Item 1. Business

 

Corporate Overview

 

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 30, 2005 under the name “Oliver Creek Resources Inc.” At inception, we were an exploration stage company engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of natural resources properties.

 

Effective August 12, 2008, we effected a forward stock split of our issued and outstanding common stock on a 12 new for 1 old basis such that our authorized capital remained at 75,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 per share and our issued and outstanding shares increased from 2,000,000 shares of common stock to 24,000,000 shares of common stock. Also effective August 12, 2008, we changed our name from “Oliver Creek Resources Inc.” to “Independence Energy Corp.” The change of name was approved by our directors and a majority of our shareholders.

The name change and forward stock split became effective with the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board at the opening for trading on August 12, 2008 under the new stock symbol “IDNG”.

 

Effective June 22, 2012, we effected a forward split of our authorized and issued and outstanding shares of common stock on a 5 new for 1 old basis such that our authorized capital increased from 75,000,000 to 375,000,000 shares of common stock and correspondingly, our issued and outstanding shares of common stock increased from 24,360,831 to 121,804,155 shares of common stock, all with a par value of $0.001 per share.

 

On April 5, 2013, we entered into a private placement subscription agreement with Europa Capital AG (“Europa”) pursuant to which we issued to Europa a convertible debenture in the aggregate amount of $46,000. The convertible debenture carried interest at the rate of 6% per annum and could be converted into shares of our common stock at the rate of $0.01 per share. Interest and principal were payable on the third anniversary of the debenture, provided that any unconverted portions could be pre-paid at our discretion.  As of January 31, 2014, we owed $2,284 of accrued interest in respect of the debenture. On January 31, 2014, the debenture holder forgave the convertible promissory note and all accrued interest, resulting in a gain on forgiveness of loan of $48,284.

 

Effective July 22, 2013, we entered into and closed a securities purchase agreement with Asher Enterprises, Inc. (“Asher”). Under the terms of the agreement, we issued an 8% convertible promissory note, in the principal amount of $57,000, with a maturity date of April 17, 2014 and could be converted into shares of our common stock at a rate of 58% of the market price on any conversion date, any time after 180 days from July 15, 2013, subject to adjustments as further set out in the note. Our company had the right to prepay the note together with all accrued interest within 180 days of July 15, 2013 subject to a prepayment penalty equal to 15% during the first 30 days of the prepayment period and increasing by 5% during each subsequent 30 day period. Following the maturity date of April 17, 2014, the note bore interest at the rate of 22%.  As of March 25, 2014 (See “Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities”), all of the unpaid principal and accrued interest in respect to these convertible promissory note was converted into shares of our common stock.

 

On September 23, 2013, we closed a securities purchase agreement dated September 17, 2013 with Asher. Under the terms of the agreement, our company issued an 8% convertible promissory note, in the principal amount of $32,500, with a maturity date of June 19, 2014 which could be converted into shares of our company’s common stock at a rate of 58% of the market price on any conversion date, any time after 180 days from June 19, 2014, subject to adjustments as further set out in the note. Our company had the right to prepay the note together with all accrued interest within 180 days of September 17, 2013 subject to a prepayment penalty equal to 15% during the first 30 days of the prepayment period and increasing by 5% during each subsequent 30 day period. Following the maturity date of June 19, 2014, the note would have borne interest at the rate of 22%. As of April 8, 2014 (See “Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities”), all unpaid principal and accrued interest in respect of the convertible promissory note was converted into shares of our common stock.

 

On March 31, 2014, we acquired from American Medical Distributors, LLC (“AMD”) all right, title and interest of AMD in and to a certain distribution contract (the “HuBDIC Agreement”) dated November 27, 2013, with HuBDIC Co. Ltd., a Korea corporation, pursuant to which AMD had been granted the exclusive right to distribute in North, South and Central America certain professional and consumer grade non-contact thermometers known as the Thermofinder FS-700 Pro and FS-700 (retail version), and any future versions. As additional consideration, we also received $60,000 and any assets of AMD related to its distribution business, including all sales leads and related materials (collectively, including the HuBDIC Agreement, the “AMD Assets”).

 

In consideration of the AMD Assets, we issued to four designees of AMD an aggregate of 152,172,287 shares of our common stock.

Effective November 12, 2014, we completed a private equity funding with certain accredited investors. Under the terms of the agreement we sold 14,905,918 shares of our common stock in exchange for $50,000 ($0.0034 per share) in the aggregate. Additionally, in consideration of the purchase price, we granted warrants to acquire an additional 7,452,959 shares of our stock over a two year period at an aggregate exercise price of $0.0050 per share or gross proceeds of $37,265.

 

Current Business

 

We currently operate two lines of business – distribution of medical devices and oil and gas exploration. We are classified as a crude petroleum and natural gas company and, until recently, our business focused exclusively on oil and natural gas exploration and production in the United States.

 

Business History - Medical Device Distribution

 

On March 31, 2014, we entered into and closed an asset purchase agreement with American Medical Distributors, LLC (“AMD”). Pursuant to the agreement we have acquired from AMD all right, title and interest of AMD in and to a certain distribution contract (the “HuBDIC Agreement”) dated November 27, 2013 with HuBDIC Co. Ltd., a Korea corporation (“HuBDIC”), pursuant to which AMD had been granted the exclusive right to distribute in the Americas certain professional and consumer grade non-contact thermometers known as the Thermofinder FS-700 Pro and FS-700 (retail version), and any future versions. As additional consideration, we also received $60,000 and any assets of AMD related to its distribution business, including all sales leads and related materials (collectively, including the HuBDIC Agreement, the “AMD Assets”).

 

The material terms of the HuBDIC Agreement are as follows: (a) term of five years from November 7, 2013; (b) upon receiving U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) marketing clearance of the HuBDIC products, we are required to purchase a minimum of 3,000 product units for re-sale during year one of the distribution period, 8,000 during year two, and 15,000 during each subsequent year; (c) a $10,000 distribution fee previously paid to HuBDIC by AMD will be credited toward our first product order; and (d) the distribution fee is refundable to us at our election. On or about July 2, 2014, HuBDIC received marketing clearance from the FDA for the sale and distribution of the Thermofinder. In Novermebr 2014, we paid for and took delivery of 500 units of the Thermofinder FS-700 Pro. We have agreed with HuBDIC to defer payment for and delivery of the balance of 2,500 units until a later date. The Company is actively soliciting orders for and has sold some of the first 500 units. The Company’s board of directors is currently evaluating future marketing strategies for the sales and distribution of additional units.

 

About Thermofinder FS-700 and FS-700 Pro

 

The Thermofinder is medical grade non-contact thermometer that is currently approved and distributed in Asia and Europe.  It is available in two versions, the FS-700 (retail model) and FS-700 Pro (professional model).  The device features include the following:

·International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 13485 and American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Compliant.

 

·More hygienic than conventional oral and ear reading thermometers—Eliminates the need for probe covers and reduces sterilization requirements.

 

·The FS-700 Pro model is equipped with a medical grade protection cover, logo lanyard, anti-microbial option, and rechargeable battery and station.

  

Markets and Marketing Plan

 

The Thermofinder is intended to provide economic thermometry to a broad base of users and is ideal for home and institutional use.  The market for the device includes:

 

·Retail Pharmacies

 

·Hospitals

 

·Physicians Offices

 

·Private and Public Healthcare Clinics

 

·Corrections Facilities

 

·Schools

 

·Veterinary Clinics

 

·Emergency Services

 

·Long Term Care Facilities

 

We intend to focus our initial marketing on the professional market. This strategy will reduce initial marketing costs, while establishing product awareness in the health community.

 

Plan of Operation

 

Our plan of operations for the next 12 months is to prepare our marketing and distribution strategy and our sales and distribution force for the Thermofinder.  We will also require additional capital to carry out our current business plan. We currently do not have sufficient financing to fully execute our business plan and there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain the necessary financing to do so.

 

We may not be able to fund our cash requirements through our current operations. Historically, we have been able to raise a limited amount of capital through private placements of our stock, but we are uncertain about our continued ability to raise funds privately. If we are unable to secure adequate capital to execute our plan of operation, our shareholders may lose some or all of their investment and our business may fail.

 

We estimate that our expenses over the 12 month period beginning June 1, 2015 will be approximately $1,000,000 as described in the table below. These estimates may change significantly depending on the performance of our products in the marketplace and our ability to raise capital from shareholders, investors, lenders or other sources.

