ITEM 1. BUSINESS

 

Company History and Overview

 

History of Edge Data Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation

 

EDGE DATA SOLUTIONS, INC. (the “Company”), formerly Blockchain Holdings Capital Ventures, Inc. (formerly Southeastern Holdings, Inc., formerly Safe Lane Systems, Inc.) was incorporated in the State of Colorado on September 10, 2013. Safe Lane Systems, Inc. redomiciled to become a Delaware holding corporation in September of 2016. On September 22, 2016, Safe Lane Systems, Inc. formed two wholly owned subsidiaries, SLS Industrial, Inc and Southeastern Holdings, Inc. (both Delaware corporations) and on September 30, 2016 completed a merger and reorganization in which Southeastern Holdings, Inc. (now Edge Data Solutions, Inc.) became the holding company. On December 1, 2016, the Company spun off its wholly owned subsidiary, SLS Industrial, Inc., along with its assets and liabilities, leaving Southeastern Holdings, Inc. as the only surviving entity.

 

On August 23, 2018, the Company entered into a Bill of Sale and Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Blockchain Holdings, LLC (“BH LLC”) pursuant to which the Company purchased all of the assets of BH LLC which are used in the business of sourcing of blockchain mining equipment from various suppliers for their customers and also providing management of the equipment hosted, mining pools and tech work on such equipment. The Company issued 300,000,000 shares of its common stock, par value $.0001 valued at $300,000 to the members of Blockchain in exchange for the assets of Blockchain.

 

The Company accounted for this transaction as a reverse recapitalization under ASC 805, under which the operating entity, Blockchain Holdings, LLC, adopted the assets, liabilities and equity structure of Edge Data Solutions, Inc. on August 23, 2018, while retaining its historical activity. The financial statements therefore present activity beginning with Blockchain Holdings, LLC’s inception date of February 5, 2018 through September 30, 2018.

 

On August 30, 2018 the Company changed its name to Blockchain Holdings Capital Ventures, Inc.

 

On January 13, 2020, the Company changed its name to Edge Data Solutions, Inc.

 

Edge Data Solutions, Inc believes it is poised to be an industry-leading infrastructure provider. In an increasingly data-driven world, GPU computing is changing the way we create, learn, and play. Through strategic partners, the Company has assembled a full-stack solution to help businesses realize the potential of CPU/GPU computing, backed by a rapidly growing network of high-density modular data centers that place compute directly at the point of data collection, reducing latency, improving performance and security.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. However, the above conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to do so. New business opportunities may never emerge, and we may not be able to sufficiently fund the pursuit of new business opportunities should they arise.

 

As of December 31, 2021, we had approximately $831,209 in cash on hand. Our current monthly operating cash requirement is approximately $170,000, and it is expected that rate will continue and will increase as we execute on our business plan. There can be no assurances that our operations will generate sufficient revenues, profits and cash to cover operating costs.

General

 

EDGE DATA SOLUTIONS, INC. (the “Company”), formerly Blockchain Holdings Capital Ventures, Inc. (formerly Southeastern Holdings, Inc., formerly Safe Lane Systems, Inc.) was incorporated in the State of Colorado on September 10, 2013. Safe Lane Systems, Inc. redomiciled to become a Delaware holding corporation in September of 2016. On September 22, 2016, Safe Lane Systems, Inc. formed two wholly owned subsidiaries, SLS Industrial, Inc and Southeastern Holdings, Inc. (both Delaware corporations) and on September 30, 2016 completed a merger and reorganization in which Southeastern Holdings, Inc. (now Edge Data Solutions, Inc.) became the holding company. On December 1, 2016, the Company spun off its wholly owned subsidiary, SLS Industrial, Inc., along with its assets and liabilities, leaving Southeastern Holdings, Inc. as the only surviving entity.

 

On August 23, 2018, the Company entered into a Bill of Sale and Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Blockchain Holdings, LLC (“Blockchain”), pursuant to which the Company purchased all of the assets of Blockchain which are used in the business of sourcing of blockchain mining equipment from various suppliers for their customers and also providing management of the equipment hosted, mining pools and tech work on such equipment. The Company issued 300,000,000 (equivalent to 3,000,000 after the reverse split) shares of its common stock, par value $.0001 to the members of Blockchain in exchange for the assets of Blockchain.

 

On August 30, 2018 the Company changed its name to Blockchain Holdings Capital Ventures, Inc.

 

On January 13, 2020, the Company changed its name to Edge Data Solutions, Inc.

 

Edge Data Solutions, Inc. (EDSI) believes it is poised to be an industry-leading edge data center and cloud infrastructure provider. EDSI’s proprietary Edge Performance Platform (EPP) allows us to deploy next-generation edge data centers where they are needed most. EDSI’s data centers provide next-generation immersion Cooling technology that improves performance, reduces energy costs and latency. Key industries we believe we can serve more computing power to include fintech, cloud gaming, telecom 5G, 3D/video/AI rendering, video streaming, remote desktop, IoT, autonomous vehicles. Centralized infrastructure facilities servicing multiple geographical areas encounter many issues with data latency, congestion and weak network connections. To address this, data processing is moving closer to the customer. EDSI offers green, low-cost, secure colocation and private data hosting to meet this demand for Edge data centers. EDSI plans to deploy to strategic locations based on demand for Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities outside the major metropolitans to underserved markets, supporting both edge customers and areas of projected growth. With the rise and proliferation of this technology adoption we plan to solidify our footprint by securing multiple locations across the US, while generating revenue from our operations. The modular design and ability to add additional data centers as needed, preserves up front capital allowing for rapid deployment and scalability as business demand increases.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. However, certain conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to do so. New business opportunities may never emerge, and we may not be able to sufficiently fund the pursuit of new business opportunities should they arise.

 

As of December 31, 2021, we had $831,209 in cash on hand. Our current monthly cash requirement for basic operations is approximately $175,000, and the Company anticipates it will require significant additional sales or capital to fully execute our business plan. We are currently dependent on the successful generation of sufficiently profitable sales and on necessary capital to continue to operate. While we have generated sales, there can be no guarantee that we will continue to generate sales, generate sufficient cash or raise sufficient capital to continue to fund operations.

 

PLAN OF OPERATIONS

 

During 2021, we commenced sales of our Edge Performance Platform, including data center infrastructure, equipment and services, and have continued to generate these sales. There can be no assurances that these sales will continue or that customers will execute upon their commitments to purchase our solutions. EDSI’s business is young and may also be adversely affected by issues with product, supply chain challenges, operational issues, and competition.

 

We are currently seeking to grow our customer base and to increase our current customers’ reliance on and usage of our resources. Further, we are seeking to expand into the sale and resale of modular data centers and related infrastructure and equipment. While our efforts have generated limited revenue and gross profit, there can be no assurances that these efforts will be successful or produce sufficient income or cash inflows from operations. As a result, we are dependent upon additional sales that generate sufficient profit and may require additional capital from investors to finance our operations and continue as a going concern.

Our goals for the next year are as follows:

 

Significantly grow sales through our current partnerships and customer relationships
Enhance the profitability of current data center sales
Develop new products and services
Establish strategic revenue-generating partnerships

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

 

In 2021, management entered informal agreements to co-fund 50% of the capital expenditures, including equipment, leasehold improvements and other similar costs, for immersion-cooled data center test sites with one of its customers. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had not yet expended its portion of the cash and thus excluded its share of costs from the investments section of the balance sheet. In February 2022, the Company remitted $54,575, representing 50% of $109,950 in leasehold improvements, electrical and mechanical costs, to the entity that controls the property.

 

Management has not identified any other material off balance sheet arrangements.

