PRELIMINARY
INFORMATION STATEMENT
Purrfect
Pet Club, Inc.
Common
and Preferred Stock
(par
value $0.001 per share)
This
information statement is being furnished in connection with the distribution to
holders of common and preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Ensurapet,
Inc.. (“Ensurapet”) of all the outstanding shares of common and preferred stock,
par value $0.001 per share, of Purrfect Pet Club, Inc.(“Purrfect
Pet”).
We are
currently a subsidiary of Ensurapet. Following the spin-off, our business will
consist of the assets and liabilities that currently comprise the Purrfect Pet
Club business of Ensurapet.
Shares of
our common and preferred stock will be distributed to holders of Ensurapet
common and preferred stock of record as of 5:00 p.m., Canton, Ohio time, June 1,
2009, which will be the record date. These stockholders will receive one share
of our common stock for every share of Ensurapet common stock and one share of
our preferred stock for every share of Ensurapet preferred stock held on the
record date. The spin-off of our shares will be made in book-entry form, and
physical stock certificates will be issued only upon request. The spin-off will
be effective at 11:59 p.m., Canton, Ohio time on June 1, 2009. Ensurapet
believes the spin-off to be tax-free for stockholders; however, we do not have
any ruling from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service nor do we have a favorable
opinion by the Company’s accounting firm confirming the spin-off’s tax-free
status. You should consult your own tax advisor as to the particular
consequences of the spin-off to you.
No stockholder approval of the
spin-off is required or sought. We are not asking you for a proxy and you are
requested not to send us a proxy
. Ensurapet stockholders will not be
required to pay for the shares of our common and preferred stock to be received
by them in the spin-off or to surrender or exchange shares of Ensurapet common
and preferred stock in order to receive our common and preferred stock or to
take any other action in connection with the spin-off.
Currently,
there is no trading market for our common stock. However, we expect that a
limited market, commonly known as a “when-issued” trading market, for our common
stock will develop on or shortly before the record date for the spin-off, and we
expect that “regular way” trading of our common stock will begin the first
trading day after the spin-off.”
In
reviewing this information statement, you should carefully consider the matters
described under “
Risk
Factors
” beginning on page 9 for a discussion of certain factors that
should be considered by recipients of our common stock.
Neither
the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has
approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this information
statement is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a
criminal offense.
This
information statement does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation
of an offer to buy any securities.
The date
of this information statement June 1, 2009.
This
information statement was first mailed to Ensurapet stockholders on or about
June 1, 2009.

Ensurapet stockholders who will receive shares of our common and preferred stock
in the distribution. This information statement is not, and is not to be
construed as, an inducement or encouragement to buy or sell any of our
securities or any securities of Ensurapet. This information statement describes
our business, the relationship between Ensurapet and us, and how the spin-off
affects Ensurapet and its stockholders, and provides other information to assist
you in evaluating the benefits and risks of holding or disposing of our common
and preferred stock that you will receive in the distribution. You should be
aware of certain risks relating to the spin-off, our business and ownership of
our common and preferred stock, which are described under the heading “Risk
Factors.”
You
should not assume that the information contained in this information statement
is accurate as of any date other than the date set forth on the cover. Changes
to the information contained in this information statement may occur after that
date, and we undertake no obligation to update the information, except in the
normal course of our public disclosure obligations and practices.
Unless
the context indicates otherwise, all references in this information
statement:

The
transaction in which we will be separated from Ensurapet and become a
separately-traded public company is referred to in this information statement as
the “separation,” the “distribution” or the “spin-off.”
We
obtained the market and industry data and other statistical information used
throughout this information statement from our own research, surveys or studies
conducted by third parties, independent industry or general publications and
other published independent sources. In particular, we have based much of our
discussion of the pet industry on information published by American Veterinary
Association or provided by Package Facts Reports. None of these publications
were prepared on our behalf. While we believe that each of these sources is
reliable, we have not independently verified such data. Similarly, we believe
our internal research is reliable, but it has not been verified by any
independent sources.
QUESTIONS
AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE SPIN-OFF:
Q:
|
Why
am I receiving this document?
|
A:
|
Ensurapet
is delivering this document to you because you were a holder of Ensurapet
common or preferred stock on the record date for the distribution of our
shares of common and preferred stock. Accordingly, you are entitled to
receive one share of our common stock for every share of Ensurapet common
stock and one share of our preferred stock for every share of Ensurapet
preferred stock that you held on the record date. No action is required
for you to participate in the
distribution.
|
A:
|
The
spin-off is the overall transaction of separating our company from
Ensurapet, which will be accomplished through a series of transactions
resulting in us owning what is currently the pet club business segment of
Ensurapet. The final step of the transaction will be the pro rata
distribution of our common and preferred stock by Purrfect Pet Club to
holders of Ensurapet’s common and preferred stock. We refer to this last
step as the “distribution.” For additional information regarding these
transactions, see “The Spin-Off—Manner of Effecting the Spin-Off”
beginning on page 17.
|
Q:
|
Who
is Purrfect Pet Club, Inc.?
|
A:
|
Up
to the time of the spin-off, we will be a wholly owned subsidiary of
Ensurapet that is currently comprised of Ensurapet’s pet club business
segment. Following the spin-off, we will be a separate publicly-traded
company. We are an online pet club portal community that provides humorous
and fun content including, blogs, podcasts, video, and online shopping to
more than 10,000 pet products.
|
Q:
|
Why
is Ensurapet separating our businesses and distributing our
stock?
|
A:
|
Ensurapet’s
Board of Directors and management believe the separation will provide the
benefits set forth below under the caption “The Spin-Off—Reasons for the
Spin-Off” beginning on page 16, and that achieving those benefits will
result in greater aggregate value to stockholders who retain their
Ensurapet and Purrfect Pet Club, Inc. shares than would be obtained under
the current structure.
|
Q:
|
Why
is the separation of the two companies structured as a
spin-off?
|
A:
|
Ensurapet’s
Board of Directors believes that a tax-free spin-off of our shares is a
cost-effective and tax efficient way to separate the
companies. Please know that while Ensurapet believes the
spin-off to be tax-free for stockholders; we do not have any ruling from
the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and or a favorable opinion by the
Company’s accounting firm confirming the spin-off’s tax-free status. You
should consult your own tax advisor as to the particular consequences of
the spin-off to you.
|
Q:
|
What
is the record date for the
distribution?
|
A:
|
The
record date is June 1, 2009, and ownership will be determined as of 5:00
p.m., Canton, Ohio time, on that date. When we refer to the “record date,”
we are referring to that time and
date.
|
Q:
|
What
will be our relationship with Ensurapet after the
spin-off?
|
A:
|
Ensurapet
and Purrfect Pet Club, Inc. each will be independent, publicly-traded
companies. However, we will enter into agreements with Ensurapet that will
ease our transition from consolidated operating segments to an independent
company following the spin-off. For example, Ensurapet will continue to
provide certain administrative services for an agreed period following the
spin-off. For additional information regarding our relationship with
Ensurapet after the spin-off, see “Our Relationship with Ensurapet After
the Spin-Off” beginning on page 34.
|
Q:
|
When
will the spin-off be completed?
|
A:
|
Shares
of our common and preferred stock will be distributed on or about June 1,
2009. We refer to this date as the “distribution
date.”
|
Q:
|
Can
Ensurapet decide to cancel the distribution of our common and preferred
stock even if all the conditions have been
met?
|
A:
|
Yes.
The distribution is conditioned upon satisfaction or waiver of certain
conditions. See “The Spin-Off—Spin-Off Conditions and Termination”
beginning on page
21. Ensurapet has
the right to terminate the stock distribution, even if all of these
conditions are met, if at any time Ensurapet’s Board of Directors
determines, in its sole discretion that Ensurapet and Purrfect Pet Club,
Inc. are better served being a combined company or that business
conditions are such that it is not advisable to complete the spin-off.
Business conditions that could cause Ensurapet’s Board of Directors to
terminate the spin-off include, among other things, deterioration in
business value caused by either a decline in the outlook for our pet club
business or a decline in the equity market valuation for such
businesses.
|
Q:
|
What
will happen to the listing of Ensurapet common
stock?
|
A:
|
Nothing.
Ensurapet common stock will continue to be traded on the OTC Bulletin
Board under the symbol “EPTI.”
|
Q:
|
Will
the spin-off affect the market price of my Ensurapet
shares?
|
A:
|
Yes.
As a result of the spin-off, we expect the trading price of Ensurapet
shares immediately following the distribution to be lower than immediately
prior to the distribution because the trading price will no longer reflect
the value of our business. In addition, until the market has fully
analyzed the operations of Ensurapet without this business segment, the
price of Ensurapet shares may fluctuate significantly. Furthermore, the
combined trading prices of Ensurapet common stock and our common stock
after the distribution may be higher or lower than the trading price of
Ensurapet common stock prior to the
distribution.
|
Q:
|
What
will Ensurapet stockholders receive in the
spin-off?
|
A:
|
In
the spin-off, Ensurapet stockholders will receive one share of our common
stock for every share of Ensurapet common stock they own and one share of
our preferred stock for every share of Ensurapet preferred stock they own
as of the record date of the spin-off. Immediately after the spin-off,
Ensurapet stockholders will still own all of Ensurapet’s current business
segments, but they will own them as two separate investments rather than
as a single investment.
|
After the
spin-off, the certificates and book-entry interests representing the “old”
Ensurapet common and preferred stock will represent such stockholders’ interests
in the Ensurapet businesses (other than our business) following the spin-off,
and the certificates and book-entry interests representing our common and
preferred stock that stockholders receive in the spin-off will represent their
interest in our business only.
Q:
|
What
does an Ensurapet stockholder need to do
now?
|
A:
|
Ensurapet
stockholders do not need to take any action, although we urge you to read
this entire document carefully. The approval of the Ensurapet stockholders
is not required or sought to effect the spin-off, and Ensurapet
stockholders have no appraisal rights in connection with the spin-off.
Ensurapet is not seeking a proxy from any stockholders, and you are
requested not to send us a proxy.
|
Ensurapet
stockholders will not be required to pay anything for our shares distributed in
the spin-off or to surrender any shares of Ensurapet common or preferred stock.
Ensurapet stockholders should not send in their Ensurapet share certificates.
Ensurapet stockholders will automatically receive their shares of our common and
preferred stock when the spin-off is effected.
Q:
|
Are
there risks associated with owning our common or preferred
stock?
|
A:
|
Yes.
Our business is subject to both general and specific risks relating to our
operations. In addition, our spin-off from Ensurapet presents risks
relating to our becoming a separately-traded public company as well as
risks relating to the nature of the spin-off transaction itself. See “Risk
Factors” beginning on page 9.
|
Q:
|
What
are the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the spin-off to Ensurapet
stockholders?
|
A:
|
While
management believes this is a tax free transaction there has been no
private letter ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), that
Ensurapet stockholders will not recognize a gain or loss on the receipt of
shares of our common or preferred stock in the spin-off. Ensurapet
believes stockholders will apportion their tax basis in Ensurapet common
or preferred stock between such Ensurapet common and preferred stock and
our common and preferred stock received in the spin-off in proportion to
the relative fair market values of such stock at the time of the spin-off.
Further an Ensurapet stockholder’s holding period for our common stock
received in the spin-off will include the period for which that
stockholder’s Ensurapet common or preferred stock was held. See “The
Spin-Off—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Spin-Off”
beginning on page 18. You should consult your own tax advisor as to the
particular consequences of the spin-off to
you.
|
Q:
|
What
if I want to sell my Ensurapet common or preferred stock or my Purrfect
Pet Club, Inc. common or preferred
stock?
|
A:
|
You
should consult with your own financial advisors, such as your stockbroker,
bank or tax advisor. We do not make any recommendations on the purchase,
retention or sale of shares of Ensurapet common stock or our common and
preferred stock to be distributed.
|
If you do
decide to sell any shares, you should make sure your stockbroker, bank or other
nominee understands whether you want to sell your Ensurapet common stock or your
Purrfect Pet Club, Inc. common stock after it is distributed, or both. Preferred
stock not tradable until it has been converted into common shares.
Q:
|
Where
will I be able to trade shares of our common
stock?
|
A:
|
There
is not currently a public market for our common stock.” We anticipate that
trading in shares of our common stock will begin on a “when-issued” basis
on or shortly before the record date and before the distribution date, and
“regular way” trading will begin on the first trading day following the
distribution date. If trading does begin on a “when-issued” basis, you may
purchase or sell our common stock after that time, but your transaction
will not settle until after the distribution date. On the first trading
day following the distribution date, when-issued trading with respect to
our common stock will end and regular way trading will begin. We cannot
predict the trading prices for our common stock before or after the
distribution date.
|
Q:
|
Do
you intend to pay dividends on your common or preferred
stock?
|
Q:
|
Where
can Ensurapet stockholders get more
information?
|
A:
|
Before
the distribution, if you have any questions relating to the distribution,
you should contact:
|
Ensurapet,
Inc.
177
Riverside Ave, Ste. F, #1152, Newport Beach, CA 92663
After the
distribution, if you have any questions relating to our common and preferred
stock, you should contact:
Purrfect
Pet Club, Inc.

