PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

 

This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this prospectus and does not contain all of the information that you should consider in making your investment decision. Before investing in our common stock, you should carefully read this entire prospectus, including our financial statements and the related notes and the information set forth under the headings “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in each case included elsewhere in this prospectus.

 

Company Overview

 

We are a developer of clean energy technologies. Our current focus is on developing an electrolyzer technology to lower the cost of Green Hydrogen production.

 

Hydrogen is the cleanest and most abundant fuel in the universe. It is zero-emission and only produces water vapor when used. However, hydrogen does not exist in its pure form on Earth so it must be extracted. For centuries, scientists have known how to electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen using a device called an electrolyzer. Electrolyzers installed behind a solar farm or wind farm can use renewable electricity to split water, thereby producing Green Hydrogen. However, modern electrolyzers still cost too much. The chemical catalysts that enable the water-splitting reactions are currently made from platinum and iridium – both are very expensive precious metals. These catalysts account for nearly 50% of the cost of the electrolyzer.

 

We are developing technologies to significantly reduce or replace rare earth materials with inexpensive earth abundant materials in electrolyzers to help usher in a Green Hydrogen economy. In a 2020 report, Goldman Sachs estimates that Green Hydrogen will be a $12 trillion market opportunity by 2050.

 

We are also developing innovative technologies to increase the storage capacity, lower the cost and extend the life of lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles or EV. We have previously developed an innovative material technology to reduce the cost per watt of electricity produced by Photovoltaic, or PV, solar modules. We are currently working on a silicon anode material technology intended to reduce the cost of current and future generation of lithium-ion batteries for EVs.

RISK FACTORS

 

An investment in the Company’s common stock involves a high degree of risk. In determining whether to purchase the Company’s common stock, an investor should carefully consider all of the material risks described below, together with the other information contained in this prospectus before making a decision to purchase the Company’s securities. An investor should only purchase the Company’s securities if he or she can afford to suffer the loss of his or her entire investment.

 

Risks Related to Our Business and Our Industry

 

Our limited operating history does not afford investors a sufficient history on which to base an investment decision.

 

We were formed in April 2006 and are currently developing a new technology that has not yet gained market acceptance. There can be no assurance that at this time we will operate profitably or that we will have adequate working capital to meet our obligations as they become due.

 

Investors must consider the risks and difficulties frequently encountered by early stage companies, particularly in rapidly evolving markets. Such risks include the following:

 

  competition;
     
  need for acceptance of products;
     
  ability to continue to develop and extend brand identity;
     
  ability to anticipate and adapt to a competitive market;
     
  ability to effectively manage rapidly expanding operations;
     
  amount and timing of operating costs and capital expenditures relating to expansion of our business, operations, and infrastructure; and
     
  dependence upon key personnel.

 

We cannot be certain that our business strategy will be successful or that we will successfully address these risks. In the event that we do not successfully address these risks, our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected and we may have to curtail our business.

 

We have a history of losses and have never realized revenues to date. We expect to continue to incur losses and no assurance can be given that we will realize revenues. Accordingly, we may never achieve and sustain profitability.

 

As of September 30, 2020, we have an accumulated deficit, of $41,524,226. For the six months ended September 30, 2020, we incurred a net loss of 16,062,126. We expect to continue to incur net losses until we are able to realize revenues to fund our continuing operations. We may fail to achieve any or significant revenues from sales or achieve or sustain profitability. Accordingly, there can be no assurance of when, if ever, we will be profitable or be able to maintain profitability.

 

We have historically raised funds through various capital raising transactions. We will require additional funds in the future to fund our business plans, either through additional equity or debt financings or collaborative agreements or from other sources. We have no commitments to obtain such additional financing, and we may not be able to obtain any such additional financing on terms favorable to us, or at all. In the event we are unable to obtain additional financing, we may be unable to implement our business plan. Even with such financing, we have a history of operating losses and there can be no assurance that we will ever become profitable.

 

We may be unable to manage our growth or implement our expansion strategy.

 

We may not be able to develop our product or implement the other features of our business strategy at the rate or to the extent presently planned. Our projected growth will place a significant strain on our administrative, operational and financial resources. If we are unable to successfully manage our future growth, establish and continue to upgrade our operating and financial control systems, recruit and hire necessary personnel or effectively manage unexpected expansion difficulties, our financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

 

Our revenues will be dependent upon acceptance of our products by the market; the failure of which would cause us to curtail or cease operations.

 

We believe that virtually all of our revenues will come from the sale or license of our products. As a result, we will continue to incur substantial operating losses until such time as we are able to develop our product and generate revenues from the sale or license of our products. There can be no assurance that businesses and customers will adopt our technology and products, or that businesses and prospective customers will agree to pay for or license our products. Our technology and product, when fully developed, may not gain market acceptance due to various factors such as not enough cost savings between our method of producing hydrogen and other more conventional methods. In the event that we are not able to significantly increase the number of customers that purchase or license our products, or if we are unable to charge the necessary prices or license fees, our financial condition and results of operations will be materially and adversely affected.

 

3

 

 

We may not be able to successfully develop and commercialize our technologies which would result in continued losses.

 

While we have made progress in the development of our products, we have generated only minimal revenues and are unable to project when we will achieve profitability, if at all. As is the case with any new technology, we are a development stage company and expect the development process to continue. We may not be able to develop our product offering, develop a customer base and markets, or implement the other features of our business strategy at the rate or to the extent presently planned. Growth beyond the product development stage will place a significant strain on our administrative, operational and financial resources. In addition, our operations will not be able to move out of the development stage without additional funding.

 

We face intense competition, and many of our competitors have substantially greater resources than we do.

 

We operate in a competitive environment that is characterized by price fluctuation and technological change. We will compete with major international and domestic companies. Some of our current and future potential competitors may have greater market recognition and customer bases, longer operating histories and substantially greater financial, technical, marketing, distribution, purchasing, manufacturing, personnel and other resources than we do. In addition, competitors may be developing similar technologies with a cost similar to, or lower than, our projected costs. As a result, they may be able to respond more quickly to changing customer demands or to devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sales of solar and solar-related products than we can.

 

Our business plan relies on sales of our products based on either a demand for truly renewable clean hydrogen or economically produced clean hydrogen. If we fail to compete successfully, our business would suffer and we may lose or be unable to gain market share. Neither the demand for our product nor our ability to manufacture have yet been proven.

 

We believe that our ability to compete depends in part on a number of factors outside of our control, including:

 

  the ability of our competitors to hire, retain and motivate qualified personnel;
     
  the ownership by competitors of proprietary tools to customize systems to the needs of a particular customer;
     
  the price at which others offer comparable services and equipment;
     
  the extent of our competitors’ responsiveness to customer needs; and
     
  installation technology.

 

There can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully against current and future competitors. If we are unable to compete effectively, or if competition results in a deterioration of market conditions, our business and results of operations would be adversely affected.

 

Our business depends on proprietary technology that we may not be able to protect and may infringe on the intellectual property rights of others.

 

Our success will depend, in part, on our technology’s commercial viability and on the strength of our intellectual property rights. We currently hold a patent in the US, but still have a patent pending in the US. There is no guarantee the pending patent will be granted. In addition, any agreements we enter into with our employees, consultants, advisors, customers and strategic partners will contain restrictions on the disclosure and use of trade secrets, inventions and confidential information relating to our technology may not provide meaningful protection in the event of unauthorized use or disclosure.

 

Third parties may assert that our technology, or the products we, our customers or partners commercialize using our technology, infringes upon their proprietary rights. We have yet to complete an infringement analysis and, even if such an analysis were available at the current time, it is virtually impossible for us to be certain that no infringement exists, particularly in our case where our products have not yet been fully developed.

   

We may need to acquire licenses from third parties in order to avoid infringement. Any required license may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all.

 

We could incur substantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us for alleged infringement of another party’s intellectual property rights as well as in enforcing our rights against others, and if we are found to infringe, the manufacture, sale and use of our or our customers’ or partners’ products could be enjoined. Any claims against us, with or without merit, would likely be time-consuming, requiring our management team to dedicate substantial time to addressing the issues presented. Furthermore, the parties bringing claims may have greater resources than we do.

 

4

 

 

We do not maintain theft or casualty insurance and only maintain modest liability and property insurance coverage and therefore, we could incur losses as a result of an uninsured loss.

 

We do not maintain theft, casualty insurance, or property insurance coverage. We cannot assure that we will not incur uninsured liabilities and losses as a result of the conduct of our business. Any such uninsured or insured loss or liability could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

 

If we lose key employees and consultants or are unable to attract or retain qualified personnel, our business could suffer.

 

Our success is highly dependent on our ability to attract and retain qualified scientific, engineering and management personnel. We are highly dependent on our CEO, David Lee.  The loss of Mr. Lee’s service could have a material adverse effect on our operations. Mr. Lee is employed on “at will” basis. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that he will remain associated with us. Our management’s efforts will be critical to us as we continue to develop our technology and as we attempt to transition from a development stage company to a company with commercialized products and services. If we were to lose Mr. Lee’s or the services of the development team at UCLA, or the services of the consultants, we may experience difficulties in competing effectively, developing our technology and implementing our business strategies.

 

The loss of strategic alliances used in the development of our products and technology could impede our ability to complete our product and result in a material adverse effect causing the business to suffer.

 

We pursue strategic alliances with other companies in areas where collaboration can produce technological and industry advancement. We have entered into the sponsored research agreement with The Regents of the University of California on Behalf of its Los Angeles Campus which is set to terminate December 31, 2021. If we are unable to extend the terms of the agreements, we could suffer delays in product development or other operational difficulties which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

 

There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Our independent public accounting firm in their report dated March 9, 2020 included an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt in our ability to continue as a going concern without additional capital becoming available. Going concern contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business over a reasonable length of time. Our ability to continue as a going concern ultimately is dependent on our ability to generate a profit which is dependent upon our ability to obtain additional equity or debt financing, attain further operating efficiencies and, ultimately, to achieve profitable operations. As a result, our financial statements do not reflect any adjustment which would result from our failure to continue to operate as a going concern. Any such adjustment, if necessary, would materially affect the value of our assets.

