ITEM 2.    MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included herein. In connection with, and because we desire to take advantage of, the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, we caution readers regarding certain forward looking statements in the following discussion and elsewhere in this report and in any other statement made by, or on our behalf, whether or not in future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Forward looking statements are statements not based on historical information and which relate to future operations, strategies, financial results or other developments. Forward looking statements are necessarily based upon estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control and many of which, with respect to future business decisions, are subject to change. These uncertainties and contingencies can affect actual results and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward looking statements made by, or on our behalf. We disclaim any obligation to update forward looking statements.

Overview and History

We were incorporated in the State of Colorado on August 31, 2006 under the name “Mountain West Business Solutions, Inc.”  During our fiscal year ended July 31, 2009 our business was to provide management consulting with regard to accounting, computer and general business issues for small and home-office based companies.  Effective October 15, 2009, we executed an agreement to acquire Sunshine Biopharma, Inc., a Colorado corporation (“SBI”), in exchange for the issuance of 21,962,000 shares of our Common Stock and 850,000 shares of Convertible Preferred Stock, each convertible into twenty (20) shares of our Common Stock (the “Agreement”).  As a result of this transaction our officers and directors resigned their positions with us and were replaced by our current management.  Following completion of this transaction we changed our name to “Sunshine Biopharma, Inc.”.  On December 21, 2011, Advanomics Corporation, a privately held Canadian company (“Advanomics”), and our licensor, exercised its right to convert the 850,000 shares of Series “A” Preferred Stock it held in our Company into 17,000,000 shares of Common Stock.

Our principal place of business is located at 469 Jean-Talon West, 3rd Floor, Montreal, Quebec, Canada H3N 1R4.  Our phone number is (514) 764-9698 and our website address is www.sunshinebiopharma.com.

We have not been subject to any bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceeding.

Results Of Operations

Comparison of Results of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013

For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 we did not generate any revenues.

General and administrative expenses during the six month period ended June 30, 2014 were $1,171,387, compared to general and administrative expense of $1,072,984 incurred during the six month period ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $98,403. This relatively modest increase is the net result of an increase in the cost of some operations and a decrease in others.  The operations which saw a decrease in cost include (i) consulting fees of $326,000 incurred during the 2014 period compared to $684,610 incurred during the similar period in 2013; and (ii) license fees of $153,333 payable to Advanomics Corporation were incurred during the six months period of 2014 compared to $325,000 incurred in the same period of 2013.  Expenses which increased in the six months period ended June 30, 2014 compared to the same period of 2013 include (i) $323,000 in research and development costs in the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $23,400 during the similar period in 2013; (ii) $214,777 in legal fees incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $24,6894 during the six months ended June 30, 2013, primarily as a result of our attempts to re-domicile into Canada, several registration statements we filed with the SEC and the cost of defending against litigation; and (iii) $100,000 in public relations costs incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to nil for the similar period in 2013.  Most of our other expenses remained relatively constant during the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the similar period in 2013.  

We also incurred $148,257 in interest expense during the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $5,705 in interest expense during the similar period in 2013.  Finally, in the six months ended June 30, 2013 we incurred $548,951 in costs associated with a beneficial conversion feature to our then outstanding convertible debentures.  No such costs were incurred in 2014.

As a result, we incurred a net loss of $1,319,644 (approximately $0.02 per share) for the six month period ended June 30, 2014, compared to a net loss of $1,627,640 (approximately $0.03 per share) during the six month period ended June 30, 2013.

Comparison of Results of Operations for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013

For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 we did not generate any revenues.

General and administrative expenses during the three month period ended June 30, 2014 were $765,513, compared to general and administrative expense of $152,593 incurred during the three month period ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $612,920. This increase is attributable increased costs across the board, including (i) $323,000 in research and development (R&D) activities undertaken during the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to no costs associated with R&D during the similar period in 2013;  (ii) increase in legal fees of approximately $94,405 arising from the filing of registration statements with the SEC during this period, as well as the costs of defending litigation brought against us; and (iii) increase of approximately $30,000 in  accounting fees, $65,000 in licensing fees, and $100,000 in public relations costs. We also incurred $52,875 in interest expense during the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $375 in interest expense during the similar period in 2013.  