Results of Operations for the Years Ended December 31, 2021 and 2020

 

During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company generated total net revenues of 1,566,617 and $34,670 and incurred associated costs of $1,207,151 and $24,092, for gross profit of $359,466 and $10,578, all respectively, representing increases of $1,531,947 (4,419%), $1,183,059 (4,911%) and $348,888 (3,299%), all respectively, due to new sales of its Edge Performance Platform solutions in 2021. While the Company generated revenue in 2021, the customer base is heavily concentrated, volume is limited, and there can be no guarantee of future revenues or growth.

 

During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company incurred $64,072 and $1,059, respectively, of sales and marketing expenses and $587,947 and $221,942, respectively, of general and administrative costs, including consulting fees, professional services fees and other administrative costs. Sales and marketing costs increased by $63,013, or 5,950%, as a result of commissions paid. General and administrative costs increased by $366,005, or 165%, primarily due to executive bonuses.

 

During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company incurred depreciation expense of $28,396 and $17,519, respectively, with the increase being a result of ongoing depreciation on equipment purchased in prior periods.

 

During 2021 and 2020, the Company recognized $159,220 and $381,900 of stock-based compensation expense, respectively, from the issuance of its common shares to executives, consultants, and advisors. The Company also paid total compensation of $359,145 to the CEO and $280,000 to its President in 2020, as compared to $90,000 and $84,040, respectively in 2020, for increases of $269,145 and $195,960, respectively.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company recognized $122,732 of interest expense, as compared to $66,135 for the year ended December 31, 2020. The increase of $56,597 or 86%, is primarily attributable to the accrual of interest on significant new convertible debt issuances in 2020 and also includes interest charges incurred by related parties who paid expenses on behalf of the Company.

 

Aside from interest expense, during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company recognized net other income of $12,971 and $1,081, respectively, for an increase of $11,890 or 1,100%. The change was driven by cryptocurrency mining and selling activities and impairment losses during 2021.

 

As a result, the Company incurred net operating losses of $929,075 and $850,936 for years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, for an increase of $78,139, or 9%, to net losses. This change was primarily a result of increased stock-based compensation and increases in executive compensation, offset by new sales.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

In January 2020, the Company issued 627,862 equity units, each consisting of three-year warrant to purchase two shares of the Company’s common stock for $0.50 each and one share of the Company’s common stock, to two individuals in exchange for conversion of $100,000 of convertible notes and $6,966 of accrued interest and an additional $50,000 of cash.

 

In February 2020, the Company issued two one-year convertible notes for total proceeds of $110,000, each bearing interest at 10% annually and calling for conversion at a 30% discount in the event of a financing event exceeding $1,000,000.

 

In April 2020, the Company issued three one-year convertible notes for total proceeds of $150,000, bearing interest at rates ranging from 10-12% per annum and calling for conversion at a 30% discount in the event of a financing event exceeding $1,000,000.

 

In June 2020, the Company issued a one-year convertible note for total proceeds of $50,000, bearing interest at 12% per annum and calling for conversion at a 30% discount in the event of a financing event exceeding $1,000,000.

 

In July 2020, the Company issued a one-year convertible note for total proceeds of $25,000, bearing interest at 10% per annum and calling for conversion at a 30% discount in the event of a financing event exceeding $1,000,000.

 

In August 2020, the Company issued three one-year convertible notes for total proceeds of $175,000, each bearing interest at 10% per annum and calling for conversion at a 30% discount in the event of a financing event exceeding $1,000,000.

 

In December 2020, the Company issued five one-year convertible notes for total proceeds of $110,000, each bearing interest at 15% per annum and calling for conversion at a 30% discount in the event of a financing event exceeding $1,000,000.

 

As discussed in Note 7 to the financial statements, the Company defaulted on $749,500 of these notes, as amended. In February 2022, the Company cured the default on $649,500 of convertible debt and associated accrued interest through (a) repayment of a $100,000 note and (b) conversion of $549,500 of convertible notes. As of the date of this filing, management is negotiating an extension on the remaining $100,000 of convertible debt.

 

During the twelve months ending December 31, 2022, the Company estimates it will need approximately $3,400,000 to continue to implement its business plan and operations. The Company currently generates revenues from its data center offerings. However, there can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in its efforts to generate enough sufficiently profitable sales and growth to continue current operations and to fully implement its business plan. Other than the foregoing, the Company is not currently aware of any significant trends, events or uncertainties that have had, or are reasonably expected to have, a material impact on sales or income from continuing operations, or liquidity and capital resources.

 

14
 

 

Short Term

 

On a short-term basis, we anticipate continued generation of data center infrastructure and equipment revenues. Based on prior history, we anticipate that short-term sales may be insufficient to satisfy current and future liabilities as we continue to pursue expansion of our current customer base and product and service offerings.

 

No commitments to provide additional funds have been made by our management or other stockholders. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that any additional funds will be available to us to allow it to cover our expenses as they may be incurred, in the event that profits are insufficient to fund operations.

 

Capital Resources

 

Our capital resources currently consist of cash, convertible debt financing, and the sale of equity subscriptions.

 

Need for Additional Financing

 

While we have sufficient capital to meet our near-term obligations, there can be no assurances that we will generate sufficient revenues and profits to fund operations. Our capital is currently insufficient to fully execute upon our business plan. We plan to seek debt or equity financing to cover such cash needs, which we anticipate will significantly increase to execute on the business plan.

 

Within the next twelve months, we will need to generate profits of or raise an additional $1 million in financing to continue operations. To fully execute upon our business plan, we estimate that we will need approximately $10 million to fully execute on our business plan.

 

No commitments have been made to provide additional funding by our management or other stockholders. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that any additional funds will be available to us to allow it to cover our expenses as they may be incurred.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

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

 

15
 

 

Impairment of Long-life Assets

 

In accordance with ASC Topic 360, the Company reviews its long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of the assets may not be fully recoverable. If the total of the expected undiscounted future net cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the difference between the fair value and carrying amount of the asset.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect 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.

 

Income Tax

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Under ASC 740, deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss carry-forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

 

Fiscal year

 

The Company employs a fiscal year ending December 31.

 

Net Income (Loss) per share

 

The net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common outstanding. Warrants, stock warrants, and common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Company’s preferred stock (if any), are not included in the computation if the effect would be anti-dilutive and would increase the earnings or decrease loss per share.

 

Financial Instruments

 

The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, as reported in the accompanying balance sheet, are stated at fair value.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company adopted the provisions of and accounts for stock-based compensation using an estimate of value in accordance with the fair value method. Under the fair value recognition provisions of this statement, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which generally is the vesting period. The Company elected the modified-prospective method, under which prior periods are not revised for comparative purposes. The valuation method applies to new grants and to grants that were outstanding as of the effective date and are subsequently modified.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying amount of accounts payable is considered to be representative of respective fair values because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue under ASC 606, using the following five-step model, which requires that the Company: (1) identify a contract with the customer, (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations and (5) recognize revenue as performance obligations are satisfied. The Company’s current and anticipated revenue streams consist of:

 

  1. Data center infrastructure and equipment sales – The Company resells immersion-cooled data center products, equipment and project management services.
  2. Computing – The Company owns and operates high performance servers to provide hardware acceleration for rendering farms to process 3D and video rendering and gaming. In addition, these multi-purpose servers produce revenue from mining when the servers are not processing other jobs to ensure zero idle time and have the ability to run AI and HPC processing as well.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Edge Data Solutions, Inc.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Edge Data Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficiency and cash flows for the years ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Explanatory Paragraph – Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses since inception and has a working capital deficiency both of which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

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

 

INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF ACCOUNTANTS AND AUDITORS

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

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

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As of December 31, 2021 and 2020 and for the Years then Ended

 

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The Company maintains the calendar year as its basis of reporting.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures 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.

