These and other factors may cause expectations to differ.

Effective March 23, 2011, the Company's common stock was forward split, 2 shares for each share issued, pursuant to written consent by a majority of the Company's shareholders. All share references have been adjusted as if the split occurred prior to all periods presented.

ITEM 1:

BUSINESS

GENERAL DEVELOPMENT OF BUSINESS

Chanticleer Holdings, Inc. filed an election to be treated as a business development company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) on May 23, 2005. In connection with this election, we adopted corporate resolutions and operated as a closed-end, non-diversified management investment company and as a business development company (a “BDC”) until this election was revoked, as described below.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Chanticleer Holdings, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Chanticleer Advisors, LLC, (“Advisors”), Avenel Ventures, LLC ("Ventures"), Avenel Financial Services, LLC ("AFS"), Chanticleer Holdings Limited ("CHL") and DineOut SA Ltd. ("DineOut") (the Company sold approximately 7% of DineOut during 2010) collectively referred to as “the Company,” “we,” “us,” or “the Companies”.

Information regarding the Company's subsidiaries is as follows:

Advisors was formed as a Nevada Limited Liability Company on January 18, 2007 to manage related companies, Chanticleer Investors, LLC ("Investors LLC"), Chanticleer Investors II, LLC ("Investors II") and other investments owned by the Company (For additional information, see www.chanticleeradvisors.com.);

Ventures was formed as a Nevada Limited Liability Company on December 24, 2008 to provide business management and consulting services to its clients;

AFS was formed as a Nevada Limited Liability Company on February 19, 2009 to provide unique financial services to the restaurant, real estate development, investment advisor/asset management and philanthropic organizations. The start-up of AFS's business operation has been delayed and is expected to initially include captive insurance, CHIRA and trust services;

CHL was formed as a Limited Liability Company in Jersey on March 24, 2009 and owns the Company's 50% interest in Hooters SA, GP, the general partner of the Hooters restaurant franchises in South Africa;

DineOut was formed as a Private Limited Liability Company in England and Wales on October 29, 2009 to raise capital in Europe.

INVESTMENTS MANAGED

Chanticleer Investors LLC

On April 18, 2006, the Company formed Investors LLC and sold units for $5,000,000. Investors LLC’s principal asset was a convertible note in the amount of $5,000,000 with Hooters of America, Inc. (“HOA”), collateralized by and convertible into 2% of HOA common stock. The original note included interest at 6% and was due May 24, 2009. The note was extended until November 24, 2010 and included an increase in the interest rate to 8%.

The Company owned $1,150,000 (23%) of Investors LLC until May 29, 2009 when it sold 1/2 of its share for $575,000. Under the original arrangement, the Company received 2% of the 6% interest as a management fee ($25,000 quarterly) and 4% interest on its investment ($11,500 quarterly). Under the extended note and revised operating agreement, the Company receives a management fee of $6,625 quarterly and interest income of $11,500 quarterly. The Company sold an additional $75,000 of its investment in December 2010, leaving it with a balance of $500,000 at December 31, 2010.

On January 24, 2011, Investors LLC and its three partners combined to form HOA Holdings, LLC ("HOA LLC") and completed the acquisition of Hooters of America, Inc. ("HOA") and Texas Wings, Inc. ("TW"). Together HOA LLC has created an operating company with 161 company-owned locations across sixteen states, or nearly half of all domestic Hooters restaurants and over one-third of the locations worldwide.

Investors, LLC had a note receivable in the amount of $5,000,000 from HOA that was repaid at closing. Investors LLC then invested $3,550,000 in HOA LLC (approximately 3.1%) ($500,000 of which is the Company's share). One of the investors in Investors LLC that owned a $1,750,000 share is a direct investor in HOA LLC and will now carry its ownership in HOA LLC directly. The Company now owns approximately 14% of Investors LLC.

The Company received a payment of $400,000 at closing for its services in facilitating the acquisition. In addition, for a minimum of four years, the Company will receive annual payments of $100,000 due in January each year while Mr. Pruitt serves on its board.

Chanticleer Investors II, LLC

On July 31, 2006, the Company formed Investors II. Investors II began raising funds in January 2007 for the purpose of investing in publicly traded value securities and has now completed its fourth year of operations with $1,603,869 under management at December 31, 2010.

Chanticleer Dividend Fund, Inc. ("CDF")

On November 10, 2010 the Company formed Chanticleer Dividend Fund, Inc. ("CDF") under the general corporation laws of the State of Maryland. CDF filed a registration statement under Form N-2 to register as a non-diversified, closed-end investment company in January 2011. The Company, through Advisors, will have a role in management of CDF when its registration statement becomes effective.

NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS - SEGMENTS

The Company is organized into two active business segments as of the end of 2010, one of which was added during 2009 and had its initial operations in 2010. The insurance and specialized services segment is inactive at December 31, 2010. The operation of the restaurants in South Africa commenced in 2010. See Note 12 of the consolidated financial statements.

