PART I


ITEM 1.  BUSINESS


History


Bionik Laboratories Corp. (“Bionik”, “the Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”)   was incorporated on January 8, 2010 in the State of Colorado. At the time of our incorporation the name of our company was Strategic Dental Management Corp.  On July 16, 2013, the Company changed its name from Strategic Dental Management Corp. to Drywave Technologies, Inc. and changed its state of incorporation from Colorado to Delaware. Effective February 13, 2015, we filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware a Certificate of Amendment to our Articles of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Amendment”) whereby, among other things, we changed our name to Bionik Laboratories Corp. and reduced the authorized number of shares of Common Stock from 200,000,000 to 150,000,000. Additionally, on September 24, 2014, our stockholders approved a 1-for-0.831105 reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of our Common Stock, and adopted an equity incentive plan. The reverse stock split was implemented on February 13, 2015.


On February 26, 2015, we entered into an Investment Agreement with Bionik Acquisition Inc., a company existing under the laws of Canada and  our wholly owned subsidiary (“Acquireco”), and Bionik Laboratories, Inc. (“Bionik Canada”) (the “Investment Agreement”), whereby we acquired 100 Class 1 common shares of Bionik Canada representing 100% of the outstanding Class 1 common shares of Bionik Canada, taking into account the Exchangeable Share Transaction (as defined below) (the “Acquisition Transaction”). After giving effect to the Acquisition Transaction, we commenced operations through Bionik Canada.


Bionik Canada was incorporated on March 24, 2011 under the Canada Business Corporations Act. Bionik Canada’s principal executive office is located at 483 Bay Street, N105, Toronto, ON Canada M5G 2C9 and its telephone number is (416) 640-7887. Our website address is www.bioniklabs.com .


Immediately prior to the closing of the Acquisition Transaction and the First Closing (as defined below), we transferred all of the business, properties, assets, operations and goodwill of the Company (other than cash and cash equivalents), and liabilities as of March 6, 2013, to our then-existing wholly owned subsidiary, Strategic Dental Alliance, Inc., a Colorado corporation (“Strategic Dental Alliance”), and then transferred all of the capital stock of Strategic Dental Alliance to Brian E. Ray, a former officer and existing director (through March 20, 2015) and Jon Lundgreen, a former officer and director, pursuant to a Spin-Off Agreement (the “Spin-Off Agreement”). Also as of immediately prior to the closing of the Acquisition Transaction and the First Closing, we entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Tungsten 74 LLC, pursuant to which Tungsten 74 LLC assumed all of our remaining liabilities through the closing of the Acquisition Transaction (the “Assignment and Assumption Agreement”). Accordingly, as of the closing of the Acquisition Transaction and the First Closing, we had no assets or liabilities.


As a condition of the closing of the Acquisition Transaction, Bionik Canada created a new class of exchangeable shares (the “Exchangeable Shares”), which were issued to the existing common shareholders of Bionik Canada in exchange for all of their outstanding common shares, all of which were cancelled (the “Exchangeable Share Transaction”).


Pursuant to the rights and privileges of the Exchangeable Shares, the holders of such Exchangeable Shares maintain the right to (i) received dividends equal to, and paid concurrently with, dividends paid by the Company to the holders of Common Stock; (ii) vote, through the Trustee’s voting of the Special Voting Preferred Stock (as defined herein) on all matters that the holders of Common Stock are entitled to vote upon; and (iii) receive shares of  Common Stock upon the liquidation or insolvency of the Company upon the redemption of such Exchangeable Shares by Acquireco.




5



As part of the Exchangeable Share Transaction, we entered into the following agreements, each dated February 26, 2015:

·

Voting and Exchange Trust Agreement (the “Trust Agreement”) with Bionik Canada and Computershare Trust Company of Canada (the “Trustee”); and

·

Support Agreement (the “Support Agreement”) with Acquireco and Bionik Canada.


Pursuant to the terms of the Trust Agreement, the parties created a trust for the benefit of its beneficiaries, which are the holders of the Exchangeable Shares, enabling the Trustee to exercise the voting rights of such holders until such time as they choose to redeem their Exchangeable Shares for shares of the common stock of the Company, and allowing the Trustee to hold certain exchange rights in respect of the Exchangeable Shares.


As a condition of the Trust Agreement and prior to the execution thereof, we filed a Certificate of Designation with the Delaware Secretary of State, effective February 20, 2015, designating a class of our preferred shares as The Special Voting Preferred Stock (the “Special Voting Preferred Stock”) and issued one share of The Special Voting Preferred Stock to the Trustee.


The Special Voting Preferred Stock entitles the Trustee to exercise the number of votes equal to the number of Exchangeable Shares outstanding on a one-for-one basis during the term of the Trust Agreement. The Trust Agreement further sets out the terms and conditions under which holders of the Exchangeable Shares are entitled to instruct the Trustee as to how to vote during any stockholder meetings of our company.


Pursuant to the terms of the Trust Agreement, we granted the Trustee the right to require our Company to purchase the Exchangeable Shares from any beneficiary upon the occurrence of certain events including in the event that we are bankrupt, insolvent or our business is wound up. The Trust Agreement continues to remain in force until the earliest of the following events: (i) no outstanding Exchangeable Shares are held by any beneficiary under the Trust Agreement; and (ii) each of Bionik Canada and us elects to terminate the Trust Agreement in writing and the termination is approved by the beneficiaries.


Pursuant to the terms of the terms of the Support Agreement, we agreed to certain covenants while the Exchangeable Shares were outstanding, including: (i) not to declare or pay any dividends on our common stock unless simultaneously declaring the equivalent dividend for the holders of the Exchangeable Shares, (ii) advising Bionik Canada in advance of any dividend declaration by our company, (iii) ensure that the record date for any dividend or other distribution declared on the shares of the Company is not less than seven days after the declaration date of  such dividend or other distribution; (iv) taking all actions reasonably necessary to enable Bionik Canada to pay and otherwise perform its obligations with respect to the issued and outstanding Exchangeable Shares, (iv) to ensure that shares of the Company are delivered to holders of Exchangeable Shares upon exercise of certain redemption rights

set out in the agreement and in the rights and restrictions of the Exchangeable Shares, and (v) reserving for issuance and keeping available from our authorized common stock such number of shares as may be equal to: (A) the number of Exchangeable Shares issued and outstanding from time to time; and (B) the number of Exchangeable Shares issuable upon the exercise of all rights to acquire Exchangeable Shares from time to time.


The Support Agreement also outlines certain restrictions on our ability to issue any dividends, rights, options or warrants to all or substantially all of our stockholders during the term of the agreement unless the economic equivalent is provided to the holders of Exchangeable Shares. The Support Agreement is governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario.


Concurrently with the closing of the Acquisition Transaction and in contemplation of the Acquisition Transaction, we sold 7,735,750 units (the “Units”) for gross proceeds of $6,188,600 (including $500,000 of outstanding bridge loans converted into Units at the offering price) at a purchase price of $0.80 per Unit (the “Purchase Price”) in a private placement offering (the “Offering”). Each Unit consists of one share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) and a warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase one share of Common Stock at an initial exercise price of $1.40 per share (the “Warrant Shares”). The Common Stock and Warrants were sold to each subscriber of the Offering pursuant to a Subscription Agreement (“Subscription Agreement”).

 



6



The Offering was being offered with a minimum offering amount of $6,000,000 (the “Minimum Offering Amount”) and up to a maximum offering amount of $12,800,000 (subject to an overallotment option). Once the Minimum Offering amount was reached and held in escrow and other conditions to closing were satisfied (including the simultaneous closing of the Acquisition Transaction), the Company and the placement agent were able to conduct a first closing (the “First Closing”). Pursuant to the terms of a Registration Rights Agreement, we have agreed to file a registration statement on Form S-1 (or any other applicable form exclusively for the Offering) (the “Registration Statement”) registering for resale under the Securities Act all of the shares of Common Stock sold in the Offering and Warrant Shares underlying the Warrants within ninety days after the First Closing and we have agreed to use our commercially reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective within one hundred eighty days of the First Closing. As a result of the Offering, after payment of placement agent fees and expenses but before the payment of other offering expenses such as legal and accounting expenses, we received net proceeds of approximately $5,383,734 at the First Closing, including the $500,000 in bridge loans we previously received that were taken into account as part of the Minimum Offering Amount.


As of the Acquisition Transaction and the First Closing, an aggregate of 90,575,126 shares of our Common Stock were deemed cancelled, of which 90,207,241 were held by our former Chief Executive Officer and current Senior Vice President.


Immediately following the Acquisition Transaction, the Exchangeable Share Transaction and the First Closing, there were 63,735,750 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding of which 6,000,000 were held by existing stockholders, 7,735,750 were held by the investors in the Offering and Bionik Canada shareholders held an equivalent of 50,000,000 shares of our common stock through their ownership of 100% of the Exchangeable Shares. Furthermore, up to 1,905,700 shares of our Common Stock were, as of such date, subject to forfeiture in the event we were unable to raise additional gross proceeds of $3,811,400 in the Offering.


On March 27, 2015, we sold to accredited investors in a second closing, 1,212,500 Units for gross proceeds of $970,000 at the Purchase Price. The Common Stock and Warrants were sold to each subscriber of the Offering pursuant to a Subscription Agreement. After payment of placement agent fees and expenses but before the payment of other Offering expenses such as legal and accounting expenses, we received net proceeds of $828,900.

 

On March 31, 2015, we sold to accredited investors in a third closing of the Offering, 891,250 Units for gross proceeds of $713,000 at the Purchase Price. The Common Stock and Warrants were sold to each subscriber of the Offering pursuant to a Subscription Agreement. After payment of placement agent fees and expenses but before the payment of other offering expenses such as legal and accounting expenses, the Registrant received net proceeds of $620,310.


Through April 13, 2015, we have raised in the Offering aggregate gross proceeds of $7,871,600.  As a result, our pre-Acquisition Transaction stockholders hold approximately 9% of our issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, the former stockholders of Bionik Canada hold approximately 76% of our issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock through their ownership of 100% of the Exchangeable Shares, and the investors in the Offering hold approximately 15% of our issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock.