 

Cash Equivalents and Concentration of Cash Balance

 

The Company considers all highly liquid securities with an original maturity of less than three months to be cash equivalents. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit accounts, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company’s cash balances exceeded insurance limits by $581,209 and $0, respectively.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Right of Use Assets and Lease Liabilities

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The standard requires lessees to recognize almost all leases on the balance sheet as a Right-of-Use (“ROU”) asset and a lease liability and requires leases to be classified as either an operating or a finance type lease. The standard excludes leases of intangible assets or inventory. The standard became effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2019. Since the Company had no leases in place prior to or during 2019, the Company has adopted ASC 842 prospectively and has applied it to its first lease agreement in 2020.

 

Under ASC 842, the Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term. For this purpose, the Company considers only payments that are fixed and determinable at the time of commencement. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company estimated the incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. The ROU asset also includes any lease payments made prior to commencement and is recorded net of any lease incentives received. The Company’ lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise such options.

 

Inventory

 

The Company values inventory at its original cost, adjusted to approximate the lower of actual cost or estimated net realizable value using assumptions about future demand and market conditions. In determining excess or obsolescence reserves for its products, the Company considers assumptions such as changes in business and economic conditions, other-than-temporary decreases in demand for its products, and changes in technology or customer requirements. In determining the lower of cost or net realizable value reserves, the Company considers assumptions such as recent historical sales activity and selling prices, as well as estimates of future selling prices. The Company fully reserves for inventories and non-cancellable purchase orders for inventory deemed obsolete. The Company performs periodic reviews of inventory items to identify excess inventories on hand by comparing on-hand balances and non-cancellable purchase orders to anticipated usage using recent historical activity as well as anticipated or forecasted demand. If estimates of customer demand diminish further or market conditions become less favorable than those projected by the Company, additional inventory carrying value adjustments may be required.

 

As of December 31, 2021, the Company’s had $11,530 of inventory and had outstanding deposits of $2,161,683 with vendors for the purchase of equipment for resale to customers. As of December 31, 2021, these deposits consist of:

 

$34,000 of equipment in transit and not yet delivered
$2,127,683 of equipment in production and not yet shipped or delivered to customers

 

As of December 31, 2021, remaining costs of in-production equipment not yet shipped totaled $3,951,547. Terms with the Company’s vendors call for full payment prior to shipment when equipment is ready for delivery.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost net of accumulated depreciation and amortization, and accumulated impairment, if any. Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives, which are all currently estimated at three years.

 

As of December 31, 2021, the Company’s property and equipment consisted of $84,133 of servers and other computing equipment, net of $16,641 of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation expense for year ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 was $28,396 and $17,519, respectively.

 

Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances have indicated that an asset may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets are grouped with other assets at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets and liabilities. If the sum of the projected undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value of the assets, the assets are written down to the estimated fair value. As of December 31, 2021, the Company determined that its long-lived assets have not been impaired.

 

Deferred Offering Costs

 

The Company accumulates costs incurred directly in connection with its unclosed securities offering, as announced on October 13, 2020, as deferred offering costs. In the event the offering is successful, the Company will record all related costs as an offset to additional paid-in capital. In the even the Company terminates the offering or management deems the offering will not likely be successful, the Company will charge these costs to expense in the period in which such a determination is made. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company incurred $21,000 of costs related to this offering. In March 2021, the Company terminated the offering and wrote off the $21,000 of deferred offering costs to general and administrative expense in 2020.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) guidance specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect market assumptions. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

 

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments whose value is based on quoted market prices such as exchange-traded instruments and listed equities.

 

Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly (e.g., quoted prices of similar assets or liabilities inactive markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active).

 

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Financial instruments are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flows or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.

 

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets approximate their fair value.

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue under ASC 606, using the following five-step model, which requires that the Company: (1) identify a contract with the customer, (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations and (5) recognize revenue as performance obligations are satisfied. The Company’s current and anticipated revenue streams consist of:

 

  1.

Data center infrastructure and equipment sales – The Company resells immersion-cooled data center products, equipment and project management services. Performance obligations include:

     
    Delivery of physical products
   

Provision of any agreed-upon project management and other services

    Conclusion of defined period for any support services
       
  2. Computing – The Company owns and operates high performance servers to provide hardware acceleration for rendering farms to process 3D and video rendering and gaming. In addition, these multi-purpose servers produce revenue from mining when the servers are not processing other jobs to ensure zero idle time and have the ability to run AI and HPC processing as well. The Company’s performance obligation with respect to computing revenue is the provision of specified computing services to the client.

 

During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company recognized $29,557 and $34,670 of revenue from its customers’ usage of computing credits, with associated costs of $46,525 and 24,092, all respectively. The Company further recognized a deferred revenue liability of $9,478 and $1,035, respectively for prepaid usage credits not yet used by its customers as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

 

As of December 31, 2021, the Company recognized $3,197,990 in deposits representing cash paid by customers for data center infrastructure products to be delivered in subsequent periods and had corresponding deposits with vendors of $2,161,683 for product to be delivered.

 

Crypto Assets Held

 

The crypto assets held by the Company are accounted for as intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and are initially measured at cost. Crypto assets accounted for as intangible assets are not amortized, but assessed for impairment annually, or more frequently, when events or changes in circumstances occur indicating that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived asset is impaired. Impairment exists when the carrying amount exceeds its fair value, which is measured using the quoted price of the crypto asset at the time its fair value is being measured. Impairment expense is reflected in other operating expense in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company assigns costs to transactions on a first-in, first-out basis.

 

As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the carrying value of crypto assets held by the Company was $3,940 and $1,197, respectively.

 

Cryptocurrency Income

 

The Company records cryptocurrency generated, net of fees and valuation adjustments, as other income and classifies the cryptocurrency as crypto assets held at cost in its balance sheets. When the company sells its cryptocurrencies, it recognizes a gain or loss for the difference between original cost and the selling price, net of fees.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recognized $4,847 of cryptocurrency mining income, and gains of $1,018 on the sale of cryptocurrency.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company recognized $16,972 of cryptocurrency mining income, losses of $2,807 on the sale of cryptocurrency and an impairment loss of $1,194 on cryptocurrencies held due to fair market value falling below original cost.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for share-based payments pursuant to ASC 718, “Stock Compensation” and, accordingly, the Company records compensation expense for share-based awards based upon an assessment of the grant date fair value for stock options and restricted stock awards using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

 

Stock compensation expense for stock options is recognized over the vesting period of the award or expensed immediately when stock or options are awarded for previous or current service without further recourse.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company is subject to taxation in various jurisdictions and may be subject to examination by various authorities.

 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets, including tax loss and credit carryforwards, and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred income tax expense represents the change during the period in the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities. The components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are individually classified as current and non-current based on their characteristics. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

The Company recognizes the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year and recognizes deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events and transactions that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards could have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements. As new accounting pronouncements are issued, we will adopt those that are applicable under the circumstances.

NOTE 3: GOING CONCERN

 

As shown in the accompanying financial statements as of December 31, 2021, the Company had $831,209 of cash and $3,030,970 of current assets, as compared to total current liabilities of $4,624,792, has incurred substantial operating losses, and had an accumulated deficit of $2,339,709. Furthermore, the Company’s revenue history is limited, and there can be no assurances of future revenues or sufficient profits to fund operations.

