SECTION 2 – FINANCIAL INFORMATION
 
Item 2.01      Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
 
NSH Asset Acquisition
 
On January 30, 2015, the Company consummated the acquisition of substantially all of the assets (the “ Assets ”) of NSH pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement, dated November 26, 2014, by and between the Company and NSH (the “Agreement”).
 
In accordance with the terms of the Agreement, the Company issued 75,520,240 shares of its common stock (the “ Shares ”) to NSH as consideration for the Assets, which consist primarily of all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of NSC and NS Global, and certain real property located in San Antonio, Texas (the “ Transaction ”). As a result of the Transaction, NSH acquired 88.62% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock, NSC and NS Global became the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, and the Company is changing its principal business to a global shrimp farming company.
 
There were no material relationships between the Company and NSH or between the Company’s or NSH’s respective affiliates, directors, or officers or associates thereof, other than in respect of the Agreement.
 
Description of Business
Overview
 
NSC and NS Global are biotechnology companies that have developed a proprietary technology that allows them to grow Pacific white shrimp in an ecologically controlled, high-density, low-cost environment, and in fully contained and independent production facilities. Their system uses technology which allows them to produce a naturally-grown shrimp “crop” weekly, and accomplishes this without the use of antibiotics or toxic chemicals.  They have developed several proprietary technology assets, including a knowledge base that allows them to produce commercial quantities of shrimp in a closed system with a computer monitoring system that automates, monitors and maintains proper levels of oxygen, salinity and temperature for optimal shrimp production.  Their initial production facility is located outside of San Antonio, Texas, and they hold a minority interest in a Norwegian company that owns and operates a production facility in Medina del Campo, Spain, using the NaturalShrimp system.
 
Vibrio Suppression Technology
 
Historically, efforts to raise shrimp in a high-density, closed system at the commercial level have met with either modest success or outright failure through “BioFloc Technology”. Infectious agents such as parasites, bacteria and viruses are the most damaging and most difficult to control. Bacterial infection can in some cases be combated through the use of antibiotics (although not always), and in general the use of antibiotics is considered undesirable and counter to “green” cultivation practices.  Viruses can be even worse in that they are immune to antibiotics, and once introduced to a shrimp population viruses can wipe out entire farms and shrimp populations, even with intense probiotic applications.
 
Our primary solution against infectious agents is our “Vibrio Suppression Technology”. We believe this system creates higher sustainable densities, consistent production, improved growth and survival rates and improved food conversion without the use of antibiotics, probiotics or unhealthy anti-microbial chemicals. Vibrio Suppression Technology helps to exclude and suppress harmful organisms that usually destroy “BioFloc” and other enclosed technologies. The diagram below provides a general outline of our Vibrio Suppression Technology at work.

Automated Monitoring and Control System
Our Automated Monitoring and Control System uses individual tank monitors, as shown below, to automatically control the feeding, oxygenation, and temperature of each of the facility tanks independently.  In addition, a facility computer running custom software communicates with each of the controllers and performs additional data acquisition functions that can report back to a supervisory computer from anywhere in the world.  These computer automated water controls optimize the growing conditions for the shrimp as they mature to harvest size, providing a disease-resistant production environment.
 
Risk Factors
 
You should carefully consider the risks described below together with all of the other information included in our public filings before making an investment decision with regard to our securities.  The statements contained in or incorporated into this document that are not historic facts are forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in or implied by forward-looking statements.  If any of the following events described in these risk factors actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be harmed.  In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.  Moreover, additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem less significant also may impact our business, financial condition or results of operations, perhaps materially.

Risks Related to Our Business and Industry
 
The market for our product may be limited, and as a result our business may be adversely affected.
 
The feasibility of marketing our product has been assumed to this point and there can be no assurance that such assumptions are correct.  It is possible that the costs of development and implementation of our shrimp production technology may be too expensive to market our shrimp at a competitive price. It is likewise possible that competing technologies will be introduced into the marketplace before or after the introduction of our product to the market, which may affect our ability to market our product at a competitive price.
 
Furthermore, there can be no assurance that the prices we determine to charge for our product will be commercially acceptable or that the prices that may be dictated by the market will be sufficient to provide to us sufficient revenues to profitably operate and provide a financial return to our investors.
 
Our business and operations are affected by the volatility of prices for shrimp.
 