 

The Covid-19 pandemic may negatively affect our operations.

 

The COVID-19 pandemic is having widespread, rapidly evolving, and unpredictable impacts on global society, economies, financial markets, and business practices. The continuing impacts of COVID-19 are highly unpredictable and could be significant, and may have an adverse effect on our business, operations and our future financial performance.

 

The impact of the pandemic on our business, operations and future financial performance could include, but is not limited to, that:

 

We may experience delays in our product development;

 

The rapid and broad-based shift to a remote working environment creates inherent productivity, connectivity, and oversight challenges.

 

Volatility in the equity markets could affect the value of our equity to shareholders and have an impact on our ability to raise capital.

 

We do not maintain theft or casualty insurance, and only maintain modest liability and property insurance coverage and therefore we would incur losses as a result of an uninsured loss.  

 

We do not maintain theft or casualty insurance and we have modest liability and property insurance coverage. We cannot assure you that we will not incur uninsured liabilities and losses as a result of the conduct of our business. Any such uninsured loss or liability could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

 

There is a limited trading market for our common stock.

 

Our common stock is not listed on any national securities exchange. Accordingly, investors may find it more difficult to buy and sell our shares than if our common stock was traded on an exchange. Although our common stock is quoted on the OTC Pink, it is an unorganized, inter-dealer, over-the-counter market which provides significantly less liquidity than the Nasdaq Capital Market or other national securities exchange. Further, there is limited trading in our common stock. These factors may have an adverse impact on the trading and price of our common stock.

  

Our common stock could be subject to extreme volatility.

 

The trading price of our common stock may be affected by a number of factors, including events described in the risk factors set forth in this prospectus, as well as our operating results, financial condition and other events or factors. In addition to the uncertainties relating to future operating performance and the profitability of operations, factors such as variations in interim financial results or various, as yet unpredictable, factors, many of which are beyond our control, may have a negative effect on the market price of our common stock. In recent years, broad stock market indices, in general, and smaller capitalization companies, in particular, have experienced substantial price fluctuations. In a volatile market, we may experience wide fluctuations in the market price of our common stock and wide bid-ask spreads. These fluctuations may have a negative effect on the market price of our common stock. In addition, the securities market has, from time to time, experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are not related to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

 

There is a large number of authorized but unissued shares of capital stock available for issuance, which may result in substantial dilution to existing shareholders.

 

Our articles of Incorporation authorized the issuance of up to 3,000,000,000 shares of common stock, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001, of which 474,286,424 shares of common stock and 1,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock are stock are outstanding as of January 22, 2021 (excluding shares issuable upon conversion or exercise of outstanding convertible notes, options and warrants). Subject to our total authorized shares, our Board of Directors has the ability to authorize the issuance of additional shares of common stock and preferred stock without shareholder approval. Such issuances will result in substantial dilution to existing shareholders. In addition, the availability of such a large number of capital stock could be utilized, under certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company. Further, our issuance of common stock upon conversion or exercise of outstanding convertible notes, warrants, and options may result in substantial dilution to our stockholders, which may have a negative effect on the price of our common stock.

 

We have never paid common stock dividends and have no plans to pay dividends in the future, as a result our common stock may be less valuable because a return on an investor’s investment will only occur if our stock price appreciates.

 

Holders of shares of our common stock are entitled to receive such dividends as may be declared by our Board of Directors. To date, we have paid no cash dividends on our shares of common stock and we do not expect to pay cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. We intend to retain future earnings, if any, to provide funds for operations of our business. Therefore, any return investors in our common stock will be in the form of appreciation, if any, in the market value of our shares of common stock. There can be no assurance that shares of our common stock will appreciate in value or even maintain the price at which our stockholders have purchased their shares.

 

6

 

 

Our common stock is subject to the SEC’s penny stock rules.

 

Unless our common stock is listed on a national securities exchange, including the Nasdaq Capital Market, or we have stockholders’ equity of $5,000,000 or less and our common stock has a market price per share of less than $5.00, transactions in our common stock will be subject to the SEC’s “penny stock” rules. If our common stock remains subject to the “penny stock” rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, broker-dealers may find it difficult to effectuate customer transactions and trading activity in our securities may be adversely affected. 

 

In accordance with these rules, broker-dealers participating in transactions in low-priced securities must first deliver a risk disclosure document that describes the risks associated with such stocks, the broker-dealer’s duties in selling the stock, the customer’s rights and remedies and certain market and other information. Furthermore, the broker-dealer must make a suitability determination approving the customer for low-priced stock transactions based on the customer’s financial situation, investment experience and objectives. Broker-dealers must also disclose these restrictions in writing to the customer, obtain specific written consent from the customer, and provide monthly account statements to the customer. The effect of these restrictions will probably decrease the willingness of broker-dealers to make a market in our common stock, decrease liquidity of our common stock and increase transaction costs for sales and purchases of our common stock as compared to other securities. Our management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock market.

 

This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.

 

Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders, which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.

 

Our board of directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our board of directors has the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, our board of directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders of preferred stock the right to our assets upon liquidation, or the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock. In addition, our board of directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into our common stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.

 

On January 15, 2021, as approved by the Board, the Company filed the Certificate of Designation (the “Certificate of Designation”) for its newly-created Series B Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of Nevada designating 1,000 shares of its authorized preferred stock as Series B Preferred Stock. The shares of Series B Preferred Stock have a par value of $0.0001 per share. The Series B Preferred Stock does not have a dividend rate or liquidation preference and are not convertible into shares of our common stock. The 1,000 shares of Series Be Preferred have been issued to David Lee, our Chief Executive Officer.

For so long as any shares of the Series B Preferred Stock remain issued and outstanding, the holders thereof, voting separately as a class, shall have voting power equal to 51% of the total vote (representing a super majority voting power) on all shareholder matters of the Company. Such vote shall be determined by the holder(s) of a majority of the then issued and outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock.  

 

The shares of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be automatically redeemed by us at their par value on the first to occur of the following triggering events: (i) a date forty five (45) days after the effective date of the Certificate of Designation, (ii) on the date that Mr. Lee ceases, for any reason, to serve as officer, director or consultant of the Company, or (ii) on the date that the Company’s shares of common stock first trade on any national securities exchange and such listing is conditioned upon the elimination of the preferential voting rights of the Series B Preferred Stock set forth in the Certificate of Designation.

 

Additionally, we are prohibited from adopting any amendments to our Bylaws, Articles of Incorporation, as amended, as set forth in the Certificate of Designation, without the affirmative vote of at least 66-2/3% of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock. However, we may, by any means authorized by law and without any vote of the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock, make technical, corrective, administrative or similar changes to such Certificate of Designation that do not, individually or in the aggregate, adversely affect the rights or preferences of the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock

 

The issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock may prevent or frustrate attempts by stockholders to change the board of directors or current management and could make a third-party acquisition of the Company difficult which could limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute then-existing shareholders’ percentage ownership of the Company.

 

Given our plans and expectations that we will need additional capital and personnel, we anticipate that we will need to issue additional shares of common stock or securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options or warrants. The issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then current stockholders.

Corporate Information 

 

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 24, 2006, as BioSolar Labs, Inc. Our name was changed to BioSolar, Inc. on June 8, 2006. Our principal executive offices are located at 27936 Lost Canyon Road, Suite 202, Santa Clarita, California 91387, and our telephone number is (661) 251-0001. Our fiscal year end is December 31.

 

Overview

 

We are a developer of clean energy technologies. Our current focus is on developing an electrolyzer technology to lower the cost of Green Hydrogen production.

 

Hydrogen is the cleanest and most abundant fuel in the universe. It is zero-emission and only produces water vapor when used. However, hydrogen does not exist in its pure form on Earth so it must be extracted. For centuries, scientists have known how to electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen using a device called an electrolyzer. Electrolyzers installed behind a solar farm or wind farm can use renewable electricity to split water, thereby producing Green Hydrogen. However, modern electrolyzers still cost too much. The chemical catalysts that enable the water-splitting reactions are currently made from platinum and iridium – both are very expensive precious metals. These catalysts account for nearly 50% of the cost of the electrolyzer.

 

We are developing technologies to significantly reduce or replace rare earth materials with inexpensive earth abundant materials in electrolyzers to help usher in a Green Hydrogen economy. In a 2020 report, Goldman Sachs estimates that Green Hydrogen will be a $12 trillion market opportunity by 2050.

 

We are also developing innovative technologies to increase the storage capacity, lower the cost and extend the life of lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles or EV. We have previously developed an innovative material technology to reduce the cost per watt of electricity produced by Photovoltaic, or PV, solar modules. We are currently working on a silicon anode material technology intended to reduce the cost of current and future generation of lithium-ion batteries for EVs.

 

Industry Overview

 

Hydrogen is the most abundant and prevalent clean energy in the universe. 73% of the Sun is made up of hydrogen.

 

On a weight basis, hydrogen (142 MJ/kg) contains 3X as much energy as gasoline (46 MJ/kg), and 200X as much energy as lithium-ion batteries (0.6 MJ/kg).

 

It can be used in fuel cells to power electric vehicles or cities.

 

It can be combusted in gas turbines or internal combustion engines for power generation.

 

It is a zero-emission clean fuel and produces only water vapor when used.

 

It is the main ingredient in fertilizers that feed our hungry world.

 

Hydrogen doesn’t exist in its pure form, so it must be extracted. According to a 2020 report from the U.S. Department of Energy, more than 98% of hydrogen in the world are made by steam reforming of natural gas (“Grey Hydrogen”) or coal gasification (“Brown Hydrogen”). Both sources of hydrogen are basically different forms of dirty, carbon heavy, and non-renewable fossil fuels. This does nothing to help flight climate change or lead to renewable energy and a sustainable planet.

