PROSPECTUS

 

SAFE LANE SYSTEMS, INC.

 

22,768,273 shares of common stock underlying conversion rights of Class “B” Non-Voting for distribution to Distributees under the Plan of Liquidation, upon conversion of Class “B” Preferred Convertible Non-Voting Stock

and 22,768,273 shares of common stock for resale by Distributees of the Plan of Liquidation

 

We are registering:

(a)22,768,273 common shares to be distributed to Distributees under the Plan of Liquidation, upon conversion of Class “B” Preferred Convertible Non-Voting Stock.

(b)22,768,273 shares of common stock for resale by Distributees of the Plan of Liquidation

 

We will not receive any proceeds from sales of shares by selling shareholders. As used herein "Plan of Liquidation" refers only to liquidation of Class "B" Preferred Convertible Stock to the shareholders of Superior Traffic Controls, Inc. through Registration and Distribution.  

 

Pursuant to the Master I.P. Agreement, we agreed to issue up to 22,768,273 shares of our Class “B” Preferred Convertible Non-Voting Stock on a one-for-one basis convertible up to 22,768,273 shares of our common stock to a Trustee for Superior Traffic Control, Inc.’s (“STC”) shareholders with the understanding and agreement that we would file an S-1 Registration Statement for a) the distribution of the common shares, pro-rata, to the shareholders of STC, and b) for resale of such converted common shares issued to STC shareholders in public market or private transactions.  The terms of our Class “B” Preferred Convertible Non-Voting Stock and the terms of the Trust provide that there can be no conversion of our Class “B” Preferred Convertible Non-Voting Stock to common stock unless and until a Registration Statement on Form S-1 under the Securities Act of 1933 has been made effective.

 

Our selling shareholders plan to sell common shares at $0.01, until such time as a market develops for any of the securities and thereafter at such prices as the market may dictate from time to time.  There is no market price for the stock and our pricing is arbitrary with no relation to market value, liquidation value, earnings or dividends.  The price was arbitrarily set at $0.01 per share, based on a speculative concept unsupported by any other comparables.   We have set the initial fixed price as follows:

 

Title

Price Per Share

Common Stock

$0.01

 

At any time after a market develops, our security holders may sell their securities in a market, at market prices or at any price in privately negotiated transactions.

 

This offering involves a high degree of risk; see "RISK FACTORS" beginning on page 6 to read about factors you should consider before buying shares of the common stock.

 

These securities have not been approved or disapproved by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or any state or provincial securities commission, nor has the SEC or any state or provincial securities commission passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of this prospectus.  Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

 

We intend to obtain a quotation for our stock in the future, but cannot make any assurances that we will be approved for such quotation by FINRA.  An application has not yet been filed, nor is there any selected broker/dealer to file for quotation on our behalf as of yet.  Our common stock is presently not quoted on any national securities exchange or the NASDAQ Stock Market or any other venue.

 

This offering will be on a delayed and continuous basis only after the distribution upon conversion of Class “B” Preferred Convertible Non-Voting stock to common and for sales of selling shareholders (distributes) shares. The selling shareholders are not paying any of the offering expenses and we will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the shares by the selling shareholders.  (See “Description of Securities – Shares”).  

 

 

 


 

The information in this prospectus is not complete and may be changed.  We may not sell these securities until the date that the registration statement relating to these securities, which has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, becomes effective.  This prospectus is not an offer to sell these securities and it is not soliciting an offer to buy these securities in any state where the offer or sale is not permitted.

 

The date of this Prospectus is March 18, 2015.

ITEM 3.  PROSPECTUS SUMMARY INFORMATION, RISK FACTORS AND RATIO OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES

 

Our Company

 

Safe Lane Systems, Inc. (“Safe Lane Systems”, “Safe Lane Systems,” “We,” “Us,” “Our,” or “Company” hereafter), was incorporated in the State of Colorado on September 10, 2013.  We were formed to engage in the sale of traffic safety equipment. We may also engage in any other business permitted by law, as designated by the Board of Directors of our Company.