Employees and Consultant Compensation  12 months   250,000 
General and Administrative  12 months   150,000 
Total     $1,000,000 

 

We intend to meet our cash requirements for the 12 month period beginning June 1, 2015 through a combination of debt financing and equity financing by way of private placements and through product sales. We currently do not have any arrangements in place to complete any private placement financings and there is no assurance that we will be successful in completing any private placement financings on terms that will be acceptable to us. We may not raise sufficient funds to fully carry out our business plan, in which case we intend to scale back our expenditures in order to accommodate the working capital available to us.

 

Business History - Oil and Gas Exploration

 

We continue to hold a 10% working interests in the Quinlan 1, 2, 3, and 4 wells located in Pottawatomie County, Oklahoma, described below (“Quinlan Wells”). This interest is our only remaining oil and gas property. We do not directly hold the leases underlying the wells and therefore are not responsible for the payment or evaluation of any obligations under the leases. The leaseholder of the property is responsible for paying and maintaining the leases. As a working interest holder, we are responsible for our pro-rata share of lease operating expenses.    We may sell our working interest in the Quinlan Wells if we identify a favorable opportunity or otherwise determine that disposing of the asset would be in our best interest. As at the date of this report we have been invoiced for approximately $57,628 in lease operating expenses related to the Quinlan Wells.  This amount remains unpaid.  Our failure to pay the outstanding amounts entitles the lease holder to foreclose on our working interest.  The operator of the Quinlan Wells has offered to cancel all outstanding obligations on the Quinlan Wells in exchange for an assignment of our ownership interest in the Quinlan Wells. We are currently evaluating this offer.

 

On December 15, 2011, we acquired a 2.5% working interest in the Quinlan Wells from Wise Oil and Gas LLC, with the option to increase that interest to 10%. As of the closing, we began generating revenue from the operating well on the property even though the well was in the exploration and evaluation stage. On December 23, 2011, we closed an acquisition for an additional 2.5% working interest bringing our total working interest in the Quinlan Wells to 5% for which we paid a total of $78,080.

 

Effective March 1, 2012, we paid an additional $78,080 to Wise Oil and Gas for an additional 5% participation in the Quinlan 1, 2 and 3 wells at a cost of $15,616 per 1%. Our company now holds a 10% interest in the Quinlan Wells.  

 

Effective March 29, 2012, we acquired a 5% working interest on a 70% net revenue interest in a drilling program in Coleman County, Texas. The interest was acquired from MontCrest Energy, Inc. (“MontCrest”) for total consideration of $115,000. On June 18, 2012, we amended and replaced the original agreement to acquire a 7% working interest on a 75% net revenue interest in two well drilling programs for additional consideration of $46,000.

 

On May 29, 2012, we entered into and closed a purchase agreement and bill of sale to acquire a 2.5% working interest on a 70% net revenue interest in two oil and gas wells: the Taylor - MEI # 113 and Taylor - MEI # 115 from MontCrest. The wells are located on MontCrest's Taylor Lease in Coleman County, Texas. The 2.5% interest was acquired for total consideration of $82,500. The interest includes approximately 20 acres of land surrounding each well above the measured depth of four thousand feet. The wells are located within T. & N.O.R.R Survey No. 28, Abstract 1667 in Coleman County, Texas.

On June 8, 2012, we entered into and closed a joint development and operating agreement with MontCrest Energy Properties, Inc., MontCrest and Black Strata, LLC (“Black Strata”), to acquire a 12.5% working interest, with an option to acquire an additional 12.5% working interest from MontCrest. The 12.5% interest was acquired for total consideration of $90,785. The areas in mutual interest consist of approximately 2,421 acres, in Coleman County, Texas, located within T. & N.O.R.R Survey Block, Abstract 1640, Abstract 654, Abstract 851 and Abstract 865.

 

On February 28, 2013, we entered into a compromise, settlement and property exchange agreement dated February 25, 2013 with MontCrest and Black Strata. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, we transferred to MontCrest our 25% working interests in Wells 105, 106, 113 and 115 of the Coleman County South Leases located in Coleman County, Texas, in consideration of a 100% interest in approximately 1,400 acres of the Coleman County South Lease held by Black Strata.   We have no outstanding obligations in relation to the leases or the compromise, settlement, and property exchange agreement dated February 25, 2013.

 

During the year ended January 31, 2014, the Company elected not to renew the working interest in the Coleman County South Lease (held by Black Strata) and recognized an impairment of $335,284 to reflect the book value of that lease. As at April 1, 2014, all oil and gas leases in which we held any interest located on the Coleman County South Property expired.

 

On June 23, 2014, we impaired our remaining oil and gas properties and changed our focus to the medical products distribution business. Our oil and gas properties have been classified as held for sale and are reflected at the estimated fair value we expect to realize. As a result, of our impairment of the oil and gas properties and change in direction for our business, all expenses related to the oil and natural gas operations have been classified as discontinued operations.

 

Insurance

 

We do not maintain any insurance but will be required under the HuBDIC agreement to maintain insurance in the future prior to launching our medical device distribution operations. Because we do not currently have any insurance, if we are made a party to a liability action, we may not have sufficient funds to defend the litigation. If that occurs a judgment could be rendered against us that could cause us to cease operations.

 

Competition

 

The medical device distribution industry is highly competitive. We are a development stage company without established operations in our industry and have a weak competitive position. We aim to compete with junior and senior medical device manufacturers or distributors who are actively seeking to develop or acquire and sell devices competitive with our own.  Competition for the medical device assets is intense and we may lack the technological information, human resources, infrastructure, expertise, and financial resources available to our competitors. Such competition could adversely impact our ability to attain the financing necessary for us to develop our current assets, generate revenues, or obtain and develop future assets.

 

Many of the companies with which we aim to compete for financing and for the acquisition of medical device assets have greater financial and technical resources than those available to us. Accordingly, these competitors may be able to spend greater amounts on assets of merit or on developing and distributing their own technologies.

 

General competitive conditions may be substantially affected by various forms of regulation introduced from time to time by the governments of the United States and other countries, as well as factors beyond our control, including overall levels of supply and demand for the product types which we seek to distribute.

 

In the face of competition, we may not be successful in acquiring or successfully exploiting any distribution rights which we have acquired or may acquire in the future.  Despite this, we hope to compete successfully in the medical device industry by:

 

8
 

 

·maintaining low operating costs;

 

·relying on the strength of our management’s and future sales team’s contacts;

 

·utilizing our team's previous product and sales and support experience in the specific device area; and

 

·using our size and experience to our advantage by adapting quickly to changing market conditions or responding swiftly to potential opportunities.

 

Research and Development Expenditures

 

We have not incurred any research expenditures over the past two fiscal years.

 

Intellectual Property

 

We do not own, either legally or beneficially, any patent or trademark. We have established a website and maintain the domain www.independenceenergycorp.com.  We have also purchased the domain independencehealthcorp.com.

 

Employees; Identification of Certain Significant Employees

 

Currently, we do not have any employees. Our officers are providing their services to us on an independent consultant basis, but we have not entered into any consulting or employment agreements with them. Our directors, executive officers and certain contracted individuals play an important role in the running of our company. We do not expect any material changes in the number of employees over the next 12 month period. We intend to engage contractors from time to time to consult with us on specific corporate affairs or to perform specific tasks in connection with our anticipated sales and marketing programs.

 

Government Regulation

 

Regulation of Medical Device Distribution Operations

 

Government authorities in the United States, Canada, and other countries in the Americas regulate the research, development, testing, manufacturing, labeling, promotion, advertising, distribution, marketing and export and import of medical devices at the federal, state and local levels. The process of obtaining regulatory approvals and the subsequent substantial compliance with appropriate federal, state, local and foreign statutes and regulations requires the expenditure of substantial time and financial resources.

 

In the United States, thermometers for human clinical use are classified as medical devices and require (i) an establishment license and (ii) depending on the class of device sought to be marketed, pre-market approval (PMA) or the less rigorous pre-market clearance.

 

Establishment License

 

Owners or operators of places of business (also called establishments or facilities) that are involved in both the production and distribution of medical devices intended for use in the United States (U.S.) are required to register annually with the FDA. This process is known as establishment registration.  Most establishments that are required to register with the FDA are also required to list the devices that are made there and the activities that are performed on those devices.  As domestic distributors of medical devices in the United States, we will not be required to obtain an establishment license, although the owner/operator of the products we distribute will be so required.  Certain countries do not require an establishment license.