Description of Business

Following the closing of the Acquisition Transaction, we became a medical device company, specializing in the designing, developing and commercializing of cost-effective physical rehabilitation technologies, prosthetics, and assisted robotic products. We strive to innovate and build devices that improve an individual’s health, comfort, accessibility and quality of life through the use of advanced algorithms and sensing technologies that anticipate a user’s every move.


Our co-founders, Mr. Michal Prywata and Mr. Thiago Caires, first conceived of a brain-controlled prosthetic device in 2009. Media and industry response sparked further innovation leading to the formation of Bionik Canada and development of our first commercial product, the ARKE lower body exoskeleton.




7



Since our founding, we have partnered with industry leaders in manufacturing and design and have also expanded our development team through partnerships with researchers and academia. From inception to immediately prior to the First Closing, we have secured cash funding of approximately $5.5 million, which includes grants as well as Scientific Research and Experimental Development tax refunds provided through the Canadian government that support our creation of technologies that could lower the costs of medical devices and medical care.


We are currently developing the ARKE and researching two earlier stage products, the APOLLO intelligent prosthetic knee and the CHRONOS cloud-based intelligent patient queuing system. We plan to develop other biomechatronic solutions through internal research and development and we may further augment our product portfolio through strategic and accretive acquisition opportunities in the future.


We currently hold an intellectual property portfolio that includes 5 U.S. and international patents pending, 13 U.S. provisional patents, and other patents under development.  The provisional patents may not be filed as full patents and new provisional patents may be filed as the technology evolves or changes.


Product Pipeline


ARKE


The ARKE is a robotic lower body exoskeleton designed to help wheelchair bound individuals suffering from spinal cord injuries, strokes and other mobility disabilities restore proper gait and walk again during the rehabilitation process.  We expect that the ARKE will complement or replace existing rehabilitation methods by giving the patient control and increasing feedback during the rehabilitation process. Further, being able to walk during rehabilitation potentially reduces bone density loss, muscle atrophy, secondary illness and the frequency of re-hospitalization, while potentially helping to increase blood flow and nutrient delivery throughout the body.


We believe that the ideal candidate for the ARKE rehabilitation therapy is a level T6 spinal cord injury patient with paralysis below the chest but maintains some or all upper body strength and mobility, although we believe any incomplete paraplegic (meaning a paraplegic with some healthy nerves remaining after the spinal cord damage that allows for no more than partial paralysis of hands, arms and upper torso) can benefit from the rehabilitation that the ARKE is expected to provide.


The ARKE uses sensory technology to determine at all times a user’s movements, such as bending forward and weight shifts from side to side. This sensory system allows the exoskeleton to determine precisely the movement needed by the user, including when the user wants to walk, stop, climb stairs, sit down or stop.


We have developed the ARKE to be electronically adjustable by a clinician or a rehabilitation specialist to attend to a patient’s specific needs and provide for customized rehabilitation plans. Additionally, the ARKE will have the capability to interface with the provided tablet computer to allow the clinician or a rehabilitation specialist to program, change, edit and select different features within the ARKE system platform, such as selecting or saving a patient’s profile, adjusting the rehabilitation movement speed or walking gait. The tablet interface is designed to allow for the staff to be in close proximity to the user, allowing for them to closely monitor the ARKE at all times during use, making the process safer, more reliable and responsible for making post session data analysis.


Stroke rehabilitation and other similar disability rehabilitation programs deal with patients that do not necessarily have spinal cord damage and that may possess the ability to generate some sort of lower-body motion. Accordingly, we intend on developing a version of the ARKE for stroke patients with partial assist, that is expected to allow stroke patients that have restricted or no motion in one or both legs to wear the product and experience normal weight bearing rehabilitation to walk. We anticipate that the ARKE software platform will also be programmed to assist with the rehabilitation of other disabilities in the future such as cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis and spinal bifida.


We also intend on developing additional accessories for the ARKE that can improve the rehabilitation process along with the clinician’s or rehabilitation specialist’s interaction with the patient. We feel that improving the staff interaction with the patient is an important leap forward for the industry and incorporating a tablet interface to the



8



ARKE was our first innovative step in this regard. We intend on improving real time interactions between the staff and the patient that can simulate resistance experienced during the rehabilitation process, as well as improving product controls.


Mobility impairment affects an estimated 10 million people in developed countries, of which there is an estimated 5 million potential ARKE users in those markets. We believe that the ARKE can be used to assist in the rehabilitation of those patients with mobility in their arms for stability.


Early Stage Research Products


The APOLLO and CHRONOS are early stage research and development products.


The APOLLO is a microprocessor-driven, above the knee prosthetic designed to provide a user with a natural fluidity and walking gait. Through the use of its microprocessor and provisional patent pending magnetic fluid linear dampener to power the knee joint, it is being designed to sense motion and steps, thereby allowing the user to potentially walk naturally by increasing and decreasing the dampening in the knee joint.


Of the approximately 185,000 above the knee amputations in the U.S. annually, we estimate that approximately 60,000 patients could benefit if and when APOLLO is developed by the Company.


CHRONOS is a cloud-based, intelligent patient queuing system with predictive technology, designed to reduce patient waiting time to see health care providers, whether in waiting rooms in hospitals, clinics, private physician practice or otherwise. It is designed to allow patients to check in with their health care provider through their smartphone, allowing them to monitor the number of patients ahead of them along with an estimated wait time so the patient will know approximately when to come back to see their health care provider. We are aiming for CHRONOS to address productivity loss due to long waiting times, which is a frequent complaint of patients visiting their healthcare providers.


CHRONOS targets waiting rooms in hospitals, clinics, private physician practice or otherwise. We estimate that there is a $6.5 billion yearly productivity loss in the U.S. and Canada caused by patients waiting to see their doctors. CHRONOS could reduce this loss by improving on average admittance times, average additional waiting times and average total times. We intend on marketing CHRONOS through distribution channels and we have not identified the full market potential or acceptance of such products or other market verticals. We believe that value added products such as CHRONOS can improve the overall healthcare markets in public sectors such as Canada, and in the private sector such as the U.S.; such products could increase the flow of patients and overall satisfaction rates.


Other Prospective Products


We intend to expand our product offerings and enhance the strength of our Company through, not only internal development, but also strategic and accretive partnerships or acquisitions from time to time.


Competition and Competitive Advantage


The medical technology equipment industry is characterized by strong competition and rapid technological change. There are a number of companies developing technologies that are competitive to our existing and proposed products, many of them, when compared to our Company, having significantly longer operational history and greater financial and other resources.


The ARKE faces competition from companies that are focused on technologies for rehabilitation of patients suffering from spinal cord injuries, stroke and related neurological disabilities. Our competitors that we expect to compete with the ARKE in spinal cord rehabilitation therapies include Rewalk Robotics, Ekso Bionics, and Rex Bionics, each of which sell over-ground, weight bearing exoskeletons. Additionally, Parker Hannifin has



9



announced plans to sell over-ground exoskeletons beginning in 2015. For the stroke market, we are developing an assisted version of the ARKE, which we expect will compete with Cyberdyne’s over-ground exoskeletons and Hocoma, AlterG, Aretech, Ekso Bionics, Parker Hannifin and Reha Technology, who are each selling treadmill-based walking gait therapies.


We believe that the ARKE’s primary advantage over the aforementioned products is that it has been designed to facilitate a selling price, which we believe is more affordable to the market than competing products. When comparing the ARKE to treadmill-based products available to the rehabilitation market, the ARKE has a smaller footprint, uses standard power sources, does not need any special infrastructure and is expected to be more affordable. Importantly, the ARKE is able to mobilize pre or non-ambulatory patients as it is a full weight-bearing product. The ARKE is also expected to be significantly less expensive compared to competitors in the spinal cord rehabilitation market for over-ground exoskeleton products. Additional advantages include our patented patient profiling system, and 3D trigger point system.


From inception, our developments and proposed products were focused on the medical market. We have also developed our products to reflect current market acceptance, including proper pricing, ease of use, global reach by innovative design and finally outstanding turnaround in product development, revisions and versions. We believe that we are the company among our competitors with by far the shortest time to market strategy. Rewalk Robotics was founded in 2001 and launched its product into the home market in 2014, 13 years later. We were founded about 4 years ago and have products in pre-clinical testing. Ekso Bionics was founded almost 10 years ago. We expect our innovative approach to result in low cost of goods and allow us to sell products superior to our competition’s products at less than half of the cost. We do not only focus on cost but also on quality, as we believe that our exoskeleton is the strongest exoskeleton in the medical market, giving patients the support they need to take steps that one by one, will change their life.


Our challenge will be achieving rapid market awareness and adoption of our emerging technology in rehabilitation and mobility centers throughout the U.S., Canada and any other market we may enter. Robotic exoskeleton technology and its use in clinical settings is a new but emerging industry and currently regulated by medical device regulatory agencies (such as the US Food and Drug Administration). We believe that we will face challenges of increased regulatory scrutiny, possible changes in regulator’s requirements, meeting quality control standards of various government regulators, increased competition in the future based on new technologies, additional features and customizability, reduced pricing, clinical outcomes and other factors. Our strength in this market will depend on our ability to achieve market acceptance, develop new technologies, develop new products, implement production plans, develop marketing strategies, secure any necessary regulatory approvals, secure necessary data for reimbursement, protect our intellectual property and have sufficient funding to meet all these challenges.


The market for the Company’s other prospective products also has competition and is subject to rapid technological change and regulatory requirements. There can be no assurance that the Company will be in a stronger position to respond quickly to potential acquisitions and other market opportunities, new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements. Market disruption will be caused when new products or brands are able to differentiate from the rest of market. Failure to maintain and enhance our competitive position could materially adversely affect the business and our prospects.


Market Strategy


The ARKE is designed to be a rehabilitation tool for hospitals and clinics and potentially a personal rehabilitation tool so paraplegics and other walking disabled individuals could benefit from using ARKE at home. We have split the exoskeleton robotic market into two sub-markets:

 

·

The rehabilitation market for hospitals and clinics; and


·

The home market for personal use.

 

We are currently completing the safety testing and general proof of concept testing which we began in mid-2013. We have also prepared clinical trial protocols, which will test the product on paraplegic patients and gauge the medical benefits and other parameters. We anticipate receiving clearance within approximately 6 months of completing the clinical trials.



