i spoke with Andrew Linsey, Anna and Will from Code Advisors =s Hosain was unavailable last week only 5,000,000 of
=nvestment would be covered as this can only apply to preferred =hares
our =nvestment in Series 5 was as follows:
Preferred 695,301 x 7.19113 = =,000,000
Common 1,260,233 x 3.96792 = =,000,000
I =as told on call that valuation of company at time of Series 5 was =,650,000 post Series 6, 7, 8 and Blackrock =ote have
further diluted our investment and although they would not =ive me an exact figure our new breakeven without Series 8
participation =ppears to be 3,250,000
With Series 8 investment of 833,000 i believe believe we =ould receive the following on a sale of company post April 28
=016
1,000,000 7,500,000 from preferred and 0 =rom common (0 received without Series 8)
2,000,000 =nbsp; =/span>7,500,000 from preferred and 0 from common (0 received without =eries 8)
3,000,000 7,500,000 =rom preferred and 0 from common (0 received without Series 8)
3,250,000 7,500,000 from preferred and =,000,000 from common (10,000,000 received without Series 8)
it appears Series 8 =rotection provides protection from 1,000,000 to 3,250,000 on =iquidation
April 28 2016 is key date as it is 1 year anniversary of =lackrock investment and if company sold before that date they
have a 3x =iquidation preference
As of last friday they have raised 33,000,000 =f the 35,000,000 needed for Blackrock to release final =0,000,000 If that is
achieved they =ould have raised since April 28 2015:
220,000,000 Blackrock original =ote
40,000,000 Series 8 JPM (34) and Sequia =6)
50,000,000 Blackrock =dditional
35,000,000 Series 8 (33mm raised =c) date)
50,000,000 =nbsp; Blackrock final
395,000,000 =nbsp;Total raised
As of Sep 11, 2015 there =ash flow was as follows:
30,000,000 in cash
85,000,000 (Series 8 and final Blackrock)
115,000,000 potential cash

EFTA02488361
Once 85,000,000 is secured they will =inalize deal for an ABL credit line in the amount of 50,000,000 that =ill be
collateralized by AR and Inventory
They mentioned that Q4 would be cash =low positive however they did not elaborate on what their loss for 2015 =r
2016 would be..
When i pressed them and said i =hought they would would be out of money by mid 2016 and we again may be =urther
diluted with a Series 9 or 10 they responded that they had new =anagement that would not allow this
They said Jason Child, new CFO, has =lready run analysis to ensure that they remain cash flow positive in =016
Not sure that is so realistic as they also =entioned that Fitbit already has market share and that they will not =hase
market share via lower pricing or marketing
In =ddition they will not build large inventories with vendors if they need =o conserve cash
Andrew stated that Hosain made =oor non financially focused decisions and new CFO will not allow that =oving forward
Jawbone believes it will be =he leader in the next phase which will evolve from basic wellness to =ealth and medical
(blood pressure, respiration and oxidation)
Analogy was used that basic wellness market is similar to =martphones in the early 2000's and Symbian who was leader
=isappeared
My concerns are as follows:
a) Jawbone =s always one step behind and they keep jumping to the next Hot =dea..
b) There will inevitably be a Series 9 / 10 =ound as i believe they will again run out of cash middle of next year =ausing
further dilution to Series 8 they are asking us to participate =n
Andrew also sent email with codes for free UP 2 or UP 3 =roduct
I will order and have for you on your next =isit (do you have a color preference - black, silver, indigo and =ed?)

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