This preliminary prospectus relates to the registration of 11,000,000 shares of common stock in Cannabis Global, Inc., a Nevada corporation (referred to herein as the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us,” or other similar pronouns). The Company is registering 10,000,000 shares of common stock at a fixed price of $0.06 per share in a direct public offering (“Direct Offering”). In addition, the Company is registering 1,000,000 shares of common stock currently held by our “Selling Stockholders,” or individually, a “Selling Stockholder.” The Selling Stockholders will sell the shares of common stock at a fixed price of $0.06 per share until such time, if ever, that the common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, the OTCQX, the OCTQB or listed on a securities exchange. See “Plan of Distribution” beginning on page 24 of this prospectus for more information.

 

Our shares of common stock subject to the Direct Offering and Selling Stockholders are referred to herein collectively as our “Shares.” We estimate our total offering registration costs to be approximately $524.66 and our legal and auditor related fees will be $6,000 equaling at total expense to the Company of $6,524.66 relating to the registration, which will be paid from existing corporate funds, thus not affecting the proceeds of this offering. There is no minimum number of shares that must be sold by us for the offering to proceed. The Company will retain any proceeds from the Direct Offering, while the Selling Shareholders will retain the proceeds from the Resale. The Selling Shareholders are deemed to be statutory underwriters under Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act of 1933 (“Securities Act”).

 

The selling stockholders will sell the shares of common stock at the fixed price of $0.06 per share until such time, if ever, that the common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, the OTCQX or listed on a securities exchange. Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses attributable to the sale of common stock covered by this prospectus will be borne by the selling Stockholders. We will pay all expenses (other than discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses) relating to the registration of the common stock with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Our Common Stock is currently quoted on the OTC Markets Pink under the symbol “CBGL”. On November 10, 2020, the closing price as reported was $0.06 per share. This price will fluctuate based on the demand for our Common Stock.

GENERAL MATTERS

 

Unless otherwise noted or the context indicates otherwise “we,” “us,” “our,” “Company” or “CBGL” refers to Cannabis Global, Inc., a Nevada corporation, formerly known as MCTC Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation. On December 4, 2019, a majority of the shareholders eligible to vote met in a special meeting pursuant to Sections 2.03, 2.07 and 2.11 of the Company's By-Laws, and Chapter 1, Delaware General Corporation Law § 228. The shareholders approved and authorized (i) re-domiciling the Company from Delaware to Nevada; (ii) changing the name of the Company from MCTC Holdings, Inc. to Cannabis Global, Inc.; and, (iii) seeking a corresponding change of name and new trading symbol for the Company with FINRA. Effective March 30, 2020, we filed Articles of Conversion with the Delaware Secretary of State, electing to convert and re-domicile the Company from a Delaware corporation to a newly formed Nevada corporation named Cannabis Global, Inc. Concurrently, we filed Articles of Incorporation and Articles of Domestication with the Nevada Secretary of State incorporating the Company in Nevada under the name Cannabis Global, Inc. and accepting the re-domicile of our former Delaware corporation. There is no change to our fiscal year end. On August 1, 2020, FINRA approved our name change to Cannabis Global, Inc. with a corresponding new trading symbol: “CBGL.”

CAUTIONARY NOTE TO INVESTORS

 

Our business is focused on the research and development of cannabis, hemp and hemp derived products. Hemp is a member of the cannabis family. Cannabis is a Schedule 1 illegal drug under the Controlled Substances Act, 21 U.S.C. § 811 (hereafter referred to as the “CSA”). On December 20, 2018, President Donald J. Trump signed into law the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018, otherwise known as the “Farm Bill.” Prior to its passage, hemp, and hemp derived CBD were classified, along with cannabis, as Schedule 1 controlled substances.

 

With the passage of the Farm Bill, hemp cultivation is now broadly permitted. The Farm Bill explicitly allows the transfer of hemp-derived products across state lines for commercial or other purposes. It also puts no restrictions on the sale, transport, or possession of hemp-derived products, so long as those items are produced in a manner consistent with the law. Despite the passage of the Farm Bill, hemp containing more than 0.3% THC is not included within the Farm Bill, and remains, along with cannabis, an illegal Schedule 1 drug under the CSA.

 

 

iii 
 
 

 

 

 

 

Our future business activities, including providing management services for cannabis delivery services in California, and the research and development of cannabis infused drinks, will fall outside of the Farm Bill. Currently, many U.S. states plus the District of Columbia and Guam, have laws and/or regulations that recognize, in one form or another, legitimate medical and adult uses for cannabis and consumer use of cannabis in connection with medical treatment or for recreational use. Many other states are considering similar legislation. Conversely, under the CSA, the policies and regulations of the federal government and its agencies are that cannabis has no medical benefit and a range of activities including cultivation and the personal use of cannabis is illegal and prohibited. Unless and until Congress amends the CSA with respect to cannabis, as to the timing or scope of any such potential amendments there can be no assurance, there is a risk that federal authorities may enforce current federal law, and we may be deemed to be producing, cultivating, dispensing and/or aiding or abetting the possession and distribution of cannabis in violation of federal law. Active enforcement of the current CSA on cannabis may thus directly and adversely affect our revenues and profits. The risk of strict enforcement of the CSA in light of Congressional activity, judicial holdings, and stated federal policy remains uncertain; See sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Government Regulation of Cannabis.”

 

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

 

The following summary highlights material information contained in this Prospectus. This summary does not contain all of the information you should consider before investing in the securities. Before making an investment decision, you should read the entire Prospectus carefully, including the risk factors section, the financial statements and the notes to the financial statements. You should also review the other available information referred to in the section entitled “Where You Can Find More Information” in this Prospectus and any amendment or supplement hereto.

 

Our Business and Corporate History

 

We are a research and development company primarily focused on entering a wide array of cannabis, hemp and related market sectors. Our primary objective is to create and commercialize engineered technologies delivering hemp extracts and cannabinoids to the human body. We have recently expanded our focus to include middle portions of the hemp value chain, including the licensing of our core technologies to manufacturers of hemp and hemp-related products. We also invest, or provide managerial services, in specialized areas of the regulated hemp and cannabis industries.

 

Cannabis Global, Inc. is located at 520 S. Grand Avenue, Suite 320, Los Angeles, California 90071. Our telephone number is (310) 986-4929 and our website is www.cannabisglobalinc.com. Our shares of Common Stock are quoted on the OTC Markets Pink Tier, operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc., under the ticker symbol “CBGL.”

 

We incorporated in Nevada in 2005 under the name MultiChannel Technologies Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Octillion Corporation, a development stage technology company focused on the identification, acquisition and development of emerging solar energy and solar related technologies, and related products having the potential for commercialization. In April, 2005, we changed our name to MicroChannel Technologies, Inc., and in June, 2008, began trading on the OTC Markets under the trading symbol “MCTC.” Our business focused on research and development of a patented combination of physical, chemical and biological cues at the “cellular” level to facilitate peripheral nerve regeneration.

 

In August, 2011, we ceased operations and attempted to identify, locate, and if warranted, acquire new commercial opportunities. On June 27, 2018, we changed domiciles from the State of Nevada to the State of Delaware and thereafter reorganized under the Delaware Holding Company Statute (Delaware General Corporation Law Section 251(g). On or about July 12, 2018, we formed two subsidiaries for the purpose of effecting the reorganization. We incorporated MCTC Holdings, Inc. and MCTC Holdings Inc. incorporated MicroChannel Corp. We then effected a merger involving the three constituent entities, and under the terms of the merger we were merged into MicroChannel Corp., with MicroChannel Corp. surviving and our separate corporate existence ceasing. Following the merger, MCTC Holdings, Inc. became the surviving publicly traded issuer and all of our assets and liabilities were merged into MCTC Holdings, Inc.’s wholly owned subsidiary MicroChannel Corp. Our shareholders became the shareholders of MCTC Holdings, Inc. on a one for one basis.

As separate consideration for the transaction, the Company agreed to issue to Whisper Weed $150,000 in the Company’s restricted common stock, valued for purposes of issuance based on the average closing price of the Company’s common stock for the twenty days preceding the entry into the material definitive agreement. Additionally, the Company agreed to amend its articles of incorporation to designate a new class of preferred shares.

SUMMARY FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

The following tables summarize our financial data for the periods presented and should be read together with the sections of this Prospectus entitled “Risk Factors,” “Selected Financial Data” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” as well as our financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus. We derived the summary financial information for the period ended August 31, 2020 from our audited financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus. The audited historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results we expect in the future. 

 

The Company sustained continued operating losses during the fiscal years ended August 31, 2020 and 2019. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations, in which it has not been successful, and/or obtaining additional financing from its shareholders or other sources, as may be required. 

 

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

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic, and governmental authorities around the world have implemented measures to reduce the spread of COVID-19. These measures have adversely affected workforces, customers, supply chains, consumer sentiment, economies, and financial markets, and, along with decreased consumer spending, have led to an economic downturn across many global economies.

 

The COVID-19 pandemic has rapidly escalated in the United States, creating significant uncertainty and economic disruption, and leading to record levels of unemployment nationally. Numerous state and local jurisdictions have imposed, and others in the future may impose, shelter-in-place orders, quarantines, shut-downs of non-essential businesses, and similar government orders and restrictions on their residents to control the spread of COVID-19. Such orders or restrictions have resulted in temporary facility closures (including certain of our third-party VRCs), work stoppages, slowdowns and travel restrictions, among other effects, thereby adversely impacting our operations. In addition, we expect to be impacted by a downturn in the United States economy, which could have an adverse impact on discretionary consumer spending and may have a significant impact on our business operations and/or our ability to generate revenues and profits.

In response to the COVID-19 disruptions, we have implemented a number of measures designed to protect the health and safety of our staff and contractors. These measures include restrictions on non-essential business travel, the institution of work-from-home policies wherever feasible and the implementation of strategies for workplace safety at our facilities that remain open. We are following the guidance from public health officials and government agencies, including implementation of enhanced cleaning measures, social distancing guidelines and wearing of masks.

 

The extent to which COVID-19 ultimately impacts our business, financial condition and results of operations will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and unpredictable, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity and duration of the COVID-19 outbreak and the effectiveness of actions taken to contain the COVID-19 outbreak or treat its impact, among others. Additionally, while the extent to which COVID-19 ultimately impacts our operations will depend on a number of factors, many of which will be outside of our control. The COVID-19 outbreak is evolving and new information emerges daily; accordingly, the ultimate consequences of the COVID-19 outbreak cannot be predicted with certainty.

 

In addition to the COVID-19 disruptions possibility adversely impacting our business and financial results, they may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in “Risk Factors,” including risks relating to changes due to our limited operating history; our ability to generate sufficient revenue, to generate positive cash flow; our relationships with third parties, and many other factors. We will endeavor to minimize these impacts, but there can be no assurance relative to the potential impacts that may be incurred.

 

Uncertainty of profitability

 

Our business strategy may result in meaningful volatility of revenues, loses and/or earnings. As we will only develop a limited number of business efforts, services and products at a time, our overall success will depend on a limited number of business initiatives, which may cause variability and unsteady profits and losses depending on the products and/or services offered and their market acceptance.

 

Our revenues and our profitability may be adversely affected by economic conditions and changes in the market for our products. Our business is also subject to general economic risks that could adversely impact the results of operations and financial condition.

 

Because of the anticipated nature of the products that we offer and attempt to develop, it is difficult to accurately forecast revenues and operating results and these items could fluctuate in the future due to a number of factors. These factors may include, among other things, the following:

 

  ·         Our ability to raise sufficient capital to take advantage of opportunities and generate sufficient revenues to cover expenses.
 

·         Our ability to source strong opportunities with sufficient risk adjusted returns.

·         Our ability to manage our capital and liquidity requirements based on changing market conditions.

·         The amount and timing of operating and other costs and expenses.

·         The nature and extent of competition from other companies that may reduce market share and create pressure on pricing and investment return expectations.

 

We have incurred losses since our inception, have yet to achieve profitable operations and anticipate that we will continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future.

 

Even if we obtain more customers or increase sales to our existing customers, there is no guarantee we will be able to generate a profit. Because we are a small company and have limited capital, we must limit our products and services. Because we will be limiting our marketing activities, we may not be able to attract enough customers to buy our products to operate profitably.

We do not have sufficient cash on hand.

 

As of August 31, 2020, we had $2,338 of cash on hand.  Our cash resources are not sufficient for us to execute our business plan. If we do not generate sufficient cash from our intended financing activities and sales, we will be unable to continue our operations. We estimate that within the next 12 months we will need approximately $600-840,000 in cash from either investors or operations. While we intend to engage in future financings, there is no assurance that these will actually occur. Nor can we assure our shareholders that we will not be required to obtain additional financing on terms that are dilutive of their interests. You should recognize that if we are unable to generate sufficient revenues or obtain debt or equity financing, we will not be able to earn profits and may not be able to continue operations.

 

We may not be able to continue our business as a going concern.

 

The Company's financial statements are prepared using the generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the Company has accumulated a deficit of $6,056,949 as of August 31, 2020. Management plans to raise additional capital through the sale of shares of Common Stock to pursue business development activities, but there are no assurances of success relative to the efforts.

 

If we are not able to raise enough funds, we may not be able to successfully develop and market our products and our business may fail.

 

We do not have any commitments for financing and we will need additional financing to meet our obligations and to continue our business. Although we plan to raise funds through our Public Offering, we cannot guarantee that we will be successful in such efforts.

 

Our business may suffer if we are unable to attract or retain talented personnel.

 

Our success will depend in large measure on the abilities, expertise, judgment, discretion, integrity and good faith of Management, as well as other personnel. We have a small management team, and the loss of a key individual or our inability to attract suitably qualified replacements or additional staff could adversely affect our business. Our success also depends on the ability of Management to form and maintain key commercial relationships within the marketplace. No assurance can be given that key personnel will continue their association or employment with us or that replacement personnel with comparable skills will be found. If we are unable to attract and retain key personnel and additional employees, our business may be adversely affected. We do not maintain key-man life insurance on any of our executive employees.

 

The loss of key Management personnel could adversely affect our business.

 

We depend on the continued services of our executive officer and senior consulting team as they work closely with independent associate leaders and are responsible for our day-to-day operations. Our success depends in part on our ability to retain executive officers, to compensate executive officers at attractive levels, and to continue to attract additional qualified individuals to our management team. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with our Chief Executive Officer, and do not believe our Chief Executive Officer is planning to leave or retire in the near term, we cannot assure you that our Chief Executive Officer or senior managers to be hired will remain with us. The loss or limitation of the services of any of our executives or members of our senior management team, or the inability to attract additional qualified management personnel, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, or independent associate relations.

 

The lack of available and cost-effective directors and officer’s insurance coverage in our industry may cause us to be unable to attract and retain qualified executives, and this may result in our inability to further develop our business.

 

Our business depends on attracting independent directors, executives and senior management to advance our business plans. We currently do not have directors and officer’s insurance to protect our directors, officers and the company against the possible third-party claims. This is due to the significant lack of availability of such policies in the cannabis industry at reasonably competitive prices. As a result, the Company and our executive directors and officers are susceptible to liability claims arising by third parties, and as a result, we may be unable to attract and retain qualified independent directors and executive management causing the development of our business plans to be impeded as a result.

If we fail to maintain satisfactory relationships with future customers, our business may be harmed. 

 

Due to competition or other factors, we could lose business from our future customers, either partially or completely. The future loss of one or more of our significant customers or a substantial future reduction of orders by any of our significant customers could harm our business and results of operations. Moreover, our customers may vary their order levels significantly from period to period and customers may not continue to place orders with us in the future at the same levels as in prior periods. In the event that in the future we lose any of our larger customers, we may not be able to replace that revenue source. This could harm our financial results.

