                         SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Organization

MBE Capital Partners, Inc. (“the Company”) was formed in July 2013 in the State of New York as a sub
division of Republic Companies. The Company is a corporation company. The Company makes loans against
receivables and assets.

Accounting basis

The Company uses the accrual basis of accounting for financial statement reporting. Accordingly, revenues
are recognized when services are rendered and expenses are realized when the obligation is incurred. For tax
purposes, the Company uses the cash basis.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased
to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates market value.

Inventories

Inventories consist of paper which is stated at the lower of cost (determined using the first-in, first-out
method) or market value.

Property and equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method
over the following useful lives:
                                                           Estimated
Description                                                useful life

Furniture and fixtures                                            7
Computers                                                         3

Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts
of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

                               MBE CAPITAL PARTNERS, Inc.
                       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Income taxes

The Company is taxed as a disregarded entity for federal income tax purposes and, thus, no income tax
expense has been recorded in the financial statements. Taxable income of the Company is reported on the
individual tax return of its sole member. However, the Company is subject to New York City
Unincorporated business taxes.

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method as required by Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based
upon the differences between financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and
liabilities. Deferred tax liabilities represent the tax effects of taxable and deductible temporary differences in
book and tax reporting. The taxable temporary difference primarily consists of the use of the accrual method
for financial statement reporting purposes and the cash method for tax reporting purposes.
