NOTE 1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS AND PRESENTATION

 

Organization

 

PetLife Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “PetLife”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 5, 2002 as Aztek Ventures Inc. Effective November 13, 2007, we filed a Certificate of Amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to change our name to Genesis Uranium Corp. Effective April 21, 2008, we amended our Articles of Incorporation to change our name to Vault Technology, Inc. to reflect the change in our business focus beyond solely that of uranium exploration. Effective July 10, 2009, we filed a Certificate of Amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to change our name to “Modern Renewable Technologies, Inc. (“Modern”). On May 27, 2011, Modern, merged with Eco Ventures Group, Inc., and the name of the Company was changed to Eco Ventures Group, Inc. On July 15, 2013, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Clear TV Ventures, Inc. Under the terms of the merger, Clear TV became the surviving corporation. On June 26, 2014, Eco Ventures Group, Inc. entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with its subsidiary, PetLife Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Nevada corporation, with PetLife Pharmaceuticals, Inc. being the surviving entity. As part of that merger, the name of the Company was changed to PetLife Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and each 15 shares of our common stock were exchanged for one share in the surviving company. Effective August 12, 2014, we completed the closing of the Share Exchange Agreement and the acquisition of PetLife and changed our name to PetLife Pharmaceuticals, Inc. On July 20, 2016, PetLife Pharmaceuticals, Inc. entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with its wholly-owned subsidiary, PetLife Merger Subsidiary, Inc., a Nevada corporation, with PetLife Merger Subsidiary, Inc. being the surviving entity. As part of that merger, the name of the PetLife Merger Subsidiary was changed back to PetLife Pharmaceuticals, Inc. The purpose of the subsidiary merger was to effectuate a 1 for 5 reverse exchange of PetLife’s common stock pursuant to the terms of the merger. The combined entities continue on public markets pursuant to Rule 12g-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

 

Nature of Operations

 

PetLife is a registered U.S. Veterinary Pharmaceutical company whose mission is to bring its scientifically proven, potentiated bioactive medication and nutraceuticals, VitalZul™, to the world of veterinary oncology. The Company specializes in the research, development, sales and support of advanced drugs and nutraceuticals for pet cancer and autoimmune related diseases such as arthritis. The Company will also introduce a line natural pet food and other complementary products.

 

Basis of presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of PetLife Pharmaceuticals, Inc. have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and done under §240.13(a) of the Securities Act. The results of operations for the interim period ended February 28, 2017 shown in this report are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year ending August 31, 2017. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the information contained herein reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s results of operations, financial position and cash flows. The unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2016, filed on December 21, 2016 and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in the accompanying financial statements include the amortization period for intangible assets, valuation and impairment valuation of intangible assets, allowance for accounts receivable, depreciable lives of the web site and fixed assets, and valuation of share-based payments.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

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

 

Property, Equipment and Depreciation

 

Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the related assets of three years for computer equipment, five years for office furniture and fixtures, and the lesser of the lease term or the useful life of the leased equipment. Leasehold improvements, if any, would be amortized over the lesser of the lease term or the useful life of the improvements. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs along with fixed assets below our capitalization threshold are expensed as incurred.

Accounting for Derivatives

 

The Company evaluates its convertible debt, options, warrants or other contracts to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for. The result of this accounting treatment is that under certain circumstances the fair value of the derivative is marked-to-market each balance sheet date and recorded as a liability. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, the change in fair value is recorded in the statement of operations as other income or expense. Upon conversion or exercise of a derivative instrument, the instrument is marked to fair value at the conversion date and then that fair value is reclassified to equity. Equity instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification under this accounting standard are reclassified to liability at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company accounts for long-lived assets in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ASC 360-10, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” This statement requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company measures its financial assets and liabilities in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. For certain of our financial instruments, including cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and short term loans the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturities.

 

We follow accounting guidance for financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. This standard defines fair value, provides guidance for measuring fair value and requires certain disclosures. This standard does not require any new fair value measurements, but rather applies to all other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. This guidance does not apply to measurements related to share-based payments. This guidance discusses valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow), and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). The guidance utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:

 

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

 

Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore developed using estimates and assumptions developed by us, which reflect those that a market participant would use.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue for our services in accordance with ASC 605-10, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements.” Under these guidelines, revenue is recognized on transactions when all of the following exist: persuasive evidence of an arrangement did exist, delivery of service has occurred, the sales price to the buyer is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. The Company has no revenue streams at this time.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for stock-based instruments issued to employees in accordance with ASC Topic 718. ASC Topic 718 requires companies to recognize in the statement of operations the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity based compensation issued to employees. The Company accounts for non-employee share-based awards in accordance with ASC Topic 505-50. The value of the portion of an award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense over the requisite service periods using the straight-line attribution method. The Company estimates the fair value of each stock option at the grant date by using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company estimates the fair value of each stock option at the grant date by using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.