 

12

 

 

According to a 2020 research report from Grand View Research, hydrogen is already a big business today with an annual market size of more than $117 billion in 2019. Developing cost-competitive Green Hydrogen made from renewable resources such as solar, wind and water can significantly expand the market for hydrogen. At this time, electrolyzer technology represents the most certain way forward.

 

Solar or Wind Energy + Water + Electrolyzers = Green Hydrogen

 

Abundant sources of Green Hydrogen can then power a clean energy world of fast charging fuel cell electric vehicles, light up our homes, make our fertilizers and ultimately replace many forms of fossil fuels.

 

An overwhelming amount of scientific evidence shows that carbon emissions from fossil fuels have contributed to increasing global climate change. Policymakers around the world have accelerated programs to enable the development and adoption of renewable energy. The U.S has been slow to adopt such programs but is quickly becoming a formidable force. According to the World Resources Institute, more than U.S. 14 states have legislative mandates requiring 100% renewable electricity, some as early as 2040. Both the U.K. and European Union are targeting net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. 

 

With this global backdrop and concerted actions toward climate policies and clean energy, we believe the Green Hydrogen revolution is ready to take off. The Sun doesn’t always shine, and the wind doesn’t always blow. Therefore, green energy from solar and wind power is inherently intermittent and unreliable as a primary source of power. However, by converting that green electricity into Green Hydrogen, and it can be used anywhere and anytime for electricity, chemicals, heating and all necessities of life.

 

Because of the versatility of hydrogen, Green Hydrogen has the potential to fundamentally improve the world economy and usher in a new era of economic prosperity, sustainability, and energy independence to those with access to solar, wind and water… which describes most of the entire world.

 

In a 2020 report, Bank of America said that hydrogen will take 25% of all oil demand by 2050 and that Green Hydrogen economy could be worth more than $11 trillion by 2050. The firm also compared Green Hydrogen to pre-2007 smartphones and the Internet prior to the dot-com boom.

 

Electrolyzer Technology

 

For more than 200 years, scientists have known how to split water into hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2). By simply placing two metal electrodes into a jar of salted water (electrolytic solution) and applying an electrical voltage between them, H2 and O2 will bubble up at the separate electrodes. This process is called electrolysis and the device is called an electrolyzer. If the source of electricity is renewable such as solar or wind, then the resulting hydrogen is a zero-greenhouse gas renewable resource – Green Hydrogen.

 

There are two primary types of commercial electrolyzers. The original alkaline electrolyzer and the modern proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzer. However, neither technology can currently produce Green Hydrogen at scale that is cost completive with Grey or Brown Hydrogen sourced from fossil fuels.

 

13

 

 

PEM electrolysis has the advantage of higher efficiency and quickly reacting to fluctuating input energy, which is ideally matched to the fluctuating nature of solar and wind energy. Its smaller footprint also makes it ideal for distributed systems, which is how most renewable energy systems are implemented.

 

PEM electrolyzers are expensive because they rely on rare earth materials such as platinum and iridium – literally stardust found only in asteroids – as chemical catalysts for the water-splitting reactions. According to National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), these materials account for nearly 50% of the capital cost of PEM electrolyzers. Additionally, the cost of electricity contributes to over 50% of hydrogen production costs.

 

Our technology is aimed at lowering the cost of catalysts and key components in PEM electrolyzers by:

 

Replacing rare earth materials with inexpensive earth abundant materials,

 

Significantly reducing the amount of rare earth materials used, and

 

Reducing energy consumption

Applications of Green Hydrogen

 

Unlike lithium-ion where it is simply a battery technology, Green Hydrogen is an economy. There are many applications for Green Hydrogen, some with larger markets than others. Here are just a few.

 

 

(Source: U.S. DOE)

 

Green Electric Grid - The electric grid is finicky, sometimes it needs a lot of electricity sometimes it doesn’t. Unused electricity from solar and wind farms are wasted if it is not used immediately. The Sun doesn’t always shine, and the wind doesn’t always blow, and this makes solar and wind sourced electricity unreliable. One solution is to use an electrolyzer system to convert the excess solar/wind electricity into hydrogen and store it in inexpensive nearby underground caverns. When electricity demand spikes, the hydrogen can be converted back into electricity through a fuel cell. This is a very scalable solution as opposed to miles and miles of very expensive grid-scale battery systems. In fact, the Advanced Clean Energy Storage project in Utah aims to do just this by building the world’s largest storage facility for 1,000 megawatts of clean power, partly by putting hydrogen into underground salt caverns.

 

Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles (FCEV) - Perhaps the most exciting application of hydrogen is the direct use in fuel cell electric vehicles. A hydrogen tank in a passenger car can be filled in under 5 minutes. The only tailpipe emission is water. Big name car manufacturers such as Toyota, Hyundai, BMW, Mercedes-Benz all have FCEVs in development. China is committing to putting 1,000,000 FCEVs on the road by 2030.

 

Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV) - BEV and FCEV can coexist just like diesel and gasoline cars coexist today. Battery EVs running on electricity generated through the Green Electric Grid is a beneficiary and indirect user of hydrogen technology.

 

Hydrogen Fueling Stations - Electrolyzers are well suited and scalable for distributed onsite Green Hydrogen generation in fueling station applications. With green electricity from a nearby solar array or renewable electric grid, Green Hydrogen can be produced anywhere and anytime. This distributed model of hydrogen production eliminates the need for expensive transportation from a centralized facility.

 

15

 

 

Lower Carbon Gas Infrastructure - Green Hydrogen can serve as a steppingstone to a lower carbon footprint natural gas supply. Southern California Gas, and others, have demonstrated that the existing natural gas pipelines that supply gas to our cooking stoves and homes can safely contain 5-10% hydrogen without any modifications. This means that an electrolyzer system near a natural gas plant can inject Green Hydrogen directly into the existing gas infrastructure, lowering the carbon footprint of our meals and our warm homes.

 

Air Taxis of the Future - Hydrogen has 200 times the theoretical energy of lithium-ion batteries per kilogram. In the emerging but potentially revolutionary air mobility market, small electric aircrafts, such as the Skai air tax drone, hydrogen is the obvious choice because weight matters. According to Skai, battery-powered air mobility vehicles are projected to have flight durations of less than half an hour before needing to recharge – Skai’s hydrogen fuel cells give them the ability to fly continuously for up to 4 hours or more with higher capacity auxiliary tanks.

 

Research and Development

 

Our electrolyzer technology research and development is conducted at the University of California at Los Angeles through a sponsored research agreement. The current program is focused on replacing iridium with earth abundant materials that meet or exceed the performance characteristics of iridium. We have also identified additional components and materials in electrolyzers where meaningful cost reductions can be performed. While iridium is the oxygen catalyst, its counterpart on the hydrogen side is platinum, a material so rare that only 200 tons are mined every year. Another critical component is the porous transport layer (“PTL”), aka gas diffusion layer, which facilitates the movement of water and gases to and from the catalyst surfaces. According to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, the catalysts, membrane and PTL assembly account for more than 50%-75% of the capital cost of the electrolyzer stack.

 

In parallel to our Green Hydrogen technology program described above, we are developing a new material processing technology to produce Silicon Oxide Composite anode material. Silicon Oxide Composite Anode has recently received significant interest because of its superior cycle and calendar life performance. We anticipate that a new processing technology can be developed to produce a type of Silicon Oxide Composite anode material that will significantly lower the cost of lithium-ion batteries for EVs.

 

Marketing Strategy

 

We will begin marketing our electrolyzer catalyst technologies as soon as a tangible form of quantitative performance demonstration becomes available. Our marketing plan includes engaging with manufacturers of existing electrolyzer component and delivery infrastructure, as well as identifying and developing relationships with potential licensing partners with large scale hydrogen generation and supply logistics all over the world.

 

We will begin marketing our silicon oxide processing technology in partnership with our joint development partners to electric vehicle manufacturers and suppliers of EV batteries when the demonstration of our scaled-up material processing technology becomes available. Potential licensing partners exist in the following industries: electric vehicles, consumer electronics and power tools.

 

We are currently outsourcing our promotion efforts to a public relations firm that is assisting us with comprehensive advertising and promotion of the Company.

Compliance with Environmental Laws and Regulations

 

Our operations are subject to local, state and federal laws and regulations governing environmental quality and pollution control. To date, our compliance with these regulations has had no material effect on our operations, capital, earnings, or competitive position, and the cost of such compliance has not been material. We are unable to assess or predict at this time what effect additional regulations or legislation could have on our activities.

 

Intellectual Property

 

On May 19, 2011, we filed a U.S. patent to protect the intellectual property rights for “Photovoltaic Module Backsheet, Materials for Use in Module Backsheet and Process for Making the Same,” application number 13/093,549.  The inventor listed on the patent application is Stanley Levy, our former Chief Technology Officer. The Company is listed as assignee. This patent was issued on July 14, 2015.

 

On March 26, 2018, North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University filed a U.S. patent application U.S. Serial No. 62/473,772 titled “Prelithiated Silicon Particles for Lithium Ion Batteries”, and we signed an Exclusive License Agreement for the use of the technology effective September 25, 2017. The patent was issued on December 29, 2020.

 

On May 19, 2020, we filed a provisional U.S. patent application to protect the intellectual property rights for “Silicon Alloy Anode for High Power Batteries,” application number 63027154. The inventor listed on the patent application is David Lee, our Chief Executive Officer. The Company is listed as assignee. We rely upon confidentiality agreements signed by our employees, consultants and third parties to protect our intellectual property.

 

Manufacturing and Distribution

 

We currently do not have any mechanism for the manufacture and distribution of our own technology products, nor do we have adequate financing to undertake these efforts on our own. BioBacksheet is currently available for licensing only.

 

Competition

 

There are a number of companies developing technologies for catalysts intended for hydrogen electrolyzers. We expect a high level of competition, but the market opportunity is very large.