10



 Our initial go-to-market strategy will be the development of hospital and clinic relationships that will allow us to diffuse the technology among experts and patients. Initially, the hospitals and clinics selected for the clinical trials will be selected to promote and support the ARKE product. We are also seeking different government grants in collaboration with various hospitals and clinics to allow us to partially fund trials, research projects and upgrade the ARKE’s technology. We expect to gain traction among the doctors and experts involved in the distribution and buying groups that are established within those selected partner hospitals. We may also conduct clinical trials in other countries for the purpose of gaining traction in those markets, though we have no current plans to do so.

 

During the first market phase, we may sell or lease at a monthly or other fee structure the ARKE product to hospitals, clinics, distribution companies and/or buying groups that supply those rehabilitation facilities. We are also considering other revenue models.

 

We intend on developing other market vertical products to introduce to the market. We intend on using a similar commercialization approach for these products as planned for the ARKE but have not fully identified the market potential of each.



Intellectual Property


We use intellectual property developed or acquired, including patents, trade secrets, technical innovations, and various licensing agreements to provide our future growth and to build our competitive position. We have 5 U.S. and international patents pending and 13 U.S. provisional patents. As we continue to expand our intellectual property portfolio, it is critical for us to continue to invest in filing patent applications to protect our technology, inventions, and improvements. However, we can give no assurance that competitors will not infringe on our patent rights or otherwise create similar or non-infringing competing products that are technically patentable in their own right.



Our patents pending are as follows:

Bionik has also filed 13 provisional patents in the areas of Robotics, Algorithms & Controls Systems, Sensory Technology and Cloud Computing. The provisional patents may not be filed as full patents and new provisional patents may be filed as the technology evolves or changes.


We have and generally plan to continue to enter into non-disclosure, confidentially and intellectual property assignment agreements with all new employees as a condition of employment. In addition, we intend to also generally enter into confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements with consultants, manufacturers’ representatives, distributors, suppliers and others to attempt to limit access to, use and disclosure of our proprietary information.



Research and Development

 

Our research and development programs are generally pursued by engineers and scientists employed by us in Toronto on a full-time basis or hired as per diem consultants or through partnerships with industry leaders in manufacturing and design and researchers and academia. We are also working with subcontractors in developing specific components of our technologies. The primary objective of our research and development program is to advance the development of our existing and proposed products, to enhance the commercial value of such products.


Prior to our acquisition of Bionik Canada in the Acquisition Transaction and as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, we did not incur any research and development costs.

Government Regulation

 

General


Our medical technology products and operations are subject to regulation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) and various other federal and state agencies, as well as foreign governmental agencies. These agencies enforce laws and regulations that govern the development, testing, manufacturing, labeling, advertising, marketing and distribution, and market surveillance of our medical device products.


In addition to the below, the only regulations we encounter are the regulations that are common to all businesses, such as employment legislation, implied warranty laws, and environmental, health and safety standards, to the extent applicable. We will also encounter in the future industry-specific government regulations that would govern our products, if and when developed for commercial use. It may become the case that other regulatory approvals will be required for the design and manufacture of our products and proposed products.

 

U.S. Regulation


Under the U.S. Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, medical devices are classified into one of three classes — Class I, Class II or Class III — depending on the degree of risk associated with each medical device and the extent of control needed to ensure safety and effectiveness. The ARKE is expected to be a Class II product (products similar to the ARKE are currently designated as Class II for supervised use). Class II devices require a 510(k) premarket submission to the US FDA. Equivalent agencies in other countries also require similar submissions prior to the device being marketed.

 

We also need to establish a suitable and effective quality management system, which establishes controlled processes for our product design, manufacturing, and distribution. We plan to do this in compliance with the internationally recognized standard ISO 13485:2013 Quality Management Systems. Following the introduction of a product, the FDA and foreign agencies engage in periodic reviews of our quality systems, as well as product performance and advertising and promotional materials. These regulatory controls, as well as any changes in FDA policies, can affect the time and cost associated with the development, introduction and continued availability of new products. Where possible, we anticipate these factors in our product development processes. These agencies possess the authority to take various administrative and legal actions against us, such as product recalls, product seizures and other civil and criminal sanctions.

 

Foreign Regulation


In addition to regulations in the United States, we will be subject to a variety of foreign regulations governing clinical trials and commercial sales and distribution of our products in foreign countries. Whether or not we obtain FDA approval for a product, we must obtain approval of a product by the comparable regulatory authorities of foreign countries before we can commence clinical trials or marketing of the product in those countries. The approval process varies from country to country, and the time may be longer or shorter than that required for FDA approval. The requirements governing the conduct of clinical trials, product licensing, pricing and reimbursement vary greatly from country to country.


The policies of the FDA and foreign regulatory authorities may change and additional government regulations may be enacted which could prevent or delay regulatory approval of our products and could also increase the cost of regulatory compliance. We cannot predict the likelihood, nature or extent of adverse governmental regulation that might arise from future legislative or administrative action, either in the United States or abroad.

Employees

 

During the year ended December 31, 2014, we were operated by Austin Kibler, our then Chief Executive Officer and Director.  As of February 26, 2015, we have 15 full-time employees, 1 part-time employee and 3 consultants who are based in our principal executive office located in Toronto, Canada. These employees oversee day-to-day operations of the Company supporting management, engineering, manufacturing, and administration functions of the Company. As required, we also engage consultants to provide services to the Company, including quality assurance and corporate services. We have no unionized employees.


We currently plan to hire up to 10 additional full-time employees within the next 12 months, whose principal responsibilities will be the support of our research and development, clinical development and business development activities.


We consider relations with our employees to be satisfactory.

As a result of the Offering, after payment of placement agent fees and expenses but before the payment of other offering expenses such as legal and accounting expenses, we received net proceeds of approximately $5,383,734 at the First Closing, including the $500,000 in bridge loans we previously received that were taken into account as part of the Minimum Offering Amount.


On March 27, 2015, we sold in a second closing, 1,212,500 Units for gross proceeds of $970,000 at the Purchase Price. After payment of placement agent fees and expenses but before the payment of other Offering expenses such as legal and accounting expenses, we received net proceeds of $828,900.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA.


Not required for smaller reporting companies.


ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.


General


This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying financial statements and related notes. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors.  The discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations are based upon the financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of any contingent liabilities at the financial statement date and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis we review our estimates and assumptions. The estimates were based on historical experience and other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results are likely to differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions, but we do not believe such differences will materially affect our financial position or results of operations. Critical accounting policies, the policies that we believe to be most important to the presentation of our financial statements and that require the most difficult, subjective and complex judgments, are outlined below in the “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” as disclosed in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

Plan of Operation and Recent Corporate Developments


Bionik Laboratories Corp. was incorporated on January 8, 2010 in the State of Colorado. At the time of our incorporation the name of our company was Strategic Dental Management Corp.  On July 16, 2013, the Company changed its name from Strategic Dental Management Corp. to Drywave Technologies, Inc. and changed its state of incorporation from Colorado to Delaware. Effective February 13, 2015, we filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware a Certificate of Amendment to our Articles of Incorporation whereby, among other things, we changed our name to Bionik Laboratories Corp. and reduced the authorized number of shares of Common Stock from 200,000,000 to 150,000,000. Additionally, on September 24, 2014, our stockholders approved a 1-for-0.831105 reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of our Common Stock, and adopted an equity incentive plan. The reverse stock split was implemented on February 13, 2015.


Bionik Canada was incorporated on March 24, 2011 under the Canada Business Corporations Act.

On February 26, 2015, we entered into an Investment Agreement with Acquireco, our wholly owned subsidiary, and Bionik Canada  whereby we acquired 100 Class 1 common shares of Bionik Canada representing 100% of the outstanding Class 1 common shares of Bionik Canada, taking into account the Exchangeable Share Transaction. After giving effect to this transaction, we commenced operations through Bionik Canada.


Immediately prior to the closing of the Acquisition Transaction and the First Closing, we transferred all of the business, properties, assets, operations and goodwill of the Company (other than cash and cash equivalents), and liabilities as of March 6, 2013, to our then-existing wholly owned subsidiary, Strategic Dental Alliance, Inc., and then transferred all of the capital stock of Strategic Dental Alliance to Brian E. Ray, a former officer and existing director (through March 20, 2015) and Jon Lundgreen, a former officer and director, pursuant to a Spin-Off Agreement. Also as of immediately prior to the closing of the Acquisition Transaction and the First Closing, we entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Tungsten 74 LLC, pursuant to which Tungsten 74 LLC assumed all of our remaining liabilities through the closing of the Acquisition Transaction. Accordingly, as of the closing of the Acquisition Transaction and the First Closing, we had no assets or liabilities.


As of February 26, 2015, we are a medical device company engaged in the business of designing, developing and commercializing physical rehabilitation technologies, prosthetics, and assisted robotic products. We strive to create products that improve an individual’s health, comfort, accessibility and quality of life through products that use advanced algorithms and sensing technologies to anticipate a user’s every move.

Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates


The discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations are based upon the financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of any contingent liabilities at the financial statement date and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis we review our estimates and assumptions. The estimates were based on historical experience and other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results are likely to differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions, but we do not believe such differences will materially affect our financial position or results of operations.


Results of Operations


For the years Ended December 31, 2014 and 2013


For the year ended December 31, 2014, we received $6,000 in revenue from a related party, had cost of sales from a related party of $7,000 and general and administrative expenses of $28,528.  As a result, we incurred a loss from operations of $29,528 for the year ended December 31, 2014.


For the year ended December 31, 2013, we received $5,200 in revenue from a related party, and had general and administrative expenses of $18,309.  As a result, we incurred a loss from operations of $13,109 for the year ended December 31, 2013.


The increased loss from operations between the year ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 was due to an increase in general and administrative expenses in 2014 as compared to 2013 primarily due to increased legal fees incurred in connection with the Acquisition Transaction.  We also incurred cost of sales of $7,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to $0 for the year ended December 31, 2013 as the Company did not incur charges for the related party services for the year ended December 31, 2013.


General and administrative expenses, which consist of fees paid for legal, accounting, and auditing services, were incurred primarily to enable the Company to satisfy the requirements of a United States reporting company and legal fees associated with the Acquisition Transaction.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


At December 31, 2014, the Company had a cash balance of $3,242 and current liabilities of $42,580 compared to a cash balance of $4,422 and current liabilities of $14,232 at December 31, 2013.  