Income Taxes

 

The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 740-10, “Accounting for Uncertain Income Tax Positions.” 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. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740-10, 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 should be reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. The Company believes its tax positions are all highly certain of being upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for unrecognized tax benefits. As of February 28, 2017, tax years 2012 - 2016 remain open for IRS audit. The Company has received no notice of audit from the IRS for any of the open tax years.

 

Company adopted ASC 740-10, Definition of Settlement in FASB Interpretation No. 48,” (“ASC 740-10”), which was issued on May 2, 2007. ASC 740-10 amends FIN 48 to provide guidance on how an entity should determine whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits. The term “effectively settled” replaces the term “ultimately settled” when used to describe recognition, and the terms “settlement” or “settled” replace the terms “ultimate settlement” or “ultimately settled” when used to describe measurement of a tax position under ASC 740-10. ASC 740-10 clarifies that a tax position can be effectively settled upon the completion of an examination by a taxing authority without being legally extinguished. For tax positions considered effectively settled, an entity would recognize the full amount of tax benefit, even if the tax position is not considered more likely than not to be sustained based solely on the basis of its technical merits and the statute of limitations remains open. The adoption of ASC 740-10 did not have an impact on the accompanying financial statements.

 

Net Earnings (Loss) Per Share

 

In accordance with ASC 260-10, “Earnings Per Share,” basic net earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the net earnings (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share are computed using the weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding during the period.

 

Reclassifications

 

For comparability, certain prior period amounts have been reclassified, where appropriate, to conform to the financial statement presentation used in 2017. The reclassifications have no impact on net loss.

 

Effect of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company reviews new accounting standards and updates as issued. No new standards or updates had any material effect on these unaudited financial statements. The accounting pronouncements and updates issued subsequent to the date of these audited financial statements that were considered significant by management were evaluated for the potential effect on these audited financial statements. Management does not believe any of the subsequent pronouncements will have a material effect on these audited financial statements as presented and does not anticipate the need for any future restatement of these audited financial statements because of the retro-active application of any accounting pronouncements issued subsequent to February 28, 2017 through the date these audited financial statements were issued.

 

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an ASU on lease accounting. The ASU requires the lease rights and obligations arising from lease contracts, including existing and new arrangements, to be recognized as assets and liabilities on the balance sheet. The ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 with early adoption permitted. While the Company is still evaluating the ASU, the Company expects the adoption of the ASU to have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition due to the recognition of the lease rights and obligations as assets and liabilities. The Company does not expect the ASU to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, and the ASU will have no effect on cash flows.

 

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN

 

The Company has a net loss for the six months ended February 28, 2017 of $20,442,414 and working capital deficit as of February 28, 2017 of $912,416, and has used cash in operations of $339,409 for the six months ended February 28, 2017. In addition, as of February 28, 2017, the Company had a stockholders’ deficit and accumulated deficit of $912,416 and $27,573,744, respectively. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern and the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The ability of the Company to continue its operations is dependent on the execution of management’s plans, which include the raising of capital through the debt and/or equity markets, until such time that funds provided by operations are sufficient to fund working capital requirements. If the Company were not to continue as a going concern, it would likely not be able to realize its assets at values comparable to the carrying value or the fair value estimates reflected in the balances set out in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

There can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in generating additional cash from the equity/debt markets or other sources to be used for operations. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of assets and classification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary. Based on the Company’s current resources, the Company will not be able to continue to operate without additional immediate funding. Should the Company not be successful in obtaining the necessary financing to fund its operations, the Company would need to curtail certain or all operational activities and/or contemplate the sale of its assets, if necessary.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

SPECIAL NOTE CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

We believe that it is important to communicate our future expectations to our security holders and to the public. This report, therefore, contains statements about future events and expectations which are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Sections 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including the statements about our plans, objectives, expectations and prospects under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” You can expect to identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “may,” “might,” “could,” “would,” “will,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “plan,” “estimate,” “project,” “expect,” “intend,” “seek” and other similar expressions. Any statement contained in this report that is not a statement of historical fact may be deemed to be a forward-looking statement. Although we believe that the plans, objectives, expectations and prospects reflected in or suggested by our forward-looking statements are reasonable, those statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements, and we can give no assurance that our plans, objectives, expectations and prospects will be achieved.

 

Important factors that might cause our actual results to differ materially from the results contemplated by the forward-looking statements are contained in the “Risk Factors” section of and elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2016 and in our subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The following discussion of our results of operations should be read together with our financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report.