Management and consulting services

The Company provides management and consulting services for small companies which are generally seeking to become publicly traded. The Company also provides management and investment services for Investors LLC and Investors II. The Company will also provide management services to CDF.

Insurance and specialized financial services

We have formed AFS to provide unique financial services to the restaurant, real estate development, investment advisor/asset management and philanthropic organizations. The start-up of AFS's business operation has been delayed and is expected to initially include captive insurance, CHIRA and trust services.

Operation of restaurants (South Africa)

The Company formed CHL to own the Company's 50% general partner interest in Hooters S.A., GP, the general partner of the Hooters' restaurant franchises in South Africa. Each restaurant is being organized as a limited partnership. In the first location in Durban, South Africa, the Hoot SA, LP is structured as follows. CHL owns 50% of the general partner ("GP") interest. The limited partner ("LP") interest is allocated 40% of the total restaurant cash flow (80% of the 50% owned by CHL) until they have received a return of their capital and a pre-tax compounded return on that capital of 20%. After the LP interest has received its return, the LP interest share will reduce to 20% and the GP interest will increase to 80%. CHL initially has a 10% GP interest which will convert to 40% GP interest after the LP payout. The Company sold its LP interest in the Durban location effective February 28, 2010 for its cost of $37,500. Hoot SA II, LP was formed to finance the Johannesburg restaurant, which opened in June 2010, and Hoot SA III, LP was formed to finance the Cape Town restaurant, which is planned to open in the spring of 2011. Both limited partnerships were organized the same way with 20% going to the GP and 80% to the LP until LP payout and 80% to the GP and 20% to the LP after payout.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements contained in this report that are not historical fact are "forward-looking statements" as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words or phrases "will likely result," "are expected to," "will continue," "is anticipated," "believes," "estimates," "projects" or similar expressions are intended to identify these forward-looking statements. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties beyond our reasonable control that could cause our actual business and results of operations to differ materially from those reflected in our forward-looking statements. The safe harbor provisions provided in the Securities Litigation Reform Act do not apply to forward-looking statements we make in this report. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. Our forward-looking statements are based on trends which we anticipate in our industry and our good faith estimate of the effect on these trends of such factors as industry capacity, product demand and product pricing. The inclusion of projections and other forward-looking statements should not be regarded a representation by us or any other person that we will realize our projections or that any of the forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus will prove to be accurate.

Management’s Analysis of Business

The Company currently operates in two principal segments, management services and ownership of restaurant franchises in South Africa. Management services have included management of Investors LLC and Investors II; and will include management services provided to CDF after its registration statement becomes effective. In addition, the Company also provides management services to certain other companies with services generally paid for with common stock.

At December 31, 2010, the Company owned an interest in two restaurants which began operations in 2010 and owned an interest in another restaurant which is under construction and is scheduled to open in the spring of 2011.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had current assets of $158,718 and $60,180; current liabilities of $645,634 and $735,651; and a working capital deficit of $486,916 and $675,471, respectively. The Company incurred a loss of $1,011,565 during the year ended December 31, 2010 and had an unrealized gain from available-for-sale securities of $152,027 resulting in a comprehensive loss of $859,538.

The Company's general and administrative expenses averaged approximately $235,000 per quarter during 2010. The Company expects costs to remain relatively constant in 2011 with probable increases to manage CDF offset by expected management fee income. The Company's share of income from the ownership of the Hooters restaurants in South Africa is also continuing to increase. In addition, the Company has a note for $250,000 owed to its bank which is due in July 2011. The Company plans to continue to use limited partnerships to fund its share of costs for additional Hooters restaurants.

The Company expects to meet its obligations in 2011 with some or all of the following:

The Company holds 3,724,961 shares in DineOut at December 31, 2010, which are free-trading on the Frankfort Exchange and were trading at approximately €1.30 (approximately $1.74) per share at December 31, 2010. The Company plans to continue to sell some of these shares to meet its short-term capital requirements;

The Company received $400,000 in January 2011 when the acquisition of the Hooters restaurants was completed (See Note 15 to the consolidated financial statements);

Extend a portion of its existing line of credit;

Convert its convertible notes payable into common stock (See Note 15 to the consolidated financial statements);

The Company expects to raise all of its cash requirements for the South Africa restaurants from limited partners; and

The Company is funding the initial formation of CDF including the registration of its common stock. The Company expects to get most of its capital outlay back after the registration statement becomes effective (See Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements).

If the above events do not occur or if the Company does not raise sufficient capital, substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern exists. These consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

BUSINESS SEGMENTS

The Company is organized into two active business segments as of the end of 2010, one of which was added during 2009 and had its initial operations in 2010. The financial information about these business segments is included in Note 12 of the consolidated financial statements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenue

Revenue amounted to $136,301 in 2010 and $602,978 in 2009. Cash revenues were $84,218 in 2010 and $74,250 in 2009. Non-cash revenues from management fees include $52,083 in 2010 and included $504,167 in 2009 which was recognized from the receipt of securities for our services. In addition, 2009 included revenues from a related party of $24,000 which was included in bad debt expense in 2010. The majority of our cash revenues are management fees from Investors LLC and Investors II.