Through April 13, 2015, we have raised in the Offering aggregate gross proceeds of $7,871,600, which provides us with capital to implement our business plan for at least the next 12 months.


Operating Activities


During the year ended December 31, 2014 we used cash of $13,204 in operating activities compared to $14,609 cash used in operating activities as of December 31, 2013. In the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 we incurred losses of $29,528 and our balance of accounts payable increased by $16,324. By the comparison, during the twelve months ended December 31, 2013 we incurred losses of $13,109 and our balance of accounts payable decreased $1,500.




16



Investing Activities


We neither used, nor generated, cash flow from investing activities during the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 or 2013.


Financing Activities


During the twelve months ended December 31, 2014, we received $12,024 by way of loan from our principal shareholder to provide us with working capital. By comparison, during the twelve months ended December 31, 2013 we received $14,082 by way of loan from related parties to provide us with working capital.


Going Concern


The continuation of our business is dependent upon obtaining further financing and achieving a break even or profitable level of operations in our business. The issuance of additional equity securities by us could result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current or future stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments.  There are no assurances that we will be able to obtain additional financing through either private placements, and/or bank financing or other loans necessary to support our working capital requirements. To the extent that funds generated from operations and any private placements, public offerings and/or bank financing are insufficient, we will have to raise additional working capital. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available, or if available, will be on terms acceptable to us.  These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.


See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” above for information on amounts raised since the end of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements


“Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements (“ASU 2014-10”) issued in June 2014, ASU 2014-10 eliminated the distinction of a development stage entity and certain related disclosure requirements, including the elimination of inception-to-date information on the statements of operations, cash flows and stockholders’ equity. The amendments in ASU 2014-10 are effective prospectively for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods within those annual periods, however early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2014-10 for its financial statements and accordingly has removed the inception-to-date information.


“Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income”, issued in February 2013 requires entities to disclose additional information for items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”). For items reclassified out of AOCI and into net income in their entirety, entities are required to disclose the effect of the reclassification on each affected line item of net income. For AOCI reclassification items that are not reclassified in their entirety into net income, a cross-reference to other required U.S. GAAP disclosures is required. This information may be provided either in the notes or parenthetically on the face of the statement that reports net income, provided that all the information is disclosed in a single location. However, an entity is prohibited from providing this information parenthetically on the face of the statement that reports net income, if it has items that are not reclassified in their entirety into net income. The guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company.


“Income Taxes (ASC Topic - 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit when a Net Operating Loss Carry-forward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carry-forward Exists” (“ASU 2013-11”) was issued during July 2013. The FASB issued guidance on how to present an unrecognized tax benefit. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2013. Adoption of the accounting pronouncement does not have a material effect on these accompanying financial statements.



17




On May 28, 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”. The standard outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance. The accounting standard is effective for annual reporting periods (including interim reporting periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is not permitted. The impact on the financial statements of adopting ASU 2014-09 will be assessed by management.


On August 27, 2014, the FASB issued a new financial accounting standard on going concern, ASU No. 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Sub-Topic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern.” The standard provides guidance about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is a substantial doubt about the organization’s ability to continue as a going concern. The amendments in this Update apply to all companies. They become effective in the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, with early application permitted. The impact on the financial statements of adopting ASU 2014-15 will be assessed by management.


Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying condensed interim financial statements.

  REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM



Board of Directors

Bionik Laboratories Corp.

(formerly Drywave Technologies, Inc.)

428 Bay Street, N105

Toronto, Ontario, Canada


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Bionik Laboratories Corp. (formerly Drywave Technologies, Inc.) and subsidiary company (collectively “the Company”) as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statement of operations, changes in stockholders' deficit and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.


We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 audit 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 financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides 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 Bionik Laboratories Corp. (formerly Drywave Technologies, Inc.) and subsidiary company as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements the Company has suffered losses from operations and currently does not have sufficient available funding to fully implement its business plan. These factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Bionik Laboratories Corp.

(formerly Drywave Technologies, Inc.)

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Years Ended December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013


Note 1 Nature of Operations


Bionik Laboratories Corp. (“Bionik”, “the Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”)   was incorporated on January 8, 2010 in the State of Colorado under the name Strategic Dental Management Corp. Our initial business plan was to build dental practices from scratch or to acquire existing dental practices and manage all aspects of the dental practices including payroll, human resources, collections, personnel, training, etc.  In addition, we planned to consult with other dental practices and train employees, manage day to day operations, provide all financial and accounting services, etc.


On March 6, 2013, the Company came under new ownership and while continuing with its existing business plan, the Company also started to seek new business opportunities including the acquisition of, or merger with, an existing business.  


On July 16, 2013, the Company changed its name from Strategic Dental Management Corp. to Drywave Technologies, Inc. and changed its state of incorporation from Colorado to Delaware as part of preliminary negotiations for a potential merger that subsequently proved to be abortive.


Subsequent to December 31, 2014, as disclosed in more fully in Note 8 - Subsequent Events below , effective February 13, 2015, the Company changed its name from Drywave Technologies, Inc. to Bionik Laboratories Corp. and effective February 26, 2015, acquired Bionik Laboratories, Inc., a Toronto Corporation, which is an innovative medical-robotics company that develops healthcare solutions for patients with restricted physical mobility. Prior to February 26, 2015, the Company spun off its existing dental consulting business, all its assets (except its cash balances) and liabilities.


Consequently, subsequent to February 26, 2015, we are now a medical device company, specializing in the designing, developing and commercializing of cost-effective physical rehabilitation technologies, prosthetics, and assisted robotic products. We strive to innovate and build devices that improve an individual’s health, comfort, accessibility and quality of life through the use of advanced algorithms and sensing technologies that anticipate a user’s every move.


Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


Basis of Presentation


The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  The Company has chosen December 31 as a year end.


Principles of Consolidation


The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Bionik Laboratories Corp. (formerly Drywave Technologies, Inc.) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Strategic Dental Alliance, Inc. for all periods presented. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Development Stage Entities


The Company is in the development stage as defined under the then current Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 915-205 “Development-Stage Entities,” and among the additional disclosures required as a development stage company are that our financial statements were identified as



25



those of a development stage company, and that the statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows disclosed activity since the date of our inception (January 8, 2010) as a development stage company. Effective June 10, 2014 FASB changed its regulations with respect to Development Stage Entities and these additional disclosures are no longer required for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014 with the option for entities to early adopt these new provisions. The Company has elected to early adopt these provisions and consequently these additional disclosures are not included in these financial statements.


Use of Estimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions impact, among others, the following: assessment of the recoverability of long-lived assets and the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets due to continuing and expected future losses.


Cash and cash equivalents


All cash and short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less are considered cash and cash equivalents, since they are readily convertible to cash. These short-term investments are stated at cost, which approximates fair value.


Property and equipment


The Company has no property or equipment at this time.  


Due to Related Party


Due to related party represents an obligation to pay for goods or services that were used in the ordinary course of business and paid for by a related party on the company’s behalf.  Due to related party is classified as a current liability as payment is due within one year or less.


Financial Instruments


The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments comprising cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses and balance due to related party, as reported in the accompanying balance sheet, approximates fair value due to their short term maturity.


Revenue Recognition


The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned.  We consider revenue realized or realizable and earned when all of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the product has been shipped or the services have been rendered to the customer, (iii) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collection is reasonably assured.


Advertising expenses


Advertising costs are expensed when incurred.  No advertising was conducted during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.


Income taxes


Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with ASC 740 , using the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable



26



income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.  The Company is currently filing its income tax returns on the cash basis.  The change in controlling stockholders did not result in a tax event.  The Company has not recognized an adjustment for uncertain income tax positions as there are no positions that the Company feels are more-likely-than-not to be sustained.  The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, as a component of income tax expense.  No interest or penalties have been recorded as of December 31, 2014 and 2013.  The Company is still subject to income tax examinations for all federal and Colorado taxes since inception.


Stock based compensation


The Company accounts for employee and non-employee stock awards under ASC 718, whereby equity instruments issued to employees for services are recorded based on the fair value of the instrument issued and those issued to non-employees are recorded based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument, whichever is more reliably measurable. The Company issued no stock based compensation to employees or no-employees during the years ended December 31, 2014 or 2013.


Earnings (loss) per share


The net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common outstanding. Warrants, stock options, and common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Company's preferred stock (if any), are not included in the computation if the effect would be anti-dilutive and would increase the earnings or decrease loss per share.  No potentially dilutive debt or equity instruments were issued or outstanding during the years ended December 31, 2014 or 2013.


On July 16, 2013, the Company executed a 22.75 for 1 forward stock split.  As a result of the split, each outstanding share of the Company before the split represents 22.75 shares of common stock after the split.   All share and per share amounts have been retroactively restated in these financial statements to reflect the forward split.


On February 13, 2015, the Company executed a 1 for 0.831105 reverse stock split.  As a result of the split, each outstanding share of the Company before the split represents 0.831105 shares of common stock after the split.   All share and per share amounts have been retroactively restated in these financial statements to reflect the reverse split.  


Reclassification


Certain amounts reported in prior years in the financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements


The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on our financial condition or the results of its operations other than in respect of the early adoption of the new regulations relating to Development Stage Entities as discussed above.


Note 3 Going Concern


As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has a net loss of $29,528 and net cash used in operations of $13,204 for the year ended December 31, 2014, and an accumulated deficit of $64,551 at December 31, 2014.  In addition, the Company has not yet generated significant revenues. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.


The Company expects that its current cash resources as well as expected lack of operating cash flows will not be sufficient to sustain operations for a period greater than one year.  The ability of the Company to continue its operations is dependent on Management's plans, which include continuing to raise equity based financing.



27



The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.


As described in Note 8 Subsequent Events , subsequent to December 31, 2014, through April 13, 2015, the Company received gross proceeds of $7,871,600 through the sale of shares of its common stock and warrants. The Company believes that these proceeds should be sufficient to fund its proposed operations and business plan for the next twelve months.


Note 4 Related Party Transactions


Related party revenue


All Company revenues for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 of $6,000 and $5,200 respectively were earned by providing payroll, accounting and human resource consulting, to an LLC related by common control of a Company director.  