Carol Rd, Union, NJ 07083
Q:
|

will be the distribution agent for the
spin-off?
|
A:
|
Madison
Stock Transfer will be the distribution agent for the spin-off. The
distribution agent can be contacted at: P.O. Box 145, Brooklyn, New Jersey
11229.

•
|
|
In
addition, before the separation, our Board of Directors and Ensurapet, as
our sole stockholder, will adopt certain benefit plans and approve various
actions related to the spin-off as described in this information
statement. We will assume Ensurapet’s obligations under its current
defined benefit pension plan applicable to our current employees,
terminated vested and retired
employees.
|
|
•
|
|
The
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) will declare effective
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange
Act”), the registration statement of which this information statement is a
part, and Ensurapet will mail this information statement to its
stockholders.
|
|
•
|
|
Prior
to the distribution date, certain assets related to our business will be
transferred from Ensurapet to us or our relevant subsidiaries via a series
of distributions among various Ensurapet
subsidiaries.
|
|
•
|
|
Following
the separation, we will operate as a separate publicly-traded company, and
we expect that our common stock will begin trading on the Over the Counter
Bulletin Board on a regular way basis following the distribution
date.

further explanation of the spin-off, see “The Spin-Off” beginning on page

RISK
FACTORS
You
should carefully consider the risks described below, together with all of the
other information included in this information statement, in evaluating our
company and our common and preferred stock. If any of the risks described below
actually occurs, our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash
flows and stock price could be materially adversely affected.
Risk
Factors Relating to Our Business
Our
financial results are subject to fluctuations caused by many factors that could
result in our failing to achieve anticipated financial results.
Terrorist
attacks and threats, escalation of military activity in response to such attacks
or acts of war may negatively affect our business, financial condition, results
of operations and cash flows.
Terrorist
attacks and threats, escalation of military activity in response to such attacks
or acts of war may negatively affect our business, financial condition, results
of operations and cash flows. Any future terrorist attacks against
U.S. targets, rumors or threats of war, actual conflicts involving the
United States or its allies, or military or trade disruptions affecting our
customers or the economy as a whole may materially adversely affect our
operations or those of our customers. As a result, there could be delays or
losses in transportation and deliveries to our customers, decreased sales of our
products and extension of time for payment of accounts receivable from our
customers. Strategic targets such as those relating to transportation and food
processing may be at greater risk of future terrorist attacks than other targets
in the United States. It is possible that any of these occurrences, or a
combination of them, could have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Due
to the type of marketing alliances we enter into, the cumulative loss of several
major alliances may negatively affect our business, financial condition, results
of operations and cash flows.
We often
enter into large, pet-oriented marketing alliances for long-term growth of
market share and service agreements. These agreements may be terminated or
breached, or our customers may fail to renew their membership. If we were to
lose several key alliances over a relatively short period of time and if we were
to fail to develop alternative membership benefits or opportunities, we could
experience a materially adverse impact on our business, financial condition,
results of operations and cash flows.
We
may lose money on fixed-price contracts in accord with our marketing
alliances.
As is
customary for several of the business areas in which we operate, we agree, in
some cases, to provide services under fixed-price contracts. Under these
contracts, we are typically responsible for cost overruns. Our actual costs and
any gross profit realized on these fixed-price contracts may vary from the
estimated amounts on which these contracts were originally based. There is
inherent risk in the estimation process, including significant unforeseen
technical and logistical challenges or longer than expected lead times. A
fixed-price contract may prohibit our ability to mitigate the impact of
unanticipated increases in development cost (including the software development)
through increased pricing. Depending on the size of a development project,
variations from estimated contract performance could have a materially adverse
impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash
flows.
If
we are unable to develop, preserve and protect our intellectual property assets,
our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows may be
negatively affected.
As an
online website association based service company, our intellectual property
portfolio is crucial to our continuing ability to be a leading solutions and
services provider to the pet industries. We strive to protect and enhance our
proprietary intellectual property rights through patent, copyright, trademark
and trade secret laws, as well as through technological safeguards. To the
extent we are not successful, our business, financial condition, results of
operations and cash flows could be materially adversely impacted. We may be
unable to prevent third parties from using our technology without
our authorization or independently developing technology that is
similar to ours, particularly in those areas where the laws do not protect our
proprietary rights as fully as in the United States. Even if we make patent
applications, we may not be successful in securing patents for these claims, and
our competitors may already have applied for patents that, once issued, will
prevail over our patent rights or otherwise limit our ability to sell our
products.
While we
take steps to provide for confidentiality obligations of employees and third
parties with whom we do business (including customers, suppliers and strategic
partners), there is a risk that such parties will breach such obligations and
jeopardize our intellectual property rights. Although we have agreements in
place to mitigate this risk, there can be no assurance that such protections
will be sufficient.
We are
actively engaged in efforts to protect the value of our intellectual property
and to prevent others from infringing our intellectual property rights. However,
due to the complex and technical nature of such efforts and the potentially high
stakes involved, such enforcement activity can be expensive and time consuming,
and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in these
efforts.
Claims
by others that we infringe their intellectual property rights could harm our
business, financial condition, results of operations and cash
flows.
We have
seen a trend towards aggressive enforcement of intellectual property rights as
the functionality of products in our industry increasingly overlaps and the
volume of issued patents continues to grow. As a result, there is a risk that we
could be subject to infringement claims which, regardless of their validity,
could:
|
•
|
Be expensive, time consuming and
divert management attention away from normal business
operations;
|
|
•
|
Require us to pay monetary
damages or enter into non-standard royalty and licensing
agreements;
|
|
•
|
Require us to modify our product
sales and development plans;
or
|
|
•
|
Require us to satisfy
indemnification obligations to our
customers.
|
Regardless
of whether these claims have any merit, they can be burdensome to defend or
settle and can harm our business and reputation.
Our
information systems, computer equipment and information databases are critical
to our business operations, and any damage or disruptions could negatively
affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash
flows.
Our
operations are dependent on our ability to protect our computer equipment and
the information stored in our databases from damage by, among other things,
earthquake, fire, natural disaster, power loss, telecommunications failures,
unauthorized intrusions and other catastrophic events. A part of our operations
is based in an area of Ohio that has experienced power outages and snowfalls,
while another part of our operations is based in an area of Florida that has
experienced power outages and hurricanes. Despite our best efforts at planning
for such contingencies, catastrophic events of this nature may still result in
system failures and other interruptions in our operations, which could have a
material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of
operations and cash flows.
In
addition, it is periodically necessary to replace, upgrade or modify our
internal information systems. If we are unable to do this in a timely and
cost-effective manner, especially in light of demands on our information
technology resources, our ability to capture and process financial transactions
and therefore our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash
flows may be materially adversely impacted.
Inadequate
internal controls and accounting practices could lead to errors, which could
negatively impact our business, financial condition, results of operations and
cash flows.
We will
have internal controls and management oversight systems in place, however, we
may not be able to prevent or detect misstatements in our reported
financial statements due to system errors, the potential for human error and
unauthorized actions of employees or contractors, inadequacy of controls,
temporary lapses in controls due to shortfalls in transition planning and
oversight resource contracts and other factors. In addition, due to their
inherent limitations, such controls may not prevent or detect misstatements in
our reported financial results as required under SEC and OTC Bulletin Board
rules, which could increase our operating costs or impair our ability to operate
our business. Controls may also become inadequate due to changes in
circumstances, and it is necessary to replace, upgrade or modify our internal
information systems from time to time. If we are unable to implement these
changes in a timely and cost-effective manner, our ability to capture and
process financial transactions and support our customers as required may be
materially adversely impacted and could harm our business, financial condition,
results of operations and cash flows.
In
addition, despite transition planning and management oversight, our transition
from operating as businesses of Ensurapet to operating as a standalone company
can create certain risks of operational inefficiencies and delays.
We
may supplement our internal growth through strategic combinations, and our
success depends on our ability to successfully integrate, operate and manage
these acquired businesses and assets.
We may
supplement our internal growth through strategic combinations, asset purchases
and other transactions that complement or expand our existing businesses. Each
of these transactions involves a number of risks, including:
|
•
|
The diversion of our management’s
attention from our existing businesses to integrating the operations and
personnel of the acquired or combined
business;
|
|
•
|
Possible material adverse effects
on business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows
during the integration process;
and
|
|
•
|
Our possible inability to achieve
the intended objectives of the
transaction.
|
We may
hire additional employees in connection with these acquisitions. We may not be
able to successfully integrate all of the newly hired employees, or profitably
integrate, operate, maintain and manage our newly acquired operations in a
competitive environment. We may not be able to maintain uniform standards,
controls, procedures and policies, and this may lead to operational
inefficiencies.
We may
seek to finance an acquisition through borrowings or through the issuance of new
debt or equity securities. If we make a relatively large acquisition, we could
deplete a substantial portion of our financial resources to the possible
detriment of our other operations. Any future acquisitions could also dilute the
equity interests of our stockholders, require us to write off assets for
accounting purposes or create other undesirable accounting results, such as
significant expenses for amortization or impairment of goodwill or other
intangible assets.
Loss
of our key management and other personnel could impact our
business.
We depend
on our senior executive officers and other key personnel. The loss of any of
these officers or key personnel could materially adversely affect our business,
financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. In addition,
competition for skilled and non-skilled employees among companies that rely
heavily on internet based marketing, servicing and association business is
intense, and the loss of skilled or non-skilled employees or an inability to
attract, retain and motivate additional skilled and non-skilled employees
required for the operation and expansion of our business could hinder our
ability to conduct research activities successfully, develop new products and
services and meet customers’ shipments.
Risk
Factors Relating to the Spin-Off
We
may be unable to achieve some or all of the benefits that we expect to achieve
from our separation from Ensurapet.
As a
stand-alone, independent public company, we believe that our business will
benefit from, among other things, allowing our management to design and
implement corporate policies and strategies that are based primarily on the
characteristics of our business, to focus our financial resources wholly on our
own operations and to implement and maintain a capital structure designed to
meet our own specific needs. However, we may not be able to achieve some or all
of the benefits expected as a result of the spin-off.
Additionally,
by separating from Ensurapet, there is a risk that our company may be more
susceptible to stock market fluctuations and other adverse events than we would
have been were we still a part of the current Ensurapet due to a reduction in
market diversification. Prior to the spin-off, we have been able to take
advantage of Ensurapet’s pet health insurance product line to attract members.
As a separate, stand-alone entity, we may be unable to obtain access to
financial and other resources on terms as favorable as those available to us
prior to the separation. Furthermore, as a stand-alone company, we will not be
able to enjoy certain benefits from Ensurapet’s operating diversity, borrowing
leverage and available capital for investments.
If
the distribution, together with certain related transactions, were to fail to
qualify as a reorganization for U.S. federal income tax purposes under Sections
368(a)(1)(D) and 355 of the Code, then our stockholders, we and/or Ensurapet
might be subject to significant tax liability.
Ensurapet
has no private letter ruling from the IRS to the effect that the distribution,
together with certain related transactions, will qualify for tax-free status
under Sections 355 and 368(a)(1)(D) of the Code. Further, Ensurapet has no
opinion from its accounting firm to the effect that the distribution, together
with certain related transactions, will so qualify. It is only management’s
opinion that the distribution, together with certain related transactions, will
qualify for tax-free status under Sections 355 and 368(a)(1)(D) of the Code.
Therefore, notwithstanding even if Ensurapet were to obtain an IRS private
letter ruling and opinion from its accounting firm, the IRS could later
determine that the distribution should be treated as a taxable transaction if it
determines on audit that any of the representations, assumptions or undertakings
that were included in the request for the private letter ruling are false or
have been violated. For more information regarding the tax opinion and the
private letter ruling, see the section entitled “The Spin-Off—Material U.S.
Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Spin-Off” beginning on page
18.
If the
distribution fails to qualify for tax-free status, Ensurapet would be treated as
if it had sold the common and preferred stock of our company for its fair market
value, resulting in a taxable gain to the extent of the excess of such fair
market value over its tax basis in the stock. In general, our initial public
stockholders would be treated as if they had received a taxable distribution
equal to the fair market value of our common stock that was distributed to them.
Under the tax sharing agreement between Ensurapet and us, we would generally be
required to indemnify Ensurapet against any tax owed by Ensurapet resulting from
the distribution to the extent that such tax resulted from (i) an
acquisition of all or a portion of our stock or assets, whether by merger or
otherwise, (ii) other actions or failures to act by us or (iii) any of
our representations or undertakings being incorrect or violated. For a more
detailed discussion, see the section entitled “Our Relationship with Example
after the Spin-Off—Tax Sharing Agreement” beginning on page 116. Our
indemnification obligations to Ensurapet and its subsidiaries, officers and
directors are not limited by any maximum amount. If we are required to indemnify
Ensurapet or such other persons under the circumstances set forth in the Tax
Sharing Agreement, we may be subject to substantial liabilities.
We
could have adverse tax consequences resulting from certain change-in-control
transactions and therefore could be prevented from engaging in strategic or
capital raising transactions.