 

9
 

 

Depending on the class designation of the device sought to be marketed, the owner/operator of the product must also obtain pre-market approval (PMA) or pre-market notification clearance before marketing in the U.S.

 

U.S. Medical Device Class Designations:

 

The FDA has established classifications for different generic types of devices and grouped them into medical specialties. Each of these devices is assigned to one of three regulatory classes based on the level of control the FDA deems necessary to assure the safety and effectiveness of the device.

 

Class I includes products of which several examples are already approved and marketed in Canada or the U.S. As long as the basic science remains the same, the application for approval of a new product is straightforward. Examples of products in this category include pregnancy tests or regular needles/syringes.

 

Class II products are those which are non-invasive, meaning they are not injected or inserted into the patient. Often these products are approved and sold throughout the world. The products which we are currently focusing on distributing all belong to Class II. In order to secure the necessary license for these products, we are required to submit all the documentation which led to the approval of the products in other countries. In our case, our products are already approved in Europe and Korea.  We are required to submit to the FDA all the scientific data, results, approval process and certificates of good quality management, ISO 13485. Usually, products that have the ISO accreditation will satisfy FDA requirements.

 

Class III and IV include medical devices that use invasive techniques. If the medical device has been approved in another region, it is considered Class III. If it is new, it is considered Class IV. Invasive testing equipment such as colonoscopy, endoscopy, body lesion removal devices etc., are all considered Class III or IV. None of our products fall within Class III or IV.

 

Premarket Clearance

 

We intend to focus our medical device distribution business on Class I or II devices.  Electronic Clinical Thermometers such as the Thermofinder are classified as Class II devices by the FDA are not subject to Premarket Approval (PMA).

 

Each person who wants to market in the U.S., a Class I or II device intended for human use, for which a Premarket Approval (PMA) is not required, must submit a 510(k) application to the FDA unless the device is exempt from the Section 510(k) requirements of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act).

 

A 510(k) application is a pre-market submission made to the FDA to demonstrate that the device to be marketed is at least as safe and effective, that is, substantially equivalent to a legally marketed device that is not subject to PMA. Submitters must compare their device to one or more similar legally marketed devices and make and support their substantial equivalency claims. A legally marketed device is a device that was legally marketed prior to May 28, 1976, for which a PMA is not required, or a device that has been reclassified from Class III to Class II or Class I, or a device which has been found substantially equivalent through the 510(k) process.  The legally marketed device(s) to which equivalence is drawn is commonly known as the "predicate."  Although devices recently cleared under 510(k) are often selected as the predicate to which equivalence is claimed, any legally marketed device may be used as a predicate.  Legally marketed also means that the predicate cannot be one that is in violation of the Act.

 

Before marketing a device, each submitter must receive an order, in the form of a letter, from the FDA which finds the device to be substantially equivalent and states that the device can be marketed in the U.S. This order "clears" the device for commercial distribution.

 

10
 

 

Until the submitter receives an order declaring a device substantially equivalent, the submitter may not proceed to market the device. Once the device is determined to be substantially equivalent, it can then be marketed in the U.S. The substantially equivalent determination is usually made within 90 days and is made based on the information submitted by the submitter.

 

Substantial Equivalence

 

A 510(k) clearance requires demonstration of substantial equivalence to another legally U.S. marketed device. Substantial equivalence means that the new device is at least as safe and effective as the predicate.

 

A device is substantially equivalent if, in comparison to a predicate it:

 

·has the same intended use as the predicate; and

 

·has the same technological characteristics as the predicate; 

 

or

 

·has the same intended use as the predicate; and

 

·has different technological characteristics and the information submitted to the FDA;

 

·does not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness; and

 

·demonstrates that the device is at least as safe and effective as the legally marketed device.

 

A claim of substantial equivalence does not mean the new and predicate devices must be identical. Substantial equivalence is established with respect to intended use, design, energy used or delivered, materials, chemical composition, manufacturing process, performance, safety, effectiveness, labeling, biocompatibility, standards, and other characteristics, as applicable.

 

A device may not be marketed in the U.S. until the submitter receives a letter declaring the device substantially equivalent. If the FDA determines that a device is not substantially equivalent, the applicant may:

 

·resubmit another 510(k) application with new data,

 

·request a Class I or II designation through the de novo process

 

·file a reclassification petition, or

 

·submit a premarket approval application (PMA).

 

Status of Thermofinder Premarket Clearance

 

HuBDIC Co. Ltd. made a 510(k) submission to the FDA on January 29, 2014 and received pre-market clearance for the Thermofinder FS-700 and FS-700 Pro on or about July 2, 2014. 

 

Future Business Opportunities

 

The Company’s board of directors is currently evaluating our future strategy for marketing the Thermofinder FS-700 and FS-700 Pro non-contact thermometers. Under consideration is possibly contracting with third parties for the distribution of the Thermofinder FS-700 Pro to hospitals, doctors, schools, home health care providers, etc. The Company is considering engaging an independent marketing representative to offer its consumer version of the digital non-contact thermometer, Thermofinder FS-700, through retail chains. No decision has yet been made on the future marketing strategies.

 

Our board of directors is evaluating whether to seek opportunities related to the distribution of other medical devices besides the Thermofinder.

11
 

 

The Company’s board of directors is also considering entry into other lines of business including, but not necessarily limited to, commercial and hospitality real estate, specialized financial services and equipment rental services. No decision has yet been made on entering these or other future lines of business.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

Risks Related to Our Overall Business Operations

 

We have a limited operating history with significant losses and expect losses to continue for the foreseeable future.

 

We have yet to establish any history of profitable operations. We have incurred net losses of $396,808 and $543,622 for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. As a result, at January 31, 2015, we had an accumulated deficit of $1,210,000.  We have not generated any significant revenues since our inception and do not anticipate that we will generate revenues sufficient to sustain our operations for the foreseeable future. Our profitability will require the successful commercialization of our medical device technology or future products for which we may acquire a distribution license. We may not be able to successfully exploit any distribution rights which we acquire and may never become profitable.

  

There is doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern due to recurring losses from operations, accumulated deficit and insufficient cash resources to meet our business objectives, all of which means that we may not be able to continue operations.

 

Our independent auditors have added an explanatory paragraph to their audit opinion issued in connection with our financial statements for the years ended January 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, with respect to their doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to our financial statements for the year ended January 31, 2015, we have generated operating losses since inception, and our cash resources are insufficient to meet our planned business objectives.  We expect to continue to incur development costs and operating costs, losses and negative cash flows until our products gain market acceptance sufficient to generate a commercially viable and sustainable level of sales, and/or additional products are developed and commercially released and sales of such products made so that we are operating in a profitable manner. Our history of losses and no revenues raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

  

We have had negative cash flows from operations since inception. We will require significant additional financing, the availability of which cannot be assured, and if our company is unable to obtain such financing, our business may fail.

 

To date, we have had negative cash flows from operations and have depended on sales of our equity securities and debt financing to meet our cash requirements. We may continue to have negative cash flows. We have estimated that we will require approximately $1,000,000 to carry out our business plan for the next twelve months. There is no assurance that actual cash requirements will not exceed our estimates. We will require additional funds to finance working capital and pay for operating expenses and capital requirements until we achieve a positive cash flow.

 

12
 

 

We have been invoiced for but have not paid approximately $57,628 in lease operating expenses related to our interest in the Quinlan Wells. Our failure to pay the amount outstanding entitles the leaseholder to foreclose on our interest. We have received an offer from the operator of the Quinlan Wells to cancel the outstanding obligations on the Quinlan Wells in exchange for our assigning our interest in the Quinlan Wells to the operator. We are currently evaluating this offer.

 

Our ability to market and sell our medical devices will be dependent upon our ability to raise significant additional financing. If we are unable to obtain such financing, we will not be able to fully develop our business. Specifically, we will need to raise additional funds to:

 

·support our planned growth and carry out our business plan;

 

·hire quality personnel for all areas of our business; and

 

·address competing technological and market developments.

 

We have a total of 375,000,000 authorized shares of which 360,094,082 shares of our common stock are currently outstanding. Because of the limited number of available authorized shares we may not be able to obtain adequate additional equity or debt financing on acceptable terms as required. The private equity financing we completed in November 2014 prohibits us from completing a reverse stock split for a period of one year from the date of the closing. In order to raise adequate levels of capital necessary to meet the Company’s future needs, the board of directors may need to consider amending its articles of incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares or authorize the possible issuance of preferred stock.