Related party expenses


The Company paid consulting fees to a director of $7,000 and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively for the consulting services provided.


In support of the Company’s efforts and cash requirements, it may rely on advances from related parties until such time that the Company can support its operations or complete a business acquisition or merger.  There is no formal written commitment for continued support by related party affiliates.  Amounts represent advances or amounts paid in satisfaction of liabilities. The advances are considered temporary in nature and have not been formalized by a promissory note.  As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had a due from related party balance outstanding with an affiliate of the Company in the amount of $26,106 and $14,082, respectively. The due from related party balance is non-interest bearing, due upon demand and unsecured.


As further discussed in Note 8 - Subsequent Events below, effective February 26, 2015 this liability was spun off to a related party and was no longer a liability of the Company.


Note 5 Stockholders’ Deficit


Preferred Stock - The Company as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 had 10,000,000 shares of authorized preferred stock, $0.001 par value, with none issued and outstanding, with rights, preferences and designations to be determined by the Board of Directors.


Common Stock - The Company as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 had 200,000,000 shares of authorized common stock, $0.001 par value, with 96,589,680 shares issued and outstanding.  


Effective February 13, 2015, the Company amended its Certificate of Incorporation to decrease the number of authorized shares of common stock to 150,000,000 shares and the reduced number of authorized shares of common stock has been retrospectively recognized in these financial statements   


On July 16, 2013, the Company executed a 22.75 for 1 forward stock split.  As a result of the split, each outstanding share of the Company before the split represents 22.75 shares of common stock after the split.   All share and per share amounts have been retroactively restated in these financial statements to reflect the forward split.


On February 13, 2015, the Company executed a 1 for 0.831105 reverse stock split.  As a result of the split, each outstanding share of the Company before the split represents 0.831105 shares of common stock after the split.   All share and per share amounts have been retroactively restated in these financial statements to reflect the reverse split.  


No shares of common stock were issued during the years ended December 31, 2014 or 2013.



28



Note 6 Income Taxes


Deferred income taxes arise from the temporary differences between financial statement and income tax recognition of net operating losses.  These loss carryovers are limited under the Internal Revenue Code should a significant change in ownership occur.  At December 31, 2014 and 2013 the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $65,000 and $35,000 which will begin to expire in 2030.  The deferred tax asset created by the net operating losses available for carry forward, calculated at an effective tax rate of 20% approximates $13,000 and $7,000 as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively and has been fully offset by a 100% valuation allowance.  The change in the valuation allowance for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 was approximately $6,000 and $2,600, respectively.


Note 7 Commitments and Contingencies


Contractual – The Company did not enter into any long term contractual commitments during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.


Legal Matters - From time to time, the Company may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of operations in the normal course of business. As of December 31, 2014, there were no pending or threatened lawsuits that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the results of our operations. There are no proceedings in which any of our directors, officers or affiliates, or any registered or beneficial shareholders, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest.


Note 8 Subsequent Events


In accordance with ASC855-10. Subsequent Events the Company has analyzed its operations subsequent to December 31, 2014 to the date of these financial statements and has determined that it does not have any material subsequent events to disclose in these financial statements other than those disclosed in the notes above and as discussed below.  


On February 20, 2015, we filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware a Certificate of Amendment to our Articles of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Amendment”) whereby, among other things, we changed our name to Bionik Laboratories Corp. and reduced the authorized number of shares of Common Stock from 200,000,000 to 150,000,000. Additionally, on September 24, 2014, our stockholders had approved a 1-for-0.831105 reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of our Common Stock, and adopted an equity incentive plan. The reverse stock split was implemented on February 13, 2015.


On February 26, 2015, we entered into an Investment Agreement with Acquireco, our wholly owned subsidiary, and Bionik Canada (the “Investment Agreement”) whereby we acquired 100 Class 1 common shares of Bionik Canada representing 100% of the outstanding Class 1 common shares of Bionik Canada, taking into account the Exchangeable Share Transaction (as defined below) (the “Acquisition Transaction”). After giving effect to the Acquisition Transaction, we commenced operations through Bionik Canada.


Immediately prior to the closing of the Acquisition Transaction and the First Closing (as defined below), we transferred all of the business, properties, assets, operations and goodwill of the Company (other than cash and cash equivalents), and liabilities as of March 6, 2013, to our then-existing wholly owned subsidiary, Strategic Dental Alliance, Inc., a Colorado corporation (“Strategic Dental Alliance”), and then transferred all of the capital stock of Strategic Dental Alliance to Brian E. Ray, a former officer and existing director (through March 20, 2015) and Jon Lundgreen, a former officer and director, pursuant to a Spin-Off Agreement (the “Spin-Off Agreement”). Also as of immediately prior to the closing of the Acquisition Transaction and the First Closing, we entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Tungsten 74 LLC, pursuant to which Tungsten 74 LLC assumed all of our remaining liabilities through the closing of the Acquisition Transaction (the “Assignment and Assumption Agreement”). Accordingly, as of the closing of the Acquisition Transaction and the First Closing, we had no assets or liabilities.




29



As a condition of the closing of the Acquisition Transaction, Bionik Canada created a new class of exchangeable shares (the “Exchangeable Shares”), which were issued to the existing common shareholders of Bionik Canada in exchange for all of their outstanding common shares, all of which were cancelled (the “Exchangeable Share Transaction”).


Pursuant to the rights and privileges of the Exchangeable Shares, the holders of such Exchangeable Shares maintain the right to (i) received dividends equal to, and paid concurrently with, dividends paid by the Company to the holders of Common Stock; (ii) vote, through the Trustee’s voting of the Special Voting Preferred Stock (as defined herein) on all matters that the holders of Common Stock are entitled to vote upon; and (iii) receive shares of  Common Stock upon the liquidation or insolvency of the Company upon the redemption of such Exchangeable Shares by Acquireco.


As part of the Exchangeable Share Transaction, we entered into the following agreements, each dated February 26, 2015:

·

Voting and Exchange Trust Agreement (the “Trust Agreement”) with Bionik Canada and Computershare Trust Company of Canada (the “Trustee”); and

·

Support Agreement (the “Support Agreement”) with Acquireco and Bionik Canada.


Pursuant to the terms of the Trust Agreement, the parties created a trust for the benefit of its beneficiaries, which are the holders of the Exchangeable Shares, enabling the Trustee to exercise the voting rights of such holders until such time as they choose to redeem their Exchangeable Shares for shares of the common stock of the Company, and allowing the Trustee to hold certain exchange rights in respect of the Exchangeable Shares.


As a condition of the Trust Agreement and prior to the execution thereof, we filed a Certificate of Designation with the Delaware Secretary of State, effective February 20, 2015, designating a class of our preferred shares as The Special Voting Preferred Stock (the “Special Voting Preferred Stock”) and issued one share of The Special Voting Preferred Stock to the Trustee.


The Special Voting Preferred Stock entitles the Trustee to exercise the number of votes equal to the number of Exchangeable Shares outstanding on a one-for-one basis during the term of the Trust Agreement. The Trust Agreement further sets out the terms and conditions under which holders of the Exchangeable Shares are entitled to instruct the Trustee as to how to vote during any stockholder meetings of our company.


Pursuant to the terms of the Trust Agreement, we granted the Trustee the right to require our Company to purchase the Exchangeable Shares from any beneficiary upon the occurrence of certain events including in the event that we are bankrupt, insolvent or our business is wound up. The Trust Agreement continues to remain in force until the earliest of the following events: (i) no outstanding Exchangeable Shares are held by any beneficiary under the Trust Agreement; and (ii) each of Bionik Canada and us elects to terminate the Trust Agreement in writing and the termination is approved by the beneficiaries.


Pursuant to the terms of the terms of the Support Agreement, we agreed to certain covenants while the Exchangeable Shares were outstanding, including: (i) not to declare or pay any dividends on our common stock unless simultaneously declaring the equivalent dividend for the holders of the Exchangeable Shares, (ii) advising Bionik Canada in advance of any dividend declaration by our company, (iii) ensure that the record date for any dividend or other distribution declared on the shares of the Company is not less than seven days after the declaration date of  such dividend or other distribution; (iv) taking all actions reasonably necessary to enable Bionik Canada to pay and otherwise perform its obligations with respect to the issued and outstanding Exchangeable Shares, (iv) to ensure that shares of the Company are delivered to holders of Exchangeable Shares upon exercise of certain redemption rights

set out in the agreement and in the rights and restrictions of the Exchangeable Shares, and (v) reserving for issuance and keeping available from our authorized common stock such number of shares as may be equal to: (A) the number of Exchangeable Shares issued and outstanding from time to time; and (B) the number of Exchangeable Shares issuable upon the exercise of all rights to acquire Exchangeable Shares from time to time.




30



The Support Agreement also outlines certain restrictions on our ability to issue any dividends, rights, options or warrants to all or substantially all of our stockholders during the term of the agreement unless the economic equivalent is provided to the holders of Exchangeable Shares. The Support Agreement is governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario.


Concurrently with the closing of the Acquisition Transaction and in contemplation of the Acquisition Transaction, we sold 7,735,750 units (the “Units”) for gross proceeds of $6,188,600 (including $500,000 of outstanding bridge loans converted into Units at the offering price) at a purchase price of $0.80 per Unit (the “Purchase Price”) in a private placement offering (the “Offering”). Each Unit consists of one share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) and a warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase one share of Common Stock at an initial exercise price of $1.40 per share (the “Warrant Shares”). The Common Stock and Warrants were sold to each subscriber of the Offering pursuant to a Subscription Agreement (“Subscription Agreement”).

 

The Offering was being offered with a minimum offering amount of $6,000,000 (the “Minimum Offering Amount”) and up to a maximum offering amount of $12,800,000 (subject to an overallotment option). Once the Minimum Offering amount was reached and held in escrow and other conditions to closing were satisfied (including the simultaneous closing of the Acquisition Transaction), the Company and the placement agent were able to conduct a first closing (the “First Closing”). Pursuant to the terms of a Registration Rights Agreement, we have agreed to file a registration statement on Form S-1 (or any other applicable form exclusively for the Offering) (the “Registration Statement”) registering for resale under the Securities Act all of the shares of Common Stock sold in the Offering and Warrant Shares underlying the Warrants within ninety days after the First Closing and we have agreed to use our commercially reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective within one hundred eighty days of the First Closing. As a result of the Offering, after payment of placement agent fees and expenses but before the payment of other offering expenses such as legal and accounting expenses, we received net proceeds of approximately $5,383,734 at the First Closing, including the $500,000 in bridge loans we previously received that were taken into account as part of the Minimum Offering Amount.


