7. PRODUCTION TEAM

experience in all facets of the motion picture process, including development, financing, production,
distribution, marketing and management of intellectual property. The production team has released 5 feature
films to date with box office and DVD/TV receipts totaling $48 million, we also have releases through

MARKET DEFINITION
The market is defined as the financing, development, production and distribution of feature drama motion
pictures, used by countries around the world to entertain their citizens, with an emphasis on ages 18-45. The
Company intends to capitalize on the exciting developments of the dynamic entertainment marketplace.
The drama/thriller genre is a stable and strong market that provides for strong appeal with the adult
audience and award potential greater than any other motion picture genre. Drama has always maintained a loyal
audience and will continue to do so. Since low-budget drama movie are strong award winning candidates, the
investments have strong upside potential vs. risk. The rise of successful award winning low-budget drama
properties such as “Martha, Marcy, May, Marlene,” “Blue Valentine,” “The Artist,” “Take Shelter,” and “Little
Miss Sunshine” have generated tremendous film festival and award buzz which spawned purchases and strong
box office returns for a strong ROI for the original financiers.

8. EXIT / PAYBACK STRATEGY
The Company will implement strategic production partnerships and business relationships for the Picture,
utilizing tax credits and subsidies, branded content and product placement/corporate sponsorship; and
domestic/international pre-sales in order to expedite recoupment and insure the investment in the project. As
soft monies return into the fold, via pre-sales, additional subsidies or assorted contracts recouped early in the
production process of the Picture, will serve to streamline all avenues to returning investment. With 20-30% of
the true cost of the film already covered by discounted/deferred-fee production partnerships, favorable exchange
rates, and tax credits/subsidies, the remaining 70-80% equity exposed will be in first position against remaining
revenue streams via distribution.
The Company itself will most likely max out its returns by the end of year seven, with most returns
accumulated by end of year three into year four. After the Company reaches the seven year mark it could either
relicense the film to the same or another distributor, or sell the distribution rights in perpetuity to a third party.
The Company anticipates 100%+20% payback within 24-30 months of first date of release. It believes it can
achieve this because:
• The Picture is a cost-effective, commercial-intellectual property;
• The cross pollination between sponsorships, the online marketing world with the award season and the
Picture will result in massive exposure;
• Our entertainment contacts will align the Picture with the most salable foreign distribution outlets,
entities, sales agents, production partners, publicists and allies to effectively launch the Picture worldwide.

9. A HOUSE DIVIDED, LLC
A. MISSION
The Company’s Picture lends itself toward mass demographics, ancillary and franchise potential, and is
seamlessly integration with social media -the fastest rising source of the marketing of content. The Company’s
goal is to generate a cost-effective, broad-based entertainment project with lasting profit potential.
Why Drama/Thriller?
• The genre has displayed a resiliency and a consistency over the years in the marketplace whose box office
returns are strong while the budgets can remain low; and,
• The genre has a track record of delivering film festival awards at Sundance, Cannes and SXSW year-afteryear and propelling the careers of filmmakers involved into the upper echelon of the Hollywood elite. Past
directors who got their early success in drama include: Ed Burns (“The Brothers McMullen”), Thomas
McCarthy (“The Station Agent”), Quentin Tarantino (“Pulp Fiction”), Jonathan Levine (“The
Wackness”), Jason Reitman (“Thank You for Smoking”), Lee Daniels (“Precious”), Drake Doremus
(“Like Crazy”), Benh Zeitlin (“Beasts of the Southern Wild”) and Sean Durkin (“Martha Marcy May
Marlene”).
Many of the greatest and most profitable filmmakers have kick-started lengthy careers by bringing touching
and unique stories that stimulates the audience into thought and tears as they follow the characters. Culture
shifts every generation, demographics evolve, and subsequently, the changing landscape of entertainment has
seen a greater demand by audiences for dramatic potency. TV has sought to satisfy this desire with the flurry of
reality programs inundating the airwaves, and this has fortified the perspective that ‘keeping it real’ is not just a
mantra anymore. For the most part, Hollywood has believed in the bigger is better approach creating
spectaculars since film’s inception with massive productions stretching from projects like “Ben Hur” all the way
to most recently, “Avatar.” But the big budget movie model is often hit or miss and struggles for synchronicity
with the more personalized thrills the modern consumer now desires.
B. LEGAL BUSINESS DESCRIPTION
The legal name of the business will be A HOUSE DIVIDED, LLC. The purpose of the Company is to engage
in any lawful act or activity in the entertainment field to produce the Picture, “A HOUSE DIVIDED.”
Business activity in the entertainment industry shall consist of, but is not limited to, film, interactive games,
music, telecommunications, promotions and artistic expressions. The Company is a California limited
liability company, managed by Daniel Elder & Brianna Domont. Its principal office will be set up in
Chicago, IL at the formation of the LLC. The Company expects this facility to be temporary, after complete
funding the Company plans to relocate to one of the centers of the entertainment business: Hollywood, West
Hollywood, or Santa Monica and once production begins offices will be set up in Chicago/Evanston for the
duration of the production process.
C. STRATEGY
i. Operating
The Company seeks to engage with Investment Partners that desire to invest in the theatrically driven film
project, “A HOUSE DIVIDED.” Because the Company is directly involved in the production and
distribution of the Picture, it ensures the investment of its partners are properly put to use to gain the
greatest potential out of the Picture. The Company’s strategy is to focus on the value and awareness of the
A HOUSE DIVIDED | LONG FORM PROSPECTUS | NOT AN OFFERING !
!
!
Pg. 9 | December 16, 2013

10. Picture, contending with the bigger budget studio films, with a fraction of the budget, and expand among
the social networks, film festivals, and the massive populace looking for strong character driven stories.
ii. A HOUSE DIVIDED, LLC Philosophy:
• Produce and distribute a Strong and cinematic, feature drama film; and,
• Reduce the inherent risks in making the Picture through a lower break-even point (substantially
lower than studio films); and,
• Align with top distribution outlets, entities, sponsors, sales agents, production partners, publicists
and allies to effectively launch the Picture; and,
iii. Production
Our mandate is to produce a Picture that is developed for a specific demographic, for the appropriate and
efficient budget, and to capitalize on high-caliber, original and engaging content. The Company will own/
control the underling screenplay. Production partners in tax incentive/subsidy laden; exchange-rate
friendly environments will be utilized on the production depending on which partnership is most
appropriate for the Picture.
Investment in feature length films involves a substantial degree of risk and is a suitable investment only for
those with sufficient financial means, knowledge and experience. The Company requires that its Investment
Partners are ‘accredited’. Investment Partners will be considered as ‘accredited’ if they have a net worth of $1
million (joint with spouse including furnishings and automobiles); individual income in the prior two years and
estimated current income in excess of $200,000 or joint with-spouse of $300,000; corporations or tax exempt
organizations with at least $5 million in assets; or certain institutional investors (see SEC's Regulation D).
For the Picture, Investment Partners are participating in a production of said Picture, as well as equal
ownership in the Company. Generally, the Company will require that the distributor cover the prints and
advertising cost, though this is not always the case. Sometimes, it is more advantageous to retain as much
ownership as possible and merely hire the distributor for their services at a low distribution rate. The first
objective is to always: (a) repay the Investment Partner, and (b) maximize the film's profits thereafter. The
current international marketplace of soft money, regional tax incentives, exchange rates and strategic production
partnerships and planning, as well as new distribution models, offers the opportunity to produce and market
commercially viable films for under $5 million while maximizing the potential for the Company’s partners to
enjoy higher returns.
D. A HOUSE DIVIDED, LLC Production Strategy
• Focus on one of the stronger genres of the film business, a strong, adult drama/ thriller film; and,
• Partner with a strong foreign sales company and an independent film finance agent (CAA, WME, UTA,
ICM, etc.) to push the film through the proper channels towards distribution; and,
• Will operate in a cost-efficient manner, keeping with our precedent set, demonstrating; considerable
ability in keeping costs to a minimum through all stages of the filmmaking process; and,
• Intends to use new digital technologies to further reduce costs; and,
• This creative approach will employ the utilization of real or ‘practical’ locations and original talent that
will deliver a real-life quality and creative energy to the Picture; and,
• Leverage favorable market conditions to secure attractive distribution arrangements, operating in a
manner that seeks to distribute through major distributors in the U.S. and Canada, major distributors in
foreign territories, and U.S. ancillary rights direct to major licensees.