As a result, we incurred a net loss of $818,388 (approximately $0.01 per share) for the three month period ended June 30, 2014, compared to a net loss of $152,968 (less than $0.01 per share) during the three month period ended June 30, 2013.

Because we did not generate any revenues since our inception, following is our Plan of Operation.

Plan of Operation

We are currently a pharmaceutical company focused on the research, development and commercialization of drugs for the treatment of various forms of cancer.  The preclinical studies for our lead compound, Adva-27a, a multi-purpose antitumor compound, were successfully completed in late 2011.  We are now continuing our clinical development of Adva-27a by conducting the next sequence of steps comprised of Good Manufacturing Practice (“GMP”) manufacturing, Investigational New Drug (“IND”)-enabling studies, regulatory filing and Phase I clinical trials.  We plan to conduct our Phase I clinical trials for Adva-27a at the Jewish General Hospital, Montreal, Canada, one of McGill University’s Hospital Centers.  The planned indication will be pancreatic cancer in parallel to multidrug resistant breast cancer as Adva-27a has shown a positive effect on both of these cancer types for which there is currently little or no treatment options available. See “Clinical Trials” below.

We have licensed our technology on an exclusive basis from Advanomics Corporation, and we are planning to initiate our own research and development program as soon as practicable once financing is in place.  There are no assurances that we will obtain the financing necessary to allow us to implement this aspect of our business plan, or to enter clinical trials. See Part I, Item 2, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition-Liquidity and Capital Resources below.

Carbon-Difluoride Platform Technology

Many therapeutically important compounds contain diester bonds that link different parts of the molecule together.  Diester bonds are naturally unstable often leading to suboptimal performance when the molecule is administered to patients.  Diester bonds have specific six-dimensional, as well as electrostatic properties that cannot be easily mimicked by other bonds.  Bonds that do not mimic the diester bond correctly invariably render the compound inactive.  In collaboration with Institut National des Sciences Appliquées de Rouen in France (“INSA”), Advanomics Corporation has developed a way to replace the diester bond with a Carbon-Difluoride bond which acts as a diester isostere.  An isostere is a different chemical structure that mimics the properties of the original.  In the body, Carbon-Difluoride compounds are resistant to metabolic degradation but recognized similarly to the diester compounds (see Figure 1).

While no assurances can be provided, we are planning to expand our product line through acquisitions and/or in-licensing as well as in-house research and development.

Our Lead Compound (Adva-27a)

Our initial drug candidate is Adva-27a, a GEM-difluorinated C-glycoside derivative of Podophyllotoxin, targeted for various forms of cancer.  If we are successful in our current financing efforts, Adva-27a is expected to enter Phase I clinical trials for pancreatic cancer and multidrug resistant breast cancer in mid to late 2015 (see “Clinical Development Path” and “Clinical Trials” below).  Etoposide, which is also a derivative of Podophyllotoxin, is currently on the market and is used to treat various types of cancer including leukemia, lymphoma, testicular cancer, lung cancer, brain cancer, prostate cancer, bladder cancer, colon cancer, ovarian cancer, liver cancer and several other forms of cancer.  Like Etoposide, Adva-27a is a Topoisomerase II inhibitor; however, unlike Etoposide and other anti-tumor drugs currently in use, Adva-27a is able to destroy multidrug resistant cancer cells.  Adva-27a is a new chemical entity and has been shown to have distinct and more desirable biological properties compared to Etoposide.  Most notably, Adva-27a is very effective against multidrug resistant breast cancer cells while Etoposide has no activity against this aggressive form of cancer (see Figure 2).  In other side-by-side studies against Etoposide as a reference, Adva-27a showed markedly improved cell killing activity in various other cancer types, particularly prostate, colon and lung cancer (see Table 1).  Our preclinical studies to date have shown that:

Adva-27a is effective at killing different types of multidrug resistant cancer cells, including:
-  
Breast Cancer Cells (MCF-7/MDR)

-  
Small Cell Lung Cancer Cells (H69AR)
-  
Uterine Cancer (MES-SA/Dx5)

Adva-27a is unaffected by P-Glycoprotein, the enzyme responsible for making cancer cells resistant to anti-tumor drugs.

Adva-27a has excellent clearance time (half-life = 54 minutes) as indicated by human microsomes stability studies and pharmacokinetics data in rats.

Adva-27a clearance is independent of Cytochrome P450, a mechanism that is less likely to produce toxic intermediates.

Adva-27a is an excellent inhibitor of Topoisomerase II with an IC50 of only 13.7 micromolar (this number has recently been reduce to 1.44 micromolar as a result of resolving the two isomeric forms of Adva-27a).

Adva-27a has shown excellent pharmacokinetics profile as indicated by studies done in rats.

Adva-27a does not inhibit tubulin assembly.

These and other preclinical data have been published in ANTICANCER RESEARCH, a peer-reviewed International Journal of Cancer Research and Treatment.  The manuscript entitled “Adva-27a, a Novel Podophyllotoxin Derivative Found to Be Effective Against Multidrug Resistant Human Cancer Cells” appeared in print in the October 2012 issue of the journal [ANTICANCER RESEARCH 32: 4423-4432 (2012)].  A copy of the full manuscript as it appeared in the journal is available on our website at www.sunshinebiopharma.com.

Clinical Development Path

The early stage preclinical studies for our lead compound, Adva-27a, were successfully completed in late 2011 and the results have recently been published [ANTICANCER RESEARCH 32: 4423-4432 (2012)].  We are now continuing our clinical development program of Adva-27a by conducting the next sequence of steps comprised of the following:

GMP Manufacturing of 1 kilogram for use in IND-Enabling Studies and Phase I Clinical Trials
IND-Enabling Studies
Regulatory Filing (Fast-Track Status Anticipated)
Phase I Clinical Trials (Multidrug Resistant Breast Cancer Indication)
 
Clinical Trials

Adva-27a’s initial indication will be pancreatic cancer and multidrug resistant breast cancer for which there are currently little or no treatment options.  In June 2011 we concluded an agreement with McGill University’s Jewish General Hospital in Montreal, Canada to conduct Phase I clinical trials for this indication.  All aspects of the planned clinical trials in Canada will employ U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) standards at all levels.  As a result of the Dutchess Agreement described below, we now anticipate that Phase I clinical trials will commence in mid to late 2015 and we estimate that it will take 18 months to complete, at which time we, together with our licensor, expect to file for limited marketing approval with the regulatory authorities in Canada and the FDA in the U.S.  See “Marketing,” below.

Marketing

According to the American Cancer Society, nearly 1.5 million new cases of cancer are diagnosed in the U.S. each year.  Given the terminal and limited treatment options available for the multidrug resistant breast cancer indication we are planning to study, we anticipate being granted limited marketing approval (“compassionate-use”) for our Adva-27a following receipt of funding and a successful Phase I clinical trial.  There are no assurances that either will occur.  Such limited approval will allow us to make the drug available to various hospitals and health care centers for experimental therapy and/or “compassionate-use”, thereby generating some revenues in the near-term.

We believe that upon successful completion of Phase I Clinical Trials we may receive one or more offers from large pharmaceutical companies to buyout or license our drug.  However, there are no assurances that our Phase I Trials will be successful, or if successful, that any pharmaceutical companies will make an acceptable offer to us.  In the event we do not consummate such a transaction, we will require significant capital in order to manufacture and market our new drug.