 

There are a number of companies manufacturing lithium-ion batteries including, Panasonic, Samsung, LG Chem, and Tesla. We plan to seek licensing arrangements for our lithium-ion battery technology with a select group of companies such as the ones listed above, and do not expect to be their direct competition.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our unaudited financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to impairment of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, deferred tax assets and fair value computation using a Binomial lattice valuation model. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions, such as the trading value of our common stock and estimated future undiscounted cash flows, that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions; however, we believe that our estimates, including those for the above-described items, are reasonable.  

 

19

 

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements. Significant estimates made in preparing these financial statements, include the estimate of useful lives of property and equipment, the deferred tax valuation allowance, derivative liabilities and the fair value of stock options. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Our cash, cash equivalents, investments, inventory, prepaid expenses, and accounts payable are stated at cost which approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

Management reviewed currently issued pronouncements during the three months ended September 30, 2020, and does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying condensed unaudited financial statements.

 

Results of Operations – Three Months Ended September 30, 2020 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2019

 

Operating Expenses

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses increased by $19,217 to $122,477 for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $103,260 for the prior period ended September 30, 2019. This increase in G&A expenses was the result of an increase in salary expense and professional fees.

 

Research and Development

 

Research and Development (“R&D”) expenses decreased by $25,721 to $34,750 for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $60,471 for the prior period ended September 30, 2019. This overall decrease in R&D expenses was the result of a decrease in consulting services.

 

Depreciation

 

Depreciation expense for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $1,092 and $2,752, respectively. 

 

Other Income/(Expenses)

 

Other income and (expenses) increased by $(15,214,361) to $(15,903,864) for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $(689,503) for the prior period ended September 30, 2019. The increase in other income and (expenses) was the result of an increase in non-cash gain on change in fair value of the derivative instruments of $15,240,756, a decrease in interest expense of $26,405, which includes non-cash expense of amortization of debt discount in the amount of $21,708, and interest income of $47. The increase in other income and (expenses) was primarily due to the net change in the fair value of the derivative instruments.

 

Net Income (Loss)

 

Our net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was $(16,062,126), compared to a net loss of $(855,986) for the prior period ended September 30, 2019. The increase in net loss was due to an increase in non-cash other income (expenses) associated with the net change in derivative instruments estimated each period. These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility, variable conversion prices based on market prices as defined in the respective agreements and probabilities of certain outcomes based on management projections. These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period and to management’s judgment; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material. The Company has not generated any revenues.

Depreciation

 

Depreciation expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $3,274 and $5,798, respectively. 

 

Other Income/(Expenses)

 

Other income and (expenses) increased by $(18,728,371) to $(16,529,993) for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $2,198,378 for the prior period ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in other income and (expenses) was the result of an increase in non-cash loss on change in fair value of the derivative instruments of $18,775,145, and an increase in interest income of $42, with a decrease in interest expense of $46,732, which includes non-cash expense of amortization of debt discount in the amount of $38,816,. The increase in other income and (expenses) was primarily due to the net change in the fair value of the derivative instruments and amortization of debt discount.

 

Net Income (Loss)

 

Our net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $(16,993,385), compared to a net income of $1,684,695 for the prior period ended September 30, 2019. The increase in net loss was due to an increase in non-cash other income (expenses) associated with the net change in derivative instruments estimated each period. These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility, variable conversion prices based on market prices as defined in the respective agreements and probabilities of certain outcomes based on management projections. These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period and to management’s judgment; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material. The Company has not generated any revenues during the nine months ended September 30, 2020. 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. Significant factors in the management of liquidity are funds generated by operations, levels of accounts receivable and accounts payable and capital expenditures.

 

The unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result if we are unable to continue as a going concern. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we did not generate any revenues, incurred a net loss of $16,993,385, due to an overall change in non-cash derivative liability, and used cash of $449,028 in operations. As of September 30, 2020, we had a working capital deficit of $27,066,309 and a shareholders’ deficit of $28,570,902. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

In the three months ended September 30, 2020, we obtained funding through the sale of our convertible debt. Management believes that we will be able to continue to raise funds through the sale of our securities to existing and new investors. Management believes that funding from existing and prospective new investors and future revenue will provide the additional cash needed to meet our obligations as they become due and will allow the development of our core business operations. No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing or cause substantial dilution for our stockholders, in case of equity financing. 

 

As of September 30, 2020, we had a working capital deficit of $27,066,309 compared to a working capital deficit of $10,048,922 for the year ended December 31, 2019. This increase in working capital deficit of $17,289,203 was due primarily to an increase in accounts payable, and accrued expenses, derivative liability associated with our outstanding notes, with a decrease in prepaid expenses, and convertible notes.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we used $449,028 of cash for operating activities, as compared to $532,620 for the prior period ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in the use of cash for operating activities for the current period was a result of a decrease in prepaid expenses, compared to the prior nine months ended September 30, 2019.

  

Cash provided from financing activities was $478,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to $523,500 for the prior period ended September 30, 2020. The decrease was due to decline in equity financing during the current period. The convertible notes are convertible into shares of common stock, which have limitations on conversion. The lender is limited to no more than a 4.99% beneficial ownership of the outstanding shares of common stock. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon raising capital through financing transactions and future revenue. Our capital needs have primarily been met from the proceeds of the sale of our securities, as we currently have not generated any revenues. 

 

Our independent auditors, in their report on our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019, expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements as of September 30, 2020 have been prepared under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern ultimately is dependent upon our ability to generate revenue, which is dependent upon our ability to obtain additional equity or debt financing, attain further operating efficiencies and, ultimately, to achieve profitable operations. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Plan of Operation and Financing Needs

 

We are engaged in the development of innovative technologies that increase the capacity and reduce the cost of storing electrical energy. We are currently focusing on developing a high capacity silicon anode material technology to increase the storage capacity and reduce cost of the future generation of lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles by 2021.  

 

Our plan of operation within the next three months is to utilize our cash balances to work on developing a new EV battery material processing technology.  We believe that our current cash and investment balances will be sufficient to support development activity and general and administrative expenses for the next two months. Management estimates that it will require additional cash resources during 2020, based upon its current operating plan and condition. We do not expect increased expenses during the third quarter of 2020.  We will be investigating additional financing alternatives, including equity and/or debt financing. There is no assurance that capital in any form would be available to us, and if available, on terms and conditions that are acceptable. If we are unable to obtain sufficient funds during the next three months, we may be forced to reduce the size of our organization, which could have a material adverse impact on, or cause us to curtail and/or cease the development of our products

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of September 30, 2020, we did not have any off- balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, result of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.

 

 

Results of Operations – Year Ended December 31, 2019 Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2018-

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses increased by $5,026 to $428,668 for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to $423,642 for the prior period December 31, 2018. This increase in G&A expenses was the result of an increase in professional fees of $2,943 and insurance of $3,372, with an overall decrease of $1,289 in other G&A expenses.

  

Research and Development

 

Research and Development (“R&D”) expenses increased by $25,080 to $264,687 for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to $239,607 for the prior period ended December 31, 2018. This overall increase in R&D expenses was the result of an increase in corporate outside services and consultant fees.

 

Depreciation and amortization Expense

 

Depreciation and amortization expense for the year ended December 31, 2019 decreased by $787 to $6,890 compared to $6,103 for the prior year ended December 31, 2018. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in value of the fixed assets.

 

Other Income/(Expenses)

 

Other income and (expenses) decreased by $13,989,936 to $4,822,610 of other income for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to $(9,167,326) of other expense for the prior period ended December 31, 2018. The decrease in non-cash loss on change in fair value of the derivative instruments of $14,168,409, interest expense in the amount of $564,015, which includes the net change in amortization of debt discount in the amount of $531,214, and a decrease in loss on conversion of debt of $385,531, and interest income of $10. The decrease in other income and (expenses) was primarily due to the non-cash net change in derivatives for our outstanding convertible promissory notes.

 

Net Loss

 

Our net income was $4,122,365 for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to a net loss of $9,866,829 for the prior period ended December 31, 2018. The increase in net income was due to an increase in non-cash other income (expenses) associated with the net change in derivative instruments estimated each period. These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility, variable conversion prices based on market prices as defined in the respective agreements and probabilities of certain outcomes based on the calculated estimates. These inputs are used to determine the fair value of the derivative liabilities and are subject to significant changes from period to period based on these valuations, therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material. The Company has not generated any revenues.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of December 31, 2019, we had $10,048,922 in working capital deficit as compared to $15,062,687 for the prior year ended December 31, 2018. The decrease in working capital deficit was due primarily to a decrease in cash, accounts payable, and convertible debt, with an increase in prepaid expenses, accrued expenses, and derivative liability.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company used $718,403 of cash for operating activities, as compared to $630,979 for the prior year ended December 31, 2018. The increase in the use of cash for operating activities was a result of an increase in insurance, research and development, and professional fees in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 compared to December 31, 2018. The Company is focused on development of silicon anode additive technology for next generation lithium-ion batteries.

 

Cash used in investing activities was $0 for the year ended December 31, 2019 as compared to cash used by investing activities of $5,770 for the prior year ended December 31, 2018. In the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company purchased office equipment with no spend on investing activities in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.

 

Cash provided from financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2019 was $697,500 as compared to $600,000 for the prior year ended December 31, 2018. Our capital needs have primarily been met from the proceeds of convertible debt offerings. We are currently in the development stage of our business and have no revenues.

 

Our financial statements as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 have been prepared under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern. Our independent registered public accounting firm has issued their report dated March 9, 2020 that included an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt in our ability to continue as a going concern without additional capital becoming available. Our ability to continue as a going concern ultimately is dependent on our ability to generate a profit which is dependent upon our ability to obtain additional equity or debt financing, attain further operating efficiencies and, ultimately, achieve profitable operations. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

 

Description of Common Stock

 

We are authorized to issue 3,000,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share.