 

We have licensed and sub-licensed I.P. for a spring traffic cone dispenser designed to protect highway workers, first responders to vehicle collisions and highway incidents, law enforcement personnel, towing operators, private and public utility workers, as well as pedestrians and motorists.  Our flagship product, The Kone General Automatic Safety Cone Deployment System, is the world’s first and only portable safety cone dispensing system. Safe D-Ploy Spring Cones are patented MUTCD (Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices) compliant highway safety cones. We must commence manufacture and sales by January 1, 2016.  We cannot give any assurance that we will be able to comply with this requirement of the license.

 

We have begun initial minimal operations and are currently without revenue. We have one contract employee at the present time, our CEO.  During the year ended December 31, 2013, the executive officers contributed their services and had not begun to be compensated.  Upon formation, the founder, our CEO and Chairman, Paul D. Dickman, purchased 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock as a price of $0.0005, per share for a total price of $1,000 and in addition he was granted 10,000,000 ($0.0001 par value) shares of Class “A” Super Majority Voting stock for organizational services.

 

We have engaged a marketing consultant to develop a marketing and sales plan for both the spring traffic cone and our automatic traffic cone dispenser.  The consultant’s final marketing plan should be received and approved by the end of the year.  We expect to incur an additional $15,000 in fees prior to the plan being finalized.  We currently have sufficient capital to cover the expected expense.

 

We have engaged and are currently under agreement with a globally recognized manufacturer’s representation firm, The Johander Company of Minneapolis, to help guide us into retail markets, build a manufacturer’s representative network, and drive retail sales of our Spring Cone and Safe-D-ploy product accessories. Johander was founded in 1987 by Bill Johander and remains a family business operated by his daughter Jennifer who joined the company after a successful career at Target Stores. We will pursue under a ‘pay for success’ commission structure the following existing Johander retail relationships including; Target and Target.com, Bluestem Brands (Fingerhut), Meijer, Menard’s, Home Depot, Lowe’s, Advance Auto, Sam’s Club and Gander Mountain, Walmart, Costco, Dick's Sporting Goods, Sports Authority, Academy Amazon, NAPA, Auto Zone, O'Reillys, Pep Boys, AC Delco, ULine, Grainger, Gempler's, Toys R Us, and Streicher's.  Through this relationship we expect to have a new manufacture in place by the end of the year at no additional costs until such time as manufacturing begins.

 

We plan to begin marketing our products in early 2015 based upon the recommendation of our marketing consultants.  We expect we will need to raise an additional $1, 250,000 in equity financing prior to implementing our full marketing and sales plan.  We owe a note payable of $210,000, which will need to be paid within the year 2015, as we have rewritten the note due March 31, 2015 to a due date of December 31, 2015.  If we are unable to pay this note or refinance, the Company may have to cease operations .

 

We are in the developmental stage of our business.  Since our incorporation September 2013, we have been engaged in securing both exclusive and non-exclusive license agreements for our key products, designing a marketing plan, and lining up suppliers and manufacturers for production.

 

During the 2015 fiscal year, we intend to focus our efforts on our product launch and marketing of the Kone General Automatic Safety Cone Deployment System. We must commence manufacture and sales by January 1, 2016 or our licenses will be in default.

 

 


Our Auditors have issued a going concern opinion and the reasons noted for issuing the opinion are our lack of revenues or business and very modest capital.

 

As of December 31, 2014, we had approximately $88,000 in cash on hand.  Our current monthly cash burn rate is approximately $12,500, and it is expected that burn rate will continue until significant additional capital is raised and our marketing plan is executed.  Once additional capital is raised to support our marketing efforts, we expect to increase our monthly general and administrative cash burn rate to approximately $25,000 per month until revenue is generated to offset this expense.  Based upon our current burn rate, we will use all current cash within six months’ time.  However, we will need to raise an additional approximately $1,250,000 to execute our plan of operations.

 

Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company

 

We qualify as an emerging growth company as that term is used in the JOBS Act.  An emerging growth company may take advantage of specified reduced reporting and other burdens that are otherwise applicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:

 

  •A requirement to have only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related MD&A;

 

  •Exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of the emerging growth company’s internal control over financial reporting under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002;

 

 •Reduced disclosure about the emerging growth company’s executive compensation arrangements; and

 

 •No non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements.