Intellectual Property

We are the exclusive licensee for the U.S. territory of Advanomics Corporation’s Adva-27a which is covered by international patent applications filed on April 27, 2007 (PCT/FR2007/000697).  These patent applications, which are now issued in Europe and the United States (US 8,236,935) and are still pending elsewhere around the world, were originally owned by Institut National des Sciences Appliquées de Rouen (France) and have recently been purchased by Advanomics Corporation.  On January 14, 2013, Advanomics Corporation filed a new patent application covering Adva-27a manufacturing processes as well as new Adva-27a derivatives and compositions.

Our Lead Anti-Cancer Compound, Adva-27a, in 3D

 
Subsequent Events

On July 25, 2014, we formed Sunshine Biopharma Canada Inc., a Canadian wholly owned subsidiary for the purposes of conducting pharmaceutical business in Canada and elsewhere around the globe.  While no assurances can be provided, we anticipate that Sunshine Biopharma Canada will soon rent office and warehouse space, secure a pharmaceutical establishment and export license from Health Canada and proceed to signing manufacturing, marketing, sales and distribution contracts for various generic pharmaceuticals and biomedical products.  This new effort broadens our business scope and provides us with the opportunity to generate revenues in the near to mid-term.  We anticipate revenues to be generated through the export of generic pharmaceuticals overseas.  In addition to revenue generation, we anticipate that as a result of these activities, Sunshine Biopharma Canada will then be well positioned for the marketing and distribution of Adva-27a, our flagship oncology drug candidate currently being developed for the treatment of pancreatic cancer and multidrug resistant breast cancer, provided that Adva-27A is approved for such marketing and distribution, of which there can be no assurance.

In addition, on August 7, 2014, we elected to issue our initial put notice to Dutchess, wherein we requested that Dutchess purchase 930,233 shares of our Common Stock for $100,000.  Upon receipt of these funds we intend to utilize the proceeds from the sale of these shares to repay debt.  We anticipate that the proceeds from the next put notice shall be utilized to commence IND studies on our Adva-27a drug.

Government Regulations

Our existing and proposed business operations are subject to extensive and frequently changing federal, state, provincial and local laws and regulations.  We will be subject to significant regulations in the U.S. in order to obtain the approval of the FDA to offer our product on the market.  The approximate procedure for obtaining FDA approval involves an initial filing of an IND application following which the FDA would give the go ahead with Phase I clinical (human) trials.  As a result of the Dutchess Agreement described below, we now anticipate that this process will commence in mid to late 2015 and we estimate that this procedure will take 18 months to complete.  Following completion of Phase I, the results are filed with the FDA and a request is made to proceed to Phase II.  Similarly, following completion of Phase II the data are filed with the FDA and a request is made to proceed to Phase III.  Following completion of Phase III, a request is made for marketing approval.  Depending on various issues and considerations, the FDA could provide limited marketing approval on a humanitarian basis if the drug treats terminally ill patients with limited treatment options available.  As of the date of this Report we have not made any filings with the FDA or other regulatory bodies in other jurisdictions.  We have however had extensive discussions with clinicians at the McGill University’s Jewish General Hospital in Montreal where we plan to undertake our Phase I study for multidrug resistant breast cancer they believe that Health Canada is likely to grant us a so-called fast-track process on the basis of the terminal nature of the cancer which we will be treating.  There are no assurances this will occur.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2014, we had cash or cash equivalents of $38,411.

Net cash used in operating activities was $272,829 during the six month period ended June 30, 2014, compared to $439,006 for the six month period ended June 30, 2013. The decrease is primarily due to a beneficial conversion charge of $548,951 incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2013 which we did not incur during the similar period in 2014.  However, stock issued for services, stock issued for payment of interest on notes payable, and stock issued for payment of expenses all increased significantly during the 6 months ended June 30, 2014. We anticipate that overhead costs in current operations will increase in the future once our research and development activities discussed above increase.