As of the Acquisition Transaction and the First Closing, an aggregate of 90,575,126 shares of our Common Stock were deemed cancelled, of which 90,207,241 were held by our former Chief Executive Officer and current Senior Vice President.


Immediately following the Acquisition Transaction, the Exchangeable Share Transaction and the First Closing, there were 63,735,750 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding of which 6,000,000 were held by existing stockholders, 7,735,750 were held by the investors in the Offering and Bionik Canada shareholders held an equivalent of 50,000,000 shares of our common stock through their ownership of 100% of the Exchangeable Shares. Furthermore, up to 1,905,700 shares of our Common Stock were, as of such date, subject to forfeiture in the event we were unable to raise additional gross proceeds of $3,811,400 in the Offering.


On March 27, 2015, we sold to accredited investors in a second closing, 1,212,500 Units for gross proceeds of $970,000 at the Purchase Price. The Common Stock and Warrants were sold to each subscriber of the Offering pursuant to a Subscription Agreement. After payment of placement agent fees and expenses but before the payment of other Offering expenses such as legal and accounting expenses, we received net proceeds of $828,900.

 

On March 31, 2015, we sold to accredited investors in a third closing of the Offering, 891,250 Units for gross proceeds of $713,000 at the Purchase Price. The Common Stock and Warrants were sold to each subscriber of the Offering pursuant to a Subscription Agreement. After payment of placement agent fees and expenses but before the payment of other offering expenses such as legal and accounting expenses, the Registrant received net proceeds of $620,310.


Through April 13, 2015, we have raised in the Offering aggregate gross proceeds of $7,871,600.  As a result, our pre-Acquisition Transaction stockholders hold approximately 9% of our issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, the former stockholders of Bionik Canada hold approximately 76% of our issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock through their ownership of 100% of the Exchangeable Shares, and the investors in the Offering hold approximately 15% of our issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock.

ITEM 9. CHANGES AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURES .


On February 6, 2014, we were notified that Ron R. Chadwick, P.C., the Registrant’s independent registered accountant had retired and would no longer serve as the Registrant’s independent registered accountant.   In connection with Mr. Chadwick’s retirement, the Registrant’s Board of Directors approved the engagement of Cutler and Co., LLC to serve as the Registrant’s independent registered accountant.


Prior to engaging Cutler and Co., LLC, Cutler and Co., LLC did not provide the Registrant with either written or oral advice that was an important factor considered by the Registrant in reaching a decision to change its independent registered public accounting firm to Cutler and Co., LLC.


There have been no disagreements between us and our accountants, Ronald R. Chadwick, P.C. and Cutler & Co. LLC regarding any matter or accounting principles or practice or financial statement disclosures.


ITEM 9A.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.


Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures


We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures” as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.


As of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our then chief executive officer (our principal executive officer and principal financial officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b). Based upon this evaluation, the chief executive officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report were ineffective due to the material weakness in internal control below.


Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting


Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control over financial reporting has been designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP.


Our internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect transactions and dispositions of our assets; provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorization of our management and directors; and provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use  or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our 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. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.



32




Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting at December 31, 2014. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework. Based on that assessment under those criteria, our management has determined that, at December 31, 2014, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective due to a lack of resources and segregation of duties.


This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to the exemption provided to issuers that are not “large accelerated filers” nor “accelerated filers” under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.


Changes in internal controls over financial reporting


During the period covered by this Annual Report, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13(a)-15(f) or 15(d)-15(f)) that occurred during the period covered by this annual report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

These companies have ranged in size from start-ups to companies with revenues of over $2 billion. In these roles, Mr. Bloch has secured significant funding for both private and public companies, gained experience with initial public offerings and led a number of acquisitions and partnership transactions. We believe Mr. Bloch is qualified to serve as Chairman of the Board of Directors due to his public service experience, experience in the biotechnology and pharmaceuticals industries and his business contacts.

In addition, Mr. Prywata, together with Mr. Caires, was responsible for raising and securing initial seed capital – subsequent capital raises were done together with Mr. Bloch. Mr. Prywata is the co-inventor of all current intellectual property of the Company. Mr. Prywata serves as a member of the Board of Directors due to his being a founder of the Company and his current executive position with the Company. We also believe that Mr. Prywata is qualified due to his experience in the medical device industry.


Thiago Caires: Chief Technology Officer and Director . Mr. Caires is the co-founder of Bionik Canada and has served as its chief technical officer since May 2013.

While at Bionik Canada, Mr. Caires was responsible for managing technological advancements and creating the clinical trials strategy for the approvals of its first product. In addition, Mr. Caires, together with Mr. Prywata, was responsible for raising and securing initial seed capital - subsequent capital raises were done together with Mr. Bloch. Mr. Caires is the co-inventor of all of current intellectual property of the Company. Mr. Caires serves as a member-elect of the Board of Directors due to his being a founder of the Company and his current executive position with the Company. We also believe that Mr. Caires is qualified due to his experience in the medical device industry.

Arrangements between Officers and Directors

 

On March 6, 2013, AAK Ventures, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company controlled by Austin Kibler, purchased 93.44% of our issued and outstanding common stock held by certain holders of our common stock. Pursuant to the terms of this change in control of the Company, Brian Ray and John Lundgreen resigned all positions with the Company except Brian Ray remaining as a Director and Austin Kibler was appointed to serve as our Chief Executive Officer and Director. We filed a current report on Form 8-K on March 12, 2013 with the SEC giving notice of the change in control.


As of February 26, 2015, as part of the Acquisition Transaction, the Company spun off Strategic Dental Alliance, Inc., a Colorado corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and, until the Acquisition Transaction, the holder of certain of the Company’s assets and liabilities, to Messrs. Brian Ray and John Lundgreen.


As of February 26, 2015, as part of the Acquisition Transaction and the resignation of Mr. Kibler as our Chief Executive Officer, we cancelled an aggregate of 90,207,241 shares of the Company’s common stock beneficially owned by AAK Ventures, LLC.


Other than the above transactions or as otherwise set forth in this Annual Report on Form 10-K or in any reports filed by us with the SEC, including the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by us on March 4, 2015, which discloses in further detail the Acquisition Transaction and Bionik Canada, there have been no related party transactions, or



36



any other transactions or relationships required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404 Regulation S-K. The Company is currently not a subsidiary of any company.

Reporting Persons are also required to furnish copies of such reports filed pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with the Company.


Based on our review of the copies of such forms received by us, and to the best of our knowledge, other than (a) Mr. Kibler, who did not file a Form 3 disclosing the acquisition of certain shares beneficial owned by him or (b) Mr. Ray, who did not file a Form 4 disclosing the disposition of certain shares owned by him, all executive officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders filed the required reports in a timely manner.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE


Due to Related Party


As of December 31, 2014, in support of the Company’s efforts and cash requirements, it relies on advances from related parties until such time that the Company was able to support its operations or complete a business acquisition or merger.  There was no formal written commitment for continued support by related party affiliates.  Amounts represent advances or amounts paid in satisfaction of liabilities. The advances are considered temporary in nature and were not been formalized by a promissory note.  


As of December 31, 2014, the Company had a due to related party balance outstanding with an affiliate of the Company in the amount of $26,106. The due to related party balance was non-interest bearing, due upon demand and unsecured.


Director Independence


We use the definition of “independence” of The NASDAQ Stock Market to make this determination. NASDAQ Listing Rule 5605(a)(2) provides that an “independent director” is a person other than an officer or employee of the company or any other individual having a relationship, which, in the opinion of the Company’s Board, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. The NASDAQ listing rules provide that a director cannot be considered independent if:



40




·

The director is, or at any time during the past three years was, an employee of the company;

·

 The director or a family member of the director accepted any compensation from the company in excess of $120,000 during any period of 12 consecutive months within the three years preceding the independence determination (subject to certain exclusions, including, among other things  compensation for board or board committee service);

·

A family member of the director is, or at any time during the past three years was, an executive officer of the company;

·

The director or a family member of the director is a partner in, controlling stockholder of, or an executive officer of an entity to which the company made, or from which the company received, payments in the current or any of the past three fiscal years that exceed 5% of the recipient’s consolidated gross revenue for that year or $200,000, whichever is greater (subject to certain exclusions);

·

The director or a family member of the director is employed as an executive officer of an entity where, at any time during the past three years, any of the executive officers of the company served on the compensation committee of such other entity; or

·

The director or a family member of the director is a current partner of the company’s outside auditor, or at any time during the past three years was a partner or employee of the company’s outside auditor, and who worked on the company’s audit.


Under such definitions, Dr. Hariri is considered an independent director.

CODE OF BUSINESS CONDUCT AND ETHICS 


I.

INTRODUCTION


This Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (this "Code") has been adopted by the Board of Directors of Bionik Laboratories Corp. (collectively with its subsidiaries, the "Company") to ensure that all directors, officers and employees of the Company (each an "Employee", and collectively, the "Employees") maintain the highest standards of business conduct in every aspect of their dealings with each other, clients, suppliers, stockholders and government authorities. This Code, along with the policies and other codes referred to in this Code, sets forth the standards and procedures by which all Employees must conduct themselves to avoid improper behavior and to help foster a culture of honesty, integrity and sound judgment. All Employees must comply with the standards and procedures of this Code and with all other Company policies and procedures applicable to such Employees.


II. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST


A conflict of interest occurs when an individual's private interest interferes or appears to interfere in any way with the interests of the Company. A conflict of interest may arise when an Employee takes actions or has interests that may make it difficult to perform his or her work objectively and effectively. Conflicts of interest may also arise when an Employee or a member of his or her family, receives improper personal benefits as a result of his or her position in the Company. Loans to, or guarantees of obligations of, such persons are of special concern.