 

Management of growth will be necessary for us to be competitive.

 

Successful expansion of our business will depend on our ability to effectively attract and manage staff, strategic business relationships, and shareholders. Specifically, we will need to hire skilled management and technical personnel as well as manage partnerships to navigate shifts in the general economic environment. Expansion has the potential to place significant strains on financial, management, and operational resources, yet failure to expand will inhibit our profitability goals.

 

We cannot guarantee that we will succeed in achieving our goals, and our failure to do so would have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

 

Some of business initiatives in the hemp and cannabis sectors are new and are only in the early stages of commercialization. As is typical in a new and rapidly evolving industry, demand and market acceptance for recently introduced products and services are subject to a high level of uncertainty and risk. Because the market for our Company is new and evolving, it is difficult to predict with any certainty the size of this market and its growth rate, if any. We cannot guarantee that a market for our Company will develop or that demand for our products will emerge or be sustainable. If the market fails to develop, develops more slowly than expected or becomes saturated with competitors, our business, financial condition and operating results would be materially adversely affected.

 

We are attempting to enter into several new business areas. We plan to address these new business areas with unproven technologies. Our inability to master the technical details of these new technologies could negatively impact our business.

 

We are attempting to enter several new areas of the hemp and cannabis markets, including THC remediation, the production of highly bioavailable cannabis infused drinks and the production of functional foods based on nanoparticle technologies. These businesses will require extensive technical expertise. There can be no assurances we will have the capital, personnel resources, or expertise to be successful relative to these advanced technologies.

 

Our chosen method for cannabinoid delivery is controversial with an unproven safety of efficacy.

 

The safety profile relative to oral consumption of polymeric or other forms of nanoparticles is unproven. There can be no guarantee of a proven safety profile for any of our emerging technologies.

We may be unable to respond to the rapid technological change in the industry and such change may increase costs and competition that may adversely affect our business.

 

Rapidly changing technologies, frequent new product and service introductions and evolving industry standards characterize our market. The continued growth of the Internet and intense competition in our industry exacerbates these market characteristics. Our future success will depend on our ability to adapt to rapidly changing technologies by continually improving the performance features and reliability of our products and services. We may experience difficulties that could delay or prevent the successful development, introduction or marketing of our products and services. In addition, any new enhancements must meet the requirements of our current and prospective customers and must achieve significant market acceptance. We could also incur substantial costs if we need to modify our products and services or infrastructures to adapt to these changes. We also expect that new competitors may introduce products or services that are directly or indirectly competitive with us. These competitors may succeed in developing products and services that have greater functionality or are less costly than our products and services and may be more successful in marketing such products and services. This competition could increase price competition and reduce anticipated profit margins.

 

The failure to enforce and maintain our intellectual property rights could adversely affect the value of the Company.

 

The success of our business will partially depend on our ability to protect our intellectual property. As of the date hereof, we do not have any federally registered patents or trademarks owned by us. We do have provisional patent and trademark applications pending. The unauthorized use of our intellectual property could diminish the value of our business, which would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operation.

 

We have incurred losses since our inception, have yet to achieve profitable operations and anticipate that we will continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future.

 

Even if we obtain customers, there is no guarantee that we will be able to generate a profit. Because we are a small company and have limited capital, we must limit our products and services. Because we will be limiting our marketing activities, we may not be able to attract enough customers to buy our products to operate profitably. Further, we are subject to raw material pricing which can erode the profitability of our products and put additional negative pressure on profitability. If we cannot operate profitably, we may have to suspend or cease operations.

 

For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2020 we incurred an operating loss of $3,623,892. For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, we incurred an operating loss of $549,918. At August 31, 2020 we had an accumulated deficit of $6,056,949. Although we anticipate generating revenue in future periods, such revenues may be insufficient to make the Company profitable. We plan to increase our expenses associated with the development of our business. There is no assurance we will be able to derive revenues from the development of our business to successfully achieve positive cash flow or that our business will be successful. If we achieve profitability, we may be unable to sustain or increase profits on a quarterly or annual basis.

 

We are reliant on single source suppliers for several components of our products. In the future, such supplies could be difficult or impossible to obtain, which would affect our ability to produce our products.

 

We purchase components for our products from several larger corporations and from single source providers. Any difficulty in obtaining such supplies could restrict our ability to manufacture products for sales, which would affect our ability to generate revenues. There can be no assurances such suppliers of the components we require will not become difficult or impossible to obtain in the future.

RISKS OF GOVERNMENT ACTION AND REGULATORY UNCERTAINTY

 

We could be found to be violating laws related to cannabis.

 

Our future business activities, including providing management services for cannabis delivery services in California, and the research and development of cannabis infused drinks, will fall outside of the Farm Bill. Currently, many U.S. states plus the District of Columbia and Guam, have laws and/or regulations that recognize, in one form or another, legitimate medical and adult uses for cannabis and consumer use of cannabis in connection with medical treatment or for recreational use. Many other states are considering similar legislation. Conversely, under the CSA, the policies and regulations of the federal government and its agencies are that cannabis has no medical benefit and a range of activities including cultivation and the personal use of cannabis is illegal and prohibited. Unless and until Congress amends the CSA with respect to cannabis, as to the timing or scope of any such potential amendments there can be no assurance, there is a risk that federal authorities may enforce current federal law, and we may be deemed to be producing, cultivating, dispensing and/or aiding or abetting the possession and distribution of cannabis in violation of federal law. Active enforcement of the current CSA on cannabis may thus directly and adversely affect our revenues and profits.

 

The Farm Bill recently passed, and undeveloped shared state-federal regulations over hemp cultivation and production may impact our business. 

 

The Farm Bill was signed into law on December 20, 2018. Under Section 10113 of the Farm Bill, state departments of agriculture must consult with the state’s governor and chief law enforcement officer to devise a plan that must be submitted to the Secretary of USDA. A state’s plan to license and regulate hemp can only commence once the Secretary of USDA approves that state’s plan. In states opting not to devise a hemp regulatory program, USDA will need to construct a regulatory program under which hemp cultivators in those states must apply for licenses and comply with a federally-run program. The details and scopes of each state’s plans are not known at this time and may contain varying regulations that may impact our business. Even if a state creates a plan in conjunction with its governor and chief law enforcement officer, the Secretary of the USDA must approve it. There can be no guarantee that any state plan will be approved. Review times may be extensive. There may be amendments and the ultimate plans, if approved by the states and the USDA, may materially limit our business depending upon the scope of the regulations.

 

Laws and regulations affecting our industry to be developed under the Farm Bill are in development. 

 

As a result of the Farm Bill’s recent passage, there will be a constant evolution of laws and regulations affecting the hemp industry that could detrimentally affect our operations. Local, state and federal hemp laws and regulations may be broad in scope and subject to changing interpretations. These changes may require us to incur substantial costs associated with legal and compliance fees and ultimately require us to alter our business plan. Furthermore, violations of these laws, or alleged violations, could disrupt our business and result in a material adverse effect on our operations. In addition, we cannot predict the nature of any future laws, regulations, interpretations or applications, and it is possible that regulations may be enacted in the future that will be directly applicable to our business.

 

11 
 
 

The approach to the enforcement of cannabis laws may be subject to change, which creates uncertainty for our business.

 

As a result of the conflicting views between state legislatures and the federal government regarding cannabis, as not strictly defined in the 2018 Farm Bill, investments in, and the operations of, cannabis businesses in the U.S. are subject to inconsistent laws and regulations. Laws and regulations affecting the cannabis industry are constantly changing, which could detrimentally affect our operations. Local, state and federal cannabis laws and regulations are broad in scope and subject to evolving interpretations, which could require us to incur substantial costs associated with compliance or alter our business plan. In addition, violations of these laws, or allegations of such violations, could disrupt our business and result in a material adverse effect on our operations. It is also possible that regulations may be enacted in the future that will be directly applicable to our business. These ever-changing regulations could even affect federal tax policies that may make it difficult to claim tax deductions on our returns. We cannot predict the nature of any future laws, regulations, interpretations or applications, nor can we determine what effect additional governmental regulations or administrative policies and procedures, when and if promulgated, could have on our business. 

 

The possible FDA Regulation of hemp and industrial hemp derived CBD, and the possible registration of facilities where hemp is grown and CBD products are produced, if implemented, could negatively affect the cannabis industry generally, which could directly affect our financial condition.

 

The Farm Bill established that hemp containing less the 0.3% THC was no longer a Schedule 1 drug under the CSA. Previously, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) did not approve hemp or CBD derived from hemp as a safe and effective drug for any indication. The FDA considered hemp and hemp-derived CBD as illegal Schedule 1 drugs. Further, the FDA has concluded that products containing hemp or CBD derived from hemp are excluded from the dietary supplement definition under sections 201(ff)(3)(B)(i) and (ii) of the U.S. Food, Drug & Cosmetic Act, respectively. However, as a result of the passage of the Farm Bill, at some indeterminate future time, the FDA may choose to change its position concerning products containing hemp, or CBD derived from hemp, and may choose to enact regulations that are applicable to such products, including, but not limited to: the growth, cultivation, harvesting and processing of hemp; regulations covering the physical facilities where hemp is grown; and possible testing to determine efficacy and safety of hemp derived CBD. In this hypothetical event, our powdered drink products, which we plan to introduce will likely contain CBD and may be subject to regulation. In the hypothetical event that some or all of these regulations are imposed, we do not know what the impact would be on the hemp industry in general, and what costs, requirements and possible prohibitions may be enforced. If we are unable to comply with the conditions and possible costs of possible regulations and/or registration, as may be prescribed by the FDA, we may be unable to continue to operate segments of our business. 

 

The scheduling status of Tetrahydrocannabivarin (THC-V) and other cannabinoids with the Drug Enforcement Administration is uncertain.

 

During August of 2020, Drug Enforcement Administration (the “DEA”) issued a rule regarding the scheduling of hemp and marijuana. The ruling could affect our ability to successfully market our THC-V beverage line.

 

Should the DEA determine the manufactured cannabinoids we use in some of our products are scheduled under the CSA, our future business opportunities could be negatively impacted.

 

The Company is currently working with the supplier of THC-V to determine the impact, if any, the ruling may have on our ability to market THC-V products.

 

The DEA published the following summary:

 

The purpose of this interim final rule is to codify in the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) regulations and statutory amendments to the Controlled Substances Act (CSA) made by the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018 (AIA), regarding the scope of regulatory controls over marihuana, tetrahydrocannabinols, and other marihuana-related constituents. This interim final rule merely conforms DEA's regulations to the statutory amendments to the CSA that have already taken effect, and it does not add additional requirements to the regulations.

 

12 
 
 

The Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018, Public Law 115-334 (the AIA), was signed into law on December 20, 2018. It provided a new statutory definition of “hemp” and amended the definition of marihuana under 21 U.S.C. 802(16) and the listing of tetrahydrocannabinols under 21 U.S.C. 812(c). The AIA thereby amends the regulatory controls over marihuana, tetrahydrocannabinols, and other marihuana-related constituents in the Controlled Substances Act (CSA).

 

The rulemaking makes four conforming changes to DEA's existing regulations:

 

  It modifies 21 CFR 1308.11(d)(31) by adding language stating that the definition of “Tetrahydrocannabinols” does not include “any material, compound, mixture, or preparation that falls within the definition of hemp set forth in 7 U.S.C. 1639 o.

 

  It removes from control in schedule V under 21 CFR 1308.15(f) a “drug product in finished dosage formulation that has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration that contains cannabidiol (2-[1R-3-methyl-6R-(1-methylethenyl)-2-cyclohexen-1-yl]-5-pentyl-1,3-benzenediol) derived from cannabis and no more than 0.1% (w/w) residual tetrahydrocannabinols.”

 

  It also removes the import and export controls described in 21 CFR 1312.30(b) over those same substances.

 

  It modifies 21 CFR 1308.11(d)(58) by stating that the definition of “Marihuana Extract” is limited to extracts “containing greater than 0.3 percent delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol on a dry weight basis.”

 

According to the DEA, the AIA does not impact the control status of synthetically derived tetrahydrocannabinols (for Controlled Substance Code Number 7370) because the statutory definition of “hemp” is limited to materials that are derived from the plant Cannabis sativa L. For synthetically derived tetrahydrocannabinols, the concentration of Δ9-THC is not a determining factor in whether the material is a controlled substance. All synthetically derived tetrahydrocannabinols remain schedule I controlled substances.

 

We could become subject to other FDA regulations.

 

The cannabinoid delivery technologies we are developing could at a later date become subject to increased government regulation. Such additional regulations and could have an adverse effect on our business operations.

 

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH BANK AND INSURANCE LAWS AND REGULATIONS

 

We and our customers may have difficulty accessing the service of banks, which may make it difficult to sell our products and services and manage our cash flows.

 

Since the commerce in cannabis, as not strictly defined in the 2018 Farm Bill, is illegal under federal law, federally most chartered banks will not accept deposit funds from businesses involved with cannabis. Consequently, businesses involved in the cannabis industry often have trouble finding a bank willing to accept their business. The inability to open bank accounts may make it difficult for our customers to operate. There does appear to be recent movement to allow state-chartered banks and credit unions to provide banking to the industry, but as of the date of this report there are only nominal entities that have been formed that offer these services. Further, in a February 6, 2018, Forbes article, United States Secretary of the Treasury, Steven Mnuchin, is reported to have testified that his department is “reviewing the existing guidance.” But he clarified that he doesn’t want to rescind it without having an alternate policy in place to address public safety concerns.

 

Financial transactions involving proceeds generated by cannabis-related conduct can form the basis for prosecution under the federal money laundering statutes, unlicensed money transmitter statute and the U.S. Bank Secrecy Act. Despite guidance from the U.S. Department of the Treasury suggesting it may be possible for financial institutions to provide services to cannabis-related businesses consistent with their obligations under the Bank Secrecy Act, banks remain hesitant to offer banking services to cannabis-related businesses. Consequently, those businesses involved in the cannabis industry continue to encounter difficulty establishing banking relationships. Our inability to maintain our current bank accounts would make it difficult for us to operate our business, increase our operating costs, and pose additional operational, logistical and security challenges and could result in our inability to implement our business plan. Similarly, many of our customers are directly involved in cannabis sales and further restrictions to their ability to access banking services may make it difficult for them to purchase our products, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

 

13 
 
 

 

We are subject to certain federal regulations relating to cash reporting.

 

The Bank Secrecy Act, enforced by FinCEN, requires us to report currency transactions in excess of $10,000, including identification of the customer by name and social security number, to the IRS. This regulation also requires us to report certain suspicious activity, including any transaction that exceeds $5,000 that we know, suspect or have reason to believe involves funds from illegal activity or is designed to evade federal regulations or reporting requirements and to verify sources of funds. Substantial penalties can be imposed against us if we fail to comply with this regulation. If we fail to comply with these laws and regulations, the imposition of a substantial penalty could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Due to our involvement in the cannabis industry, we may have a difficult time obtaining the various insurances that are desired to operate our business, which may expose us to additional risk and financial liability.

 

Insurance that is otherwise readily available, such as general liability, and directors and officer’s insurance, is more difficult for us to find, and more expensive, because we are service providers to companies in the cannabis industry. There are no guarantees that we will be able to find such insurance(s) in the future, or that the cost will be affordable to us. If we are forced to go without such insurance(s), it may prevent us from entering into certain business sectors, may inhibit our growth, and may expose us to additional risk and financial liabilities

 

RISK ASSOCIATED WITH OUR INDUSTRY

 

Our Business Can be Affected by Unusual Weather Patterns.