 

We have already taken advantage of these reduced reporting burdens in this prospectus, which are also available to us as a smaller reporting company as defined under Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

 

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)2(B) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) for complying with new or revised accounting standards. We have elected to use the extended transition period provided above and therefore our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.

 

We could remain an emerging growth company for up to five years, or until the earliest of (i) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our annual gross revenues exceed $1 billion, (ii) the date that we become a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, which would occur if the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter, or (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the preceding three year period.

 

For more details regarding this exemption, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Policies.”

 

Factors that make this offering highly speculative or risky are:

 

There is no market for any securities;

We have no revenues or sales;

We are start up company;

We have minimal experience in the traffic safety business as a company;

We are undercapitalized.

 

 


Our principal executive offices are located at 1624 Market Street, Suite #202, Denver, Colorado 80202 and our telephone number is (949) 825-6512. We maintain a website at www.safelanes.com, such website is not incorporated into or a part of this filing.

RISK FACTORS RELATED TO OUR COMPANY

 

Our securities, as offered hereby, are highly speculative and should be purchased only by persons who can afford to lose their entire investment in us.  Each prospective investor should carefully consider the following risk factors, as well as all other information set forth elsewhere in this prospectus, before purchasing any of the shares of our common stock.

 

We have a lack of revenue history and investors cannot view our past performance since we are a start-up company.  

 

We were formed on September 10, 2013 for the purpose of engaging in any lawful business and adopted a plan to engage in the traffic safety business.   We have had no revenues since inception.  We are not profitable and the business effort is considered to be in an early development stage.  We must be regarded as a new or development venture with all of the unforeseen costs, expenses, problems, risks and difficulties to which such ventures are subject. We should be considered highly speculative.

 

We have limited working capital and limited cash funds.

 

Our capital needs are projected to be $1,250,000 during the next 12 months of operations. Such funds are not committed, at this time in any amount.  Within the next six months additional financing requirements are projected to be $90,000.   We have a note payable agreement in place with our current lender that will provide this funding need.

 

We will not receive any proceeds from the resale of the shares registered hereby.  We are registering 22,768,273 shares of common stock on behalf of our shareholders for distribution and resale.

 

We have limited funds, and such funds may not be adequate to carry out the business plan.  We have limited funds (as of January 30, 2015, we had $67,357 in cash on hand), and such funds may not be adequate to carry out the business plan.  The ultimate success of our Company may depend upon our ability to raise additional capital. We have investigated the availability, source, or terms that might govern the acquisition of additional capital.  If additional capital is needed, there is no assurance that funds will be available from any source or, if available, that they can be obtained on terms acceptable to us.  If not available, our operations will be limited to those that can be financed with our modest capital.  

 

The ultimate success of our Company may depend upon our ability to raise additional capital.  Safe Lane Systems has investigated the availability, source, or terms that might govern the acquisition of additional capital.  If additional capital is needed, there is no assurance that funds will be available from any source or, if available, that they can be obtained on terms acceptable to Safe Lane Systems.  If not available, Safe Lane System’s operations will be limited to those that can be financed with its modest capital.

 

 


Our officers and directors may have conflicts of interest which may not be resolved favorably to us.

 

Certain conflicts of interest may exist between us and our officers and directors.  Our Officers and Directors have other business interests to which they devote their attention and may be expected to continue to do so although management time should be devoted to our business.  As a result, conflicts of interest may arise that can be resolved only through exercise of such judgment as is consistent with fiduciary duties to us.  See “Directors and Executive Officers” (page 40), and “Conflicts of Interest" (page 42).  Our officer is spending part-time in this business – up to 10 hours per week.

 

We may in the future issue more shares which could dilute current stockholders.  

 

We may issue further shares as consideration for the cash or assets or services out of our authorized but unissued common stock that would, upon issuance, represent more equity of our Company.  The result of such an issuance would be those new stockholders and management would control our Company, and persons unknown could replace our management at this time.  Such an occurrence could result in a greatly reduced percentage of ownership of our Company by our current shareholders and distributes and their purchasers in the event of resale, which could present significant risks to investors.