Our business, prospects, revenues, profitability and future growth are highly dependent upon the prices of and demand for shrimp.  Our ability to borrow and to obtain additional capital on attractive terms is also substantially dependent upon shrimp prices.  These prices have been and are likely to continue to be extremely volatile for seasonal, cyclical and other reasons. Any substantial or extended decline in the price of shrimp will have a material adverse effect on our financing capacity and our prospects for commencing and sustaining any economic commercial production.  In addition, increased availability of imported shrimp can affect our business by lowering commodity prices.  This could reduce the value of inventories, held both by us and by our customers, and cause many of our customers to reduce their orders for new products until they can dispose of their higher cost inventories.
 
Market demand for our products may decrease.
 
We face competition from other producers of seafood as well as from other protein sources, such as pork, beef and poultry. The bases on which we expect to compete include:
 
●  
price;
 
●  
product quality;
 
●  
brand identification; and
 
●  
customer service.
 
Demand for our products will be affected by our competitors’ promotional spending. We may be unable to compete successfully on any or all of these bases in the future, which may have a material adverse effect on our revenues and results of operations.
 
Moreover, although historically the logistics and perishability of seafood has led to regionalized competition, the market for fresh and frozen seafood is becoming increasingly globalized as a result of improved delivery logistics and improved preservation of the products. Increased competition, consolidation, and overcapacity may lead to lower product pricing of competing products that could reduce demand for our products and have a material adverse effect on our revenues and results of operations.

If we do not have access to all of the equipment, supplies, materials and services needed, we may have to suspend our operations as a result.
 
Competition and unforeseen limited sources of supplies in the industry may result in occasional spot shortages of equipment, supplies and materials.  In particular, we may experience possible unavailability of post-larvae and materials and services used in our shrimp production facilities.  Such unavailability could result in increased costs and delays to our operations.  If we cannot find the products, equipment and materials that we need on a timely basis, we may have to suspend our production plans until we find the products, equipment and materials that we need.
 
If we lose our key management and technical personnel, our business may be adversely affected.
 
In carrying out our operations, we will rely upon a small group of key management and technical personnel including our Chief Executive Officer, Chairman of the Board and President.  We do not currently maintain any key man insurance.  An unexpected partial or total loss of the services of these key individuals could be detrimental to our business.
 
Our expansion plans for our shrimp production facilities reflects our current intent and is subject to change.

Our current plans  regarding  expansion  of our shrimp  production facilities are subject to change.  Whether we ultimately undertake our expansion plans will depend on the following factors, among others:
 
●  
availability and cost of capital;
 
●  
current and future shrimp prices;
 
●  
costs  and  availability  of  post-larvae  shrimp,  equipment,  supplies  and  personnel necessary to conduct these operations;
 
●  
success or failure of activities in similar areas;
 
●  
changes in the estimates of the costs to complete production facilities; and
 
●  
decisions of operators and future joint venture partners.
 
We will continue to gather data about our production facilities, and it is possible that additional information may cause us to alter our schedule or determine that a certain facility should not be pursued at all.
 
Our product is subject to regulatory approvals and if we fail to obtain such approvals, our business may be adversely affected.
 
Most of the jurisdictions in which we operate will require us to obtain a license for each facility owned and operated in that jurisdiction. We have obtained and currently hold a license to own and operate each of our facilities where a license is required. In order to maintain the licenses, we have to operate our current farms and, if we pursue acquisitions or construction of new farms, we will need to obtain additional licenses to operate those farms, where required.  We are also exposed to dilution of our licenses where a government issues new licenses to fish farmers other than us, thereby reducing the current value of our fish farming licenses. Governments may change the way licenses are distributed or otherwise dilute or invalidate our licenses. If we are unable to maintain or obtain new fish farming licenses or if new licensing regulations dilute the value of our licenses, this may have a material adverse effect on our business.

It is possible that regulatory authorities could make changes in regulatory rules and policies and we would not be able to market or commercialize our product in the intended manner and/or the changes could adversely impact the realization of the NaturalShrimp technology market potential.

Failure to ensure food safety and compliance with food safety standards could result in serious adverse consequences for us.

As our end products are for human consumption, food safety issues (both actual and perceived) may have a negative impact on the reputation of and demand for our products. In addition to the need to comply with relevant food safety regulations, it is of critical importance that our products are safe and perceived as safe and healthy in all relevant markets.