The fair value of the equity instruments received was determined based upon the stock prices as of the date we reached an agreement with the third party. The terms of the securities are not subject to adjustment after the measurement date. See Note 3 of the consolidated financial statements for details.

General and Administrative Expense (“G&A”)

G&A amounted to $946,189 in 2010 and $816,198 in 2009. The more significant components of G&A are summarized as follows:

	2010		2009

Professional fees	$	106,594	$	106,379
Payroll		490,690		385,320
Travel and entertainment		42,950		57,120
Accounting and auditing		67,914		59,675
Director fees		42,500		-
Bad debt expense		24,907		-
Other G&A		170,634		207,704
	$	946,189	$	816,198

G&A costs are expected to continue at approximately the same level as 2010, $235,000 per quarter, with the costs associated with the activities of the management services to be provided to CDF increasing. Revenue is expected to exceed this increase in expense.

Payroll costs increased in 2010 due to the addition of two employees to assist the Company in raising funds. Both of these employees have now left the Company.

Effective December 31, 2010, the Company issued 20,000 shares of its common stock to its outside directors for current and prior director fees. The stock was valued at $42,500 based on the closing price of the common stock on that date.

The Company recognized a bad debt in the amount of $24,907 in 2010 for prior management services of $24,000 and expense advances of $907 owed by Green St. Energy, Inc., a company for which the Company previously provided management services.

Deferred acquisition costs

FASB ASC 805-10-25-23 replaced prior guidance and became effective January 1, 2009. Acquisition-related costs are defined as costs the acquirer incurs to effect a business combination and further provides that the acquirer shall account for acquisition-related costs as expenses in the periods in which the costs are incurred and the services received. Pursuant to the Company's planned acquisition of HI, the Company incurred $279,050 in acquisition-related costs which were capitalized in 2008 pursuant to accounting guidance in effect at that time.

FASB ASC 805-10-25-23 applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2008. Accordingly, on January 1, 2009 the Company charged its previously capitalized acquisition costs to expense on that date.

Asset Impairment

In 2010, the Company recorded an impairment of $250,000 for our equity interest in BreezePlay as a result of it not being able to raise sufficient capital to complete its business plan and substantially ceasing operation. In 2009, the Company recorded an impairment of our equity investment in Confluence Partners of $50,000 due to the uncertain SPAC market.

OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE)

Other income (expense) consisted of the following at December 31, 2010 and 2009:

	2010			2009
Other income (expense):
Equity in earnings of investments	$	58,337		$	23,000
Realized gains from sale of investments		106,035			58,697
Interest expense		(140,016	)		(33,914	)
Interest income		46,000			23,000
Miscellaneous income		-			50
Other than temporary decline in available-for-sale securities		(40,386	)		(342,259	)
	$	29,970		$	(271,426	)

Equity in Earnings of Investments

Equity in earnings of investments includes our share of earnings from investments in which we own at least 20% and are being accounted for using the equity method. This included income from the Hoot SA partnerships in 2010 of $58,337 and from Investors of $23,000 in 2009.

Realized Gains from Sale of Investments

Realized gains are recorded when investments are sold and include transactions in 2010 from a gain on sales of DineOut of $157,807, a loss on sales of Vought Defense Systems of $58,355 and a gain on sales of Healthsport of $6,583 and in 2009 from marketable equity securities for $8,697 and a $50,000 gain from the exchange of our oil and gas property investment for marketable equity securities.

Interest Expense

Interest expense increased in 2010 from 2009 primarily due to the addition of convertible notes payable in the amount of $686,500 in 2010.

Interest Income

Interest income includes our earnings from Investors for all of 2010 and in 2009, after we sold 1/2 of our 23% investment in May 2009.

Other than Temporary Decline in Available-for-Sale Securities

The Company determined that its investment in available-for-sale securities had an other than temporary decline in value and recorded a realized loss in the amount of $40,386 and $342,259 in 2010 and 2009, respectively. Valuations were determined based on the quoted market price for the stock on December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

There are several new accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) which are not yet effective. Each of these pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted by the Company. Management does not believe any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or operating results. See Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The SEC has suggested companies provide additional disclosure and commentary on their most critical accounting policies, which they defined as the ones that are most important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and operating results, and require management to make its most difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. Based on this definition our most critical accounting policy is the valuation of our investments. The methods, estimates and judgments we use in applying this accounting policy has a significant impact on the results we report in our financial statements.

We determine fair value to be the amount for which an investment could be exchanged in an orderly disposition over a reasonable period of time between willing parties other than in a forced or liquidation sale. Our evaluation process is intended to provide a consistent basis for determining the fair value of our available-for-sale investments. In summary, for individual securities classified as available-for-sale securities, an enterprise shall determine whether a decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis is other than temporary. If the decline in fair value is judged to be other than temporary, the individual security shall be written down to fair value as a new cost basis and the amount of the write-down shall be included in earnings (accounted for as a realized loss). The new cost basis shall not be changed for subsequent recoveries in fair value. Subsequent increases in the fair value of available-for-sale securities shall be included in other comprehensive income and subsequent decreases in fair value, if not an other-than-temporary impairment, also shall be included in other comprehensive income.