 

Given these factors, the Company may require financing from outside parties, and management intends to pursue outside capital through debt and equity vehicles. There is no assurance that these efforts will materialize or be successful or sufficient to fund operations and meet obligations as they come due.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, however, the above conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

NOTE 4: STOCKHOLDERS’ DEFICIENCY

 

The Company has designated ten million (10,000,000) shares of its preferred stock, par value $0.001 as Class A Preferred Super Majority Voting Stock (“Class A”). The Class A shares have the right to vote upon matters submitted to the holders of common stock, par value $0.0001 of the Company. Class A shares have a vote equal to the number of shares of common stock of the Company which would give the holders of the Class A shares a vote equal to sixty percent (60%) of the common stock. This vote shall be exercised pro-rata by the holders of the Class A. The Company shall have the right to redeem, in its sole and absolute discretion, at any time one (1) year after the date of issuance of such Class A shares, all or any portion of the shares of Class A at a price of one cent ($0.01) per share. On October 4, 2018, the Company issued a total of 7,000,000 Class A shares to its CEO and President (formerly COO) as stock-based compensation for services rendered.

 

The Company has not currently authorized a Class B designation of Preferred Stock.

 

The Company has designated ten million (10,000,000) shares of its preferred stock, par value $0.001 as Class C Convertible Preferred Non-Voting Stock (“Class C”). Each share of Class C shall be convertible into one (1) shares of common stock. The holders of Class C shall be entitled to receive the same dividend as the holders of the common stock and such dividend shall be paid pro rata per share on a fully converted basis. The holders of Class C shall have piggyback registration rights. The Company shall have the right to redeem, in its sole and absolute discretion, at any time after five (5) years, all or any portion of the shares of Class C at a price of five dollars ($5.00) per share. The Class C shares shall be considered to have a junior liquidation preference to Class A shares and a senior dividend preference to Class A shares. On October 4, 2018, the Company issued a total of 7,000,000 Class C shares to its CEO and President (formerly COO) as stock-based compensation for services rendered. Subsequently, in April 2019, the Company filed an amended and restated certificate of designation, which restricts the CEO and President from converting the 7,000,000 shares into common stock for 36 months from the issuance date.

The Company did not have consulting or employment agreements with these individuals or their entities, and as a result, these fees fluctuated from time to time.

NOTE 7: CONVERTIBLE NOTES

 

In November 2019, the Company issued a convertible note for $100,000. This note matured one year from execution and accrued interest at a rate of 10% per annum. Conversion terms call for conversion of principal and accrued interest at 70% of the stock price upon closing any offering resulting in aggregate financing of at least $1,000,000. On February 2, 2021, the parties amended the convertible note, resulting in (a) interest accruing at 15% per annum and (b) extended maturity through February 2022. As amended, conversion terms called for conversion to common stock at $0.35 per share at the Holder’s option, or in the event of an equity offering of at least $1 million in aggregate at the lesser of (a) 70% of the offering price, (b) $0.50 per share.

 

In January 2020, two individuals converted a total of $100,000 of outstanding principal and $6,966 of accrued interest into 427,862 equity units, each consisting of one common share and a three-year warrant to purchase two shares of common stock at $0.50 per share, in connection with additional subscriptions totaling $50,000 to purchase 200,000 of these equity units.

 

In February 2020, the Company issued two short-term convertible notes for total proceeds of $110,000. These notes mature one year from execution and accrue interest at a rate of 10% per annum. Conversion terms originally called for conversion of principal and accrued interest at 70% of the stock price upon closing any offering resulting in aggregate financing of at least $1,000,000. On September 14, 2021, the parties amended one of these convertible notes having original principal of $100,000, resulting in (a) the reclassification of $10,000 of accrued interest to principal, (b) the accrual of 15% interest on the amended principal of $110,000, and (c) a new maturity date of December 31, 2021. Terms of the Amended and Restated Convertible Note called for conversion upon closing of any aggregated equity offering of at least $1 million at the lesser of (a) $0.35 per share or (b) 80% of the price per common share of the offering.

 

In April 2020, the Company issued three short-term convertible notes for total proceeds of $150,000.

In June 2020, the Company issued another short-term convertible note for total proceeds of $50,000. This note matures one year from execution and accrues interest at 12% per annum. Conversion terms call for conversion of principal and accrued interest at 70% of the stock price upon closing any offering resulting in aggregate financing of at least $1,000,000. On September 3, 2021, the parties amended the note, resulting in (a) the reclassification of $6,000 of accrued interest to principal, (b) the accrual of 15% interest on the amended principal of $56,000, and (c) a new maturity date of December 31, 2021. Terms of the Amended and Restated Convertible Note called for conversion upon closing of any aggregated equity offering of at least $1 million at the lesser of (a) $0.35 per share or (b) 80% of the price per common share of the offering.

Conversion terms call for conversion of principal and accrued interest at 85% of the stock price upon closing any offering resulting in aggregate financing of at least $1,000,000. On February 4, 2021, the parties amended the convertible note, resulting in (a) interest accruing at 15% per annum and (b) extended maturity through August 2021. As amended, conversion terms called for conversion to common stock at $0.35 per share at the Holder’s option, or in the event of an equity offering of at least $1 million in aggregate at the lesser of (a) 70% of the offering price, (b) $0.50 per share.

 

In August 2020, the Company issued two short-term convertible notes totaling $75,000. The notes mature one year from execution and accrue interest at 10% per annum. Conversion terms call for conversion of principal and accrued interest at the lesser of (i) 70% of the stock price or (ii) $0.50 per share, upon closing any offering resulting in aggregate financing of at least $1,000,000.

In December 2020, the Company issued five short-term convertible notes totaling $110,000. The notes mature one year from execution and accrue interest at 15% per annum. Conversion terms call for conversion of principal and accrued interest at the lesser of (i) 70% of the stock price or (ii) $0.50 per share, upon closing any offering resulting in aggregate financing of at least $1,000,000.

 

During the year ended 2021, the Company determined that all notes were in default and accrued default interest at 15% per annum while it worked with the noteholders to address the defaults.

 

The Company evaluated the convertible notes in light of ASC 470 and determined that a beneficial conversion feature exists, due to the fixed discount on conversion established in the notes. However, given the contingent nature and lack of a market for the Company’s stock and no imminent conversion events, the Company concluded that such a feature would be trivial in value and allocated the full principal amount to the convertible note liability.

 

Furthermore, the Company evaluated whether the features in these notes constitute embedded derivatives and should therefore be accounted for under ASC 815 – Derivatives and Hedging and has determined that there are no embedded derivatives.

 

During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company recognized $105,651 and $43,437 of interest expense on convertible debt, respectively. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, accrued interest on convertible debt was $149,389 and $43,737, net of converted interest of $0 and $6,966 during the years then ended, respectively.

 

As of December 31, 2021, the Company was in default on $345,000 of its convertible notes, and subsequently, the Company was in default on the remaining $404,500 notes, as amended. As further discussed below, the Company cured the default on (a) a $100,000 convertible note by repaying outstanding balances in full on February 15, 2022 and (b) $549,500 of convertible notes through conversion on February 28, 2022. As of the date of this filing, the Company is currently negotiating extended terms with the Holder of the remaining $100,000 note in default.

 

Subsequently, on February 15, 2022, the Company repaid the entire outstanding balance of $118,725 on a convertible note, consisting of $100,000 original principal and $18,725 of accrued interest.

 

On February 28, 2022, convertible debtholders converted a total of $624,752, consisting of $549,500 of amended principal and $75,252 of accrued interest, into 1,824,751 equity units at a rate of $0.35 per unit. Each unit consists of one (1) share of Common Stock and one (1) Class B Warrant. Holders of Class B Warrants are entitled to purchase one (1) share of Common Stock at a strike price of $1.00 within three years of the issuance date.