 

Company Overview

 

PetLife Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “PetLife”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 5, 2002 as Aztek Ventures Inc. Effective November 13, 2007, we filed a Certificate of Amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to change our name to Genesis Uranium Corp. Effective April 21, 2008, we amended our Articles of Incorporation to change our name to Vault Technology, Inc. to reflect the change in our business focus beyond solely that of uranium exploration. Effective July 10, 2009, we filed a Certificate of Amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to change our name to “Modern Renewable Technologies, Inc. (“Modern”). On May 27, 2011, Modern, merged with Eco Ventures Group, Inc., and the name of the Company was changed to Eco Ventures Group, Inc. On July 15, 2013, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Clear TV Ventures, Inc. Under the terms of the merger, Clear TV became the surviving corporation. On June 26, 2014, Eco Ventures Group, Inc. entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with its subsidiary, PetLife Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Nevada corporation, with PetLife Pharmaceuticals, Inc. being the surviving entity. As part of that merger, the name of the Company was changed to PetLife Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and each 15 shares of our common stock were exchanged for one share in the surviving company. Effective August 12, 2014, we completed the closing of the Share Exchange Agreement and the acquisition of PetLife and changed our name to PetLife Pharmaceuticals, Inc. On July 20, 2016, PetLife Pharmaceuticals, Inc. entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with its wholly-owned subsidiary, PetLife Merger Subsidiary, Inc., a Nevada corporation, with PetLife Merger Subsidiary, Inc. being the surviving entity. As part of that merger, the name of the PetLife Merger Subsidiary was changed back to PetLife Pharmaceuticals, Inc. The purpose of the subsidiary merger was to effectuate a 1 for 5 reverse exchange of PetLife’s common stock pursuant to the terms of the merger. The combined entities continue on public markets pursuant to Rule 12g-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Results of Operations

 

For the three months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016

 

Operating expenses

 

For the three months ended February 28, 2017 we incurred $1,254,937 in operating expenses as compared to $130,542 in operating expenses we incurred for the prior period. Operating expenses for the three months ended February 28, 2017 increased due to the increase in activity relating to development stage expenses and stock based compensation. Stock-based compensation made up $1,212,735 and $0 of operating expenses for the three months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016, respectively.

 

Net loss

 

We incurred a net loss of $1,316,781 for the three months ended February 28, 2017 as compared to the net loss we incurred for the three months ended February 29, 2016 of $130,542. Net loss for the three months ended February 28, 2017 increased due to the increase in activity relating to development stage expenses and stock-based compensation of $1,212,735.

 

For the six months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016

 

Operating expenses

 

For the six months ended February 28, 2017 we incurred $20,368,404 in operating expenses as compared to $240,641 in operating expenses we incurred for the prior period. Operating expenses for the six months ended February 28, 2017 increased due to the increase in activity relating to development stage expenses and stock based compensation. Stock-based compensation made up $20,006,174 and $0 of operating expenses for the six months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016, respectively.

 

Net loss

 

We incurred a net loss of $20,442,414 for the six months ended February 28, 2017 as compared to the net loss we incurred for the six months ended February 29, 2016 of $240,641. Net loss for the six months ended February 28, 2017 increased due to the increase in activity relating to development stage expenses and stock based compensation. Stock based compensation made up $20,006,174 and $0 of net loss for the six months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016, respectively.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We used cash in operations of $339,409 for the six months ended February 28, 2017 compared to cash used in operations of $0 for the six months ended February 29, 2016. The negative cash flow from operating activities for the six months ended February 28, 2017 is attributable to general and administrative costs such as professional fees and travel. Cash used in operations for the six months ended February 29, 2016 is attributable to the Company's net loss of $240,641 offset primarily by increase in accounts payable and the issuance of common stock for services.

 

We used cash in investing or financing activities of $0 and $0 for the six months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016, respectively.

 

We had cash provided by financing activities of $338,682 for the six months ended February 28, 2017, compared to $0 for the six months ended February 29, 2016. During the six months ended February 28, 2017, the Company received $246,182 from notes payable to related parties and $92,500 from convertible notes payable.

 

We will have to raise funds to pay for our expenses. We may have to borrow money from shareholders or issue debt or equity or enter into a strategic arrangement with a third party. There can be no assurance that additional capital will be available to us. We currently have no arrangements or understandings with any person to obtain funds through bank loans, lines of credit or any other sources. Since we have no such arrangements or plans currently in effect, our inability to raise funds for our operations will have a severe negative impact on our ability to remain a viable company.