 

Holders of the Company’s common stock are entitled to one vote for each share on all matters submitted to a stockholder vote. Holders of common stock do not have cumulative voting rights. Therefore, holders of a majority of the shares of common stock voting for the election of directors can elect all of the directors to our board of directors. Subject to the rights of the Series B Preferred Stock, discussed below, Holders of the Company’s common stock representing a majority of the voting power of the Company’s common stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, are necessary to constitute a quorum at any meeting of stockholders. A vote by the holders of a majority of the Company’s outstanding shares is required to effectuate certain fundamental corporate changes such as a liquidation, merger or an amendment to the Company’s articles of incorporation

 

Subject to the rights of preferred stockholders (if any), holders of the Company’s common stock are entitled to share in all dividends that the Board of Directors, in its discretion, declares from legally available funds. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up, each outstanding share entitles its holder to participate pro rata in all assets that remain after payment of liabilities and after providing for each class of stock, if any, having preference over the common stock. The Company’s common stock has no pre-emptive rights, no conversion rights, and there are no redemption provisions applicable to the Company’s common stock.

  

Description of Preferred Stock

 

We are authorized to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share, from time to time, in one or more series. We do not have any outstanding shares of preferred stock.

 

Our articles of incorporation authorizes our board of directors to issue preferred stock from time to time with such designations, preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, dividends or limitations as to dividends or other distributions, qualifications or terms or conditions of redemption as shall be determined by the board of directors for each class or series of stock. Preferred stock is available for possible future financings or acquisitions and for general corporate purposes without further authorization of stockholders unless such authorization is required by applicable law, or any securities exchange or market on which our stock is then listed or admitted to trading.

 

Our board of directors may authorize the issuance of preferred stock with voting or conversion rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of common stock. The issuance of preferred stock, while providing flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions and other corporate purposes could, under some circumstances, have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change-in-control of the Company.

 

On January 14, 2021, our Board approved the designation of 1,000 shares Series B Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”), and the issuance of the Shares to our Chief Executive Officer, David Lee.

 

On January 15, 2021, as approved by the Board, we filed the Certificate of Designation (the “Certificate of Designation”) for its newly-created Series B Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of Nevada designating 1,000 shares of its authorized preferred stock as Series B Preferred Stock. The shares of Series B Preferred Stock have a par value of $0.0001 per share. The Series B Preferred Stock does not have a dividend rate or liquidation preference and are not convertible into shares of our common stock.

 

For so long as any shares of the Series B Preferred Stock remain issued and outstanding, the holders thereof, voting separately as a class, shall have voting power equal to 51% of the total vote (representing a super majority voting power) on all shareholder matters of the Company. Such vote shall be determined by the holder(s) of a majority of the then issued and outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock.

 

28

 

 

The shares of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be automatically redeemed by us at their par value on the first to occur of the following triggering events: (i) a date forty five (45) days after the effective date of the Certificate of Designation, (ii) on the date that Mr. Lee ceases, for any reason, to serve as officer, director or consultant of the Company, or (ii) on the date that the Company’s shares of common stock first trade on any national securities exchange and such listing is conditioned upon the elimination of the preferential voting rights of the Series B Preferred Stock set forth in the Certificate of Designation.

 

Additionally, we are prohibited from adopting any amendments to our Bylaws, Articles of Incorporation, as amended, as set forth in the Certificate of Designation, without the affirmative vote of at least 66-2/3% of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock. However, we may by any means authorized by law and without any vote of the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock, make technical, corrective, administrative or similar changes to such Certificate of Designation that do not, individually or in the aggregate, adversely affect the rights or preferences of the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock.

 

Anti-Takeover Provisions of Nevada State Law

 

Certain anti-takeover provisions of Nevada law could have the effect of delaying or preventing a third-party from acquiring us, even if the acquisition arguably could benefit our stockholders.

 

Nevada’s “combinations with interested stockholders” statutes, NRS 78.411 through 78.444, inclusive, prohibit specified types of business “combinations” between certain Nevada corporations and any person deemed to be an “interested stockholder” for two years after such person first becomes an “interested stockholder” unless the corporation’s board of directors approves the combination, or the transaction by which such person becomes an “interested stockholder”, in advance, or unless the combination is approved by the board of directors and sixty percent of the corporation’s voting power not beneficially owned by the interested stockholder, its affiliates and associates. Further, in the absence of prior approval certain restrictions may apply even after such two year period. However, these statutes do not apply to any combination of a corporation and an interested stockholder after the expiration of four years after the person first became an interested stockholder. For purposes of these statutes, an “interested stockholder” is any person who is (1) the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of ten percent or more of the voting power of the outstanding voting shares of the corporation, or (2) an affiliate or associate of the corporation and at any time within the two previous years was the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of ten percent or more of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of the corporation. The definition of the term “combination” is sufficiently broad to cover most significant transactions between a corporation and an “interested stockholder.” These statutes generally apply to Nevada corporations with 200 or more stockholders of record. However, a Nevada corporation may elect in its articles of incorporation not to be governed by these particular laws, but if such election is not made in the corporation’s original articles of incorporation, the amendment (1) must be approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of stock representing a majority of the outstanding voting power of the corporation not beneficially owned by interested stockholders or their affiliates and associates, and (2) is not effective until 18 months after the vote approving the amendment and does not apply to any combination with a person who first became an interested stockholder on or before the effective date of the amendment. We have made such an election in our original articles of incorporation.

 

Nevada’s “acquisition of controlling interest” statutes, NRS 78.378 through 78.379, inclusive, contain provisions governing the acquisition of a controlling interest in certain Nevada corporations. These “control share” laws provide generally that any person that acquires a “controlling interest” in certain Nevada corporations may be denied voting rights, unless a majority of the disinterested stockholders of the corporation elects to restore such voting rights. Absent such provision in our bylaws, these laws would apply to us as of a particular date if we were to have 200 or more stockholders of record (at least 100 of whom have addresses in Nevada appearing on our stock ledger at all times during the 90 days immediately preceding that date) and do business in the State of Nevada directly or through an affiliated corporation, unless our articles of incorporation or bylaws in effect on the tenth day after the acquisition of a controlling interest provide otherwise. These laws provide that a person acquires a “controlling interest” whenever a person acquires shares of a subject corporation that, but for the application of these provisions of the NRS, would enable that person to exercise (1) one fifth or more, but less than one third, (2) one third or more, but less than a majority or (3) a majority or more, of all of the voting power of the corporation in the election of directors. Once an acquirer crosses one of these thresholds, shares which it acquired in the transaction taking it over the threshold and within the 90 days immediately preceding the date when the acquiring person acquired or offered to acquire a controlling interest become “control shares” to which the voting restrictions described above apply.

 

29

 

 

Nevada law also provides that directors may resist a change or potential change in control if the directors determine that the change is opposed to, or not in the best interests of, the corporation. The existence of the foregoing provisions and other potential anti-takeover measures could limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock. They could also deter potential acquirers of our Company, thereby reducing the likelihood that you could receive a premium for your common stock in an acquisition.

 

Anti-Takeover Effects of Our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws

 

The following provisions of our articles of incorporation and bylaws could have the effect of delaying or discouraging another party from acquiring control of us and could encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to first negotiate with our board of directors:

 

no cumulative voting in the election of directors, which limits the ability of minority stockholders to elect director candidates;

 

the right of our board of directors to elect a director to fill a vacancy created by the expansion of the board of directors or the resignation, death or removal of a director, with our stockholders only allowed to fill such a vacancy if not filled by the board;

 

the ability of our board of directors to alter our bylaws without obtaining shareholder approval; and

 

the requirement that a special meeting of stockholders may be called only by either (i) the Chairman; (ii) the President; (iii) Vice President, or (iv) at least two members of our board of directors, which may delay the ability of our stockholders to force consideration of a proposal or to take action, including the removal of directors.

 

Transfer Agent and Registrar

 

The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is Worldwide Stock Transfer. 

 

Stock Quotation

 

Our common stock is currently quoted on OTC Pink and under the symbols “BSRC”.

 

Indemnification of Directors and Officers

 

The NRS empower us to indemnify our directors and officers against expenses relating to certain actions, suits or proceedings as provided for therein. In order for such indemnification to be available, the applicable director or officer must not have acted in a manner that constituted a breach of his or her fiduciary duties and involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law, or must have acted in good faith and reasonably believed that his or her conduct was in, or not opposed to, our best interests. In the event of a criminal action, the applicable director or officer must not have had reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.

 

Under the Nevada General Corporation Law our Bylaws, our directors will have no personal liability to us or our stockholders for monetary damages incurred as the result of the breach or alleged breach by a director of his “duty of care.” This provision does not apply to the directors’ (i) acts or omissions that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing and culpable violation of law, (ii) acts or omissions that a director believes to be contrary to the best interests of the corporation or its stockholders or that involve the absence of good faith on the part of the director, (iii) approval of any transaction from which a director derives an improper personal benefit, (iv) acts or omissions that show a reckless disregard for the director’s duty to the corporation or its stockholders in circumstances in which the director was aware, or should have been aware, in the ordinary course of performing a director’s duties, of a risk of serious injury to the corporation or its stockholders, (v) acts or omissions that constituted an unexcused pattern of inattention that amounts to an abdication of the director’s duty to the corporation or its stockholders, or (vi) approval of an unlawful dividend, distribution, stock repurchase or redemption. This provision would generally absolve directors of personal liability for negligence in the performance of duties, including gross negligence.

The effect of this provision in our Bylaws is to eliminate the rights of our Company and our stockholders (through stockholder’s derivative suits on behalf of our Company) to recover monetary damages against a director for breach of his fiduciary duty of care as a director (including breaches resulting from negligent or grossly negligent behavior) except in the situations described in clauses (i) through (vi) above. This provision does not limit nor eliminate the rights of our Company or any stockholder to seek non-monetary relief such as an injunction or rescission in the event of a breach of a director’s duty of care. In addition, our Bylaws provide that if the Nevada General Corporation Law is amended to authorize the future elimination or limitation of the liability of a director, then the liability of the directors will be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the law, as amended. The Nevada General Corporation Law grants corporations the right to indemnify their directors, officers, employees and agents in accordance with applicable law.