could recognize a taxable gain if the spin-off is determined to be part of a
plan or series of related transactions pursuant to which one or more persons
acquire, directly or indirectly, stock representing a 50% or greater interest in
either Ensurapet or Purrfect Pet Under the Code, any acquisitions of Ensurapet
or Purrfect Pet within the four-year period beginning two years before the date
of the spin-off are presumed to be part of such a plan. Regulations issued by
the IRS, however, provide mitigating rules in many circumstances. Nonetheless, a
merger, recapitalization or acquisition, or issuance or redemption of our common
stock after the spin-off could, in some circumstances, is counted toward the 50%
change of ownership threshold.
Our
operations depend on the availability of additional financing and, after the
spin-off; we will not be able to obtain financing from Ensurapet. We will have
access to funds from an outside credit facility.
Following
the spin-off, we will not have sufficient liquidity to support the development
of our business. Purrfect Pet is going to require additional financing for
liquidity, capital requirements and growth initiatives. After the spin-off,
Ensurapet will not provide funds to us. Accordingly, we will depend on our
ability to generate cash flows from operations and to borrow funds and issue
securities in the capital markets to maintain and expand our business. We may
need to incur debt on terms and at interest rates that may not be as favorable
as those historically enjoyed by Ensurapet. In addition, future events may
prevent us from borrowing funds under any revolving credit facility. Any
inability by us to obtain financing in the future on favorable terms could have
a negative effect on our results of operations, cash flows and financial
condition.
Our
ability to operate our businesses may suffer if we do not, quickly and
cost-effectively, establish our own financial, administrative and other support
functions to successfully operate as a stand-alone entity, and we cannot assure
you that the transitional services Ensurapet has agreed to provide us will be
sufficient for our needs.
Historically,
our businesses have relied on financial, administrative and other resources of
Ensurapet. After this spin-off, we will need to create our own financial,
administrative and other support systems or contract with a third party to
replace Ensurapet’s resources. We have entered into an agreement with Ensurapet
under which Ensurapet will provide transitional services to us, including
services related to information technology systems, treasury, and legal,
financial and accounting services. Although Ensurapet will be contractually
obligated to provide us with these services after the distribution, these
services may not be sufficient to meet our needs, and we may not be able to
replace these services at all or obtain these services at prices and on terms as
favorable as we currently have them, after our agreement with Ensurapet expires.
Any failure or significant downtime in our own financial or administrative
systems or in Ensurapet’s financial or administrative systems during the
transitional period could prevent us from paying our employees, billing our
customers or performing other administrative services on a timely basis and
could materially harm our business or operations.
Our
historical financial information may not be indicative of our future results as
an independent company.
The
historical financial information we have included in this information statement
may not reflect what our results of operations, financial position and cash
flows would have been had we been an independent company during the periods
presented or be indicative of what our results of operations, financial position
and cash flows may be in the future when we are an independent company. Results
could have been dramatically different and these statements may not be a
reliable indicator of what our results of operations, cash flows and financial
condition actually may be in the future.

Risk
Factors Relating to Our Common Stock
There
may not be an active trading market for shares of our common stock.
Prior to
the spin-off, there has been no public trading market for shares of our common
stock. We cannot predict the extent to which investor interest in our company
will lead to the development of an active trading market in our common stock or
how liquid such a market might become. It is possible that, after the spin-off,
an active trading market will not develop or continue, and there can be no
assurance as to the price at which our common stock will trade. The initial
share price of our common stock may not be indicative of prices that will
prevail in any future trading market.
In
addition, because of the significant changes that will take place as a result of
the spin-off, the trading market for both our common stock and Ensurapet’s
common stock after the spin-off may be significantly different from that for
Ensurapet’s common stock prior to the spin-off. The market may view us as a
“new” company after the spin-off, and it is possible that we will not be the
subject of significant research analyst coverage. The absence of significant
research analyst coverage of our company can adversely affect the market value
and liquidity of an equity security.
We
cannot predict the price range or volatility of our common stock after the
spin-off, and sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock may
adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
From time
to time, the market price and volume of shares traded of companies in the
industries in which we operate experience periods of significant volatility.
Company-specific issues and developments generally affecting our industries or
the economy may cause this volatility. The market price of our common stock may
fluctuate in response to a number of events and factors, including:
|
•
|
General economic, market and
political conditions;
|
|
•
|
Quarterly variations in results
of operations or results of operations that could be below the
expectations of the public market analysts and
investors;
|
|
•
|
Changes in financial estimates
and recommendations by securities
analysts;
|
|
•
|
Operating and market price
performance of other companies that investors may deem
comparable;
|
|
•
|
Press releases or publicity
relating to us or our competitors or relating to trends in our markets;
and
|
|
•
|
Sales of common stock or other
securities by insiders.
|
In
addition, broad market and industry fluctuations, as well as investor perception
and the depth and liquidity of the market for our common stock may adversely
affect the trading price of our common stock, regardless of actual operating
performance.
Sales or
distributions of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the
public market or otherwise following the spin-off, or the perception that such
sales could occur could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
After the spin-off, all of the shares of our common stock, other than the shares
held by executive officers and directors, will be eligible for immediate resale
in the public market. Investment criteria of certain investment funds and other
holders of our common stock may result in the immediate sale of our common stock
after the spin-off to the extent such stock no longer meets these criteria.
Substantial selling of our common stock, whether as a result of the spin-off or
otherwise, could adversely affect the market price of our common
stock.
We cannot
assure you as to the price at which our common stock will trade after the
distribution date. Until our common stock is fully distributed and an orderly
market develops in our common stock, the price at which our common stock trades
may fluctuate significantly and may be lower or higher than the price that would
be expected for a fully distributed issue.
The
payment of dividends will be at the discretion of our Board of
Directors.
The
declaration and amount of future dividends, if any, will be determined by our
Board of Directors and will depend on our financial condition, earnings, capital
requirements, financial covenants, regulatory constraints, industry practice and
other factors our Board deems relevant. See “Dividend Policy” on page 21 for
additional information on our dividend policy following the
spin-off.