14. G. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY STRATEGY
The Company plans to protect and exploit its intellectual properties and artists’ work. The Company will
rely on a combination of copyright, patent, trademark and trade secret laws, along with contractual provisions to
protect its intellectual property rights. In the entertainment industry, the Writers Guild of America serves as the
recognized industry standard for the registration of artistic creations. Copyright registration is necessary to sell a
creative work or file a lawsuit for copyright infringement.
H. FACILITIES
The Company’s headquarters are located in Southern California, the heart of the entertainment community.
The Company’s current production capacity, including internal and external production, is mainly development
oriented, thus requiring less office workspace. Additional facilities will be needed, preferably 25 days or less after
financing. Selection of the future site will take into account the following:
• Geographical Location (West Hollywood, Santa Monica, or Hollywood)
• Tax Consequences (Local, State, Federal Tax Benefits)
• Building Layout and Size (All-Inclusive Corporate, Studio Suites)
• Cost to Maintain Facility
I. RISKS
Investment in Limited Liability interest discussed herein is highly speculative and involves a high
degree of risk.
The Company’s slate performance cannot be guaranteed. This Picture may not perform as projected.
Presented below are certain factors that potential investors should consider with respect to the investment.
Participation in the investment involves various risks relating to, among other things, the nature of the financing
vehicles and to the film industry itself. Participation in the investment is suitable only for persons or entities
with the financial capability of making and holding long-term investments and of sustaining the loss of a portion
or all of their investment. Before investing in the Company, investors should consider the following risk factors:
i. A HOUSE DIVIDED, LLC Specific Risks
a. FOREIGN DISTRIBUTERS PROJECTION ACCURACY
Inability to get Film Foreign Distributors to Accurately Account/or Receipts Owed. The Company
intends to request certain audit rights from the distributor of the Picture. These rights are intended to
protect the Company’s ability to claim its share of all revenues earned through the distribution of its
films. However, distributors can account for revenues in a manner that makes it difficult to
conclusively audit their efforts and determine the Company’s true share of the receipts are due.
ii. Industry-Specific Risks
a. A Competitive Marketplace
Motion picture production and distribution is highly speculative, inherently risky and unpredictable.
Each motion picture is an individual work and there can be no assurance of the economic success of
any motion picture since the revenues derived depends primarily upon its acceptance by the public,
which cannot be predicted. The commercial success of a motion picture also depends upon the
quality and acceptance of competing films released in the marketplace at or near the same time, the
availability of all forms of entertainment and leisure activities, general economic conditions, and other
tangible and intangible factors.

15. The entertainment industry in general, and the motion picture industry in particular, is continuing to
undergo significant changes, primarily due to technological developments. It is impossible to predict
the overall effect of these changes on the potential revenue from and profitability of motion pictures.
New entertainment products and services are continually being introduced to the marketplace. Video
games, music, film, television, and sports programming all compete for the attention of consumers.
Although the overall share of leisure time dedicated to viewing films has remained constant over the
past few years, there is no guarantee that this will continue.
b. Impact Of Technological Change And Film Piracy
The film industry is currently experiencing a great degree of technological change including the
development and use of digital film and online file sharing technologies. While some technologies,
such as the DVD, have increased industry revenues, the effect of recent developments on the industry
is still unknown as DVD sales have dropped noticeably in recent years. Film piracy remains a major
area of concern in the film industry, and these new technologies could contribute to the problem.
Piracy is currently concentrated in areas outside of North America including Asia, South America, the
former Soviet Union, and other Eastern European countries.
A number of organizations are attempting to take control of the problem. Trade embargoes and
restrictions have been used to encourage particular countries to institute and enforce strict copyright
laws.
c. Expansion of new media and emerging media platforms
The home entertainment marketplace has become saturated with a diversity of content from
YouTube, Hulu, to Blip, Vimeo and all other platforms available from Android and iOS marketplaces.
This has diversified our audiences time from going to the movie theater as regular as they use to.
Although the diversification has saturated the marketplace, there is a lot of potential with Video-OnDemand (VOD) and also creating partnerships with these platforms for new ways to target our
specific audience. The opportunities are available to tap into an larger marketplace and a more
sophisticated audience.

16. A HOUSE DIVIDED MOTION PICTURE
A. “A HOUSE DIVIDED” OVERVIEW
Logline:
In a suburban family, an unexpected inheritance awakens the seven deadly sins.
A story about a young writer who moves back with his parents only to see his little brother inherit millions
from a long-lost family friend, his jealousy prompts him to uncover shocking secrets that lead to surprising acts
of love and violence.
Synopsis:
In a single week, young writer Max Lyons loses everything—he gets evicted from his apartment, attacks his
boss with a croquet mallet, and ends up moving back home with his parents in a leafy suburb of Chicago. There
he struggles to get along with his withdrawn artistic mother, Helene, and his boozy, blustery father, Greg, while
romancing his old crush Emma. All is fine UNTIL Max’s happy-go-lucky little brother, Ben, suddenly inherits
$30 million upon the death of a long-lost family friend.
Soon the sudden inheritance fills the family with jealousy, greed and distrust, awakening the seven deadly
sins. Prompted by jealousy, Max, with the help of the mysterious and beautiful family housekeeper, Nadia,
investigates why he was left out of the money. Driven by greed, Greg manipulates Ben to save his failing real
estate business, while proud Helene tries to hold the family together. Under the allure of money, Emma falls
unexpectedly in love with Ben, not Max, driving both brothers to anger. Alliances seem to shift daily as the
family’s sins grow.
It all culminates on the last weekend of the summer at the family’s new lake house, where Max uncovers
shocking secrets about his parent’s past that explain the inheritance - and prompts acts of violence that will
either tear the family apart forever, or lead to the reconciliation and rebirth.