 

Disclosure of Commission Position on Indemnification for Securities Act Liabilities

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities under the Securities Act may be permitted to officers, directors or persons controlling the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company has been informed that is it is the opinion of the SEC that such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in such Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

 

PRIVATE PLACEMENT OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK, WARRANTS AND PRE-FUNDED WARRANTS

 

On January 24, 2021 (the “Signing Date”), we entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with a single institutional and accredited investor pursuant to which we sold to the investor in a private placement an aggregate of (i) 52,000,000 shares of common stock (the “Shares”), (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 31,333,334 shares of common stock (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) and (iii) warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 83,333,334 shares of common stock for gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $5,000,000. The combined purchase price for one share of common stock and a warrant to purchase one share of common stock is $0.06 and the combined purchase price for one pre-funded warrant to purchase one share of common stock and a warrant to purchase one share of common stock is 0.0599. The closing for the sale of the Shares, Pre-Funded Warrants and Warrants occurred on January 27, 2021.

 

We intend to use the net proceeds primarily to expand and accelerate the development of its electrolyzer technology, as well as for working capital and general corporate purposes.

 

The Pre-Funded warrants have an exercise price of $0.0001 per share, subject to adjustment and no expiration date.  The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable immediately and may be exercised at any time until all of the Pre-Funded Warrants are exercised in full.

 

The Warrant is exercisable for a period of five and one-half years from the date of issuance and has an exercise price of $0.06 per share, subject to adjustment as set forth in the Warrant for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and similar customary adjustments. The investor may exercise the Warrant on a cashless basis if the shares of common stock underlying the Warrant (the “Warrant Shares”) are not then registered pursuant to an effective registration statement.

 

Under the terms of the warrants and pre-funded warrants, the investor may not exercise the warrants to the extent such exercise would cause such investor, together with its affiliates and attribution parties, to beneficially own a number of shares of common stock which would exceed 4.99% of our then outstanding common stock following such exercise, excluding for purposes of such determination shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants which have not been exercised. The number of shares in the second column does not reflect this limitation.

 

In connection with the Purchase Agreement, we entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with the investor. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, we will be required to file a resale registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to register for resale of the Shares, the shares issuable upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Warrant Shares, within 15 days of the Signing Date, and to have such Registration Statement declared effective within 60 days after the Signing Date, or 90 days of the Signing Date in the event the Registration Statement is “fully” reviewed by the SEC. We will be obligated to pay certain liquidated damages to the investor if we fail to file the resale registration statement when required, fails to cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC when required, of if we fail to maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement.

 

Pursuant to an engagement letter (the “Engagement Letter”), dated as of January 22, 2021, by and between the Company and H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (“Wainwright”), we engaged Wainwright to act as our exclusive placement agent in connection with the offering. Pursuant to the engagement agreement, we agreed to pay Wainwright a cash fee of 7.5% of the gross proceeds we received under the Purchase Agreement. We also agreed to pay Wainwright (i) a management fee equal to 1.0% of the gross proceeds raised in the offering; and (ii) $85,000 for non-accountable expenses. In addition, we agreed to issue to Wainwright (or its designees) placement agent warrants (the “Placement Agent Warrants”) to purchase a number of shares equal to 7.5% of the aggregate number of Shares sold under the Purchase Agreement, or warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 6,250,000 shares. The Placement Agent Warrants generally will have the same terms as the Warrants, except they will have an exercise price of $0.075 per share.

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

 

The common stock being offered by the selling stockholders are those previously issued to the investor in the January 27, 2021 Private Placement and those issuable to the investor upon exercise of the warrants, pre-funded warrants as well as the Placement Agent Warrants. For additional information regarding the issuances of those shares of common stock, warrants, pre-funded warrants and Placement Agent Warrants see “Private Placement of Shares of Common Stock Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants” above. We are registering the shares of common stock in order to permit the selling stockholders to offer the shares for resale from time to time. Except for the ownership of the shares of common stock, warrants and the pre-funded warrants, the selling stockholders have not had any material relationship with us within the past three years.

 

The table below lists the selling stockholders and other information regarding the beneficial ownership of the shares of common stock by the selling stockholders. The second column lists the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned each of the by the selling stockholders, based on its ownership of the shares of common stock and warrants, as of January 27, 2021, assuming exercise of the warrants and pre-funded warrants held by the selling stockholders on that date, without regard to any limitations on exercises. As of January 27, 2021, 526,286,424 shares of the Company’s’ common stock were issued and outstanding.

 

The third column lists the shares of common stock being offered by this prospectus by the selling stockholders.

 

This prospectus generally covers the resale of the sum of (i) the number of shares of common stock issued to the investor in the January 27, 2021 Private Placement as described above and (ii) the maximum number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the related warrants and the Placement Agent Warrants, determined as if the outstanding warrants were exercised in full as of the trading day immediately preceding the date this registration statement was initially filed with the SEC, each as of the trading day immediately preceding the applicable date of determination and all subject to adjustment as provided in the registration right agreement, without regard to any limitations on the exercise of the warrants. The fourth column assumes the sale of all of the shares offered by the selling stockholders pursuant to this prospectus.

 

Under the terms of the warrants and pre-funded warrants, the investor (Armistice Capital Master Fund Ltd.) may not exercise the warrants to the extent such exercise would cause such investor, together with its affiliates and attribution parties, to beneficially own a number of shares of common stock which would exceed 4.99% of our then outstanding common stock following such exercise, excluding for purposes of such determination shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants which have not been exercised (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”). The Placement Agent Warrants are also subject to a Beneficial Ownership Limitation. The number of shares in the second column does not reflect this limitation. The selling stockholder may sell all, some or none of their shares in this offering. See “Plan of Distribution.”

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

The Selling Stockholders (the “Selling Stockholders”) of the securities and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their securities covered hereby on the OTC Pink or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the securities are traded or in private transactions. Each Selling Stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities: The selling stockholders will offer its shares at a fixed price of $0.1134 per share until our common shares are quoted on the OTCMarkets OTCQB, and thereafter, at prevailing market prices or privately negotiated prices.

 

ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

 

block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

 

purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

 

an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

 

privately negotiated transactions;

 

settlement of short sales;

 

in transactions through broker-dealers that agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such securities at a stipulated price per security;

 

through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

 

a combination of any such methods of sale; or

 

any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

 

The Selling Stockholders may also sell securities under Rule 144 or any other exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), if available, rather than under this prospectus.

 

Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this Prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA IM-2440.

 

In connection with the sale of the securities or interests therein, the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholders may also sell securities short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

 

33

 

 

The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the securities may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the securities purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Each of the Selling Stockholders have informed the Company that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the securities.

 

The Company is required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by the Company incident to the registration of the securities. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

 

We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the securities may be resold by the Selling Stockholders without registration and without regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the securities have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The resale securities will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale securities covered hereby may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

 

Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale securities may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the Selling Stockholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of the common stock by the Selling Stockholder or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Stockholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of BioSolar, Inc.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of BioSolar, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2019, and the related statements of operations, shareholders’ deficit, and cash flows for period ended December 31, 2019, and the related notes and schedules (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the period ended December 31, 2019, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The financial statements of BioSolar, Inc., as of December 31, 2018, were audited by other auditors whose report dated March 21, 2019, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, 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.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continues as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, in past years, the Company has suffered net losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding those matters are discussed in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of BioSolar, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2018, the related statement of operations, shareholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2018, 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 Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company does not generate revenue and has negative cash flows from operations. This raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

BIOSOLAR, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – AUDITED

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2019 AND 2018

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND LINE OF BUSINESS

 

Organization

BioSolar, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Nevada on April 24, 2006.  The Company, based in Santa Clarita, California, began operations on April 25, 2006 to develop and market Photovoltaic solar technology products.    

 

Line of Business

We are developing innovative technologies to increase the storage capacity, lower the cost and extend the life of lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles (EV). We are currently working on a silicon anode additive material technology intended to increase the storage capacity of current and future generation of lithium-ion batteries We previously developed BioBacksheetR, a high performance green back sheet for Photovoltaic solar modules.,

 

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.  The accompanying financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company did not generate any revenue, incurred net income of $4,122,365, which includes a non-cash net gain in change in derivative of $5,777,348 and used cash in operations of $718,403.  As of December 31, 2019, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $10,048,922 and a shareholders’ deficit of $12,215,711.   These factors, among others raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  Our independent auditors, in their report on our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. 

  

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern and the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The carrying amounts of assets and liabilities presented in the financial statements do not necessarily purport to represent realizable or settlement values. The financial statements do not include any adjustment that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. 

  

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and appropriateness of using the going concern basis is dependent upon, among other things, achieving a level of profitable operations and receiving additional cash infusions. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company obtained funds from the issuance of convertible note agreements. Management believes this funding will continue from its’ current investors and from new investors. Management believes the existing shareholders, and the prospective new investors will provide the additional cash needed to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due and will allow the development of its core business operations. No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing or cause substantial dilution for our stock holders, in case of equity financing. 

 

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

This summary of significant accounting policies of the Company is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

 

Revenue Recognition

The Company will recognize revenue when services are performed, and at the time of shipment of products, provided that evidence of an arrangement exists, title and risk of loss have passed to the customer, fees are fixed or determinable, and collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured. The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, whereby revenue will be recognized as performance obligations are satisfied and customers obtain control of goods or services. However, in the event of a loss on a sale is foreseen, the Company will recognize the loss as it is determined. To date, the Company has not had significant revenues and is in the development stage.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalent

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements. Significant estimates made in preparing these financial statements, include the estimate of useful lives of property and equipment, the deferred tax valuation allowance, derivative liabilities and the fair value of stock options. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost, and are depreciated using straight line over its estimated useful lives:

 

Computer equipment     5 Years  
Machinery and equipment     10 Years  

 

Depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 was $4,623 and $3,080, respectively.