THE
SPIN-OFF
After a
thorough strategic review of Ensurapet’s operations and financial position,
Ensurapet determined that separating the Purrfect Pet Club businesses from its
other operations would allow them to be in a better position to thrive under its
own management focus and long-term growth plans and allow the separate entities
to create more long-term value individually than through the combined
entity.
The
transaction is intended to be in the form of a tax-free dividend to Ensurapet’s
stockholders; however, the Company does not have any ruling from the U.S.
Internal Revenue Service and or a favorable opinion by the Company’s accounting
firm confirming the spin-off’s tax-free status. Therefore, you should consult
your own tax advisor as to the particular consequences of the spin-off to you.
Ensurapet’s Board of Directors will establish record and payment dates for the
spin-off shortly before the completion of the distribution.
Reasons
for the Spin-Off
Ensurapet’s
Board of Directors believes that the spin-off will separate businesses with
fundamentally different characteristics that require management to pursue
distinctly different operating and business strategies. The separation is
intended to benefit stockholders by allowing us to maximize the performance of
our businesses assets through undivided senior management focus on and capital
allocation to these businesses.
The Board
of Directors of Ensurapet considered the following potential benefits in making
the determination to effect the spin-off.
|
•
|
Allow management of each
separated company to design and implement corporate strategies and
policies that are based primarily on the business characteristics of that
company, maintain a sharper focus on core business and growth
opportunities, and concentrate their financial resources wholly on their
own operations.
|
|
•
|
Increase focus on core business
priorities to drive shareholder value. Ensurapet and Purrfect Pet will be
better able to focus their attention and financial resources on their own
distinct businesses, opportunities, markets and challenges so that each
can pursue the most appropriate long-term growth opportunities and
business strategies. Ensurapet’s management believes that a separate focus
on these items will allow each company to unlock value not currently being
realized.
|
|
•
|
Allow each separated company to
recruit and retain employees pursuant to compensation policies which are
appropriate for their respective lines of business. As a separate,
publicly-traded company with our own executive management team, we may be
able to attract greater media attention and press coverage, which could
strengthen our ability to promote the Purrfect Pet Club
brand.
|
|
•
|
Reduce
internal competition for capital. Historically, our access to resources
has been limited as Ensurapet’s strategy was to build its pet health
insurance businesses. We will now be able to invest any excess cash flow
into the growth initiatives of our businesses, rather than having all or a
part of our cash flow reinvested into Ensurapet’s pet health insurance
businesses. In addition, we will have direct access to the public capital
markets to allow us to seek to finance our operations and growth without
having to compete with Ensurapet’s pet health insurance businesses with
respect to financing and debt servicing. As an independent
entity, we will be in a position to pursue strategies our Board of
Directors and management believe will create long-term stockholder value,
including organic and acquisition growth opportunities provided we
continue to have access to
capital.
|
|
•
|
Provide both companies heightened
strategic flexibility to form strategic business alliances in their target
markets, unencumbered by considerations of the potential impact on the
other business.
|
|
•
|
Create common equity shares for
Purrfect Pet including options and restricted share units, providing the
appropriate incentive mechanisms to motivate and reward our management
and employees. The common shares of the independent,
publicly-traded Purrfect Pet will have a value that reflects the efforts
and performance of our management and employees. As a result, we will be
able to develop better incentive programs to attract and retain key
employees through the use of stock-based and performance-based incentive
plans that more directly link their compensation with our financial
performance. These programs will be designed to more directly reward
employees based on our
performance.
|
|
•
|
Allow us to effect future
acquisitions utilizing our common stock for all or part of the
consideration and to issue a security more directly tied to the
performance of our business.
|
|
•
|
Increase transparency and clarity
into the different businesses of Ensurapet and Purrfect Pet. The
investment community, including the respective analysts, stockholders and
investors of Ensurapet and Purrfect Pet will be better able to evaluate
the merits and future prospects of each company. This will enhance the
likelihood that each company will receive appropriate market recognition
of its individual performance and
potential.
|
Neither
we nor Ensurapet can assure you that, following the spin-off, any of these
benefits will be realized to the extent anticipated or at all. For a description
of the factors that might impact our ability to achieve these benefits, see
“Risk Factors.”
Ensurapet’s
Board of Directors also considered a number of other factors in evaluating the
spin-off, including:
|
•
|
The one-time and on-going costs
of the spin-off;
|
|
•
|
The possibility that disruptions
in normal business may result;
and
|
|
•
|
The risk that the combined
trading prices of our common stock and Ensurapet common stock after the
distribution may be lower than the trading price of Ensurapet common stock
before the distribution.
|
Ensurapet’s
Board of Directors concluded, however, that the potential long-term benefits of
the spin-off outweigh these factors, and that separating us from Ensurapet in
the form of what management believes is a tax-free distribution is appropriate
and advisable.
Manner
of Effecting the Spin-Off
The
general terms and conditions relating to the spin-off will be set forth in the
Separation Agreement between us and Ensurapet. The spin-off will be effective at
11:59 p.m., Canton, Ohio time on the distribution date, which is June 1, 2009.
As a result of the spin-off, each Ensurapet preferred and common stockholder
will receive one share of our common stock for every share of Ensurapet common
stock they own and one share of our preferred stock for every share of Ensurapet
preferred stock they own. In order to be entitled to receive shares of our
common and preferred stock in the spin-off, Ensurapet stockholders must be
stockholders at 5:00 p.m., Canton, Ohio time, on the record date, June 1, 2009.
The spin-off of our shares will be made in book-entry form, and physical stock
certificates will be issued only upon request. Each share of our common and
preferred stock that is
distributed
will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free of preemptive
rights. See “Description of Our Capital Stock” beginning on page
37.
Ensurapet
stockholders will not be required to pay for shares of our common or preferred
stock received in the spin-off or to surrender or exchange shares of Ensurapet
common or preferred stock in order to receive our common and preferred stock or
to take any other action in connection with the spin-off. No vote of Ensurapet
stockholders is required or sought in connection with the spin-off, and
Ensurapet stockholders have no appraisal rights in connection with the
spin-off.
IN
ORDER TO BE ENTITLED TO RECEIVE SHARES OF OUR COMMON AND PREFERRED STOCK IN THE
SPIN-OFF, YOU MUST BE A HOLDER OF ENSURAPET COMMON AND PREFERRED STOCK AT 5:00
P.M., CANTON, OHIO TIME, ON THE RECORD DATE.
Results
of the Spin-Off
After the
spin-off, we will be a separately traded, public company. Immediately following
the spin-off, we expect to have approximately 880 beneficial holders and
approximately 880 record holders of shares of our common and preferred stock
based on the number of beneficial and record holders, respectively, of shares of
Ensurapet common and preferred stock on December 31, 2008. The actual number of
shares to be distributed will be determined on the record date and will reflect
any exercise of Ensurapet options between the date the Board of Directors of
Ensurapet declares the dividend for the spin-off and the record date for the
spin-off.
Ensurapet
and Purrfect Pet will be parties to a number of agreements that govern the
spin-off and the future relationship between the two companies. For a more
detailed description of these agreements, please see “Our Relationship with
Ensurapet After the Spin-Off” beginning on page 34.
Material
U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Spin-Off
The
following is a summary of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences to
Ensurapet, the holders of Ensurapet common and preferred stock, us and the
holders of our common and preferred stock after the spin-off as of the date
hereof. This summary does not discuss all tax considerations that may be
relevant to stockholders in light of their particular circumstances, nor does it
address the consequences to stockholders subject to special rules under the U.S.
federal income tax laws, such as stockholders subject to the alternative minimum
tax, tax-exempt entities, non-resident alien individuals, foreign entities,
foreign trusts and estates and beneficiaries thereof, stockholders who acquire
shares as compensation for services (including holders of Ensurapet restricted
stock who did not make a Section 83(b) election), banks, insurance
companies, other financial institutions, traders in securities that use
mark-to-market accounting, and dealers in securities or commodities. In
addition, this summary does not address any state, local or foreign tax
consequences. This summary is based upon provisions of the Code, and
regulations, rulings and judicial decisions, as of the date hereof. Those
authorities may be changed, perhaps retroactively, so as to result in U.S.
federal income tax consequences different from those summarized
below.
If a
partnership holds Ensurapet or our common and preferred stock, the tax rule of a
partner will generally depend upon the status of the partner and the activities
of the partnership. If you are a partner of a partnership holding Ensurapet or
our common stock, you should consult your tax advisors.
All
stockholders should consult their own tax advisors concerning the specific tax
consequences of the spin-off of our common and preferred stock to holders of
Ensurapet common and preferred stock in light of their particular circumstances.
This summary is not intended to be, nor should it be construed to be, legal or
tax advice to any particular investor.
Ensurapet
has no ruling of any kind whatsoever from the IRS to the effect that the
spin-off will qualify as a tax-free transaction under Section 355 of the
Code and a tax-free reorganization under Section 368(a)(1)(D) of the Code.
Even if a letter were to be obtained and while letter rulings are generally
binding on the IRS, the continuing validity of a ruling is subject to factual
representations and assumptions contained in the letter. Further, as part of the
IRS’s general ruling policy with respect to distributions under
Section 355
of the Code, the private letter ruling is based upon representations of
Ensurapet (rather than a determination by the IRS) that certain conditions that
are necessary to qualify for tax-free status under Section 355 of the Code
have been satisfied. Any inaccuracy in these representations could invalidate
the ruling.
On the
basis of the Company’s position and opinion only and assuming that Ensurapet
common stock is a capital asset in the hands of a Ensurapet stockholder on the
distribution date:
|
•
|
holders of Ensurapet common stock
will not recognize any income, gain or loss as a result of the receipt of
shares of our common and preferred stock in the
spin-off;
|
|
•
|
holders of Ensurapet common and
preferred stock will apportion the tax basis of their Ensurapet common and
preferred stock between such Ensurapet common and preferred stock and our
common and preferred stock received in the spin-off in proportion to the
relative fair market values of such stock at the time of the
spin-off;
|
|
•
|
the holding period for our common
and preferred stock received in the spin-off by holders of Ensurapet
common and preferred stock will include the period during which such
holders held the Ensurapet common and preferred stock with respect to
which the spin-off was made;
and
|
|
•
|
neither we nor Ensurapet will
recognize gain or loss as a result of the
spin-off.
|
Current
federal tax regulations also generally provide that if an Ensurapet stockholder
holds different blocks of Ensurapet common or preferred stock (generally shares
of Ensurapet common and preferred stock purchased on different dates or at
different prices), the aggregate basis for each block of Ensurapet common or
preferred stock purchased or acquired on the same date and at the same price
will be allocated, to the greatest extent possible, between the shares of our
common and preferred stock (including any fractional share) received in the spin
off in respect of such block of Ensurapet common and preferred stock and such
block of Ensurapet common and preferred stock, in proportion to their respective
fair market values, and the holding period of the shares of our common and
preferred stock (including any fractional share) received in the spin off in
respect of such block of Ensurapet common and preferred stock will include the
holding period of such block of Ensurapet common and preferred stock, provided
that such block of Ensurapet common and preferred stock was held as a capital
asset on the distribution date. If an Ensurapet stockholder is not able to
identify which particular shares of our common or preferred stock (including any
fractional share) are received in the spin off with respect to a particular
block of Ensurapet common and preferred stock, for purposes of applying the
rules described above, the stockholder may designate which shares of our common
or preferred stock (including any fractional share) are received in the spin off
in respect of a particular block of Ensurapet common and preferred stock,
provided that the number of shares so designated is consistent with the ratio of
the total number of shares of our common and preferred stock distributed to the
Ensurapet stockholder in the spin-off to the total number of shares of Ensurapet
common and preferred stock on which the Ensurapet stockholder received that
distribution.
If you
receive cash in lieu of a fractional share of our common or preferred stock, you
will be treated as though you first received a distribution of the fractional
share in the spin-off and then sold it for the amount of such cash. You will
generally recognize capital gain or loss, provided that the fractional share is
considered to be held as a capital asset, measured by the difference between the
cash you receive for such fractional share and your tax basis in that fractional
share, as determined above. Such capital gain or loss will be long-term capital
gain or loss if your holding period (as determined above) for such fractional
share is more than one year on the distribution date.
If the
distribution were not to qualify as a tax-free spin-off, each Ensurapet
stockholder receiving shares of our common and preferred stock in the spin-off
would be treated as if such stockholder had received a distribution in an amount
equal to the fair market value of our common stock received, which would result
in (1) a taxable dividend to the extent of such stockholder’s pro rata
share of Ensurapet’ current and accumulated earnings and profits, (2) a
reduction in such stockholder’s basis in Ensurapet common or preferred stock to
the extent the amount received exceeds such stockholder’s share of
earnings and profits and (3) a taxable gain to the extent the
amount received exceeds the sum of the amount treated as a dividend and the
stockholder’s basis in the Ensurapet common or preferred stock. Any such gain
would generally be a capital gain if the Ensurapet common and preferred stock is
held as a capital asset on the distribution date. In addition, Ensurapet would
recognize a taxable gain to the extent the fair market value of our common stock
exceeded its tax basis in such common stock.
Even if
the spin-off otherwise qualifies for tax-free status under Section 355 of
the Code, Ensurapet could recognize taxable gain if the spin-off is determined
to be part of a plan or series of related transactions pursuant to which one or
more persons acquire, directly or indirectly, stock representing a 50% or
greater interest in either Ensurapet or Purrfect Pet. Under the Code, any
acquisitions of Ensurapet or Purrfect Pet within the four-year period beginning
two years before the date of the spin-off are presumed to be part of such a
plan. Regulations issued by the IRS, however, provide mitigating rules in many
circumstances. Nonetheless, a merger, recapitalization or acquisition, or
issuance or redemption of our common stock after the spin-off could, in some
circumstances, is counted toward the 50% change of ownership threshold. See “Our
Relationship with Ensurapet After the Spin-Off—Tax Sharing Agreement” beginning
on page 34.
There are
other restrictions imposed on us under current U.S. federal tax law for
spin-offs with which we will need to comply in order to preserve the favorable
tax rule of the distribution, such as continuing to own and manage our pet club
businesses and limitations on sale or redemptions of our common stock or other
property following the distribution.
If you
are a “significant distributee” with respect to the spin-off, you are required
to attach a statement to your federal income tax return for the year in which
the spin-off occurs setting forth our name and IRS employer identification
number, Ensurapet’s name and IRS employer identification number, the date of the
spin-off, and the fair market value of the shares of our common and preferred
stock that you receive in the spin-off. Upon request, Ensurapet will provide the
information necessary to comply with this reporting requirement to each
stockholder of record as of 5:00 p.m., Canton, Ohio time, on the record date.
You are a “significant distributee” with respect to the spin-off if you own at
least 5% of the outstanding shares of Ensurapet common stock immediately before
the spin-off. You should consult your own tax advisor concerning the application
of this reporting requirement in light of your particular
circumstances.
Listing
and Trading of Our Common Stock
There is
currently no public market for our common stock. We anticipate that trading of
our common stock will commence on a when-issued basis on or shortly before the
record date. When-issued trading refers to a sale or purchase made conditionally
because the security has been authorized but not yet issued. On the first
trading day following the distribution date, when-issued trading with respect to
our common stock will end and regular way trading will begin. Regular way
trading refers to trading after a security has been issued and typically
involves a transaction that settles on the third full business day following the
date of the transaction.
We cannot
predict what the trading prices for our common stock will be before or after the
distribution date. We also cannot predict any change that may occur in the
trading price of Ensurapet common stock as a result of the spin-off. Until our
common stock is fully distributed and an orderly market develops in our common
stock, the price at which it trades may fluctuate significantly and may be lower
or higher than the price that would be expected for a fully distributed issue.
See “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Our Common Stock.”
The
shares of our common stock distributed to Ensurapet stockholders will be freely
transferable except for shares received by persons who may be deemed to be our
“affiliates” under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Persons that may be
considered affiliates of us after the spin-off generally include individuals or
entities that control, are controlled by or are under common control with us.
This may include some or all of our officers and directors as well as our
principal stockholders. Persons that are our affiliates will be permitted to
sell their shares only pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or an exemption from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act, such as the exemptions afforded by
Section 4(1) of the Securities Act or Rule 144 there
under.
Spin-off
Conditions and Termination
We expect
that the spin-off will be effective on the distribution date, June 1, 2009,
provided that, among other things:
|
•
|
the SEC has declared effective
our registration statement on Form 10, of which this information statement
is a part, under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and no
stop order relating to the registration statement is in effect;
and
|
|
•
|
no action, proceeding or
investigation shall have been instituted or threatened before any court or
administrative body to restrain, enjoin or otherwise prevent the
consummation of the spin-off, and no restraining order or injunction
issued by any court of competent jurisdiction shall be in effect
restraining the consummation of the
spin-off.
|
The
fulfillment of the foregoing conditions will not create any obligation on
Ensurapet’s part to effect the spin-off, and the Board of Directors of Ensurapet
has reserved the right to amend, modify or abandon the spin-off and the related
transactions at any time prior to the distribution date. The Board of Directors
of Ensurapet may also waive any of these conditions.
In
addition, Ensurapet has the right not to complete the spin-off and related
transactions if, at any time, Ensurapet’ Board of Directors determines, in its
sole discretion, that the distribution is not in the best interests of Ensurapet
and its stockholders or that business conditions are such that it is not
advisable to spin-off our business.
Reason
for Furnishing this Information Statement
This
information statement is being furnished solely to provide information to
Ensurapet stockholders who will receive shares of our common and preferred stock
in the spin-off. It is not and is not to be construed as an inducement or
encouragement to buy or sell any securities. We believe that the information
contained in this information statement is accurate as of the date set forth on
the cover. Changes may occur after that date and neither Ensurapet nor Purrfect
Pet undertakes any obligation to update the information except in the normal
course of our respective public disclosure obligations.
DIVIDEND
POLICY
The
declaration and amount of future dividends, if any, will be determined by our
Board of Directors and will depend on our financial condition, earnings, capital
requirements, financial covenants, regulatory constraints, industry practice and
other factors our Board deems relevant. Because Ensurapet does not currently pay
a dividend and because we and Ensurapet will be separate entities after the
spin-off, our decision to pay (or not pay) dividends in the future will not
impact Ensurapet’ decision of whether to pay (or not pay) dividends in the
future.
CAPITALIZATION
The
following table sets forth our capitalization (i) on an actual basis as of
December 31, 2008 and (ii) on historical basis as of December 31, 2008 as
adjusted to give effect to the separation and distribution as if they had
occurred on December 31, 2008.
You
should read this table in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and the combined financial
statements and related notes that are included elsewhere in this information
statement.