Cash flows from financing activities were $280,000 for the six month periods ended June 30, 2014, compared to $463,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2013.  Cash flows used by investing activities were $0 for the six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

In June 2012, we conducted a private placement of our Common Stock for the purposes of supporting our working capital whereby we sold 250,000 shares at a price of $0.20 per share and received proceeds of approximately $50,000 therefrom.

Between July and October 2012, we conducted a private placement of our Common Stock to fund our drug development program whereby we sold 1,410,000 shares of our Common Stock at a price of $0.25 per share and received proceeds of approximately $352,500 therefrom.

In December 2012, we commenced a private offering of Convertible Notes. We issued nine Convertible Notes to six accredited investors (as that term is defined under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) in the aggregate amount of $513,000. These notes accrued interest at the rate of 6% per annum and were convertible at our option into shares of our Common Stock at $0.20 per share on or before June 30, 2013.  We elected to convert these notes with interest accrued thereon and issued an aggregate of 2,590,426 shares of Common Stock to these investors.  The Convertible Notes were considered to have a beneficial conversion feature and under ASC 470-20-25-10 the beneficial conversion feature was calculated to be $548,951 in total based on the issuance date and the share price on that date. This amount was booked to interest expense and Additional Paid in Capital for the period as all of the Convertible Notes were converted by June 30, 2013.

During the six months ended June 30, 2014 we conducted a private placement of our Common Stock for the purposes of supporting our working capital whereby we sold 266,667 shares at a price of $0.20 per share and received proceeds of approximately $53,333 therefrom.

On March 27, 2014, we issued a Convertible Note to one accredited investor (as that term is defined under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) in the aggregate amount of $100,000 plus 500,000 Common shares (paid) and $20,000 (unpaid) for origination fee.  This Convertible Note accrues interest at the rate of 10% per annum and is convertible at the option of the Holder into shares of our Common Stock at $0.20 per share on or before September 27, 2014.  Since the Note was issued at a premium no value is apportioned to the conversion feature when recording the issue per ASC 470-20-05. The debt and its interest are reported as if it were a nonconvertible debt. Upon conversion the issued stock may be valued at either the book value or the market value of the note.

On May 7, 2014, we issued a Convertible Note to one accredited investor (as that term is defined under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) in the aggregate amount of $500,000.  The note proceeds are payable on an as needed basis. During the quarter ended June 30, 2014, $100,000 was disbursed. This Convertible Note accrues interest at the rate of 10% per annum beginning in three months from the date issued and is convertible at the option of the Holder into shares of the Company’s Common Stock at $0.20 per share on or before September 27, 2014.  Since the Note was issued at a premium no value is apportioned to the conversion feature when recording the issue per ASC 470-20-05. The debt and its interest are reported as if it were a nonconvertible debt. Upon conversion, the stock may be valued at either the book value or the market value of the bonds.

We are not generating revenue from our operations, and our ability to implement our business plan for the future will depend on the future availability of financing. Such financing will be required to enable us to further develop our drug research and development capabilities and continue operations. We estimate that we will require approximately $5 million in debt and/or equity capital to fully implement our business plan in the future and there are no assurances that we will be able to raise this capital.  During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we did, on April 23, 2014, enter into an Investment Agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) with Dutchess Opportunity Fund, II, LP (“Dutchess”), for the sale of up to $2.5 million of shares of our Common stock over a three-year commitment period.  Under the terms of the Investment Agreement, we may, from time to time and in our sole discretion, issue shares of our Common stock to Dutchess at a price equal to ninety percent (90%) of the lowest daily volume weighted average price during a Trading Day of our Common Stock during the five (5) consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding the Put Notice Date, up to $2.5 million.  In connection with the Investment Agreement, we also issued to Dutchess an engagement fee in the form of 400,000 “restricted” shares of our Common Stock.