 

Hemp and cannabis cultivation can be impacted by weather patterns and these unpredictable weather patterns may impact our ability to harvest hemp. In addition, severe weather, including drought and hail, can destroy a hemp crop, which could result in us having no hemp to harvest, process and sell. If suppliers are unable to obtain sufficient hemp from which to process CBD, our ability to meet customer demand, generate sales, and maintain operations will be impacted.

 

Our business and financial performance may be adversely affected by downturns in the target markets that we serve or reduced demand for the types of products we sell. 

 

Demand for our products is often affected by general economic conditions as well as product-use trends in our target markets. These changes may result in decreased demand for our products. The occurrence of these conditions is beyond our ability to control and, when they occur, they may have a significant impact on our sales and results of operations. The inability or unwillingness of our customers to pay a premium for our products due to general economic conditions or a downturn in the economy may have a significant adverse impact on our sales and results of operations.

 

Changes within the cannabis industry may adversely affect our financial performance. 

 

Changes in the identity, ownership structure and strategic goals of our competitors and the emergence of new competitors in our target markets may harm our financial performance. New competitors may include foreign-based companies and commodity-based domestic producers who could enter our specialty markets if they are unable to compete in their traditional markets. The paper industry has also experienced consolidation of producers and distribution channels. Further consolidation could unite other producers with distribution channels through which we intend to sell our products, thereby limiting access to our target markets.

 

 

14 
 
 

 

We may be subject to certain tax risks and treatments that could negatively impact our results of operations.

 

Section 280E of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, prohibits businesses from deducting certain expenses associated with trafficking-controlled substances (within the meaning of Schedule I and II of the Controlled Substances Act). The IRS has invoked Section 280E in tax audits against various cannabis businesses in the U.S. that are permitted under applicable state laws. Although the IRS issued a clarification allowing the deduction of certain expenses, the scope of such items is interpreted very narrowly, and the bulk of operating costs and general administrative costs are not permitted to be deducted. While there are currently several pending cases before various administrative and federal courts challenging these restrictions, there is no guarantee that these courts will issue an interpretation of Section 280E favorable to cannabis businesses.

 

The Company’s industry is highly competitive, and we have less capital and resources than many of our competitors which may give them an advantage in developing and marketing products similar to ours or make our products obsolete.

 

We are involved in a highly competitive industry where we may compete with numerous other companies who offer alternative methods or approaches, who may have far greater resources, more experience, and personnel perhaps more qualified than we do. Such resources may give our competitors an advantage in developing and marketing products similar to ours or products that make our products less desirable to consumers or obsolete. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully compete against these other entities.

 

We may be unable to respond to the rapid technological change in the industry and such change may increase costs and competition that may adversely affect our business.

 

Rapidly changing technologies, frequent new product and service introductions and evolving industry standards characterize our market. The continued growth of the Internet and intense competition in our industry exacerbates these market characteristics. Our future success will depend on our ability to adapt to rapidly changing technologies by continually improving the performance features and reliability of our products. We may experience difficulties that could delay or prevent the successful development, introduction or marketing of our products. In addition, any new enhancements must meet the requirements of our current and prospective customers and must achieve significant market acceptance. We could also incur substantial costs if we need to modify our products and services or infrastructures to adapt to these changes.

 

We also expect that new competitors may introduce products or services that are directly or indirectly competitive with us. These competitors may succeed in developing products and services that have greater functionality or are less costly than our products and services and may be more successful in marketing such products and services. Technological changes have lowered the cost of operating, communications and computer systems and purchasing software. These changes reduce our cost of selling products and providing services, but also facilitate increased competition by reducing competitors’ costs in providing similar products and services. This competition could increase price competition and reduce anticipated profit margins.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK

 

 We may need additional capital that will dilute the ownership interest of investors.

 

We may require additional capital to fund our future business operations. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of equity, equity-related or convertible debt securities, these securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the rights of holders of our shares of common stock, who may experience dilution of their ownership interest of our shares of Common Stock. We cannot predict whether additional financing will be available to us on favorable terms when required, or at all. Since our inception, we have experienced negative cash flow from operations and expect to experience significant negative cash flow from operations in the future. The issuance of additional shares of Common Stock by our board of directors may have the effect of further diluting the proportionate equity interest and voting power of holders of our shares of Common Stock.

 

Our shares of Common Stock qualify as a penny stock. As such, we are subject to the risks associated with "penny stocks". Regulations relating to "penny stocks" limit the ability of our shareholders to sell their shares and, as a result, our shareholders may have to hold their shares indefinitely.

 

Our shares of Common Stock are deemed to be "penny stock" as that term is defined in Regulation Section 240.3a51-1 of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Penny stocks are stocks: (a) with a price of less than $5.00 per share; (b) that are not traded on a "recognized" national exchange; (c) whose prices are not quoted on the NASDAQ automated quotation system (NASDAQ - where listed stocks must still meet requirement (a) above); or (d) in issuers with net tangible assets of less than $2,000,000 (if the issuer has been in continuous operation for at least three years) or $5,000,000 (if in continuous operation for less than three years), or with average revenues of less than $6,000,000 for the last three years.

 

Section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Regulation 240.15g(c)2 of the Securities and Exchange Commission require broker dealers dealing in penny stocks to provide potential investors with a document disclosing the risks of penny stocks and to obtain a manually signed and dated written receipt of the document before effecting any transaction in a penny stock for the investor's account. Potential investors in our shares of Common Stock are urged to obtain and read such disclosure carefully before purchasing any shares of Common Stock that are deemed to be "penny stock".

 

Moreover, Regulation 240.15g-9 of the SEC requires broker dealers in penny stocks to approve the account of any investor for transactions in such stocks before selling any penny stock to that investor. This procedure requires the broker dealer to: (a) obtain from the investor information concerning his or her financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives; (b) reasonably determine, based on that information, that transactions in penny stocks are suitable for the investor and that the investor has sufficient knowledge and experience as to be reasonably capable of evaluating the risks of penny stock transactions; (c) provide the investor with a written statement setting forth the basis on which the broker dealer made the determination in (ii) above; and (d) receive a signed and dated copy of such statement from the investor confirming that it accurately reflects the investor's financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives. Compliance with these requirements may make it more difficult for investors in our shares of Common Stock to resell their shares to third parties or to otherwise dispose of them. Holders should be aware that, according to SEC Release No. 34-29093, dated April 17, 1991, the market for penny stocks suffers from patterns of fraud and abuse.

 

Our Management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock market. Although we do not expect to be in a position to dictate the behavior of the market or of broker-dealers who participate in the market, Management will strive within the confines of practical limitations to prevent the described patterns from being established with respect to our securities.

 

We will be controlled by existing shareholders.

 

Our directors and officers currently in place control a significant portion of our shares and have super voting rights relative to preferred shares. Thus, they will continue to oversee the Company’s operations. As a result, our directors and officers will likely have a significant influence on the affairs and management of the Company, as well as on all matters requiring stockholder approval, including electing and removing members of its board of directors, causing the Company to engage in transactions with affiliated entities, causing or restricting the sale or merger of the Company and changing the company’s dividend policy. Such concentration of ownership and control could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of the Company, even when such a change of control would be in the best interests of the company’s other stockholders.

We have the ability to issue additional shares of our shares of preferred stock without asking for stockholder approval, which could cause your investment to be diluted.

 

Our Articles of Incorporation authorizes the Board of Directors to issue up to 290,000,000 shares of Common Stock. The power of the Board of Directors to issue shares of Common Stock, preferred stock or warrants or options to purchase shares of Common Stock or preferred stock is generally not subject to stockholder approval. Accordingly, any additional issuance of our shares of Common Stock, or shares of preferred stock that may be convertible into Common Stock, may have the effect of diluting your investment. Currently authorized are ten million (10,000,000) shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company Preferred Stock in one or more series, and expressly authorized the Board of Directors of the Company, subject to limitations prescribed by law, to provide, out of the unissued shares of Preferred Stock, for series of Preferred Stock, and, with respect to each such series, to establish and fix the number of shares to be included in any series of Preferred Stock and the designation, rights, preferences, powers, restrictions, and limitations of the shares of such series. On December 16, 2019, the Board of Directors authorized the issuance of eight million (8,000,000) preferred shares as “Series A Preferred Stock.” The Series A Preferred Stock is not convertible into any other form of Securities, including common shares, of the Company. Holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to fifty (50) votes for every Share of Series A Preferred Stock beneficially owned as of the record date for any shareholder vote or written consent. On May 28, 2020, Mr. Robert L. Hymers III, a former director and former chief financial officer, returned 2,000,000 Series A Preferred shares to the corporate treasury. As of the date of this filing, there were 6,000,000 Series A Preferred shares issued and outstanding.

 

FINRA sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock and to deposit certificates in paper form or to clear shares for trading under Safe Harbor exemptions and regulations for unregistered shares.

 

In addition to the “penny stock” rules described above, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (known as “FINRA”) has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low-priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker- dealers to recommend that their customers buy our shares of Common Stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for our investors to deposit paper stock certificates or to clear our shares of Common Stock that are transferred electronically to brokerage accounts. There can be no assurances that our investors will be able to clear our shares for eventual resale.

 

Costs and expenses of being a reporting company under the 1934 Securities Exchange Act may be burdensome and prevent us from achieving profitability.

 

As a public company, we are subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and parts of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We expect that the requirements of these rules and regulations will continue to increase our legal, accounting and financial compliance costs, make some activities more difficult, time-consuming and costly, and place significant strain on our personnel, systems and resources.

Since our shares of Common Stock is thinly traded it is more susceptible to extreme rises or declines in price, and you may not be able to sell your shares at or above the price paid.

 

Since our shares of Common Stock are thinly traded its trading price is likely to be highly volatile and could be subject to extreme fluctuations in response to various factors, many of which are beyond our control, including (but not necessarily limited to): the trading volume of our shares, the number of analysts, market-makers and brokers following our shares of Common Stock, new products or services introduced or announced by us or our competitors, actual or anticipated variations in quarterly operating results, conditions or trends in our business industries, additions or departures of key personnel, sales of our shares of Common Stock and general stock market price and volume fluctuations of publicly traded, and particularly microcap, companies.

 

Investors may have difficulty reselling shares of our Common Stock, either at or above the price they paid for our stock, or even at fair market value. The stock markets often experience significant price and volume changes that are not related to the operating performance of individual companies, and because our shares of Common Stock are thinly traded it is particularly susceptible to such changes. These broad market changes may cause the market price of our shares of Common Stock to decline regardless of how well we perform as a company. In addition, there is a history of securities class action litigation following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities. Although there is no such litigation currently pending or threatened against us, such a suit against us could result in the incursion of substantial legal fees, potential liabilities and the diversion of management’s attention and resources from our business. Moreover, and as noted below, our shares are currently traded on the OTC Markets Pink and, further, are subject to the penny stock regulations. Price fluctuations in such shares are particularly volatile and subject to potential manipulation by market-makers, short-sellers and option traders.

 

We do not expect to pay any dividends on our common stock.

 

We do not anticipate that we will pay any cash dividends to holders of our common stock in the foreseeable future. Instead, we plan to retain any earnings to maintain and expand our existing operations. Accordingly, investors must rely on sales of their common stock after price appreciation, which may never occur, as the only way to realize any return on their investment.

 

We are involved in litigation, the outcome of which could affect the value of our common shares.

 

On November 22, 2019, the Company filed suit against Jeet Sidhru and Jatinder Bhogal in the District Court of Clark County Nevada, Case number A-19-805943-C. Mr. Sidhru and Mr. Bhogal were formerly directors and officers of the Company. The Company’s complaint alleges that Mr. Sidhru and Mr. Bhogal breached their fiduciary duties to the Company, including their fiduciary duties of due care, good faith and loyalty, by recklessly and intentionally failing to maintain the Company’s statutory corporate filings with the State of Nevada, OTC Markets and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and abandoning the Company and its shareholders. The Company’s complaint also alleges that Mr. Sidhru and Mr. Bhogal engaged in conflicted transactions involving the Company, in which each were unjustly enriched. The Company served Mr. Bhogal, and received notice of representation of both defendants. The case is currently in its early phase, as neither defendant has answered the complaint. The outcome of this suit againt Mr. Bhogal and Mr. Sidjru is uncertain. If the Company were unable to prevail in the suit, the value of the common shares and the overall value of the Company could be negatively affected.

Our existing directors, executive officers and principal stockholders will continue to have substantial control over us after this offering, which could limit your ability to influence the outcome of key transactions, including a change of control.

 

After this offering our directors, executive officer, principal stockholders and their affiliates will beneficially own or control, directly or indirectly, a significant majority of our shares. As a result, these stockholders, acting together, could have significant influence over the outcome of matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the election or removal of directors, any amendments to our certificate of incorporation or bylaws and any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets, and over the management and affairs of our company. This concentration of ownership may also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of our company or discouraging others from making tender offers for our shares and might affect the market price of our common stock.

 

Because we do not expect to pay any dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future, investors in this offering may never receive a return on their investment.

USE OF PROCEEDS

  

We will receive proceeds from any sale of the shares of Common Stock under the Public Offering. We estimate that the net proceeds to us from the sale of our common stock in the Public Offering will be approximately $600,000 on a fixed offering price of $0.06 per share and assuming the Company sells all of the shares in the Offering.

 

We estimate our total offering registration costs to be approximately $524.66 and our legal and auditor related fees will be $6,000 equaling at total expense to the Company of $6,524.66 relating to the registration, which will be paid from existing corporate funds, thus not affecting the proceeds of this offering.

 

Proceeds from the Public Offering will be used for general working capital, purchase of capital equipment to enter new business areas and research and development, and to pay outstanding debt, as set forth below. We intend to use none of the net proceeds of this offering to repay outstanding debt. The table below reflects the gross amounts of the Offering prior to the expenses of $6,524.66, disclosed above.

 

Percentage of Offering Shares Sold   100%     75%     50%     25%  
                         
Debt Repayment   $ 200,000     $ 150,000     $ 100,000     $ 50,000  
                                 
Accounting, Audit, Transfer Agent, Edgar Agent, and Other Fees associated with being a publicly traded company   $ 100,000     $ 50,000     $ 50,000     $ 25,000  
                                 
Equipment   $ 100,000     $ 100,000     $ 50,000     $ 25,000

Working Capital   $ 250,000     $ 175,000     $ 125,000     $ 25,500  
                                 
Total Use of Proceeds   $ 800,000     $ 600,000     $ 400,000     $ 200,000  

 

 

The Company anticipates the estimated $600,000 gross proceeds from the Maximum Offering will enable it to continue its research and development effort, launch product lines and fund its other capital needs for the next fiscal year.

 

In the event that the Maximum Offering is not completed, the Company will likely be required to seek additional financing as the Company needs a minimum of approximately $600,000 in gross proceeds to implement its stated business plan and support its operations over the next twelve months. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available when needed, and, if available, that it will be on terms acceptable to the Company.

  2) The offer and sale from time to time of up to 10,000,000 of the Company’s common shares by the Company. We intend to offer and sell these shares through our officers and directors who will receive no compensation or fees with the offers and/or sales. The 10,000,000 shares being offered by the Company will represent approximately 26.7% of the 37,314,845 shares of Common Stock issued as of the date immediately preceding this Prospectus

 

  3) The total of 11,000,000 shares included in this Offering, including the 1,000,000 shares being offered by the Selling Shareholders and the 10,000,000 common shares offered by the Company will represent approximately 29.5% of our shares of Common Stock issued and as of the date immediately preceding this Prospectus.