The first step in the analysis is to determine if the security is impaired. All of our available-for-sale securities were listed and we use the closing market price to determine the amount of impairment if any. The second step, if there is an impairment, is to determine if the impairment is other than temporary. To determine if a decline in the value of an equity security is other than temporary and that a write-down of the carrying value is required, we considered the following:

The length of the time and the extent to which the market value has been less than the cost;

The financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, including any specific events which may influence the operations of the issuer such as changes in technology that may impair the earnings potential of the investment or the discontinuance of a segment of the business that may affect the future earnings potential; or

The intent and ability of the holder to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in market value.

Unless evidence exists to support a realizable value equal to or greater than the carrying value of the investment in equity securities classified as available-for-sale, a write-down to fair value accounted for as a realized loss should be recorded. Such loss should be recognized in the determination of net income of the period in which it occurs and the written down value of the investment in the issuer becomes the new cost basis of the investment.

Investments in which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence and that, in general, are at least 20 percent owned are stated at cost plus equity in undistributed net earnings (loss), less distributions received. The Company also has equity investments in which it owns less than 20% which are stated at cost. An impairment loss would be recorded whenever a decline in the value of an equity investment or investment carried at cost is below its carrying amount and is determined to be other than temporary. In judging “other than temporary,” the Company considers the length of time and extent to which the fair value of the investment has been less than the carrying amount of the investment, the near-term and long-term operating and financial prospects of the investee, and the Company’s long-term intent of retaining the investment in the investee.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

Chanticleer Holdings, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Chanticleer Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Chanticleer Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that Chanticleer Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, Chanticleer Holdings, Inc. has incurred substantial net losses and negative cash flows from operations for the past several years, along with negative working capital. In addition, the Company has future plans that may require substantial financial obligations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to generate sufficient cash revenues to fund its current operations and fulfill its future commitments. These conditions raise substantial doubt about Chanticleer Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries’ ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1.	NATURE OF BUSINESS

ORGANIZATION

Chanticleer Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) was organized October 21, 1999, under its original name, Tulvine Systems, Inc., under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company previously had limited operations and was considered a development stage company until July 2005. On April 25, 2005, the Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary, Chanticleer Holdings, Inc. On May 2, 2005, Tulvine Systems, Inc. merged with and changed its name to Chanticleer Holdings, Inc.

Information regarding the Company's subsidiaries is as follows:

Ventures was formed as a Nevada Limited Liability Company on December 24, 2008 to provide business management and consulting services to its clients;

AFS was formed as a Nevada Limited Liability Company on February 19, 2009 to provide unique financial services to the restaurant, real estate development, investment advisor/asset management and philanthropic organizations. AFS's business operation has not been activated and is expected to initially include captive insurance, CHIRA and trust services;

CHL was formed as a Limited Liability Company in Jersey on March 24, 2009 to own the Company's 50% interest in Hooters SA, GP, the general partner of the Hooters restaurant franchises in South Africa;

DineOut was formed as a Private Limited Liability Company in England and Wales on October 29, 2009 to raise capital in Europe.

GOING CONCERN

The Company's general and administrative expenses averaged approximately $235,000 per quarter during 2010. The Company expects cost to remain relatively constant in 2011 with probable increases to manage the new Chanticleer Dividend Fund, Inc. offset by expected management fee income. The Company's share of income from the ownership of the Hooters restaurants in South Africa is also continuing to increase. In addition, the Company has a note for $250,000 owed to its bank which is due in July 2011. The Company plans to continue to use limited partnerships to fund its share of costs for additional Hooters restaurants.

The Company expects to meet its obligations in 2011 with some or all of the following:

The Company received $400,000 in January 2011 when the acquisition of the Hooters restaurants was completed (See Note 15);

Extend a portion of its existing line of credit;

Convert its convertible notes payable into common stock (See Note 15);

The Company expects to raise all of its cash requirements for the South Africa restaurants from limited partners; and

The Company is funding the initial formation of Chanticleer Dividend Fund, Inc., including the registration of its common stock. The Company expects to get most of its capital outlay back after the registration statement becomes effective (See Note 11).

2.	SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates include the valuation of the investments in portfolio companies and deferred tax asset valuation allowances. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company's current source of revenue is from management fees from both affiliated companies and non-affiliated companies. Our revenue recognition policy provides that revenue is generally realized or realizable and earned when all of the following criteria have been met:

Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;

Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered;

The seller's price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and

Collectability is reasonably assured.

We may collect revenue in both cash and in the equity securities of the company to whom we are providing services. Typically when we are paid cash for services, it is based on a monthly fee and is recorded when earned. When we receive equity securities for our management services, we generally receive the securities in advance for our services to be earned over the life of the contract, generally one year. We value these securities and defer recognition of the revenue over the life of the management contract.