 

Going Concern

 

The Company has no revenues for the six months ended February 28, 2017, has a net loss for the six months ended February 28, 2017 of $20,442,414, and working capital deficit as of February 28, 2017 of $912,416, and used cash in operations of $339,409 for the six months ended February 28, 2017. In addition, as of February 28, 2017, the Company had a stockholders’ deficit and accumulated deficit of $912,416 and $27,573,744, respectively. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern and the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The ability of the Company to continue its operations is dependent on the execution of management’s plans, which include the raising of capital through the debt and/or equity markets, until such time that funds provided by operations are sufficient to fund working capital requirements. If the Company were not to continue as a going concern, it would likely not be able to realize its assets at values comparable to the carrying value or the fair value estimates reflected in the balances set out in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

 

There can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in generating additional cash from the equity/debt markets or other sources to be used for operations. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of assets and classification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary. Based on the Company’s current resources, the Company will not be able to continue to operate without additional immediate funding. Should the Company not be successful in obtaining the necessary financing to fund its operations, the Company would need to curtail certain or all operational activities and/or contemplate the sale of its assets, if necessary.

Off-Balance sheet Arrangements

 

We currently have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make a number of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Such estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We base our estimates on historical experiences and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions. We continue to monitor significant estimates made during the preparation of our financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimates and assumptions based upon historical experience and various other factors and circumstances. We believe our estimates and assumptions are reasonable in the circumstances; however, actual results may differ from these estimates under different future conditions.

 

See Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in our audited financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2016, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed on December 21, 2016, for a discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

A smaller reporting company, as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, is not required to provide the information required by this item.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

The Securities and Exchange Commission defines the term “disclosure controls and procedures” to mean a company’s controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its chief executive and chief financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company maintains such a system of controls and procedures in an effort to ensure that all information which it is required to disclose in the reports it files under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified under the SEC’s rules and forms and that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to the chief executive and interim chief financial officer to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

 

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are not effective as of such date. The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have determined that the Company continues to have the following deficiencies which represent a material weakness:

 

  1. The Company intends to appoint additional independent directors;
  2. Lack of in-house personnel with the technical knowledge to identify and address some of the reporting issues surrounding certain complex or non-routine transactions. With material, complex and non-routine transactions, management has and will continue to seek guidance from third-party experts and/or consultants to gain a thorough understanding of these transactions;
  3. Insufficient personnel resources within the accounting function to segregate the duties over financial transaction processing and reporting;
  4. Insufficient written policies and procedures over accounting transaction processing and period end financial disclosure and reporting processes.

 

To remediate our internal control weaknesses, management intends to implement the following measures:

 

  The Company will add sufficient number of independent directors to the board and appoint additional member(s) to the Audit Committee.
  The Company will add sufficient accounting personnel to properly segregate duties and to effect a timely, accurate preparation of the financial statements.
  The Company will hire staff technically proficient at applying U.S. GAAP to financial transactions and reporting.
  Upon the hiring of additional accounting personnel, the Company will develop and maintain adequate written accounting policies and procedures.

 

14
 

 

The additional hiring is contingent upon The Company’s efforts to obtain additional funding through equity or debt and the results of its operations. Management expects to secure funds in the coming fiscal year but provides no assurances that it will be able to do so.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There are no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting other than as described elsewhere herein.

 

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

 

The Company’s management, including the CEO and CFO, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. Further, the design of the control system must reflect that there are resource constraints and that the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

 

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

 

There are no pending legal proceedings in which we are a party or in which any of our directors, officers or affiliates, any owner of record or beneficiary of more than 5% of any class of our voting securities is a party adverse to us or has a material interest adverse to us. Our property is not the subject of any pending legal proceedings.

(i) to select the officers, employees, directors, consultants and key persons of the Company and/or its Subsidiaries and Affiliates to whom Awards may from time to time be granted;

SECTION 3 STOCK ISSUABLE UNDER THE PLAN; MERGERS; SUBSTITUTION

 

(a) Stock Issuable. The maximum number of shares of Stock reserved and available for issuance under the Plan shall be 20,000,000 shares of Common Stock, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 3(b). For purposes of this limitation, the shares of Stock underlying any Awards which are forfeited, canceled, reacquired by the Company, satisfied without the issuance of Stock or otherwise terminated (other than by exercise) shall be added back to the shares of Stock available for issuance under the Plan. Subject to such overall limitation, shares of Stock may be issued up to such maximum number pursuant to any type or types of Award. The shares available for issuance under the Plan may be authorized but unissued shares of Stock or shares of Stock reacquired by the Company and held in its treasury.

