of  assump&ons  which  may  or  may  not  pan  out  and  are   to  be  used  as  a  general  guideline  as   to  financial  and  membership  metrics   that  we  hope  to  achieve.    

•  The  membership  projec&ons  have  been  flaled  out  over  a  period  of  &me,  however  we  an&cipate  to  achieve  high  and  low  spikes  depending  on  marke&ng/partnership  ini&a&ves.  

•  Financials   assume   smaller   payroll   numbers   with   more   consultant   use   in   an   effort   to   keep  overhead    low  and  variable