Business decisions and actions must be based on the best interests of the Company and its clients. Employees may not have outside interests that conflict or appear to conflict with the best interests of the Company or its clients. Employees are expected to act solely for the benefit of the Company and its clients and must not be influenced by a personal interest that may result from other individual or business concerns.


Conflicts of interest are to be scrupulously avoided and, if unavoidable, must be disclosed to the Chief Financial Officer or a member of the Board of Directors at the earliest opportunity. Employees who have any uncertainty on whether certain actions or relationships present a conflict of interest, must contact their supervisor, the Chief Financial Officer or a member of the Board of Directors for guidance.


a. Business Dealings


Employees should deal with all persons doing business with the Company in a completely fair and objective manner, without favor or preference based upon personal financial considerations. Employees should avoid any activities, interests or associations that could impair his or her ability to perform work for the Company objectively and effectively, or that could give the appearance of interfering with his or her responsibilities on behalf of the Company. Employees may not use his or her position to attempt to cause a client to purchase, sell or hold a particular security when that action may reasonably be expected to create a personal benefit for such Employee. In addition, Employees may not take, directly or indirectly, inappropriate advantage of a position or abuse a fiduciary position of trust, loyalty and interest.


b. Financial Interest, Family Members and Close Personal Relationships


In general, without prior approval from the Chief Financial Officer, an Employee may not act on behalf of the Company in any transaction or business relationship involving the Employee, members of the Employee's family, or other persons or organizations with which the Employee or the family member has any significant personal connection or financial interest.


Negotiating with the Company on behalf of others with whom the Employee or the Employee's family member has a significant connection should be avoided if there is a risk that the Employee's involvement would be perceived as self-dealing or trading upon his or her position with the Company.


Employees must immediately disclose any financial interest or personal connection they or their family may have with an outside party with which the Company does business, is considering doing business or competes. A conflict of interest may exist when an Employee or a member of his or her family, directly or indirectly, owns a significant financial interest (ownership or otherwise) in an entity, which is a competitor of the Company or has current or prospective business with the Company as a supplier, guest, or contractor. A "significant financial interest" means (1) ownership of greater than 5% of the equity of a client, supplier or competitor or (2) an investment in a client, supplier or competitor that represents more than 5% of the total assets of the Employee.


c. Gifts, Entertainment and Inducements


Appropriate business gifts and entertainment are designed to build goodwill and sound working relationships among business partners. However, under certain circumstances, gifts, entertainment, favors, benefits and job offers may be, or appear to be, attempts to "purchase" favorable treatment. Accepting or offering such inducements could raise doubts about an Employee's ability to make independent business judgments in the Company's or in the clients' best interests.


The acceptance or giving of gifts or excessive entertainment from individuals who have business dealing or prospective dealings with the Company must not constitute a conflict of interest or create the appearance of impropriety. Employees may accept gifts or give gifts that are worth less than the limit set forth in  Receipt of Gifts by Employees Policy , and if applicable, the Employee's  Departmental Gift Policy .


All Employees must be satisfied that the gift or entertainment is not intended to influence their judgment or performance of duties. Further information is provided in  Receipt of Gifts by Employees Policy , and if applicable, the Employee's  Departmental Gift Policy .

For the purposes of this Code, the term "gift" includes anything of value for which the Employee is not required to pay the retail or usual and customary cost. A gift may include meals or refreshments, goods, services, tickets to entertainment or sporting events, or the use of a residence, vacation home, or other accommodations. Gifts given by others to members of the Employee's family, to those with whom the Employee has a close personal relationship and to charities designated by the Employee, are considered to be gifts to such Employee for purposes of this Code.


Employees are expected to make decisions about the use or purchase of materials, equipment, consultants, advice, property, and supplies with the intent of receiving the best value for the Company. Such decisions should consider total cost, competitiveness, quality, and service in addition to other factors relevant to the Company's business.


Each Employee must use good judgment to ensure there is no violation of these principles. Any question or uncertainty about whether any gifts, entertainment or other type of inducements are appropriate should be addressed to the Employee's supervisor or the Chief Financial Officer.


d. Outside Activities and Corporate Opportunities


Employees are prohibited from diverting to himself or herself or to others any opportunities that are discovered through the use of the Company's property or information or as a result of his or her position with the Company unless such opportunity has first been presented to the Company. Employees may not use the Company's property or information or his or her position for improper personal gain or to compete with the Company.


Competing with the Company may involve engaging in the same line of business as the Company, or any situation where the Employee takes away from the Company opportunities for investment, services or interests. If an Employee is presented with an investment opportunity in his or her capacity as a representative of the Company, the Employee may take advantage of the opportunity only if the investment is approved in writing by the Chief Financial Officer.


An Employee's service on the board of directors of an outside company, as well as other outside activities generally, could lead to a potential conflict of interest or insider trading concerns and may otherwise interfere with the Employee's duties to the Company. An Employee is prohibited from serving as a director or trustee of any public or private unaffiliated company (other than personal trusts and not-for-profit organizations), unless the service (1) would be in the best interests of the Company or the clients of the Company and (2) has been approved in writing by the Chief Financial Officer. It is the duty of every Employee to ensure that all outside activities, even charitable or pro bono activities, do not constitute a conflict of interest or are not otherwise inconsistent with employment by the Company. Any Employee serving on the board of an unaffiliated company may be required to resign from that company at any time if the Company determines that the Employee's continued service on such board may no longer be in the best interests of the Company. Employees should be cautious with respect to outside business interests that may create divided loyalties, divert substantial amounts of their time and/or compromise their independent judgment.


The Company discourages Employees from committing to secondary employment, particularly if it poses any conflict in meeting the Employee's ability to satisfactorily meet all job requirements and business needs. With the exception of temporary employees, before an Employee accepts a second job, that Employee must obtain the written consent of his or her department head and of the Chief Financial Officer. New Employees with existing relationships are required to ensure that their affiliations conform to these restrictions, and must obtain the requisite approvals.


e. Consultants and Agents


Whenever it becomes necessary to engage the services of an individual or entity to consult for or represent the Company, special care must be taken to ensure that no conflicts of interest exists between the Company and the person or entity to be retained. Employees must also ensure that outside consultants and agents of the Company are reputable and qualified. Agreements with consultants or agents should be in writing and should be approved by the Chief Financial Officer.


f. Loans and Other Financial Transactions


Without the prior approval of the Chief Financial Officer, no Employee may obtain loans or guarantees of personal obligations from, or enter into any other personal financial transaction with, any company that is a client, supplier or competitor of the Company. This guideline does not prohibit arms-length transactions with recognized banks or other financial institutions.


III. FAIR DEALING


Each Employee should endeavor to deal fairly with the Company's clients, suppliers, competitors and other Employees. No Employee should take unfair advantage of anyone through manipulation, concealment, abuse of privileged information, misrepresentation of material facts, or any other unfair dealing practice.


IV. PROTECTION AND PROPER USE OF COMPANY ASSETS


Employees have a duty to protect the Company's assets and ensure their efficient use. Theft, carelessness and waste have a direct impact on the Company's profitability. Employees should take measures to prevent damage to and theft or misuse of Company property. When Employees leave the Company, all Company property must be returned to the Company. Except as specifically authorized, Company assets, including Company time, equipment, materials, resources and proprietary information, must be used for legitimate business purposes only.


V. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS, RULES, REGULATIONS AND POLICIES


Employees are required to comply with the laws, rules and regulations governing the Company's business around the world, and with the related policies the Company has adopted. Individuals should be knowledgeable about specific laws, rules, regulations and policies that apply to their areas of responsibility. Questions and concerns about legal compliance and any information about a suspected or actual violation of any applicable law, rule or regulation should be reported immediately to the Employee's supervisor or the Chief Financial Officer. Certain matters with broad applicability are summarized below.


a. Accounting and Auditing Matters


Employees, as well as persons acting under their direction, are prohibited from taking any action to coerce, manipulate, mislead or fraudulently influence any independent public or certified public accountant engaged in the performance of an audit or review of the Company's financial statements.


Employees whose responsibilities include accounting, internal accounting controls and auditing matters should be familiar with the laws, regulations, ethical standards and internal procedures (including disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting) applicable to the Company's accounting and auditing process. These Employees must fulfill their accounting and auditing responsibilities in conformance with such laws, regulations, standards and procedures.


b. Accuracy of Public Reporting


Information provided to third parties (including stockholders, clients and regulators) about the Company, whether in formal filings or otherwise, must be complete, accurate, timely and understandable. Inaccurate, incomplete or misleading public reporting could cause severe damage to the Company's reputation and to its stockholders, and could result in civil and criminal penalties to the Company, the Employee involved or both.


c. Accuracy of Books and Records


Maintaining accurate books and records is the first step in ensuring that the Company's financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and fairly present, in all material respects, the financial condition and results of operations of the Company.


Employees must not create a false or misleading report or make a payment or establish an account on behalf of the Company with the understanding that any part of the payment or account is to be used for a purpose other than as described by the supporting documents. No Employee may make false or misleading entries in any of the Company's books and records.


Each Employee is responsible to ensure the accuracy and completeness of any business information, data, reports and records under his or her control. All financial books, records and accounts must accurately reflect transactions and events, and Employees must record all of the Company's activities in compliance with applicable laws and accounting standards.


d. Record Retention


Properly maintaining and retaining Company records is a critical part of the Company's compliance obligations. Employees are responsible for ensuring that business records are properly maintained and retained in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. Employees should familiarize themselves with these laws and regulations.


Destruction or falsification of any document that is potentially relevant to a violation of law or a government investigation may lead to prosecution for obstruction of justice. Therefore, if an Employee has reason to believe that a violation of the law has been committed or that a government criminal, civil or regulatory investigation has or is about to be commenced, he or she must retain all records (including computer records) that are or could be relevant to an investigation of the matter, whether conducted by the Company or by a governmental authority. Questions with regard to destruction or retention of documents in this context should be directed to the Chief Financial Officer.


e. Anti-Corruption


No one acting on behalf of the Company may use kickbacks, bribes or other corrupt practices in conducting the Company's business. The Company prohibits bribes to or kickbacks from anyone, anywhere in the world, for any reason. Employees must not engage in soliciting, receiving, or accepting, directly or indirectly, any bribe, kickback or other payment or benefit from any employee or agent of any current or prospective vendor, supplier, guest, landlord, lessee, competitor, or other person or entity in any matter related to the Company. Any Employee who pays or receives bribes or kickbacks will be immediately terminated and reported, as warranted, to the appropriate authorities. A kickback or bribe includes giving any item of value with the intent to improperly obtain favorable treatment.


f. Prohibition on Insider Trading


Employees from time to time will possess material non-public information (often referred to as "inside" information) about the Company, an entity with which the Company conducts business, or an entity in which the Company may invest on behalf of clients. Employees (1) must maintain the confidentiality of such information, (2) must not buy, sell or recommend securities of any of the companies in question and (3) must not give this information to another person (often referred to as "tipping"). Information is usually considered material if a reasonable investor would consider this information important in reaching an investment decision.