NOTE 8: INCOME TAX

 

The Company recorded no deferred income tax provision or benefit for the years ended December 31, 2021 or 2020, because the Company believes it is more likely than not that net operating loss carryforwards will not be utilized in the near future due to net losses. The Company has generated no taxable income. The income tax provision (benefit) differs from the amount computed by applying the U.S. Federal income tax rate of 21% plus applicable state rates to the loss before income taxes due to the unrecognized benefit resulting from the Company’s valuation allowance, as well as due to nondeductible expenses. The Company’s blended tax rate of 21% currently consists of 21% for U.S. Federal income tax and 0% for Delaware state income taxes. The following tables set forth the Company’s analysis of its deferred tax assets and related valuation allowances:

NOTE 10: SIGNIFICANT AGREEMENTS

 

On January 29, 2020, the Company entered into a master service agreement with Charter Trading Corporation (“Charter”), a Texas company, under which Charter will provide Ballistics materials for hardened Edge Data centers, for use by military contractors.

 

On June 24, 2020, the Company entered into a reseller agreement with Midas Green Technologies, LLC, a Texas-based technology company under which it can purchase and resell data center-related equipment. The Company has not yet realized any financial impacts.

 

On August 31, 2020, the Company engaged CIM Securities, LLC (“CIM”) as a financial advisor and its exclusive lead placement agent for the securities offering announced on October 13, 2020. The agreement called for cash advisory fees of $15,000 and the reimbursement of expenses and up to $5,000 in legal fees, among other fees. The parties terminated the agreement in March 2021.

 

On November 2, 2020, the Company entered into a reseller agreement with Lambda Labs, Inc., a provider of GPU-driven computing equipment and cloud services. The Company has not yet realized any financial impacts from this agreement.

 

On March 17, 2021, the Company entered into a joint marketing agreement with RoviSys Building Technologies, LLC (“RoviSys”), under which it will comarket its mobile and immersion-cooled data center solutions and other related services. The agreement grants a license to RoviSys to market the Company’s products.

 

On December 2, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with a customer, under which EDSI will supply data center equipment and related components, along with optional project management services.

 

The total sale price of $9,074,100 and applicable sales taxes is receivable on the following schedule:

 

  $2,990,564 is due upon execution.
  $2,840,564 plus applicable sales tax, is due 30 days from execution.
  $3,787,418 is due prior to final shipment of the equipment.

 

Delivery commitments under this agreement range from 3-19 weeks from the date of execution, and the agreement provides for penalties paid by Company of $5,000 for each day in the event deliveries are ten or more days late and penalties of $10,000 per day after fifteen days past the estimated delivery date. Certain portions of the equipment have been delivered beyond the original 19-week window due to unforeseen logistics and collections delays, but management anticipates no actual penalties will result.

 

Under this agreement, EDSI warrants that the failure rate for miners in the liquid immersion-cooling system will not materially exceed that of miners in an air-cooled system. In the event that the cause of miner failures within three years of the date of delivery is proximally linked to the liquid immersion cooling systems, EDSI is liable to the Customer for liquidated damages equal to the purchase price less accumulated depreciation to date based on a five-year schedule. Management is currently evaluating estimates and any accounting impacts to future periods of this arrangement.

 

Through the date of this filing, the Company has collected $8,390,308, and the Company anticipates delivery of the equipment will conclude in April 2022.

 

NOTE 11: FINANCE LEASE

 

On March 27, 2020, the Company entered into a 36-month lease for data center equipment. Terms of the lease call for 36 monthly payments of $1,292, with the first payment due at inception, together with a $7,753 security deposit, $3,140 of sales tax and a $500 origination fee, for a total of $12,685 due up front. The Company paid the $12,685 on March 27, 2020.

 

The Company evaluated the lease in light of ASC 842 and determined that it was a long-term finance lease, since (a) the lease term is for the major part of the remaining economic life of the underlying asset and (b) the present value of the sum of lease payments equals or substantially exceeds the fair value of the underlying asset. At lease inception, the Company recognized a right of use asset for $38,895, prepaid tax of $3,140 and a lease liability of $38,895. The Company will ratably amortize the right of use asset and prepaid tax to lease expense over the lease’s life. Based on the present value, term and payment schedule, the Company determined the lease’s implicit rate to be 12.55% and will record interest expense accordingly over the life of the lease.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company paid a total of $15,505, including $12,500 of principal and $3,005 of interest, to the lessor and recognized $10,247 of lease expense for the year ended December 31, 2021.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

An evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report on Form 10-K. Disclosure controls and procedures are procedures designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, such as this Form 10-K, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and is communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that, as of December 31, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

 

Management’s Annual Report On Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f), is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

 

  Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
  Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and
  Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use of disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

 

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021. Based on this assessment, management believes that as of December 31, 2021, our internal control over financial reporting is not effective based on those criteria.

 

Specifically, management’s evaluation identified the following material weaknesses, which existed as of December 31, 2021:

 

  (1) Financial Reporting Systems: We did not maintain a fully integrated financial consolidation and reporting system throughout the period and as a result, extensive manual analysis, reconciliation and adjustments were required in order to produce financial statements for external reporting purposes.
     
  (2) Segregation of Duties: We do not currently have a sufficient complement of technical accounting and external reporting personal commensurate to support standalone external financial reporting under public company or SEC requirements. Specifically, the Company did not effectively segregate certain accounting duties due to the small size of its accounting staff, and maintain a sufficient number of adequately trained personnel necessary to anticipate and identify risks critical to financial reporting and the closing process. In addition, there were inadequate reviews and approvals by the Company’s personnel of certain reconciliations and other processes in day-to-day operations due to the lack of a full complement of accounting staff.

 

We believe that our weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting and our disclosure controls relate in part to the fact that we are a small reporting business with limited personnel. Management and the Board of Directors believe that the Company would need to allocate additional human and financial resources to address these matters, which at this time the Company does not have the financial capability to remediate. Management can give no assurances that it will ever be able to remediate such material weaknesses.

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

During our most recent fiscal quarter, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a- 15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

CONFLICTS OF INTEREST – GENERAL

 

Our directors and officers are, or may become, in their individual capacities, officers, directors, controlling shareholder and/or partners of other entities engaged in a variety of businesses. Thus, there exist potential conflicts of interest including, among other things, time, efforts and corporation opportunity, involved in participation with such other business entities. While the officers and directors of our business are generally engaged full time in our business activities, the amount of time they devote to other business may be up to approximately 10 hours per week.

 

36
 

 

CONFLICTS OF INTEREST – CORPORATE OPPORTUNITIES

 

Certain of our officers and directors may be directors and/or principal stockholders of other companies and, therefore, could face conflicts of interest with respect to potential acquisitions. In addition, our officers and directors may in the future participate in business ventures, which could be deemed to compete directly with us. Additional conflicts of interest and non-arms length transactions may also arise in the future in the event our officers or directors are involved in the management of any firm with which we transact business. Our Board of Directors currently has no policy in place to address such possibilities.

 

Our officers and directors may actively negotiate or otherwise consent to the purchase of a portion of their common stock as a condition to, or in connection with, a proposed merger or acquisition transaction. It is anticipated that a substantial premium over the initial cost of such shares may be paid by the purchaser in conjunction with any sale of shares by our officers and directors which is made as a condition to, or in connection with, a proposed merger or acquisition transaction. The fact that a substantial premium may be paid to our officers and directors to acquire their shares creates a potential conflict of interest for them in satisfying their fiduciary duties to us and our other stockholders. Even though such a sale could result in a substantial profit to them, they would be legally required to make the decision based upon the best interests of us and our other stockholders, rather than their own personal pecuniary benefit.

Any securities not outstanding which are subject to such warrants or conversion privileges are deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage of outstanding securities of the class owned by such person.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

 

Other than the stock transactions discussed above and related party advances and compensation disclosed in the financial statements, we have not entered into any transaction nor are there any proposed transactions in which any founder, director, executive officer, significant shareholder of our Company or any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing had or is to have a direct or indirect material interest.