 

Even if financing is available, it may not be available on terms that are favorable to us or in sufficient amounts to satisfy our requirements. Any additional equity financing may involve substantial dilution to our then existing shareholders. If we require, but are unable to obtain, additional financing in the future, we may be unable to implement our business plan and our growth strategies, respond to changing business or economic conditions, withstand adverse operating results and compete effectively. More importantly, if we are unable to raise further financing when required, we may be forced to scale down our operations or sell significant assets, and our ability to generate revenues may be negatively affected.

 

If we fail to effectively manage the growth of our company and the commercialization of our medical devices, our future business results could be harmed and our managerial and operational resources may be strained.

 

As we proceed with the commercialization of our medical devices and the expansion of our marketing and commercialization efforts, we expect to experience significant growth in the scope and complexity of our business. We will need to add staff to market our services, manage operations, handle sales and marketing efforts and perform finance and accounting functions. We anticipate that we will be required to hire a broad range of personnel in order to successfully advance our operations. This growth is likely to place a strain on our management and operational resources. The failure to develop and implement effective systems, or to hire and retain sufficient personnel for the performance of all of the functions necessary to effectively service and manage our business, or the failure to manage growth effectively, could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

 

The effect of competition in our industry could adversely impact our ability to generate revenues.

 

The medical device distribution industry is highly competitive. We are a development stage company without established operations in our industry and have a weak competitive position. We aim to compete with junior and senior medical device manufacturers or distributors who are actively seeking to develop or acquire and sell devices competitive with our own.  Competition for the medical device assets is intense and we may lack the technological information, human resources, infrastructure, expertise, and financial resources available to our competitors.  Such competition could adversely impact our ability to attain the financing necessary for us to develop our current assets, generate revenues, or obtain and develop future assets.

 

13
 

 

The Company has failed to file tax returns since inception.

 

The Company has never filed federal or state tax returns. While the Company has incurred losses since its inception and no tax liabilities are expected, the failure to file federal and state tax returns could result in penalties.

 

Risks Related to the Market for Our Stock

 

The market price of our common stock can become volatile, leading to the possibility of its value being depressed at a time when you may want to sell your holdings.

 

The market price of our common stock can become volatile. Numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, may cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate significantly. These factors include: our earnings releases, actual or anticipated changes in our earnings, fluctuations in our operating results or our failure to meet the expectations of financial market analysts and investors; changes in financial estimates by us or by any securities analysts who might cover our stock; speculation about our business in the press or the investment community; significant developments relating to our relationships with our customers or suppliers; stock market price and volume fluctuations of other publicly traded companies and, in particular, those that are in our industry; customer demand for our products; changes in governmental regulation of the medical devices that we distribute; investor perceptions of our industry in general and our company in particular; the operating and stock performance of comparable companies; general economic conditions and trends; announcements by us or our competitors of new products, significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships or divestitures; changes in accounting standards, policies, guidance, interpretation or principles; loss of external funding sources; sales of our common stock, including sales by our directors, officers or significant stockholders; and additions or departures of key personnel. Securities class action litigation is often instituted against companies following periods of volatility in their stock price. Should this type of litigation be instituted against us, it could result in substantial costs to us and divert our management’s attention and resources.

 

Moreover, securities markets may from time to time experience significant price and volume fluctuations for reasons unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may adversely affect the price of our common stock and other interests in our company at a time when you want to sell your interest in us. 

 

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on shares of our common stock and do not anticipate doing so.

 

We intend to retain any future earnings for use in the operation and expansion of our business. We do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future but will review this policy as circumstances dictate. Should we decide in the future to do so our ability to pay dividends and meet other obligations may depend upon the receipt of dividends or other payments from any operating subsidiaries we may have in the future.

 

We are subject to penny stock regulations and restrictions, therefore the market for our common stock is limited and you may have difficulty selling your shares.

 

The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define so-called “penny stocks” to be an equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exemptions. Our common stock is therefore subject to Rule 15g-9 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Penny Stock Rule. This rule imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers that sell such securities to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors” (generally, individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 (excluding the value of their primary residence) or annual incomes exceeding $200,000 individually, or $300,000 together with their spouses). For transactions covered by the Penny Stock Rule, a broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to sale. As a result, this rule may affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and may affect the ability of purchasers to sell any of our securities in the secondary market.

 

14
 

 

For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require delivery, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule prepared by the SEC relating to the penny stock market. Disclosure is also required to be made about sales commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements are required to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stock.

 

There can be no assurance that our common stock will qualify for exemption from the Penny Stock Rule. In any event, even if our common stock were exempt from the Penny Stock Rule, we would remain subject to Section 15(b)(6) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which gives the SEC the authority to restrict any person from participating in a distribution of penny stock, if the SEC finds that such a restriction would be in the public interest.

 

Our common stock is illiquid and subject to price volatility unrelated to our operations.

 

If a market for our common stock does develop, its market price could fluctuate substantially due to a variety of factors, including market perception of our ability to achieve our planned growth, quarterly operating results of other companies in the same industry, trading volume in our common stock, changes in general conditions in the economy and the financial markets or other developments affecting us or our competitors. In addition, the stock market itself is subject to extreme price and volume fluctuations. This volatility has had a significant effect on the market price of securities issued by many companies for reasons unrelated to their operating performance and could have the same effect on our common stock.

  

A large number of shares may be eligible for future sale and may depress our stock price.

 

We may be required, under terms of future financing arrangements, to offer a large number of common shares to the public, or to register for sale by future private investors a large number of shares sold in private sales to them.

 

Sales of substantial amounts of common stock, or a perception that such sales could occur, and the existence of options or warrants to purchase shares of common stock at prices that may be below the then-current market price of our common stock, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of our equity securities, either of which would decrease the value of any earlier investment in our common stock.

Quinlan Wells

 

On December 15, 2011, we closed the acquisition of a 2.5% interest in the Quinlan Wells from Wise Oil and Gas LLC, with the option to increase that interest to 10%. On December 23, 2011 we closed an additional 2.5% for a total of 5%. The cost of the 5% of interest was $78,080. The Quinlan Wells are located in Pottawatomie County, Oklahoma, within the NE Shawnee Field Township 11 North, Range 4 East, within Section 19. The four wells lie between the Nemaha ridge to the west and then on to the west flank of the Seminole-Cushing ridge (Hunton Uplift) to the east and north of Pauls Valley.

 

Effective March 1, 2012, we paid an additional $78,080 to Wise Oil and Gas for an additional 5% participation in the Quinlan 1, 2 and 3 wells located in Pottawatomie County, Oklahoma at a cost of $15,616 per 1%.We now hold a 10% interest in the Quinlan 1, 2 and 3 wells. Quinlan #4 is a salt water disposal well for the Quinlan 1, 2 and 3 wells.

 

 

16
 

 

The Quinlan Lease lies within the NE Shawnee Field in Sections 13 and 24, Township 11 North, Range 4 East and Sections 18 and 19, Township 11 North, Range 5 East, Pottawatomie County, Oklahoma, and is approximately 11 miles north and east of Shawnee near the junction of State Highway 9A and Interstate I40 East. The Quinlan’s #1, #2, #3, and #4 (the salt water well) all lie in Section 19 of the above township and range and are in the southern most portion of the Central Oklahoma Platform. The Central Oklahoma Platform is located between two large sedimentary basins, the Anadarko Basin to the west and the Arkoma Basin to the east and southeast. The field with the four wells lies between the Nemaha Ridge to the west and then on to west flank of the Seminole-Cushing Ridge (Hunton Uplift) to the east and north of the Pauls Valley Uplift. The forces responsible for creating regional structures in the Ordovician appear to have begun in the middle Devonian epeirogeny. At this time, uplift occurred from the northeast, creating a regional dip to the southwest in the Hunton Limestone and older formations; therefore, with associated faulting with these uplifts allowed these ancient structures to accumulate oil reserves. The Wilzetta Fault occurred during this major uplift period and is a major fault system trending Northeast-Southwest and extending many miles both to the north and south of the NE Shawnee Field and is considered to be the west boundary fault to the field. Specifically, the field appears to be trapping oil in several faulted anticlinal features with production being reflected in the Hunton Limestone, Viola Limestone, and the first Wilcox Sand.