Our products may be subject to contamination by food-borne pathogens, such as Listeria monocytogenes, Clostridia, Salmonella and E. Coli or contaminants. These pathogens and substances are found in the environment; therefore, there is a risk that one or more of these organisms and pathogens can be introduced into our products as a result of improper handling, poor processing hygiene or cross-contamination by us, the ultimate consumer or any intermediary. We have little, if any, control over handling procedures once we ship our products for distribution.  Furthermore, we may not be able to prevent contamination of our shrimp by pollutants such as polychlorinated biphenyls, or PCBs, dioxins or heavy metals.

An inadvertent shipment of contaminated products may be a violation of law and may lead to product liability claims, product recalls (which may not entirely mitigate the risk of product liability claims), increased scrutiny and penalties, including injunctive relief and plant closings, by regulatory agencies, and adverse publicity.

Increased quality demands from authorities in the future relating to food safety may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flow. Legislation and guidelines with tougher requirements are expected and may imply higher costs for the food industry. In particular, the ability to trace products through all stages of development, certification and documentation is becoming increasingly required under food safety regulations. Further, limitations on additives and use of medical products in the farmed shrimp industry may be imposed, which could result in higher costs for us.

The food industry in general experiences high levels of customer awareness with respect to food safety and product quality, information and traceability. We may fail to meet new and exacting customer requirements, which could reduce demand for our products.
 
Our success is dependent upon our   ability to commercialize our shrimp   p r oduc t i o n   techno l o g y .
 
We are currently in the production stage but have not yet commenced full commercial operations.  Since inception, we have been engaged principally in the research and development of the NaturalShrimp technology.  Therefore, we have a limited operating history upon which an evaluation of our prospects can be made.   Our prospects must be considered in light of the risk, uncertainties, expenses, delays and difficulties associated with the establishment of a new business in the evolving food industry, as well as those risks encountered in the shift from development to commercialization of new technology and products or services based upon such technology.
 
We have developed our first commercial system that employs the NaturalShrimp technology but additional work is required to incorporate that technology into a system capable of accommodating thousands of customers, which is the minimum capability we believe is necessary to compete in the marketplace. The principal purpose of seeking investment capital is to provide working capital for our current operations.

Our shrimp production technology may not operate as intended.

Although we have successfully tested our NaturalShrimp technology, our approach, which is still fairly new in the industry, may not operate as intended or may be subject to other factors that we have not yet considered.  These may include the impact of new pathogens or other biological risks, low oxygen levels, algal blooms, fluctuating seawater temperatures, predation or escapes.  Any of the foregoing may result in physical deformities to our shrimp or affect our ability to increase shrimp production, which may have a material adverse effect on our operations.

Our success is dependent upon our ability to protect our intellectual property.
 
Our  success  will  depend  in  part  on  our  ability  to  obtain  and  enforce  protection  for  our intellectual property in the United States and other countries.  It is possible that our intellectual property protection could fail.  It is possible that the claims for patents or other intellectual property protections could be denied or invalidated or that our protections will not be sufficiently broad to protect our technology.  It is also possible that our intellectual property will not provide protection against competitive products, or will not otherwise be commercially viable.
 
 
7

 
 
Our commercial success will depend in part on our ability to commercialize our shrimp production without infringing on patents or proprietary rights of others.  We cannot guarantee that other companies or individuals have not or will not independently develop substantially equivalent proprietary rights or that other parties have not or will not be issued patents that may prevent the sale of our products or require licensing and the payment of significant fees or royalties in order for us to be able to carry on our business.

As the owner of real estate, we are subject to risks under environmental laws, the cost of compliance with which and any violation of which could materially adversely affect us.

Our operating expenses could be higher than anticipated due to the cost of complying with existing and future laws and regulations. Various environmental laws may impose liability on the current or prior owner or operator of real property for removal or remediation of hazardous or toxic substances. Current or prior owners or operators may also be liable for government fines and damages for injuries to persons, natural resources and adjacent property. These environmental laws often impose liability whether or not the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence or disposal of the hazardous or toxic substances. The cost of complying with environmental laws could materially adversely affect our results of operations, and such costs could exceed the value of our facility. In addition, the presence of hazardous or toxic substances, or the failure to properly manage, dispose of or remediate such substances, may adversely affect our ability to use, sell or rent our property or to borrow using our property as collateral which, in turn, could reduce our revenue and our financing ability. We have not engaged independent environmental consultants to assess the likelihood of any environmental contamination or liabilities and have not obtained a Phase I environmental assessments on our property.  However, even if we did obtain a Phase I environmental assessment report, such reports are limited in scope and may not reveal all existing material environmental contamination.