MARKETABLE EQUITY SECURITIES

Trading securities

The Company's investment in marketable equity securities are carried at fair value and are classified as current assets in the consolidated balance sheets. Unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, are reported in the statement of operations as unrealized gain (loss) on marketable equity securities. Gains and losses are reported in the consolidated statements of operations when realized, based on the disposition of specifically identified investments, using a first-in, first-out method.

Available-for-sale securities

The Company’s investments in marketable equity securities which are classified as available-for-sale are carried at fair value. Investments available for current operations are classified in the consolidated balance sheets as current assets; investments held for long-term purposes are classified as non-current assets. Unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, are reported in other comprehensive income as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Gains and losses are reported in the consolidated statements of operations when realized, determined based on the disposition of specifically identified investments, using a first-in, first-out method.

Investments identified by the Company as being potentially impaired are subject to further analysis to determine if the impairment is other than temporary. Other than temporary declines in market value from original costs are charged to investment and other income, net, in the period in which the loss occurs. In determining whether investment holdings are other than temporarily impaired, the Company considers the nature, cause, severity and duration of the impairment.

OTHER INVESTMENTS

Investments in which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence and that, in general, are at least 20 percent owned are stated at cost plus equity in undistributed net earnings (loss), less distributions received. The Company also has equity investments in which it owns less than 20% which are stated at cost. An impairment loss would be recorded whenever a decline in the value of an equity investment or cost investment is below its carrying amount and is determined to be other than temporary. In judging “other than temporary,” the Company considers the length of time and extent to which the fair value of the investment has been less than the carrying amount of the investment, the near-term and long-term operating and financial prospects of the investee, and the Company’s long-term intent of retaining the investment in the investee.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

For financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, fair value is the price we would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction with a market participant at the measurement date. In the absence of active markets for the identical assets or liabilities, such measurements involve developing assumptions based on market observable data and, in the absence of such data, internal information that is consistent with what market participants would use in a hypothetical transaction that occurs at the measurement date.

Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our market assumptions. Preference is given to observable inputs. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:

Level 1

Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Level 2

Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.

Level 3

Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable.

We maintain policies and procedures to value instruments using the best and most relevant data available. Our investment committee reviews and approves all investment valuations.

Our available-for-sale equity securities are all valued using Level 1 inputs or Level 2 inputs.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company is required to disclose fair value information about financial instruments when it is practicable to estimate that value. The carrying amounts of the Company’s cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, convertible notes payable and notes payable approximate their estimated fair value due to the short-term maturities of these financial instruments and because related interest rates offered to the Company approximate current rates.

FIXED ASSETS

Fixed assets are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets (generally five and seven years). The carrying amount of all long-lived assets is evaluated periodically to determine if adjustment to the depreciation and amortization period or the unamortized balance is warranted. Based upon its most recent analysis, the Company believes that no impairment of property and equipment exists at December 31, 2010 and 2009. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations when incurred. Betterments and renewals are capitalized. When property and equipment are sold or otherwise disposed of, the asset account and related accumulated depreciation account are relieved, and any gain or loss is included in operations.

INCOME TAXES

Deferred income taxes are provided on the liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. The Company has provided a valuation allowance for the full amount of the deferred tax assets.

As of December 31, 2010 and 2009 the Company had no accrued interest or penalties relating to any tax obligations. The Company currently has no federal or state examinations in progress, nor has it had any federal or state tax examinations since its inception. The last three years of the Company's tax years are subject to federal and state tax examination.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions (including the cost of all employee stock options) is required to be recognized in the financial statements. That cost is measured based on the estimated fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. A wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including share options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans are included. The Company’s financial statements would include an expense for all share-based compensation arrangements granted on or after January 1, 2006 and for any such arrangements that are modified, cancelled or repurchased after that date based on the grant-date estimated fair value.

As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, there were no options outstanding.

EARNINGS (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

The Company is required to report both basic earnings per share, which is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, and diluted earnings per share, which is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus all potentially dilutive shares outstanding. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, there are no potentially dilutive shares outstanding. Accordingly, no common stock equivalents are included in the earnings (loss) per share calculations and basic and diluted earnings per share are the same for all periods presented.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive income and its components (revenues, expenses, gains and losses) in a full set of general-purpose financial statements requires that all items that are required to be recognized under accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. We are required to (a) classify items of other comprehensive income by their nature in financial statements, and (b) display the accumulated balance of other comprehensive income separately in the equity section of the balance sheet for all periods presented.

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

Cash is maintained at financial institutions, which at times, may exceed the FDIC insurance limit.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain reclassifications have been made in the financial statements at December 31, 2009 and for the periods then ended to conform to the December 31, 2010 presentation. The reclassifications had no effect on net loss.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

There are several new accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) which are not yet effective. Each of these pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted by the Company. At March 23, 2011, none of these pronouncements is expected to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

* Investments acquired in exchange for management services.

Special Projects Group - The transaction in which Special Projects Group was involved to acquire an operating company was cancelled and Special Projects became a shell company. During 2009, Special Projects was dropped from the Pink Sheets and the Company determined it was an other than temporary impairment and wrote off its remaining investment in 2009.