 
16

 
 
The amount of each tranche under the Investment Agreement is limited to maximum $100,000 and we may only issue a Put Notice (as defined under the Investment Agreement) ten (10) Trading Days after each prior Put Notice Date.  We are not obligated to utilize any of the $2.5 million available under the Investment Agreement and there are no minimum commitments or minimum use penalties.

The Investment Agreement does not impose any restrictions on our operating activities. During the term of the Investment Agreement, Dutchess is prohibited from engaging in any short selling or hedging transactions, either directly or indirectly, related to our Common Stock.

As a material term of the Dutchess Agreement, we were required to register the 400,000 shares of our Common Stock already issued to Dutchess, as well as 13,000,000 additional shares of our Common Stock reserved for issuance upon our drawing down funds pursuant to the Investment Agreement.  We filed the registration statement with the SEC on May 22, 2014 and it became effective July 23, 2014.  After completing various other procedural requirements we are now in a position to commence the process of drawing down on the $2.5 million financing available under the Investment Agreement to fund our operations and our Adva-27a development program.  Despite this agreement there can be no assurances that we will have sufficient capital to complete the implementation of our business plan, as we currently estimate we will need up to $5 million to do so.  We expect to raise the additional capital necessary to fully implement our business plan either by the sale of our securities, or through generating revenues as described in Plan of Operation above.  There are no assurances that either scenario will be successfully implemented.  As of the date of this report we have not reached any agreement with any party that has agreed to provide us with the additional capital we think may be necessary to fully implement our business plan, or whether we will generate sufficient revenues to allow us to do so. Our inability to obtain additional sufficient funds from external sources if and when needed may have a material adverse effect on our plan of operation, results of operations and financial condition.
 
Our cost to continue operations as they are now conducted is nominal, but these are expected to increase in the near future once we commence Phase I clinical trials. We do not have sufficient funds to cover the anticipated increase in these expenses. We need to raise additional funds in order to continue our existing operations, to initiate research and development activities, and to finance our plans to expand our operations for the next year. If we are successful in raising additional funds, our research and development efforts will continue and expand.
 
Inflation

Although our operations are influenced by general economic conditions, we do not believe that inflation had a material effect on our results of operations during the six month period ended June 30, 2014.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The following represents a summary of our critical accounting policies, defined as those policies that we believe are the most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and that require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures - Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report.

These controls are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2014, at the reasonable assurance level. We believe that our consolidated financial statements presented in this Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for all periods presented herein.

Inherent Limitations - Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdown can occur because of simple error or mistake. In particular, many of our current processes rely upon manual reviews and processes to ensure that neither human error nor system weakness has resulted in erroneous reporting of financial data.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting - There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the six month period ended June 30, 2014, which were identified in conjunction with management’s evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 
 
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
 
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are a defendant to one outstanding matter of litigation but believe we have reached a settlement, which requires that we arrange to deliver 650,000 shares of our common stock..  We are not party to any other material legal proceedings, nor have any such actions been threatened against us.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

We are a smaller reporting company and are not required to provide the information under this item pursuant to Regulation S-K.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

During the six months ended June 30, 2014 we conducted a private placement of our Common Stock for the purposes of supporting our working capital whereby we sold 266,667 shares at a price of $0.20 per share and received proceeds of approximately $53,333 therefrom.

On March 27, 2014, we issued a Convertible Note to one accredited investor (as that term is defined under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) in the aggregate amount of $100,000 plus 500,000 Common shares (paid) and $20,000 (unpaid) for origination fee.  This Convertible Note accrues interest at the rate of 10% per annum and is convertible at the option of the Holder into shares of our Common Stock at $0.20 per share on or before September 27, 2014.  Since the Note was issued at a premium no value is apportioned to the conversion feature when recording the issue per ASC 470-20-05. The debt and its interest are reported as if it were a nonconvertible debt. Upon conversion the issued stock may be valued at either the book value or the market value of the note.