17. C. DIRECTOR
Brent Huff
Brent Huff has directed eight feature films in the last decade, following a distinguished career as an
actor and writer. His latest film, the hard-hitting documentary “Chasing Beauty,” which reveals the dark
side of the modeling industry, was distributed by MTV and peaked at #1 on iTunes, ahead of
contemporaneous films such as “Lincoln,” “Life of Pi,” “Zero Dark Thirty,” and “Argo.” His previous
feature films were the courtroom drama “Last Will” (2012), starring Academy Award winner Tatum
O’Neal, Academy Award nominee Tom Berenger, and James Brolin; and the noir thriller “Cat
City” (2009), a fragmented tale of corruption and murder starring Rebecca Pidgeon and Brian Dennehy,
which earned accolades at the Palm Springs, Rhode Island, Stony Brook, Methodfest, St. Louis, and
Prince Edward Island International Film Festivals and was distributed by Showtime.
Huff works in both short and feature formats. His recent short films include “Hero” (2012), an
uplifting drama which won Best Film awards at the Brooklyn, Pan Pacific, Cottonwood, Family and
Enfogue festivals; and “Helpless” (2011), a disturbing portrayal of an accident told from multiple
perspectives, which won Best Overall Film at the San Diego Indie Fest and the Jury Award at the
Riverside International Film Festival.
Additional highlights from Huff’s feature film directing career include “Serbian Scars” (2009), a
political thriller starring Michael Madsen, shot on location in Serbia; “Treasure Raiders” (2006), starring
David Carradine, one of the most expensive productions ever mounted in Russia, praised for its stunning
cinematography and action choreography; and “100 Mile Rule” (2003), a dark comedy starring Maria
Bello, Jake Weber, and Michael McKean, a festival favorite at Fort Lauderdale, Santa Barbara, Palm
Springs, Taos Talking Pictures, Nashville, Newport Beach, the USA Film Festival in Dallas, and the
closing night film at the Cinequest Film Festival. “Welcome to Paradise” (2007), starring Brian Dennehy
and Crystal Bernard, a gripping drama about a small-town female evangelist, had its theatrical release in
2007 and has enjoyed great success in the DVD market.
Huff’s most recent project was the documentary, “Behind the Orange Curtain” (2013), an expose of
the prescription drug abuse epidemic, which has so far won Best Film at the Metropolitan Film Festival,
sold out four screenings at the Newport Beach Film Festival, and was recently picked up for distribution
by Filmbuff.
His next project is to direct the family drama “A House Divided,” a tale of an unexpected inheritance
that splits two brothers and awakens the seven deadly sins within a family.
While many directors begin their careers in commercial and music videos, Huff comes from an
acting and storytelling background. Since age 15, he starred in more than 50 films. Thus, in addition to
his knack for visual flair, crisp pacing, beautiful images, and expressive musical choices, Huff
specializes in drawing spectacular performances from actors—the heart of the director’s craft.

F. GRITTY FAMILY DRAMA/THRILLER
We live and die within our families. No relationships are more important to us. The family provides fertile
ground for the most emotional and compelling stories. From epic family film sagas like “The Godfather” trilogy,
to classic Oscar-winning gritty family dramas like “Kramer vs. Kramer” and “Ordinary People,” to modern
critical and commercial hits like “American Beauty” and this year’s “The Descendants,” the genre is a timeless
one, ever popular with critics and audiences.
Many up-and-coming writers and directors have cut their teeth and established their reputations with gritty
family dramas. In particular, in the world of independent film, it is important that a film wins a positive
reception from market-makers in the critical establishment -- festivals, reviewers, and industry insiders -creating buzz that translates into audience awareness. The gritty family drama is perfectly positioned to capture
the attention of these market leaders.
Today’s audiences want the truth unspoiled. The gritty family drama/thriller gives us life unfiltered and real,
with all the cruelty, conflict, and, yes, redeeming love, that real life offers. An excellent film in this genre will be
well positioned to receive critical praise and awards recognition that multiplies its publicity, while attracting a
wide audience that sustains through word-of-mouth, launching the film to commercial success and propelling
the careers of the film’s creators and financiers.

The worldwide film industry continues to show consistent and substantial growth, demonstrating almost
‘recession-proof characteristics. Movie theaters continue to draw more people than all theme parks and major
U.S. sports combined. The average ticket price for a film increased by 32 cents in 2009 comparable to the
increase in 2008 – which is lower that the price jump in theme park and U.S. sporting events almost directly
across the board. Movie going remains the most affordable entertainment option and, the only option for a
family of four under $50 dollars.1

21. In 2009 and 2010, the leading Hollywood studios made more films and generated more revenue than ever
before, and for the first time in history the domestic box office grosses will surpass $10 billion. Neither the everincreasing piracy rates nor the global recession could prevent Hollywood having its best year ever in 2010. With
an estimated $10.8 billion in consumer spending at the US and Canadian box office, the movie industry will
break the 2008 record by nearly a billion dollars.2 Worldwide box office for all films reached $29.9 billion in
2009, up 7.6% over 2008’s total. International box office ($19.3 billion) made up 64% of the worldwide total,
while U.S. and Canada ($10.6 billion) made up 36%, a proportion consistent with the last several years. U.S./
Canada box office reached $10.6 billion in 2009, up 10.1% over 2008, and up 20.3% over five years ago.3
International box office increased 6.3% in 2009, with the largest growth (12.3%) in Asia Pacific. 81% of the
Asia Pacific increase occurred in Japan and China. Europe, Middle East & Africa (EMEA) remains more than
half (51%) of the international box office total.4
U.S./Canada movie admissions or tickets sold reached a five year high at 1.4 billion in 2009. Admissions
rose 5.5% from 2008, the first increase in two years. The national average of tickets sold per person (admissions
per capita) increased to 4.3 in 2009, the first increase since 2002.The 3D market was a key growth driver –11%
of 2009 box office, or $1.1 billion, came from 3D showings.5
B. TARGET MARKET
The Picture is geared toward the most active demographics in ticket sales within the entertainment industry:
young adults, the primary market; and mature adult and young couples as a secondary market. Spending trends
among young and adult filmgoers, television viewers, music listeners, and alternative target markets such as
online networks and video game players remains predictably strong.
The Company’s target market segments are:
• PRIMARY: 18-24 Years
• SECONDARY: 25-65 Years
C. COMPETITIVE PROFILES
The Company uses the team approach with aggressive pursuit, negotiation and production. Having been
involved with independent and studio feature film projects, the Company’s team relied on research, acumen and
discretion in selecting the Picture which has broad adult appeal while continuously tapping into the cultural
awareness both here in the United States and abroad. Our team of creative professionals and producers allows
the Company to form a differential advantage over the majority of entertainment companies.
The competition uses different, similar and sometimes the same means of distribution as A HOUSE
DIVIDED, LLC. Most companies in the entertainment business are run by executives who aren’t connected on
a first-hand basis with today’s youth and young adult target audiences and their ever-changing styles. The
Company feels that some of our competitors, on occasion are detached from the talent beds of America because
of their lack of desire to search for economically efficient, high concept and commercial projects geared toward
young adult markets. Their lack of aggressiveness will be overpowered by our own team who are ready to make
their mark on the entertainment community. Executives who aren't connected run most companies in the
entertainment business. By networking and using a team effort, the Company can beat the competition to the
hottest distribution deals, and, broadening out an audience in a new and cutting edge way.

22. The competition remains focused on projects and traditional forms of marketing and advertising. Seizing
the new opportunities presented by the Internet and social media, the Company’s active social networking
community will build enormous and loyal fan bases around the globe. Through exclusive partnerships with
industry powerhouses and strategic production partnerships, the Company will fast become industry leaders
through an exclusive access community platform bridging the gap between entertainment and social content.
D. COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES
i. Production Partnerships
The Company’s production strategy will capitalize off the Company’s production partnerships with
national/international production and post-production entities, state and national incentive/subsidy
programs, favorable exchange rates and various production cost benefits. Key to the Picture’s success is the
arrangements that the Company brings from international and domestic relationships. The Picture will
compromise a financial structure inclusive of a mix of the following country or state specific elements:
• Production Services
• Production Relationships
• Post-Production Relationship
• Government Film Agency -Subsidies/Incentives/Tax Credits
• Provincial Film Commission -Subsidies/Incentives/Tax Credits
• Bank -Country Specific Transaction Purposes
• Production Insurance -Country Specific Transaction Purposes
• Accounting Firm -Country Specific Transaction Purposes
• Legal Firm -Country Specific Transaction Purposes
The Company will select locations based on its cost effective working relationship with location intrinsic
production companies and production houses, knowledge of the area, general cost savings, and tax
considerations.
• Alternative locations offer significant cost advantages. Production costs can be substantially
reduced by taking advantage of lower labor costs, the utilization of government subsidies, tax
incentives, and financing deals.
• The Company has expertise in alternative location shooting. The Picture will benefit from our
knowledge of alternative locations and established relations with local partners in locations across
the USA.
The Company will work with dedicated production and post-production partners in Illinois on
advantageous terms. To maximize financial control, the Company will rely on trusted Line Producers
indigenous to each country or state. All films completed by the Company will have a credible Line
Producer, enabling us to identify script elements that may cause future budget overruns.
ILLINOIS TAX INCENTIVES
In December of 2008 the Illinois General Assembly passed the Illinois Film Production Tax Credit Act,
which offers producers a credit of 30% of all qualified expenditures, including post-production, and has no
sunset. The goal of the Tax Credit Act is to attract local vendors, union leaders and filmmakers to the Illinois
film industry in order to promote growth and job opportunities. In addition, the tax credit aims to stimulate
diversity in production hiring.
Tax Credit Benefits
• 30% of the qualified Illinois Production Spending.