 

The Quinlan #1 was originally open hole completed in the first Wilcox Sandstone from 4,778' to 4,782'. The Simpson Dolomite from 4,742' to 4,750' and the Viola Limestone from 4,726' to 4,732' were tested several years later. Later production from the Quinlan #1 was documented producing an oil cut from 8 - 15%, (i.e. 100 barrels of total volume = 8 to 15 barrels are oil) on a daily basis from the first Wilcox Sandstone (primary objective), Viola Limestone and Simpson Dolomite (second objective). Finally, the Hunton Limestone formation was perforated and produced on a forty acre spacing pattern and was also perforated in the Quinlan #2. The Quinlan #1 is currently producing approximately 6 barrels of oil per day.

 

The Quinlan #2 was originally drilled to the base of the Simpson Dolomite formation and completed in the Hunton Limestone. The Hunton Limestone was perforated from 4,594' to 4,604'. In 1976, the well was deepened to the first Wilcox and perforated in the Viola Limestone from 4,720' to 4,733' and the Simpson Dolomite from 4,756' to 4,762'. In February of 2011, the well was installed with a 70HP down-hole test submersible pump which was recently removed after a 90 day interval resulting in an average daily production rate of 13 barrels of oil with 1,000 barrels of saltwater. The test pump was removed from the wellbore on May 17, 2011 and re-equipped the following day with a permanent 120HP down-hole submersible pump. Quinlan #2 has been totally re-equipped during 2012, and is currently producing approximately 18 barrels of oil per day.

 

The Quinlan #3 was tested in the Hunton Limestone and proved to be uneconomical due to a very low oil production rate with heavy water production. Quinlan #3 has been totally re-equipped during 2012, and is currently producing approximately 8 barrels of oil per day.

 

The Quinlan #4 was the last well to be drilled in the field with the goal of finding the Hunton Limestone productive. Unfortunately, the down dip Hunton Limestone had incurred a facies change becoming heavily dolomitized with very low crystalline porosity. The first Wilcox Sandstone was tested after logs indicated a productive interval with a contradicting sample evaluation. Eventual testing results indicated fresh water had been injected into the zone from an adjacent well without being reported to the proper authorities thus creating anonymous log inferences. The well was completed as a salt water field disposal well in the first Wilcox Sandstone which subsequently improved the overall field economics.

 

Summary of Estimated Oil and Gas Reserves as of Fiscal-Year End

 

We do not have any audited or independently verified figures for production or reserve reporting for the Quinlan Wells.

 

Current Status of Working Interest

 

We currently own a 10% interest in the Quinlan Wells.  As at the date of this report we have been invoiced for approximately $57,628 in lease operating expenses related to the Quinlan Wells.  This amount remains unpaid.  Our failure to pay the outstanding amounts entitles the lease holder to foreclose on our working interest.  We are actively seeking purchasers to assume our working interest and related liabilities.

Operating Revenues

 

For the period from November 30, 2005 (date of inception) to January 31, 2015, our company did not earn any significant operating revenues.

 

Operating Expenses and Net Loss

 

Operating expenses for the year ended January 31, 2015 were $197,266 compared with $175,266 for the year ended January 31, 2014.  The increase of $22,000 was due to an increase in general and administrative costs relating to the $57,220 amortization of intangible costs, approximately $15,500 of higher travel costs and approximately $5,000 of higher professional fees. This increase was partially offset with approximately $50,000 of lower management and consulting costs and approximately $6,000 of lower office expenses as compared to prior years.

 

For the year ended January 31, 2015, our company incurred a net loss of $396,808 or $nil per share compared with $543,622 or $nil per share for the year ended January 31, 2014.  In addition to operating expenses, our company incurred accretion and interest expense of $74,166 relating to the $45,000 balance on a convertible note debenture (original convertible debenture amount was $57,000) which was unsecured, accrued interest at 8% per annum, and was due on April 17, 2014 and a $32,500 convertible note debenture, which was unsecured, accrued interest at 8% per annum, and was due on June 19, 2014.  The $45,000 note was convertible into shares of common stock 180 days after the date of issuance (January 11, 2014) at a conversion rate of 58% of the average of the three lowest closing bid prices of our company’s common stock for the ten trading days ending one trading day prior to the date the conversion notice was sent by the holder to our company. The $32,500 note was convertible into shares of common stock 180 days after the date of issuance (March 16, 2014) at a conversion rate of 58% of the average of the three lowest closing bid prices of our company’s common stock for the ten trading days ending one trading day prior to the date the conversion notice was sent by the holder to our company. Both notes bore interest at 22% after maturity. Subsequent to January 31, 2014, the remaining principal and accrued interest on all convertible note debentures were converted into common shares of our company and resulted in a gain of $24,029 from the change in the fair value of the derivative liability. Furthermore, we recorded a loss of $147,739 as an impairment charge against the cost of our oil and gas properties resulting from our decision not to remain in the oil and gas exploration business. This has been recorded within the Loss on Discontinued Operations.

 

21
 

 

During the year ended January 31, 2014, our company recorded a gain on the forgiveness of a loan for $48,284, and impairment loss of $335,284 relating to our company’s decision to not renew the Coleman County leases, and a loss on the change in fair value of the derivative liability of $54,438 based on the mark-to-market of the fair value of the floating rate conversion feature in the convertible debentures.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of January 31, 2015, our company had cash of $4,188 compared with $7,292 at January 31, 2014.  The decrease in cash was attributed to the fact that our company obtained additional financing from the issuance of convertible debentures during the year and used the proceeds for operating expenditures

 

Our company had total assets at January 31, 2015 of $335,332 compared with $220,334 at January 31, 2014.  Overall, cash decreased by $3,104 and oil and gas properties decreased by $151,050 due to the impairment of the Quinlan oil and gas wells. These decreases were offset by a $263,211 increase (net of $57,220 in amortization costs) in intangible assets related to the March 31, 2014 acquisition of the assets of American Medical Distributors, LLC.

 

At January 31, 2015, our company had total liabilities of $257,412 compared with $362,725 at January 31, 2014.  The decrease in total liabilities was attributed to a $31,599 increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities from continuing operations. This increase was offset by the conversion of $35,834 of liability relating to the convertible debentures, net of unamortized discount of $41,666, and the related reduction in the derivative liability of $97,237 for the fair value of the beneficial conversion feature of the convertible debentures.

 

Cashflow from Operating Activities

 

During the year ended January 31, 2015, our company used cash of $112,474 for operating activities compared with $159,575 during the year ended January 31, 2014.  The increase in cash used for operating activities was attributed to proceeds received from the issuance of convertible debentures which were used to repay outstanding obligations incurred in day-to-day operations of our company.

 

Cashflow from Investing Activities

 

During the year ended January 31, 2015, our company received $60,000 from the March 31, 2014 acquisition of American Medical Distributors, LLC. We did not have any investing activities during the year ended January 31, 2014.

 

Cashflow from Financing Activities

 

During the year ended January 31, 2015, our company received $15,100 from a loan by two of our shareholders and $49,900 for the November 12, 2014 private equity sale of 14,905,918 shares of our common stock. A portion of the proceeds from the private equity sale were used to repay the shareholder loan.

 

In our 2014 fiscal year, we received $133,000 in financing from the issuance of convertible debentures. Our company received $46,000 from the issuance of a convertible debenture which was unsecured, accrued interest at 6% per annum, and was due on April 5, 2016, $57,000 from the issuance of a convertible debenture which was unsecured, accrued interest at 8% per annum, and was due on April 17, 2014, and $32,500 from the issuance of a convertible debenture which was unsecured, accrued interest at 8% per annum, and was due on June 19, 2014, less financing fees which were deducted in each case from the proceeds before being disbursed to our company.   

 

Going Concern

 

We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue any extensive acquisitions and activities. For these reasons, our auditors stated in their report on our audited financial statements that they have substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern without further financing.

 

22
 

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

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

 

Future Financings

 

We will continue to rely on equity sales of our common shares in order to continue to fund our business operations. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to existing stockholders. There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of the equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund our operations and other activities.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.

 

We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements. A complete summary of these policies is included in the notes to our financial statements. In general, management's estimates are based on historical experience, on information from third party professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.

