Corporate Overview – Formation, Corporate Changes, Material Merger
Organization
We are a Technology Business Incubator (TBI) that provides tech start-ups with seed technology development and executive leadership, making it easier for start-up founders to focus on raising capital, perfecting their business model, and growing their network usership. Our seed technology is an artificial intelligence (AI) powered social network and Ecommerce platform that leverages blockchain technology to increase speed, security, and accuracy on the niche social networks that we license to the companies in our TBI.
On or about August 16th, 2021, we formed a new division that focuses on developing a global decentralized social network and cryptocurrency project, named Decentral Life.
The decentralized social networking platform aims to replace our existing cloud-based SaaS that is licensed to our TBI Licensees. Decentral Life launched the first of many smart contracts on the Ethereum blockchain that work toward achieving our goal to build a decentralized global social networking platform. A smart contract is a computer program or a transaction protocol which is intended to automatically execute, control or document legally relevant events and actions according to the terms of a contract or an agreement. Our first smart contract was launched on the Ethereum blockchain, defining our WDLF utility token. As described in more detail below, WDLF Tokens are Ethereum ERC20 utility tokens, rewarded to users for the time and effort they spend creating content, connecting with others, and influencing their own friends and followers on other mainstream social platforms to join that TBI company’s niche network.
On or about December 1, 2021, we began the process of changing our name from Social Life Network to Decentral Life and doing business as Decentral Life while the name change was being processed by the state of Nevada. On or about March 1, 2022 the state of Nevada completed the name change filing, from Social Life Network, Inc. to Decentral Life, Inc.
Corporate Changes
On February 24, 2004, we merged with Calvert Corporation, a Nevada Corporation, changing our name to Sew Cal Logo, Inc., and moved our domicile from California to Nevada, at which time our common stock became traded under the ticker symbol SEWC.
In June 2014, Sew Cal Logo, Inc. was placed into receivership in Nevada’s 8th Judicial District (White Tiger Partners, LLC et al v. Sew Cal Logo, Inc.et al, Case No A-14-697251-C) (Dept. No.: XIII) (the “Receivership”).
On January 29, 2016, we completed a business combination/merger agreement with Life Marketing, Inc., a Colorado corporation. On April 11th, 2016 we changed our name to Social Life Network, Inc. and changed our ticker symbol from SEWC to WDLF.
On September 20, 2018, we incorporated MjLink.com, Inc. (“MjLink”), a Delaware Corporation. On February 1, 2020, MjLink.com, Inc. filed its Form 1-A Offering Document for a Regulation A Tier 2 initial public offering, which the SEC qualified on September 28, 2020. Since its incorporation in September 2018, MjLink functionally operated as our cannabis and hemp division, which we funded; however, effective as of August 6, 2020, MjLink operated independently from at which time we no longer funded MjLink. As of December 31, 2020 and thereafter, we owned 800,000 Class A common stock shares of MjLink at a value of $0.10 per share for an aggregate value of $80,000. The Shares were issued to us for MjLink’s use of our social networking software from January 2020 through December 2020 for which we charged a license fee. The share count of 800,000 MjLink Class A common stock shares represents approximately 15% of the total outstanding shares issued from MjLink as of December 31, 2021.
On March 4, 2020, our Board of Directors (the “Board”) increased our number of our authorized Common Stock shares from 500,000,000 to 2,500,000,000 Common Stock Shares pursuant to an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation with the state of Nevada, and submitted to Nevada our Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of the Class B Common Stock, providing that each Class B Common Stock Share shall have one-hundred (100) votes on all matters presented to be voted by the holders of Common Stock. The Class B Common Stock Shares only have voting power and otherwise have no equity, cash value, or any other value.
Effective March 4, 2020, our Board unanimously approved the issuance of 25,000,000 Class B Common Stock Shares to Ken Tapp, our Chief Executive Officer, in return for his services as our Chief Executive Officer from February 1, 2016 to February 29, 2020, which shares are equal to two billion five hundred million (2,500,000,000) votes and otherwise have no equity, cash value or any other value.
Effective March 28, 2021, our Board unanimously approved the issuance of fifty million (50,000,000) Class B Common Stock Shares to Ken Tapp, our Chief Executive Officer, in return for his services as our Chief Executive Officer from March 1, 2020 to February 28, 2021, which shares are equal to five billion (5,000,000,000) votes and otherwise have no equity, cash value or any other value. As of the date of this filing, our Chief Executive Officer controls approximately 98% of shareholder votes via his issuance of an aggregate of 75,000,000 Class B Shares and controls over 7,500,000,000 votes.
On May 8, 2020, we filed Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation in Nevada to increase our authorized shares from 2,500,000,000 to 10,000,000,000 Shares and our Preferred Shares from 100,000,000 to 300,000,000 Shares.
On June 30, 2021, our Board unanimously approved adopting the Certificate for Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Certificate”), which Certificate was filed in Nevada on June 30, 2021 and became effective on July 6, 2021. The Certificate, provides that, among other things, that each Preferred A Share shall have the right to convert each Series A Preferred Share into 20 Common Stock Shares and shall have liquidation rights over other series of Preferred Stock.
Our Business
We are a Technology Business Incubator (TBI), which operates through individual SaaS (software as a service) licensing agreements with our technology business incubator startup founders, provides those tech startups with a blockchain and ai powered technology platform to run their own social networking and e-commerce. Through our platform and legal and executive leadership, it is easier for the startup founders to focus on raising their own capital, perfect their business model, and grow their network usership.
From 2015 through 2021, we have thirteen niche social networking companies that participate in our TBI program that depend on the use of our technology platform to operate their business. Each of our TBI participating companies (or licensees) have a primary business goal of growing their network usership to a large enough size that would make them a target for being acquired or merged with by other niche industry companies in the same sector. Alternatively, some of our TBI participating companies might be better suited for an initial public offering or reverse takeover with an existing public company to reach their liquidity event.
To assist our TBI licensees with the usership growth of their niche industry social networks, our blockchain powered platform rewards their users for creating their own private and secure online social experience with WDLF Tokens that are minted through their social networking activity. WDLF Tokens are Ethereum ERC20 utility tokens, rewarded to users for the time and effort they spend creating content, connecting with others, and influencing their own friends and followers on other mainstream social platforms (E.g., Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.) to join that TBI company’s niche network. Starting in 2022, we will begin selling to other companies our software applications that are needed to help them conduct their own digital token distributions, and registered cryptocurrency offerings.
As of December 31, 2021, our TBI companies operate in the Hunting, Fishing, Camping, RV Travel, Motor Racing, Racket Sports, Cycling, Golfing, Cannabis, Hemp, Space Exploration, Soccer, Blockchain NFT, and Residential Real Estate industries.
Revenue Generation
We generate revenues from our TBI licensees by charging a 5% fee on their revenue and taking a 15% non-dilutive common stock position in their company when they reach a liquidity event.
Starting in 2022, we aim to begin generating revenue from the sales of our newly developed ICO SaaS platform. The digital token platform will be sold through a SaaS licensing agreement on an annual basis.
Operations
We currently operate and support the ongoing technology development and maintenance of our SaaS platforms for end-users from more than 120 countries worldwide. Our directors, executives, and niche industry business advisors support each of our TBI licensees. The goal of our operations team is to increase the potential of each TBI licensees’ liquidity event in the shortest amount of time possible.