Syzygy Entertainment, Ltd. - During 2007, the Company acquired 342,814 shares of Syzygy in exchange for a management services contract which covered a one-year period commencing April 1, 2007. The shares were valued at $1.50 per share, a discount to the listed price at that time. Also during 2007, Mr. Pruitt contributed 300,000 shares of Syzygy Entertainment, Ltd. to the Company, which was valued by the investment committee at $600,000 on the dates contributed. Mr. Pruitt did not receive additional compensation as a result of the transfers.

As a result of the above transactions, the Company owns 642,814 shares of Syzygy with a cost of $1,114,221 and a fair value as of December 31, 2010 of $0. The Company considers this decline in value to be other than temporary and has recognized an impairment loss of $75,852 in 2009 and $1,286 in 2010.

Remodel Auction Incorporated - Remodel Auction Incorporated was formed to launch and operate an online listing service for remodeling projects. The Company received 167 shares of Remodel Auction common stock in exchange for providing management services for one year, effective January 1, 2009. We valued our initial investment of 167 shares at 50% of the price Remodel was receiving from third parties for its stock, $125,000. Remodel Auction began trading under the symbol REMD on August 10, 2009, and the Company received an additional 167 shares of Remodel common stock pursuant to its management agreement. We recorded the additional 167 shares at the trading price of the stock on that date of $900 per share and recognized $150,000 in management income. Remodel Auction began trading on the Pink Sheets, and the market price was readily determinable. Therefore, the Company transferred this investment from investments accounted for by the cost method to available-for-sale securities. The market value of Remodel Auction was approximately the same as the original cost at the time of the transfer. Accordingly, the transfer was recorded at the original cost. At December 31, 2009, the common stock had declined to $120 per share and the Company determined that the loss was other-than temporary and recorded a loss of $235,000 on its investment in Remodel Auction common stock. During 2010, the Company recognized an additional impairment of $39,100. At December 31, 2010, the Company valued its investment at $1,000 and recorded an unrealized gain of $100.

North American Energy Resources, Inc. - During the quarter ended June 30, 2009, the Company exchanged its oil & gas property investments for 700,000 shares of North American Energy Resources, Inc. ("NAEY") which were valued at $126,000 based on the closing price of NAEY on the date of the trade. The Company initially classified the NAEY as a trading security when it was acquired based on the Company's intent to begin selling the shares before the end of 2009. In November 2009 the Company decided that it would not sell the stock in the near term and determined that the investment should be reclassified as an available-for-sale security and classified as non-current, due to uncertainties about when it would be sold. At the time of the decision to reclassify the investment as available-for-sale, the trading price and value were approximately equal to the cost. Accordingly, upon the transfer at fair value, the shares were transferred at $126,000, the original cost to the Company. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the stock had declined to $0.04 and $0.06 per share and the Company recorded an unrealized loss of $98,000 and $84,000, respectively, based on the Company's determination that the price decline was temporary.

During the first quarter of 2010, the Company received an additional 150,000 shares of NAEY in exchange for management services. The shares were initially valued at $10,500, based on the trading price at the time. At December 31, 2010, the Company recorded an unrealized loss of $4,500 based on the market value of $6,000.

NAEY appointed a new management team in December 2010 and appears to have an opportunity for the stock price to recover. Accordingly, the Company determined that the decline was temporary.

Vought Defense Systems Corp. - On May 31, 2006, we acquired debt owed by Atlas Defense Systems, Inc. ("ADS") and formerly Vought Defense Systems Corp. ("VDSC") (formerly, Lifestyle Innovations, Inc.) with a face value of $1,177,395 for $100,000 in cash. Lifestyle has traded under the symbol LFSI and has only had a deminimus amount of income from a royalty during the last three years. LFSI is not currently a reporting company. The debt was converted into a note with interest at 12% on July 1, 2008. We owned approximately 28% of the debt of LFSI at December 31, 2009. LFSI was valued at approximately $400,000 as a shell, ($100,000 for the Company's interest) based on estimates provided by an attorney knowledgeable in the area.

On February 16, 2010, a majority of the shareholders of LFSI approved a name change to Vought Defense Systems Corp. and a 1 for 545 reverse stock split of the issued shares of common stock. On February 17, 2010, VDSC acquired 100% of RedTide Defense Group, Inc. ("RedTide") which has created a solution to a growing worldwide demand for the manufacturing of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles ("UAVs"). RedTide owns and operates www.redtidedefense.com. The Company's debt was converted into 449,959 shares of VDSC common stock. The Company sold all of its shares for total proceeds of $41,645 and recorded a loss of $58,355 during the last three quarters of 2010.