 

Director Independence

 

Our board of directors undertook its annual review of the independence of the directors and considered whether any director had a material relationship with us or our management that could compromise his ability to exercise independent judgment in carrying out his responsibilities. As a result of this review, the board of directors determined that the directors are not independent, as such term is used under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Delray Wannemacher, as Chief Executive Officer of the Company, Daniel Wong, as President, and Austin Bosarge in his capacity as General Counsel, are not considered to be “independent.”

 

ITEM 14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES

 

GENERAL. TURNER, STONE & COMPANY, L.L.P. (“TURNER, STONE & COMPANY”) is the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.

The Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company confers upon the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors”) the authority to provide for the issuance of shares of preferred stock in classes and to establish the number of shares to be included in each such class and to fix the powers, designations, preferences and rights of the shares of each such class.

On January 7, 2020, the Company changed its name to Edge Data Solutions, Inc.; and

 

On December 17, 2020, the Board of Directors duly adopted the following resolution amending and restating the rights and preferences of Class C Convertible Preferred Stock and incorporates the change of the name of Company as of January 7, 2020, and such resolution has not been modified and is in full force and effect on the date hereof:

 

RESOLVED, that the Company has authorized a class of preferred stock designated as Class C Convertible Preferred Stock and that the number of shares thereof and the powers, preferences and rights of the shares of such series, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, as amended and restated, are as [follows:]

 

1. General.

 

A. Designation and Number. Ten million (10,000,000) shares of the preferred stock, par value $.001 of the Company are hereby designated as “Class C Convertible Preferred Stock” (“Preferred Stock”).

 

B. Ranking. The Preferred Stock shall, with respect to payment of dividends, redemption payments and rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the affairs of the Company, rank:

 

i. Senior and prior to the common stock, par value $0.0001 of the Company (“Common Stock”) and any additional series of preferred stock which may in the future be issued by the Company and are designated in the amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation or the certificate of designation establishing such additional preferred stock as ranking junior to the Preferred Shares. Any shares of the Company’s capital stock which are junior to the Preferred Shares with respect to the payment of dividends are hereinafter referred to as “Junior Dividend Shares” and any shares which are junior to the Preferred Shares with respect to redemption, payment and rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the affairs of the Company are hereinafter referred to as “Junior Liquidation Shares”.

ii. Pari passu with any additional series of preferred stock which may in the future be issued by the Company and are designated in the amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation or the certificate of designation establishing such additional preferred stock as ranking equal to the Preferred Shares or which do not state they are Junior Dividend Shares or Senior Dividend Shares (as defined below). Any shares of the Company’s capital stock which are equal to the Preferred Shares with respect to the payment of dividends are hereinafter referred to as “Parity Dividend Shares” and any shares which are equal to the Preferred Shares with respect to redemption, payment and rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the affairs of the Company are hereinafter referred to as “Parity Liquidation Shares”.

 

iii. Junior to any additional series of preferred stock which may in the future be issued by the Company and are designated in the amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation or the certificate of designation establishing such additional preferred stock as ranking senior to the Preferred Shares. Any shares of the Company’s capital stock which are senior to the Preferred Shares with respect to the payment of dividends are hereinafter referred to as “Senior Dividend Shares” and any shares which are senior to the Preferred Shares with respect to redemption, payment and rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the affairs of the Company are hereinafter referred to as “Senior Liquidation Shares”.

 

2. Dividends. If, and when, the Board of Directors of the Company declares a dividend on the Common Stock, the holders of the Preferred Stock of the Company shall be entitled to receive the same dividend as the holders of the Common Stock. The dividend to be paid to the holders of the Preferred Stock shall be paid pro rata per share on a fully converted basis.

 

3. Rights on Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up.

 

A. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of shares of Preferred Stock then outstanding shall be entitled, on a pro rata basis, to be paid out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to its shareholders, whether from capital, surplus or earnings, $.01 per share of Preferred Stock plus an amount equal to the sum of all accumulated and unpaid dividends through the date fixed for the payment of the distribution on the shares of Preferred Stock, after any payment being made to the holders of shares of Senior Liquidation Shares, including the Class A Preferred Super Majority Voting Stock of the Company and prior to any payment being made to the holders of shares of Junior Liquidation Shares.

 

B. If, upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the assets of the Company available for distribution to its shareholders shall be insufficient to pay the holders of shares of Preferred Stock the full amounts to which they respectively shall be entitled, the holders of shares of Preferred Stock shall share ratably in any distribution of assets in proportion to their respective ownership of Preferred Stock.

 

C. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, after payment shall have been made to the holders of shares of Preferred Stock of the full amount to which they shall be entitled as aforesaid, the holders of shares of Junior Liquidation Shares, to the exclusion of the holders of shares of Preferred Stock, shall be entitled to share on a pro rata basis, according to their respective rights and preferences, in all remaining assets of the Company available for distribution to its shareholders.

 

2

 

 

D. The consolidation or merger of the Company with one or more other entity, or the sale or transfer by the Company of all or substantially all of its assets shall not be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company.

 

4. Voting.

 

A. Except as otherwise set forth in Paragraph “B” of this Article “4” of this Certificate of Designation or as required by law, the holders of shares of Preferred Stock shall not have the right to vote upon matters submitted to the shareholders of the Company or to receive notice of any meeting of the shareholders of the Company.

 

B. The Company shall not, without the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of shares of Preferred Stock representing a majority of the shares of Preferred Stock then outstanding, acting as a separate class:

 

i. in any manner authorize or create any Parity Dividend Shares, Parity Liquidation Shares, Senior Dividend Shares or Senior Liquidation Shares;

 

ii. in any manner alter or change the designations, powers, preferences or rights or the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of the Preferred Stock;

 

iii. authorize the issuance of any other preferred stock with terms which are more advantageous than those set forth herein;

 

iv. agree to any provision in any agreement which would otherwise impose any restriction upon the Company’s ability to honor the exercise of any rights of the holders of the Preferred Stock; or

 

v. agree or otherwise commit to take any of the actions set forth above; provided however, that except as otherwise provided by law, any such vote or consent as set forth in this Paragraph “B” of this Article “4” of this Certificate of Designation shall be sufficient authorization, by the holders of the Preferred Stock, for any such action, and when such action is effected upon such vote or consent, holders of shares of Preferred Stock dissenting from such action shall not have any rights other than the same rights as all holders of the Preferred Stock, including, but not limited to, the right to payment for their shares by reason of this provision.

 

5. Conversion.

 

A. Each share of Preferred Stock shall be convertible into one (1) share of Common Stock.

 

B. Each holder of Preferred Stock shall have the right to convert his, her or its shares of Preferred Stock into fully paid, validly issued and non-assessable shares of Common Stock at any time after the date of issuance of the Preferred Stock (the “Issuance Date”).

 

3

 

 

C. Subject to, and in compliance with the provisions of this Article “5”, if the holder of Preferred Stock has not previously converted his, her of its shares of Preferred Stocks, such shares of Preferred Stock shall without any action on the part of the holder thereof or the Company, be automatically converted into validly issued and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, upon:

 

i. the date of the closing of a public offering of the Company’s securities;

 

ii. registration of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock;

 

iii. any consolidation, merger or other combination of the Company with or into another corporation; or

 

iv. the sale or conveyance to another corporation of all of substantially all of the Company’s assets.

 

D. Upon the conversion, all rights of the holders of the Preferred Stock including, but not limited to, any rights to future dividends shall cease and the person or persons in whose name or names the certificate or certificates for the Preferred Stock are held shall be treated for all purposes as having become record owners of the Common Stock of the Company at that time.

 

E. At the time of conversion, the Company shall pay to the holder of record of any share or shares of Preferred Stock surrendered for conversion any accrued and unpaid cumulative dividends on the shares being converted.

