in addition to not meeting any of cash flow promises I new partnerships / valuations promised on calls every 2
months with andrew lindsay we were never aware of how dire position was that hosain has had to fund payroll
if things were moving in right direction how come they are feuding with Blackrock
medtronic and microsoft were 2 proposed partnerships yet medtronic signs deal with titbit

i spoke with Andrew Linsey, Anna and Will from Code Advisors as Hosain was unavailable last week
only 5,000,000 of investment would be covered as this can only apply to preferred shares
our investment in Series 5 was as follows:
Preferred 695,301 x 7.19113 = 5,000,000
Common 1,260,233 x 3.96792 = 5,000,000
I was told on call that valuation of company at time of Series 5 was 1,650,000 post
EFTA00630741
Series 6, 7, 8 and Blackrock note have further diluted our investment and although they would not give me an
exact figure our new breakeven without Series 8 participation appears to be 3,250,000
With Series 8 investment of 833,000 i believe believe we would receive the following on a sale of company
post April 28 2016
1,000,000
7,500,000 from preferred and 0 from common (0 received without Series 8)
2,000,000
7,500,000 from preferred and 0 from common (0 received without Series 8)
3,000,000
7,500,000 from preferred and 0 from common (0 received without Series 8)
3,250,000
7,500,000 from preferred and 5,000,000 from common (10,000,000 received without Series 8)
it appears Series 8 protection provides protection from 1,000,000 to 3,250,000 on liquidation
April 28 2016 is key date as it is 1 year anniversary of Blackrock investment and if company sold before that
date they have a 3x liquidation preference
As of last friday they have raised 33,000,000 of the 35,000,000 needed for Blackrock to release final
50,000,000
If that is achieved they would have raised since April 28 2015:
220,000,000 Blackrock original note
40,000,000 Series 8 JPM (34) and Sequia (6)
50,000,000 Blackrock additional
35,000,000 Series 8 (33mm raised to date)
50,000,000 Blackrock final
395,000,000 Total raised
As of Sep 11, 2015 there cash flow was as follows:
30,000,000 in cash
85,000,000 (Series 8 and final Blackrock)
115,000,000 potential cash
Once 85,000,000 is secured they will finalize deal for an ABL credit line in the amount of 50,000,000 that will
be collateralized by AR and Inventory
They mentioned that Q4 would be cash flow positive however they did not elaborate on what their loss for
2015 or 2016 would be..
When i pressed them and said i thought they would would be out of money by mid 2016 and we again may be
further diluted with a Series 9 or 10 they responded that they had new management that would not allow this
They said Jason Child, new CFO, has already run analysis to ensure that they remain cash flow positive in 2016
Not sure that is so realistic as they also mentioned that Fitbit already has market share and that they will not
chase market share via lower pricing or marketing
In addition they will not build large inventories with vendors if they need to conserve cash
Andrew stated that Hosain made poor non financially focused decisions and new CFO will not allow that
moving forward
Jawbone believes it will be the leader in the next phase which will evolve from basic wellness to health and
medical (blood pressure, respiration and oxidation)
Analogy was used that basic wellness market is similar to Smartphones in the early 2000's and Symbian who
was leader disappeared
My concerns are as follows:
EFTA00630742
a) Jawbone is always one step behind and they keep jumping to the next Hot idea..
b) There will inevitably be a Series 9 / 10 round as i believe they will again run out of cash middle of next year
causing further dilution to Series 8 they are asking us to participate in
Andrew also sent email with codes for free UP 2 or UP 3 product
I will order and have for you on your next visit (do you have a color preference - black, silver, indigo and red?)

Please advise how you want to proceed with Series 8 proposed investment of 833,000
Thank you