Target Markets
We have targeted the following industries that fit well with our management experience and software capability:
| ● | Cannabis and Hemp |
| | |
| ● | Travel |
| | |
| ● | Outdoorsman Sports |
| | |
| ● | Racket Sports |
| | |
| ● | Cycling |

| | |
| ● | Commercial space industry |
| | |
| ● | Decentralized finance |
| | |
| ● | Non-fungible tokens (NFT’s) |
| | |
| ● | Residential Real Estate |
Intellectual Property
Our technology platform and associated applications, features and functionality are comprised of proprietary software, code and know-how that are of key importance to our business plan.
Better Practices
We spend a significant amount of time each year with our TBI startup founders and their management teams, developing better business practices in our effort to increase the probability of their success and eventual liquidity events.
Sources and Availability of Products and Names of Principal Suppliers
We currently rely on certain key suppliers and vendors in the support and maintenance of our business model. Management believes it has mitigated the associated risks of these single-source vendor relationships by ensuring that we have access to additional qualified vendors and suppliers to provide like or complementary services.
Dependence on One or a Few Major TBI Licensees
We are not dependent upon one or a few major TBI program licensees and we do not expect to have any significant attrition of TBI licensees. We depend on our own management’s ability to work with our existing and future TBI licensees to help them succeed with their own business model.
Government Regulation
Government regulation is of significant concern for our business. Our management believes it currently possesses all requisite authority to conduct our business successfully while abiding by government regulations.
Cost and Effects of Compliance with Environmental Laws
Our operations are not subject to federal, state or local environmental regulations.
Seasonality of Business
We do not have a seasonal business cycle.
Patents and Intellectual Property/Trademarks/Licenses/Franchises
We do not currently own any patents and have no intention of applying for patents.
Raw Materials
We do not use raw materials in our business.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
An investment in our securities is highly speculative and should be purchased only by persons who can afford to lose their entire investment. Before purchasing any of our securities, you should carefully consider the following factors relating to our business and prospects. If any of the following risks occur, our business, financial condition or operating results could be materially adversely affected. In such case, you may lose all or part of your investment. You should carefully consider the risks described below and the other information in this annual report before in investing in our common stock.
Risks Related to Our Business
Our independent registered public accounting firm has issued a going concern opinion; there is substantial uncertainty that we will continue operations in which case you could lose your investment.
In their report dated December 31, 2021, our independent registered public accounting firm, B F Borgers CPA PC, stated that our financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes that we will be able to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. We had an accumulated deficit of $33,520,912 at December 31, 2021, had a net loss of $2,199,387, and used net cash of $301,869 in operating activities for the 12 months ended December 31, 2021. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our generating profitable operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Our management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with existing cash on hand and public issuance of common stock. Although we may be successful in obtaining financing and/or generating revenue to fund our operations, meet regulatory requirements and achieve commercial goals, there are no assurances that such funding will be achieved at a sufficient level or that we will succeed in our future operations.
If our Social Networking Platform technology becomes obsolete, our ability to license our Platform and generate revenue from it will be negatively impacted.
If our Platform technology becomes obsolete, our results of operations will be adversely affected. The market in which we compete is characterized by rapid technological change, evolving industry standards, introductions of new products, and changes in customer demands that can render existing products obsolete and unmarketable. Our Platform will require continuous upgrading, or our technology will become obsolete, and our business operations will be curtailed or terminate.
Litigation may adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations
From time to time in the normal course of its business operations, we may become subject to litigation that may result in liability material to our financial statements as a whole or may negatively affect our s operating results if changes to our business operations are required. The cost to defend such litigation may be significant and may require a diversion of resources. There also may be adverse publicity associated with litigation that could negatively affect customer perception of our business, regardless of whether the allegations are valid or whether we are ultimately found liable. Insurance may be unavailable at all or in sufficient amounts to cover any liabilities with respect to these or other matters. A judgment or other liability in excess of the insurance coverage for any claims could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
We expect to incur substantial expenses to meet our reporting obligations as a public company.
We estimate that it will cost approximately $300,000 annually to maintain the proper management and financial controls for our filings required as a public reporting company, funds that would otherwise be spent for our business operations. Our public reporting costs may increase over time, which will increase our expenses and may decrease our potential profitability.
We have generated a majority of our revenue in 2021 and 2020 from licensing, event, and digital marketing revenues, respectively; the loss of the majority of our revenues in future periods will negatively affect our results of operations.
Because our Chief Executive Officer holds 75,000,000 votes, he can exert significant control over our business and affairs and have actual or potential interests that may depart from those of investors.
Our Chief Executive Officer beneficially owns approximately 98% of our outstanding voting stock primarily through his ownership of Class B Common Stock Shares. which provides him with significant influence and control over all corporate actions requiring stockholder approval, irrespective of how our other stockholders may vote, including the following actions:
| ● | to elect or defeat the election of our directors; |
| | |
| ● | to amend or prevent amendment of our certificate of incorporation or by-laws; |
| | |
| ● | to effect or prevent a merger, sale of assets or other corporate transaction; and |
| | |
| ● | to control the outcome of any other matter submitted to our stockholders for a vote. |
This concentration of ownership by itself may have the effect of impeding a merger, consolidation, takeover or other business consolidation, or discouraging a potential acquirer from making a tender offer for our common stock, which in turn could reduce our stock price or prevent our stockholders from realizing a premium over our stock price.
We face intense competition since many of our competitors have greater resources than we do.
We face significant competition with respect to our technology platform, including but not limited to Facebook and LinkedIn, which offer a variety of online digital and social networking technology offerings. As such, we expect tech competition to intensify further in the future and we will be subject to competition. Many of our competitors, including the competitors stated above, have greater capital resources, facilities and diversity of services and product lines, which will enable them to compete more effectively in this market. Competition may increase because of consolidation within the industry. We may be unable to differentiate our products and services from those of our competitors, or successfully develop and introduce new products and services that are less costly than, or superior to, those of our competitors, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
We compete with other platforms for market share and for the time and attention of consumers. The proliferation of choices available to consumers for information and business connections has resulted in audience fragmentation and has negatively affected overall consumer demand. We also compete with digital publishers and other forms of media, including social media platforms, search platforms, portals, and digital marketing services. The competition we face has intensified because of the growing popularity of mobile devices, such as smartphones and social-media platforms, and the shift in consumer preference from print media to digital media for the delivery and consumption of content, including video content, websites or use our digital applications directly. Given the ever-growing and rapidly changing number of digital media options available on the Internet, we may be unable to increase our online traffic sufficiently and retain or grow a base of frequent visitors to our websites and applications on mobile devices. In addition, the ever-growing and rapidly changing number of digital media options available on the Internet may lead to technologies and alternatives that we are unable to offer.
The proliferation of new platforms available to advertisers may affect both the amount of advertising that we are able to sell as well as the rates advertisers are willing to pay. Our ability to compete successfully for advertising also depends on our ability to drive scale, engage digital audiences, and prove the value of our advertising and the effectiveness of our digital platforms, including the value of advertising adjacent to high quality content, and on our ability to use our brands to continue to offer advertisers unique, and multi-platform advertising programs. If we are unable to demonstrate to advertisers the continuing value of our digital platforms or offer advertisers unique advertising programs tied to our brands, business, financial condition, and results of operations may be adversely affected.
We will need substantial additional funding to continue our operations, which could result in dilution to our stockholders; we may be unable to raise capital when needed, if at all, which could cause us to have insufficient funds to pursue our operations, or to delay, reduce or eliminate our development of new programs or commercialization efforts.