 

Intangible Assets

The Company has patent applications to protect the inventions and processes behind its proprietary bio-based back-sheet, a protective covering for the back of photovoltaic solar modules traditionally made from petroleum-based film. Intangible assets that have finite useful lives continue to be amortized over their useful lives

 

    Useful Lives   2019     2018  
Patents       $ 45,336     $ 75,487  
Write-off of abandoned patents         -       (30,151 )
Less accumulated amortization   15 years     (12,090 )     (9,067 )
        $ 33,246     $ 36,269  

 

Amortization expense for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 was $2,267 and $3,022, respectively.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an equity award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. All grants under our stock-based compensation programs are accounted for at fair value and that cost is recognized over the period during which an employee, consultant, or director are required to provide service in exchange for the award (the vesting period). Compensation expense for options granted to employees and non-employees is determined in accordance with the standard as the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measured. Compensation expense for awards granted is re-measured each period.

 

The Company granted 12,000,000 stock options to its’ employee and 3,950,000 stock options to and board of directors for services. As of December 31, 2019, there were 15,950,000 stock options outstanding.

 

As of December 31, 2019, the Company did not issue any warrants and had no warrants outstanding.

 

Determining the appropriate fair value of the stock-based compensation requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected life of the stock-based payment and stock price volatility. The Company used Black Scholes to value its stock option awards which incorporated the Company’s stock price, volatility, U.S. risk-free rate, dividend rate, and estimated life. The stock options terminate seven (7) years from the date of grant or upon termination of employment. As of December 31, 2019, 15,950,000 stock options are outstanding.

 

Income Taxes

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

 

When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained.  The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any.  Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions.  Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority.  The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination.

 

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cut and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) was signed into law by the President of the United States. The TCJA is a tax reform act that among other things, reduced corporate income tax rate to 21%, effective January 1, 2018. Accordingly, the Company adjusted its deferred tax assets and liabilities at January 1, 2018, using the new corporate rate of 21%. See Note 7.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Research and Development

 

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.  Total research and development costs were $264,687 and $239,607 for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

 

Net Earnings (Loss) per Share Calculations

 

Net earnings (Loss) per share dictates the calculation of basic earnings (loss) per share and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted net earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic earnings (loss) per share except that the denominator is increased to include the effect of stock options and stock based awards (Note 4), plus the assumed conversion of convertible debt (Note 5).   

 

The Company has included shares issuable from convertible debt of $2,854,033 and 15,950,000 stock options for the year ended December 31, 2019, because their impact on the income per share is dilutive.

 

The Company has excluded shares issuable from convertible debt of $2,478,260 and 15,950,000 stock options for the year ended December 31, 2018, because their impact on the loss per share is anti-dilutive.

 

    For the Years Ended  
    December 31,  
    2019     2018  
             
Income (Loss) to common shareholders (Numerator)   $ 4,122,365     $ (9,866,829 )
                 
Basic weighted average number of common shares outstanding (Denominator)     92,022,751       53,667,779  
                 
Diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding (Denominator)     679,815,020       53,667,779  

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments, requires disclosure of the fair value information, whether recognized in the balance sheet, where it is practicable to estimate that value. As of December 31, 2019, the amounts reported for cash, inventory, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, and accrued expenses, approximate the fair value because of their short maturities.

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC Topic 820 established a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

 

  Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;

 

  Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and

 

  Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

 

We measure certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows at December 31, 2019 and 2018:

 

    Total     (Level 1)     (Level 2)     (Level 3)  
Assets:   $ -     $ -     $ -     $ -  
                                 
Liabilities:                                
                                 
Derivative Liability at fair value as of December 31, 2019   $ 8,919,202     $ -     $ -     $ 8,919,202  
                                 
Derivative Liability at fair value as of December 31, 2018   $ 14,032,942     $ -     $ -     $ 14,032,942

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The following is a reconciliation of the derivative liability for which Level 3 inputs were used in determining the approximate fair value:

   

Balance as of December 31, 2017   $ 5,239,073  
Fair value of derivative liabilities issued     402,808  
Loss on change in derivative liability     8,391,061  
Balance as of December 31, 2018   $ 14,032,942  
Fair value of derivative liabilities issued     663,608  
Gain on change in derivative liability     (5,777,348 )
Balance as of December 31, 2019   $ 8,919,202  

 

Accounting for Derivatives

The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses a probability weighted average series Binomial lattice formula pricing models to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates.

 

The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-2, which creates ASC Topic 842, “Leases.” This update increases transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of ASC 2016-2, which had no effect on the Company’s financial statements.

 

In June 2018, FASB issued accounting standards update ASU 2018-07, (Topic 505) – “Shared-Based Payment Arrangements with Nonemployees”, which simplifies the accounting for share-based payments granted to nonemployees for goods and services. Under the ASU, most of the guidance on such payments to nonemployees will be aligned with the requirements for share-based payments granted to employees. Under the ASU 2018-07, the measurement of equity-classified nonemployee share-based payments will be fixed on the grant date, as defined in ASC 718, and will use the term nonemployee vesting period, rather than requisite service period. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted if financial statements have not yet been issued. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of ASU 2018-07, which has no effect on the Company’s financial statements.

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued to accounting standards update ASU 2018-13, (Topic 820) - “Fair Value Measurement”, which changes the unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty should be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption. All other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted upon issuance. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of ASU 2018-13, which has no effect on the Company’s financial statements.

 

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

The May Note matured on September 18, 2019, and was extended to May 2, 2022 on December 26, 2019. The May 2014 Note bears interest at 10% per annum. The May 2014 Note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of a) the lesser of $0.25 per share of common stock (subject to adjustment for stock splits, dividends, combinations and other similar transactions) or b) fifty percent (50%) of the average three (3) lowest trading prices of three (3) separate trading days recorded after the effective date, or c) the lowest effective price granted to any person or entity after the effective date to acquire common stock. If the Borrower fails to deliver shares in accordance with the time frame of three (3) business days, the Lender, at any time prior to selling all of those shares, may rescind any portion, in whole or in part of that particular conversion attributable to the unsold shares and have the rescinded conversion amount returned to the Principal Sum with the rescinded conversion shares returned to the Borrower. In addition, for each conversion, in the event shares are not delivered by the fourth business day (inclusive of the day of conversion), a penalty of $1,500 per day shall be assessed for each day after the third business day (inclusive of the day of the conversion) until the shares are delivered.

5. CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES (Continued)

 

The Company issued an unsecured convertible promissory note on December 20, 2019 (the Dec 2019 Note), in the aggregate principal amount of $53,000. The Company paid an original issue discount of $3,000 and received funds in the amount of $50,000. The December 20, 2019 Note matures on December 20, 2020. The Dec 2019 Note bears interest at 10% per annum.

The parties agree that if delivery of the common stock issuable upon conversion of these Notes are not delivered by the deadline, the Borrower shall pay to the Holder $2,000 per day in cash, for each day beyond the deadline that the Borrower fails to deliver such common stock. The conversion feature of the Dec 2019 Note was considered a derivative in accordance with current accounting guidelines because of the reset conversion features of the Dec 2019 Note. The fair value of the Dec 2019 Note has been determined by using the Binomial lattice formula from the effective date of the notes. The Company recorded amortization of debt discount, which was recognized as interest expense in the amount of $1,593 during the year ended December 31, 2019. As of December 31, 2019, the balance of the Dec 2019 Note was $53,000.

 

We evaluated the financing transactions in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and determined that the conversion feature of the convertible promissory note was not afforded the exemption for conventional convertible instruments due to its variable conversion rate. The note has no explicit limit on the number of shares issuable, so they did not meet the conditions set forth in current accounting standards for equity classification. The Company elected to recognize the note under paragraph 815-15-25-4, whereby, there would be a separation into a host contract and derivative instrument. The Company elected to initially and subsequently measure the note in its entirety at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. The Company recorded a derivative liability representing the imputed interest associated with the embedded derivative. The derivative liability is adjusted periodically per the stock price fluctuations.

  

6. DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES

 

We evaluated the financing transactions in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and determined that the conversion feature of the convertible promissory note was not afforded the exemption for conventional convertible instruments due to its variable conversion rate. The note has no explicit limit on the number of shares issuable, so they did not meet the conditions set forth in current accounting standards for equity classification. The Company elected to recognize the note under paragraph 815-15-25-4, whereby, there would be a separation into a host contract and derivative instrument. The Company elected to initially and subsequently measure the note in its entirety at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. The Company recorded a derivative liability representing the imputed interest associated with the embedded derivative. The derivative liability is adjusted periodically per the stock price fluctuations.

 

The convertible notes issued and described in Note 5 do not have fixed settlement provisions because their conversion prices are not fixed. The conversion feature has been characterized as derivative liabilities to be re-measured at the end of every reporting period with the change in value reported in the statement of operations.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2019, as a result of the convertible notes (“Notes”) issued that were accounted for as derivative liabilities, we determined that the fair value of the conversion feature of the convertible notes at issuance was $663,608, based upon a Binomial-Model calculation. We recorded the full value of the derivative as a liability at issuance with an offset to valuation discount, which will be amortized over the life of the Notes.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company converted $587,628 in principal of convertible notes, plus accrued interest of $74,006, and other fees of $500. As a result of the conversion of these notes the Company recorded a gain on extinguishment of debt in the amount of $1,056,558 and a gain in net change in derivative of $4,720,790 in the statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2019. At December 31, 2019, the fair value of the derivative liability was $8,919,202.

 

For purpose of determining the fair market value of the derivative liability for the embedded conversion, the Company used the Binomial lattice valuation model. The significant assumptions used in the Binomial lattice valuation model for the derivative are as follows:

 

    12/31/2019
Risk free interest rate   1.55% - 1.69%
Stock volatility factor   63.0% -159.0%
Weighted average expected option life   6 months - 5 years
Expected dividend yield   None

 

7. INCOME TAXES

 

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. enacted the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”), which significantly changed U.S. tax law. The Act lowered the Company’s U.S. statutory federal income tax rate from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018.

