PROXY STATEMENT



 

GENERAL INFORMATION

This proxy statement (“Proxy Statement”) is being furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the board of directors (the “Board of Directors”) of Organic To Go Food Corporation (together with its wholly owned subsidiary, Organic To Go, Inc., the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”) for use at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting” or the “Meeting”) to be held at 10:00 a.m., local time, on May 16, 2008, at 601 Union Street, 51st Floor, Seattle, Washington 98101, and at any adjournment thereof. It is anticipated that this Proxy Statement and accompanying proxy will be mailed on or about April 16, 2008, to all stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. When your proxy is properly executed and returned, the shares it represents will be voted in accordance with any directions noted thereon.

At the close of business on April 10, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting, we had issued and outstanding 36,329,755 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share. Each share of our common stock entitles the holder of record thereof to one vote on any matter coming before the Annual Meeting. Only stockholders of record at the close of business on April 10, are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting or any adjournment thereof.

Voting

You may vote by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person. You may also vote by completing and mailing the enclosed proxy card. If your shares are held by a bank, broker or other nominee, please refer to the instructions they provide for voting your shares. All shares entitled to vote and represented by properly executed proxies received before the polls are closed at the Annual Meeting, and not revoked or superseded, will be voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the instructions indicated on those proxies.

The method of voting by proxy differs for shares held as a record holder and shares held in “street name,” which means shares that are held of record by a broker, bank or other nominee. If you hold your shares of common stock as a record holder, you may vote by completing, dating and signing the enclosed proxy card and promptly returning it in the enclosed, preaddressed, postage paid envelope or otherwise mailing it to us by following the instructions on the enclosed proxy card. If you hold your shares of common stock in street name, which means your shares are held of record by a broker, bank or nominee, you will receive instructions from your broker, bank or other nominee that you must follow in order to vote your shares. Your broker, bank or nominee may allow you to deliver your voting instructions over the Internet or by telephone. Please see the voting instructions from your broker, bank or nominee that accompany this Proxy Statement.

If you plan to attend the Annual Meeting and wish to vote in person, you will be given a ballot at the Annual Meeting. Please note, however, that if your shares are held in street name and you wish to vote at the Annual Meeting, you must bring to the Annual Meeting a legal proxy from the record holder of the shares, which is the broker or other nominee, authorizing you to vote at the Annual Meeting.

Your vote is very important. Accordingly, please complete, sign and return the enclosed proxy card or voting instruction card whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting in person. If you properly give your proxy and submit it to us in time to vote, one of the individuals named as your proxy will vote your shares as you have directed.

Any stockholder of record has the power to revoke his or her proxy at any time before it is voted by delivering a written notice to our Secretary, bearing a date later than the date of the proxy, stating that the proxy is revoked, or by signing and delivering a new proxy, relating to the same shares and bearing a later date than the original proxy. In addition, a stockholder of record attending the Annual Meeting may revoke his

1


TABLE OF CONTENTS

or her proxy and vote in person if he or she desires to do so, but attendance at the Annual Meeting will not of itself revoke the proxy. Written notices of revocation and other communications with respect to the revocation of proxies should be addressed to Organic To Go Food Corporation, 3317 Third Avenue South, Seattle, Washington 98134, Attention: Secretary.

If your shares are held in street name, you may change your vote by submitting new voting instructions to your broker, bank or other nominee. You must contact your broker, bank or other nominee to find out how to do so.

The enclosed proxy, when properly signed, also confers discretionary authority with respect to amendments or variations to the matters identified in the notice of Annual Meeting and with respect to other matters which may be properly brought before the Annual Meeting. At the time of printing this Proxy Statement, our management is not aware of any other matters to be presented for action at the Annual Meeting. If, however, other matters which are not now known to our management should properly come before the Annual Meeting, the proxies hereby solicited will be exercised on such matters in accordance with the best judgment of the proxy holders.

Shares represented by executed and unrevoked proxies will be voted in accordance with the instructions contained therein or, in the absence of such instructions, in accordance with the recommendations of our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors is recommending a vote “FOR” each of the seven director nominees, “FOR” the ratification of the selection of the independent auditors, and “FOR” the amendment of our 2007 Equity Participation Plan.