 

(b) Changes in Stock. Subject to Section 3(c) hereof, if, as a result of any reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar change in the Company’s capital stock, the outstanding shares of Stock are increased or decreased or are exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other securities of the Company, or additional shares or new or different shares or other securities of the Company or other non-cash assets are distributed with respect to such shares of Stock or other securities, or, if, as a result of any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, the outstanding shares of Stock are converted into or exchanged for different number or kind of securities of the Company or any successor entity (or a Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof), the Committee shall make an appropriate or proportionate adjustment in (i) the maximum number of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan, (ii) the number and kind of shares or other securities subject to any then outstanding Awards under the Plan, (iii) the repurchase price per share subject to each outstanding Restricted Stock Award, and (iv) the exercise price and/or exchange price for each share subject to any then outstanding Stock Options under the Plan, without changing the aggregate exercise price (i.e., the exercise price multiplied by the number of Stock Options ) as to which such Stock Options remain exercisable. The adjustment by the Committee shall be final, binding and conclusive. No fractional shares of Stock shall be issued under the Plan resulting from any such adjustment, but the Committee in its discretion may make a cash payment in lieu of fractional shares.

 

4  
 

 

(c) The Committee may also adjust the number of shares subject to outstanding Awards and the exercise price and the terms of outstanding Awards to take into consideration material changes in accounting practices or principles, extraordinary dividends, acquisitions or dispositions of stock or property or any other event if it is determined by the Committee that such adjustment is appropriate to avoid distortion in the operation of the Plan, provided that no such adjustment shall be made in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, without the consent of the participant, if it would constitute a modification, extension or renewal of the Option within the meaning of Section 424(h) of the Code.

 

(d) Mergers and Other Sale Events. In the case of and subject to the consummation of (i) the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, (ii) the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company on a consolidated basis to an unrelated person or entity, (iii) a merger, reorganization or consolidation in which the outstanding shares of Stock are converted into or exchanged for a different kind of securities of the successor entity and the holders of the Company’s outstanding voting power immediately prior to such transaction do not own a majority of the outstanding voting power of the successor entity immediately upon completion of such transaction, or (iv) the sale of all of the Stock of the Company to an unrelated person or entity (in each case, regardless of the form thereof, a “Sale Event”), then (A) the Plan shall terminate upon the effective date and time of such Sale Event and (B) unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award agreements, (x) all unexercised Options, whether vested or unvested, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of such Sale Event shall expire and terminate upon the effective date and time that such Sale Event is consummated, and (y) all unvested portions of any Restricted Stock Award outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of the Sale Event shall expire and terminate upon the effective date and time that such Sale Event is consummated. In the event of such termination of the Plan pursuant to this Section 3(b), each Plan participant shall be permitted within a specified period of time prior to the consummation of the Sale Event as determined by the Committee to exercise all outstanding Options held by such participant which are then exercisable or will become exercisable immediately prior to the consummation of the Sale Event.

 

5  
 

 

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties to any Sale Event transaction may, in their sole discretion, provide for the assumption or continuation of Plan Awards theretofore granted (after taking into account any acceleration hereunder) by the successor entity, or the substitution for such Plan Awards of new Awards of the successor entity or a Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof, with an appropriate adjustment as to the number and kind of shares and the per share exercise prices (after taking into account any acceleration provided for hereunder).

 

(f) Substitute Awards. The Committee may grant Awards under the Plan in substitution for stock and stock based awards held by employees, directors or other option holders of another corporation in connection with a merger or consolidation of the employing corporation with the Company or a Subsidiary or Affiliate, or the acquisition by the Company or a Subsidiary or Affiliate of property or stock of the employing corporation. The Committee may direct that the substitute awards be granted on such terms and conditions as the Committee considers appropriate in the circumstances. Any substitute Awards granted under the Plan shall not count against the share limitation set forth in Section 3(a).

 

SECTION 4 ELIGIBILITY

 

Participants in the Plan will be such full or part-time officers, employees, directors, consultants and other key persons of the Company and/or its Subsidiaries and Affiliates who are responsible for, or contribute to, the management, growth or profitability of the Company and/or its Subsidiaries and Affiliates as are selected from time to time by the Committee in its sole discretion.

 

SECTION 5 STOCK OPTIONS

 

Any Stock Option granted under the Plan shall be pursuant to a Stock Option Agreement that shall be in such form as the Committee may from time to time approve. Option agreements need not be identical.

 

Stock Options granted under the Plan may be either Incentive Stock Options or Non-Qualified Stock Options. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to employees of (i) the Company or (ii) any Subsidiary that is a “subsidiary corporation” within the meaning of Section 424(f) of the Code or (iii) any Parent that is a “parent corporation” within the meaning of Section 424(e) of the Code. To the extent that any Option does not qualify as an Incentive Stock Option, it shall be deemed a Non-Qualified Stock Option.