DIVIDEND POLICY

 

We have not declared or paid dividends on our common stock since our formation, and we do not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future. Declaration or payment of dividends, if any, in the future, will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on our then current financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors. There are no contractual restrictions on our ability to declare or pay dividends. Consequently, you will only realize an economic gain on your investment in our common stock if the price appreciates. You should not purchase our common stock expecting to receive cash dividends. Since we do not anticipate paying dividends, and if we are not successful in establishing an orderly public trading market for our shares, then you may not have any manner to liquidate or receive any payment on your investment. Therefore, our failure to pay dividends may cause you to not see any return on your investment even if we are successful in our business operations. In addition, because we may not pay dividends in the foreseeable future, we may have trouble raising additional funds which could affect our ability to expand our business operations.

The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks.” Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver to the prospective purchaser a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Securities and Exchange Commission that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from such rules; the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the prospective purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. Furthermore, subsequent to a transaction in a penny stock, the broker-dealer will be required to deliver monthly or quarterly statements containing specific information about the penny stock. It is anticipated that our common stock will be traded on the OTC Pink at a price of less than $5.00. In this event, broker-dealers would be required to comply with the disclosure requirements mandated by the penny stock rules. These disclosure requirements will likely make it more difficult for investors in this offering to sell their common stock in the secondary market.

 

Upon our being notified in writing by a Selling Security Holder that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of our common stock through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, a post-effective amendment to this prospectus will be filed, if required, pursuant to Rule 462(c) under the Securities Act, disclosing (i) the name of each such Selling Security Holder and of the participating broker-dealer(s), (ii) the number of shares involved, (iii) the price at which such shares of our common stock were sold, (iv)the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such broker-dealer(s). In addition, upon our being notified in writing by a Selling Security Holder that a donee or pledgee intends to sell more than 500 shares of our common stock, a post-effective amendment to this prospectus will be filed if then required in accordance with applicable securities law.

 

Prior to any involvement of any broker-dealer in the offering, such broker-dealer must seek and obtain clearance of the underwriting compensation and arrangements from FINRA.

 

The Selling Security Holders also may transfer the shares of our common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

 

The Selling Security Holders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, that can be attributed to the sale of Securities will be paid by the Selling Security Holder and/or the purchasers. Each Selling Security Holder has represented and warranted to us that it acquired the securities subject to this prospectus in the ordinary course of such Selling Security Holders business and, at the time of its purchase of such securities such Selling Security Holder had no agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute any such securities. 

 

We have advised each Selling Security Holder that it may not use shares registered on this prospectus to cover short sales of our common stock made prior to the date on which this prospectus shall have been declared effective by the Commission. If a Selling Security Holder uses this prospectus for any sale of our common stock, it will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The Selling Security Holders will be responsible to comply with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations there under promulgated, including, without limitation, Regulation M, as applicable to such Selling Security Holders in connection with resales of their respective shares under this prospectus.

 

We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares. We have agreed to indemnify the Selling Security Holders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

 

All sales by the Company to the public through direct Primary Offering will be issued directly from the Company to the subscriber as a proceeds-generating offering for the Company.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions Concerning the Underwriter

 

On July 1, 2019, the Company acquired Action Nutraceuticals, Inc., a company owned by our CEO, Arman Tabatabaei. The value of the transaction value was nominal, at only one thousand dollars ($1,000). Therefore, the Company believes its acquisition of Action Nutraceuticals, Inc. is not an acquisition of a significant amount of assets, or a transaction defined by 17 CFR § 229.404 \- (Item 404) “Transactions with Related Persons, Promoters and Certain Control Persons” that would require specific disclosure under the section cited.

 

During the three months ended February 29, 2020, the Company issued a convertible promissory note having an aggregate principal amount of $133,101 in exchange for accrued expenses owed to related parties, of which $79,333 is payable to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer The note matures two years from the respective issuance date and bear interest at the rate of 10% per annum, payable at maturity. The noteholder shall have the right to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid principal balance of the note, at any time, into shares of common stock of the Company at a variable conversion price of 50% of the average of the previous twenty (20) trading day closing prices of the Company’s common stock, subject to adjustment. As a result of the variable conversion prices, upon issuance, the Company recognized total debt discount of $133,101, which is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the notes. On May 22, 2020, Mr. Tabatabaei converted the principal amount of $79,333 and interest of $2,608, for a total amount of $81,941.55 into 694,902 common shares.

 

Regardless, the Company will disclose the transaction pursuant to 17 CFR § 229.404 - (Item 404) “Transactions with Related Persons, Promoters and Certain Control Persons.” No intellectual property, patents or trademarks were acquired in the transaction.

We are a research and development company commercializing proprietary hemp extract infusion technologies. We also invest, or provide managerial services, in specialized areas of the regulated cannabis industry.

 

The Company was incorporated on February 28, 2005 in Nevada as MultiChannel Technologies, Inc. (“MultiChannel”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Octillion Corp. (“Octillion”), a Canadian corporation traded on the OTC Markets under the symbol “OCTL”. On April 4, 2005, MultiChannel changed its name to MicroChannel Technologies Corporation (“MicroChannel”).

 

On June 24, 2008, MicroChannel announced that it initiated trading of its stocks on the OTC Bulletin Board under the stock symbol “MCTC”.

 

On or about June 27, 2018, we changed domiciles from the State of Nevada to the State of Delaware and thereafter reorganized under Section 251(g) of the Delaware General Corporation Law. On or about July 12, 2018, we formed two subsidiaries for the purpose of effecting a reorganization. We incorporated MCTC Holdings, Inc. and MCTC Holdings Inc. incorporated MicroChannel Corp. We then effected a merger involving the three constituents and under the terms of the merger we were merged into MicroChannel Corp., with MicroChannel Corp. surviving, and our separate corporate existence ceasing. Following the merger, MCTC Holdings, Inc. became the surviving publicly traded issuer, and all of our assets and liabilities were merged into MCTC Holdings, Inc.’s wholly owned subsidiary MicroChannel Corp. Our shareholders became the shareholders of MCTC Holdings, Inc. on a one for one basis.

 

On July 1, 2019, the Company entered into a 100% business acquisition with Action Nutraceuticals, Inc., a company owned by our CEO, Arman Tabatabaei in exchange for $1,000 (see “Related Party Transactions”).

Industry Overview

 

Industrial Hemp

 

The market for hemp and cannabis, and for products based on extracts of hemp and cannabis, is expected to grow substantially over the coming years. Arcview Market Research and BDS Analytics are forecasting the combined market to reach nearly $45 billion within the U.S. in the year 2024. While much of this market is expected to be comprised of high potency THC-based products sold in licensed dispensaries, the research firms are still predicting the market for the product areas of low THC cannabinoids, THC-free Cannabinoids and pharmaceutical cannabinoids, respectively to grow to $5.3 billion, $12.6 billion, and $2.2 billion by 2024.

Industrial Hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) has been cultivated by humans for thousands of years. Hemp was originally cultivated as a source of fibers with most of this early cultivation occurring in temperate climates, thus most genotypes had very low tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) content. Hemp was introduced into North America in the early part of the 17th century and it played an important part in early American agriculture throughout the 18th and 19th centuries, with cultivation in virtually every one of the original American colonies.

 

Hemp seed oil became an important industrial input that was used in inks, paints, varnishes and many other products. The proliferation of cotton cultivation and the significant profitability of tobacco cultivation in the mid-1800s led to a sharp decline in hemp production. From the mid 1800s through the pre-World War II period, hemp cultivation continued at relatively low levels. During World War II, hemp production increased to meet the military needs for fibers to support various industrial production.

  

The early 1930’s was a period when higher THC strains of cannabis native to southeast Asia were introduced to North America and Western Europe and as a result, psychoactive strains became associated with very low THC containing industrial strains that were being cultivated in North America. This resulted in efforts to prohibit the cultivation and possession of Cannabis sativa L. in the United States.

 

Since 1937, Cannabis sativa L. has been a federally regulated Schedule I drug under the Controlled Substances Act, 21 U.S.C. § 811 (the “CSA”), regulated by the Drug Enforcement Agency (the “DEA”).

 

It was not until 2014 when a distinction between the use of Cannabis sativa L. for medical, recreational, and industrial purposes was made via Section 7606 of the Agricultural Act of 2014, which cleared a legal path for industrial hemp to be grown in three limited circumstances, 1) by researchers at an institute of higher education, 2) by state departments of agriculture, or 3) by farmers participating in a research program permitted and overseen by a state department of agriculture.

 

In 2016 the DEA, U.S. Department of Agriculture, and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a joint statement detailing the guidelines for growth of industrial hemp as part of state-sanctioned research programs. Those guidelines state that hemp can only be sold in states with pilot programs, plants and seeds can only cross state lines as part of permitted state research programs, and seeds can only be imported by individuals registered with the DEA.

 

We believe the recent passage of the 2018 Farm Bill will allow the Company to expand its marketplace opportunities. On December 20, 2018, President Donald J. Trump signed into law the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018, otherwise known as the “Farm Bill”. Prior to its passage, hemp, a member of the cannabis family, and hemp-derived CBD were classified as a Schedule I controlled substances, and so illegal under the CSA. With the passage of the Farm Bill, hemp cultivation is broadly permitted. The Farm Bill explicitly allows the transfer of hemp-derived products across state lines for commercial or other purposes. It also puts no restrictions on the sale, transport, or possession of hemp-derived products, so long as those items are produced in a manner consistent with the law.

 

Under Section 10113 of the Farm Bill, hemp cannot contain more than 0.3 percent THC. THC refers to the chemical compound found in cannabis that produces the psychoactive “high” associated with cannabis. Any cannabis plant that contains more than 0.3 percent THC would be considered non-hemp cannabis—or marijuana—under federal law and would thus face no legal protection under this new legislation and would be an illegal Schedule 1 drug under the CSA.

 

33 
 
 

Additionally, there will be significant, shared state-federal regulatory power over hemp cultivation and production. Under Section 10113 of the Farm Bill, state departments of agriculture must consult with the state’s governor and chief law enforcement officer to devise a plan that must be submitted to the Secretary of the United States Department of Agriculture (hereafter referred to as the “USDA”). A state’s plan to license and regulate hemp can only commence once the Secretary of USDA approves that state’s plan. In states opting not to devise a hemp regulatory program, USDA will construct a regulatory program under which hemp cultivators in those states must apply for licenses and comply with a federally run program. This system of shared regulatory programming is similar to options states had in other policy areas such as health insurance marketplaces under the Affordable Care Act, or workplace safety plans under Occupational Health and Safety Act—both of which had federally-run systems for states opting not to set up their own systems.

 

The Farm Bill outlines actions that are considered violations of federal hemp law (including such activities as cultivating without a license or producing cannabis with more than 0.3% THC). The Farm Bill details possible punishments for such violations, pathways for violators to become compliant, and even which activities qualify as felonies under the law, such as repeated offenses.

 

One of the goals of the previous 2014 Farm Bill was to generate and protect research into hemp. The 2018 Farm Bill continues this effort. Section 7605 re-extends the protections for hemp research and the conditions under which such research can and should be conducted. Further, section 7501 of the Farm Bill extends hemp research by including hemp under the Critical Agricultural Materials Act. This provision recognizes the importance, diversity, and opportunity of the plant and the products that can be derived from it, but also recognizes that there is still a lot to learn about hemp and its products from commercial and market perspectives.

 

 Psychoactive Cannabis

 

A total of 35 states, District of Columbia, Guam, Puerto Rico and U.S. Virgin Islands have approved some form of cannabis legalization or decriminalization. These laws are in direct conflict with the United States Federal Controlled Substances Act (21 U.S.C. § 811) (“CSA”), which places controlled substances, including cannabis, in a schedule. Cannabis is classified as a Schedule I drug, which is viewed as having a high potential for abuse, has no currently-accepted use for medical treatment in the U.S., and lacks acceptable safety for use under medical supervision.

 

Medical cannabis decriminalization is generally referred to as the removal of all criminal penalties for the private possession and use of cannabis by adults, including cultivation for personal use and casual, nonprofit transfers of small amounts. Legalization is generally referred to as the development of a legally controlled market for cannabis, where consumers purchase from a safe, legal, and regulated source.

 

The dichotomy between federal and state laws has limited the access to banking and other financial services by marijuana businesses. The U.S. Department of Justice and the U.S. Department of Treasury have issued guidance for banks considering conducting business with marijuana dispensaries in states where those businesses are legal, pursuant to which banks must file a Marijuana Limited Suspicious Activity Report that states the marijuana business is following the government’s guidelines with regard to revenue that is generated exclusively from legal sales. However, as banks can still face prosecution if they provide financial services to marijuana businesses, there is widespread refusal of the banking industry to offer banking services to marijuana businesses operating within state and local laws.

 

In November 2016, California approved marijuana use for adults over the age of 21 without a physician’s prescription or recommendation, and permitted the cultivation and sale of marijuana, in each case subject to certain limitations. Despite the changes in state laws, marijuana remains illegal under federal law.

 

In November 2016, California voters approved Proposition 64, which is also known as the Adult Use of Marijuana Act (“the AUMA”), in a ballot initiative. Among other things, the AUMA makes it legal for adults over the age of 21 to use marijuana and to possess up to 28.5 grams of marijuana flowers and 8 grams of marijuana concentrates. Individuals are also permitted to grow up to six marijuana plants for personal use. In addition, the AUMA establishes a licensing system for businesses to, among other things, cultivate, process and distribute marijuana products under certain conditions. On January 1, 2018, the California Bureau of Marijuana Control enacted regulations to implement the AUMA.

The U.S. Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) has not historically devoted resources to prosecuting individuals whose conduct is limited to possession of small amounts of marijuana for use on private property but has relied on state and local law enforcement to address marijuana activity. In the event the DOJ reverses its stated policy and begins strict enforcement of the CSA in states that have laws legalizing medical marijuana and recreational marijuana in small amounts, there may be a direct and adverse impact to our business and our revenue and profits.

 

We are monitoring the Trump administration’s, the DOJ’s and Congress’ positions on federal marijuana law and policy. Since the start of the new Congress in January 2019, there have been positive discussions about the Federal Government’s approach to cannabis. The DOJ has not signaled any change in their enforcement efforts. Based on public statements and reports, we understand that certain aspects of those laws and policies are currently under review, but no official changes have been announced. It is possible that certain changes to existing laws or policies could have a negative effect on our business and results of operations.

 

Although the possession, cultivation and distribution of marijuana for medical and adult use is permitted in California, provided compliance with applicable state and local laws, rules, and regulations, marijuana is illegal under federal law. We believe we operate our business in compliance with all state and local laws and regulations. Any changes in federal, state or local law enforcement regarding marijuana may affect our ability to operate our business. Strict enforcement of federal law regarding marijuana would likely result in the inability to proceed with our business plans, could expose us to potential criminal liability and could subject our properties to civil forfeiture. Any changes in banking, insurance or other business services may also affect our ability to operate our business.

 

FDA Regulation of Hemp Extracts

 

The United States Food & Drug Administration (“FDA”) is generally responsible for protecting the public health by ensuring the safety, efficacy, and security of (1) prescription and over the counter drugs; (2) biologics including vaccines, blood & blood products, and cellular and gene therapies; (3) foodstuffs including dietary supplements, bottled water, and baby formula; and, (4) medical devices including heart pacemakers, surgical implants, prosthetics, and dental devices.

 

Regarding its regulation of drugs, the FDA process requires a review that begins with the filing of an investigational new drug (IND) application, with follow on clinical studies and clinical trials that the FDA uses to determine whether a drug is safe and effective, and therefore subject to approval for human use by the FDA.