Quorum and Vote Required

The presence at the Annual Meeting, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the eligible votes on the record date will constitute a quorum, permitting the meeting to conduct its business. Proxies received, but marked as abstentions, and broker non-votes (i.e.. shares that are not voted by the broker who is the record holder of the shares because the broker is not instructed to vote by the actual owner of the shares and does not have discretionary authority to vote such shares) will be included in the calculation of the number of votes considered to be present at the Meeting for purposes of a quorum. Brokers or other nominees who hold shares of our common stock in street name for a beneficial owner of those shares generally have the authority to vote in their discretion on “routine” proposals when they have not received instructions from beneficial owners.

For Proposal 1, directors will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast. This means that the seven directors receiving the highest number of votes will be elected as directors. Any broker non-vote or abstention will not have an effect on the election of directors.

For Proposal 2, the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares represented in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote is required for the ratification of the selection of Rose, Snyder & Jacobs as our independent auditors. Abstentions will have the same effect as voting against this proposal. Any broker non-vote will not have an effect on the ratification of Rose, Snyder & Jacobs as our independent auditors.

For Proposal 3, the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares represented in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote is required for approval of the amendment of the Company’s 2007 Equity Participation Plan. Abstentions will have the same effect as voting against this proposal. Broker non-votes will not have an effect on this proposal.

Solicitation

We will pay the expenses of soliciting proxies for the Annual meeting, including the cost of preparing, assembling, and mailing the proxy solicitation materials. In addition to the solicitation of proxies by mail, we will request that brokers, banks and other nominees that hold shares of our common stock, which are beneficially owned by our stockholders, send proxies and proxy materials to those beneficial owners and secure those beneficial owners’ voting instructions. We will reimburse those record holders for their reasonable expenses. Proxies may be solicited personally, by mail, or by telephone, by directors, officers, and regular employees of the Company who will not be additionally compensated therefore.

The matters to be considered and acted upon at the Annual Meeting are referred to in the preceding notice and are more fully discussed below.

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

(Proposal No. 1 of the Proxy Card)

Nominees

The Board of Directors consists of seven members. At each annual meeting of stockholders, directors are elected for a term of one year to succeed those directors whose terms expire on the annual meeting date.

The seven candidates nominated for election as directors at the Annual Meeting are Jason Brown, Dave Smith, Peter Meehan, Roy Bingham, Douglas Lioon, S.M. “Hass” Hassan and Gunnar Weikert. The enclosed proxy will be voted in favor of these individuals unless other instructions are given. If elected, the nominees will serve as directors until the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders in 2009, and until their successors are elected and qualified. If any nominee declines to serve or becomes unavailable for any reason, or if a vacancy occurs before the election (although the Company knows of no reason to anticipate that this will occur), the proxies may be voted for such substitute nominees as the Board of Directors may designate.

If a quorum is present and voting, the seven nominees for directors receiving the highest number of votes will be elected as directors. Abstentions and shares held by brokers that are present, but not voted because the brokers were prohibited from exercising discretionary authority, i.e.. broker non-votes, will be counted as present only for purposes of determining if a quorum is present.

The following table sets forth the nominees for election as directors at the Meeting. All of our directors, other than Gunnar Weikert, have held their positions with us since February 12, 2007, which is the date when we acquired Organic To Go, Inc.

Dr. Weikert, or his designated successors, have the right to sit on any committee established by the Board of Directors.

Board of Directors

The Company’s Board of Directors is currently composed of seven members. Mr. Brown has been elected as the Chairman of the Board of Directors. In this capacity he is responsible for presiding at the meetings of the Board of Directors. All directors are elected annually and serve until the next annual meeting of stockholders or until the election and qualification of their successors. There are no family relationships between any of our directors or executive officers.

Board of Directors Meetings and Committees of the Board of Directors

There were 12 meetings of the Board of Directors during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007. No person serving as a director during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, attended fewer than 75% of the aggregate number of meetings held by the Board of Directors and all committees on which such director served. One member of the Board of Directors attended our 2007 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

The Board of Directors has established an Audit Committee and Compensation Committee. The Audit Committee, which is comprised of Douglas Lioon and Roy Bingham, met four times during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007. The Compensation Committee, which is comprised of S.M. “Hass” Hassan and Douglas Lioon, met four times during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.

Audit Committee

The Company has a separately designated standing Audit Committee, which makes recommendations for selection of the Company’s independent public accountants, reviews with the independent public accountants the plans and results of the audit engagement, approves professional services provided by the independent public accountants, reviews the independence of the independent public accountants, considers the range of audit and any non-audit fees, and reviews the financial statements of the Company and the adequacy of the Company’s internal accounting controls and financial management practices.