We expect to incur additional costs associated with operating as a public company and to require substantial additional funding to continue to pursue our business and continue with our expansion plans. We may also encounter unforeseen expenses, difficulties, complications, delays and other unknown factors that may increase our capital needs and/or cause us to spend our cash resources faster than we expect. Accordingly, we expect that we will need to obtain substantial additional funding in order to continue our operations. To date, we have financed our operations entirely through equity investments by founders and other investors and the incurrence of debt, and we expect to continue to do so in the foreseeable future. Additional funding from those or other sources may not be available when or in the amounts needed, on acceptable terms, or at all. If we raise capital through the sale of equity, or securities convertible into equity, it will result in dilution to our existing stockholders, which could be significant depending on the price at which we may be able to sell our securities. If we raise additional capital through the incurrence of additional indebtedness, we will likely become subject to further covenants restricting our business activities, and holders of debt instruments may have rights and privileges senior to those of our equity investors. In addition, servicing the interest and principal repayment obligations under debt facilities could divert funds that would otherwise be available to support development of new programs and marketing to current and potential new clients. If we are unable to raise capital when needed or on attractive terms, we could be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate development of new programs or future marketing efforts. Any of these events could significantly harm our business, financial condition and prospects.
We must successfully maintain and/or upgrade our information technology systems.
We rely on various information technology systems to manage our operations, which subjects us to inherent costs and risks associated with maintaining, upgrading, replacing and changing these systems, including impairment of our information technology, potential disruption of our internal control systems, substantial capital expenditures, demands on management time and other risks of delays or difficulties in upgrading, transitioning to new systems or of integrating new systems into our current systems.
We do not have certain corporate governance matters in place such as an independent board of directors or nominating, audit, or compensation committees, there may be conflicts of interests and corporate governance related risks.
Our Board consists mostly of current executive officers and consultants, which means that we do not have any outside or independent directors. The lack of independent directors:
| ● | May prevent the Board from being independent from management in its judgments and decisions and its ability to pursue the Board responsibilities without undue influence. |
| | |
| ● | May present us from providing a check on management, which can limit management taking unnecessary risks. |
| | |
| ● | Create potential for conflicts between management and the diligent independent decision-making process of the Board. |
| | |
| ● | Present the risk that our executive officers on the Board may have influence over their personal compensation and benefits levels that may not be commensurate with our financial performance. |
| | |
| ● | Deprive us of the benefits of various viewpoints and experience when confronting challenges that we face. |
Because officers serve on our Board of Directors, it will be difficult for the Board to fulfill its traditional role as overseeing management.
Additionally, we do not have a nominating, audit or compensation committee or any such committee comprised of independent directors. The board of directors performs these functions. No members of the board of directors are independent directors. Thus, there is a potential conflict in that board members who are also part of management will participate in discussions concerning management compensation and audit issues that may affect management decisions.
We may have difficulty obtaining officer and director coverage or obtaining such coverage on favorable terms or financially be unable to obtain any such coverage, which may make it difficult for our attracting and retaining qualified members of our board of directors, particularly to serve on our audit committee and compensation committee, and qualified executive officers.
We also expect that being a public company and these new rules and regulations will make it more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and we may be required to accept reduced coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain coverage or financially be unable to obtain such coverage. These factors could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified members of our board of directors, particularly to serve on our audit committee and compensation committee, and qualified executive officers.
Security breaches and other disruptions could compromise the information that we maintain and expose us to liability, which would cause our business and reputation to suffer.
In the ordinary course of our business, we may collect and store sensitive data, including intellectual property, our proprietary business information and that of our customers and business partners, and personally identifiable information of our customers, in our data centers and on its networks. The secure processing, maintenance and transmission of this information is critical to our business strategy, information technology and infrastructure and we may be vulnerable to attacks by hackers or breached due to employee error, malfeasance or other disruptions. Any such breach could compromise our network, services and the information stored there could be accessed, publicly disclosed, lost or stolen. Any such access, disclosure or other loss of information could result in legal claims or proceedings, liability under laws that protect the privacy of personal information, regulatory penalties, and disruption to our operations and the services it provides to customers. This often results in a loss of confidence in our products and services, which could adversely affect our ability to earn revenues and competitive position and could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
We are subject to data privacy and security risks
Our business activities are subject to laws and regulations governing the collection, use, sharing, protection and retention of personal data, which continue to evolve and have implications for how such data is managed. In addition, the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”) continues to expand its application of general consumer protection laws to commercial data practices, including to the use of personal and profiling data from online users to deliver targeted Internet advertisements. Most states have also enacted legislation regulating data privacy and security, including laws requiring businesses to provide notice to state agencies and to individuals whose personally identifiable information has been disclosed as a result of a data breach.
Similar laws and regulations have been implemented in many of the other jurisdictions in which we operate, including the European Union. Recently, the European Union adopted the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), which is intended to provide a uniform set of rules for personal data processing throughout the European Union and to replace the existing Data Protection Directive (Directive 95/46/EC). Fully enforceable as of May 25, 2018, the GDPR expands the regulation of the collection, processing, use and security of personal data, contains stringent conditions for consent from data subjects, strengthens the rights of individuals, including the right to have personal data deleted upon request, continues to restrict the trans-border flow of such data, requires mandatory data breach reporting and notification, increases penalties for non-compliance and increases the enforcement powers of the data protection authorities. In response to such developments, industry participants in the U.S., and Europe have taken steps to increase compliance with relevant industry-level standards and practices, including the implementation of self-regulatory regimes for online behavioral advertising that impose obligations on participating companies, such as us, to give consumers a better understanding of advertisements that are customized based on their online behavior. We continue to monitor pending legislation and regulatory initiatives to ascertain relevance, analyze impact and develop strategic direction surrounding regulatory trends and developments, including any changes required in our data privacy and security compliance programs.
We may be unable to identify, purchase or integrate desirable acquisition targets, future acquisitions may be unsuccessful, and we may not realize the anticipated cost savings, revenue enhancements or other synergies from such acquisitions.
We plan to investigate and acquire strategic businesses with the potential to be accretive to earnings, increase our market penetration, brand strength and its market position or enhancement of our existing product and service offerings. There can be no assurance that we will identify or successfully complete transactions with suitable acquisition candidates in the future. Additionally, if we were to undertake a substantial acquisition, the acquisition may need to be financed in part through additional financing through public offerings or private placements of debt or equity securities or through other arrangements. There is no assurance that the necessary acquisition financing will be available to us on acceptable terms if and when required. Acquisitions could also result in dilutive issuances of equity securities or the incurrence of debt, which could adversely affect our operating results. We may also unknowingly inherit liabilities from acquired businesses or assets that arise after the acquisition and that are not adequately covered by indemnities. In addition, if an acquired business fails to meet our expectations, its operating results, business and financial position may suffer.
If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may be unable to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud; as a result, current and potential stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which would harm our business and the trading price of our stock.
Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our brand and operating results will likely be harmed. We may in the future discover areas of our internal controls that need improvement. We cannot be certain that any measures we implement will ensure that we achieve and maintain adequate controls over our financial processes and reporting in the future. Any failure to implement required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation, could harm our operating results or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations. Inferior internal controls could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information and materially harm our business, which would have a negative effect on our operations.