 

Aside from the FDA’s mandate to regulate drugs, the FDA also regulates dietary supplement products and dietary ingredients under the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994. This law prohibits manufacturers and distributors of dietary supplements and dietary ingredients from marketing products that are adulterated or misbranded. This means that these firms are responsible for evaluating the safety and labeling of their products before marketing to ensure that they meet all the requirements of the law and FDA regulations, including, but not limited to the following labeling requirements: (1) identifying the supplement; (2) nutrition labeling; (3) ingredient labeling; (4) claims; and, (5) daily use information.

 

The FDA has not approved cannabis, marijuana, hemp or derivatives as a safe and effective drug for any indication. As of the date of this filing, we have not, and do not intend to file an IND with the FDA, concerning any of our products that contain CBD derived from industrial hemp or cannabis to be delivered in the State of California. Further, our products containing CBD derived from industrial hemp are not marketed or sold using claims that their use is safe and effective treatment for any medical condition subject to the FDA’s jurisdiction.

 

 

35 
 
 

  

The FDA has concluded that products containing cannabis or industrial hemp derived CBD are excluded from the dietary supplement definition under sections 201(ff)(3)(B)(i) and (ii) of the U.S. Food, Drug & Cosmetic Act, respectively. The FDA’s position is that products containing cannabis, CBD or derivatives are Schedule 1 drugs under the Controlled Substances Act, and so are illegal. Our products containing CBD derived from industrial hemp or cannabis delivered in the State of California are not marketed or sold as dietary supplements. However, at some indeterminate future time, the FDA may choose to change its position concerning generally cannabis and products containing hemp derived CBD, and may choose to enact regulations that are applicable to such products. In this event, our industrial hemp based products containing CBD and cannabis may be subject to regulation (See “Risk Factors”).

 

Effective on July 1, 2019, the Company acquired Action Nutraceuticals, Inc., a California Corporation (“Action Nutraceuticals”) and its assets from our CEO, Arman Tabatabeai, in exchange for $1,000 (see “Related Party Transactions”). Action Nutraceuticals is a developmental stage company engaged in research and development relating to powdered soft drink, coffee, and tea mixes containing non-psychoactive CBD. No intellectual property, patents or trademarks were acquired in the transaction.

 

The Company’s research and development efforts relative to the production of nutraceuticals will center on methodologies to infuse hemp extracts, CBD and other cannabinoids into highly bioavailable powders to be used in the Company’s products or sold to other manufacturers. The Company plans to utilize its internally-developed infusion technologies, technical knowhow and equipment acquired from Action Nutraceuticals to manufacture and sell consumer-oriented powdered drink mixes that include industrial hemp derived, non-psychoactive CBD as an ingredient. All products sold are being specifically developed with a composition containing less than three-tenths of one percent (0.3%) of THC concentration by dry weight.

 

The Drug Enforcement Administration (the “DEA”) has issued a rule regarding the scheduling of hemp and marijuana.

 

The ruling creates uncertainty relating to the regulatory status of the manufactured cannabinoids we are using in some of our products. Should the DEA conclude that manufactured cannabinoids are regulated under the CSA, we might not be able to continue to our plans to launch products based on manufactured cannabinoids. This could affect our business opportunities in the future.

 

The Rule states there are only four conforming changes, The rule reiterates these changes outlined below were already mandated under the 2018 Farm Bill: “DEA’s regulatory authority over any plant with less than 0.3% THC content on a dry weight basis, and any of the plant’s derivatives under the 0.3% THC content limit, is removed as a result.”

 

  1. The definition of “Tetrahydrocannabinols” on Schedule I of the official “Schedule of Controlled Substances” is modified to carve out “any material, compound, mixture, or preparation that falls within the definition of hemp” (as defined in the 2018 FarmBill, i.e., any plant with less than 0.3% THC content on a dry weight basis, and any of the plant’s derivatives under the 0.3% THC).

 

  Regardless of what any product label may say (i.e., “hemp” or otherwise), if a product has more than 0.3% Delta-9 THC, it is a controlled substance.

 

  Regardless of being hemp-derived, if the derivative, extract or product has more than 0.3% Delta-9 THC, it is a controlled substance.

 

  None of these changes, alters or affects the FDA’s jurisdiction over products containing cannabis and cannabis-derived compounds.

 

  Naturally occurring THCs in cannabis are not controlled substances so long as they are at or under the 0.3% Delta-9 THC threshold. Any of those that are above the 0.3% Delta-9 THC threshold are controlled substances.

 

  Synthetically derived THCs are all controlled substances, regardless of THC content.

 

36 
 
 

 

  2. Essentially removes Epidiolex (and any generics the FDA may subsequently approve) from control in schedule V (21 CFR 1308).

 

  3. Also removes the requirement for import and export permits for Epidiolex (and any future generics).

 

  4. The definition of “Marihuana Extract” on Schedule I is modified to be limited to extracts “containing greater than 0.3 percent delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol on a dry weight basis.”

 

  Regardless of whether the extract comes from hemp or marijuana, if it exceeds the 0.3% threshold, it is illegal.

 

  It is important to point out that this definition, even before the Rule, includes the following exception: “other than the separated resin (whether crude or purified) obtained from the plant.”

(“RxLeaf”) a Delaware corporation, creating a joint venture for the purpose of marketing the Company’s products to consumers. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company will produce products, which will be sold by RX Leaf via its digital marketing assets. The Company agreed to share the profits from the joint venture on a 50/50 basis. Marketing of the Company’s product began during August of 2020.

 

Polymeric Nanoparticles and Polymeric Nanofibers Research Program

 

The Company has an active research and development program to develop novel polymeric nanoparticles and nanofibers of cannabinoids and hemp extracts. Polymeric nanoparticles are very small solid particles with a size in the range of 10–1000 nanometers (nm or billionth of a meter), and are made of biodegradable and biocompatible polymers or copolymers, in which cannabinoids or other active ingredients can be entrapped or encapsulated. Polymeric nanoparticles are noted for and have attractive characteristics, such as small size, near water solubility, high degrees of bioavailability, long shelf life and stability during storage. These properties are thought to be especially beneficial relative to delivery of cannabinoids and hemp extracts to the human body.

 

Polymeric nanofibers are fibers with diameters several orders of magnitude smaller than conventional fibers, typically in the size range of a few nanometers to one micrometer. Due to their large surface areas per unit mass and extremely small pore size, these nanofibers demonstrate unique properties, making the technology especially well-suited to transdermal delivery of active ingredients, including cannabinoids.

 

Project Varin

 

The primary goal of Project Varin is the development of THC-V delivery methods that improve bioavailability of the cannabinoid to the human body. The project was recently expanded to include cannabinol (CBN) an additional rare cannabinoid.

 

In the first stage of the program researchers produced THC-V polymeric nanoparticles and nanofibers based on the Company’s patent-pending technologies. In the second phase of development, the Company plans to apply its ongoing cannabinoid glycosides research to THC-V, in order to produce THC-V with unparalleled levels of availability at minimal usage levels.

 

As a result of Project Varin, the Company has developed several new methods to produce cannabinoid nanoparticles and nanofibers, which the Company plans to formulate into food and beverage ingredients for used in its own products or to be sold to other companies for inclusion in food, beverage, or other consumer goods. The Company plans to continue other areas of delivery systems research via Project Varin including its programs pertaining to cannabinoid glycosides, polymeric cannabinoid nanoparticles and nanofibers, and its hemp extract-based alcohol replacement technologies.

Edible, Dissolvable Film Enhanced with Solid Nanoparticles of Cannabinoids Research Program

 

The Company is seeking to commercialize a unique invention of edible, disposable film enhanced with solid nanoparticles of cannabinoids under an agreement with Kirby & Padgett, LLC, a California limited liability company, entered into during June of 2019. Management believes there are numerous applications for such a product, such as a container for ready-made foods, protein powders, vitamins, and nutraceuticals that can be simply dropped into cold beverages, thus allowing the consumer to avoid additional steps of mixing ingredients. Additionally, since the film is impregnated with what is believed to be highly bioavailable cannabinoids, the film will perhaps serve a dual purpose as a delivery vehicle for cannabinoids to the body. Future versions of the film could include ingredients such as vitamins, trace minerals or active pharmaceutical ingredients. On June 6, 2019, the Company entered into a joint intellectual property ownership and consulting agreement with Kirby & Padgett, LLC, a California Limited liability company in order to more fully develop and to commercialize the invention. Any intellectual property developed under the collaboration effort will be considered joint property with all rights, title and interest assigned jointly to the Company and Kirby. Each Party shall work with the other Party relative to all business and monetization of such new Joint Intellectual Property and neither Party shall have any preferred rights over the other. Additionally, either party shall have the right to market the new invention with any and all revenues, costs and profits to be shared on a fifty percent/fifty percent (50%/50%) shares by the parties. All expenses will be agreed to in advance, with each Party sharing based on predetermined percentages of such expenses.

 

Tetrahydrocannabivarin (THV-C) Beverages

 

The Company has recently begun test marketing beverages infused with THC-V.

 

Management Services for Whisper Weed

 

On July 22, 2020, we signed a management agreement with Whisper Weed, Inc., a California corporation (“Whisper Weed”). Edward Manolos, a director of the Company, is a shareholder in Whisper Weed (see “Related Party Transactions”). Whisper Weed conducts licensed delivery activity of cannabis products in California. The material definitive agreement requires the parties to create a separate entity, CGI Whisper W, Inc. in California as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The business of CGI Whisper W, Inc. will be to provide management services for the lawful delivery of cannabis in the State of California. The Company will manage CGI Whisper W, Inc. operations. In exchange for the Company providing management services to Whisper Weed through the auspices of CGI Whisper W, Inc., the Company will receive as consideration a quarterly fee of 51% of the net profits earned by Whisper Weed. As separate consideration for the transaction, the Company agreed to issue to Whisper Weed $150,000 in the Company’s restricted common stock, valued for purposes of issuance based on the average closing price of the Company’s common stock for the twenty days preceding the entry into the material definitive agreement. Additionally, the Company agreed to amend its articles of incorporation to designate a new class of preferred shares. The preferred class shall be designated and issued to Whisper Weed in an amount equal to two times the quarterly payment made to the Company. The preferred shares shall be convertible into the Company’s common stock after 6 months, and shall be senior to other debts of the Company. The conversion to common stock will be based on a value of common stock equal to at least two times the actual sales for the previous 90 day period The Company agreed to include in the designation the obligation to make a single dividend payment to Whisper Weed equal to 90% of the initial quarterly net profits payable by Whisper Weed. As of August 31, 2020, the no common shares or preferred shares have been designated or issued.

 

Sales and Marketing

 

The Company recently began sales and marketing activities for its products and inventions. The Company primarily plans to market its non-psychoactive products via a “white label” strategy where the company produces products marketed and sold by other companies. The Company also plans to market its products directly to consumers.

Competition

 

We are entering markets that are highly competitive.

 

Relative to our prospects for commercializing polymeric nanoparticles and nanofibers, there are many competitors with various approaches to cannabinoid infusion for foods, beverages and other consumer products. While these currently available technologies are not directly competitive with us, such technologies may be viewed as being directly competitive by the marketplace in the future. Many of the current market participants are well established with considerable financial backing. We expect the quality and composition of the competitive market in the hemp processing environment to continue to evolve as the industry matures. Additionally, increased competition is possible to the extent that new states and geographies enter into the marketplace as a result of continued enactment of regulatory and legislative changes that de-criminalize and regulate cannabis and hemp products, including the 2018 Farm Bill. We believe the contemporaneous growth of the industry as a whole will result in new customers entering the marketplace, thereby further mitigating the impact of competition on our expected operations and results relating to our hemp processing businesses.

 

Relative to our non-psychoactive cannabis extract powdered drink business, there are relatively few market participants in this sector, but management of the Company believes the competitive situation will advance quickly over the coming months as new companies target this potentially lucrative market opportunity. Additionally, while large beverage industry participants have yet to launch products in this area, we believe such market entrances are likely as the regulatory environment is clarified by the FDA. This could significantly affect our ability to achieve market success.

 

We believe the contemporaneous growth of the cannabis beverage sector and the industry as a whole will result in new customers entering the marketplace, thereby further mitigating the impact of competition on our expected operations and results relating to hemp cultivation and processing business and joint venture.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

This discussion and analysis may include statements regarding our expectations with respect to our future performance, liquidity, and capital resources. Such statements, along with any other non-historical statements in the discussion, are forward-looking. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, factors listed in other documents we file with the SEC (the “SEC”). We do not assume an obligation to update any forward-looking statements. Our actual results may differ materially from those contained in or implied by any of the forward-looking statements contained herein.

 

Overview and Financial Condition

 

Going Concern

 

The Company sustained continued operating losses during the years ended August 31, 2020. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations, in which it has not been successful, and/or obtaining additional financing from its shareholders or other sources, as may be required.

 

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

 

Management is endeavoring to increase revenue-generating operations. While priority is on generating cash from operations through the sale of the Company’s products, management is also seeking to raise additional working capital through various financing sources, including the sale of the Company’s equity and/or debt securities, which may not be available on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. If such financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue our business as desired and our operating results will be adversely affected. In addition, any financing arrangement may have potentially adverse effects on us and/or our shareholders. Debt financing (if available and undertaken) will increase expenses, must be repaid regardless of operating results and may involve restrictions limiting our operating flexibility. If we issue equity securities to raise additional funds, the percentage ownership of our existing shareholders will be reduced and the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the current holders of our shares of Common Stock.

Outstanding Litigation

 

On November 22, 2019, the Company filed suit against Jeet Sidhru and Jatinder Bhogal in the District Court of Clark County Nevada, Case number A-19-805943-C. Mr. Sidhru and Mr. Bhogal were formerly directors and officers of the Company. The Company’s complaint alleges that Mr. Sidhru and Mr. Bhogal breached their fiduciary duties to the Company, including their fiduciary duties of due care, good faith and loyalty, by recklessly and intentionally failing to maintain the Company’s statutory corporate filings with the State of Nevada, OTC Markets and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and abandoning the Company and its shareholders. The Company’s complaint also alleges that Mr. Sidhru and Mr. Bhogal engaged in conflicted transactions involving the Company, in which each were unjustly enriched. The Company served Mr. Bhogal, and received notice of representation of both defendants. The case is currently in its early phase, as neither defendant has answered the complaint. The outcome of this suit against Mr. Bhogal and Mr. Sidjru is uncertain. If the Company were unable to prevail in the suit, the value of the common shares and the overall value of the Company could be negatively affected.

Related Party Transactions

 

In March 2018 and May 2018, a legal custodian of the Company funded the Company $600 in advances. On August 31, 2018, this amount was reclassified as a note payable, that bears interest at an annual rate of 10% and is payable upon demand. 

 

In connection with the above notes, the Company recognized a beneficial conversion feature of $27,954, representing the intrinsic value of the conversion features at the time of issuance. This beneficial conversion feature was accreted to interest expense during the year ended August 31, 2018.

 

On May 25, 2019, the Company issued two notes payable to Company directors Edward Manolos and Dan Nguyen for loans made to the Company, each in the amount of $16,666.67 for a total balance of $33,334. The notes bear interest at 5% per annum and do not have a fixed payment schedule or maturity date. These notes are additionally described herein in Footnote 7 - Notes Payable.

 

On July 1, 2019, the Company acquired Action Nutraceuticals, Inc., a company owned by our current CEO, Arman Tabatabaei for one thousand dollars ($1,000).