The Audit Committee currently consists of Messrs. Lioon and Bingham. The Board of Directors has determined that, based upon his prior work experience and his tenure and experience on the Company’s Audit Committee, Mr. Bingham qualifies as an “Audit Committee Financial Expert” as this term has been defined under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). To date, no determination has been made as to whether any other member of the Audit Committee also qualifies as an Audit Committee Financial Expert.

There were four meetings of the Audit Committee during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007. The Audit Committee has not adopted a charter. However, the Audit Commitee intends to adopt a charter in the near future.

Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee is responsible for determining compensation for the Company’s executive officers, reviewing and approving executive compensation policies and practices, and providing advice and input to the Board of Directors in the administration of the Company’s equity compensation plan. The Compensation Committee consists of Messrs. Lioon and Hassan. There were four meetings of the Compensation Committee during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.

The Compensation Committee takes into account various qualitative and quantitative indicators of corporate and individual performance in determining the level and composition of compensation to be paid to the executive officers. In addition, the Compensation Committee receives input from executive officers with respect to certain aspects of compensation, such as bonuses.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

In general, the process by which the Compensation Committee makes decisions relating to executive compensation includes, but is not limited to, consideration of the following factors:

The Company’s executive compensation philosophy and practices.
The Company’s performance relative to peers and industry standards.
Success in attaining annual and long-term goals and objectives.
Alignment of executive interests with stockholder interests through equity-based awards and performance-based compensation.
Individual and team contributions, performance and experience.
Total compensation and the mix of compensation elements for each executive officer.
Compensation practices and corporate financial performance of other companies in the industries in which the Company operates.

The Compensation Committee has not adopted a charter. The Compensation Committee intends to adopt a charter in the near future.

The Board of Directors may designate from among its members one or more additional committees. The Company does not currently have a nominating committee. The Company has determined that the functions ordinarily handled by a nominating committee are currently adequately handled by the entire Board of Directors.

Nominations by Stockholders

Nominees for our Board of Directors are determined by our Board of Directors as a whole, based on recommendations of one or more of its members. We do not have a formal policy with regard to the consideration of any director candidates recommended by security holders. However, the Board of Directors generally considers all suggestions from individual investors, subject to evaluation of the suggested nominee’s merits. Stockholders may communicate nominee suggestions directly to any of the Board members, accompanied by biographical details and a statement of support for the nominees. The suggested nominee must also provide a statement of consent prior to being considered for nomination. Although there is no formal criteria for nominees, our Board of Directors believes that nominees should be actively engaged in business endeavors, have a financial background, and be familiar with acquisition strategies and the restaurant or food service industry. We do not have any restrictions on stockholder nominations under our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or Amended and Restated Bylaws. The only restrictions are those applicable generally under Delaware law and the federal proxy rules.

Code of Ethics

Prior to our merger with Organic To Go, Inc. on February 12, 2007, we were a non-operating shell company. As a result, we had no need for, and had not adopted a code of ethics. We plan to adopt a code of ethics in the near future.

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends that you vote FOR the election of each of Jason Brown, Dave Smith, Peter Meehan, Roy Bingham, Douglas Lioon, S.M. “Hass” Hassan and Gunnar Weikert as directors of the Company. Holders of proxies solicited by this Proxy Statement will vote the proxies received by them as directed on the proxy or, if no direction is made, for each of the above-named nominees. The election of directors requires a plurality of the votes cast by the holders of the Company’s common stock present in person at the Meeting or represented by proxy, and entitled to vote on the subject matter of the proposal.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF
INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

(Proposal No. 2 of the Proxy Card)

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has selected Rose, Snyder & Jacobs as the Company’s independent registered public accountants for the year ending December 31, 2008, and has further directed that management submit the selection of independent registered public accountants for ratification by the Company’s stockholders at the Annual Meeting. Rose, Snyder & Jacobs has no financial interest in the Company and neither it nor any member or employee of the firm has had any connection with the Company in the capacity of promoter, underwriter, voting trustee, director, officer or employee.

In the event that the Company’s stockholders fail to ratify the selection of Rose, Snyder & Jacobs, the Audit Committee will reconsider whether or not to retain the firm. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors in their discretion may direct the appointment of a different independent accounting firm at any time during the year if they determine that such a change would be in the Company’s and its stockholders’ best interests.

Representatives of Rose, Snyder & Jacobs are not expected to be present at the Annual Meeting.