NOTES
TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December
31, 2008, December 31, 2007, and December 31, 2006
NOTE
1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Development Stage
Company
Purrfect
Pet Club, Inc. (the Company) is a wholly owned Subsidiary, Ensurapet, Inc. and
it is a development stage company as defined under Statements of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 7. Purrfect Pet Club, Inc. was incorporated on
January 17, 2006, in the State of Michigan. Purrfect Pet Club intends to provide
a living with pets’ online portal that provides humorous and fun content
including online shopping as an affiliate retailer. The Company was dormant
through 2006 and 2007 with minimal activity until 2008 when it expanded
operations though remaining a development stage company.
Revenue
Recognition
Purrfect
Pet Club uses an accrual basis accounting.
Cash and Cash
Equivalents
For
purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all short-term
debt securities purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash
equivalents.
Income
Taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of Statements of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 “Accounting for Income Taxes”, which
requires a company to recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the
expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in a
company’s financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax
assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the
financial statement carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities
using enacted tax rates. The Company has no differences between book and tax
accounting.
Property and
Equipment
Property
and equipment are carried at cost. Maintenance, repairs and renewals are
expensed as incurred. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided for
over their estimated useful life.
|
Estimated

|
|
|
Used
Office Equipment
|
2
Years
|
|
|
|
3
Years
|
The
preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures.
Accordingly, actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Concentration of Credit
Risks
During
2006, 2007, and 2008, the Company had no deposits in banks therefore it was
within the FDIC insurance limit.
NOTE
2 – OTHER NONCURRENT ASSETS
The Company utilizes the
software developed and owned by its parent company
Ensurapet.
Trademarks
represent the third party costs in connection with the filing of trademark
applications and related research. The Company evaluates, at least annually, for
potential impairment, this recorded amount, by means of a cash flow analysis in
accordance with SFAS 142.
NOTE
2 – EQUITY
The
Company has adopted the provisions of SFAS 128 in the computation of earnings
whereby the convertible Preferred Stock was deemed converted to common stock on
date of issue.
The
Company has 1,000 shares of common stock authorized with 100 shares outstanding
at December 31, 2008, December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006
respectively.
NOTE
3 – OPERATING SEGMENTS
The
Company is but one segment of the parent company Ensurapet’s three reportable
segments: the parent company (Ensurapet, Inc.), the insurance agency (Vsurance
Insurance Agency, Inc.) and the pet club (Purrfect Pet Club); however, all
assets and expenditures had been reported through the parent company (Ensurapet)
since the company was a development stage.
NOTE
10 – GOING CONCERN
The
Company has generated only minimal revenues and no profits to
date. This factor among others including the ability of the Company
to raise operating capital raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability
to continue as a going concern. Management feels the Company’s
continuation as a going concern depends upon its ability to obtain additional
sources of capital and financing. Management feels it can raise the
necessary working capital in 2009 to provide the necessary working
capital. The accompanying financial statements do not include any
adjustments that may result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.
MANAGEMENT’S
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Cautionary
Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Our
representatives may from time to time make written or oral statements that are
“forward-looking” and provide information that is not historical in nature,
including statements that are or will be contained in this report, the notes to
our combined financial statements, our other filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, our press releases and conference call presentations and
our other communications to our stockholders. These statements involve known and
unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may be outside of our
control and may cause actual results to differ materially from any results,
levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by any
forward-looking statement. These factors include, among other things, those
described under “Risk Factors” beginning on page 9 of this information
statement.
In some
cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by such words or phrases as
“will likely result,” “is confident that,” “expects,” “should,” “could,” “may,”
“will continue to,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “predicts,” “forecasts,”
“estimates,” “projects,” “potential,” “intends” or similar expressions that
relate to prospective events or developments, including the negative of those
words and phrases. Such forward-looking statements are based on our current
views and assumptions regarding future events, future business conditions and
our outlook based on currently available information. We wish to caution you not
to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only
as of the date made and involve judgments.
Executive
Overview
We
currently operate as the three business segments of Ensurapet, and Ensurapet has
determined to spin-off one of our segments by forming Purrfect Pet Club, Inc.,
and distributing all of our common and preferred stock as a dividend to the
Ensurapet’ shareholders. In connection with the spin-off, we will enter into the
Separation Agreement with Ensurapet, which will set forth the key provisions
relating to the separation of our businesses and identification of the assets
transferred, liabilities assumed and contracts to be assigned to us. Our assets
and operations consist of the operations that are reported as Ensurapet’s
Purrfect Pet Club business segment in its financial statements and SEC
reports.

2007
Compared with 2006
We saw
the emergence of the pet club membership base as Ensurapet commence with its pet
health insurance policy sales. As part of an intercompany servicing agreement
all club fee revenues were paid to the insurance agency to finance its growth
and expansion since the sale of pet health insurance policies was the primary
directive of Ensurapet.
2008
Compared with 2007
With
every new pet health policy issued the club membership revenues grew by 348%
from 2007 until 2008. Again as part of an intercompany servicing agreement all
club fee revenues were paid to the insurance agency to finance its growth and
expansion since the sale of pet health insurance policies was the primary
directive of Ensurapet.
Outlook
for 2009
We expect
segment operating earnings in 2009 will surpass the record high results earned
in 2008. This is in part based on ever growing pet market and the growing demand
for online learning, humorous, and club associations on the worldwide web.
Overall growth in annual operating earnings of approximately 6-10% is
anticipated, notwithstanding challenging economic conditions associated with
effects of continued home foreclosures and uncertainty in worldwide credit
markets.
Overall
however, corporate expense items are expected to increase as a result of the
separation and while club membership will have risen the potential for an
operating loss is likely.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Purrfect
Pet’s financial resources have historically been provided by Ensurapet. We will
now need to seek capital financing in order to expand operations without
Ensurapet’s assistance.
Operating
Cash Flows
Purrfect
Pet’s current cash flow rate is insufficient to maintain operations as a
separate public company so capital will need to be raised.
Investing
Cash Flows
Purrfect
Pet has no current cash flow rate from investments.
Financing
Cash Flows
Ensurapet
historically managed our financial resources, including borrowings. As such, our
financing activities to date have been limited to capital transactions with
Ensurapet. Historically, cash from operations were swept to Ensurapet, and
because our operations were cash flow positive, we had cash outflows for
distributions to Ensurapet for the past two fiscal years.
Contractual
Obligations and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The only
contractual obligation is to make the pet club available to insurance
policyholders of Ensurapet at the monthly rate of $2 for a period of not less
than one year. All club fee revenues are the property of Purrfect
Pet.
Qualitative
and Quantitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We are
subject to financial market risks, including Interest Rate Sensitivity. In order
to manage and mitigate our exposure to these risks, we may use various financial
banking institutions which are FDIC insured to deposit investment capital. At
December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, our cash on hand was zero since all
revenues were assigned to Ensurapet through the intercompany
agreement.
Critical
Accounting Estimates
We
prepare our consolidated financial statements and notes to consolidated
financial statements, which were prepared in conformity with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles. The preparation of the consolidated financial
statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts
reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. We
base our estimates on historical experience, current business factors, and
various other assumptions that we believe are necessary to consider and form a
basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities
and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We are subject to
uncertainties such as the impact of future events, economic and political
factors, and changes in our business environment; therefore, actual results
could differ from these estimates. Accordingly, the accounting estimates used in
preparation of our financial statements will change as new events occur, as more
experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained and as our
operating environment changes. Changes in estimates are made when circumstances
warrant. Such changes in estimates and refinements in estimation methodologies
are reflected in reported results of operations; if material, the effects of
changes in estimates are disclosed in the notes to our consolidated financial
statements.
Revenue
Recognition
Revenue
from club membership fees is billed monthly and recognized. Since there is no
long term contract and members can cancel at any time no accounts receivable are
recorded. Revenue from website advertising, such as banner ads etc is recognized
as advertisements are delivered. Revenue from sponsorship arrangements, content
syndication and distribution arrangements, and licenses of pet management tools
and public website communities are recognized on an accrual basis
accounting.
Other
Assets
Consist
of the cost to trademark the club brand name being the Purrfect Pet Club. Since
this trademark has little to no consumer awareness its value was limited to the
legal cost association with securing this name.
BUSINESS
Purrfect
Pet Club Inc. Overview
We are an
online pet club portal community that provides humorous and fun content
including, blogs, podcasts, video, and online shopping to more than 10,000 pet
products.
History
Industry
Overview
There are
a number of online pet clubs but the industry is fragmented in that a great many
are focused by breed specific dogs and cats. Furthermore, nationally known clubs
such as the American Kennel Club, which register pure breed dogs maintains an
online presence. An opportunity exists for broader online pet club that
encompasses each and every pet, which includes hamsters, birds, and fish
etc.
Sales
and Marketing
The
website shall be promoted via internet banner ads on search engines, community
blog sites, and we look to development a direct sales force in
2009.
Research
and Development
We will
be in a constant state of development of not only membership benefits but
website software and content if Purrfect Pet is to retain its online
users.
Intellectual
Property
We have
no unique technology other than the experience and direction of senior
management.
Competition
We
conduct business via the worldwide web and compete with a variety of local and
regional pet focused internet companies. We also compete with the larger more
established online web portals which have a competitive advantage over
us.
We
compete by leveraging our industry expertise to provide differentiated and
unique pet information and service content that we believe has high service
value and is a quality aftermarket service for pet owners.
Employees
We employ
approximately three people before the separation and look for this to increase
to ten people by the year ending 2009. The key manager is Joseph Canagiano who
has operated, consulted, and oversaw various marketing companies.
For the past thirteen years Mr. Cangiano
was the asset manager for Services West. Prior to that position he was the
president and owner of a successful chain of super markets in the New York
metropolitan area. His strengths include marketing analysis, accounting,
innovative thinking and leadership.
The scope of his work shall
include the development and expansion of the club as well as other interactive
relationships that foster greater awareness and revenue streams. The marketing
strategy for Purrfect Pet centers around Mr. Canagiano’s skill set.
Facilities
and Properties
We
utilize the executive office of Purrfect Pet Club located at 2819 Carol Rd.,
Union, NJ 07083 with a monthly rental fee commencing on July 1, 2009 at a rate
of $5,000 per month. We believe that these facilities meet our current operating
requirements and are in good operating condition.