 

On July 9, 2019, the Company, through its Action Nutraceuticals subsidiary, loaned, Split Tee, LLC (“Split Tee”), a venture associated with Director Edward Manolos, $20,000 to engage in an exploratory research project. An additional $20,000 was supplied to Split Tee on August 23, 2019 (the “Split Tee Note”). The loans carry interest at the rate of 10% per annum and are due in one year for issuance. In addition, The Company, via Action Nutraceuticals subsidiary, invoiced Split Tee $5,000 as a consulting fee. Because of Mr. Manolos’ association as a director, the Company believes these transactions are defined by 17 CFR § 229.404 - (Item 404) Transactions with related persons, promoters and certain control persons, which would require specific disclosures under the section cited. On May 15, 2020, the outstanding balance of the Split Tee Note was reduced via a payment of $15,000.

Hymers III. The notes mature two years from the respective issuance date and bear interest at the rate of 10% per annum, payable at maturity. The noteholders shall have the right to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid principal balance of the note, at any time, into shares of common stock of the Company at a variable conversion price of 50% of the average of the previous twenty (20) trading day closing prices of the Company’s common stock, subject to adjustment. As a result of the variable conversion prices, upon issuance, the Company recognized total debt discount of $133,101, which is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the notes. On May 22, 2020, Mr. Tabatabaei converted the principal amount of $79,333 and interest of $2,608, for a total amount of $81,941.55 into 694,902 common shares.

On April 30, 2020, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with Robert L. Hymers III, its Chief Financial Officer (the “CFO”), whereby the CFO resigned and the Company issued a promissory note for $30,000, which represented the remaining amount owed to the CFO for services rendered. The note matures December 31, 2020 and bears interest at the rate of 10% per annum, payable at maturity. The noteholder has the right to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid principal balance of the note, at any time, into shares of common stock of the Company at a fixed conversion price of $0.02 per share, subject to adjustment. As a result of the beneficial conversion price, upon issuance, the Company recognized debt discount of $30,000, which is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the note. As of August 31, 2020, the carrying value of the note was $15,061, net of debt discount of $14,939 and accrued interest was $1,011.

On August 31, 2020, the Company issued a convertible note payable and a note payable to Robert L. Hymers III in connection with the acquisition of an 18.8% equity interest in NPE. See Note 8.

 

On August 21, 2020 the Company, issued a convertible note pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “SPA) to acquire 266,667 shares of common stock of Natural Plant Extract of California Inc., a California corporation (“NPE”), representing 18.8% of the outstanding capital stock of NPE on a fully diluted basis. With the exception of the entry into the subject material definitive agreements, no material relationship exists between the Registrant, or any of the Registrant’s affiliates or control persons and Hymers. Under the terms of the SPA, the Company acquired all rights and responsibilities of the equity stake for a purchase price of Two Million Forty Thousand United States Dollars ($2,040,000) (the “Purchase Price”). Relative to the payment of the Purchase Price, the Company agreed to: 1) pay Hymers Twenty Thousand United States Dollars ($20,000) each month for a period of twenty-seven (27) months, with the first payment commencing September 1, 2020 and the remaining payments due and payable on the first day of each subsequent month until Hymers has received Five Hundred Forty Thousand United Stated Dollars ($540,000), and 2) issue Hymers a convertible promissory note in the amount of One Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars ($1,500,000) (the “Note”). The Note bears interest at ten percent (10%) per annum. Hymers shall have the right at any time six (6) months after the Issuance Date to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid principal, interest, fees, or any other obligation owed pursuant to the note. Conversion Price shall be calculated as follows: 60% of the lowest Trading Price of the common shares during the ten (10) days preceding the date the Company receive a notice of conversion. Unless permitted by the applicable rules and regulations of the principal securities market on which the Common Stock is then listed or traded, in no event shall the Company issue upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant to the note and the other notes issued more than the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that the Company can issue pursuant to any rule of the principal United States securities market on which the Common Stock is then traded, which shall be 4.99% of the total shares outstanding at any time. A debt discount of $54,212 on the note payable at issuance was calculated based on the present value of the note using an implied interest rate of 10%. A debt discount of $270,886 was recognized. Accordingly, the Company recorded an initial value of its investment in NPE of $1,714,903. At the time the note becomes convertible, the Company will recognize a derivative liability at fair value related to the embedded conversion option at that time. Prior to these transactions, Robert Hymers III and Alan Tsai each sold equity interest representing a total of 18.8% of the outstanding equity interest of NPE to Edward Manolos, a Director and preferred stockholder of the Company in a private transaction. As a result of these two transactions, the Company beneficially controls approximately 37% of the equity of NPE. After this transaction, a venture capital company controls 40% of the equity interests in NPE, the Company, Alan Tsai and Edward Manolos each control 18.8% and one other entity controls 3.5%.

 

The Company evaluated its interest in NPE as of August 31, 2020 under ASC 810. Management determined that it had a variable interest in NPE, but that NPE does not meet the definition of a variable interest entity, and does not have an indirect voting interest of greater than 50%. Based on these factors, the investment in NPE by the Company, the investment in NPE will be accounted for as an equity method investment under the measurement alternative available under ASC 321 with the Company recording its share of the profits and losses of NPE at each reporting period. The initial investment balance was $1,714,903 based on the initial fair value estimate of the note payable and convertible note payable issued as consideration for the investment. For the three months ended August 31, 2020, the Company recognized no equity method income or losses due and no impairment of the investment.

As a result of the variable conversion prices, upon issuance, the Company recognized total debt discount of $256,500, which is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the notes. The Company is prohibited from effecting a conversion of the note to the extent that, as a result of such conversion, the noteholder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 4.99% of the number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of common stock upon conversion of the note.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES INVOLVING MANAGEMENT ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

 

Use of Fair Value

 

ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:

 

Level l - observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

 

Level 2 - include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.

 

Level 3 - unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activities.

 

 

49 
 
 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires our 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

For annual reporting periods after December 15, 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) made effective ASU 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” to supersede previous revenue recognition guidance under current U.S. GAAP. Revenue is now recognized in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 606, Revenue Recognition. The objective of the guidance is to establish the principles that an entity shall apply to report useful information to users of financial statements about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from a contract with a customer. The core principal is to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Two options were made available for implementation of the standard: the full retrospective approach or modified retrospective approach. The guidance became effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period, with early adoption permitted. We adopted FASB ASC Topic 606 for our reporting period as of the year ended December 31, 2017, which made our implementation of FASB ASC Topic 606 effective in the first quarter of 2018. We decided to implement the modified retrospective transition method to implement FASB ASC Topic 606, with no restatement of the comparative periods presented. Using this transition method, we applied the new standards to all new contracts initiated on/after the effective date. We also decided to apply this method to any incomplete contracts we determine are subject to FASB ASC Topic 606 prospectively. For the quarter ended March 31, 2019, there were no incomplete contracts. As is more fully discussed below, we are of the opinion that none of our contracts for services or products contain significant financing components that require revenue adjustment under FASB ASC Topic 606.

 

The Company’s will be to recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 606, Revenue Recognition (“ASC 606”) which requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management’s judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. Upon adoption of ASC 606 there were no adjustments converting from ASC 605 to ASC 606 because product sales are recorded upon delivery of goods and payment of product.

 

Product Sales

 

We have established a policy where revenue from product sales, including delivery fees, is recognized when (1) an order is placed by the customer; (2) the price is fixed and determinable when the order is placed; (3) the customer is required to and concurrently pays for the product upon order; and, (4) the product is shipped. The evaluation of our recognition of revenue after the adoption of FASB ASC 606 did not include any judgments or changes to judgments that affected our reporting of revenues, since our product sales, both pre and post adoption of FASB ASC 606, were evaluated using the same standards as noted above, reflecting revenue recognition upon order, payment and shipment, which all occurs concurrently when the order is placed and paid for by the customer, and the product is shipped. Further, given the facts that (1) our customers exercise discretion in determining the timing of when they place their product order; and, (2) the price negotiated in our product sales is fixed and determinable at the time the customer places the order, and there is no delay in shipment, we are of the opinion that our product sales do not indicate or involve any significant customer financing that would materially change the amount of revenue recognized under the sales transaction, or would otherwise contain a significant financing component for us or the customer under FASB ASC Topic 606.

Cash

 

The Company has operated during the most recent fiscal periods with minimal cash.

 

From time to time in the future, as we raise funds via sales of equity and notes, we may maintain bank balances in interest bearing accounts in excess of the $250,000 currently insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation for interest bearing accounts (there is currently no insurance limit for deposits in non-interest bearing accounts). We have not experienced any losses with respect to cash. Management believes our Company is not exposed to any significant credit risk with respect to its cash. 

 

Accounts Receivable 

 

At the present time we have no accounts receivable. In the future, accounts receivable are carried at their estimated collectible amounts, net of any estimated allowances for doubtful accounts. We grant unsecured credit to our customer’s deemed credit worthy. Ongoing credit evaluations are performed and potential credit losses estimated by management are charged to operations on a regular basis. At the time any particular account receivable is deemed uncollectible, the balance is charged to the allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company had accounts receivable net of allowances of $0 as of August 31, 2019 and $0 as of August 31, 2018. The Company had accounts receivable net of allowances of $5,000 as of February 29, 2020.

 

Inventory

 

The Company currently has no inventories. In the future, we plan to value inventories using the weighted average costing method (approximate FIFO costing method).

 

We plan to regularly review inventory and consider forecasts of future demand, market conditions and product obsolescence. In the future, if the estimated realizable value of our inventory is less than cost, we make provisions in order to reduce its carrying value to its estimated market value.

 

Intangible assets, net

 

At this time the Company has no intangible assets. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful life. The Company monitors conditions related to these assets to determine whether events and circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining amortization period. The Company tests its intangible assets with finite lives for potential impairment whenever management concludes events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The original estimate of an asset’s useful life and the impact of an event or circumstance on either an asset’s useful life or carrying value involve significant judgment.

 

Derivative Instruments

 

The fair value of derivative instruments is recorded and shown separately under current liabilities. Changes in the fair value of derivatives liability are recorded in the consolidated statement of operations under non-operating income (expense).

 

The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the consolidated statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses a weighted average Black-Scholes Merton option pricing model to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

Stock Based Compensation

 

Stock based compensation cost is measured at the date of grant, based on the calculated fair value of the stock-based award, and will be recognized as an expense over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the award). We estimate the fair value of employee stock options granted using the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing Model. Key assumptions used to estimate the fair value of stock options will include the exercise price of the award, the fair value of our shares of Common Stock on the date of grant, the expected option term, the risk-free interest rate at the date of grant, the expected volatility and the expected annual dividend yield on our shares of Common Stock.

 

Income taxes

 

We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their perspective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are recorded, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

 

As a result of the implementation of certain provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), which clarifies the accounting and disclosure for uncertainty in tax positions, as defined, ASC 740 seeks to reduce the diversity in practice associated with certain aspects of the recognition and measurement related to accounting for income taxes. We adopted the provisions of ASC 740 as of October 2, 2008 and have analyzed filing positions in each of the federal and state jurisdictions where we are required to file income tax returns, as well as open tax years in these jurisdictions. We have identified the U.S. federal and California as our “major” tax jurisdictions and generally, we remain subject to Internal Revenue Service examination of our 2013 U.S. federal income tax returns. However, we have certain tax attribute carryforwards, which will remain subject to review and adjustment by the relevant tax authorities until the statute of limitations closes with respect to the year in which such attributes are utilized.

 

We believe that our income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and do not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material change to our financial position. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded pursuant to ASC 740. In addition, we did not record a cumulative effect adjustment related to the adoption of ASC 740. Our policy for recording interest and penalties associated with income-based tax audits is to record such items as a component of income taxes. We have no interest or penalties as of August 31, 2020.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The new standard establishes a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of this ASU on the consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification 605 - Revenue Recognition and most industry-specific guidance throughout the Codification. The standard requires that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In August 2015, the FASB approved a one-year deferral of the effective date of the new revenue recognition standard. Public business entities, certain not-for-profit entities, and certain employee benefit plans should apply the guidance in ASU 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Earlier application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue versus Net). In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-11, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) - Rescission of SEC Guidance Because of ASU 2014-09 and 2014-16, and ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) - Narrow Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients. These ASUs clarify the implementation guidance on a few narrow areas and adds some practical expedients to the guidance Topic 606. The Company is evaluating the effect that these ASUs will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

On March 30, 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which includes amendments to accounting for income taxes at settlement, forfeitures, and net settlements to cover withholding taxes. The amendments in ASU 2016-09 are effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company adopted this new guidance on January 1, 2017 and this standard does not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), which requires entities to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This replaces the existing incurred loss model and is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early application will be permitted for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. ASU 2016-15 clarifies the presentation and classification of certain cash receipts and cash payments in the statement of cash flows. This ASU is effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of ASU 2016-15 on its financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-16—Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory. This ASU improves the accounting for the income tax consequences of intra-entity transfers of assets other than invent tory. For public business entities, the amendments in this update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this ASU will have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. The guidance requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim period within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The standard should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this ASU will have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The standard should be applied prospectively on or after the effective date. The Company will evaluate the impact of adopting this standard prospectively upon any transactions of acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses.

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The guidance removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation. A goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. The guidance should be adopted on a prospective basis for the annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND FEE TRANSACTIONS

 

Transactions with Related Persons

 

Our Company reviews transactions between our Company and persons or entities considered to be related parties (collectively “related parties”). Our Company considers entities to be related parties where an executive officer, director or a 5% or more beneficial owner of our shares of Common Stock (or an immediate family member of these persons) has a direct or indirect material interest. Transactions of this nature require the approval of our Board.

 

On July 1, 2019, the Company acquired Action Nutraceuticals, Inc., a company owned by our CEO, Arman Tabatabaei. The value of the transaction value was nominal, at only one thousand dollars ($1,000). Therefore, the Company believes its acquisition of Action Nutraceuticals, Inc. is not an acquisition of a significant amount of assets, or a transaction defined by 17 CFR § 229.404 \- (Item 404) “Transactions with Related Persons, Promoters and Certain Control Persons” that would require specific disclosure under the section cited. Regardless, the Company will disclose the transaction pursuant to 17 CFR § 229.404 - (Item 404) “Transactions with Related Persons, Promoters and Certain Control Persons.” No intellectual property, patents or trademarks were acquired in the transaction.

 

On July 9, 2019, the Company, through its Action Nutraceuticals subsidiary, loaned, Split Tee, LLC (“Split Tee”), a venture associated with Director Edward Manolos, $20,000 to engage in an exploratory research project. An additional $20,000 was supplied to Split Tee on August 23, 2019. The loans carry interest at the rate of 10% per annum and are due in one year for issuance. In addition, The Company, via Action Nutraceuticals subsidiary, invoiced Split Tee $5,000 as a consulting fee. Because of Mr. Manolos’ association as a director, the Company believes these transactions are defined by 17 CFR § 229.404 - (Item 404) Transactions with related persons, promoters and certain control persons, which would require specific disclosures under the section cited. As of the end of the fiscal year August 31, 2020, the Company determined it is not likely that repayment of the $40,000 note would occur, thus the Company booked an allowance for Bad Debt expense for the amount, bringing the note balance to zero, as of the end of the fiscal year ending August 31, 2020.

 

During the three months ended February 29, 2020, the Company issued two convertible promissory notes having an aggregate principal amount of $133,101 in exchange for accrued expenses owed to related parties, of which $79,333 is payable to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and $53,768 is payable to the Company’s former Chief Financial Officer (Robert L. Hymers III). The notes mature two years from the respective issuance date and bear interest at the rate of 10% per annum, payable at maturity. The noteholders shall have the right to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid principal balance of the note, at any time, into shares of common stock of the Company at a variable conversion price of 50% of the average of the previous twenty (20) trading day closing prices of the Company’s common stock, subject to adjustment. As a result of the variable conversion prices, upon issuance, the Company recognized total debt discount of $133,101, which is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the notes. On May 22, 2020, the Chief Executive Officer converted $79,333 in principal and $2,608 of accrued interest into 694,902 shares of common stock to be issued having a fair value of $232,792. The conversion resulted in the elimination of $70,313 of remaining debt discount, the elimination of $231,632 of derivative liabilities, and a $10,468 gain on conversion that resulted from a related party and was therefore included in Additional paid-in capital. As of August 31, 2020, the carrying value of the remaining note with the former chief financial officer was $15,884, net of debt discount of $37,884 and accrued interest was $3,138.