EffTec International, Inc. - Effective April 1, 2010, the Company's CEO became a director and the CEO of EffTec International, Inc. The Company received 150,000 shares of EffTec and an option to acquire an additional 150,000 shares at $0.15 per share in exchange for the management services to be provided. The shares were valued at $22,500 based on the trading price of EffTec at the date of the transaction. At December 31, 2010, the shares were valued at $0.30 per share and the $22,500 increase in value plus the value of the option of $22,500 was included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

EffTec has developed a powerful, easy to use, Internet-based chiller tool called EffTrack™ that:

Collects, stores and analyzes chiller operating data,

Calculates and trends chiller performance,

Diagnoses the cause of chiller inefficiencies,

Notifies plant contacts when problems occur,

Recommends corrective actions,

Measures the results of corrective actions and

Provides cost analysis of operational improvements.

Chillers are the single largest energy-using component in most industrial or commercial type facilities using water-cooled chillers for comfort or process cooling and can consume up to 50% of the facility’s electrical usage. There is a vast array of operational and mechanical problems that occur causing a chiller to lose performance. Even small inefficiencies can result in thousands of dollars in energy waste.

HiTech Stages, Ltd. - HiTech Stages, Ltd. ("HiTech") is registered in the UK and is listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (Symbol "JT2.F"). HiTech, in conjunction with a manufacturer, has developed a mobile event stage, including multimedia, which can be packed in three 20' x 8' x 8' containers. The stage can be fully assembled in less than one hour and deployed and operational in ten minutes, including the set-up of all lighting, sound and video systems. This is a revolutionary first in the event business and will rent for approximately one-half of the cost of conventional stage systems. HiTech is in its initial funding stage and intends to raise up to $5.5 million to finance the manufacture of the first stage and build the distribution support services.

The Company acquired 275,000 shares of HiTech in exchange for 150,450 shares of DineOut. The transaction was initially recorded as an available-for-sale security at the average net sales price of DineOut shares of $124,573. At December 31, 2010, HiTech closed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange at €1.00 ($1.34). Due to the start-up status of HiTech and limited trading volume, the Company valued its investment at $250,000 at December 31, 2010.

Hooters S.A., GP - The Company formed CHL to own the Company's 50% general partner interest in Hooters S.A., GP, the general partner of the Hooters' restaurant franchises in South Africa. The initial restaurant opened in December 2009 in Durban, South Africa and operations commenced in January 2010. In the initial restaurant CHL has a 10% interest in restaurant cash flows until the limited partners receive payout and a 40% interest in restaurant cash flows after limited partner payout. The second location opened in Johannesburg in June 2010 and a third location is planned to open in Cape Town in the spring of 2011.

Chanticleer Investors LLC - the Company reduced its interest in Investors LLC during 2009 and transferred the remaining investment to investments accounted for under the cost method at that time. The Company recorded $23,000 in earnings from equity investments and received a distribution of $23,000 before it sold 1/2 of its interest for the book value of $575,000. See Investments accounted for under the cost method below for additional details.

First Choice Mortgage - this partnership discontinued operations at the end of 2008 and a final distribution of $41,371 was received in 2009.

Confluence Partners - the Company formed a partnership in which it owned 50% and its partner owned 50%. Each partner contributed $50,000 and the resulting $100,000 was invested with a group that raises funds for a SPAC. The SPAC was delayed due to the current market conditions and the Company elected to fully impair its investment at December 31, 2009 due to these uncertainties.

INVESTMENTS ACCOUNTED FOR USING THE COST METHOD

Investments at cost consist of the following at December 31, 2010 and 2009:

	2010		2009

Chanticleer Investors, LLC	$	500,000	$	575,000
Edison Nation LLC (FKA Bouncing Brain Productions)		250,000		250,000

Chanticleer Investors II		16,598		16,598
	$	766,598	$	1,191,598

Chanticleer Investors LLC - The Company sold 1/2 of its investment in Investors LLC in May 2009, which reduced its ownership from 23% to 11.5%. Accordingly, in May 2009, the Company discontinued accounting for this investment using the equity method and began to account for the investment using the cost method. In December 2010, the Company sold an additional $75,000 of its investment at cost.

On April 18, 2006, the Company formed Investors LLC and sold units for $5,000,000. Investors LLC’s principal asset is a convertible note in the amount of $5,000,000 with Hooters of America, Inc. (“HOA”), collateralized by and convertible into 2% of Hooters common stock. The original note included interest at 6% and was due May 24, 2009. The note was extended until November 24, 2010 and included an increase in the interest rate to 8%.

EE Investors, LLC - On January 26, 2006, we acquired an investment in EE Investors, LLC with cash in the amount of $250,000. We acquired 1,205 units (3.378%) in EE Investors, LLC, whose sole asset is 40% of Edison Nation, LLC (formerly Bouncing Brain Productions, LLC). Edison Nation was formed to provide equity capital for new inventions and help bring them to market. The initial business plan included developing the products and working with manufacturers and marketing organizations to sell the products. This has evolved into a less hands-on program which involves selling products with patents to other larger companies and retaining royalties. Edison Nation has now reached cash flow break-even, and in addition has been retained by a number of companies for which they do product searches to supplement its business. Edison Nation has repaid the majority of its debt and expects to begin making distributions to its owners during 2011. Based on the current status of this investment, the Company does not consider the investment to be impaired.