23. 30% credit on Illinois salaries up to $100,000 per worker.

OTHER USA STATE INCENTIVES
Production activities are increasing in many key states. The following are the top production states outside
of California and New York based on several factors. The Company will capitalize off these opportunities
if they meet the project’s necessities and fit within in the schematic of the project’s budget and financial
formula. The most attractive filmmaking production states for Company are:
• Arizona is one of the few states that can double for Los Angeles and also offers production
incentives. The state issues a transferable tax credit of 30% if in-state expenditures are more than
$1 million, or 20% with in-state spend of $250,000 to $1 million. The minimum spend
requirement is $250,000. Five percent of the statewide cap is now reserved for commercials and
music videos.
• Louisiana recently increased their transferable income tax credit to 30% of expenditures incurred
within the state, e.g., purchases made from a Louisiana vendor. Above-the-line resident and nonresident labor qualify for this incentive, which has no salary caps. An additional 5% employment
credit is offered on the first million dollars of each Louisiana resident’s payroll. Also, the state
now provides for an 85 cent buy-back of all certified tax credits for projects which receive their
initial certification on or after July 1, 2009, and has increased the digital interactive media credit
to 25%. The minimum in-state spend is $300,000 and there is no per production or statewide
cap. All fringes qualify.
• Michigan’s incentive are one of the most generous in the U.S.: a 40% rebate for all materials and
services purchased or rented from Michigan vendors; 40% for Michigan crew and all above-theline salaries; and 30% for any out-of-state below-the-line crew. There is a $2 million cap per hire,
but no per-year or per-project cap. Loan-out companies will qualify for the rebate, provided that
Michigan tax of 4.35% is withheld. The rebate will not be processed until all loan-out state
withholding taxes have been paid.
• Missouri’s State Tax Credits are issued to a qualified film production company for up to 35% of
the amount expended in Missouri (or up to 30% for qualifying out-of-state cast and crew when
Missouri income taxes are withheld) for production or production-related activities to facilitate
film production in Missouri. To become eligible, a film production company must have an
A HOUSE DIVIDED | LONG FORM PROSPECTUS | NOT AN OFFERING !

!
Pg. 23 | December 16, 2013

24. expected instate expenditure budget of at least $100,000 for films more than 30 minutes in
length. This tax credit can be carried forward five years and is sellable or transferable. The entire
film production tax credit program is capped at $4.5 million. The incentive continues to offer an
income tax credit equal to 25% of the total in-state spend if at least 50% of the movie is shot instate or more than half the production budget is spent in-state, without salary or annual
production caps. Recent proposed legislation planning to cap salaries at $2M was repealed.
Filmmakers may choose to receive the credit as a rebate, equal to 90% of the face value
(guaranteed and rebated by the state), or the credit may be transferred or sold at the current
market rate.
• North Carolina provides a refundable income tax credit equal to 25% of all the goods, services,
and labor purchased and used in-state. There is a hire cap of $1M per person and any excess is
excluded from the production’s qualifying expenses. The maximum credit per feature film is $7.5
million and the minimum spend is $250,000. There is no cap on other types of eligible
production expenses. The gross amount of the film credit is subject to the 6.9% corporate income
tax (for those who are filing as a corporation), which reduces the net rebate check. Compensation
and wages paid to both resident and non-resident employees qualify if the services are performed
in North Carolina and withholding payments are remitted to the Department of Revenue.
• Oklahoma’s Film Enhancement Rebate Program provides a rebate of 35% (plus a 2% bonus for
local music) of documented expenditures made in Oklahoma directly attributable to the
production of a film, television production or commercial. Crew includes salaries paid to loan
out companies, provided they have registered to do business in the state, but cannot compromise
more than 25% of the total rebated amount.
• Pennsylvania’s film incentive provides a 25% transferable tax credit, with a maximum of $75
million available per fiscal year. The most recent budget allocated $42 million for the current
fiscal year, and $60 million for fiscal year 2010-2011. To qualify, 60% of the total production
spend, including post, must be for “qualified Pennsylvania expenses.” The incentive is then
calculated on the qualified (i.e., Pennsylvania) expenses. Cast and crew need not be Pennsylvania
residents, provided their wages are subject to state taxes. Also, goods and services necessary for
the production of the film qualify, but they must be purchased from Pennsylvania vendors or
through a Pennsylvania service company. There is an aggregate talent cap of $15 million per
picture.
While tradable State Tax Credit Incentive Programs have existed for years, the recent addition of tradable
Film Tax Credit Programs to the marketplace has fueled a frenzied competition among states to attract
filmmakers. Nearly every state in the US is offering a version of incentives, either in the form of a direct
rebate or as a tradable tax credit. The recoupment timeline would consist of the payment from the State
Tax Rebate Program and the revenue streams listed within a twelve to eighteen (12-18) month time
period from the start of production. This process usually takes 45-90 days, and can be monetized and
expedited at a discount at any point upon signing of the contract with the deciding body of the state or
governmental organization.

cutting edge of technological advancements. Moreover, this gives us the stage to achieve greater
production value at a post-production cost that could be expedited by up to 20%, thus saving productions
an enormous amount of money while not losing quality.
Worldwide cinema screens have remained constant over the past five years at just under 150,000 screens.
During that period, however, the growth in digital screens has accelerated. More than 16,000 screens or
11% of the total have been upgraded to digital. International screens – particularly in Europe –
constituted the majority of global digital screen growth in 2009. As a result, for the first time ever there
6
are now more digital screens internationally than in North America.
Digital cinematography accounts for a larger fraction of feature movie shooting every year and appears
destined to eventually eclipse film-based acquisition much as digital photo cameras have largely replaced
film based photo cameras in the still photography world. While most major motion pictures are still shot
on film, digital cinematography has gained widespread acceptance over the last few years. In 2009, the
Academy Award for Best Cinematography was awarded for a movie mostly shot digitally: “Slumdog
Millionaire.”
Many vendors have brought products to market including traditional film camera vendors like Arri and
Panavision, as well as new vendors like RED and Silicon Imaging, and companies which have traditionally
focused on consumer and broadcast video equipment like Sony and Panasonic. The Company plans to
utilize the newest, most advanced and most exciting forms of digital technology to not only reduce cost
but capture and create images in pioneering and proactive new forms.
iii. New Media Marketing and Distribution
In addition to marketing the film via traditional routes, the expansion of film festival and viral marketing
techniques, enables the Company to start on aggressive grassroots campaigns via social media portals.
Penetration of the social media outlets coupled with the Picture’s own purpose-built website, quickly and
effectively creates massive awareness and sparks a groundswell of interest.
It wasn’t long ago that content owners were reluctant to offer online entertainment due to piracy fears and
uncertainty over their “old model” advertising and syndication revenues. But growing consumer time
spent with online media, along with memories of the crisis the music industry faced for not embracing
change, have led to an explosion of online entertainment and news. At the same time, the emergence of
free blog publishing services and the cultural trend of social networking have led many web users to
create, post and read user-generated content. For companies like A HOUSE DIVIDED, LLC, our
content can be easily mapped and searched for online, along with their insider knowledge of film industry
news, the online entertainment and news phenomenon is presenting attractive new business
opportunities.
Accompanying the explosion in online media have been the dollars flowing into the space in advertising,
acquisitions and consumer spending on web video entertainment. Internet video is growing as users are
subscribing to their favorite entertainment sites and buying downloads a la carte. Due to the loyalty of
drama fans, the Company expects that downloads of digital content and web series will be a significant