Risks Related to Financing Our Business
 
Expansion of our operations will require significant capital expenditures for which we may be unable to obtain sufficient financing.
 
Our need for additional capital may adversely affect our financial condition.  We have no sustained history of earnings and have operated at a loss since we commenced business.  We have relied, and continue to rely, on external sources of financing to meet our capital requirements, to continue developing our proprietary technology, to build our production facilities, and to otherwise implement our corporate development and investment strategies.
 
We plan to obtain the future funding that we will need through the debt and equity markets but there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional funding when it is required.  If we fail to obtain the funding that we need when it is required, we may have to forego or delay potentially valuable opportunities to build shrimp production facilities or default on existing funding commitments to third parties.  Our limited operating history may make it difficult to obtain future financing.

Our ability to generate positive cash flow is uncertain.

To develop and expand our business, we will need to make significant up-front investments in our manufacturing capacity and incur research and development, sales and marketing and general and administrative expenses.  In addition, our growth will require a significant investment in working capital.  Our business will require significant amounts of working capital to meet our production requirements and support our growth.

We cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to raise the capital necessary to meet these requirements.  If adequate funds are not available or are not available on satisfactory terms, we may be required to significantly curtail our operations and may not be able to fund our current production requirements — let alone fund expansion, take advantage of unanticipated acquisition opportunities, develop or enhance our products, or respond to competitive pressures.  Any failure to obtain such additional financing could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
 
Because we may never have net income from our operations, our business may fail.
 
We have no history of revenues and profitability from operations.  There can be no assurance that we will ever operate profitably.  Our success is significantly dependent on uncertain events, including successful development of our technology, establishing satisfactory manufacturing arrangements and processes, and distributing and selling our products.
 
Before receiving revenues from sales to customers of our products, we anticipate that we will incur increased operating expenses without realizing any revenues.  We therefore expect to incur significant losses.  If we are unable to generate significant revenues from sales of our products, we will not be able to earn profits or continue operations.  We can provide no assurance that we will generate any revenues or ever achieve profitability.  If we are unsuccessful in addressing these risks, our business will fail and investors may lose all of their investment in our Company.

Risks Related to Doing Business in Foreign Countries
 
Our operations in foreign countries are subject to political, economic, legal and regulatory risks.

The following aspects of political, economic, legal and regulatory systems in foreign countries create uncertainty with respect to many of the legal and business decisions that we make:

●  
cancellation or renegotiation of contracts due to uncertain enforcement and recognition procedures of judicial decisions;
 
●  
disadvantages of competing against companies from countries that are not subject to U.S. laws and regulations, including the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act;
 
●  
changes in foreign laws or regulations that adversely impact our business;
 
●  
changes in tax laws that adversely impact our business, including, but not limited to, increases in the tax rates and retroactive tax claims;
 
●  
royalty and license fee increases;
 
●  
expropriation or nationalization of property;
 
●  
currency fluctuations;
 
●  
foreign exchange controls;
 
●  
import and export regulations;
 
●  
changes in environmental controls;
 
●  
risks of loss due to civil strife, acts of war and insurrection; and
 
●  
other risks arising out of foreign governmental sovereignty over the areas in which our operations are conducted.

Consequently, our development and production activities in foreign countries may be substantially affected by factors beyond our control, any of which could materially adversely affect our business, prospects, financial position and results of operations.  Furthermore, in the event of a dispute arising from our operations in other countries, we may be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of courts outside the United States or may not be successful in subjecting non–U.S. persons to the jurisdiction of the courts in the United States, which could adversely affect the outcome of a dispute.

The cost of complying with governmental regulations in foreign countries may adversely affect our business operations.