Directors
and Executive Officers
Board
of Directors
After the
spin-off, we expect that Purrfect Pet’s Board of Directors will consist of 2
members, 1 of whom will be independent directors. Each director will
hold office, in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws of
Purrfect Pet Club, Inc., until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until
his or her successor are duly elected and qualified.
Effective
as of the spin-off date, Joseph Cangiano, and William R. Smith will serve as
directors of Purrfect Pet. We expect that all such persons will continue as a
director of Purrfect Pet and that no additional directors will be appointed on
or after the spin-off date to our initial Board of Directors.
Director
Independence
In order
for a director to be considered “independent,” the Board must affirmatively
determine that the director has no material relationship with Purrfect Pet.
(either directly or as a partner, stockholder or officer of an organization that
has a relationship with Purrfect Pet). In each case, the Board considers all
relevant facts and circumstances. We expect to designate directors such that two
of our directors will be independent, in accordance with our Corporate
Governance Guidelines and other applicable laws.
Committees
of the Board of Directors
Our Board
of Directors will establish sometime in 2010 the following standing committees
to assist it with its responsibilities: Audit and Compensation. All members of
the Audit and Compensation Committees will meet the criteria for independence as
established under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Each of the Committees is
described in greater detail below. The Board will establish written charters for
each of the Committees when established, which will be available on our web site
located at www.purrfectpetclub.com.
Audit
Committee
We expect
to designate members of our Audit Committee sometime in 2010. The principal
duties of the Audit Committee under its written charter will include:
(i) responsibilities associated with our external and internal audit
staffing and planning; (ii) accounting and financial reporting issues
associated with our financial statements and filings with the SEC;
(iii) financial and accounting organization and internal controls;
(iv) auditor independence and approval of non-audit services; and
(v) “whistle-blower” procedures for reporting questionable accounting and
audit practices.
The Audit
Committee charter will require that the Committee be comprised of at least two
directors, all of whom must be independent under the standards of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. In addition, each member of the Audit Committee will
be financially literate, and at least one member will have sufficient accounting
or financial management expertise to qualify as an “audit committee financial
expert,” as determined by the Board in accordance with SEC rules.
Compensation
Committee
We expect
to designate members of our Compensation Committee sometime in 2010. The
principal duties of the Compensation Committee under its charter will include:
(i) ensuring that a succession plan for the Chief Executive Officer is in
place; (ii) reviewing management’s recommendations for executive officers
and making recommendations to the Board of Directors; (iii) approving the
compensation for the Chief Executive Officer; (iv) reviewing and approving
compensation policies and practices for other executive officers including their
annual salaries; (v) reviewing and approving major changes in employee
benefit plans; (vi) reviewing short and long-term incentive plans and
equity grants; (vii) recommending to the full Board changes to the
compensation of the independent members of the Board of Directors; and
(viii) reviewing the Compensation Discussion and Analysis to be included in
our annual report or proxy statement and, if appropriate, issuing its report
recommending to the Board of Directors its inclusion of the Compensation
Discussion and Analysis in our annual report or proxy statement. The
Compensation Committee charter will require that the Committee be comprised of
at least two independent directors.
The scope
of authority delegated to the Compensation Committee by the Board of Directors
is to decide whether or not to accept, reject or modify our management’s
proposals for annual compensation awards to our executive officers. The
Compensation Committee also has the authority to recommend the amount of
compensation to be paid to our non-management directors. See “Compensation
Discussion and Analysis” for a detailed description of the role of the
Compensation Committee in reviewing and approving our executive officer and
independent director compensation, see “Compensation Discussion and
Analysis.”
CORPORATE
GOVERNANCE
Governance
Practices
Following
the spin-off, we will initially continue to observe corporate governance
practices and principal governance documents substantially the same as those
adopted by Ensurapet, which are designed to ensure that we maximize stockholder
value in a manner that is consistent with both the legal requirements applicable
to us and a business model that requires our employees to conduct business with
the highest standards of integrity. Our Board will adopted and will adhere to
corporate governance principles which the Board and senior management believe
promote this purpose, are sound and represent best practices, and will review
these governance practices, the corporate laws of the State of Michigan under
which we were incorporated, the rules and the regulations of the SEC, as well as
best practices recognized by governance authorities to benchmark the standards
under which it operates. Our principal governance documents will be as
follows:
|
•
|
|
Corporate
Governance Guidelines;
|
|
•
|
|
Board
of Directors committee charters,
including:
|
|
•
|

Audit
Committee charter;
|
|
•
|
|
Compensation
Committee charter;
|
|
|
|
|
|
•
|
|
Code
of Business Conduct and Ethics.
|
Executive
Director Sessions
Under our
Corporate Governance Guidelines, the outside directors will meet in regularly
scheduled executive sessions without management. We expect that a lead
independent director will be selected by the Board to serve as the presiding
director at these meetings.
Communications
with the Board of Directors
After the
spin-off, stockholders and other interested persons seeking to communicate
directly with the Board of Directors should submit their written comments c/o
Chairman of the Board of Directors at our principal executive offices set forth
on page 4. The Chairman will review any such communication at the next regularly
scheduled Board meeting unless, in his judgment, earlier communication to the
Board is warranted.
If a
stockholder communication raises concerns about the ethical conduct of
management or Purrfect Pet, it should be sent directly to our Corporate
Secretary at our principal executive offices set forth on page 4. The Corporate
Secretary will promptly forward a copy of any such communication to the Chairman
of the Chairman of the Board, and take such actions as they authorize to ensure
that the subject matter is addressed by the appropriate committee of the Board,
by management and/or by the full Board.
At the
direction of the Board, we reserve the right to screen all materials sent to its
directors for potential security risks, harassment purposes or routine
solicitations.
Code
of Business Conduct and Ethics
Prior to
June 1, 2010, we will adopt a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics which will
apply to our directors, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer,
Controller and other Purrfect Pet Club, Inc. employees. The Code of Business
Conduct and Ethics will be available free of charge through the “Governance”
portion of our web site at www.purrfectpetclub.com, or by writing to the
attention of Investor Relations at our principal executive offices set forth on
page 4.
DIRECTOR
COMPENSATION
Our
compensation plan for non-management members of our Board of Directors is
included in our Incentive Compensation and Stock Plan (the “Incentive
Compensation Plan”). The Incentive Compensation Plan grants the Board of
Directors the authority to modify the terms of the Board of Directors’
compensation plan pursuant to a resolution of the Board of
Directors.
EXECUTIVE
COMPENSATION
Compensation
of our Named Executive Officers
We have
identified Joseph Cangiano and William R. Smith as our named executive officers.
We have not designated any other employee of Ensurapet as an executive officer
other than William R. Smith. Our named executive officers for 2009 could change,
as we will hire new executive officers in connection with the spin-off and
because the determination of our named executive officers for 2009 will be based
on our performance and final compensation decisions. We have adopted and will
continue to develop our own compensation plans and programs and anticipate that
each of our executive officers will be covered by these programs following the
spin-off. A more detailed description of our compensation programs can be found
below under the heading “Compensation Discussion and Analysis.”
Compensation
Discussion and Analysis
The
following describes the executive compensation program that we currently
anticipate will be implemented by Purrfect Pet Club, Inc. In general, we do not
anticipate many differences between our executive compensation program and that
of Ensurapet, which we believe has provided appropriate incentives to Ensurapet’
executive officers in a manner that is consistent with the interest of
Ensurapet’ shareholders.
Each of
our executive compensation plans and agreements has been reviewed and approved
by Ensurapet’s Board of Directors, and certain of our executive compensation
plans will have been approved prior to our spin-off by Ensurapet, as our sole
stockholder. Following the spin-off, our executive compensation plans will be
administered by our Board of Directors, until such time as the Compensation
Committee is formed by our Board of Directors sometime in 2010.
General
Principles
The core
principals underlying Ensurapet’s executive compensation philosophy and
practices are:
|
•
|
|
Compensation
opportunities are competitive—potential compensation for executives is
targeted at median levels paid at comparable peer companies with whom
Ensurapet would be likely compete for executive talent in order to
attract, motivate and retain skilled managerial talent over the long
term;
|
|
•
|
|
Executive
compensation is performance-based—a portion of an executive’s compensation
is directly linked to achievement of specific corporate and individual
results that Ensurapet believes create shareholder
value;
|
|
•
|
|
Long
term equity compensation incentives represents a significant portion of
executive compensation—at risk equity compensation in the form of stock
options, time-based restricted stock grants, and performance-based
restricted stock grants, along with stock ownership and retention
guidelines, align executive and shareholder interests and provide proper
motivation for enhancing both short-term and long-term shareholder value;
and
|
|
•
|
|
Compensation
rewards internal talent development—a portion of executive compensation is
tied to recruitment and development of future executive
talent.
|
Purrfect Pet Club, Inc
. Our
core executive compensation principles will mirror those employed by
Ensurapet.
Cash
Pay Elements—Base Pay
Ensurapet
. The annual cash
pay elements that Ensurapet’ executive officers receive include a base salary
and an opportunity to earn an annual non-equity incentive compensation
award.
Purrfect Pet Club, Inc
.,
Similar to Ensurapet,
our executive officers will also receive a base salary and an opportunity for an
annual non-equity incentive compensation award.
Non-Qualified
Stock Options
Ensurapet
. Ensurapet’
Incentive Compensation and Stock Plan grant its management the authority to
issue non-qualified stock options to its executive officers and other key
employees. All stock options granted by Ensurapet to its executive officers are
subject to vesting requirements by the executive. Vesting periods are utilized
as a retention incentive.
Purrfect Pet Club, Inc.
To
the extent we issue stock options, we will also impose vesting
requirements.
Potential
Payments Upon Termination, Death, Disability, or Retirement
Purrfect
Pet has no executive employee contracts at this time. Every officer and employee
is an at will worker.
SECURITY
OWNERSHIP BY
CERTAIN
BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
All of
the outstanding shares of our common stock are, and will be, prior to the
distribution, held beneficially and of record by Ensurapet. The following table
sets forth information concerning shares of our common stock projected to be
beneficially owned immediately after the distribution date by:
|
•
|
|
each
person or entity known by us to be the beneficial owner of 5% or more of
the outstanding shares of Ensurapet’ common
stock;
|
|
•
|
|
each
person who we currently anticipate will be one of our directors at the
time of the distribution;
|
|
•
|
|
each
person who we currently anticipate will be one of our named executive
officers at the time of the distribution;
and
|
|
•
|
|
all
persons who we currently anticipate will be our directors and executive
officers at the time of the distribution as a
group.
|
The
projected share amounts in the table below are based on the number of shares of
Ensurapet common and preferred stock owned by each person or entity at June 1,
2009, as adjusted to reflect the distribution ratio of one share of our common
stock for every share of Ensurapet common stock one share of our preferred stock
for every share of Ensurapet preferred stock. To our knowledge, except as
otherwise indicated in the footnotes below, each person or entity has sole
voting and investment power with respect to the shares of common stock set forth
opposite such persons or entity’s name. Beneficial ownership is determined in
accordance with the rules of the SEC and generally includes voting or investment
power with respect to the securities. Shares of common stock and stock options
that are vested or are scheduled to vest within 60 days are deemed to be
outstanding and to be beneficially owned by the persons holding the options for
the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of the person. The address of
each of the directors and officers listed below is Purrfect Pet Club, Inc., 2819
Carol Rd., Union, NJ 07083, Attention: Corporate Secretary.