 

We will incur significant costs to be a public company to ensure compliance with U.S.. corporate governance and accounting requirements and we may not be able to absorb such costs.

 

We may incur significant costs associated with our public company reporting requirements, costs associated with newly applicable corporate governance requirements, including requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission. We expect these costs to be approximately $50,000-$75,000 per year. We expect all of these applicable rules and regulations to significantly increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time consuming and costly. We also expect that these applicable rules and regulations may make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified individuals to serve on our board of directors or as executive officers. We are currently evaluating and monitoring developments with respect to these newly applicable rules, and we cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs. In addition, we may not be able to absorb these costs of being a public company which will negatively affect our business operations.

 

We are an “emerging growth company,” and any decision on our part to comply only with certain reduced disclosure requirements applicable to “emerging growth companies” could make our common stock less attractive to investors.

 

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act, and, for as long as we continue to be an “emerging growth company,” we expect and fully intend to take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements applicable to other public companies but not to “emerging growth companies,” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We could be an “emerging growth company” for up to five years, or until the earliest of (i) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our annual gross revenues exceed $1 billion, (ii) the date that we become a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, which would occur if the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter, or (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the preceding three year period.

  

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)2(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies.  We have elected to opt in to the extended transition period for complying with the revised accounting standards. We have elected to rely on these exemptions and reduced disclosure requirements applicable to “emerging growth companies” and expect to continue to do so.

 


  

We may not be able to meet the filing and internal control reporting requirements imposed by the SEC which may result in a decline in the price of our common shares and an inability to obtain future financing.

 

As directed by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as amended by SEC Release No. 33-8934 on June 26, 2008, the SEC adopted rules requiring each public company to include a report of management on the company’s internal controls over financial reporting in its annual reports. In addition, the independent registered public accounting firm auditing a company’s financial statements may have to also attest to and report on management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the company’s internal controls over financial reporting. We may be required to include a report of management on its internal control over financial reporting. The internal control report must include a statement

 

Of management’s responsibility for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over its financial reporting;

 

Of management’s assessment of the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of year end; and

 

Of the framework used by management to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Furthermore, our independent registered public accounting firm may be required to file its attestation on whether it believes that we have maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting.

 

While we expect to expend significant resources in developing the necessary documentation and testing procedures required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, there is a risk that we may not be able to comply timely with all of the requirements imposed by this rule. In the event that we are unable to receive a positive attestation from our independent registered public accounting firm with respect to our internal controls, investors and others may lose confidence in the reliability of our financial statements and our stock price and ability to obtain equity or debt financing as needed could suffer.

 

In addition, in the event that our independent registered public accounting firm is unable to rely on our internal controls in connection with its audit of our financial statements, and in the further event that it is unable to devise alternative procedures in order to satisfy itself as to the material accuracy of our financial statements and related disclosures, it is possible that we would be unable to file our Annual Report on Form 10-K with the SEC, which could also adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock and our ability to secure additional financing as needed.

  

The JOBS Act allows us to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies.

 

Since, we have elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards under Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act, this election allows us to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those standards apply to private companies.  As a result of this election, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.

 

Our common shares will not initially be registered under the exchange act and as a result we will have limited reporting duties which could make our common stock less attractive to investors.

 

Our common shares are not registered under the Exchange Act. As a result, we will not be subject to the federal proxy rules and our directors, executive officers and 10% beneficial holders will not be subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act. In additional our reporting obligations under Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act may be suspended automatically if we have fewer than 300 shareholders of record on the first day of our fiscal year. Our common shares are not registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and we do not intend to register our common shares under the Exchange Act for the foreseeable future, provided that, we will register our common shares under the Exchange Act if we have, after the last day of our fiscal year, more than either (i) 2000 persons; or (ii) 500 shareholders of record who are not accredited investors, in accordance with Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act. As a