 

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. Federal jurisdiction, and the state of California. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2016.

7. INCOME TAXES (Continued)

 

Included in the balance at December 31, 2019, are no tax positions for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain, but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility.  Because of the impact of deferred tax accounting, other than interest and penalties, the disallowance of the shorter deductibility period would not affect the annual effective tax rate but would accelerate the payment of cash to the taxing authority to an earlier period.

 

The Company’s policy is to recognize interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company did not recognize interest and penalties.

 

At December 31, 2019, the Company had net operating loss carry-forwards of approximately $9,275,000 that may be offset against future taxable income. No tax benefit has been reported in the December 31, 2019 financial statements since the potential tax benefit is offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.

 

The income tax provision differs from the amount of income tax determined by applying the U.S. federal and state income tax rate of 30% to pretax income from continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 due to the following:

 

    2019     2018  
             
Book Income (Loss)     1,236,710       (2,072,035 )
                 
Depreciation     (230 )     125  
Meals and entertainment     95       (1,060 )
Non-deductible non-cash charges     (1,012,945 )     1,924,670  
                 
Valuation Allowance     (223,630 )     148,300  
                 
Income tax expense   $ -     $ -  

 

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

  

Net deferred tax assets consist of the following components as of December 31, 2019 and 2018:

 

    2019     2018  
Deferred tax assets:            
NOL carryover     (1,947,750 )     (1,811,705 )
R & D credit     142,385       124,840  
Depreciation     10,735       10,735  
                 
Deferred tax liabilities:             -  
                 
Less Valuation Allowance     1,794,630       1,676,130  
                 
Net deferred tax asset   $ -     $ -  

 

Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carry-forwards for Federal income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in ownership occur, net operating loss carry-forwards may be limited as to use in future years.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – UNAUDITED

FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2020 AND 2019

 

1. Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020. For further information refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

 

Going Concern 

The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The accompanying unaudited financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. The Company has not generated revenue, and has negative cash flows from operations, which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and appropriateness of using the going concern basis is dependent upon, among other things, additional cash infusion. The Company has historically obtained funds through private placements offerings of equity and debt. Management believes that it will be able to continue to raise funds by sale of its securities to its existing shareholders and prospective new investors to provide the additional cash needed to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due, and will allow the development of its core of business. No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing or cause substantial dilution for our stock holders, in case of equity financing. 

 

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

This summary of significant accounting policies of the Company is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

 

Revenue Recognition

The Company will recognize revenue when services are performed, and at the time of shipment of products, provided that evidence of an arrangement exists, title and risk of loss have passed to the customer, fees are fixed or determinable, and collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured. To date, the Company has not had significant revenues and is in the development stage.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalent

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements. Significant estimates made in preparing these financial statements, include the estimate of useful lives of property and equipment, the deferred tax valuation allowance, derivative liabilities and the fair value of stock options. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Intangible Assets

The Company has patent applications to protect the inventions and processes behind its proprietary bio-based back-sheet, a protective covering for the back of photovoltaic solar modules traditionally made from petroleum-based film. Intangible assets that have finite useful lives continue to be amortized over their useful lives.

 

    Useful Lives   9/30/20     12/31/19  
Patents       $ 45,336     $ 45,336  
Less accumulated amortization   15 years     (14,356 )     (12,090 )
        $ 30,980     $ 33,246  

 

Amortization expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2019 was $2,266 and $1,511, respectively.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an equity award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. All grants under our stock-based compensation programs are accounted for at fair value and that cost is recognized over the period during which an employee, consultant, or director are required to provide service in exchange for the award (the vesting period). Compensation expense for options granted to employees and non-employees is determined in accordance with the standard as the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measured. Compensation expense for awards granted is re-measured each period.

 

Determining the appropriate fair value of the stock-based compensation requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected life of the stock-based payment and stock price volatility.  The Company used Black Scholes to value its stock option awards which incorporated the Company’s stock price, volatility, U.S. risk-free rate, dividend rate, and estimated life. The stock options terminate seven (7) years from the date of grant or upon termination of employment. As of September 30, 2020, 15,950,000 stock options are outstanding.

 

Net Earnings (Loss) per Share Calculations

Net earnings (Loss) per share dictates the calculation of basic earnings (loss) per share and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted net earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic earnings (loss) per share except that the denominator is increased to include the effect of stock options and stock based awards (Note 4), plus the assumed conversion of convertible debt (Note 5).   

  

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company’s diluted loss per share is the same as the basic loss per share, and the inclusion of any potential shares would have had an anti-dilutive effect due to the Company generating a loss. The Company has included 15,950,000 stock options and the shares issuable from convertible debt of $2,759,704, because their impact was dilutive.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company’s diluted loss per share is the same as the basic loss per share, and the inclusion of any potential shares would have had an anti-dilutive effect due to the Company generating a loss. The Company has excluded 15,950,000 stock options, and the shares issuable from convertible debt of $2,602,220, because their impact was anti-dilutive.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments, requires disclosure of the fair value information, whether recognized in the balance sheet, where it is practicable to estimate that value. As of September 30, 2020, the amounts reported for cash, inventory, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, and accrued expenses, approximate the fair value because of their short maturities.

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC Topic 820 established a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

 

Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;

 

  Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and

 

  Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

We measure certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows at September 30, 2020:

 

    Total     (Level 1)     (Level 2)     (Level 3)  
                         
Derivative Liability   $ 25,261,322     $      -     $        -     $ 25,261,322  
Total Liabilities measured at fair value   $ 25,261,322     $ -     $ -     $ 25,261,322  

 

The following is a reconciliation of the derivative liability for which Level 3 inputs were used in determining the approximate fair value:

 

Balance as of December 31, 2019   $ 8,919,202  
Fair value of derivative liabilities issued     478,000  
Loss on change in derivative liability     15,864,120  
Balance as of September 30, 2020   $ 25,261,322

6. DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES

 

We evaluated the financing transactions in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and determined that the conversion feature of the convertible promissory note was not afforded the exemption for conventional convertible instruments due to its variable conversion rate. The note has no explicit limit on the number of shares issuable so they did not meet the conditions set forth in current accounting standards for equity classification. The Company elected to recognize the note under paragraph 815-15-25-4, whereby, there would be a separation into a host contract and derivative instrument. The Company elected to initially and subsequently measure the note in its entirety at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. The Company recorded a derivative liability representing the imputed interest associated with the embedded derivative. The derivative liability is adjusted periodically per the stock price fluctuations.

 

The convertible notes issued and described in Note 5 do not have fixed settlement provisions because their conversion prices are not fixed. The conversion feature has been characterized as derivative liabilities to be re-measured at the end of every reporting period with the change in value reported in the statement of operations.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, as a result of the convertible notes (“Notes”) issued that were accounted for as derivative liabilities, we determined that the fair value of the conversion feature of the convertible notes at issuance was $478,000, based upon a Binomial-Model calculation. We recorded the full value of the derivative as a liability at issuance with an offset to valuation discount, which will be amortized over the life of the Notes.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company converted $572,329 in principal of convertible notes, plus accrued interest of $61,115, and other fees of $4,750. At September 30, 2020, the fair value of the derivative liability was $25,261,322.

 

For purpose of determining the fair market value of the derivative liability for the embedded conversion, the Company used the Binomial lattice valuation model. The significant assumptions used in the Binomial lattice valuation model for the derivative are as follows:

  

    9/30/2020  
         
Risk free interest rate     0.12% - 0.28%  
Stock volatility factor     153.0% -246.0%  
Weighted average expected option life     6 months - 5 years  
Expected dividend yield     None  

 

7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

  

The Company rents office space on a yearly basis with a monthly rent payment in the amount of $550.

 

In the normal course of business, the Company may be involved in legal proceedings, claims and assessments arising. Such matters are subject to many uncertainties, and outcomes are not predictable with assurance. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

 

At September 30, 2020, there were no legal proceedings against the Company.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

 

Neither our Articles of Incorporation nor Bylaws prevent us from indemnifying our officers, directors and agents to the extent permitted under the Nevada Revised Statute (“NRS”). NRS Section 78.7502 provides that a corporation shall indemnify any director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with any defense to the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Section 78.7502(1) or 78.7502(2), or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein.

 

NRS 78.7502(1) provides that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, except an action by or in the right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if he: (a) is not liable pursuant to NRS 78.138; or (b) acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

 

NRS Section 78.7502(2) provides that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses, including amounts paid in settlement and attorneys’ fees actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of the action or suit if he: (a) is not liable pursuant to NRS 78.138; or (b) acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. Indemnification may not be made for any claim, issue or matter as to which such a person has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals there from, to be liable to the corporation or for amounts paid in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought or other court of competent jurisdiction determines upon application that in view of all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems proper.

  

NRS Section 78.747 provides that except as otherwise provided by specific statute, no director or officer of a corporation is individually liable for a debt or liability of the corporation, unless the director or officer acts as the alter ego of the corporation. The court as a matter of law must determine the question of whether a director or officer acts as the alter ego of a corporation.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed hereby in the Securities Act and we will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Item 17. Undertakings.

 

(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

 

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

 

(i) To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”);

  

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

 

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.

 

II-8

 

 

(2) That, for the purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of the securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. 

 

(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

 

(5) For the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

 

(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

 

(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

 

(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

 

(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

  

(b) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities, other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred and paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding, is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered hereby, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. 

 

(c) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that it will:

 

(1) for determining any liability under the Securities Act, treat the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant under Rule 424(b)(1), or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act as part of this registration statement as of the time the Commission declared it effective.

 

(2) for determining any liability under the Securities Act, treat each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus as a new registration statement for the securities offered in the registration statement, and that offering of the securities at that time as the initial bona fide offering of those securities.