OUR
RELATIONSHIP WITH ENSURAPET AFTER THE SPIN-OFF
General
In
connection with the spin-off, we and Ensurapet will enter into the Separation
Agreement to complete the separation of our businesses from Ensurapet and to
distribute our common and preferred stock to Ensurapet stockholders. This
agreement will govern the relationship between us and Ensurapet after the
distribution and will also provide for the allocation of employee benefits,
taxes and other liabilities and obligations attributable to periods prior to the
distribution. The agreement will have been prepared before the distribution, and
will reflect agreement between affiliated parties established without
arms-length negotiation. However, we believe that the terms of the agreement
will equitably reflect the benefits and costs of our ongoing relationships with
Ensurapet.
Of the
agreement summarized below, the material agreement have been or will be filed as
an exhibit to the registration statement that we have filed with the SEC, of
which this information statement forms a part. The summary of material agreement
is qualified in their entireties by reference to the full text of the
agreements.
Separation
and Distribution Agreement
The
Separation and Distribution Agreement, which we refer to as the “Separation
Agreement,” sets forth the agreement between us and Ensurapet with respect to
the principal corporate transactions required to effect our separation from
Ensurapet; the transitional services required to effect such separation; the
distribution of our shares to Ensurapet stockholders; our dividend to Ensurapet;
and other agreements governing the relationship between Ensurapet and us
following the separation. Ensurapet will only consummate the spin-off if
specified conditions are met. These conditions include final approval of the
distribution given by the Board of Directors of Ensurapet, and the actions and
filings necessary or appropriate under federal and state securities laws and
state blue sky laws of the United States in connection with the distribution
shall have been taken and, where applicable, become effective or
accepted.
For
additional information regarding conditions to the distribution, see “The
Spin-Off—Spin-Off Conditions and Termination” beginning on page 31.
Even if
these conditions are satisfied, other events or circumstances could occur that
could impact the timing or terms of the spin-off or Ensurapet’ ability or plans
to consummate the spin-off. As a result of these factors, the spin-off may not
occur and, if it does occur, it may not occur on the terms or in the manner
described, or in the timeframe currently contemplated.
The
Contribution; Allocation of Assets and Liabilities; No Representations and
Warranties
In
connection with the distribution, Ensurapet has contributed or will contribute
to us certain business segments and assets to be included in our business, as
described in this information statement. It will effect this contribution by
transferring, or causing its subsidiaries to transfer, certain assets related to
the conduct of our business. Ensurapet will have no interest in our assets and
business and, subject to certain exceptions described below, generally will have
no obligation with respect to our liabilities after the distribution. Similarly,
we will have no interest in the assets of Ensurapet’ other business segments and
generally will have no obligation with respect to the liabilities of Ensurapet’
retained businesses after the distribution.
Except as
expressly set forth in the Separation Agreement, Ensurapet will make no
representations or warranties as to the assets, businesses or liabilities
transferred or assumed as part of the contribution. Furthermore, unless
expressly provided to the contrary in any ancillary agreement, all assets will
be transferred on an “as is, where is” basis, and the respective transferees
will agree to bear the economic and legal risks that any conveyance is
insufficient to vest in the transferee good and marketable title free and clear
of any security interest and that any necessary consents or approvals are not
obtained or that requirements of laws or judgments are not complied
with.
The
Distribution
Following
the satisfaction or waiver of all conditions to the distribution as set forth in
the Separation Agreement, Ensurapet will deliver to the distribution agent a
certificate or certificates representing all of the outstanding shares of our
common and preferred stock. Ensurapet will instruct the distribution agent to
distribute those shares on June 1, 2009, or as soon thereafter as practicable,
so that each Ensurapet stockholder will receive one of a share of our common
stock for every share of Ensurapet common stock and one share or our preferred
stock for every share of Ensurapet preferred stock such stockholder owns as of
the record date of the spin-off.
No
fractional shares of our common or preferred stock shall be distributed in the
distribution. Ensurapet shall direct the distribution agent to determine, as
soon as practicable, the sum of fractional shares of our common and preferred
stock that would have been issued in the distribution and sell the nearest
number of whole shares equal to such sum in open market transactions or
otherwise, in each case at then prevailing trading prices. The distribution
agent shall then cause to be distributed to the holders of Ensurapet common and
preferred stock entitled to receive such proceeds in lieu of fractional shares
an amount in cash equal to such holder’s ratable share of the proceeds of such
sale, without interest, after making appropriate deductions of the amount
required to be withheld for federal income tax purposes and after deducting an
amount equal to all brokerage charges, commissions and transfer taxes attributed
to such sale.
Indemnification
and Survival
Except as
specifically otherwise provided in the ancillary agreements, Ensurapet will
indemnify, defend and hold harmless us, our affiliates, our respective
representatives and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any
of the foregoing from and against all indemnifable losses relating to, arising
out of or resulting from:
(a) the
failure of Ensurapet:
|
•
|
|
(i)
to pay or otherwise promptly discharge any of Ensurapet’ liabilities,
whether such indemnifiable losses relate to events, occurrences or
circumstances occurring or existing, or whether such indemnifiable losses
are asserted, before or after the distribution;
or
|
|
•
|
|
(ii)
to perform any of its obligations under the Separation Agreement;
or
|
(b)
Ensurapet’ business and liabilities, except to the extent such liabilities
relate to our business or except as otherwise specifically provided in the
Separation Agreement.
Except as
specifically otherwise provided in the ancillary agreements, we will indemnify,
defend and hold harmless Ensurapet, its affiliates, their respective
representatives and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any
of the foregoing from and against all indemnifiable losses relating to, arising
out of or resulting from:
(a) the
failure by us:
|
•
|
|
(i)
to pay or otherwise promptly discharge any of our liabilities (which
liabilities shall include all liabilities, whether incurred before or
after the spin-off, of Purrfect Pet and of the former pet club business
segments of Ensurapet, and whether or not currently owned, used or
occupied by Ensurapet and its subsidiaries or affiliates), whether such
indemnifiable losses relate to events, occurrences or circumstances
occurring or existing, or whether such indemnifiable losses are asserted
before or after the distribution;
or
|
|
•
|
|
(ii)
to perform any of our obligations under the Separation Agreement;
or
|
(b) any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact, or omission or
alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated, in any portion
of the registration statement or information statement (or any preliminary or
final form thereof or any amendment thereto) to be filed with the SEC, or
necessary to make any assertions in the registration statement or information
statement not misleading.
All
covenants and agreements of the parties contained in the Separation Agreement
will survive the contribution, separation and distribution. Our rights and
obligations as well as those of Ensurapet and any respective indemnitees under
the Separation Agreement will survive the sale or other transfer by any party or
its respective subsidiaries of any assets or businesses or the assignment by it
of any liabilities. Additionally, indemnity and contribution provisions
contained in the Separation Agreement will remain operative and in full force
and effect, regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of any
indemnitee; (ii) the knowledge by the indemnitee of indemnifiable losses
for which it might be entitled to indemnification or contribution hereunder; or
(iii) any termination of the Separation Agreement.
Expenses
Except as
expressly set forth in the Separation Agreement or any ancillary agreement, if
the separation and distribution are completed, all third party fees, costs and
expenses paid or incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by
the Separation Agreement and the ancillary agreements will be paid by Ensurapet.
If the separation and distribution does not occur, Ensurapet shall bear all such
fees, costs and expenses.
Dispute
Resolution
The
Separation Agreement will contain provisions that govern, except as otherwise
provided in any ancillary agreements, the resolution of disputes, controversies
or claims that may arise between us and Ensurapet. In the event of any dispute
or disagreement between us and Ensurapet as to the interpretation of any
provision of the Separation Agreement (or the performance of obligations
hereunder), we and Ensurapet will promptly meet in a good faith effort to
resolve the dispute. If the officers do not agree upon a decision within 30 days
after reference of the matter to them, each of the parties will submit any
controversy, dispute or claim arising out of or relating in any way to the
Separation Agreement or the transactions arising hereunder for arbitration in
the Canton, Ohio, and such arbitration shall be the sole remedy for such
monetary claims; provided that disputes regarding the amount of any post
spin-off true-up of the dividend to be paid on the date of the distribution (to
assure that the 2009 cash flow of the Purrfect Pet Club, Inc. business has been
properly apportioned) shall be finally resolved by an independent accountant if
the parties have not been able to reach a timely agreement on any such dispute.
Such arbitration will be administered by the Center for Public Resources
Institute for Dispute Resolutions in accordance with its then prevailing Rules
for Non-Administered Arbitration of Business Disputes (except as otherwise
provided in the Separation Agreement), by an arbitrator or arbitrators as
selected and described in the Separation Agreement. The arbitration will be
governed by the United States Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.
The award rendered by the arbitrator(s) shall be final and not subject to
judicial review and judgment thereon may be entered in any court of competent
jurisdiction.
The fees
and expenses of the Center for Public Resources Institute for Dispute Resolution
and the arbitrator(s) will be shared equally by us and Ensurapet.
Tax
Sharing Agreement
The tax
sharing agreement will set forth the responsibilities of Ensurapet and Purrfect
Pet Club, Inc. with respect to, among other things, liabilities for federal,
state, local and foreign taxes for periods before and including the spin-off,
the preparation and filing of tax returns for such periods and disputes with
taxing authorities regarding taxes for such periods. The tax sharing agreement
will also provide that Ensurapet will have to indemnify us for all of the taxes
resulting from the transactions related to the distribution of our common and
preferred stock if we take certain actions which ultimately result in
disqualifying the distribution as tax-free under Sections 355 and 368 of the
Code. The tax sharing agreement will also require Ensurapet to indemnify us
against any liability for tax if Ensurapet’ actions cause the disqualification
of the spin-off as tax free under the Code.
DESCRIPTION
OF OUR CAPITAL STOCK
Upon the
completion of this spin-off, we will be authorized to issue 500,000,000 shares
of our common stock, $0.001 par value, 3,000,000 shares of preferred stock class
G, and 100,000 shares of preferred stock class D, $0.001 par value. The
following description of our capital stock is subject to and qualified in its
entirety by our Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws, which are included as
exhibits to the registration statement of which this information statement is a
part, and by the provisions of applicable Michigan law.
Authorized
and Outstanding Capital Stock
Immediately
following the spin-off, our authorized capital stock will consist of 100,000,000
shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 3,100,000 shares of
preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. Based on the approximately
100,000,000 shares of Ensurapet common stock that we expect to be outstanding on
the record date, and a distribution ratio of one share of our common stock for
every share of Ensurapet common stock, we will have approximately100,000,000
shares of common stock outstanding
immediately
following the spin-off. Based on the approximately 3,100,000 shares of Ensurapet
preferred stock that we expect to be outstanding on the record date, and a
distribution ratio of one share of our preferred stock for every share of
Ensurapet preferred stock, we will have approximately 3,100,000 shares of
preferred stock outstanding immediately following the spin-off. The actual
number of shares to be distributed will be determined on the record
date.
Common
Stock
Prior to
this spin-off, there were 100 shares of our common stock outstanding, all of
which were held of record by Ensurapet.
The
holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters to
be voted upon by our stockholders. Subject to preferences that may be applicable
to any of our outstanding preferred stock, the holders of our common stock are
entitled to receive ratably such dividends, if any, as may be declared from time
to time by our Board of Directors out of funds legally available for that
purpose. See “Dividend Policy.” In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or
winding-up, the holders of our common stock are entitled to share ratably in all
assets remaining after payment of liabilities, subject to prior distribution
rights of our preferred stock, if any, then outstanding. The holders of our
common stock have no preemptive or conversion rights or other subscription
rights. There are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to our
common stock.
Preferred
Stock
Our Board
of Directors has the authority, without action by our stockholders, to designate
and issue our preferred stock in one or more series and to designate the rights,
preferences and privileges of each series, which may be greater than the rights
of our common stock. It is not possible to state the actual effect of the
issuance of any shares of our preferred stock upon the rights of holders of our
common stock until our Board of Directors determines the specific rights of the
holders of our preferred stock. However, the effects might include, among other
things:
|
•
|
|
restricting
dividends on our common stock;
|
|
•
|
|
diluting
the voting power of our common
stock;
|
|
•
|
|
impairing
the liquidation rights of our common stock;
or
|
|
•
|
|
delaying
or preventing a change-in-control of our company without further action by
our stockholders.
|
At the
closing of this spin-off, 3,100,000 shares of our preferred stock will be
outstanding, and, other than shares of our preferred stock that may become
issuable pursuant to our rights agreement, we have no present plans to issue any
further shares of our preferred stock. See “Description of Our Capital Stock—The
Rights Agreement.”
Authorized
but Unissued Capital Stock
Michigan
law does not require stockholder approval for any issuance of authorized
shares. These additional shares may be used for a variety of
corporate purposes, including future public offerings, to raise additional
capital or to facilitate acquisitions.
One of
the effects of the existence of unissued and unreserved common stock or
preferred stock may be to enable our Board of Directors to issue shares to
persons friendly to current management, which issuance could render more
difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of our company by means of
a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise, and thereby protect the
continuity of our management and possibly deprive the stockholders of
opportunities to sell their shares of common stock at prices higher than
prevailing market prices.
Certificate
of Incorporation; By-Laws
Our
certificate of incorporation and by-laws contain provisions that could make more
difficult the acquisition of Purrfect Pet Club, Inc. by means of a tender offer,
a proxy contest or otherwise. These provisions are summarized
below.
Undesignated Preferred Stock
.
The authorization of our undesignated preferred stock makes it possible for our
Board of Directors to issue our preferred stock with voting or other rights or
preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to change control of
us. These and other provisions may have the effect of deferring hostile
takeovers or delaying changes of control of our management.
Size of Board and Vacancies
.
Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that the number of directors on our
Board of Directors will be fixed exclusively by our Board of Directors. Newly
created directorships resulting from any increase in our authorized number of
directors or any vacancies in our Board of Directors resulting from death,
resignation, retirement, disqualification, removal from office or other cause
will be filled solely by the vote of our remaining directors in
office.
No Cumulative Voting.
Our
certificate of incorporation and by-laws do not provide for cumulative voting in
the election of directors.
Stockholder Meetings.
Under
our by-laws, only our Board of Directors may call special meetings of our
stockholders.
Amendments of Certificate of
Incorporation Provisions.
The amendment of any of the above provisions in
our certificate of incorporation would require approval by holders of at least
80% of our outstanding common stock.
Indemnification
and Limitation of Liability of Directors and Officers
The State
of Michigan provides that, among other things, a corporation may indemnify
directors and officers as well as other employees and agents of the corporation
against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid
in settlement in connection with specified actions, suits or proceedings,
whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than actions by
or in the right of the corporation, i.e. a “derivative action”), if they acted
in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed
to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal
action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was
unlawful. A similar standard is applicable in the case of derivative actions,
except that indemnification only extends to expenses (including attorneys’ fees)
incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such actions, and the
statute requires court approval before there can be any indemnification where
the person seeking indemnification has been found liable to the corporation. The
statute provides that it is not exclusive of other indemnification that may be
granted by a corporation’s by-laws, disinterested director vote, stockholder
vote, and agreement or otherwise.
Our
certificate of incorporation and by-laws require indemnification to the fullest
extent permitted by Michigan law. We also intend to obtain directors’ and
officers’ liability insurance providing coverage to our officers and directors
when capital is sufficient to cover the cost of the insurance. Our certificate
of incorporation requires the advancement of expenses incurred by officers and
directors in relation to any action, suit or proceeding.
2009
Annual Meeting of Stockholders
Our
by-laws provide that an annual meeting of stockholders will be held each year on
a date fixed by resolution of our Board of Directors. The first annual meeting
of our stockholders after the spin-off is expected to be held in August
2009.
In order
for a shareholder to bring, pursuant to our by-laws, nominations or other
proposals before the 2009 annual stockholders meeting, the shareholder must
provide written notice, delivered to our principal executive offices set forth
on page 4, Attn: Corporate Secretary, no earlier than the close of business on
the 120th day prior to the annual meeting and not later than the close of
business on the later of the 90th day prior to the annual meeting or the 10th
day following the day on which we make the first public announcement of the date
of the annual meeting. Such notice must contain the specific information
required by our by-laws regarding the nominee or proposal, including, but not
limited to, name, address, class and number of shares held, information
regarding the nominee or a description of the proposal and other specified
matters.
You can
obtain a copy of our by-laws without charge by writing to the Corporate
Secretary at the address shown above.
DESCRIPTION
OF INDEBTEDNESS
Our
indebtedness is expected to consist of the following after the spin-off:
None
Ensurapet
believes that this dividend compensates it for the capital that it historically
contributed to our businesses and that the payment of the dividend will result
in the us having an appropriate level of indebtedness following the spin-off.
Ensurapet intends to use the proceeds from the dividend to repurchase stock and
repay indebtedness.
WHERE
YOU CAN FIND MORE INFORMATION
We have
filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form 10 with respect to the
shares of our common and preferred stock to be received by the stockholders of
Ensurapet in the spin-off. This information statement does not contain all of
the information set forth in the Form 10 registration statement and the exhibits
to the Form 10 registration statement. For further information with respect to
Purrfect Pet Club, Inc. and the shares of our common and preferred stock,
reference is hereby made to the Form 10 registration statement, including its
exhibits. Statements made in this information statement relating to the contents
of any contract, agreement or other documents are not necessarily complete and
you should refer to the exhibits attached to the registration statement for
copies of the actual contract, agreement or other document, with each such