We may be unable to effectively manage our growth or improve our operational, financial, and management information systems, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
In the near term and contingent upon raising adequate funds or generate the needed revenue, we intend to expand our operations significantly to foster growth. Growth may place a significant strain on our business and administrative operations, finances, management and other resources, as follows:
| ● | The need for continued development of financial and information management systems; |
| ● | The need to manage strategic relationships and agreements with manufacturers, customers and partners; and |
| ● | Difficulties in hiring and retaining skilled management, technical, and other personnel necessary to support and manage the business. |
Should we fail to successfully manage growth could, our results of operations will be negatively affected.
If we fail to protect or develop our intellectual property, business, operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.
Any infringement or misappropriation of our intellectual property could damage its value and limit its ability to compete. We may have to engage in litigation to protect the rights to our intellectual property, which could result in significant litigation costs and require a significant amount of management time and attention. In addition, our ability to enforce and protect our intellectual property rights may be limited in certain countries outside the United States, which could make it easier for competitors to capture market position in such countries by utilizing technologies that are similar to those that we develop.
We may also find it necessary to bring infringement or other actions against third parties to seek to protect its intellectual property rights. Litigation of this nature, even if successful, is often expensive and time-consuming to prosecute and there can be no assurance that we will have the financial or other resources to enforce its rights or prevent other parties from developing similar technology or designing around our intellectual property.
Our trade secrets may be difficult to protect.
Our success depends upon the skills, knowledge, and experience of our technical personnel, consultants and advisors. Because we operate in several highly competitive industries, we rely in part on trade secrets to protect our proprietary technology and processes. However, trade secrets are difficult to protect. We enter into confidentiality or non-disclosure agreements with our corporate partners, employees, consultants, outside scientific collaborators, developers, and other advisors. These agreements generally require that the receiving party keep confidential and not disclose to third party’s confidential information developed by the receiving party or made known to the receiving party by us during the course of the receiving party’s relationship with us. These agreements also generally provide that inventions conceived by the receiving party in the course of rendering services to us will be our exclusive property.
These confidentiality, inventions and assignment agreements may be breached and may not effectively assign intellectual property rights to us. Our trade secrets also could be independently discovered by competitors, in which case will be unable to prevent the use of such trade secrets by our competitors. The enforcement of a claim alleging that a party illegally obtained and was using our trade secrets could be difficult, expensive and time consuming and the outcome would be unpredictable. In addition, courts outside the United States may be less willing to protect trade secrets. The failure to obtain or maintain meaningful trade secret protection could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
The consideration being paid to our management is not based on arms-length negotiation.
The compensation and other consideration we have paid or will be paid to our management has not been determined based on arm’s length negotiations. While management believes that the consideration is fair for the work being performed, we cannot assure that the consideration to management reflects the true market value of its services.
There are risks associated with the proposed expansion of our business.
Any expansion plans that we undertake to increase or expand our operations entail risks, which may negatively impact our potential profitability. Consequently, investors must assume the risk that (i) such expansion may ultimately involve expenditures of funds beyond the resources available to us at that time, and (ii) management of such expanded operations may divert management’s attention and resources away from its existing operations, any of which factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition. We cannot assure investors that our products, services, or controls will be adequate to support anticipated growth of our operations.
Our business and operations and that of the businesses that we may acquire interests in may experience rapid growth; if we fail to manage our growth, our business and operating results could be negatively impacted.
We or the companies from which we may acquire interests from may experience rapid growth in our operations, which may place significant demands on our and those acquired companies’ management, operational and financial infrastructure. If the companies from which we intend to acquire interests do not manage growth, the quality of their products and/or services could materially suffer, which could negatively affect our brand and operating results and that of the companies we intend to acquire interests of. To manage this growth, we and those acquired companies will need to continue to improve operational, financial and management controls and reporting systems and procedures. These systems enhancements and improvements will require significant capital expenditures and allocation of valuable management resources. If the improvements are not implemented successfully, our and those companies’ ability to manage growth will be impaired causing significant additional expenditures.
Acquiring interests in other companies could result in operating difficulties, dilution and other harmful consequences.
We do not have direct experience in acquiring interests of companies. which acquisitions if completed will be material to our financial condition and results of operations and may create material risks, including:
| ● | need to implement or remediate controls, procedures and policies |
| ● | diversion of management’s time and focus from operating our business to acquisition integration challenges |
| ● | retaining employees |
| ● | need to integrate each company’s accounting, management information, human resource and other administrative systems for effective management. |
Should we be unsuccessful in the above integration aspects, the anticipated benefit of our acquiring interests in other companies may not materialize. Future acquisitions or dispositions will likely result in potentially dilutive issuances of our equity securities, the incurrence of debt, contingent liabilities or amortization expenses, or write-offs of goodwill, any of which could harm our financial condition. Future acquisitions may require us to obtain additional equity or debt financing, which may be unavailable on favorable terms or at all.
COVID-19 RELATED RISKS
The outbreak of the coronavirus may negatively impact our business, results of operations and financial condition.
In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China, which has and is continuing to spread throughout China and other parts of the world, including the United States. On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern.” On January 31, 2020, U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Alex M. Azar II declared a public health emergency for the United States to aid the U.S. healthcare community in responding to COVID-19, and on March 11, 2020 the World Health Organization characterized the outbreak as a “pandemic”. The significant outbreak of COVID-19 has resulted in a widespread health crisis that could adversely affect the economies and financial markets worldwide, and could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
The outbreak of the COVID-19 may adversely affect our customers or subscribers and have an adverse effect on our results of operations.
Further, the risks described above could also adversely affect our potential licensee’s financial condition, resulting in reduced spending by our licensee to pay us our license fees. Risks related to an epidemic, pandemic, or other health crisis, such as COVID-19, could negatively impact the results of operations of one or more of our l licensees or potential licensee operations. The ultimate extent of the impact of any epidemic, pandemic or other health crisis on our licensees and our business, financial condition and results of operations will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information that may emerge concerning the severity of such epidemic, pandemic or other health crisis and actions taken to contain or prevent their further spread, among others. These and other potential impacts of an epidemic, pandemic, or other health crisis, such as COVID-19, could therefore materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Certain historical data regarding our business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity does not reflect the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and related containment measures and therefore does not purport to be representative of our future performance
The information included in this Annual report on Form 10-K and our other reports filed with the SEC includes information regarding our business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity as of dates and for periods before and during the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and related containment measures (including quarantines and governmental orders requiring the closure of certain businesses, limiting travel, requiring that individuals stay at home or shelter in place and closing borders). Therefore, certain historical information therefore does not reflect the adverse impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the related containment measures. Accordingly, investors are cautioned not to unduly rely on such historical information regarding our business, results of operations, financial condition or liquidity, as that data does not reflect the adverse impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and therefore does not purport to be representative of the future results of operations, financial condition, liquidity or other financial or operating results of us, or our business.
During 2021, we experienced material decreases in our revenues due to Covid-19
During 2021, we experienced material decreases in our revenues and results of operations due to Covid-19 when comparing our 2020 results to our 2021 financial results. Should this downward Covid-19 related trend continue, our revenues and results of operations will continue to be materially and negatively impacted.
THE OUTBREAK OF COVID-19 HAS RESULTED IN A WIDESPREAD HEALTH CRISIS THAT COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE ECONOMIES AND FINANCIAL MARKETS WORLDWIDE AND COULD EXPONENTIALLY INCREASE THE RISK FACTORS DESCRIBED ABOVE AND BELOW.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR SECURITIES
An investment in our securities is highly speculative.