We may be subject to various governmental regulations in foreign countries.  These regulations may change depending on prevailing political or economic conditions.  In order to comply with these regulations, we believe that we may be required to obtain permits for producing shrimp and file reports concerning our operations. These regulations affect how we carry on our business, and in order to comply with them, we may incur increased costs and delay certain activities pending receipt of requisite permits and approvals.  If we fail to comply with applicable regulations and requirements, we may become subject to enforcement actions, including orders issued by regulatory or judicial authorities requiring us to cease or curtail our operations, or take corrective measures involving capital expenditures, installation of additional equipment or remedial actions. We may be required to compensate third parties for loss or damage suffered by reason of our activities, and may face civil or criminal fines or penalties imposed for violations of applicable laws or regulations.  Amendments to current laws, regulations and permits governing our operations and activities could affect us in a materially adverse way and could force us to increase expenditures or abandon or delay the development of shrimp production facilities.
 
 
9

 
 
Our international operations involve the use of foreign currencies, which subjects us to exchange rate fluctuations and other currency risks.
 
The revenues and expenses of our international operations are generally denominated in local currencies, which subject us to exchange rate fluctuations between such local currencies and the U.S. dollar. These exchange rate fluctuations will subject us to currency translation risk with respect to the reported results of our international operations, as well as to other risks sometimes associated with international operations. In the future, we could experience fluctuations in financial results from our operations outside of the United States, and there can be no assurance we will be able, contractually or otherwise, to reduce the currency risks associated with our international operations.

Our insurance coverage may be inadequate to cover all significant risk exposures.

We will be exposed to liabilities that are unique to the products we provide. While we intend to maintain insurance for certain risks, the amount of our insurance coverage may not be adequate to cover all claims or liabilities, and we may be forced to bear substantial costs resulting from risks and uncertainties of our business. It is also not possible to obtain insurance to protect against all operational risks and liabilities. The failure to obtain adequate insurance coverage on terms favorable to us, or at all, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We do not have any business interruption insurance. Any business disruption or natural disaster could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources.

Risks Related to Ownership of our Common Stock
 
We have limited capitalization and may require financing, which may not be available.
 
We have limited capitalization, which increases our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions, limits our flexibility in planning for or reacting to changes in our business and industry and may place us at a competitive disadvantage to competitors with sufficient or excess capitalization.  If we are unable to obtain sufficient financing on satisfactory terms and conditions, we will be forced to curtail or abandon our plans or operations.  Our ability to obtain financing will depend upon a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control.
 
A limited public trading market exists for our common stock, which makes it more difficult for our stockholders to sell their common stock in the public markets.  Any trading in our shares may have a significant effect on our stock prices.
 
Although our common stock is listed for quotation on the OTC Pink Marketplace under the symbol “MYDR”, there have not been any reported trades in our common stock for at least the last year.  There is currently no active trading market for our common stock and such a market may not develop or be sustained.  As a result, any trading price of our common stock on the OTC Pink Marketplace may not be an accurate indicator of the trading price of our common stock.  Any trading in our shares could have a significant effect on our stock price.  If a public market for our common stock does not develop, then investors may not be able to resell the shares of our common stock that they have purchased and may lose all of their investment.  No assurance can be given that an active market will develop or that a stockholder will ever be able to liquidate its shares of common stock without considerable delay, if at all.  Many brokerage firms may not be willing to effect transactions in the securities.  Even if an Investor finds a broker willing to effect a transaction in our securities, the combination of brokerage commissions, state transfer taxes, if any, and any other selling costs may exceed the selling price.  Furthermore, our stock price may be impacted by factors that are unrelated or disproportionate to our operating performance.  These market fluctuations, as well as general economic, political and market conditions, such as recessions, interest rates or international currency fluctuations may adversely affect the market price and liquidity of our common stock.
 
 
10

 
 
Our stock price may be volatile.

The market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors, many of which are beyond our control, including the following:

●  
limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales (or lack of sales) could result in positive or negative pricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;
 
●  
actual or anticipated variations in our quarterly operating results;
 
●  
changes in our earnings estimates;
 
●  
our ability to obtain adequate working capital financing;
 
●  
changes in market valuations of similar companies;
 
●  
publication (or lack of publication) of research reports about us;
 
●  
changes in applicable laws or regulations, court rulings, enforcement and legal actions;
 
●  
loss of any strategic relationships;
 
●  
additions or departures of key management personnel;
 
●  
actions by our stockholders (including transactions in our shares);
 
●  
speculation in the press or investment community;
 
●  
increases in market interest rates, which may increase our cost of capital;
 
●  
changes in our industry;
 
●  
competitive pricing pressures;
 
●  
our ability to execute our business plan; and
 
●  
economic and other external factors.
 