 

No Incentive Stock Option shall be granted under the Plan after the Board approves the date, which is 10 years from the date the Plan.

 

(a) Terms of Stock Options. Stock Options granted under the Plan shall be subject to the following terms and conditions and shall contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Committee shall deem desirable. If the Committee so determines, Stock Options may be granted in lieu of cash compensation at the participant’s election, subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee may establish, as well as in addition to other compensation.

 

6  
 

 

(b) Exercise Price. The exercise price per share for the Stock covered by a Stock Option shall be determined by the Committee at the time of grant but shall not be less than 100 percent of the Fair Market Value on the date of grant in the case of Incentive Stock Options. If an employee owns or is deemed to own (by reason of the attribution rules of Section 424(d) of the Code) more than 10 percent of the combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any parent or subsidiary corporation and an Incentive Stock Option is granted to such employee, the option price of such Incentive Stock Option shall be not less than 110 percent of the Fair Market Value on the grant date. If the Fair Market Value is undeterminable at the time of grant due to no trading or thinly traded, an arbitrary exercise price shall be set by the Company.

 

(c) Option Term. The term of each Stock Option shall be fixed by the Committee, but no Stock Option shall be exercisable more than five years after the date the option is granted. If an employee owns or is deemed to own (by reason of the attribution rules of Section 424(d) of the Code) more than 10 percent of the combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any parent or subsidiary corporation and an Incentive Stock Option is granted to such employee, the term of such option shall be no more than five years from the date of grant.

 

(d) Exercisability; Rights of a Stockholder. Stock Options shall become exercisable at such time or times, whether or not in installments, as shall be determined by the Committee at or after the grant date. The Committee may at any time accelerate the exercisability of all or any portion of any Stock Option. An optionee shall have the rights of a stockholder only as to shares acquired upon the exercise of a Stock Option and not as to unexercised Stock Options.

 

(i) Method of Exercise . Stock Options may be exercised in whole or in part, by giving written notice of exercise to the Company, specifying the number of shares to be purchased. Payment of the purchase price may be made by one or more of the following methods to the extent provided in the Award agreement:

 

(ii) In cash, by certified or bank check, or other instrument acceptable to the Committee in U.S. funds payable to the order of the Company in an amount equal to the purchase price of such Option Shares;

 

(iii) By the optionee delivering to the Company a promissory note if the Board has expressly authorized the loan of funds to the optionee for the purpose of enabling or assisting the optionee to effect the exercise of his or her Stock Option; provided that at least so much of the exercise price as represents the par value of the Stock shall be paid other than with a promissory note;

 

(iv) If permitted by the Committee, through the delivery (or attestation to the ownership) of shares of Stock that have been purchased by the optionee on the open market or have been beneficially owned by the optionee for at least six months and are not then subject to restrictions under any Company plan. Such surrendered shares shall be valued at Fair Market Value on the exercise date;

 

7  
 

 

(v) If permitted by the Committee, by the optionee delivering to the Company a properly executed exercise notice together with irrevocable instructions to a broker to promptly deliver to the Company cash or a check payable and acceptable to the Company to pay the purchase price; provided that in the event the optionee chooses to pay the purchase price as so provided, the optionee and the broker shall comply with such procedures and enter into such agreements of indemnity and other agreements as the Committee shall prescribe as a condition of such payment procedure.

 

(vi) Payment instruments will be received subject to collection. No certificates for Option Shares so purchased will be issued to optionee until the Company has completed all steps required by law to be taken in connection with the issuance and sale of the shares, including without limitation (i) receipt of a representation from the optionee at the time of exercise of the Option that the optionee is purchasing the Option Shares for the optionee’s own account and not with a view to any sale or distribution thereof, (ii) the legending of any certificate representing the shares to evidence the foregoing representations and restrictions, and (iii) obtaining from optionee payment or provision for all withholding taxes due as a result of the exercise of the Option. The delivery of certificates representing the shares of Stock to be purchased pursuant to the exercise of a Stock Option will be contingent upon receipt from the optionee (or a purchaser acting in his or her stead in accordance with the provisions of the Stock Option) by the Company of the full purchase price for such shares and the fulfillment of any other requirements contained in the Stock Option or applicable provisions of laws. In the event an optionee chooses to pay the purchase price by previously owned shares of Stock through the attestation method, the shares of Stock transferred to the optionee upon the exercise of the Stock Option shall be net of the number of shares attested to.

 

(e) Annual Limit on Incentive Stock Options . To the extent required for “incentive stock option” treatment under Section 422 of the Code, the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time of grant) of the shares of Stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options granted under this Plan and any other plan of the Company or its parent and subsidiary corporations become exercisable for the first time by an optionee during any calendar year shall not exceed $100,000. To the extent that any Stock Option exceeds this limit, it shall constitute a Non-Qualified Stock Option.