Our Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote “FOR” the ratification of Rose, Snyder & Jacobs as the Company’s independent registered public accountants for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2008. Holders of proxies solicited by this Proxy Statement will vote the proxies received by them as directed on the proxy or, if no direction is made, in favor of this proposal. In order to be adopted, this proposal must be approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock present and voting at the Meeting.

RATIFICATION OF AMENDMENT TO 2007 EQUITY PARTICIPATION PLAN

(Proposal No. 3 of the Proxy Card)

The Board of Directors has voted to amend the Company’s 2007 Equity Participation Plan (the “2007 Plan”) to increase the number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the plan by 2,000,000 shares. No other changes to the 2007 Plan are presently proposed.

The 2007 Plan has been in place since May 16, 2007. As of March 31, 2008, no options have been exercised since the inception of the 2007 Plan. As of March 31, 2008, options to purchase 3,213,934 shares were outstanding under the 2007 Plan. As of such date, the Company had issued 39,375 shares of restricted stock under the 2007 Plan. As a result, the Company presently has only 346,691 shares authorized for issuance under the 2007 Plan.

The Board of Directors believes that the proposed increase in the number of shares of common stock available for issuance as provided in the 2007 Plan will provide greater flexibility in the administration of the 2007 Plan and is appropriate in light of the growth of the Company. The increase in the number of shares for which options may be granted under the 2007 Plan would represent approximately 5.5% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company as of March 31, 2008.

Amendment No. 1 to the 2007 Plan is attached as Appendix A to this Proxy Statement.

Plan Summary

Types of Awards and Eligibility. Under the 2007 Plan, we may grant options and restricted stock to our employees, directors and consultants. As of March 31, 2008, we had approximately 313 employees, seven directors and two consultants eligible to participate in the 2007 Plan.

Administration. The 2007 Plan may be administered by the Board of Directors or by a committee (the “Committee”) to which administration of the 2007 Plan, or part of the 2007 Plan, is delegated by the Board of Directors (in either case, the “Administrator”). The Administrator will have the authority, in its discretion: to grant awards (“Awards”); to determine the fair market value of the common stock subject to Awards; to determine the exercise price of options granted; to determine the persons to whom, and the time or times at which, Awards will be granted, and the number of shares subject to each option and/or the number of shares of restricted stock; to interpret the 2007 Plan; to prescribe, amend, and rescind the rules and regulations relating to the 2007 Plan; to determine the terms and provisions of each Award granted; to modify or amend any Award with the consent of the participant; and to make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable for the administration of the 2007 Plan. The Administrator may delegate nondiscretionary administrative duties to employees of the Company as it deems proper.

Stock Subject to the Plan. Currently, the total number of shares of common stock which may be granted as restricted stock and/or issued upon the exercise of options granted pursuant to the 2007 Plan shall not exceed 3,600,000 shares of common stock in the aggregate.

Stock Options. We may grant both incentive stock options (“ISOs”) intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations thereunder (the “Code”), or “nonqualified options” (“NQOs”). The exercise price of NQOs may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of our common stock on the date of the grant, or otherwise determined by the Administrator in good faith based on actual trading data in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. The exercise price of ISOs granted to any person who owns stock representing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all of our common stock or the stock of any of our affiliates may not be less than 110% of the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. The exercise price of all other ISOs will be determined in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Code and may not be less than the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant.

Except with the express written approval of the Administrator with respect to NQOs, options granted under the 2007 Plan are not transferable, otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and, during the lifetime of the option holder, options are exercisable only by an option holder. Unless otherwise provided for by the option agreement or the 2007 Plan, options granted pursuant to the 2007 Plan terminate three months after the date of termination of employment, except that in the event of the death or permanent

8


TABLE OF CONTENTS

disability of the option holder, the option may be exercised by the holder (or the option holder’s representative, as the case may be) until six months after the date of death or permanent disability.

Duration of Options. Options granted under the 2007 Plan will expire no more than ten (10) years from the date on which the option is granted, or such lesser period of time as is set forth in the option agreement. ISOs granted to holders of more than 10% of our common stock will expire no more than five (5) years from the date the option is granted.

Exercise of Options. Options granted under the 2007 Plan vest and become exercisable immediately as of the effective date of the option agreement or in accordance with the schedule set by the Administrator specified in the option agreement relating to such option.

Restricted Stock. The Administrator may grant Restricted Stock to individuals under the 2007 Plan, in such amounts, and subject to such terms and conditions as the Administrator may determine in its sole discretion. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator at the time of the grant, the holder of restricted stock will have the right to vote the restricted stock and to receive dividends, until such shares are forfeited.