it refers. You may review a copy of the Form 10 registration statement,
including its exhibits, at the SEC’s public reference room, located at 100 F
Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20549. You may obtain copies of all or any part
of these materials from the SEC upon the payment of certain fees prescribed by

reference room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. In addition, copies of the
Form 10 registration statement and related documents may be obtained through the

As a
result of the spin-off, we will become subject to the information and reporting
requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and, in accordance with the
Exchange Act, will file reports, proxy statements and other information with the
SEC. After the spin-off, these reports, proxy statements and other information
may be inspected and copied at the public reference facilities of the SEC listed
above. You also will be able to obtain copies of this material from the public
reference facilities of the SEC as described above, or inspect them without
charge at the SEC’s web site.

REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Purrfect
Pet Club, Inc.
The Board
of Directors and Stockholders
We have
audited the Balance sheet s of Purrfect Pet Club, Inc. as of December 31,
2008 and 2007 and the related statements of operations, stockholders equity
and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2008,
and from January 17, 2006 (inception) to December 31, 2008. These
statements are responsibility of Company’s Management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our
audit.
We
conducted our audit in accordance with standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatements. An audit includes examining on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
The
Company has had difficulty in generating sufficient cash flow to meet its
obligations and is dependent on management’s ability to develop profitable
operations. These factors, among others may raise substantial doubt about their
ability to continue as a going concern.
In our
opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Purrfect Pet Club, Inc., as of
December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the related statements of operations,
stockholders equity and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended
December 31, 2008 and from January 17, 2006 (inception) to December 31,
2008, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTES
TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December
31, 2008, December 31, 2007, and December 31, 2006
NOTE
1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Development Stage
Company
Purrfect
Pet Club, Inc. (the Company) is a wholly owned Subsidiary, Ensurapet, Inc. and
it is a development stage company as defined under Statements of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 7. Purrfect Pet Club, Inc. was incorporated on
January 17, 2006, in the State of Michigan. Purrfect Pet Club intends to provide
a living with pets’ online portal that provides humorous and fun content
including online shopping as an affiliate retailer. The Company was dormant
through 2006 and 2007 with minimal activity until 2008 when it expanded
operations though remaining a development stage company.
Purrfect
Pet Club uses an accrual basis accounting.
Cash and Cash
Equivalents
For
purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all short-term
debt securities purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash
equivalents.
The
Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of Statements of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 “Accounting for Income Taxes”, which
requires a company to recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the
expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in a
company’s financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax
assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the
financial statement carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities
using enacted tax rates. The Company has no differences between book and tax
accounting.
Property
and equipment are carried at cost. Maintenance, repairs and renewals are
expensed as incurred. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided for
over their estimated useful life.

|
The
preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures.
Accordingly, actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Concentration of Credit
Risks
During
2006, 2007, and 2008, the Company had no deposits in banks therefore it was
within the FDIC insurance limit.
NOTE
2 – OTHER NONCURRENT ASSETS
The Company utilizes the
software developed and owned by its parent company
Ensurapet.
Trademarks
represent the third party costs in connection with the filing of trademark
applications and related research. The Company evaluates, at least annually, for
potential impairment, this recorded amount, by means of a cash flow analysis in
accordance with SFAS 142.
NOTE
2 – EQUITY
The
Company has adopted the provisions of SFAS 128 in the computation of earnings
whereby the convertible Preferred Stock was deemed converted to common stock on
date of issue.
The
Company has 1,000 shares of common stock authorized with 100 shares outstanding
at December 31, 2008, December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006
respectively.
NOTE
3 – OPERATING SEGMENTS
The
Company is but one segment of the parent company Ensurapet’s three reportable
segments: the parent company (Ensurapet, Inc.), the insurance agency (Vsurance
Insurance Agency, Inc.) and the pet club (Purrfect Pet Club); however, all
assets and expenditures had been reported through the parent company (Ensurapet)
since the company was a development stage.
NOTE
10 – GOING CONCERN
The
Company has generated only minimal revenues and no profits to
date. This factor among others including the ability of the Company
to raise operating capital raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability
to continue as a going concern. Management feels the Company’s
continuation as a going concern depends upon its ability to obtain additional
sources of capital and financing. Management feels it can raise the