BreezePlay, Inc. - BreezePlay™ LLC (“BreezePlay”), headquartered in Charlotte, NC, was an energy solutions provider serving the needs of residents and utilities via partnership programs with major utilities. BreezePlay offered a proprietary monitoring system called EnviroScape™, which was the only residential consumer energy management product on the market that monitors residential energy consumption 24/7 to provide actual usage and rate data, and that enables customers the ability to automatically adjust systems to effect consumption and automate savings. We valued the 250,000 shares we received in BreezePlay at $250,000, the price at which BreezePlay was selling its common stock to unrelated parties. We received the shares in exchange for management services which were provided from February 1, 2009 through January 31, 2010. We recognized eleven months of income in 2009 and recognized the remaining balance in 2010. BreezePlay was unable to complete its funding to establish its business plan and based on the Company's analysis determined to fully impair its investment at December 31, 2010.

Vought Defense Systems Corp. - On May 31, 2006, we acquired debt owed by Vought Defense Systems Corp. ("VDSC") (formerly, Lifestyle Innovations, Inc.) with a face value of $1,177,395 for $100,000 in cash. Lifestyle has traded under the symbol LFSI and has only had a deminimus amount of income from a royalty during the last three years. LFSI is not currently a reporting company. The debt was converted into a note with interest at 12% on July 1, 2008. We owned approximately 28% of the debt of LFSI at December 31, 2009. LFSI was valued at approximately $400,000 as a shell, ($100,000 for the Company's interest) based on estimates provided by an attorney knowledgeable in the area.

On February 16, 2010, a majority of the shareholders of LFSI approved a name change to Vought Defense Systems Corp. and a 1 for 545 reverse stock split of the issued shares of common stock. The Company's debt was converted into 449,959 shares of VDSC common stock in March 2010. In March 2010, the stock was transferred to available-for-sale securities and by the end of 2010, the Company had sold all of its shares for proceeds of $41,645 and recognized a loss of $58,355.

The conversion price was below the market price of our common stock on the date the convertible notes were issued. Accordingly, $56,660 of the proceeds were allocated to the intrinsic value of the conversion feature by crediting additional paid in capital and charging interest expense, since the notes were immediately convertible. The effective interest rate including the beneficial conversion feature was 24.8% in 2010. All of the convertible notes were converted to our common stock effective March 30, 2011.

7.	ACQUISITION RELATED COSTS

FASB ASC 805-10-25-23 replaced prior guidance and became effective January 1, 2009. Acquisition-related costs are defined as costs the acquirer incurs to effect a business combination.

14.	DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized in the following tables according to FASB ASC 820 pricing levels.

	Fair Value Measurement Using
			Quoted prices
			in active		Significant
			markets of		other		Significant
			identical		observable		Unobservable
	Recorded		assets		inputs		Inputs
	value		(Level 1)		(Level 2)		(Level 3)

December 31, 2010
Assets:

December 31, 2009
Assets:
Available-for-sale securities	$	83,286	$	83,286	$	-	$	-

At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company's available-for-sale equity securities were valued using Level 1 and Level 2 inputs as summarized above. Level 1 inputs are based on unadjusted prices for identical assets in active markets that the Company can access. Level 2 inputs are based on quoted prices for similar assets other than quoted prices in Level 1, quoted prices in markets that are not yet active, or other inputs that are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets.

The Company does not have any investments that are measured on a recurring basis using Level 3 inputs.

Certain assets are not carried at fair value on a recurring basis, including investment accounted for under the equity and cost methods. Accordingly, such investments are only included in the fair value hierarchy disclosure when the investment is subject to re-measurement at fair value after initial recognition and the resulting re-measurement is reflected in the consolidated financial statements.

In 2010, the Company considered a cost basis investment to be impaired and recognized an impairment loss of $250,000 in the consolidated statement of operations. In 2009, the Company considered an equity method investment to be impaired and recognized an impairment loss of $50,000 in the consolidated statement of operations. These impairments were determined using Level 3 inputs to determine the estimated fair value, which was determined to be less than the recorded amounts.

See Note 3 for further details of the Company's investments.

ITEM 9:

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

ITEM 9A(T): CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

Under the PCAOB standards, a control deficiency exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit the attention by those responsible for oversight of the company's financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), as of December 31, 2010. Our management has determined that, as of the date of this report, and with the assistance of a third party consultant who has been engaged to assist the Company in preparing its financial statements and its filings with the SEC the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

Management's report on internal control over financial reporting

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Company's internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company's management and Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements in accordance with the United States' generally accepted accounting principles (US GAAP), including those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and disposition of the assets of the Company, (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with US GAAP and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company, and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework established by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) as set forth in its Internal Control - Integrated Framework. Based on our evaluation under the framework in Internal Control - Integrated Framework, our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2010.

This annual report does not include an audit or attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding our internal control over financial reporting. Our management's report was not subject to audit or attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management's report in this annual report.

There were no significant changes in internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls during the quarter ended December 31, 2010.