Adjustments. Except as otherwise provided for in the 2007 Plan, if the common stock is changed by reason of a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend or recapitalization, combination or reclassification, appropriate adjustments shall be made by the Board of Directors in (i) the number and class of shares of stock subject to the 2007 Plan and each option and restricted stock grant outstanding under the 2007 Plan, and (ii) the exercise price of each outstanding option. In the event of a proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Administrator will notify each participant at least thirty (30) days prior to such proposed action. Except as otherwise permitted by the Administrator, all outstanding options and unvested restricted stock grants will terminate immediately prior to consummation of such proposed action. In the event of a merger or consolidation of the Company in which the Company does not survive, or in the event of a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company in which the stockholders of the Company receive securities of the acquiring entity, all options and restricted stock will be assumed or equivalent awards will be substituted by the successor entity. If the successor entity does not agree to assume the options or restricted stock or to substitute equivalent awards, the Administrator may permit the full vesting or exercise of any of the restricted stock or options prior to consummation of such event.

Federal Income Tax Consequences. We will not, nor will the optionee, recognize taxable income or deduction for federal income tax purposes from the grant or exercise of an ISO. When an optionee sells common stock acquired upon exercise of an ISO, the optionee will be taxed at long-term capital gain rates, if the common stock has been held for at least one year and the option was granted at least two years prior to the date of sale (“Holding Period Requirements”). If the optionee fails to meet the Holding Period Requirements, the difference between the exercise price and the fair market value of the common stock at the time of exercise will be taxable to the optionee as ordinary income and we will be entitled to a deduction equal to the amount of ordinary income recognized by the optionee, if we comply with applicable withholding requirements, and if the amount qualifies as an ordinary and necessary business expense. Although the optionee will not recognize taxable income for federal income tax purposes upon the exercise of an ISO, the difference between the exercise price and fair market value of the common stock at the time of exercise gives rise to an adjustment in calculating alternative minimum taxable income.

We will not, nor will the optionee, recognize taxable income or deduction from the grant of a NQO at fair market value. At the time of exercise of a NQO, the optionee will recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the difference between the exercise price and the fair market value of the common stock. We will be entitled to a deduction for tax purposes in an amount equal to the ordinary income recognized by the optionee, if we comply with applicable tax withholding requirements.

A participant will not have taxable income upon grant of restricted stock unless he or she elects to be taxed at that time. Instead, he or she will recognize ordinary income at the time of vesting equal to the fair market value (on the vesting date) of the common stock received minus any amount paid for the common stock.

Amendment of Plan. The Board of Directors may at any time amend, alter, suspend or discontinue the 2007 Plan. Without the consent of an optionee and/or a participant, no amendment, alteration, suspension or

9


TABLE OF CONTENTS

discontinuance may adversely affect (a) outstanding options except to conform the 2007 Plan and ISOs granted under the 2007 Plan to the requirements of federal or other tax laws relating to incentive stock options and/or (b) restricted stock grants. No amendment, alteration, suspension or discontinuance will require stockholder approval unless (a) stockholder approval is required to preserve incentive stock option treatment for federal income tax purposes or (b) the Board of Directors otherwise concludes that stockholder approval is advisable.

Other Information

The grant of options and restricted Stock under the 2007 Plan is subject to the discretion of the Administrator. As of the date of this Proxy Statement, there has been no determination by the Administrator with respect to future Awards under the 2007 Plan.

The closing price of a share of our common stock as of March 31, 2008 was $1.25 per share.

Changes in Control

On February 12, 2007, the Company consummated a share exchange pursuant to which the Company issued 13,268,997 shares of common stock in exchange for 100% of the outstanding shares of Organic To Go, Inc. capital stock held by the stockholders of Organic To Go, Inc. Concurrently with the share exchange, the Company issued 5,200,000 shares of common stock to investors in a private placement. At the completion of the share exchange and private placement, the former Organic To Go, Inc. stockholders owned 13,268,997 shares, or approximately 67.7%, of the Company’s common stock and the investors in the private placement owned 5,200,000 shares, or approximately 26.5%, of the Company’s common stock.