Our tokens, common and preferred shares are highly speculative in nature, involve a high degree of risk and should be purchased only by persons who can afford to lose the entire amount invested. Before purchasing any of our securities, you should carefully consider the risk factors contained herein relating to our business and prospects. If any of the risks presented herein actually occur, our business, financial condition or operating results could be materially adversely affected. In such case, the trading price of our tokens and common stock could decline at any time, and you may lose all or part of your investment.
There is no active public trading market for our tokens and preferred stock and an active market may never develop.
Our WDLF tokens and preferred stock is not quoted on any trading medium. Consequently, investors may be unable to liquidate their investment or liquidate it at a price that reflects the value of the business. As a result, holders of our securities may not find purchasers for our securities should they attempt to sell their securities. Consequently, only investors having no need for liquidity in their investment should purchase our securities and who can hold our securities for an indefinite period.
You will experience future dilution as a result of future equity offerings.
We may in the future offer additional securities in our company. Although no assurances can be given that we will consummate new financing, in the event we do, or in the event we sell shares of preferred or common stock or other securities convertible into shares of our common stock in the future, additional and substantial dilution will likely occur. In addition, investors purchasing shares or other securities in the future could have rights superior to investors in prior offerings. Subsequent offerings at a lower price, often referred to as a “down round”, could result in additional dilution.
Future issuances of debt securities, which would rank senior to our common stock upon our bankruptcy or liquidation, and future issuances of preferred stock, which would rank senior to our common stock for the purposes of dividends and liquidating distributions, may adversely affect the level of return you may be able to achieve from an investment in our common stock.
In the future, we may attempt to increase our capital resources by offering debt securities. Upon bankruptcy or liquidation, holders of our debt securities, and lenders with respect to other borrowings we may make, would receive distributions of our available assets prior to any distributions being made to holders of our common stock. Moreover, if we issue preferred stock, the holders of such preferred stock could be entitled to preferences over holders of common stock in respect of the payment of dividends and the payment of liquidating distributions. Because our decision to issue debt or preferred securities in any future offering, or borrow money from lenders, will depend in part on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing or nature of any such future offerings or borrowings. Holders of our common stock must bear the risk that any future offerings we conduct or borrowings we make may adversely affect the level of return they may be able to achieve from an investment in our common stock.
External economic factors may have a material adverse impact on our business prospects.
Success can also be affected significantly by changes in local, regional and national economic conditions. Factors such as inflation, labor, energy, real estate costs, the availability and cost of suitable employees, fluctuating interest rates, state and local laws and regulations and licensing requirements and increased competition can also adversely affect us.
The market price of our Common Stock may fluctuate significantly in the future.
We expect that the market price of our Common Stock may fluctuate in response to one or more of the following factors, many of which are beyond our control:
| ● | competitive pricing pressures; |
| | |
| ● | our ability to market our services on a cost-effective and timely basis; |
| | |
| ● | changing conditions in the market; |
| | |
| ● | changes in market valuations of similar companies; |
| | |
| ● | stock market price and volume fluctuations generally; |
| | |
| ● | regulatory developments; |
| | |
| ● | fluctuations in our quarterly or annual operating results; |
| | |
| ● | additions or departures of key personnel; and |
| | |
| ● | future sales of our Common Stock or other securities. |
The price at which you purchase shares of our Common Stock may not be indicative of the price that will prevail in the trading market. Shareholders may experience wide fluctuations in the market price of our securities. These fluctuations may have a negative effect on the market price of our securities and may prevent a shareholder from obtaining a market price equal to the purchase price such shareholder paid when the shareholder attempts to sell our securities in the open market. In these situations, the shareholder may be required either to sell our securities at a market price, which is lower than the purchase price the shareholder paid, or to hold our securities for a longer period than planned. An inactive or low trading market may also impair our ability to raise capital by selling shares of capital stock. You may be unable to sell your shares of Common Stock at or above your purchase price, which may result in substantial losses to you and which may include the complete loss of your investment. Any of the risks described above could adversely affect our sales and profitability and the price of our Common Stock.
Any market that develops in shares of our common stock will be subject to the penny stock regulations and restrictions pertaining to low priced stocks that will create a lack of liquidity and make trading difficult or impossible.
The trading of our securities will be in the over-the-counter market, which is commonly referred to as the OTC Markets as maintained by FINRA. As a result, an investor may find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations as to the price of our securities.
Rule 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act establishes the definition of a “penny stock,” for purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a minimum bid price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to a limited number of exceptions that are not available to us. It is likely that our shares will be penny stocks for the immediately foreseeable future. This classification severely and adversely affects any market liquidity for our common stock.
For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the penny stock rules require that a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks and the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased. In order to approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must obtain financial information and investment experience and objectives of the person and make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and that that person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.
The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prepared by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form, sets forth:
| ● | the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination, and |
| | |
| ● | that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction. |
Disclosure also must be made about the risks of investing in penny stock in both public offerings and in secondary trading and commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Additionally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.
Because of these regulations, broker-dealers may not wish to engage in the above-referenced necessary paperwork and disclosures and/or may encounter difficulties in their attempt to sell shares of our common stock, which may affect the ability of selling shareholders or other holders to sell their shares in any secondary market and have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in any secondary market. These additional sales practice and disclosure requirements could impede the sale of our securities when our securities become publicly traded. In addition, the liquidity for our securities may decrease, with a corresponding decrease in the price of our securities. Our shares, probably, will be subject to such penny stock rules for the foreseeable future and our shareholders will, likely, find it difficult to sell their securities.
If we are unable to establish appropriate internal financial reporting controls and procedures, it could cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations, result in the restatement of our financial statements, harm our operating results, subject us to regulatory scrutiny and sanction, cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information and have a negative effect on the market price for shares of our common stock.
Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and to effectively prevent fraud. We maintain a system of internal control over financial reporting, which is defined as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by our board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Cautionary Note
We have sought to identify what we believe to be the most significant risks to our business, but we cannot predict whether, or to what extent, any of such risks may be realized nor can we guarantee that we have identified all possible risks that might arise. Investors should carefully consider all of such risk factors before making an investment decision with respect to our common stock.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
Our executive and administrative office is located at 3465 Gaylord Court, Suite A509, Englewood, Colorado 80113 and is adequate for our purposes.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise, in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. We are currently involved in the following legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or operating results.
Peak One Opportunity Fund, L.P.
On April 9, 2021, we commenced legal action in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida against Peak One Opportunity Fund, L.P. (“Peak One”) and Jason Goldstein (“Goldstein”), alleging, among other things, that Peak One is acting as an unregistered dealer in violation of Section 15(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”) and, therefore, certain debentures and warrants entered into by and between us and Peak One should be declared void ab initio and, further, that Peak One is liable for recessionary damages to us pursuant to Section 29(b) of the Act.
On June 11, 2021, Peak One and Goldstein filed a motion to dismiss our complaint, which the Court subsequently granted on June 28, 2021, on procedural grounds, and without prejudice, and closed the action for administrative purposes.
On July 2, 2021, we filed an amended complaint against Peak One, Goldstein, Peak One Investments, LLC (“Peak Investments”, and together with Peak One and Goldstein, the “Peak Parties”) and J.H. Darbie & Co. (“Darbie”), along with a motion to reopen the action, alleging, among other things, that the Peak Parties are acting as unregistered dealers in violation of Section 15(a) of the Act.