In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies.  These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
 
Our stock is categorized as a penny stock.  Trading of our stock may be restricted by the SEC’s penny stock regulations which may limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.

Our stock is categorized as a “penny stock”, as that term is defined in SEC Rule 3a51-1, which generally provides that “penny stock”, is any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than US$5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions.  Our securities are covered by the penny stock rules, including Rule 15g-9, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and accredited investors.  The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market.  The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account.  The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation.  In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction.  These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules.  Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities and reduces the number of potential investors.  We believe that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of our common stock.

You should be aware that, according to SEC Release No. 34-29093, the market for “penny stocks” has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse.  Such patterns include:  (1) control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer; (2) manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases; (3) boiler room practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons; (4) excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differential and markups by selling broker-dealers; and (5) the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the resulting inevitable collapse of those prices and with consequent investor losses.  The occurrence of these patterns or practices could increase the future volatility of our share price.
 
FINRA sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.
 
In addition to the “penny stock” rules described above, FINRA has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer.  Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information.  Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers.  The FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares.
 
To date, we have not paid any cash dividends and no cash dividends will be paid in the foreseeable future.
 
We do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future and we may not have sufficient funds legally available to pay dividends.  Even if the funds are legally available for distribution, we may nevertheless decide not to pay any dividends.  We presently intend to retain all earnings for our operations.
 
The existence of indemnification rights to our directors, officers and employees may result in substantial expenditures by our Company and may discourage lawsuits against our directors, officers and employees.
 
Our bylaws contain indemnification provisions for our directors, officers and employees, and we have entered into indemnification agreements with our officer and directors.  The foregoing indemnification obligations could result in us incurring substantial expenditures to cover the cost of settlement or damage awards against directors and officers, which we may be unable to recoup.  These provisions and resultant costs may also discourage us from bringing a lawsuit against directors and officers for breaches of their fiduciary duties, and may similarly discourage the filing of derivative litigation by our stockholders against our directors and officers even though such actions, if successful, might otherwise benefit us and our stockholders.
 
If we fail to develop or maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent financial fraud.  As a result, current and potential stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting.

We are subject to the risk that sometime in the future, our independent registered public accounting firm could communicate to the board of directors that we have deficiencies in our internal control structure that they consider to be “significant deficiencies”.  A “significant deficiency” is defined as a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal controls over financial reporting such that there is more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented or detected by the entity’s internal controls.
 
Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud.  If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, we could be subject to regulatory action or other litigation and our operating results could be harmed.  We are required to document and test our internal control procedures to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “ Sarbanes-Oxley Act ” or “ SOX ”), which requires our management to annually assess the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.
 
We currently are not an “accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 ( Section 404 ) requires us to include an internal control report with our Annual Report on Form 10-K.  That report must include management’s assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the end of the fiscal year.  This report must also include disclosure of any material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting that we have identified.  As of March 31, 2014, the management of the Company assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ( “COSO” ) and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments.  Management concluded, during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014, that the Company’s internal controls and procedures were not effective to detect the inappropriate application of U.S. GAAP rules.  Management realized there were deficiencies in the design or operation of the Company’s internal control that adversely affected the Company’s internal controls which management considers to be material weaknesses.  A material weakness in the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting could result in an increased chance of fraud and the loss of customers, reduce our ability to obtain financing and require additional expenditures to comply with these requirements, each of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
 
Our intended business, operations and accounting are expected to be substantially more complex than they have been in the past.  It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.  We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop and implement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures.  If we are unable to comply with the internal controls requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, then we may not be able to obtain the independent accountant certifications required by such act, which may preclude us from keeping our filings with the SEC current.
 
 
12

 
 
If we are unable to maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, as those standards are modified, supplemented, or amended from time to time, we may not be able to ensure that we can conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404.  Failure to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment could cause us to face regulatory action and cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, either of which could adversely affect the value of our common stock.
 
As a public company, we will incur significant increased operating costs and our management will be required to devote substantial time to new compliance initiatives.
 