26. business. Including advertising revenues, IDC (International Data Corporation) estimates a 50% CAGR
in the Internet video market over the next five years. 7
Production company websites, and more specifically, drama sites are scattered throughout the web, but
without focus. The Company’s goal is to create a branded site that is the first stop for all entertainment
fans, and in A HOUSE DIVIDED’s case – all drama fans and poker fans. TV and film-related content
may be found on a studio, production company, or movie download site, while industry news and fan info
may be featured on other competing sites. As of yet, however, there are few sites providing reliable overall
entrainment media network communities directly driven to the Company market and future fan base.
The Company views this as a significant opportunity.
Though websites can be built in a matter of days, it’s important to remember it takes months for a new site
to blossom into an effective marketing tool. For this reason, the Company will create our sites as early in
the development and preproduction process as possible. As a rule of thumb, websites take six months to
mature. And somewhere in the six-month range, traffic patterns develop consistency and visitor averages
are roughly the same from day to day.
And while television and radio remain the cornerstones of picture marketing spends, gobbling up 60% to
70% of a promo campaign's budget, audiences are dipping into everything from, Twitter to text messages
to Facebook to TV and the Internet -often simultaneously. The studios are spreading their marketing
dollars wider, across multiple venues, with multiple trailers, multiple approaches and specific demos in
their sights. There are no longer general-interest campaigns. Other marketing traditions such as static
movie billboards have also become an endangered species or have been shifted to supplement online
campaigns, as Sony did with “District 9.” Studios still devote 8% to 12% of their total marketing
campaigns on outdoor, but that number used to be much closer to 20%. It's a reflection of the increasingly
cluttered media environment that building awareness of a movie now demands more than just delivering a
message passively to prospective audiences. It's now about engaging them more directly.
Social media has modernized how to reach consumers in a new way; through the internet. In recent years
social mediums have drastically grown. This has tremendously increased the number of consumers that
producers are able to reach. Social mediums have not only grown in popularity with the increase in
consumer participants, but social mediums have also expanded globally. Twitter, for example has
expanded its global reach to Japan, Indonesia, and Mexico to name a few. This means that brands are now
able to advertise in multiple languages and therefore empower brand and consumer reach and ultimately
improve their brand awareness. Social media has become the new ‘tool’ for effective business marketing
and sales.
Social media can take many different forms, including Internet forums, weblogs, social blogs,
microblogging, wikis, podcasts, pictures, video, rating and social bookmarking. Technologies include:
blogs, picture-sharing, vlogs, wall-postings, email, instant messaging, music-sharing, crowdsourcing, and
voice over IP, to name a few. Many of these social media services can be integrated via social network
aggregation platforms like Mybloglog and Plaxo.
Examples of social media software applications include: 8

29. SALES AND DISTRIBUTION PLAN
A. DISTRIBUTION CHANNELS
NOTE: Both Preferred Content or Cassian Elwes ARE NOT ATTACHED, but we have had multiple
conversations with both parties and they have both expressed strong interest in the Motion Picture for coming
on as SALES AGENTS to rep the film for distribution and film festivals.
Cassian Elwes
Elwes began his producing career with 1983's "Oxford Blues" starring Rob Lowe and Ally Sheedy and
quickly went on to make another 29 films, including "Men at Work", with Emilio Estevez and Charlie Sheen,
and "The Chase" with Sheen.
In 1995, Elwes joined William Morris. His first effort was the long stalled project "The English Patient"
which won best picture that year. He quickly followed up with such indie hits as "Slingblade" and "The Apostle,"
both of which were nominated for multiple Oscars. "Monster's Ball" was their follow up, which won the Oscar
for Halle Berry.
The Hollywood Reporter has said that Elwes was "involved in a virtual who's who of every great
independent film of the last ten years" with films such as "Thank You For Smoking", "Half Nelson", and "Frozen
River" '(the last two of which garnered Oscar nominations for Ryan Gosling and Melissa Leo respectively).
"What people lose sight of," Elwes said to Screen International, "is that these films cost a tenth of the films
that they competed against at the Academy Awards. The privilege was the recognition."
Elwes is an expert in the field of arranging financing and distribution for independent films having done so
for 283 films during his tenure at William Morris Independent.
Since leaving William Morris Independent two years ago, Elwes has been involved in arranging financing
and distribution for 23 films including "Lawless," directed by John Hillcoat ("The Road"), starring Shia LaBeouf
and Tom Hardy, and the thriller "The Paperboy," directed by Lee Daniels ("Precious"), starring Matthew
McConaughey and Zac Efron. Elwes produced the period drama The Butler, which was directed by Lee Daniels
and featured an ensemble cast, including Forest Whitaker, Oprah Winfrey, John Cusack, Jane Fonda, Terrence
Howard, Vanessa Redgrave, Alan Rickman, Liev Schreiber, and Robin Williams, among others.
Additionally, he is producing "Dallas Buyers Club" starring Matthew McConaughey and Jennifer Garner,
"Saints" starring Rooney Mara, Casey Affleck and Ben Foster, and "Hateship, Loveship" starring Kristen Wiig,
Guy Pearce, Hailee Steinfeld and Nick Nolte.
On October 29, 2013, Elwes launched the Cassian Elwes Independent Screenwriter Fellowship, in
conjunction with The Black List, to award one writer an all-expenses-paid trip to the 2014 Sundance Film
Festival and mentorship from Elwes. Elwes and The Black List plan to award the fellowship annually

30. with Christine Vachon's Killer Films that specializes in content for distribution on digital platforms).
Prior to founding PC and his suite of affiliated companies, Iwashina spent 10 years at the Creative Artists
Agency (CAA), where he was a talent agent, specializing in film packaging, financing and distribution.