On July 8, 2021, the Court denied our motion to reopen the action, without prejudice, as the amended complaint contravened the Eleventh Circuit’s prohibition against “shotgun” pleadings.
On July 22, 2021, we filed a motion for clarification and/or for leave to file its second amended complaint.
On August 5, 2021, Peak One and Goldstein filed an opposition to our motion for leave to file a second amended complaint and, further, moved for sanctions pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1927.
We intend to litigate the causes of action asserted in the amended complaint against the Peak Parties and Darbie, including but not limited to Peak One is acting as an unregistered dealer in violation of Section 15(a) of the Act and, therefore, we are entitled to have the debentures and warrants entered into by and between us and Peak One declared void ab initio and, further, that Peak One is liable to us for recessionary damages to the Company pursuant to Section 29(b) of the Act. We contend that the foregoing arguments are brought in good faith, particularly in light of recent SEC enforcement actions against other unregistered dealers.
LGH Investments, LLC
On April 19, 2021, we commenced legal action in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California against LGH Investments, LLC (“LGH”) and Lucas Hoppel (“Hoppel”) alleging, among other things, that LGH is acting as unregistered dealer in violation of Section 15(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”) and, therefore, certain convertible promissory notes and share purchase agreements entered into by and between the Company and Peak One should be declared void ab initio and, further, that Peak One is liable for recessionary damages to the Company pursuant to Section 29(b) of the Act.
On June 25, 2021, LGH and Hoppel filed a motion to dismiss our complaint.
On July 8, 2021, we filed a motion for extension of time to respond to LGH and Hoppel’s motion to dismiss our complaint. The Court granted our motion for an extension of time on July 13, 2021.
On July 16, 2021, we filed our first amended complaint against LGH, Hoppel, and J.H. Darbie (“Darbie”) alleging, among other things, that LGH is acting as unregistered dealers in violation of Section 15(a) of the Act.
In turn, on July 23, 2021, the Court denied LGH and Hoppel’s motion to dismiss as moot.
We intend to litigate the causes of action asserted in the amended complaint against LGH, Hoppel, and Darbie, including but not limited to LGH is acting as an unregistered dealer in violation of Section 15(a) of the Act and, therefore, we are entitled to have the convertible promissory notes and share purchase agreements entered into by and between us and Peak One declared void ab initio and, further, that LGH is liable to the Company for recessionary damages to the Company pursuant to Section 29(b) of the Act. We contend that the foregoing arguments are brought in good faith, particularly in light of recent SEC enforcement actions against other unregistered dealers.
We know of no material pending legal proceedings to which we or our subsidiary is a party or of which any of our properties, or the properties of our subsidiary, is the subject. In addition, we do not know of any such proceedings contemplated by any governmental authorities.

PART II
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
Market information
Our common stock is not traded on any exchange but is currently available for trading in the over-the-counter market and is quoted on the OTC Markets under the symbol “WDLF” Trading in stocks quoted on these markets is often thin and is characterized by wide fluctuations in trading prices due to many factors that may have little to do with a company’s operations or business prospects.
The SEC also has 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 listed on certain national exchanges, provided that the current price and volume information with respect to transactions in that security is provided by the applicable exchange or system). The penny stock rules require a broker/dealer, before effecting a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker/dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker/dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker/dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing before effecting the transaction, and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for shares of our common stock. As a result of these rules, investors may find it difficult to sell their shares
Set forth below are the range of high and low bid quotations for the periods indicated as reported by the OTC Bulletin Board. The market quotations reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commissions and may not necessarily represent actual transactions.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA
Not applicable.
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes that appear elsewhere in this Annual Report. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include those discussed below and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form10-K.
Overview
We are a Nevada corporation formed on August 30, 1985. Our headquarters are in Englewood, Colorado. We have been engaged in our current business model since June of 2016, as a result of our having been discharged from a receivership and acquiring Life Marketing, Inc., which was in a different industry as our previous business.
We have experienced recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception, including in our current business model. We anticipate that our expenses will increase as we ramp up our expansion, which likely will lead to additional losses, until such time that we approach profitability, or which there are no assurances. We have relied on equity and debt financing to fund operations to-date. There can be no guarantee that we will ever become profitable, or that adequate additional financing will be realized in the future or otherwise may be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. If we are unable to raise capital when needed, we would be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate our expansion efforts. We will need to generate significant revenues to achieve profitability, of which there are no assurances.
Trends and Uncertainties
Our business is subject to the trends and uncertainties associated with expansion of niche industry social networks and ecommerce solutions are increasing in popularity and availability. At some point, industry saturation of technology solutions that we provide to, and support for TBI participant tech startup companies will make it more difficult for our business model to expand. This will force our company to innovate new technology solutions, which will undoubtedly cost more money to fund.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that we will be able to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. We had an accumulated deficit of $33,520,912 at December 31, 2021, had a net loss of $2,119,387, and used net cash of $ 310,869 in operating activities for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our generating profitable operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Our management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with existing cash on hand. While we believe that we will be successful generating revenue to fund our operations, meet regulatory requirements and achieve commercial goals, there are no assurances that we will succeed in our future operations.
We will attempt to overcome the going concern opinion by increasing our TBI licensing to additional tech company startups, thereby increasing our revenues, which will increase our expenses and lead to possible net losses. There is no assurance that we will ever be profitable.
COMPARATIVE RESULTS FOR FISCAL YEARS
Results of Operations for the 12-month periods ended December 31, 2021 and 2020
Revenues
For the 12-month period ending December 31, 2021, we recognized revenue of $292,139 compared to $274,948 of revenue for the same 12-month period ended December 31, 2020. The $17,191 increase is primarily attributable to licensing revenue increasing by $42,139 in FY2021 compared to FY 2020 offset by no digital subscription revenue in FY2021 compared to $24,948 of digital subscription revenue in FY2020.
For the 12-month period ending December 31, 2021, we recognized $0 in digital subscription revenue compared to $24,948 for the 3-month period ending December 31, 2020. The $24,948 or 100% decrease in digital subscription revenue is attributable to __.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold was $22,611 for the 12-month period ending December 31, 2021 compared to $0 the 12-month period ending December 31, 2020, representing an increase of $22,511 or 100%. The 100% increase of costs of goods sold is attributable to the new Decentral Life division and WDLF Token launch.
Operating Expenses
Compensation expense decreased by $81,831 or 60% to $52,581 for the 12-month period ending December 31, 2021 from $134,512 for the 12-month period ending December 31, 2020. The decrease is attributable to changing from a full-time CFO position to a part-time contracted position.
Sales and marketing expense increased $9,008 or 84% to $19,711 for the 12-month period ending December 31, 2021 from $10,703 for the 12-month period ending December 31, 2020. The increase is primarily attributable to additional online advertising campaigns for the new Decentral Life division and WDLF Token launch.
General and administrative expense increased by $213,122 or 54% to $601,447 for the 12-month period ending December 31, 2021 from $388,325 for the 12-month period ending December 31, 2020. The $213,122 increase is primarily attributable to the new Decentral Life division and WDLF Token launch.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities amounted to $310,450 during the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to $364,285 during the year ended December 31, 2021.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the shareholders and the board of directors of Social Life Network, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Social Life Network, Inc. as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Substantial Doubt about the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a significant accumulated deficit. In addition, the Company continues to experience negative cash flows from operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our 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 the 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 the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our 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 financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments.