Although our management has significant experience in the food industry, it has only limited experience operating the Company as a public company.  To operate effectively, we will be required to continue to implement changes in certain aspects of our business and develop, manage and train management level and other employees to comply with on-going public company requirements.  Failure to take such actions, or delay in the implementation thereof, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as well as rules subsequently implemented by the SEC, imposes various requirements on public companies, including requiring establishment and maintenance of effective disclosure and financial controls and changes in corporate governance practices.  Our management and other personnel will need to devote a substantial amount of time to these new compliance initiatives.  Moreover, these rules and regulations will increase our legal and financial compliance costs and will make some activities more time-consuming and costly.
 
Our independent registered public accounting firm has issued its audit opinion on our consolidated financial statements appearing in our annual report on Form 10-K, including an explanatory paragraph as to an uncertainty with the respect to our ability to continue as a going concern.
 
The report of WDM Chartered Accountants, our independent registered public accounting firm, with respect to our consolidated financial statements and the related notes for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014, indicates that there was substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty.

(ii)  
Each NS Entity hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that in the event any payment shall be required to be made to Bank and/or Guarantor under this Agreement, such NS Entity will contribute, to the maximum extent permitted by law, such amounts to each other so as to maximize the aggregate amount paid to the Bank and/or Guarantor under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(e)   One Agreement .  This Agreement and any related security or other agreements required by this Agreement, collectively represent the sum of the understandings and agreements between the Parties hereto concerning this credit, replace any prior oral or written agreements between the Bank, Guarantor and the Borrower and NS Entities concerning this credit, and are intended by the Parties hereto as the final, complete and exclusive statements of the terms agreed to by them.  In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and any other agreements required by this Agreement, this Agreement will prevail.

4.04 Events of Default .
 
(a)            Event of Default .  During the period during which an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:
 
(1)   Pledgee shall have all of the rights and remedies with respect to the Pledged Interests of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code (whether or not said Code is in effect in the jurisdiction where the rights and remedies are asserted) and such additional rights and remedies to which a secured party is entitled under the laws in effect in any jurisdiction where any rights and remedies hereunder may be asserted, including, without limitation, the right to exercise all voting, consensual and other powers of ownership pertaining to the Pledged Interests as if Pledgee were the sole and absolute owners thereof (and Pledgor agrees to take all such action as may be appropriate to give effect to such right);
 
(2)  Pledgee in its discretion, may in its name or in the name of Pledgor, demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable on account of or in exchange for any of the Pledged Interests, but shall be under no obligation to do so; and
 
(3)  Pledgee may, upon fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice to Pledgor of the time and place, with respect to the Pledged Interests or any part thereof that shall then be or shall thereafter come into the possession, custody or control of Pledgee or any of its agents, sell, lease, assign or otherwise dispose of all or any part of such Pledged Interests, at such place or places as Pledgee deems best, and for cash or for credit or for future delivery (without thereby assuming any credit risk), at public or private sale, without demand of performance or notice of intention to effect any such disposition or of the time or place thereof (except such notice as is required above or by applicable statute and cannot be waived), and Pledgee or anyone else may be the purchaser, lessee, assignee or recipient of any or all of the Pledged Interests so disposed of at any public sale (or, to the extent permitted by law, at any private sale) and thereafter hold the same absolutely, free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind, including any right or equity of redemption (statutory or otherwise), of Pledgor, any such demand, notice and right or equity being hereby expressly waived and released. Pledgee may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for the sale, and such sale may be made at any time or place to which the sale may be so adjourned.
 
(b)           The proceeds of each collection, sale or other disposition under this Section 4.04 shall be applied in accordance with Section 4.06 hereof.
 
(c)           Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, and applicable state securities laws, Pledgee may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire the Pledged Collateral for its own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Pledgor acknowledges that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to Pledgee than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions, and, agrees that given such circumstances a private sale is a commercially reasonable manner of disposing of the Pledged Collateral and that Pledgee shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for public sale.
 