 

F. The issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock shall be made without charge for any tax with respect to the issuance. However, if any certificate is to be issued in a name or names other than the name or names of the holder of record of the Preferred Stock converted, the person or persons requesting the issuance shall pay to the Company the amount of any tax that may be payable in connection with any transfer involved in the issuance, or shall establish to the satisfaction of the Company that the tax has been paid or is not due and payable.

 

G. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the shares of Preferred Stock, such number of its shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding shares of Preferred Stock, and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all of the then outstanding shares of Preferred Stock, the Company shall take such corporate action as may be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purpose.

 

4

 

 

H. The Company shall not be required to issue fractional shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock. The number of full shares of Common Stock which shall be issued upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock shall be computed upon the basis of the aggregate number of shares of Preferred Stock. If any interest in a fractional share of Common Stock would otherwise be deliverable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock, such fractional share shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share if equal to or greater than one-half (½) of a share. Such fractional share shall be rounded down to the nearest whole share if less than one- half (½) of a share.

 

I. Upon conversion of all of the share of Preferred Stock, such shares shall be considered retired and shall have the status of authorized but unissued preferred stock of the Company which can be subdivided into various Classes or Series with Rights, Privileges and Preferences to be hereafter determined and designated by the Board of Directors, by filing a Certificate of Designation for each separate Class or Series.

 

6. Capital Changes.

 

A. If the Company takes any action to increase or decrease the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock (a “Capital Change”), then the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock shall be proportionately increased or decreased, as the case may be, so that, upon conversion into Common Stock, the percentage interest of any holder of shares of Preferred Stock shall not be modified from what his, her or its then current percentage interest in the Company would have been if the Preferred Stock had been converted into Common Stock immediately prior to any such Capital Change, effective in either case at the close of business on the date that the Capital Change becomes effective. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any transaction in which securities of the Company are, pursuant to the approval by the Board of Directors, issued for reasonable and fair consideration which is received by the Company after the date of the filing of this Certificate of Designation, shall be excluded from any adjustment pursuant to this Paragraph “A” of this Article “6” of this Certificate of Designation. Any Capital Change shall include, but shall not be limited to, any of the events which are set forth below:

 

i. a merger, reorganization or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity or entities, whether or not the Company is the surviving entity;

 

ii. the issuance of any newly authorized shares of the Common Stock of the Company;

 

iii. a recapitalization of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock of the Company, which has the effect of changing the percentage of shares of Common Stock which shall be received by holders of shares of Preferred Stock upon conversion in relation to the total number of outstanding shares of the Common Stock of the Company;

 

iv. stock split; and

 

v. if at any time or from time to time it shall appear to the Board of Directors that conditions may arise by reason of any action proposed to be taken by the Company, which conditions, in the opinion of the Board of Directors, are not adequately provided for by any of the other provisions hereof and which would affect the conversion rights of the holders of the Preferred Stock, the conversion ratio then in effect shall be adjusted in such manner as the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, may determine to be equitable under the circumstances.

 

5

 

 

B. Upon the occurrence of any of the Capital Changes which are described in Paragraph “A” of this Article “6” of this Certificate of Designation, or any other event which might result in an adjustment to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock (any of such Capital Changes is hereinafter referred to as an “Adjustment Event”), then, in any such event, the Company shall immediately take whatever measures are necessary, including, but not limited to, the issuance of additional shares of Common Stock of the Company or a surviving entity as the case may be, to ensure that the percentage interest in the Company of the holders of shares of Preferred Stock is not modified from the percentage of stock which the holders would own, had no Adjustment Event occurred. Any adjustment which is required pursuant to this Paragraph “B” of this Article “6” of this Certificate of Designation shall be deemed effective retroactive to the date of the Adjustment Event. These adjustments shall be made successively if more than one Adjustment Event occurs. The provisions of this Article “6” of this Certificate of Designation shall be applicable to any Adjustment Event which occurs commencing upon the filing date of this Certificate of Designation.

 

C. No adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Article “6” of this Certificate of Designation by reason of the issuance of any additional shares upon the exercise of options heretofore granted.

 

7. Redemption. The Company shall have the right to redeem, in its sole and absolute discretion, at any time after five (5) years after the Issuance Date, all or any portion of the shares of Preferred Stock at a price of five dollars ($5.00) per share.

 

8. Registration.

 

A. If the Company proposes to register any of its Common Stock (other than pursuant to a registration on Form S-8 or any successor form), it will give prompt written notice to the holder of Preferred Stock of its intention to effect such registration (the “Registration”). Within ten (10) business days after receiving such written notice of Registration, the holders of shares of Preferred Stock representing a majority of the shares of Preferred Stock then outstanding may make a written request that the Company include in the proposed Registration all of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock (the “Registerable Securities”).

 

B. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to include in any Registration all Registrable Securities.

 

C. The Company shall not be obligated pursuant to this Article “8” to effect a Registration of the Registrable Securities if the Company discontinues the related Registration at any time prior to the effective date of any Registration Statement filed in connection therewith.

This personal guarantee applies in the event of default for any reason and shall not be construed as a separate business relationship between Synergia and the individual guarantor.

We will rely upon data provided to us by you without independent verification or confirmation. You warrant that all information provided to us is complete and accurate to the best of your knowledge.

Plain English

Please let us know if there is anything we can do to make your life easier.

 

We are committed to providing you with outstanding service and rely on timely and appropriate feedback from you to continue to do so. Please let us know promptly if any issues arise or if we can better serve you in any way.

Exhibit 14.1

 

EDGE DATA SOLUTIONS, INC.

 

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

 

(Adopted by the Board of Directors on March 25, 2022)

 

INTRODUCTION

 

This Code of Business Conduct and Ethics covers a wide range of business practices and procedures. It does not cover every issue that may arise but it sets out basic principles to guide all employees of Edge Data Solutions, Inc. and its subsidiaries, if any (the “Company”). All of our officers, directors and employees must conduct themselves accordingly and seek to avoid even the appearance of improper behavior. The code should also be provided to and followed by the Company’s agents and representatives, including consultants.

 

If a law conflicts with a policy in this Code, you must comply with the law. If you have any questions about these conflicts, you should ask your supervisor how to handle the situation.

 

Those who violate standards in this Code will be subject to disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment. If you are in a situation that you believe may violate or lead to a violation of this Code, follow the guidelines described in Section 14 of this Code.

 

1. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS, RULES AND REGULATIONS

 

Obey the law, both in letter and in spirit, is the foundation on which our ethical standards are built. All employees must respect and obey the laws of the cities, states and countries in which we operate. Although not all employees are expected to know the details of these laws, it is important to know enough about them to determine when to seek advice from supervisors, managers or other appropriate personnel.

 

2. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

 

A “conflict of interest” exists when a person’s private interests interfere in any way with the interests of the Company. A conflict situation can arise when an employee, officer or director takes actions or has interests that may make it difficult to perform his or her Company work objectively and efficiently. Conflicts of interest may also arise when an employee, officer or director, or members of his or her family, receives improper personal benefits as a result of his or her position in the Company. Loans to, or guarantees of obligations of, employees and their family members may create conflicts of interest.

 

It is almost always a conflict of interest for a Company employee to work simultaneously for a competitor, customer or supplier. You are not allowed to work for a competitor as a consultant or board member. The best policy is to avoid any direct or indirect business connection with our customers, suppliers or competitors, except on our behalf. Conflicts of interest are prohibited as a matter of Company policy, except under guidelines approved by our Board of Directors. Conflicts of interest may not always be clear-cut, so if you have a question, you should consult with higher levels of management. Any employee, officer or director who becomes aware of a conflict or potential conflict should bring it to the attention of a supervisor, a manager, or other appropriate personnel, or consult with the procedures described in Section 14 of this Code.

 

3. INSIDER TRADING

 

Employees who have access to confidential information are not permitted to use or share that information for stock trading purposes or for any other purpose except the conduct of our business. All non-public information about the Company should be considered confidential information. To use non-public information for personal financial benefit or to “tip” others who might make an investment decision on the basis of this information is not only unethical but also illegal.

 

 
 

 

4. CORPORATE OPPORTUNITIES

 

Employees, officer and directors are prohibited from taking for themselves personally, opportunities that are discovered through the use of corporate property, information or position without the consent of the Board of Directors. No employee may use corporate property, information or position for improper personal gain, and no employee may compete with the Company, directly or indirectly.

 

5. COMPETITION AND FAIR DEALING

 

We seek to outperform our competition fairly and honestly. Stealing proprietary information, possessing trade secret information that was obtained without the owner’s consent, or inducing such disclosures by past or present employees of other companies is prohibited. Each officer, director and employee should respect the rights of and deal fairly with the Company’s customers, suppliers, competitors and employees. No employee should take unfair advantage of anyone through manipulation, concealment, abuse of privileged information, misrepresentation of material facts, or any other intentional unfair-dealing practice.

 

The purpose of business entertainment and gifts in a commercial setting is to create good will and sound working relationships, not to gain unfair advantage with customers. No gift, or entertainment should ever be offered, given, provided or accepted by any Company employee, family member of an employee or agent, unless it (a) is not in cash, (b) is consistent with customary business practices, (c) is not excessive in value, (d) cannot be construed as a bribe or payoff and (e) does not violate any laws or regulations. Please discuss with your supervisor any gifts or proposed gifts that you are not certain are appropriate.

 

6. DISCRIMINATION AND HARASSMENT

 

The diversity of the Company’s employees is a tremendous asset. We are firmly committed to providing equal opportunity in all respects aspects of employment and will not tolerate illegal discrimination or harassment of any kind. Examples include derogatory comments based on racial or ethnic characteristics and unwelcome sexual advances.

 

7. HEALTH AND SAFETY

 

The Company strives to provide each employee with a safe and healthy work environment. Each employee has responsibility for maintaining a safe and healthy workplace for all employees by following safety and health rules and practices and reporting accidents, injuries and unsafe equipment, practices or conditions.

 

Violence and threatening behavior are not permitted. Employees should report to work in condition to perform their duties, free from the influence of illegal drugs or alcohol. The use of alcohol and/or illegal drugs in the workplace will not be tolerated.

 

8. RECORD-KEEPING

 

The Company requires honest and accurate recording and reporting of information in order to make responsible business decisions. For example, only the true and actual number of hours worked should be reported.

 

Many employees regularly use business expense accounts, which must be documented and recorded accurately. If you are not sure whether a certain expense is legitimate, ask your supervisor or the Company’s controller or chief financial officer.

 

All of the Company’s books, records, accounts and financial statements must be maintained in reasonable detail, must appropriately reflect the Company’s transactions and must conform to both applicable legal requirements and to the Company’s systems of accounting and internal controls. Unrecorded or “off the books” finds or assets should not be maintained unless permitted by applicable laws or regulations.

Business records and communications often become public, and we should avoid exaggeration, derogatory remarks, guesswork or inappropriate characterizations of people and companies that can be misunderstood. This applies equally to e-mail, internal memos and formal reports. Records should always be retained or destroyed according to the Company’s record retention policies. In accordance with these policies, in the event of litigation or governmental investigation please consultant your supervisor. All e-mail communications are the property of the Company and employees, officers and directors should not expect that Company or personal e-mail communications are private. All e-mails are the property of the Company. No employee, officer or director shall use Company computers, including to access the internet, for personal or non-Company business.

 

9. CONFIDENTIALITY

 

Employees must maintain the confidentiality of confidential information entrusted to them by the Company or its customers, except when disclosure is required by laws or regulations. Confidential information includes all non-public information that might be of use to competitors, or harmful to the Company or its customers, if disclosed. It also includes information that suppliers and customers have entrusted to us. The obligation to preserve confidential information continues even after employment ends. In connection with this obligation, employees, officers and directors may be required to execute confidentiality agreements confirming their agreement to be bound not to disclose confidential information. If you are uncertain whether particular information is confidential or non-public, please consult your supervisor.

 

10. PROTECTION AND PROPER USE OF COMPANY ASSETS

 

All officers, directors and employees should endeavor to protect the Company’s assets and ensure their efficient use. Theft, carelessness and waste have a direct impact on the Company’s profitability. Any suspected incident of fraud or theft should be immediately reported for investigation. Company equipment should not be used for non-Company business.

 

The obligation of officers, directors and employees to protect the Company’s assets includes it proprietary information. Proprietary information includes intellectual property such as trade secrets, patents, trademarks and copyrights, as well as business, marketing and service plans, engineering and manufacturing ideas, designs, databases, records, salary information and any unpublished financial data and reports. Unauthorized use or distribution of this information would violate Company policy. It could also be illegal and result in civil or even criminal penalties.

 

11. PAYMENTS TO GOVERNMENT PERSONNEL

 

The Unites States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act prohibits giving anything of value, directly or indirectly, to officials of foreign governments or foreign political candidates in order to obtain or retain business. It is strictly prohibited to make illegal payments to government officials of any country.

 

In addition, the U. S. government has a number of laws and regulations regarding business gratuities that may be accepted by U. S. government personnel. The promise, offer or delivery to an official or employee of the U. S. government of a gift, favor or other gratuity in violation of these rules would not only violate Company policy, but could also be a criminal offense. State and local governments, as well as foreign governments, may have similar rules.

 

12. WAIVERS OF THE CODE OF BUSINESS CONDUCT AND ETHICS

 

Any waiver of the provisions of this Code may be made only by the Board of Directors and will be promptly disclosed as required by law or stock exchange rule or regulation.

 

13. REPORTING ANY ILLEGAL OR UNETHICAL BEHAVIOR

 

Employees are encouraged to talk with supervisors, managers or Company officials about observed illegal or unethical behavior, and when in doubt about the best course of action in a particular situation. It is the Company’s policy not to allow retaliation for reports of misconduct by others made in good faith by employees. Employees are expected to cooperate in internal investigations of misconduct, and the failure to do so could serve as grounds for termination.

 

Any employee may submit a good faith concern regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters without fear of dismissal or retaliation of any kind.

14. COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES

 

We must all work to ensure prompt and consistent action against violations of this Code. However, in some situations, it is difficult to know if a violation has occurred. Since we cannot anticipate every situation that may arise, it is important that we have a way to approach a new question or problem. These are steps to keep in mind:

 

Make sure you have all the facts. In order to reach the right solutions, we must be as fully informed as possible.

 

● Ask yourself, what specifically you are being asked to do - does it seem unethical or improper? This will enable you to focus on the specific question you are faced with, and the alternatives you have. Use your judgment and common sense; if something seems unethical or improper, it probably is.

 

● Clarify your responsibility and role. In most situations, there is shared responsibility. Are your colleagues informed? It may help to get others involved and discuss the problem.

 

Discuss the problem with your supervisor. This is the basic guidance for all situations. In many cases, your supervisor will be more knowledgeable about the question, and will appreciate being brought into the decision-making process. Keep in mind that it is your supervisor’s responsibility to help solve problems. If your supervisor does not or cannot remedy the situation, or you are uncomfortable bringing the problem to the attention of your supervisor, bring the issue to the attention of the human resources supervisor, or to an officer of the Company.

 

You may report ethical violations in confidence and without fear of retaliation. If your situation requires that your identity be kept secret, your anonymity will be protected. The Company does not permit retaliation of any kind for good faith reports of ethical violations.

 

Always ask first, act later. If you are unsure of what to do in any situation, seek guidance before you act.