 

(f) Non-transferability of Options . No Stock Option shall be transferable by the optionee otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and all Stock Options shall be exercisable, during the optionee’s lifetime, only by the optionee, or by the optionee’s legal representative or guardian in the event of the optionee’s incapacity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may provide in the Award agreement regarding a given Option that the optionee may transfer, without consideration for the transfer, his or her Non-Qualified Stock Options to members of his or her immediate family, to trusts for the benefit of such family members, or to partnerships in which such family members are the only partners, provided that the transferee agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Plan and the applicable Option.

 

8  
 

 

(g) Termination . Unless otherwise provided in the option agreement or determined by the Committee, upon the optionee’s termination of employment (or other business relationship) with the Company and its Subsidiaries, the optionee’s rights in his or her Stock Options shall automatically terminate.

 

SECTION 6 RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS

 

(a) Nature of Restricted Stock Awards . A Restricted Stock Award is an Award pursuant to which the Company may, in its sole discretion, grant or sell, at par value or such other higher purchase price determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, shares of Stock subject to such restrictions and conditions as the Committee may determine at the time of grant (“Restricted Stock”), which purchase price shall be payable in cash or by promissory note (recourse, partial recourse, or nonrecourse) acceptable to the Committee. Conditions may be based on continuing employment (or other business relationship) and/or achievement of pre-established performance goals and objectives. The grant of a Restricted Stock Award is contingent on the participant executing the Restricted Stock Award agreement. The terms and conditions of each such agreement shall be determined by the Committee, and such terms and conditions may differ among individual Awards and participants.

 

(b) Rights as a Stockholder . Upon execution of a written instrument setting forth the Restricted Stock Award and payment of any applicable purchase price, a participant shall have the rights of a stockholder with respect to the voting of the Restricted Stock, subject to such conditions contained in the written instrument evidencing the Restricted Stock Award. Unless the Committee shall otherwise determine, certificates evidencing the Restricted Stock shall remain in the possession of the Company until such Restricted Stock is vested as provided in subsection (d) below of this Section, and the participant shall be required, as a condition of the grant, to deliver to the Company a stock power endorsed in blank.

 

(c) Restrictions . Restricted Stock may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered or disposed of except as specifically provided herein or in the Restricted Stock Award agreement. If a participant’s employment (or other business relationship) with the Company and its Subsidiaries terminates under the conditions specified in the relevant instrument relating to the Award, or upon such other event or events as may be stated in the instrument evidencing the Award, the Company or its assigns shall have the right or shall agree, as may be specified in the relevant instrument, to repurchase some or all of the shares of Stock subject to the Award at such purchase price as is set forth in such instrument.

 

(d) Vesting of Restricted Stock . The Committee at the time of grant shall specify the date or dates and/or the attainment of pre-established performance goals, objectives and other conditions on which Restricted Stock shall become vested, subject to such further rights of the Company or its assigns as may be specified in the instrument evidencing the Restricted Stock Award.

 

9  
 

 

(e) Waiver, Deferral and Reinvestment of Dividends . The Restricted Stock Award agreement may require or permit the immediate payment, waiver, deferral or investment of dividends paid on the Restricted Stock.

 

SECTION 7 UNRESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS

 

(a) Grant or Sale of Unrestricted Stock . The Committee may, in its sole discretion, grant (or sell at par value or such higher purchase price determined by the Committee) an Unrestricted Stock Award to any participant, pursuant to which such participant may receive shares of Stock free of any vesting restrictions (“Unrestricted Stock”) under the Plan. Unrestricted Stock Awards may be granted or sold as described in the preceding sentence in respect of past services or other valid consideration, or in lieu of any cash compensation due to such individual.

 

(b) Elections to Receive Unrestricted Stock In Lieu of Compensation . Upon the request of a participant and with the consent of the Committee, each such participant may, pursuant to an advance written election delivered to the Company no later than the date specified by the Committee, receive a portion of the cash compensation otherwise due to such participant in the form of shares of Unrestricted Stock either currently or on a deferred basis.

 

(c) Restrictions on Transfers . The right to receive shares of Unrestricted Stock on a deferred basis may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

 

SECTION 8 TAX WITHHOLDING

 

(a) Payment by Participant . Each participant shall, no later than the date as of which the value of an Award or of any Stock or other amounts received thereunder first becomes includable in the gross income of the participant for Federal income tax purposes, pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Committee regarding payment of, any federal, state, or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to such income. The Company and its Subsidiaries shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the participant.