 

Oil and Gas Properties

 

Our company utilizes the full-cost method of accounting for petroleum and natural gas properties.  Under this method, our company capitalizes all costs associated with acquisition, exploration, and development of oil and natural gas reserves, including leasehold acquisition costs, geological and geophysical expenditures, lease rentals on undeveloped properties and costs of drilling of productive and non-productive wells into the full cost pool on a country-by-country basis. When our company obtains proven oil and gas reserves, capitalized costs, including estimated future costs to develop the reserves proved and estimated abandonment costs, net of salvage, will be depleted on the units-of-production method using estimates of proved reserves. The costs of unproved properties are not amortized until it is determined whether or not proved reserves can be assigned to the properties. Until such determination is made, our company assesses annually whether impairment has occurred, and includes in the amortization base drilling exploratory dry holes associated with unproved properties.

 

Our company applies a ceiling test to the capitalized cost in the full cost pool. The ceiling test limits such cost to the estimated present value, using a ten percent discount rate, of the future net revenue from proved reserves based on current economic and operating conditions. Specifically, our company computes the ceiling test so that capitalized cost, less accumulated depletion and related deferred income tax, do not exceed an amount (the ceiling) equal to the sum of: The present value of estimated future net revenue computed by applying current prices of oil and gas reserves (with consideration of price changes only to the extent provided by contractual arrangements) to estimated future production of proved oil and gas reserves as of the date of the latest balance sheet presented, less estimated future expenditures (based on current cost) to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves computed using a discount factor of ten percent and assuming continuation of existing economic conditions; plus the cost of property not being amortized; plus the lower of cost or estimated fair value of unproven properties included in the costs being amortized; less income tax effects related to differences between the book and tax basis of the property. For unproven properties, our company excludes from capitalized costs subject to depletion, all costs directly associated with the acquisition and evaluation of the unproved property until it is determined whether or not proved reserves can be assigned to the property. Until such a determination is made, our company assesses the property at least annually to ascertain whether impairment has occurred. In assessing impairment our company considers factors such as historical experience and other data such as primary lease terms of the property, average holding periods of unproved property, and geographic and geologic data. Our company adds the amount of impairment assessed to the cost to be amortized subject to the ceiling test.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

Our company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and our company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

of Independence Energy Corporation

 

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Independence Energy Corporation (a Nevada corporation), which comprise the balance sheet as of January 31, 2015, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, 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. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Independence Energy Corporation as of January 31, 2015, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended January 31, 2015 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company’s net losses from operations raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding those matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our opinion is not modified with respect to that matter.

Independence Energy Corp.

Notes to the Financial Statements 

 

1. Nature of Operations and Continuance of Business

 

Independence Energy Corp. (the "Company") was incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 30, 2005.  The Company was organized to explore natural resource properties in the United States.  On March 31, 2014, the Company acquired the exclusive right to distribute certain medical products and has changed its focus to the medical products distribution business.

 

Going Concern

 

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that the Company will be able to continue as a going concern without further financing. Currently, the Company must continue to realize its assets to discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has generated minimal revenues to date and has never paid any dividends and is unlikely to pay dividends or generate significant earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future.  As of January 31, 2015, the Company had a working capital deficit of $185,291 and an accumulated deficit of $1,210,000. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability to raise equity or debt financing, and the attainment of profitable operations from the Company's future medical products distribution business. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. 

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

a)Basis of Presentation

 

These financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The Company’s fiscal year-end is January 31.

 

b)Use of Estimates

 

The financial statements and related notes are prepared in conformity with GAAP which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to valuation and impairment of long-lived assets, asset retirement obligations, fair value of share-based payments, and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

c)Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share

 

The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 260, Earnings Per Share, which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing Diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. As of January 31, 2015, the Company had 7,452,959 (2014 – 29,463,117) potentially dilutive shares.

 

d)Oil and Gas Property Costs

 

The Company utilizes the full-cost method of accounting for oil and gas properties.  Under this method, the Company capitalizes all costs associated with acquisition, exploration, and development of oil and natural gas reserves, including leasehold acquisition costs, geological and geophysical expenditures, lease rentals on undeveloped properties and costs of drilling of productive and non-productive wells into the full cost pool on a country-by-country basis. If the Company obtains proven oil and gas reserves, capitalized costs, including estimated future costs to develop the reserves proved and estimated abandonment costs, net of salvage, will be depleted on the units-of-production method using estimates of proved reserves. The costs of unproved properties and exploratory wells in progress are not amortized until it is determined whether or not proved reserves can be assigned to the properties. Until such determination is made, the Company assesses annually whether impairment has occurred, and includes in the amortization base drilling exploratory dry holes associated with unproved properties.

 

The Company applies a ceiling test to the capitalized cost in the full cost pool. The ceiling test limits such cost to the estimated present value, using a ten percent discount rate, of the future net revenue from proved reserves based on current economic and operating conditions. Specifically, the Company computes the ceiling test so that capitalized cost, less accumulated depletion and related deferred income tax, do not exceed an amount (the ceiling) equal to the sum of: The present value of estimated future net revenue computed by applying current prices of oil and gas reserves (with consideration of price changes only to the extent provided by contractual arrangements) to estimated future production of proved oil and natural gas reserves as of the date of the latest balance sheet presented, less estimated future expenditures (based on current cost) to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves computed using a discount factor of ten percent and assuming continuation of existing economic conditions; plus the cost of property not being amortized; plus the lower of cost or estimated fair value of unproven properties included in the costs being amortized; less income tax effects related to differences between the book and tax basis of the property. For unproven properties, the Company excludes from capitalized costs subject to depletion, all costs directly associated with the acquisition and evaluation of the unproved property until it is determined whether or not proved reserves could be assigned to the property. Until such a determination is made, the Company assesses the property at least annually to ascertain whether impairment has occurred. In assessing impairment the Company considers factors such as historical experience and other data such as primary lease terms of the property, average holding periods of unproved property, and geographic and geologic data. The Company adds the amount of impairment assessed to the cost to be amortized subject to the ceiling test. During the year ended January 31, 2015, the Company decided that it does not intend to continue its oil and gas business and the relevant assets have been impaired.

 

e)Asset Retirement Obligations

 

The Company accounts for asset retirement obligations in accordance with standards which require the Company to record the fair value of liabilities related to future asset retirement obligations in the period the obligation is incurred.  Generally, the amount of the asset retirement obligation and the costs capitalized will be equal to the estimated future cost to satisfy the abandonment obligation using current prices that are escalated by an assumed inflation factor after discounting the future cost back to the date that the abandonment obligation was incurred using an assumed cost of funds rate for the Company. After initially recording such amounts, these asset retirement obligations are accreted to their future estimated value using the same assumed cost of funds and the capitalized costs are depleted using the future gross revenue method over the productive lives of the Company’s oil and gas properties.  This is accounted for as a reduction of assets held for sale as these are directly related to the assets to be disposed.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

  

f)Beneficial Conversion Features

 

From time to time, the Company may issue convertible notes that may contain an embedded beneficial conversion feature. A beneficial conversion feature exists on the date a convertible note is issued when the fair value of the underlying common stock to which the note is convertible into is in excess of the remaining unallocated proceeds of the note after first considering the allocation of a portion of the note proceeds to the fair value of the warrants, if related warrants have been granted. The intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature is recorded as a debt discount with a corresponding amount to additional paid in capital. The debt discount is amortized to interest expense over the life of the note using the effective interest method. There were no outstanding beneficial conversion features outstanding at January 31, 2105.

 

g)Derivative Liability

 

From time to time, the Company may issue equity instruments that may contain an embedded derivative instrument which may result in a derivative liability. A derivative liability exists on the date the equity instrument is issued when there is a contingent exercise provision. The derivative liability is recorded at its fair value calculated by using an option pricing model such as a multi-nominal lattice model. The fair value of the derivative liability is then calculated on each balance sheet date with the corresponding changes in the asset or liability recorded as derivative gains and losses in the consolidated statement of operations. There were no derivative liabilities at January 31, 2015. The Company does not believe that it has any uncertain tax positions.

 

h)Income Taxes

 

Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. The Company has adopted ASC 740, Income Taxes, as of its inception. Pursuant to ASC 740, the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. The potential benefits of net operating losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense in the period they are incurred.

 

i)Comprehensive Loss

 

ASC 220, Comprehensive Income, establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive loss and its components in the financial statements. As of January 31, 2015, the Company had no items that represented comprehensive loss and, therefore, did not include a schedule of comprehensive loss in the financial statements.