of the Coalition of Asian Pacifics in Entertainment (CAPE) and is a Member of the Board of Directors of the
International Documentary Association (IDA). He began his career in the mailroom at the United Talent
Agency (UTA).
B. PROJECT DISTRIBUTION STRATEGY
Television sales for a film can return revenue over many years if the audiences receive it as a classic. Drama/
Thriller pictures ranging from “Disturbia,” to “American Beauty,” to “The Breakfast Club,” among hundreds of
others, are all household names that continue to play on television. This is an important factor since distributors
and networks are constantly looking for new material. Secondary markets including DVD sales/rentals coupled
with ancillary market revenue streams such as merchandising, video games, publishing of graphic novels and
comic books, and music will all lend themselves favorably toward producing substantial revenue when licensed
or sold as soundtracks, apparel, toys or other goods based on the film’s story and characters. With cheap rental
services like Redbox eating into profits, the studios are turning to video-on-demand; an area that the Company
will strategically focus on and use as both a primary and supplementary form of distribution and exposure.
Over the last ten years, entertainment and character licensing has grown tremendously. Merchandise
licensing affords the Company opportunities to enhance brand image and increase revenue streams from the
Picture. Licensors receive a royalty payment that is usually a percentage of the net wholesale price of the
product. This royalty stream adds another low-risk cash flow that, because the licensor incurs no manufacturing
or marketing costs, translates directly into profits. Not only one of the most popular types of licensing, it is also
one of the most profitable. The International Licensing Industry Merchandisers’ Association (LIMA), the
leading trade organization that also tracks licensing data, estimates overall North American retail sales of
licensed merchandise to be about $110 billion, with royalties of about $6 billion. Of retail sales, historically
about 45% have come from character and entertainment licensing. Last year, LIMA’s statistical survey put
North American entertainment property royalty revenues at $2.6 billion.9
There is a critical shift underway in the marketplace today, as media services are becoming increasingly
digitized and interactive, and advances in compression technology are reducing the bandwidth requirements.
The network access bandwidths widely available as consumer services are increasing. The convergence of these
trends coupled with advanced telecommunications capabilities and media-rich content is fundamentally
changing the nature of on-demand service delivery. Because the technology makes content almost instantly
accessible, customers have come to expect anywhere, anytime delivery of very high-quality video and other rich
media types to both wired and mobile devices. Video-on-demand (VOD), for example, is expected to grow to a
very respectable $35 billion industry worldwide by 2014.
Television VOD systems either stream content through a set-top box, allowing viewing in real time, or
download it to a device such as a computer, digital video recorder (also called a personal video recorder) or
portable media player for viewing at any time. The majority of cable-and telco-based television providers offer
both VOD streaming, including pay per-view and free content, whereby a user buys or selects a movie or
television program and it begins to play on the television set almost instantaneously, or downloading to a DVR
rented from the provider, or downloaded onto a PC, for viewing in the future. Internet television, using the

31. Internet, is an increasingly popular form of video on demand. VOD is expected to grow exponentially, creating a
host of opportunities. Ongoing changes within each of the media, technology and telecom sectors guarantee
that video-ondemand will become a major force in media delivery over the next few years.
Highlighted examples of the rapid growth of VOD include: global annual revenue from rental transactions
of full-length movies and TV shows on Pay-TV and online platforms generating $2.2bn in 2008, forecasted to
grow to $3.7BN by 201410 ; VOD will generate $330 million a year (in the UK) in ‘direct revenue’ by 201311 ;
the sum of all forms of video (TV, video on demand, Internet, and P2P) will account for over 91% of global
consumer traffic by 2013, with Internet video alone will account for over 60% of all consumer Internet traffic in
201312 ; Digital media revenue will jump about 270% between 2009 and 2013 to $3.28 billion13 . The total home
entertainment market in the US (all platforms – DVD/BD, TV-based VOD, online video and mobile video) is
projected to generate over $25 billion in revenues in 2009. Paid-for VOD revenues are expected to witness
steady growth moving forward, as the closure of VOD windows increases the appeal of premium on-demand
content. Global revenue for digital formats will grow to $2 billion in 2013, from about $500 million this year.
US revenue in the first half of the year was about $140 million.14
Video on Demand services and their accompanying digital video set-top boxes continue to improve. The
Roku digital video player has been solely a way to stream Netflix' Instant Watch movies to your TV at a cost of
$99 for over 12,000 titles. And now Roku is teaming up with Amazon to provide access to their 40,000 titles
available on Amazon Video on Demand. Roku owners will soon be able to buy or rent titles to instantly stream
from the Amazon Video on Demand service, some films being released the same day they come out on DVD.
LG has essentially put the VOD box directly in the television with the new ‘broadband HDTVs’ (in both LCD
and Plasma) will be able to instantly stream the Netflix selection of on demand films. Again, this is a new and
exciting area of distribution that the Company plans to fully incorporate into our business model and
distribution strategy.
i. Distribution Approach
Every film needs a customized distribution strategy. The Company will be creating a strategy for the
Picture well before the film enters production, thus increasing awareness and striving for the highest
possible revenue streams available. Some of these strategies include:
a. Split Distribution Rights in Foreign Territories
While in the old world of distribution all domestic rights were usually given to one company; hybrid
distribution enables rights to be split more finely and effectively. This enables filmmakers to retain
direct sales rights including the right to sell DVDs from their websites and at screenings while
holding the rights to sell downloads and rentals from their sites. Most often filmmakers also retain
theatrical and semi-theatrical. VOD, television, and retail DVD deals are usually made with separate
distribution partners. Deals are often made with educational partners but some filmmakers are
retaining these rights. Digital rights for avenues like iTunes are more complicated—they are
sometimes given to the retail DVD distributor or the VOD distributor and sometimes licensed
separately.

Pg. 31 | December 16, 2013

32. Rights can be usefully divided into eight domestic and international categories:
• Theatrical
• Retail DVD
• Semi-Theatrical & Non-theatrical
• Direct DVD
• Video-On-Demand
• Educational
• Television
• Digital Rental & Download
While splitting up rights is complicated and time consuming, it allows each right to be exploited well,
avoids cross-collateralization (where expenses from one area of distribution eat away at revenues from
others), and allows a filmmaker to retain overall distribution control.
b. Choose Effective Distribution Partners in each territory worldwide
In the old world where all domestic distribution rights were usually lumped together, certain rights
were often poorly utilized or completely overlooked. In the new world, it is important to determine
how best to exploit every right without neglecting any of them.
Filmmakers can handle some rights most successfully on their own. In other areas, the goal is to find
the distribution partner, or sales agent, with the skills and experience to be most effective. Ideally this
partner has an impressive track record with similar films or particular niche audiences. Before signing
any deal with a distribution partner, it is essential to speak with other filmmakers currently or recently
in business with the company.
c. Circumscribe Rights
Grant each distribution partner only the specific rights they can handle well. For example, if a
company is strong in retail DVD and digital, give them these rights, but do not also give them VOD
if they have no experience with VOD. Carefully limit the rights (scope, term, exclusivity) granted to
each partner. Make sure the rights given to different distributors complement each other without
conflicting. Make as many deals as possible at the same time so the rights given in one area do not
subsequently prevent you from making deals in other areas.
d. Craft Win-Win Deals
Design deals that will work well for both your distribution partner and you. Divide revenues fairly
and define responsibilities clearly. Build in guarantees (e.g. minimum number of cities and marketing
spend, performance guarantee), approvals (e.g. deals, marketing, editing), and safeguards (e.g. escape
clauses, expense cap, bankruptcy protection, limits on assignment, dispute resolution).
e. Retain Direct Sales Rights
Retain the domestic and international rights to sell DVDs (from your website and at screenings) and
downloads and streams (from your website). Also retain the rights to screen the film theatrically and
semi-theatrically. Direct sales are the lynchpin of a hybrid distribution strategy. They have four
significant advantages over third-party sales:
• Higher profit margins – A DVD sold directly from a filmmaker’s website can easily yield profit
margins 7-8 times as high as DVDs sold in retail.
• Faster payment – Filmmakers usually receive payments faster from PayPal or a fulfillment
company than they would from a distributor.
• Revenues aren’t split with middlemen – Filmmakers receive all of the revenues, after
manufacturing and fulfillment costs.
A HOUSE DIVIDED | LONG FORM PROSPECTUS | NOT AN OFFERING !
!
!
Pg. 32 | December 16, 2013