In addition, in connection with the closing of the share exchange, effective on February 12, 2007, Mark Schaftlein resigned as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and sole director. Immediately thereafter, Messrs. Jason Brown, Dave Smith, Peter Meehan, Roy Bingham, Douglas Lioon and S.M. “Hass” Hassan were appointed as members of the Company’s Board of Directors and Jason Brown was appointed as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President and Secretary, and Jonathan Wernick was appointed as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) requires the executive officers and directors and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a class of securities registered under Section 12 the Exchange Act to file initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership with the SEC. Such officers, directors and stockholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all such reports that they file. Based solely upon the Company’s review of such forms furnished to the Company during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, and written representations from certain reporting persons, the Company believes that its executive officers and directors have complied with the requirements imposed on them by Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act except for Paul Campbell, the Company’s former Chief Financial Officer, and Andrew Jacobs, the Company’s Senior Vice President of Operations, who each neglected to timely file one Form 3 report during the year ended December 31, 2007, relating to their appointments as executive officers of the Company.

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND
FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

On February 27, 2007, our Board of Directors approved the dismissal of De Leon & Company, P.A. (“De Leon & Company”) as our independent registered public accounting firm.

The report of De Leon & Company on our financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, except that the report stated that it was prepared assuming that we would continue as a going concern, as to which our recurring operating losses raised substantial doubt. The reports were not modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

During our fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2006 and the subsequent interim period preceding the termination, we had no disagreements with De Leon & Company on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of De Leon & Company, would have caused De Leon & Company to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its report on the financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006.

Effective February 27, 2007, we engaged Rose, Snyder & Jacobs as our new independent accountants. Rose, Snyder & Jacobs served as the independent public accounting firm for our wholly owned subsidiary, Organic To Go, Inc., for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005. During our two most recent fiscal years and the interim period preceding our engagement of Rose, Snyder & Jacobs, Organic To Go Food Corporation did not consult with Rose, Snyder & Jacobs regarding either: (1) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on our financial statements; or (2) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in paragraph (a)(1)(iv) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K) or a reportable event (as described in paragraph (a)(1)(v) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K).

We provided De Leon & Company with a copy of our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on February 29, 2007, announcing the change in certifying accountants, and requested that De Leon & Company furnish us with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether it agreed with the statements made by us regarding De Leon & Company in the Form 8-K. A copy of De Leon & Company’s letter to the SEC, dated March 7, 2007, was filed as Exhibit 16.1 to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 9, 2007.

INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

On February 27, 2007, we dismissed De Leon & Company as our independent registered accounting firm. On that same date, our Board of Directors appointed Rose, Snyder & Jacobs as our independent registered public accounting firm. Rose, Snyder & Jacobs served as the independent public accounting firm for our wholly owned subsidiary, Organic To Go, Inc., for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005.

REPORT OF AUDIT COMMITTEE

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, the Audit Committee was composed of two non-employee directors, namely, Douglas Lioon and Roy Bingham. The Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Bingham qualifies as an “Audit Committee Financial Expert” as this term has been defined under the rules and regulations of the SEC. To date, no determination has been made as to whether any other member of the Audit Committee qualifies as an Audit Committee Financial Expert. The Audit Committee met four times during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.

The Audit Committee has reviewed with management the audited financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report, including a discussion of the quality, not just the acceptability, of the accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant judgments, and the clarity of disclosures in the financial statements. In addressing the quality of management’s accounting judgments, members of the Audit Committee asked for management’s representations that the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and have expressed to both management and the independent public accountants their general preference for conservative policies when a range of accounting options is available.

The Audit Committee also discussed with the independent public accountants the matters required to be discussed by the statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, as amended (AICPA, Professional Standards, Vol. 1, AU section 380, as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board in Rule 3200T. The Audit Committee received and discussed with the independent public accountants their annual written report on their independence from the Company and its management, which is made under Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1, Independence Discussions with Audit Committees), as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board in Rule 3600T, and considered with the independent public accountants whether the provision of services provided by them to the Company during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 was compatible with the independent public accountants’ independence.

In performing all of these functions, the Audit Committee acts only in an oversight capacity. The Audit Committee reviews the Company’s SEC reports prior to filing and all quarterly earnings announcements in advance of their issuance with management and representatives of the independent public accountants. In its oversight role, the Audit Committee relies on the work and assurances of the Company’s management, which has the primary responsibility for financial statements and reports, including evaluating the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures, and evaluating the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting, and of the independent public accountants, who, in their report, express an opinion on the conformity of the Company’s annual financial statements with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

In reliance on these reviews and discussions, and the report of the independent public accountants, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors, and the Board of Directors approved, that the audited financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, for filing with the SEC.