We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation
The Company’s financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include the estimated useful lives of property and equipment. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, the balances of which at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company continually monitors its banking relationships and consequently have not experienced any losses in its accounts. The Company is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash.
Cash and cash equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. On December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company’s cash equivalents totaled $776 and $193 respectively.
Accounts Receivable
Revenues that have been recognized but not yet received are recorded as accounts receivable. Losses on receivables will be recognized when it is more likely than not that a receivable will not be collected. An allowance for estimated uncollectible amounts will be recognized to reduce the amount of receivables to its net realizable value when considered necessary. Any allowance for uncollectible amounts is evaluated quarterly.
Fair value of financial instruments
The Company follows paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to measure the fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three (3) broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three (3) levels of fair value hierarchy defined by Paragraph 820-10-35-37 are described below:
Level 1: | Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. |
| |
Level 2: | Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. |
| |
Level 3: | Pricing inputs that are generally observable inputs and not corroborated by market data. |
The carrying amount of our financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, prepaid expenses and accrued expenses approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments. Our notes payable approximates the fair value of such instruments based upon management’s best estimate of interest rates that would be available to us for similar financial arrangements.
The Company does not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring or a non-recurring basis as of December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020.
Revenue recognition
The Company follows paragraph 605-15-25 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for revenue recognition when the right of return exists. We will recognize revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. We consider revenue realized or realizable and earned when all of the following criteria are met: (i) The seller’s price to the buyer is substantially fixed or determinable at the date of sale, (ii) The buyer has paid the seller, or the buyer is obligated to pay the seller and the obligation is not contingent on resale of the product. If the buyer does not pay at time of sale and the buyer’s obligation to pay is contractually or implicitly excused until the buyer resells the product, then this condition is not met., (iii) The buyer’s obligation to the seller would not be changed in the event of theft or physical destruction or damage of the product, (iv) The buyer acquiring the product for resale has economic substance apart from that provided by the seller. This condition relates primarily to buyers that exist on paper, that is, buyers that have little or no physical facilities or employees. It prevents entities from recognizing sales revenue on transactions with parties that the sellers have established primarily for the purpose of recognizing such sales revenue, (v) The seller does not have significant obligations for future performance to directly bring about resale of the product by the buyer, and (vi) The amount of future returns can be reasonably estimated.
Income taxes
The Company follows Section 740-10-30 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the fiscal year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the fiscal years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the Statements of Income in the period that includes the enactment date.
On December 22, 2018, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) was signed into law by the President of the United States. TCJA is a tax reform act that among other things, reduced corporate tax rates to 21 percent effective January 1, 2018. FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes, requires deferred tax assets and liabilities to be adjusted for the effect of a change in tax laws or rates in the year of enactment, which is the year in which the change was signed into law. Accordingly, we adjusted its deferred tax assets and liabilities at March 31, 2020, using the new corporate tax rate of 21 percent.
The Company adopted section 740-10-25 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Section 740-10-25”) with regards to uncertainty income taxes. Section 740-10-25 addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under Section 740-10-25, we may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent (50%) likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Section 740-10-25 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim periods and requires increased disclosures. We had no material adjustments to its liabilities for unrecognized income tax benefits according to the provisions of Section 740-10-25.
Stock-based Compensation
The Company accounts for equity-based transactions with nonemployees under the provisions of ASC Topic No. 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees (“ASC 505-50”). ASC 505-50 establishes that equity-based payment transactions with nonemployees shall be measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The fair value of common stock issued for payments to nonemployees is measured at the market price on the date of grant. The fair value of equity instruments, other than common stock, is estimated using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. In general, we recognize the fair value of the equity instruments issued as deferred stock compensation and amortize the cost over the term of the contract.
The Company accounts for employee stock-based compensation in accordance with the guidance of FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation, which requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values. The fair value of the equity instrument is charged directly to compensation expense and credited to additional paid-in capital over the period during which services are rendered.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share
Net income (loss) per common share is computed pursuant to section 260-10-45 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially outstanding shares of common stock during the period.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN
The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that it will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. As of December 31, 2021 we had $776 of cash on hand an accumulated deficit of $33,520,912 and a loss from continuing operations of $2,119,387. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its generating profitable operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet obligations and repay liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. The Company’s management intends to finance operating costs over the next year with the public issuance of common stock and related party loans. While the Company believes that it will be successful in obtaining the necessary financing and generating revenue to fund its operations, meet regulatory requirements and achieve commercial goals, there are no assurances that such additional funding will be achieved or that it will succeed in its future operations. The Company’s financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties.
NOTE 4 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Other than as disclosed below, there have been no transactions, since January 1, 2021, or currently proposed transaction, in which our company was or is to be a participant and the amount involved exceeds $5,000 or one percent of our total assets at December 31, 2021, and in which any of the following persons had or will have a direct or indirect material interest:

The Company has Technology Business Incubator (TBI) license agreements with MjLink.com Inc., LikeRE.com Inc., HuntPost.com Inc., NetQub, Inc., RacketStar.com Inc., FutPost.com Inc., GolfLynk.com Inc., CycleFans.com Inc., WEnRV.com Inc., RaceScene.com Inc., and SpaceZE.com Inc., which agreements provide that the Company’s TBI licensees pay us a license fee of 5% percentage of annual revenues generated, and 15% of their common stock, issuable immediately prior to a liquidity event such as an IPO or sale of 51% or more, of a licensee’s common stock. The 15% common stock payment is non-dilutive prior to a liquidity event described above. The Company’s Chief Executive Office, Kenneth Tapp, owns less than 1% of our outstanding shares and is a board member of each of its TBI licensees. Ken Tapp owns less than 9.99% of the outstanding common stock in each of the Company’s licensees. Pricing for the license agreements was established by the Company’s board of directors. This type of licensing agreement is standard for technology incubators and tech start-up accelerators.
The Company’s related party revenue year-to-date for Fiscal Year 2021 is $292,139 or 100.0% of its gross revenue.

As noted in Note 8, the Company completed a December 31, 2020 Division Spin-Off Agreement (“Spin-Off Agreement) between MjLink.com, Inc. (“MjLink”) and the Company whereby the Parties agreed that the Company would cease operating MjLink as its r cannabis division. and going forward MjLink would conduct its own operations (the “Spin-Off”). The Company recorded a loss from discontinued operations of $-0- and $27,700 during the year ended December 31, 2021. In connection with the Spin-Off, MjLink issued the Company 800,000 or 15.17% of its outstanding shares for MjLink’s use of the Company’s SaaS license from January 1st 2020 to December 31, 2020. Ken Tapp is the Company’s and MjLink’s Chief Executive Officer and thus the transaction was treated as a related party transaction. Thereafter, to reflect the true intention of the Parties to the Spin-Off Agreement, the Parties then agreed in an Amended Spin-Off Agreement to reflect an effective date of 12:01 am on January 1, 2021 of the Spin-Off transaction (“Effective Date”). Apart from the Effective Date, there were no further changes to the Spin-Off Agreement.