  

j)Financial Instruments

 

Pursuant to ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, an entity is required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:

 

34
 

 

Independence Energy Corp.

Notes to the Financial Statements 

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Level 1

 

Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2

 

Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

 

Level 3

 

Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and amounts due to related parties. Pursuant to ASC 820 and ASC 825, the fair value of our cash is determined based on “Level 1” inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. We believe that the recorded values of all of our other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations.

 

k)Reclassifications

 

Certain financial statement items have been reclassified to conform to current period financial reporting requirements.

 

l)Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company has limited operations and is considered to be in the development stage. In the period ended January 31, 2015, the Company elected to early adopt Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-10, Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements. The adoption of this ASU allows the Company to remove the inception to date information and all references to development stage.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued new guidance intended to change the criteria for recognition of revenue. The new guidance establishes a single revenue recognition model for all contracts with customers, eliminates industry specific requirements and expands disclosure requirements. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this core principal, an entity should apply the following five steps: (1) identify contracts with customers, (2) identify the performance obligations in the contracts, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation in the contract, and (5) recognize revenue as the entity satisfies performance obligations. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early application is not permitted. We are currently evaluating what impact adoption of this guidance would have on our financial position, results of operations, cash flows and disclosures.

 

Going Concern

 

In August 2014, the FASB issued guidance on disclosures of uncertainties about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern. The guidance requires management's evaluation of whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. This assessment must be made in connection with preparing financial statements for each annual and interim reporting period. Management's evaluation should be based on the relevant conditions and events that are known and reasonably knowable at the date the financial statements are issued. If conditions or events raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern, but this doubt is alleviated by management's plans, the entity should disclose information that enables the reader to understand what the conditions or events are, management's evaluation of those conditions or events and management's plans that alleviate that substantial doubt. If conditions or events raise substantial doubt and the substantial doubt is not alleviated, the entity must disclose this in the footnotes. The entity must also disclose information that enables the reader to understand what the conditions or events are, management's evaluation of those conditions or events and management's plans that are intended to alleviate that substantial doubt. The amendments are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We do not expect that adoption will have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.

 

m)New Pronouncements

 

The Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

  

3. Oil and Gas Properties

 

a)On December 15, 2011, the Company acquired a 2.5% interest in four wells in the Quinlan Lease (“Quinlan”) from Wise Oil and Gas LLC (“Wise”), with the option to increase the interest to 10%.

4.Intangible Asset

 

On March 31, 2014, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Agreement”) with American Medical Distributors, LLC (“AMD”) where the Company acquired a five year license dated November 27, 2013 for the exclusive territorial distribution rights from AMD in exchange for the issuance of 152,172,287 shares of the Company’s common stock with a fair value of $320,431 based on the fair value of such shares on the date of issuance. As a part of this asset acquisition and share issuance, the Company also received a payment of $60,000. The intangible asset is being amortized over the remaining life of the license agreement. Amortization expense is expected to be $68,664 per year for the years ending 2016 through 2018 and $57,219 in year 2019.

 

5.Convertible Notes

 

a)On July 15, 2013, the Company issued an unsecured convertible note in a principal amount of $57,000 bearing interest at 8% per annum and due on April 17, 2014 (the “April 2014 Note”). The April 2014 Note was convertible into shares of common stock 180 days after the date of issuance (or January 11, 2014) at a conversion rate of 58% of the average of the three lowest closing bid prices of the shares of the Company’s common stock for the ten trading days ending one trading day prior to the date the conversion notice was sent by the holder to the Company. During the year ended January 31, 2014, the Company issued 7,500,000 shares of its common stock upon the conversion of $12,000 of the principal amount of the April 2014 Note. During the year ended January 31, 2015, the Company issued an additional 35,545,055 shares of its common stock upon the conversion of the remaining $45,000 of the principal amount of the April 2014 Note plus $2,280 of accrued interest.

 

In accordance with ASC 470-20, “Debt with Conversion and Other Options”, the Company recognized the intrinsic value of the embedded beneficial conversion feature of the April 2014 Note equal to the principal amount of $57,000 and an equivalent discount which was charged to operations over the term of the April 2014 Note. During the year ended January 31, 2015, the Company had amortized the remaining $41,666 of the debt discount to interest expense. As of January 31, 2015, the April 2014 Note was no longer outstanding and the Company did not have a carrying value for such note.

b)On September 17, 2013, the Company issued an unsecured convertible note in a principal amount of $32,500 bearing interest at 8% per annum and due on June 19, 2014 (the “June 2014 Note”). The Company received $30,000, net of an issuance fee of $2,500. The June 2014 Note was convertible into shares of common stock 180 days after the date of issuance (or March 16, 2014) at a conversion rate of 58% of the average of the three lowest closing bid prices of the shares of the Company’s common stock for the ten trading days ending one trading day prior to the date the conversion notice was sent by the holder to the Company. During the year ended January 31, 2015, the Company issued 28,166,667 shares of its common stock upon the conversion of the full $32,500 of the principal of the June 2014 Note plus $1,300 of accrued interest.

 

In accordance with ASC 470-20, “Debt with Conversion and Other Options”, the Company recognized the intrinsic value of the embedded beneficial conversion feature of the June 2014 Note equal to the principal amount of $32,500 and an equivalent discount which was charged to operations over the term of the June 2014 Note. During the year ended January 31, 2015, the Company had amortized the full $32,500 of the debt discount to interest expense.

8.Related Party Transactions

 

During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2015, the Company incurred $47,649 of management fees (compared to $76,000 for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2014) to the former President and former CEO of the Company.  As of January 31, 2015, the Company had $nil (compared to $3,100 as of January 31, 2014) in prepaid expense for management fees paid to the former President and CEO of the Company.

 

9.Discontinued operations

 

On June 23, 2014, the Company impaired its remaining oil and natural gas properties and changed its focus to the medical products distribution business. The Company’s oil and gas properties have been classified as held for sale and are reflected at the estimated fair value expected to be realized by the Company. As a result of the Company’s impairment of its oil and gas properties and change in direction for the Company’s business, all expenses related to the oil and natural gas operations have been classified as discontinued operations.

 

The results of discontinued operations are summarized as follows:

 

   For the Year
Ended January 31,
   2015  2014
       
Operating Expenses          
           
Impairment of oil and natural gas property  $147,739   $335,284

10.  Income Taxes

 

The Company has $986,035 of net operating losses carried forward to offset taxable income in future years which expire commencing in fiscal 2026.  The income tax benefit differs from the amount computed by applying the US federal income tax rate of 34% to net loss before income taxes. As at January 31, 2015, the Company had no uncertain tax positions.

 

   For the Year Ended January 31, 
   2015   2014 
         
Net loss before taxes  $(396,808)  $(543,622)
Statutory rate   34%   34%
           
Computed expected tax recovery  $(134,915)  $(184,831)
Valuation allowance   134,915    184,831 
           
Income tax provision  $   $ 

 

As at January 31, 2015, the Company has net operating losses carried forwards, which are available to offset future years’ taxable income. These losses expire as follows: 

 

2026  $8 
2027   14,302 
2028   16,032 
2029   24,790 
2030   13,583 
2031   13,719 
2032   51,417 
2033   135,719 
2034   182,249 
2035   534,216 
      
   $986,035 

 

The Company accounts for interest and penalties relating to uncertain tax provisions in the current period statement of income, as necessary. The Company’s tax years from inception are subject to examination.

 

Due to the uncertainty surrounding the realization of the deferred tax assets in future years, management has determined that it is more than likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be not realized in future periods. Accordingly, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets. At January 31, 2015, the Company had cumulative net operating loss carryforward of approximately $986,035 for federal income tax purposes which will begin to expire in 2026. For the year ended January 31, 2015, the valuation allowance increased by approximately $134,915.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

 

There were no disagreements with our accountants related to accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, internal controls or auditing scope or procedure during the two fiscal years and subsequent interim periods.

 

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer (our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer), as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

In accordance with Rules 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer (our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of January 31, 2015 which is the end of the period covered by this annual report on Form 10-K. Based on the evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, and in light of the material weaknesses found in our internal controls over financial reporting, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer (our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer) concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

 

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Our company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed 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.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, 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.

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer (our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer), our company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our company’s internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2015 using the criteria established in “Internal Control - Integrated Framework (1992)” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO").