33. • Customer information – Filmmakers receive data on all customers who make purchases from their
websites, but do not get any information on consumers who buy through third-party retailers.
This data enables filmmakers to stay in touch with purchasers and offer them other products.
f. Maximize Direct Revenues
In addition to selling DVDs directly from their websites, filmmakers can also sell other products they
produce (e.g. soundtrack albums, companion books, posters, hats, and t-shirts). Filmmakers can also
purchase related products from third parties (e.g. books, DVDs, CDs) that will be of particular
interest to their audiences. As online retailers, they can buy these products at wholesale and resell
them from their sites at retail.
g. Grow And Nurture Audiences
Independents can expand their films’ audiences by building mailing lists, communicating effectively
and developing ongoing relationships with subscribers. They should provide them with valuable and
engaging content, while keeping sales pitches to a minimum. They should also create a content-rich,
dynamic, and interactive website that encourages participation. Their ultimate goal is to develop a
core personal audience that can support future projects through contributions and purchases.
ii. INVESTMENT and EXIT/PAYBACK STRATEGY
There are several elements the Company can entertain in order to offset the investment exposure with
regards to the Picture. The Company will implement, if feasible for the project, tax credits and subsidies,
branded content and product placement/corporate sponsorship, and most importantly, pre-sales in order
to expedite recoupment and insure the investment in the project. As soft monies return into the fold, via
pre-sales, additional subsidies, or assorted contracts, recouped early in the production process of each
film, these will serve as quick avenues to returning investment. Naturally, any investor financing would be
in a first position of recoupment and secured by a lien on the ownership (all rights) of the film title and all
revenue (Theatrical Box Office receipts, Rentals, Pay Cable/TV, Network TV, DVD Sales, and any/all
Residuals) into perpetuity until the original investment plus interest has been fully recouped. At such
time of full recoupment the lien on the title will be released back to the Company.
The Company will focus on international sales companies who support products that funnel directly into
the commercial marketplace and who specialize in drama and low-budget motion pictures. The
Company’s goal will be to secure an international sales agent early in the production process. This will
allow the agent to use key festivals such as Sundance, Berlin, Cannes, and the Toronto Film Festival to
introduce the film to the world marketplace. Sales will continue on through the American Film Market
(AFM). The Company will engage a sales rep who specializes in the US marketplace to help us maximize
our sales opportunities. Our plan for distributing projects produced by the Company will utilize markets
and festivals as a platform for sales, but the Company will not proceed forward without having sales
agents and potential distributors earmarked having reviewed and expressed genuine interest in the
Picture.
Internationally, the Company will utilize the festival circuit as platforms for international screenings and
sales. Again, broad-based genre films are very popular in both North America as well as in Europe and
internationally as a whole. Movies now often earn more of their box office overseas than they do in the
U.S., and a film's performance in Italy or Russia is as important as its New York City numbers. Just look at

34. the $687 million haul of Fox's "Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs" around the world (77% of its gross)
compared with $197 million domestically. In 2009, Sony passed the $2 billion mark overseas for the first
time ever with pictures like “2014” and the Michael Jackson documentary “This Is It” appealing to
international audiences. It was the fourth studio to ever do so, with Warner Bros., Paramount and Fox also
reaching that milestone this decade.15
Utilizing a risk-mitigating model centered on a portfolio of projects focused on a high-profile genre and
demographic, cost-reducing methods of production, and key sales alliances, the Company will see a rapid
acceleration of recoupment and fast entry into a library of exponentially growing revenues.
This has opened up a whole new area for both private and institutional investors to enter and negotiate
better deals with a more favorable recoupment position and participation. The recent slowdowns of real
estate and the stock market in delivering solid returns has helped shift Wall Street’s focus to Hollywood as
the worldwide film industry continues to show consistent and substantial growth, demonstrating
‘recession-proof ’ characteristics.
Additionally, as the Company will utilize 10% of the overall equity raise for operational and discretionary
expenses, each Investment Partner will be given a pro rata share of equity in A HOUSE DIVIDED, LLC.
Definition of Receipts: For purposes of this, production shall mean that all monies actually received by
the distributor and the production, including all subsidiaries, parent and affiliated companies involved in
the production and/or exploitation of the picture, from all sources of exploitation of the picture after
deduction of taxes, duties, tariffs and similar costs required be paid in connection with the exploitation of
the picture.
a. International Pre-Sales and Distribution
If sensible, A Foreign Sales Agency Agreement should be executed prior to production. In addition,
production should review the potential candidates and identify a priority listing based upon their
current portfolio, ability to sell our product, output deals, and most importantly the ability to make
collections once the territory is sold.
Again there should be minimal selling of the property to the foreign marketplace until after the North
American distributor is confirmed to increase the potential foreign revenue with a domestic theatrical
release – the ultimate distribution goal. After which, the international sales can continue throughout
the year based on what the buyers appetite & needs are with respect to levels of guarantees/valuations.

35. ii. North American Theatrical Pre-Sales and Distribution
Securing North American Distribution is the obvious engine that drives all other valuations, negotiation
leverage, and product placement efforts. For all major business decisions, there will be a management

36. INVESTMENTS AND FINANCIALS
Investing in a Motion Picture has a multitude of elements that can make it not only rewarding, but also very
exciting. There is no other business that brings the glitz and the glamour to an individual experience than that of
a feature length picture. From giant sets, movie stars and down to the intricacies that go into the physical
production, to the premiers, red carpets, and film festivals, it is something that few ever get to see first hand.
(See the Conclusion for a list of benefits as an Investor)
Still, with all the thrills that it brings, there is also a notable amount of risk. However, through the
established managers of the Company, their extensive knowledge, background in the entertainment industry,
and the contacts that they all bring, those risks can be minimized. It is still best to look at the whole picture and
understand the pros and cons of investing in the Picture.
A. STATE OF INDUSTRY
Over the last ten years, Wall Street has favored asset-based transactions. It’s now evolved toward packaging
other types of assets, which has led to backing content and intellectual property, i.e. entertainment, and
specifically motion pictures. And with the recent slowdowns of real estate and the stock market in delivering
solid returns on investment this has helped shift Wall Street’s focus to Hollywood.
That's opened up a whole area for investors, both private and institutional, to come in and negotiate better
deals and have a more favorable recoupment position and participation in these films. With studios focused on
the major releases, and fewer products in the distribution chain to offset flops, they have no choice really but to
partner with independent sources to not only provide product for the other distribution markets, but also to
mitigate risk on the larger, big event pictures. This is one of the most important reasons why studios began
working with hedge funds. Other reasons for this movement are:
• The number of studios that are now publicly traded is at it a peak.
• The parent companies want them to leverage more capital without diluting their shares, or control, or risk
weakening the balance sheet.
• The studios are looking to defray costs by an average of 40% -50%, and by using less of their own money
they increase the likelihood of jumping the return on the invested (on-the-books) capital to its
shareholders.
This means investors will:
• Receive greater participation;
• Lower risk; and
• Increased investor profit.
These new opportunities have created the foundation for the Company and our potential investors to
become involved at a more participatory level.
B. FINANCIAL SUMMARY
The Company has adopted strict financial protocols to ensure prudent use of funds and to maximize
Investment Partner returns. The Company’s total cash flows are used first to repay the production equity, and
then flow through the profit waterfall at a 90/10 split. Investment Partners receive 90% of all returns until 120%
of the initial investment has been recovered. The other 10% will go to the Company to support they’re efforts to
recoup all revenue generated by the picture. Of the remaining net profits, Investment Partners receive 50% and
the Company receives 50%. In addition, the Picture that the Company intends to produce will earn ancillary
revenue (i.e. video-on-demand, syndicated and cable TV, merchandising) at similar levels of feature films
costing up to ten times more. When the film becomes successful in the marketplace, all proceeds from the film