The Company has adopted the  Insider Trading Policy  to further explain how to comply with the rules that relate to insider trading. All Employees are required to be familiar with the Insider Trading Policy  and to abide by it.


g. Confidential Information


Protecting the confidentiality of the confidential information to which the Company has access is critical to the Company's relationships with its clients, portfolio companies, contract counterparties and vendors and its ability to compete in the marketplace. Numerous laws and regulations prohibit or otherwise regulate the disclosure of various types of confidential information about third parties, clients and others. Confidential information includes all non-public information that might be of use to competitors, or harmful to the Company or its clients, if disclosed. Employees may have access to proprietary information of the Company in the course of their relationships with the Company, including information about the Company's financial condition or results, business strategies, products and services or other Employees.


In order to ensure the proper treatment of confidential information, Employees may not disclose or misuse confidential information of third parties or the Company's confidential proprietary information to which they gain access through their relationships with the Company, except when authorized by the Company or the person to whom the information belongs, or when disclosure is required by law. The obligation continues even after Employees leave the Company. In addition, all proprietary information must be returned prior to leaving the Company. Whether disclosure is required by law is a determination that must be made by the Chief Financial Officer.


Special confidentiality arrangements may be required for certain parties, including outside business associates, consultants, governmental agencies and trade associations, seeking access to confidential information. Employees should be mindful of the following:


·

e-mail messages and attachments containing material non-public information should be treated with discretion and recipients should be made aware of the need to exercise similar discretion;

·

documents and other materials related to non-public matters should be appropriately safeguarded;

·

controls for the reception and oversight of visitors to sensitive areas must be adhered to;

·

sensitive business conversations, whether in person or on the telephone, should be avoided in elevators and other public places; and

·

care should be taken when using cell phone devices, laptop computers, and similar devices in public places.


VI. ETHICAL AND RESPECTFUL WORKPLACE


The Company prohibits harassment, discrimination and retaliation whether engaged in by Employees or by someone not directly connected to the Company (e.g., an outside vendor, consultant or client). Conduct prohibited by this Article VI is unacceptable in the workplace and in any work-related setting outside the workplace, such as during business trips, business meetings and business related social events.


a. Equal Employment Opportunity


It is the policy of the Company to ensure equal employment opportunity without discrimination or harassment on the basis of race, color, national origin, religion, age, sexual orientation, gender, marital status, disability or any other characteristic protected by applicable Federal, state, or local law. The Company's employment practices and decisions adhere to the principles of non-discrimination and equal employment opportunity. All personnel involved in hiring, promotion, transfers, compensation, benefits, termination and all other terms and conditions of employment are made aware of their responsibilities in support of these corporate goals.


b. Non-Discrimination Policy

The Company is committed to a work environment in which all individuals are treated with respect and dignity. Each Employee has the right to work in a professional atmosphere that promotes equal employment opportunities and prohibits discriminatory practices, including harassment. Therefore, the Company expects that all relationships among persons in the office will be free of bias, prejudice and harassment.


c. Anti-Harassment Policy


The Company is committed to maintaining a work environment that is free of discrimination. In keeping with this commitment, the Company will not tolerate unlawful harassment of Employees by anyone, including any supervisor, co-worker or third party. Harassment consists of unwelcome conduct, whether verbal, physical or visual, that is based on a person's race, color, national origin, religion, age, sexual orientation, gender, marital status, disability or other protected characteristic, that (1) has the purpose or effect of creating an intimidating, hostile or offensive work environment; (2) has the purpose or effect of unreasonably interfering with an individual's work performance; or (3) otherwise adversely affects an individual's employment opportunities. Harassment will not be tolerated.


Harassment may include derogatory remarks, epithets, offensive jokes, intimidating or hostile acts, the display of offensive printed, visual or electronic material, or offensive physical actions. Sexual harassment deserves special mention. Unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, or other physical, verbal or visual conduct based on sex constitutes harassment when (1) submission to the conduct is required as a term or condition of employment or is the basis for employment action, or (2) the conduct unreasonably interferes with an individual's work performance or creates an intimidating, hostile or offensive workplace. Sexual harassment may include propositions, innuendo, suggestive comments or unwelcome physical contact.


d. Retaliation


The Company prohibits retaliation against any individual who reports discrimination or harassment or participates in an investigation of such reports. Retaliation against an Employee for reporting discrimination or harassment or for participating in an investigation of a claim of harassment or discrimination is a serious violation of this policy and, like harassment or discrimination itself, will be subject to disciplinary action.


e. Reporting an Incident of Harassment, Discrimination or Retaliation


The Company strongly urges the timely reporting of all incidents of harassment, discrimination or retaliation regardless of the offender's identity or position. Individuals should file their complaints with their immediate supervisor, the Chief Financial Officer or any member of senior management before the conduct becomes severe or pervasive. Individuals should not feel obligated to file their complaints with their immediate supervisor first before bringing the matter to the attention of one of the other designated representatives identified above. To the fullest extent practicable, the Company will maintain the confidentiality of those involved, consistent with the need to investigate alleged harassment and take appropriate action. Misconduct constituting harassment, discrimination or retaliation will be dealt with promptly and appropriately.


Employees who have experienced conduct they believe is contrary to this policy have an obligation to take advantage of this complaint procedure.


VII. INTERACTING WITH GOVERNMENT


a. Prohibition on Gifts to Government Officials and Employees


The various branches and levels of government have different laws restricting gifts, including meals, entertainment, transportation and lodging, which may be provided to government officials and government employees. Employees are prohibited from providing gifts, meals or anything of value to government officials or employees or members of their families without prior written approval from the Chief Financial Officer.


b. Political Contributions and Activities


Laws of certain jurisdictions prohibit the use of Company funds, assets, services, or facilities on behalf of a political party or candidate. Payments of corporate funds to any political party, candidate or campaign may be made only if permitted under applicable law and approved in writing and in advance by the Chief Financial Officer.


Employees' work time may be considered the equivalent of a contribution by the Company. Therefore, Employees will not be paid by the Company for any time spent running for public office, serving as an elected official or campaigning for a political candidate. The Company will not compensate or reimburse Employees, in any form, for a political contribution that Employees intend to make or have made.


c. Lobbying Activities


Laws of some jurisdictions require registration and reporting by anyone who engages in a lobbying activity. Generally, lobbying includes: (1) communicating with any member or employee of a legislative branch of government for the purpose of influencing legislation; (2) communicating with certain government officials for the purpose of influencing government action; or (3) engaging in research or other activities to support or prepare for such communication.


In order for the Company to comply with lobbying laws, Employees must notify the Chief Financial Officer before engaging in any activity on behalf of the Company that might be considered "lobbying" as described above.


d. Bribery of Foreign Officials


Company policy, the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 (the "FCPA") and the laws of many other countries prohibit the Company and its officers, employees and agents from giving or offering to give money or anything of value to a foreign official, a foreign political party, a party official or a candidate for political office in order to influence official acts or decisions of that person or entity, to obtain or retain business, or to secure any improper advantage. A foreign official is an officer or employee of a government or any department, agency, or instrumentality thereof, or of certain international agencies, such as the World Bank or the United Nations, or any person acting in an official capacity on behalf of one of those entities. Officials of government-owned corporations are considered to be foreign officials.


Payments need not be in cash to be illegal. The FCPA prohibits giving or offering to give "anything of value." Over the years, many non-cash items have been the basis of bribery prosecutions, including travel expenses, golf outings, automobiles, and loans with favorable interest rates or repayment terms. Indirect payments made through agents, contractors, or other third parties are also prohibited. Employees may not avoid liability by "turning a blind eye" when circumstances indicate a potential violation of the FCPA. Further information is provided in the  FCPA Policy .


VIII. REPORTING CONCERNS


This policy requires Employees to report any breaches of law, rules, regulations, this Code, any Company policy, including but not limited to the Company's  Insider Trading Policy, FCPA Policy  and  Whistleblower Policy , or the Company's ethical standards, without fear of retaliation.


In addition, violations of applicable Federal securities laws, whether actual, known, apparent or suspected, should be reported promptly to the Chief Financial Officer, a member of the Board of Director or any other person the Company may designate. It is imperative that reporting persons not conduct their own preliminary investigations. Investigations of alleged violations may involve complex legal issues, and an Employee acting on his own may compromise the integrity of an investigation and adversely affect both Employees and the Company.


Any reports of violations will be treated confidentially to the extent permitted by law and reasonably possible, and investigated promptly and appropriately. Any such reports may also be submitted anonymously. Employees are encouraged to consult the Chief Financial Officer with respect to any transaction that may violate this Code and to refrain from any action or transaction that might lead to the appearance of a violation. Any retaliation against an individual who reports a violation is prohibited and constitutes a further violation of this Code. Further information is provided in the Company's  Whistleblower Policy .


IX. VIOLATIONS OF THIS CODE


Violations of this Code and other policies and procedures of the Company could subject the Employee to disciplinary action, including termination of employment. If the violation of this Code also constitutes a violation of law or regulations, the violator may be subject to legal penalties, including the loss of any professional license, fines and other penalties.


X. WAIVERS OF THIS CODE

Any waiver of any provision of this Code for executive officers or directors of the Company may only be made by the Board of Directors and will be promptly disclosed as required by applicable securities law and/or stock exchange rules.


XI. AMENDMENTS AND MODIFICATIONS


The Board of Directors with the Chief Financial Officer will periodically review the adequacy of this Code and the effectiveness of its implementation and shall make amendments or modifications as necessary. All material amendments and modifications shall be subject to the final approval of the Company's management and its Board of Directors as necessary.