Thereafter, to reflect the true intention of the Parties to the Spin-Off Agreement, the Parties then agreed in an Amended Spin-Off Agreement to reflect an effective date of 12:01 am on January 1, 2021 of the Spin-Off transaction (“Effective Date”). Apart from the Effective Date, there were no further changes to the Spin-Off Agreement.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by paragraph (b) of Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), our chief executive officer, who is our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this annual report on Form 10-K. Based upon that evaluation, our chief executive officer, concluded that, as at December 31, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective: (1) to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (2) to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The conclusion reached by our chief executive officer was a result of the material weaknesses described below.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. We have identified the following material weaknesses:
| (i) | inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment; and |
| | |
| (ii) | insufficient staffing resources resulting in financial statement closing process. |
To address these material weaknesses, our chief executive officer performed additional analyses and other procedures, including retaining the assistance of qualified accounting professionals to assist with the preparation of our financial statements, to ensure that the financial statements included herein fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Accordingly, we believe that the financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
Remediation of Material Weaknesses
We intend to take appropriate and reasonable steps to make the necessary improvements to remediate these deficiencies. We intend to consider the results of our remediation efforts and related testing as part of our year-end 2020 assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.
Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties has not always been possible and may not be economically feasible. However, we are in the process of implementing processes and procedures intended to mitigate any material weaknesses identified.
Subject to receipt of additional financing, we intend to undertake the below remediation measures to address the material weaknesses described in this Form 10-K. Such remediation activities include the following:
| (i) | we intend to update the documentation of our internal control processes, including formal risk assessment of our financial reporting processes; and |
| | |
| (ii) | we intend to implement procedures pursuant to which we can ensure segregation of duties and hire additional resources to ensure appropriate review and oversight. |
Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within our company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.
Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer conducted an assessment, including testing, using the criteria in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013), issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Our system of internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.
Based on our evaluation under the framework in COSO, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting were ineffective as of December 31, 2021 due to the above-noted material weaknesses with respect to disclosure controls and procedures. The weaknesses and their related risks are not uncommon in a company of our size because of the limitations in the size and number of staff. We believe we have taken initial steps to mitigate these risks by consulting outside advisors where necessary.
Our management believes that because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions and that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control over financial reporting was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our officers and directors and persons who own more than 10% of the outstanding Shares to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership concerning their Shares with the SEC and to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. We are required to disclose delinquent filings of reports by such persons.
Based solely on the copies of such reports and amendments thereto received by us, or written representations that no filings were required, we believe that all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to our executive officers and directors and 10% stockholders were met for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Code of Ethics
We have adopted a formal code of ethics within the meaning of Item 406 of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act, that applies to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions that establishes, among other things, procedures for handling actual or apparent conflicts of interest.
Committees of Board of Directors
Audit
We do not have an audit committee that provides independent review and oversight of a company’s financial reporting processes, internal controls, and independent auditors. Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting. Our internal control over financial reporting was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
Governance
We do not have any defined policy or procedure requirements for our stockholders to submit recommendations or nominations for directors. We do not currently have any specific or minimum criteria for the election of nominees to our board of directors and we do not have any specific process or procedure for evaluating such nominees. Our board of directors assesses all candidates, whether submitted by management or stockholders, and makes recommendations for election or appointment.
Compensation
Our board of directors is responsible for determining compensation for the directors of our company to ensure it reflects the responsibilities and risks of being a director of a public company.
Other Board Committees
We have no committees of our board of directors.
A stockholder who wishes to communicate with our board of directors may do so by directing a written request to the address appearing on the first page of this annual report.
Corporate Governance
General
Our board of directors believes that good corporate governance improves corporate performance and benefits all stockholders. Canadian National Policy 58-201 Corporate Governance Guidelines provides non-prescriptive guidelines on corporate governance practices for reporting issuers such as the Company. In addition, Canadian National Instrument 58-101 Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices prescribes certain disclosure by our company of its corporate governance practices. This disclosure is presented below.
Orientation and Continuing Education
We have an informal process to orient and educate new recruits to the board regarding their role on the board, our committees and our directors, as well as the nature and operations of our business. This process provides for an orientation with key members of the management staff, and further provides access to materials necessary to inform them of the information required to carry out their responsibilities as a board member. This information includes the most recent board approved budget, the most recent annual report, the audited financial statements and copies of the interim quarterly financial statements.
The board does not provide continuing education for its directors. Each director is responsible to maintain the skills and knowledge necessary to meet his obligations as director.
Ethical Business Conduct
We have adopted a formal code of ethics within the meaning of Item 406 of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, that applies to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions that establishes, among other things, procedures for handling actual or apparent conflicts of interest.
We have found that the fiduciary duties placed on individual directors by our governing corporate legislation and the common law and the restrictions placed by applicable corporate legislation on an individual director’s participation in decisions of the board of directors in which the director has an interest have been sufficient to ensure that the board of directors operates in the best interests of our company.
Nomination of Directors
As of December 31, 2021, we had not affected any material changes to the procedures by which our stockholders may recommend nominees to our board of directors. Our board of directors does not have a policy with regards to the consideration of any director candidates recommended by our stockholders. Our board of directors has determined that it is in the best position to evaluate our company’s requirements as well as the qualifications of each candidate when the board considers a nominee for a position on our board of directors. If stockholders wish to recommend candidates directly to our board, they may do so by sending communications to the president of our company at the address on the cover of this annual report.
Compensation
Our board of directors is responsible for determining compensation for the directors of our company to ensure it reflects the responsibilities and risks of being a director of a public company.
Other Board Committees
We do not have an audit committee that provides independent review and oversight of a company’s financial reporting processes, internal controls, and independent auditors
We have no committees of our board of directors. We do not have any defined policy or procedure requirements for our stockholders to submit recommendations or nominations for directors. We do not currently have any specific or minimum criteria for the election of nominees to our board of directors and we do not have any specific process or procedure for evaluating such nominees. Our board of directors assesses all candidates, whether submitted by management or stockholders, and makes recommendations for election or appointment.
A stockholder who wishes to communicate with our board of directors may do so by directing a written request to the address appearing on the first page of this annual report.
Assessments
The board intends that individual director assessments be conducted by other directors, taking into account each director’s contributions at board meetings, service on committees, experience base, and their general ability to contribute to one or more of our company’s major needs. However, due to our stage of development and our need to deal with other urgent priorities, the board has not yet implemented such a process of assessment.
Director Independence
We are not currently listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market, which requires independent directors. In evaluating the independence of our members and the composition of the committees of our board of directors, we utilize the definition of “independence” as that term is defined by applicable listing standards of the Nasdaq Stock Market and Securities and Exchange Commission rules, including the rules relating to the independence standards of an audit committee and the non-employee director definition of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
According to the Nasdaq definition, we believe Brian Lazarus is an independent director because he is not an officer of our company and not a beneficial owner of a material amount of shares of our common stock and has not received compensation from us in excess of the relevant limits. We believe Lynn Murphy is an independent director because he is not our officer and not a beneficial owner of a material amount of our common stock shares, and we have not paid him compensation in excess of the relevant limits. We believe Britt Glassburn is an independent director because he is not our officer and not a beneficial owner of a material amount of shares of our common stock, and we have not paid him compensation in excess of the relevant limits. We have determined that Kenneth Tapp and Gregory Todd Markey are not independent because they are our employees and they receive compensation directly or indirectly from us for consulting and employment services, respectively.
Our board of directors expects to continue to evaluate its independence standards and whether and to what extent the composition of our board of directors and its committees meets those standards. We ultimately intend to appoint such persons to our board and committees of our board as are expected to be required to meet the corporate governance requirements imposed by a national securities exchange. Therefore, we intend that a majority of our directors will be independent directors of which at least one director will qualify as an “audit committee financial expert,” within the meaning of Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K, as promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