(d)           Pledgee may act in its own best interest in pursuing remedies under this Agreement without regard to the interests of the Pledgor or any of its agents or representatives.  The powers conferred on Pledgee hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Pledged Collateral and shall not impose any duty on it to exercise any such powers.  To the extent permitted by applicable law, Pledgor waives all claims, damages, and demands it may acquire against Pledgee arising out of the exercise by Pledgee of its rights hereunder, except for those arising from Pledgee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
 
4.05            Private Sale . Pledgee shall incur no liability as a result of the sale of the Pledged Collateral, or any part thereof, at any private sale pursuant to Section 4.04 hereof conducted in a commercially reasonable manner. Pledgor hereby waives any claims against Pledgee arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Pledged Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price that might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Guaranty Repayment.

4.06            Application of Proceeds .

(b)           Second, to payment in full of the Guaranty Repayment (if any) and the payment of the reasonable costs and expenses of such collection, sale or other realization, including reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of Pledgee and the reasonable fees and expenses of its agents and counsel, and all reasonable expenses incurred and advances made by Pledgee in connection therewith; and
 
(e)           Finally, to the payment to Pledgor, or its respective successors or assigns, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct, of any surplus then remaining.
 
As used in this Section 4, “ proceeds ” of Pledged Collateral shall mean cash, securities and other property realized in respect of, and distributions in kind of, Pledged Collateral, including any thereof received under any reorganization, liquidation or adjustment of debt of Pledgor or any issuer of or obligor on any of the Pledged Collateral.
 
4.07            Attorney-in-Fact . Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Pledgee is hereby appointed Pledgor’s attorney-in-fact for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Section 4 and taking any action and executing any instruments that Pledgee may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which appointment as attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, so long as Pledgee shall be entitled under this Section 4 to make collections in respect of the Pledged Collateral, Pledgee shall have the right and power to receive, endorse and collect all checks made payable to the order of Pledgor representing any dividend, payment or other distribution in respect of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same.
 
4.08            Continuing Security Interest; Termination .  This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Pledged Collateral and shall (i) remain in full force and effect until the payment in full of the Notes, Guaranty Repayment (if any) and any other amounts payable pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents, (ii) be binding upon Pledgor and its respective successors and assigns, and (iii) inure, together with the rights and remedies of Pledgee hereunder, to the benefit of Pledgee and its successors, transferees and assigns.  When the Notes, the Guaranty Repayment and any other amounts payable pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents shall have been paid in full, this Agreement shall terminate, and Pledgee shall, at the Pledgee’s expense, forthwith cause to be assigned, transferred and delivered, against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, any remaining Pledged Collateral and money received in respect thereof, to or on the order of Pledgor.
 
4.09            Further Assurances . Pledgor agrees that, from time to time upon the written request of Pledgee, Pledgor will execute and deliver such further documents and do such other acts and things as may be necessary or desirable or as Pledgee may reasonably request in order to perfect and protect any security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or to enable Pledgee to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Pledged Collateral. Pledgor agrees to furnish any such information to Pledgee promptly upon reasonable request by Pledgee.
 
4.10            Transfer of Pledged Interests . Prior to the payment in full of the Notes, the Guaranty Repayment (if any) and any other amounts payable pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents, Pledgor shall not transfer, assign, sell or otherwise dispose of its Pledged Interests without the prior written consent of Pledgee.
 
Section 5. Miscellaneous .

F&T Rights Agreement Exhibit A
 
The test is deemed successful if the shrimp under test show good growth and good survival as measured below while the system maintains good water quality with a reasonable operating cost during the 12-week test period.  The initial PL stocking population density for the test is 400 shrimp per cubic meter.
 
 
1.
The shrimp growth rate must meet or exceed the shrimp 24-week growth shown below during the 12-week period of the test.  For example, if the 12-week test starts with an average shrimp weight of 0.5 grams (day 28), then a successful growth rate test is indicated by the average weight of the shrimp reaching at least 12.5 grams by the end of the 12-week test (day 112).
 
 
 
2.
The shrimp survival must meet or exceed the shrimp 24-week survival shown below during the 12-week period of the test.  For example, if the 12-week test starts with an 89% survival (day 28), then a successful survival test is indicated by a shrimp survival of at least 63% at the end of the 12-week test (day 112).
 
 
 
5

 
 
 
3.
At the end of the 12-week test, an analysis will be performed to determine the total operating cost required for raising shrimp in a production facility designed to produce 6,000 pounds per week.  The total operating cost must be less than $TBD per pound of shrimp.
 
 
4.
During the 12-week test, the following bacteria and water quality of the shrimp tank will be monitored to ensure the proper growth environment for the shrimp:
