NOTES
TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE
1 – ORGANIZATION
Blue
Biofuels, Inc (the “Company”) is a technology company focused on emerging technologies in renewable energy, biofuels, and
lignin. In early 2018, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) Ben Slager invented a new technology system we
call Cellulose-to-Sugar or CTS, and the Company filed a patent application for this technology. The CTS patent was awarded in 2021 in
the United States (US10994255) and also in El Salvador. The Company also filed an application for this patent in other major jurisdictions
of the world including the European Patent Organization, Australia, Brazil, China, Japan, the African Regional Intellectual Property
Organization, and the Russian Federation. The patent applications are currently pending in all of these international jurisdictions.
The Company has filed six more patents in the United States, all of which are currently pending. These patents broaden the scope and
protection of the CTS technology.
Mr.
Slager has since further developed the system with the technical staff of the Company. The patented CTS process is a continuous mechanical/chemical
dry process for converting cellulose material into sugar and lignin, as compared to the prior process which was a batch mechanical/chemical
dry process previously used by our Company. The CTS creates molecular contact between two reactive solid components instead of a more
conventional reaction where the reaction takes place between two liquid or gas components in a batch process. The reactants are (1) the
cellulose, which is broken down into its components being sugars and lignin; (2) a catalyst, which is cost effective and abundantly available
in the market from regular suppliers; it is recycled and reused in the process. The CTS mechanical/chemical process allows for exact
process control to ensure that all the material passing through it does so on the optimum reaction parameters through which optimal efficiency
is achieved.
CTS
differs from other commercial processes that are used to convert cellulose into sugar. Other processes use expensive enzymes, or expensive
and harmful chemicals like strong acids or bases. Some use high temperature or high pressure steam. CTS can convert cellulosic material
– including grasses, wood, paper, farm waste, yard waste, forestry products, energy crops like hemp or king grass, and the cellulosic
portion of municipal solid waste – into sugars and lignin, and the sugars subsequently into biofuels in a what is expected to be
a cost effective and environmentally friendly way. The process times needed are significantly shorter than any other cellulosic process.
CTS has a near zero carbon footprint in that the amount of added atmospheric carbon created by burning the biofuels produced by CTS is
reabsorbed by the plant-based seed stock used in the CTS system. The CTS process recycles the water and catalyst.
At
a commercial scale, our management expects to be able to produce ethanol more profitably than existing commercial corn or cellulosic
ethanol producers due to the fact that the CTS process has much lower feedstock cost than corn, is uncomplicated and efficient as compared
to other cellulosic ethanol processes, and is expected to have high value by-products and a highly valued D3 RIN that the Company expects
to potentially receive for each gallon of ethanol. The Company believes a significant difference between CTS and corn ethanol is the
wide range of feedstocks that CTS can process compared to corn. The CTS feedstocks are not food and have much lower costs than corn.
In addition, while in corn ethanol only the corn is used, the CTS uses the whole plant or its waste products.
The
new CTS technology made it worthwhile to financially restructure the Company through Chapter 11. The Company voluntarily filed for Chapter
11 on October 22, 2018, in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in the Southern District of Florida. The Company exited Chapter 11 on September
18, 2019, while keeping all classes, including shareholders, unimpaired. The bankruptcy case was closed on October 25, 2019.
The
Company has built several prototypes of the CTS system to solidify and further develop the process. The Company completed all the parameter
optimizations possible in its lab and was able to generate a 99%+ conversion of the cellulosic material into soluble sugars suitable
for further processing into cellulosic ethanol. The Company has recently contracted with K.R. Komarek to build larger scale systems,
the first of which is anticipated to arrive before the end of the summer of 2022.
The
goal of the first Komarek system is to process much larger volumes of feedstock to produce much higher volumes of sugars. Upon success,
the Company anticipates ordering a larger system and building a semi-commercial scale pilot CTS plant around that. This will be an intermediate
step to the final commercial-scale system. The Company believes that the semi-commercial scale plant will be sufficient to prove the
commercial viability of the CTS technology. Due to its mechanical nature and modularity, management anticipates that one commercial-scale
CTS plant would have multiple modular CTS systems. The Company expects to have the pilot plant running in 2023.
The
CTS system converts plant-based feedstock into two product streams, cellulose and lignin, each of which can be converted into multiple
products: (1) Cellulose is broken down into sugars. Sugar can be used to make biofuels, such as ethanol and sustainable aviation fuel,
and may also be used to make specialty chemicals; and (2) Lignin can potentially be used in ion exchange resins, or to make specialty
chemicals; It can also be burned as a renewable fuel.
Plan
of Operation
The
Company’s strategy is to diversify its product portfolio to include a number of product lines. These potentially include (1) biofuels
– such as ethanol, or converting ethanol into higher biofuels like sustainable aviation fuel and the like; (2) selling sulfur-free
lignin to ion exchange resin producers; (3) making specialty chemicals from lignin; and, (4) potentially making nanocellulose. We believe
these, and other markets, could potentially provide for highly profitable products.
Our
goal is to develop our CTS technology to a commercial scale and then seek to either enter into a joint venture or acquire existing corn
ethanol plants to install the CTS technology. The Company is also looking into converting ethanol to sustainable aviation fuel. To minimize
dilution to shareholders, the Company will seek project-based financing to build (or acquire and retrofit) or joint venture with existing
ethanol producers to produce cellulosic ethanol and lignin and other specialty chemicals from its patented CTS system.
Management
believes that retrofitting existing plants with the CTS technology may achieve more rapid commercialization than building new plants.
After its first plant is profitable, the Company intends to grow with additional plants in the United States and explore international
growth by either licensing the technology or forming joint ventures with foreign domestic partners to build plants.
The
ethanol industry is competitive with over 200 ethanol plants in the United States alone. Currently, the vast majority use corn as the
feedstock. Their profitability depends highly on the fluctuations between the price of corn and the price of ethanol. Since the Company
does not plan to use corn, and plans on having long-term purchase agreements with cellulosic suppliers, we expect that our profitability
will potentially be more consistent.
Any
new biofuels plant that is built would require various government permits. In particular, renewable fuels are subject to rigorous testing
and premarket approval requirements by the EPA’s Office of Transportation and Air Quality and regulatory authorities in other countries.
In the U.S., various federal, and, in some cases, state statutes and regulations also govern or impact the manufacturing, safety, storage
and use of renewable fuels. The process of seeking required approvals and the continuing need for compliance with applicable statutes
and regulations requires the expenditure of resources. The Company anticipates raising the necessary capital for this as a part of its
project-based financing.
The
Energy Policy Act of 2005, which included the Renewable Fuel Standard Program enforced by the US Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”),
mandates a certain amount of renewable fuel be blended into the transportation fuel used by all vehicles in the country. This Program
provides monetary incentives to companies that produce renewable transportation fuel, and establishes Renewable Identification Numbers
(“RINs”) or credits for each gallon of renewable transportation fuel produced in the United States, and breaks down those
fuels into different D-codes depending on the source of the renewable fuel. D3 is the code for renewable ethanol that comes from cellulosic
materials. The EPA’s mandate for cellulosic ethanol is for 620 million gallons for 2021, and 770 million gallons for 2022 (the
D3 mandate). This mandate has increased every year and is statutorily mandated to increase in the future and become a larger portion
of the full renewable fuels mandate, if and when cellulosic biofuels can be produced profitably in larger quantities than they are now.
The RFS mandate for 2022 calls for 20.77 billion gallons of total renewable fuel, 15 billion from conventional biofuels (corn ethanol)
and 5.77 billion from advanced biofuels, including cellulosic biofuels. The “blend wall” (or upper limit to the amount of
ethanol that can be blended into U.S. gasoline and automobile performance and comply with the Clean Air Act) of limiting ethanol content
in gasoline to 10%, limits the total amount of ethanol consumed in the United States. Recent proposals may make 15% blending available
year around. The value of the D3 RIN fluctuates, but as of this filing, it is approximately $2.72 per gallon of ethanol. To profit from
these incentives, the Company plans to apply for these D3 RIN credits as it brings its first plant into commercial operation.
The
Company has also licensed the Vertimass Process to convert ethanol (from the CTS process) into sustainable aviation fuel. There is no
up-front or annual fee until we are converting ethanol into SAF. The license agreement with Vertimass is the subject of a confidentiality
agreement between the parties. Since we are not yet producing ethanol on a commercial scale, it is too preliminary to discuss details.
NOTE
2 – GOING CONCERN
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which
contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern, which assumes the Company will realize its assets and discharge its liabilities
in the normal course of business. The Company has not generated any significant revenue since inception and has incurred losses since
inception. As of June 30, 2022, the Company has incurred accumulated losses of $51,587,750. The Company expects to incur significant
additional losses and liabilities in connection with its start-up and commercialization activities. The Company’s ability to continue
as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities
when they become due and to generate sufficient revenues from its operations to pay its operating expenses. These factors, among others,
raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any
adjustments related to the recoverability and classifications of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classifications of liabilities
that might result from this uncertainty. There are no assurances that the Company will continue as a going concern.
Management
believes that the Company’s future success is dependent upon its ability to achieve profitable operations, generate cash from operating
activities and obtain additional financing. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to generate sufficient cash from operations,
sell additional shares of stock or borrow additional funds. The Company’s inability to obtain additional cash could have a material
adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, and its ability to continue in existence. These financial statements
do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
The
COVID-19 pandemic has negatively affected the U.S. and global economies, disrupted global supply chains, resulted in significant travel
and transport restrictions, including mandated closures and orders to “shelter-in-place,” and created significant disruption
of the financial markets. We are closely monitoring the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of our business, including how
it will impact our customers, employees and supply chain. Given the critical nature of the products that we provide, our office and lab
have remained open during the pandemic. The extent to which our operations may be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic will depend largely
on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be accurately predicted. We may experience additional operating costs due
to increased challenges with our workforce (including as a result of illness, absenteeism or government orders), access to supplies,
capital, and fundamental support services (such as shipping and transportation). Even after the COVID-19 pandemic has subsided, we may
experience materially adverse impacts to our business due to any resulting economic recession or depression. Furthermore, the impacts
of a potential worsening of global economic conditions and the continued disruptions to and volatility in the financial markets remain
unknown.
NOTE
3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis
of Presentation
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of the Company’s majority-owned
subsidiaries over which the Company exercises control.
Principles
of Consolidation
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, after elimination of intercompany
accounts and transactions. Investments in business entities in which the Company lacks control but has the ability to exercise significant
influence over operating and financial policies are accounted for using the equity method. All material intercompany transactions and
balances were eliminated in consolidation.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities as of the dates presented and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods presented. Significant
estimates inherent in the preparation of the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements include estimates of impairment assessment
of identifiable intangible assets and valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. Estimates are based on past experience and other considerations
reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
All
highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents.
Stock
Compensation
The
Company recognizes the cost of all share-based payments under the relevant authoritative accounting guidance. Share-based payments include
any remuneration paid by the Company in shares of the Company’s common stock or financial instruments that grant the recipient
the right to acquire shares of the Company’s common stock. For share-based payments to employees, which consist only of awards
made under the stock option plan described below, the Company accounts for the payments in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic
718, “Stock Compensation” (formerly referred to as SFAS No. 123(R)). Share-based payments to consultants, service providers
and other non-employees are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 718, ASC Topic 505, “Equity Payments to Non-Employees”
or other applicable authoritative guidance.
Stock-based
Compensation Valuation Methodology
Stock-based
compensation resulting from the issuance of common stock is calculated by reference to the valuation of the stock on the date of issuance,
the expense being recognized as the compensation is earned. Stock-based compensation expenses related to employee options and warrants
granted to non-employees are recognized as the stock options and warrants are earned. The fair value of the stock options or warrants
granted is estimated at the grant date, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, and the expense is recognized on a straight-line
basis over the shorter of the period over which services are to be received or the life of the option or warrant. The grant date fair
value of employee share options and similar instruments is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model on the basis of the
fair value of the underlying common stock on the measurement date, adjusted for the unique characteristics of those equity instruments,
using the assumptions noted in the table below. The fair value of the common stock is determined by the then-prevailing closing market
price. Expected volatility was based on the historical volatility of the Company’s closing day market price per share. The expected
term of options and warrants was based upon the life of the option, and the risk-free rate used was based on the U.S. Treasury Daily
Yield Curve Rate.
The
stock compensation issued for services during the 6 months ended June 30, 2022, was valued on the date of issuance. The following assumptions
were used in calculations of the Black-Scholes option pricing models for option and warrant-based stock compensation issued in the six
months ended June 30, 2022:

Property
and Equipment
Property
and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided for on a straight-line basis over the useful
lives of the assets, generally 5 to 10 years. Expenditures for additions and improvements are capitalized; repairs and maintenance are
expensed as incurred.
Patent
Capitalization
If
a product is currently under research and development and is not currently approved for market, costs incurred in connection with patent
applications should generally be expensed in the income statement because there is uncertainty as to the future economic benefit of the
asset. Conversely, if a product is approved for market (as is the case of the end product ethanol of the CTS process), or if future economic
benefit is probable, or if an alternative future use is available to the Company, then such patent costs can be capitalized and amortized
over the expected life of the patent(s). Since the Company’s primary end product is sugar converting to ethanol, which are in wide
use, the Company has determined that it is reasonable to capitalize the patent costs associated with its CTS process, which were $173,030
as of June 30, 2022 and $154,758 as of December 31, 2021.
Research
and Development
The
Company expenses all research and development costs as incurred. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021, the amounts
charged to research and development expenses were $1,666,632,
and $514,860,
respectively.
Revenue
Recognition
Under
ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), the Company recognizes revenues when its customer obtains control
of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which it expects to receive in exchange for those goods.
The Company recognizes revenues following the five-step model prescribed under Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09:
|
1. |
Identify contract(s) with a customer; |
|
2. |
Identify the
performance obligations in the contract; |
|
3. |
Determine
the transaction price; |
|
4. |
Allocate
the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and, |
|
5. |
Recognize
revenues when (or as) we satisfy the performance obligation. |
Common
Stock Purchase Warrants and Other Derivative Financial Instruments
The
Company classifies as equity any contracts that require physical settlement or net-share settlement or provide it with a choice of net-cash
settlement or settlement in the Company’s own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement) provided that such contracts
are indexed to its own stock as defined in ASC 815-40 (“Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity”). The Company classifies
as assets or liabilities any contracts that require net-cash settlement (including a requirement to net cash settle the contract if an
event occurs and if that event is outside the Company’s control) or give the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement
in shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). The Company assesses the classification of its common stock purchase warrants
and other free-standing derivatives at each reporting date to determine whether a change in classification between assets and liabilities
is required.
Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived
assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset group may
not be recoverable. If events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable,
the Company compares the carrying amount of the asset group to future undiscounted net cash flows, excluding interest costs, expected
to be generated by the asset group and their ultimate disposition. If the sum of the undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying
value, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset group exceeds the fair value
of the asset group. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value, less costs to sell.
Income
Taxes
The
Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes.”
Under this method, income tax expense is recognized for the amount of: (i) taxes payable or refundable for the current year and (ii)
deferred tax consequences of temporary differences resulting from matters that have been recognized in an entity’s financial statements
or tax returns. Deferred tax assets 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 the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance
is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if based on the weight of the available positive and negative evidence, it is
more likely than not some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
ASC
Topic 740.10.30 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and
prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position
taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC Topic 740.10.40 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties,
accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. The Company has no material uncertain tax positions for any of the reporting
periods presented.
Profit
(Loss) per Common Share:
Basic
profit (loss) per share amounts have been calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each reporting
period. Diluted loss per share has been calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares plus the potentially dilutive effect
of securities such as outstanding options and warrants. The computation of potential common shares has been performed using the treasury
stock method. The warrants and options are antidilutive for all periods presented. When net loss is reported, diluted and basic net loss
per share amounts are the same as the impact of potential common shares is antidilutive.
Fair
Value Measurements
The
Company adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, which defines fair value as used
in numerous accounting pronouncements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure of fair value measurements.
The
estimated fair value of certain financial instruments, payables to related parties, and accounts payable and accrued expenses are carried
at historical cost basis, which approximates their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.
ASC
820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the
principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement
date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize
the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level
1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level
2 — quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable
Level
3 — inputs that are unobservable (for example cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions)
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
From
time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other standard setting bodies that
may have an impact on the Company’s accounting and reporting. The Company believes that such recently issued accounting pronouncements
and other authoritative guidance for which the effective date is in the future either will not have an impact on its accounting or reporting
or that such impact will not be material to its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows when implemented.
NOTE
4 – PATENTS
The
Company has been granted one patent on its technology, has filed for six others that are pending, and has also applied for international
patents. The Company has capitalized the legal and filing fees in the amount of $173,030 as of June 30, 2022.
NOTE
5 – DEBT
Notes
Payable – Chapter 11 Settlement
On
July 18, 2018, the Company’s former Controller Dennis Lenaburg sued the Company for $2,694,577 dollars plus stock warrants in the
Circuit Court of the 15th Judicial Circuit in Palm Beach County, Florida. That lawsuit was moved to the Bankruptcy Court when
the Company entered Chapter 11 on October 22, 2018. The Company filed a Complaint against Lenaburg on November 16, 2018, in the bankruptcy
court in the Southern District of Florida. The bankruptcy judge ordered mediation, and a settlement was reached that paid Lenaburg $13,650
upon Plan Confirmation and a $50,000 claim payable out of post-confirmation net profits over 3 years, plus 1.5 million common stock warrants
with a strike price of $0.30/share and a ten-year expiration period. The $50,000 is due on September 18, 2022.
Notes
Payable – Related Parties
In
July 2016, the Company issued six (6) short-term notes payable to related parties in conjunction with the Company’s acquisition
of the remaining 49% of AMG Energy Group. These notes had a value of $2,002,126 and accrued interest at a rate of six percent (6%) per
annum. As of December 31, 2018, and December 31, 2017, the total interest accrued on the notes was $278,794.68 and $176,460 respectively.
All of the notes were due on August 4, 2017 and then were in default. However, the notes were held by related parties with the understanding
that the notes were not to be paid until the Company begins generating profit. The Company renegotiated some of these notes during its
Chapter 11 proceedings, whereas others failed to submit a claim and were discharged upon the Court’s Confirmation Order approving
the Company’s Chapter 11 Plan on September 18, 2019. The renegotiated amounts, as per the Plan Confirmation are all to be paid
from 50% of the future net profits and discharged to the extent unpaid five years after the Plan effective date of September 18, 2019.
These amount are 1) Mark Koch $240,990 plus 6% interest on any portion not repaid within 12 months of the Company’s first reported
quarterly net profit; 2) Animated Family Films $579,942 out of the Company’s net profits plus 6% interest; 3) Steven Dunkle, CTWC,
& Wellington Asset Holdings $1.5 million plus 6% interest once there is positive quarterly EBITDA from the first plant of Company,
or, at its option, may convert that into an equity investment in the first plant of the Company, measured by a percentage of the total
cost to build, subject to a minimum equity interest of 1.25% in said plant.
On
February 28, 2018, the Company entered into a short-term loan with Steven Sadaka, with a principal balance of $100,000 due and payable
on May 1, 2018. The note does not accrue interest, however the Company provided 2,000,000 inducement shares to secure the note. These
inducement shares were valued at $84,000 and are being amortized over the life of the note. The note’s maturity date was extended
to 7/1/2018. If the note is not repaid at maturity, then an additional 5,000,000 shares of common stock will be due. The note was renegotiated
during the Company’s Chapter 11 proceedings, and as per the Plan Confirmation, it is agreed that $100,000 is to be paid out of
future gross revenues to satisfy this note in full, with no additional shares to be issued.
On
May 15, 2018, the Company entered into a short-term loan with Christopher Jemapete, with a principal balance of $50,000 due and payable
on May 16, 2019. The note carried an interest rate of 5% plus the company issued 1,250,000 inducement shares to secure the note as well
as 1,000,000 warrants with a $0.10 strike price and with a 5-year expiration. These inducement shares were valued at $36,250 and are
being amortized over the life of the note; the warrants had a value of $24,449. On August 25, 2018, this note was restructured to remove
the warrants. As of June 30, 2018 accrued interest on this note is $315. The note was renegotiated during the Company’s Chapter
11 proceedings, and as per the Plan Confirmation, it is agreed that $50,315.07 is to be paid out of future gross revenues.
On
May 15, 2018, the Company entered into a short-term loan with Pamela Jemapete, with a principal balance of $50,000 due and payable on
May 16, 2019. The note carried an interest rate of 5% plus the company issued 1,250,000 inducement shares to secure the note as well
as 1,000,000 warrants with a $0.10 strike price and with a 5-year expiration. These inducement shares were valued at $36,250 and are
being amortized over the life of the note; the warrants had a value of $24,449. On August 25, 2018, this note was restructured to remove
the warrants. As of June 30, 2018 accrued interest on this note is $315. The note was renegotiated during the Company’s Chapter
11 proceedings, and as per the Plan Confirmation, it is agreed that $50,315.07 is to be paid out of future gross revenues.
Notes
Payable – Other
In
July 2016, the Company issued a short-term note payable to a third party in conjunction with the Company’s acquisition of the remaining
49% of AMG Energy Group. The note had a principal balance of $96,570 and accrued interest at a rate of six percent (6%) per annum. As
of December 31, 2018, and December 31, 2017, the total interest accrued on the note was $14,382.2 and $8,588 respectively. The note was
due on August 4, 2017 and was then in default. The Company renegotiated this note during its Chapter 11 proceedings, and as per the Plan
Confirmation, now the $96,570 is to be paid with no interest out of the same 50% of the future net profits of the Company as the notes
mentioned above, if any, or discharged to the extent unpaid five years after September 18, 2019.
In
November 2017, the Company entered into a convertible debenture with Lucas Hoppel, with a principal balance of $143,000 due and payable
on May 30, 2018. The note carries an 8% one-time interest charge, a $43,000 original issue discount and a 35% conversion discount to
the lowest trade price in the prior twenty-five trading days, after 180 days, in whole or in part at the option of the holder. In addition,
the Company provided 500,000 inducement shares to secure the note, and may have to provide additional shares on the note’s 6-month
anniversary if the Company’s share price declines. These inducement shares were valued at $39,500 and were amortized over the life
of the note. The note can be repaid, without prepayment penalties, within the first 90 days. Thereafter, the note will incur a 120% prepayment
penalty of the then outstanding principal and interest due. In May 2018, the company made two principal payments totaling $40,000. The
note went into default on June 1, 2018 and incurred a 40% penalty of the outstanding balance immediately prior to the default event.
On August 30, 2018, Hoppel sued the Company in Superior Court of the State of California County of San Diego Central District. That case
was staid on October 22, 2018 when the Company filed for Chapter 11 protection in the US Bankruptcy Court in the Southern District of
Florida. Negotiations took place and a settlement was reached on this note and a subsequent note, and confirmed as part of the Plan Confirmation
Order, that Hoppel would be paid a total of $100,000 out of 5% of the future gross revenue of the Company.
In
February 2018, the Company entered into a convertible debenture with Lucas Hoppel, with a principal balance of $165,000 due and payable
on September 21, 2018. The note carries an 8% one-time interest charge, a $15,000 original issue discount and a 40% conversion discount
to the lowest trade price in the prior twenty-five trading days, after 180 days, in whole or in part at the option of the holder. In
addition, the Company provided 500,000 inducement shares to secure the note. These inducement shares were valued at $14,500, and were
amortized over the life of the note. The note can be repaid, without prepayment penalties, within the first 90 days. Thereafter, the
note will incur a 120% prepayment penalty of the then outstanding principal and interest due. The Note went into default on June 1, 2018,
through a cross default provision with another Note to Hoppel, and incurred a 40% penalty of the outstanding balance immediately prior
to the default event. On August 30, 2018, Hoppel sued the Company in Superior Court of the State of California County of San Diego Central
District. That case was staid on October 22, 2018 when the Company filed for Chapter 11 protection in the US Bankruptcy Court in the
Southern District of Florida. Negotiations took place and a settlement was reached on this note and a prior note, and confirmed as part
of the Plan Confirmation Order, that Hoppel would be paid a total of $100,000 out of 5% of the future gross revenue of the Company to
settle both notes.
On
March 27, 2019, the Company entered into an agreement with another creditor, such that its debt will be reduced from $32,000 to $20,000
payable out of future gross revenues, upon the bankruptcy court’s acceptance of the Company’s plan of reorganization. The
Plan was confirmed by the Court on September 18, 2019.

Litigation
The
Company is subject, from time to time, to litigation, claims and suits arising in the ordinary course of business.
On
June 21, 2018, Power Up Lending Group Ltd., sued both the Company and four of its managers, ex-managers, and directors of the Company
in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York. The case was dropped against the Company and the claim discharged

D&O insurance has agreed to cover the CEO Ben Slager, CFO Anthony Santelli, as well as ex-Controller Dennis Lenaburg, in this case.
Management believed the Complaint was frivolous. On June 28, 2022, Power Up Lending Group withdrew the case, and there was no financial
cost to the Company or its Management team.

have a material impact on our consolidated income statements. The most significant impact was the recognition of ROU assets and lease
liabilities for operating leases.