 

(b) Payment in Stock . Subject to approval by the Committee, a participant may elect to have the minimum required tax withholding obligation satisfied, in whole or in part, by (i) authorizing the Company to withhold from shares of Stock to be issued pursuant to any Award a number of shares with an aggregate Fair Market Value (as of the date the withholding is effected) that would satisfy the withholding amount due, or (ii) transferring to the Company shares of Stock owned by the participant with an aggregate Fair Market Value (as of the date the withholding is effected) that would satisfy the withholding amount due.

 

10  
 

 

SECTION 9 TRANSFER, LEAVE OF ABSENCE, ETC .

 

For purposes of the Plan, the following events shall not be deemed a termination of the employment of a Plan participant by the Company or its Subsidiaries and Affiliates:

 

(a) a transfer of employment to the Company from a Subsidiary or Affiliate, or a transfer of employment to a Subsidiary or Affiliate from the Company, or a transfer of employment from one Subsidiary or Affiliate to another; or

 

(b) an approved leave of absence for military service or sickness, or for any other purpose approved by (as applicable) the Company or its Subsidiary or Affiliate, if the employee’s right to re-employment is guaranteed either by a statute or by contract or under the policy pursuant to which the leave of absence was granted or if the Committee otherwise so provides in writing.

 

SECTION 10 AMENDMENTS AND TERMINATION

 

The Board may, at any time, amend or discontinue the Plan and the Committee may, at any time, amend or cancel any outstanding Award (or provide substitute Awards at the same or reduced exercise or purchase price or with no exercise or purchase price in a manner not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan), but such price, if any, must satisfy the requirements which would apply to the substitute or amended Award if it were then initially granted under this Plan for the purpose of satisfying changes in law or for any other lawful purpose, but no such action shall adversely affect rights under any outstanding Award without the holder’s consent. If and to the extent determined by the Committee to be required by the Code to ensure that Incentive Stock Options granted under the Plan are qualified under Section 422 of the Code, Plan amendments shall be subject to approval by the Company’s stockholders who are eligible to vote at a meeting of stockholders. Nothing in this Section 10 shall limit the Board’s or Committee’s authority to take any action permitted pursuant to Section 3(c).

 

SECTION 11 STATUS OF PLAN

 

With respect to the portion of any Award that has not been exercised and any payments in cash, Stock or other consideration not received by a participant, a participant shall have no rights greater than those of a general creditor of the Company unless the Committee shall otherwise expressly determine in connection with any Award or Awards. In its sole discretion, the Committee may authorize the creation of trusts or other arrangements to meet the Company’s obligations to deliver Stock or make payments with respect to Awards hereunder, provided that the existence of such trusts or other arrangements is consistent with the foregoing sentence.

 

11  
 

 

SECTION 12 GENERAL PROVISIONS

 

(a) No Distribution; Compliance with Legal Requirements . The Committee may require each person acquiring Stock pursuant to an Award to represent to and agree with the Company in writing that such person is acquiring the shares without a view to distribution thereof. No shares of Stock shall be issued pursuant to an Award until all applicable securities law and other legal and stock exchange or similar requirements have been satisfied. The Committee may require the placing of such stop-orders and restrictive legends on certificates for Stock and Awards as it deems appropriate.

 

(b) Delivery of Stock Certificates . Stock certificates to participants under this Plan shall be deemed delivered for all purposes when the Company or a stock transfer agent of the Company shall have mailed such certificates in the United States mail, addressed to the participant, at the participant’s last known address on file with the Company.

 

(c) Other Compensation Arrangements; No Employment Rights . Nothing contained in this Plan shall prevent the Board from adopting other or additional compensation arrangements, including trusts, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases. The adoption of this Plan and the grant of Awards do not confer upon any employee any right to continued employment with the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate.

 

(d) Trading Policy Restrictions . Option exercises and other Awards under the Plan shall be subject to such Company’s insider-trading-policy-related restrictions, terms and conditions as may be established by the Committee, or in accordance with policies set by the Committee, from time to time.

 

(e) Loans to Award Recipients . The Company shall have the authority to make loans to recipients of Awards hereunder (including to facilitate the purchase of shares) and shall further have the authority to issue shares for promissory notes hereunder.

 

SECTION 13 EFFECTIVE DATE OF PLAN

 

This Plan shall become effective upon its adoption by the Board and, thereafter, the Stock Options and other Awards may be granted hereunder; provided, however, that no Stock may be issued hereunder prior to the approval of the Plan by the holders of a majority of the votes cast at a meeting of stockholders at which a quorum is present or by written consent in accordance with applicable law.

 

SECTION 14 GOVERNING LAW

 

This Plan and all Awards and actions taken thereunder shall be governed by Nevada law, applied without regard to conflict of law principles.