Pg. 36 | December 16, 2013

37. paid to the LLC, after deduction of the fees and expenses owed to distributors and sales agents from worldwide
gross receipts for all media will be paid out as follows:
• Each investor shall recoup, on a pari passu basis with all other investors, one hundred and twenty percent
(120%) of said investor’s contributed funds. By way of example, if an individual’s investment is $50,000,
he/she would recoup $60,000 prior to payments to any other party, except for other equity investors;
• After the Picture’s budget (or 120% of the final Picture budget) has been allocated to the equity investors
any outstanding residuals and/or deferred payments will be distributed.; and
• Following these distributions, further proceeds will be split, with 50% going to the investors and 50%
going to the Company and any other profit participants, in perpetuity.
C. USE OF FUNDS
The utilization of funds will be for: operating overhead need to launch company; and the negative cost of
each motion picture developed, financed, produced and/or acquired.
i. Operation Overhead
The investment proceeds will be used to purchase, build, develop, acquire, and finance the equipment,
facilities, and working capital to meet the company’s monthly and yearly overhead. This will also include
the retention of corporate and industry specialists.
ii. Production (Pre to Post)
When the production process begins, the funds will be used fund all the above-the-line and below-theline costs associated with the film. Everything from writer, director, cast and crew through to delivery of
the master prints to distributers.
iii. Marketing and P&A
Marketing, film festivals, and Prints & Advertising (P&A) are all part of moving the product, our film.
We need to make sure we have enough funds to successfully push the film to any festival, markets, and all
distributers (foreign and domestic). This is the most important step to recouping the investment.
D. PROFIT and LOSS PROJECTIONS
The Company measures performance by breaking down the revenues and costs of the Picture’s negative cost,
budget levels and performance. All of the revenue streams and releasing cost line items were taken from industry
standard budgets and historical information provided by independent and studio statistics. Over the years, these
numbers have been amassed via industry data from multiple sources. It is important to note that film analysis are
categorized by genres too and that drives the profitability and the percentages linked to the Domestic Box
Office (DBO). For instance, the film genres of drama, horror, romance thrillers, sci-fi and drama are all different
financial models and percentages of revenue and cost.
E. CASH FLOW PROJECTIONS
Most of a film’s life cycle in terms of revenue streams is realized within the film’s first 3 years. Cash flow
timing is predicated on the timing of receipts (revenue) and disbursements (costs). Upon all of the terms of the
financing, these models will be more defined by each film in the release slate. Given all of the financial analysis
provided in this business plan, the Company will be successful in the film market, as management will closely
monitor the trends and adapt to the marketplace. Performance will be tracked and comprehensive
entertainment industry data will be provided to management on a consistent basis to assist with the decisionmaking process.

38. F. RELEASE WINDOWS and REVENUE STREAMS
i. Domestic -Foreign Distribution Revenue
Motion picture revenue is derived from the worldwide licensing of a motion picture for: (a) theatrical
exhibition; (b) non-theatrical exhibition (airplanes, hotels, military bases, and other facilities); (c) pay
television systems for delivery by the means of cable, over-the-air and satellite systems; (d) commercial
television networks; (e) local commercial television stations and (f ) the reproduction on DVD for home
use. Revenue is also derived from licensing ‘ancillary rights’ to a motion picture from published music,
soundtrack albums, merchandising, and product placement. Distribution rights can be taken by one
company for all distribution regions and corridors by multiple distributors (e.g. domestic and foreign) for
specific regions.
ii. Revenue Stream Timeline
A film’s ‘first cycle’ generally begins with a U.S. theatrical release. The film’s performance at the box office
will then drive its release into other domestic and international corridors. Distributors carefully calibrate
the film’s release through these corridors to achieve maximum revenue realization.
• Tax Credits and Rebates
• Product Integration
• Foreign Distribution Fees
• Theatrical Box Office Receipts
• DVD Rentals
• Pay Cable/TV
Recoupment of Equity Investment will take approximately 14 – 24 months (from the first date of release)
depending on the financial variables. The breakdown of the main sources of revenue is outlined as follows:

soundtrack or for other recording and performance purposes; and,
• Merchandising rights: a film merchandising rights can be licensed to produce articles such as
apparel, and other goods based on the film’s story and characters; and,
• New Media: a film’s internet rights can be licensed to websites, social media forums, blogs,
microblogs, forums and live castings.
G. INVESTMENT INSURANCE
The film’s script, director, producers and overall production team are the crucial factors that form the
foundation to assure investors that a film will be made the best it can be, and each production carries with it a
full package of Motion Picture Insurance (Production, General Liability, Errors & Omissions, Worker’s
Compensation and Guild/Union Accident). To further ensure the investor that the film will be completed on
budget and delivered on time, the producers include multiple insurance measures to mitigate risk for the
Investment Partners through tax incentives as well as providing varying insurance elements to complement the
Company’s smart, protective and conservative production and distribution plans.
i. CONTINGENCY
A contingency percentage is built into the Picture’s budget. The Company requires the budget to contain
a contingency of 10% -calculated on below the line totals. Contingency serves as a cushion should there
be cost overruns on the film. The standard contingency for motion pictures is 10%.
J. CONCLUSION
The Company’s management team and advisors have proven track records of producing. Their collective
strategy is to become a leading supplier of profit-driven entertainment products and talent. The Picture’s
strategy is to become -along with its team members and partners – is to exceed in every level and become
successful within the indie drama circuit and eventually be referred to as a classic film viewed by its audience.

40. The Company believes it will exceed beyond expectations due to the management’s consistent ability to produce
quality, cutting edge, commercial projects. The potential upside for profit is unlimited.
The exponentially growing audience in the world of successful indie dramas demonstrates that there is a
strong demographic for “A HOUSE DIVIDED.” The Picture has the appeal that previously successful drama
films had to excel in the market place time and time again. The Company knows that success through a high
profile film festival would drive tremendous amount of traffic to the promotion of the film. That coupled with a
family friendly MPAA rating of ‘R’ will open the Picture to a wide demographic ranging from late teens to those
in their 40’s and 50’s.
Management and Advisory Team Resources and Assets:
• Highly experienced and successful team with a focused business strategy that leverages several key creative
partnerships, and a fiscally conservative approach governed by strict protocols and financial covenants
• Strong business and creative relationships with agencies, law firms, public relations companies, and
producers in all facets of the motion picture process including production, distribution, marketing and
management
• Direct access to distribution arms and ancillary distribution elements through most studios and boutique
distribution companies
Expanding the potency of the Investment by:
• Forming relationships with companies that assist in using in-kind services for locations, equipment, art
direction and postproduction; and,
• Using tax incentives which can garner up to 35% of the budget back in soft money, dependent on the state
in which production is focused; and,
• Shooting digitally, allowing a more affordable solution to shooting, post production and distribution due
to the cutting edge and climate of technology today; and,
• Creatively using resources that the management teams has acquired through the years of experience.
“A HOUSE DIVIDED” hits on a key genre of filmmaking and combines some of the most powerful
filmmaking, strong audience appeal during award season which can turn it into a viable motion picture. The
strong indie drama script will allow for A-List talent to get involved in the project, some of whom the Company
has been in contact with, and allows it to the potential of being a big success by capturing a strong audience and
word-of-mouth success.
The Picture also brings with it to investors a piece of the Hollywood glamour. Investors will have the ability
to:
• Visit set during production
• Meet the actors and crew of the Picture

but the highest expectations of what is to come.

credit, we can receive around 80¢ on the $1 for the tax credit, if we decide to use it during the production, we
can receive between 85¢ to 95¢ on the dollar or we can keep the credit and monetize its value after the
completion of the film and receive its full value as a tax credit towards the Picture and begin to start paying back
our investors at this point.