 

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. In its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2015, our company determined that there were control deficiencies that constituted material weaknesses, as described below.

 

39
 

 

·We do not have an Audit Committee – While not being legally obligated to have an audit committee, it is the management’s view that such a committee, including a financial expert member, is an utmost important entity level control over our company’s financial statements. Currently the board of directors acts in the capacity of the audit committee.

 

·We did not maintain appropriate cash controls – As of January 31, 2015, our company had not maintained sufficient internal control over financial reporting for the cash process, including failure to segregate cash handling and accounting functions, and did not require dual signature on our company’s bank accounts. The effects of poor cash controls were mitigated by the fact that our company had limited transactions in its bank accounts and all transactions are scrutinized.

 

·We did not implement appropriate information technology controls – As of January 31, 2015, our company retains copies of all financial data and material agreements; however there is no formal procedure or evidence of normal backup of our company’s data or off-site storage of the data in the event of theft, misplacement, or loss due to unmitigated factors.

 

Accordingly, our company concluded that these control deficiencies resulted in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by our company’s internal controls.

 

As a result of the material weaknesses described above, management has concluded that our company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2015 based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by COSO.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with our evaluation we conducted of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2015, that occurred during our fourth fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

As a “smaller reporting company” we are not required to include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.

 

Continuing Remediation Efforts to address deficiencies in Company’s Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Once our company is engaged in a business of merit and has sufficient personnel available, then our board of directors, in particular and in connection with the aforementioned deficiencies, will establish the following remediation measures:

 

·We will attempt to increase the number of members on our board of directors and nominate an audit committee which will include an independent director who is a financial expert,

 

·We will appoint additional personnel to assist with the preparation of our company’s monthly financial reporting, including preparation of the monthly bank reconciliations.

Identification of Significant Employees

 

We have no employees.  Our officers and directors provide their services to our company as independent consultants on a non-exclusive basis.

 

Family Relationship

 

There are no family relationships between any of our directors or executive officers.

 

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

 

Except as noted below, to the best of our knowledge, none of our directors or executive officers has, during the past ten years:

 

·been convicted in a criminal proceeding or been subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offences);

 

·had any bankruptcy petition filed by or against, or had a receiver appointed for, the business or property of the person, or of any partnership, corporation or business association of which he was a general partner or executive officer, either at the time of the bankruptcy filing or within two years prior to that time;

·been found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action or by the SEC or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated;

 

42
 

 

·been the subject of, or a party to, any federal or state judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, or finding, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated (not including any settlement of a civil proceeding among private litigants), relating to an alleged violation of any federal or state securities or commodities law or regulation, any law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies including, but not limited to, a temporary or permanent injunction, order of disgorgement or restitution, civil money penalty or temporary or permanent cease-and-desist order, or removal or prohibition order, or any law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity; or

In March 2009, The Securities and Exchange Commission filed a complaint against Mr. Schreiber alleging, among other things, violations of Sections 17(a)(2) and 17(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933. Mr. Schreiber vehemently denied such allegation. In order to avoid protracted and expensive litigation, Mr. Schreiber, without admitting or denying the allegations in the complaint, consented in January 2010 to the entry of a final consent judgment that, among other things, enjoins Mr. Schreiber from any future violations of Sections17(a)(2) and 17(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933.

 

Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert

 

Our board of directors does not have an audit committee but we believe all of our directors qualify as financial experts. In addition, we believe Mr. Barrett is an "independent director" as the term is defined in the Nasdaq listing rules.

 

We believe that all of the members of our board of directors are capable of analyzing and evaluating our financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. In addition, we currently do not have nominating, compensation or audit committees or committees performing similar functions nor do we have a written nominating, compensation or audit committee charter. Our directors do not believe that it is necessary to have such committees at this stage of the Company’s development because they believe the functions of such committees can be adequately performed by the members of our board of directors.

 

Code of Ethics

 

We have adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to, among other persons, members of our board of directors, our company's officers including our president, chief executive officer and chief financial officer, employees, consultants and advisors. As adopted, our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics sets forth written standards that are designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote:

 

·honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;

 

·full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that we file with, or submit to, the Securities and Exchange Commission and in other public communications made by us;

 

·compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations;

 

·the prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics to an appropriate person or persons identified in the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics; and

 

·accountability for adherence to the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics.

 

Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics requires, among other things, that all of our company's senior officers commit to timely, accurate and consistent disclosure of information; that they maintain confidential information; and that they act with honesty and integrity.

 

In addition, our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics emphasizes that all employees, and particularly senior officers, have a responsibility for maintaining financial integrity within our company, consistent with generally accepted accounting principles, and federal and state securities laws. Any senior officer who becomes aware of any incidents involving financial or accounting manipulation or other irregularities, whether by witnessing the incident or being told of it, must report it to our company. Any failure to report such inappropriate or irregular conduct of others is to be treated as a severe disciplinary matter. It is against our company policy to retaliate against any individual who reports in good faith the violation or potential violation of our company's Code of Business Conduct and Ethics by another.

 

Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as Exhibit 14.1 to our annual report on Form 10-K filed on May 15, 2012. We will provide a copy of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics to any person without charge, upon request. Requests can be sent to: Independence Energy Corp., Post Office Box 53929, Lafayette, Louisiana 70505.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

 

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our directors, executive officers, and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of common stock and other equity securities of our company. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent stockholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. Based solely upon a review of Forms 3 and 4 and amendments thereto furnished to us under Rule 16a-3(e) during the year ended January 31, 2015, Forms 5 and any amendments thereto furnished to us with respect to the year ended January 31, 2015, and the representations made by the reporting persons to us, we believe that during the year ended January 31, 2015, our executive officers and directors and all persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements.

 

Item 11. Executive Compensation

  (a) our principal executive officer;

He was appointed as chief executive officer, president, chief financial officer, treasurer, secretary of our company on February 22, 2012. He resigned as chief executive officer on March 31, 2014 and resigned from all of his other positions with our company on February 4, 2015.

No such compensation was awarded. Upon his resignation, Mr. Rotelli waived any right he had under the Consulting Agreement to severance payments related to the termination of his agreement.

 

There are no compensatory plans or arrangements, including payments to be received from our company with respect to any current executive officer, that would result in payments to such person because of his or her resignation, retirement or other termination of employment with our company, or its subsidiaries, any change in control, or a change in the person’s responsibilities following a change in control of our company.

 

Stock Option Plan

 

Currently, we do not have a stock option plan in favor of any director, officer, consultant or employee of our company.

Pension, Retirement or Similar Benefit Plans

 

There are no arrangements or plans in which we provide pension, retirement or similar benefits for directors or executive officers.

Changes in Control

 

We are unaware of any contract or other arrangement or provisions of our Articles or Bylaws the operation of which may at a subsequent date result in a change of control of our company. There are not any provisions in our Articles or Bylaws, the operation of which would unreasonably delay, defer, or prevent a change in control of our company.

 

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence

 

In August 2014, Messrs. Schreiber and Klug loaned the Company $15,100 on an unsecured basis with interest accruing at an interest rate of 7% per annum. The loan was repaid in December 2014. Except for this single transaction, no director, executive officer, shareholder holding at least 5% of shares of our common stock, or any family member thereof, had any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction, or proposed transaction during the years ended January 31, 2015 and January 31, 2014, with our company, in which the amount involved exceeded or exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or one percent of the average of our total assets at the year-end for the last two completed fiscal years.

 

Director Independence

 

We currently act with two directors, consisting of Daniel J. Schreiber and Mark Barrett. We have determined that Mr. Schreiber is not an “independent director” as defined in NASDAQ Listing Rule 5605(a)(2). We have made a determination that Mr. Barrett is an “independent director,” under that definition. We do not have a standing audit, compensation or nominating committee, but our directors act in such capacities. We believe that our directors are capable of analyzing and evaluating our financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. Our directors do not believe that it is necessary to have an audit committee at this time because we believe that the functions of an audit committee can be adequately performed by the current directors.

Our board of directors pre-approves all services provided by our independent auditors. All of the above services and fees were reviewed and approved by the board of directors either before or after the respective services were rendered.

 

Our board of directors has considered the nature and amount of fees billed by our independent auditors and believes that the provision of services for activities unrelated to the audit is compatible with maintaining our independent auditors’ independence.