On April 30, 2020, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with its former Chief Financial Officer (Robert L. Hymers III, hereinafter referred to as the “CFO”) whereby the CFO resigned and the Company issued a promissory note for $30,000, which represented the remaining amount owed to the CFO for services rendered. The note matures December 31, 2020 and bears interest at the rate of 10% per annum, payable at maturity. The noteholder has the right to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid principal balance of the note, at any time, into shares of common stock of the Company at a fixed conversion price of $0.02 per share, subject to adjustment. As a result of the beneficial conversion price, upon issuance, the Company recognized debt discount of $30,000, which is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the note. As of August 31, 2020, the carrying value of the note was $15,061, net of debt discount of $14,939 and accrued interest was $1,011.

 

On July 22, 2020, we signed a management agreement with Whisper Weed, Inc., a California corporation (“Whisper Weed”). Our director Edward Manolos is a shareholder in Whisper Weed. Whisper Weed conducts licensed delivery activity of cannabis products in California. The agreement requires the parties to create a separate entity, CGI Whisper W, Inc. in California as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The business of CGI Whisper W, Inc. will be to provide management services for the lawful delivery of cannabis in the State of California. The Company will manage CGI Whisper W, Inc. operations. In exchange for the Company providing management services to Whisper Weed through the auspices of CGI Whisper W, Inc., the Company will receive as consideration a quarterly fee of 51% of the net profits earned by Whisper Weed. As separate consideration for the transaction, the Company agreed to issue to Whisper Weed $150,000 in the Company’s restricted common stock, valued for purposes of issuance based on the average closing price of the Company’s common stock for the twenty days preceding the entry into the material definitive agreement. Additionally, the Company agreed to amend its articles of incorporation to designate a new class of preferred shares. The preferred class shall be designated and issued to Whisper Weed in an amount equal to two times the quarterly payment made to the Company. The preferred shares shall be convertible into the Company’s common stock after 6 months, and shall be senior to other debts of the Company. The conversion to common stock will be based on a value of common stock equal to at least two times the actual sales for the previous 90 day period. The Company agreed to include in the designation the obligation to make a single dividend payment to Whisper Weed equal to 90% of the initial quarterly net profits payable by Whisper Weed. As of August 31, 2020, no common or preferred shares have been issued.

 

On August 21, 2020 the Company, issued a convertible note pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “SPA) to acquire 266,667 shares of common stock of Natural Plant Extract of California Inc., a California corporation (“NPE”), representing 18.8% of the outstanding capital stock of NPE on a fully diluted basis. With the exception of the entry into the subject material definitive agreements, no material relationship exists between the Company, or any of the Company’s affiliates or control persons and Hymers. Under the terms of the SPA, the Company acquired all rights and responsibilities of the equity stake for a purchase price of Two Million Forty Thousand United States Dollars ($2,040,000) (the “Purchase Price”). Relative to the payment of the Purchase Price, the registrant agreed to: 1) pay Robert L. Hymers, III twenty thousand United States Dollars ($20,000) each month for a period of twenty-seven (27) months, with the first payment commencing September 1, 2020 and the remaining payments due and payable on the first day of each subsequent month until Hymers has received Five Hundred Forty Thousand United Stated Dollars ($540,000), and 2) issue Hymers a convertible promissory note in the amount of One Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars ($1,500,000) (the “Note”). The Note bears interest at ten percent (10%) per annum. Hymers shall have the right at any time six (6) months after the Issuance Date to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid principal, interest, fees, or any other obligation owed pursuant to the note. Conversion Price shall be calculated as follows: 60% of the lowest Trading Price of the common shares during the ten (10) days preceding the date the Company receive a notice of conversion. Unless permitted by the applicable rules and regulations of the principal securities market on which the Common Stock is then listed or traded, in no event shall the Company issue upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant to the note and the other notes issued more than the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that the Company can issue pursuant to any rule of the principal United States securities market on which the Common Stock is then traded, which shall be 4.99% of the total shares outstanding at any time. A debt discount of $54,212 on the note payable at issuance was calculated based on the present value of the note using an implied interest rate of 10%. A debt discount of $270,886 was recognized. Accordingly, the Company recorded an initial value of its investment in NPE of $1,714,903. At the time the note becomes convertible, the Company will recognize a derivative liability at fair value related to the embedded conversion option at that time. Prior to these transactions, Robert Hymers III and Alan Tsai each sold equity interest representing a total of 18.8% of the outstanding equity interest of NPE to Edward Manolos, a Director and preferred stockholder of the Company in a private transaction. As a result of these two transactions, the Company beneficially controls approximately 37% of the equity of NPE. After this transaction, a venture capital company controls 40% of the equity interests in NPE, the Company, Alan Tsai and Edward Manolos each control 18.8% and one other entity controls 3.5%.

COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES

 

Our Articles of Incorporation provide that we shall indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law and that none of our directors will be personally liable to the Company or its shareholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability:

 

  for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the Company or its shareholders;

 

  for acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of the law;

 

  under Nevada General Corporation Law for the unlawful payment of dividends; or

 

  for any transaction from which the director derives an improper personal benefit.

 

These provisions require us to indemnify our directors and officers unless restricted by Nevada law and eliminate our rights and those of our shareholders to recover monetary damages from a director for breach of his or her fiduciary duty of care as a director except in the situations described above. The limitations summarized above, however, do not affect our ability or that of our shareholders to seek non-monetary remedies, such as an injunction or rescission, against a director for breach of his or her fiduciary duty.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

The Board of Directors and

Stockholders of Cannabis Global, Inc. (formerly MCTC Holdings, Inc.)

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Cannabis Global, Inc. (formerly MCTC Holdings, Inc.) (the “Company”) as of August 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended August 31, 2020, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of August 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended August 31 2020, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Substantial Doubt About the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

 

As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s continuing net losses and negative operating cash flows raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the issuance of these consolidated financial statements. Management’s plans are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

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

 

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

 

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

CANNABIS GLOBAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

(formerly MCTC HOLDINGS, INC.) 

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

August 31, 2020

 

NOTE 1 — Organization and Description of Business

 

Cannabis Global, Inc. is located at 520 S Grand Avenue, Suite 320, Los Angeles, California 90071. Our telephone number is (310) 986-4929 and our website is accessible at www.cannabisglobalinc.com  Our shares of Common Stock are quoted on the OTC Markets Pink, operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc., under the ticker symbol “CGBL.”

Our aim is to grow our revenues in the marketplace for hemp, hemp extracts, and cannabis. While we are indirectly involved in the cannabis business, we do not directly engage in the cultivation, manufacturing, distribution or sales of regulated cannabis products. By way of our investment in Natural Plant Extract of California Inc., a California corporation (“NPE”) and our management agreement with Whisper Weed, Inc., a California corporation (“Whisper Weed”), we are indirectly involved in the business of the cultivation, manufacturing, distribution or sales of regulated cannabis products. Edward Manolos, a director of the Company, is a shareholder in Whisper Weed, thus the management agreement is Related Party Transaction and is described in the sections marked “Related Party Transactions”.

 

Our business focus is twofold: 1) Development and commercialization of proprietary engineered technologies to deliver hemp extracts and cannabinoids to the human body. We are achieving this goal by way of an active research and development programs and of the introduction to the industry of new hemp and hemp extract infusion technologies; and, 2) Investments into specialized area of the regulated and licenses cannabis business where are hold either an equity state or provide managerial services.

(“Octillion”). Octillion (a Canadian company was trading in the OTC Markets under the symbol “OCTL”). At the time of Octillion’s existence, Octillion was a development stage technology company focused on the identification, acquisition and development of emerging solar energy and solar related technologies and products.

On January 14, 2009, Octillion Corp. (Symbol: OCTL), parent company of MicroChannel announced that it had changed its name to New Energy Technologies, Inc. (Symbol: NENE) (“New Energy”). The name change became effective on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board at the opening of trading on January 14, 2009.

As of September 25, 2007, there were 1,000,000 shares of common stock were issued and outstanding; there were no preferred shares issued and outstanding. The directors and sole shareholder have approved a forward split of their issued and outstanding shares of common stock on the basis of 538,646 for 1 for the purpose of effecting the distribution.

On or about June 27, 2018, we changed domiciles from the State of Nevada to the State of Delaware and thereafter reorganized under the Delaware Holding Company Statute Delaware General Corporation Law Section 251(g). On or about July 12, 2018, two subsidiaries were formed for the purpose of effecting the reorganization. We incorporated MCTC Holdings, Inc. and MCTC Holdings Inc. incorporated MicroChannel Corp. We then effected a merger involving the three constituents and under the terms of the merger we were merged into MicroChannel Corp., with MicroChannel Corp. surviving and our separate corporate existence ceasing. Following the merger MCTC Holdings, Inc. became the surviving publicly traded issuer and all of our assets and liabilities were merged into MCTC Holdings, Inc.’s wholly owned subsidiary MicroChannel Corp. Our shareholders became the shareholders of MCTC Holdings, Inc. on a one for one basis.

NOTE 2 – Going Concern Uncertainties and Liquidity Requirements

 

During financial reporting period ending August 31, 2020, the Company generated $27,004 in revenues, has an accumulated deficit of $6,056,949, and does not have positive cash flows from operating activities. The Company expects to incur additional losses as begins to execute its business strategy in the cannabinoid marketplace. The Company will be subject to the risks, uncertainties, and difficulties frequently encountered by early-stage companies. The Company may not be able to successfully address any or all of these risks and uncertainties. Failure to adequately do so could cause the Company’s business, results of operations, and financial condition to suffer. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the issuance date of these financial statements.

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is an issue due to its net losses and negative cash flows from operations, and its need for additional financing to fund future operations. Management plans to obtain necessary funding from outside sources and through the sales of Company shares. There can be no assurance that such funds, if available, can be obtained on terms reasonable to the Company. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Based on the Company’s current level of expenditures, management believes that cash on hand is not adequate to fund operations for the next twelve months. Management of the Company is estimating approximately $1,000,000 will be required over the next twelve months to fully execute its business strategy. These can be no assurance the Company will be able to obtain such funds.

NOTE 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in those statements. We have made our best estimates of certain amounts contained in our consolidated financial statements. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities. However, application of our accounting policies involves the exercise of judgment and use of assumptions as to future uncertainties, and, as a result, actual results could differ materially from these estimates. Management believes that the estimates, assumptions, and judgments involved in the accounting policies described below have the most significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

We cannot predict what future laws and regulations might be passed that could have a material effect on our results of operations. We assess the impact of significant changes in laws and regulations on a regular basis and update the assumptions and estimates used to prepare our financial statements when we deem it necessary.

 

Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Variable Interest Entities

 

The Company accounts for arrangements that are not controlled through voting or similar rights as variable interest entities (“VIEs”). An enterprise is required to consolidate a VIE if it is the primary beneficiary of the VIE. A VIE is created when (i) the equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties, or (ii) the entity’s equity holders as a group either: (a) lack the power, through voting or similar rights, to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, (b) are not obligated to absorb expected losses of the entity if they occur, or (c) do not have the right to receive expected residual returns of the entity if they occur. If an entity is deemed to be a VIE, the enterprise that is deemed to have a variable interest, or combination of variable interests, that provides the enterprise with a controlling financial interest in the VIE, is considered the primary beneficiary and must consolidate the VIE. Investments where the Company has significant influence, but not control, and joint ventures which are VIEs in which the Company is not the primary beneficiary, are recorded under the equity method of accounting on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

 

As of August 31, 2020, the Company held a variable interest in an entity for which it directly held an 18.8% equity interest, and indirectly controlled 37.6% of the equity. The entity was not determined to be a VIE under ASC 810, as it did not meet the criteria outlined above. Since the Company indirectly controls less than 50% of the voting interest of the entity, the entity is not consolidated, and the Company accounts for the investment under the equity method of accounting in accordance with ASC 321. Since the entity in which the Company holds its investment does not have a readily determinable fair value, the Company elected to account for the investment under the measurement alternative, accounting for the investment at cost less impairment, plus or minus any changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the same investment. See Note 8 for additional information on this investment.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP 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 periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts the Company’s business and financial results will depend on numerous evolving factors including, but not limited to: the magnitude and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, the extent to which it will impact worldwide macroeconomic conditions, the speed of the anticipated recovery, and governmental and business reactions to the pandemic. The Company assessed certain accounting matters that generally require consideration of forecasted financial information in context with the information reasonably available to the Company and the unknown future impacts of COVID-19 as of August 30, 2020 and through the date of this report. The matters assessed included accounts receivable and the carrying value of investments, intangible assets and other long-lived assets. The Company’s future assessment of the magnitude and duration of COVID-19, as well as other factors, could result in additional material impacts to the Company’s consolidated financial statements in future reporting periods.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are held in operating accounts at a major financial institution.

 

Inventory

Inventory is primarily comprised of work in progress. Inventory is valued at cost, based on the specific identification method, unless and until the net realizable value for the inventory is lower than cost, in which case an allowance is established to reduce the valuation to the net realizable value. As of August 31, 2020, and August 31, 2019, market values of all of our inventory were at cost, and accordingly, no such valuation allowance was recognized.

 

Deposits

Deposits is comprised of advance payments made to third parties, primarily for inventory for which we have not yet taken title. When we take title to inventory for which deposits are made, the related amount is classified as inventory, then recognized as a cost of revenues upon sale (see “Costs of Revenues” below). There were no deposits as of August 31, 2020 or August 31, 2019.

 

Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets

Prepaid expenses and other current assets is primarily comprised of advance payments made to third parties for independent contractors’ services or other general expenses. Prepaid services and general expenses are amortized over the applicable periods which approximate the life of the contract or service period.

 

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are recorded at the net value of face amount less any allowance for doubtful accounts. On a periodic basis, we evaluate our accounts receivable and, based on a method of specific identification of any accounts receivable for which we deem the net realizable value to be less than the gross amount of accounts receivable recorded, we establish an allowance for doubtful accounts for those balances. In determining our need for an allowance for doubtful accounts, we consider historical experience, analysis of past due amounts, client creditworthiness and any other relevant available information. However, our actual experience may vary from our estimates. If the financial condition of our clients were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability or unwillingness to pay our fees, we may need to record additional allowances or write-offs in future periods. This risk is mitigated to the extent that we collect retainers from our clients prior to performing significant services.

 

The allowance for doubtful accounts, if any, is recorded as a reduction in revenue to the extent the provision relates to fee adjustments and other discretionary pricing adjustments. To the extent the provision relates to a client's inability to make required payments on accounts receivables, the provision is recorded in operating expenses. As of August 31, 2020, and August 31, 2019, we had $0 and $0 allowance for doubtful accounts, respectively.

 

Property and Equipment, net

Property and Equipment is stated at net book value, cost less depreciation. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation of owned equipment is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from two to seven years. Depreciation of capitalized construction in progress costs, a component of property and equipment, net, begins once the underlying asset is placed into service and is recognized over the estimated useful life. Property and equipment is reviewed for impairment as discussed below under “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets.” We did not capitalize any interest as of August 31, 2020, and as of August 31, 2019.

