Big Three Restaurants, Inc., (formerly Bella Petrella's Holdings, Inc.,)On November 20, 2012 the Company Signed a Conditional letter of intent to purchase 9-Kentucky Fried Chicken stores, 1-Long John Silver and 1-Taco Bell store housed in 9-separate free standing buildings. Revenues are around $8 million with recently appraised real property totaling over $9 million. The Company can enter this deal by purchasing for cash the 7-Florida Buildings for $4.8 million and it will get owner financing on the Georgia buildings along with owner financing on the one corporation and one LLC which house all the other assets, goodwill, equipment etc....Total purchase price is just under $12 million.


NOW whats interesting is the company just increased the a/s by 2billion (Jan 18, 2013), which is the sign that they got the financing. since its right at the 60 day due diligence, the puzzle is coming together. Now who ever is putting up the cash, is really protected by all the assets (buildings & restaurants).

On July 29, 2007, Mr. Whitman entered a guilty plea for a violation of 18 US Code 157 arising from his forgery of an attorney’s signature(seems like an honest mistake signing in the wrong place with so many places to sign who knows, otherwise he wouldn't have got off this easy, the fine would be more than $1,500, details are not there however the outcome speaks, CEO is not hiding anything made it public info, a real forgery has a 10year sentence and I believe $150K file in federal.) to an attempted bankruptcy petition in Tampa, Florida for Day Spas of America. He paid a $1,500 fine and completed probation on December 29, 2008. From 2005 to 2007, he was a director and president of Caribbean Cuisine, Inc., who operated a sandwich shop which it sold.
