Its Been a Year of Milestones for Outdoor Lifestyle

Industry Company NBFog Inc.

AUSTIN, Texas(BUSINESS WIRE)Its been a very busy year for NBFog Inc., brand-building
specialists for the Outdoor Lifestyle industry. January in Las Vegas, the seasoned executive
management team launched a licensing, distribution, brand building marketing agency to help
Outdoor Lifestyle companies better reach the $1 trillion outdoor marketplace.
I could have saved myself a lot frustration over the years if I had BuckscoreTM. The fact that
you can score a deer from a picture and know the result is accurate is a dream come true for
any outdoorsman.
Since then, NBFog has successfully secured more than a dozen premiere partners and clients;
completed a bridge loan investment; became the agency of record for several outdoor lifestyle
companies; nabbed lead biologists Jeremy and Emily Flinn; created the Buckscore Wildlife
Management Division; got the attention of an award-winning outdoor writer and TV host; and
added another avid outdoorsman and proven businessman to its board of directors.
NBFog specializes in finding Outdoor Lifestyle companies or individuals that need licensing,
distribution or brand building assistance. The Outdoor Lifestyle industry is a $1 trillion
marketplace and hunters are a huge part of that market, said Randy Russell, COO and CFO.
We feel that our team of seasoned professionals can develop and implement strategic plans to
take our clients products and services to the next level of success.

Highlights of the year include:

Becomes parent company of BuckscoreTM. BuckscoreTM is a 2-D to 3-D software
program used to estimate antler size from trail camera buck photos or any digital
photograph, developed by registered wildlife biologist and then Mississippi State
University wildlife graduate student Jeremy Flinn, now Buckscores general manager. A
Rocky Mountain Edition, allowing users to score both mule deer and elk, is coming in
late 2011 or early 2012.

Adventures. Shockey will be promoting BuckscoreTM in personal appearances and on
his television show which airs on the Outdoor Channel and Wild TV Hunting and Fishing
Channel, his website and the Jim Shockey Professionals Club. I could have saved
myself a lot frustration over the years if I had BuckscoreTM. The fact that you can score
a deer from a picture and know the result is accurate is a dream come true for any
outdoorsman.

to educate hunters about food plot seed, Buckscore Wildlife Management and
BuckscoreTM whitetail deer technology so they can grow bigger deer.

Completes first round bridge investment. The July bridge round investment allowed
NBFog to focus on executing the business plan, while continuing to deliver value to its
clients and investors. Despite challenging economic times, our investors recognize the
wealth of opportunities in the Outdoor Lifestyle industry. This tells us we are on the right
track, said Russell. Not only do our clients recognize the need for licensing,