 

Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We evaluate long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Upon such an occurrence, recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to forecasted undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. For long-lived assets held for sale, assets are written down to fair value, less cost to sell. Fair value is determined based on discounted cash flows, appraised values or management's estimates, depending upon the nature of the assets. We have not recorded any impairment charges related to long-lived assets during the year ended August 31, 2020, and August 31, 2019.

Beneficial Conversion Feature

If the conversion features of conventional convertible debt provides for a rate of conversion that is below market value at issuance, this feature is characterized as a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”).  We record a BCF as a debt discount pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ACF”) Topic 470-20 Debt with Conversion and Other Options. In those circumstances, the convertible debt is recorded net of the discount related to the BCF, and we amortize the discount to interest expense over the life of the debt using the effective interest method. 

 

Revenue Recognition

For annual reporting periods after December 15, 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) made effective ASU 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” to supersede previous revenue recognition guidance under current U.S. GAAP. Revenue is now recognized in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 606, Revenue Recognition. The guidance presents a single five-step model for comprehensive revenue recognition that requires an entity to 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. Two options are available for implementation of the standard which is either the retrospective approach or cumulative effect adjustment approach. The guidance becomes effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period, with early adoption permitted. We determined to implement the cumulative effect adjustment approach to our implementation of FASB ASC Topic 606, with no restatement of the comparative periods presented. We apply this method to any incomplete contracts we determine are subject to FASB ASC Topic 606 prospectively. As is more fully discussed below, we are of the opinion that none of our contracts for services or products contain significant financing components that require revenue adjustment under FASB ASC Topic 606.

 

In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 606, Revenue Recognition, we recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of a significant financing component exists in our consulting and product sales contracts. We examine and evaluate when our customers become liable to pay for goods and services; how much consideration is paid as compared to the cash selling price of the goods or services; and, the length of time between our performance and the receipt of payment.

 

Product Sales

Revenue from product sales, including delivery fees, is recognized at a point in time when control of the promised goods is transferred to our customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods. Generally, we drop-ship orders to our clients with shipping-point or destination terms. For any shipments with destination terms, the Company defers revenue until delivery to the customer. Given the facts that (1) our customers exercise discretion in determining the timing of when they place their product order; and, (2) the price negotiated in our product sales is fixed and determinable at the time the customer places the order, we are not of the opinion that our product sales indicate or involve any significant customer financing that would materially change the amount of revenue recognized under the sales transaction, or would otherwise contain a significant financing component for us or the customer under FASB ASC Topic 606.

 

Costs of Revenues

Our policy is to recognize costs of revenue in the same manner in conjunction with revenue recognition. Cost of revenues include the costs directly attributable to revenue recognition and includes compensation and fees for services, travel and other expenses for services and costs of products and equipment. Selling, general and administrative expenses are charged to expense as incurred.

Stock-Based Compensation

Restricted shares are awarded to employees and entitle the grantee to receive shares of restricted common stock at the end of the established vesting period. The fair value of the grant is based on the stock price on the date of grant. We recognize related compensation costs on a straight-line basis over the requisite vesting period of the award, which to date has been one year from the grant date.

Income Taxes

We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns in accordance with applicable accounting guidance for accounting for income taxes, using currently enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. We record a valuation allowance when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.  For the year ended August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019 we incurred no income taxes. As of August 31, 2020, and August 31, 2019, we had no liabilities related to federal or state income taxes.

 

Other Tax Related Policies

 

Incentive Stock Options. For federal income tax purposes, the holder of an ISO has no taxable income at the time of the grant or exercise of the ISO. If such person retains the Common Stock acquired under the ISO for a period of at least two years after the stock option is granted and one year after the stock option is exercised, any gain upon the subsequent sale of the Common Stock will be taxed as a long-term capital gain. A participant who disposes of shares acquired by exercise of an ISO prior to the expiration of two years after the stock option is granted or before one year after the stock option is exercised will realize ordinary income equal to the lesser of (i) the excess of the fair market value over the exercise price of the shares on the date of exercise, or (ii) the excess of the amount realized on the disposition over the exercise price for the shares. Any additional gain or loss recognized upon any later disposition of the shares would be a short- or long-term capital gain or loss, depending on whether the shares have been held by the participant for more than one year. Utilization of losses is subject to special rules and limitations.

Nonstatutory Stock Options. A participant who receives a nonstatutory stock option generally will not realize taxable income on the grant of such option, but will realize ordinary income at the time of exercise of the stock option equal to the difference between the option exercise price and the fair market value of the stock on the date of exercise.

Restricted Stock. A participant will generally not have taxable income upon grant of unvested restricted shares unless he or she elects to be taxed at that time pursuant to an election under Code Section 83(b). Instead, he or she will recognize ordinary income at the time(s) of vesting equal to the fair market value (on each vesting date) of the shares or cash received minus any amount paid for the shares, if any.

Stock Units. No taxable income is generally reportable when unvested stock units are granted to a participant. Upon settlement of the vested stock units, the participant will recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares issued or payment received in connection with the vested stock units.

Stock Appreciation Rights. No taxable income is generally reportable when a stock appreciation right is granted to a participant. Upon exercise, the participant will recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the amount of cash received plus the fair market value of any shares received.

Income Tax Effects for the Company. We generally will be entitled to a tax deduction in connection with an award under the 2020 Plan in an amount equal to the ordinary income realized by a participant at the time the participant recognizes such income (for example, upon the exercise of an nonqualified stock option or vesting of restricted stock).

Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m) Deduction Limitation. Section 162(m) of the Code places a limit of $1 million on the amount of compensation that we may deduct in any one fiscal year with respect to our executive officers and other persons who are subject to Code Section 162(m). Therefore, compensation derived from 2020 Plan awards may not be fully deductible by the Company.

Internal Revenue Code Section 280G. For certain persons, if a change in control of the Company causes an award to vest or become newly payable, or if the award was granted within one year of a change in control and the value of such award or vesting or payment, when combined with all other payments in the nature of compensation contingent on such change in control, equals or exceeds the dollar limit provided in Section 280G of the Code (generally, this dollar limit is equal to three times the five-year historical average of the individual’s annual compensation received from the Company), then the entire amount exceeding the individual’s average annual compensation will be considered an excess parachute payment. The recipient of an excess parachute payment must pay a 20% excise tax on this excess amount and the Company cannot deduct the excess amount from its taxable income.

Certain types of nonqualified deferred compensation arrangements. A violation of Section 409A of the Code generally results in an acceleration of the recognition of income of amounts intended to be deferred and the imposition of a federal excise tax of 20% on the employee over and above the income tax owed, plus possible penalties and interest. The types of arrangements covered by Section 409A of the Code are broad and may apply to certain awards available under the 2020 Plan (such as stock units). The intent is for the 2020 Plan, including any awards available thereunder, to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code to the extent applicable. As required by Code Section 409A, certain nonqualified deferred compensation payments to specified employees may be delayed to the seventh month after such employee’s separation from service.

Loss Contingencies

From time to time the Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. On at least a quarterly basis, consistent with ASC 450-20-50-1C, if the Company determines that there is a reasonable possibility that a material loss may have been incurred, or is reasonably estimable, regardless of whether the Company accrued for such a loss (or any portion of that loss), the Company will confer with its legal counsel, consistent with ASC 450. If the material loss is determinable or reasonably estimable, the Company will record it in its accounts and as a liability on the balance sheet. If the Company determines that such an estimate cannot be made, the Company's policy is to disclose a demonstration of its attempt to estimate the loss or range of losses before concluding that an estimate cannot be made, and to disclose it in the notes to the financial statements under Contingent Liabilities.

 

Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

 

We report net income (loss) per common share in accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings per Share”. This statement requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings with a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the earnings per share computations. Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period and excludes the effects of any potentially dilutive securities. Diluted net income (loss) per share gives effect to any dilutive potential common stock outstanding during the period. The computation does not assume conversion, exercise or contingent exercise of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on earnings.

 

Note 4 - Net Loss Per Share

 

During fiscal years ending August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019, the Company recorded a net loss. Basic and diluted net loss per share is the same for those periods.

 

Note 5 – Notes Receivable

 

On July 9, 2019, the Company, through its Action Nutraceuticals subsidiary, loaned, Split Tee, LLC (“Split Tee”), a venture associated with Director Edward Manolos, $20,000 to engage in an exploratory research project. An additional $20,000 was supplied to Split Tee on August 23, 2019. The loans carry interest at the rate of 10% per annum and are due in one year for issuance. Because of Mr. Manolos’ association as a director, the Company believes these transactions are defined by 17 CFR § 229.404 - (Item 404) Transactions with related persons, promoters and certain control persons, which would require specific disclosures under the section cited. As of the end of the fiscal year August 31, 2020, the Company determined it is not likely that repayment of the $40,000 note would occur, thus the Company booked an allowance for Bad Debt expense for the amount, bringing the note balance to zero, as of the end of the fiscal year ending August 31, 2020.

A debt discount of $54,212 on the note payable at issuance was calculated based on the present value of the note using an implied interest rate of 10%. A debt discount of $270,886 was recognized. Accordingly, the Company recorded an initial value of its investment in NPE of $1,714,903. At the time the note becomes convertible, the Company will recognize a derivative liability at fair value related to the embedded conversion option at that time. Prior to these transactions, Robert Hymers III and Alan Tsai each sold equity interest representing a total of 18.8% of the outstanding equity interest of NPE to Edward Manolos, a Director and preferred stockholder of the Company in a private transaction. As a result of these two transactions, the Company beneficially controls approximately 37% of the equity of NPE. After this transaction, a venture capital company controls 40% of the equity interests in NPE, the Company, Alan Tsai and Edward Manolos each control 18.8% and one other entity controls 3.5%.

The Company evaluated its interest in NPE as of August 31, 2020 under ASC 810. Management determined that it had a variable interest in NPE, but that NPE does not meet the definition of a variable interest entity, and does not have an indirect voting interest of greater than 50%. Based on these factors, the investment in NPE by the Company, the investment in NPE will be accounted for as an equity method investment under the measurement alternative available under ASC 321 with the Company recording its share of the profits and losses of NPE at each reporting period. The initial investment balance was $1,714,903 based on the initial fair value estimate of the note payable and convertible note payable issued as consideration for the investment. For the three months ended August 31, 2020, the Company recognized no equity method income or losses due and no impairment of the investment.

 

See Note 9 for further discussion of the accounting treatment of the embedded conversion options of the above promissory notes payable as derivative liabilities

Note 9. Derivative Liability and Far Value Measurement

Upon the issuance of the convertible promissory notes with variable conversion prices and fixed conversion prices with reset provisions, the Company determined that the features associated with the embedded conversion option embedded in the debentures should be accounted for at fair value, as a derivative liability, as the Company cannot determine if a sufficient number of shares would be available to settle all potential future conversion transactions.

At the issuance date of the convertible notes payable during the year ended August 31, 2020, the Company estimated the fair value of all embedded derivatives of $1,038,111 using the Black-Scholes Pricing Model based on the following assumptions: (1) dividend yield of 0%, (2) expected volatility of 389.94% to 398.53%, (3) risk-free interest rate of 0.13% to 1.60%, and (4) expected life of 0.75 to three years.

On August 31, 2020, the Company estimated the fair value of the embedded derivatives of $1,125,803 using the Black-Scholes Pricing Model based on the following assumptions: (1) dividend yield of 0%, (2) expected volatility of 385%, (3) risk-free interest rate of 0.12%, and (4) expected life of 0.5 to 1.4 years.

The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 825-10, Financial Instruments (“ASC 825-10”). ASC 825-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and risk of nonperformance. ASC 825-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 825-10 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value. 

  Level 1 — Observable inputs that reflect quoted market prices (unadjusted) for identical assets and liabilities in active markets;

  Level 2 — Observable inputs, other than quoted market prices, that are either directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace for identical or similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets and liabilities; and

  Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity that are significant to the fair value of assets or liabilities.

All items required to be recorded or measured on a recurring basis are based upon Level 3 inputs.

To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is disclosed and is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The Company recognizes its derivative liabilities as Level 3 and values its derivatives using the methods discussed below. While the Company believes that its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, it recognizes that the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date. The primary assumptions that would significantly affect the fair values using the methods discussed are that of volatility and market price of the underlying common stock of the Company.

As of August 31, 2020, the Company did not have any derivative instruments that were designated as hedges.

 The following table provides a summary of changes in fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial liabilities for the nine months ended August 31, 2020:

Balance, August 31, 2019   $ —  
Transfers in due to issuance of convertible promissory notes     1,468,704  
Transfers out due to repayments of convertible promissory notes     (449,389 )
Transfers out due to conversions of convertible promissory notes     (231,632 )
Mark to market to August 31, 2020     787,683  
Balance, August 31, 2020   $ 1,125,803  
Loss on change in derivative liability for the year ended August 31, 2020   $ 338,120  

Fluctuations in the Company’s stock price are a primary driver for the changes in the derivative valuations during each reporting period. As the stock price increases for each of the related derivative instruments, the value to the holder of the instrument generally increases, therefore increasing the liability on the Company’s balance sheet. Additionally, stock price volatility is one of the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of each of the Company’s derivative instruments. The simulated fair value of these liabilities is sensitive to changes in the Company’s expected volatility. Increases in expected volatility would generally result in higher fair value measurement. A 10% change in pricing inputs and changes in volatilities and correlation factors would not result in a material change in our Level 3 fair value.

Note 10 - Commitments and Contingencies

 

The Company has entered into a lease for a production and warehouse facility located in Los Angeles, California to produce such products.

Note 13 – Income Taxes

 

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.

Significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets at August 31, 2020 and 2019 are as follows: 

 

   August 31, 2020  August 31, 2019
Deferred tax assets:

Net deferred tax asset  $—     $—   

 

The Company evaluates its valuation allowance on an annual basis based on projected future operations. When circumstances change and this causes a change in management’s judgment about the realizability of deferred tax assets, the impact of the change on the valuation allowance is reflected in current operations.

 

For federal income tax purposes, the Company has net U.S. operating loss carry forwards at August 31, 2020 available to offset future federal taxable income, if any, of approximately $5,337,000 which will fully expire by the fiscal year ended August 31, 2040.  Accordingly, there is no current tax expense for the nine months ended August 31, 2020. In addition, the Company has research and development tax credit carry forwards of $1,963 at August 31, 2020, which are available to offset federal income taxes and fully expire by August 31, 2040. The utilization of the tax net operating loss carry forwards may be limited due to ownership changes that have occurred as a result of sales of common stock.

 

The effects of state income taxes were insignificant for the twelve months ended August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019.

ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

 

Our Articles of Incorporation provide that we shall indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law and that none of our directors will be personally liable to the Company or its shareholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability:

 

  for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the Company or its shareholders;

  under Nevada General Corporation Law for the unlawful payment of dividends; or

 

  for any transaction from which the director derives an improper personal benefit.

 

These provisions require us to indemnify our directors and officers unless restricted by Nevada law and eliminate our rights and those of our shareholders to recover monetary damages from a director for breach of his or her fiduciary duty of care as a director except in the situations described above. The limitations summarized above, however, do not affect our ability or that of our shareholders to seek non-monetary remedies, such as an injunction or rescission, against a director for breach of his or her fiduciary duty.

 

To the extent that our directors and officers are indemnified under the provisions contained in our bylaws, Nevada law or contractual arrangements against liabilities arising under the Securities Act, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.

 

II-6 
 
 

(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

 

(1.) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

 

(i.) To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

 

(ii.) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

 

(iii.) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

 

(2.) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof;

 

(3.) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering; and

 

 

(4.) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

 

(5.) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

 

(i.) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

 

(ii.) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

 

(iii.) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

 

II-7 
 
 

 

(iv.) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