 


result, although, upon the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, we will be required to file annual, quarterly, and current reports pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as long as our common shares are not registered under the Exchange Act, we will not be subject to Section 14 of the Exchange Act, which, among other things, prohibits companies that have securities registered under the Exchange Act from soliciting proxies or consents from shareholders without furnishing to shareholders and filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission a proxy statement and form of proxy complying with the proxy rules. In addition, so long as our common shares are not registered under the Exchange Act, our directors and executive officers and beneficial holders of 10% or more of our outstanding common shares will not be subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires executive officers and directs, and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of equity securities to file with the SEC initial statements of beneficial ownership, reports of changes in ownership and annual reports concerning their ownership of common shares and other equity securities, on Forms 3, 4 and 5, respectively. Such information about our directors, executive officers, and beneficial holders will only be available through this (and any subsequent) registration statement, and periodic reports we file thereunder. Furthermore, so long as our common shares are not registered under the Exchange Act, our obligation to file reports under Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act will be automatically suspended if, on the first day of any fiscal year (other than a fiscal year in which a registration statement under the Securities Act has gone effective), we have fewer than 300 shareholders of record. This suspension is automatic and does not require any filing with the SEC. In such an event, we may cease providing periodic reports and current or periodic information, including operational and financial information, may not be available with respect to our results of operations.

 

Because our common stock is not registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, our reporting obligations under section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, may be suspended automatically if we have fewer than 300 shareholders of record on the first day of our fiscal year.

 

Our common stock is not registered under the Exchange Act, and we do not intend to register our common stock under the Exchange Act for the foreseeable future (provided that, we will register our common stock under the Exchange Act if we have, after the last day of our fiscal year, $10,000,000 in total assets and either more than 2,000 shareholders of record or 500 shareholders of record who are not accredited investors (as such term is defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission), in accordance with Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act).   As long as our common stock is not registered under the Exchange Act, our obligation to file reports under Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act will be automatically suspended if, on the first day of any fiscal year (other than a fiscal year in which a registration statement under the Securities Act has gone effective), we have fewer than 300 shareholders of record.  This suspension is automatic and does not require any filing with the SEC.  In such an event, we may cease providing periodic reports and current or periodic information, including operational and financial information, may not be available with respect to our results of operations.

  

Our articles of incorporation provide for indemnification of officers and directors at our expense and limit their liability which may result in a major cost to us and hurt the interests of our shareholders because corporate resources may be expended for the benefit of officers and/or directors.  

 

Our By-Laws include provisions that eliminate the personal liability of the directors of the Company for monetary damages to the fullest extent possible under the laws of the State of Colorado or other applicable law. These provisions eliminate the liability of directors to the Company and its stockholders for monetary damages arising out of any violation of a director of his fiduciary duty of due care. Under Colorado law, however, such provisions do not eliminate the personal liability of a director for (i) breach of the director’s duty of loyalty, (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct or knowing violation of law, (iii) payment of dividends or repurchases of stock other than from lawfully available funds, or (iv) any transaction from which the director derived an improper benefit. These provisions do not affect a director’s liabilities under the federal securities laws or the recovery of damages by third parties.

Reporting requirements under the Exchange Act and compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, including establishing and maintaining acceptable internal controls over financial reporting, are costly and may increase substantially.

 

The rules and regulations of the SEC require a public company to prepare and file periodic reports under the Exchange Act, which will require that the Company engage legal, accounting, auditing and other professional services. The engagement of such services is costly. Additionally, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”) requires, among other things, that we design, implement and maintain adequate internal controls and procedures over financial reporting. The costs of complying with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the limited technically qualified personnel we have may make it difficult for us to design, implement and maintain adequate internal controls over financial reporting. In the event that we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls or discover material weaknesses in our internal controls, we may not be able to produce reliable financial reports or report fraud, which may harm our overall financial condition and result in loss of investor confidence and a decline in our share price.

  

As a public company, we will be subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Dodd-Frank Act of 2010 and other applicable securities rules and regulations. Despite recent reforms made possible by the JOBS Act, compliance with these rules and regulations will nonetheless increase our legal and financial compliance costs, make some activities more difficult, time-consuming or costly and increase demand on our systems and resources, particularly after we are no longer an “emerging growth company.” The Exchange Act requires, among other things, that we file annual, quarterly, and current reports with respect to our business and operating results.

 

We are not diversified and we will be dependent on only one business.

 

Because of the limited financial resources that we have, it is unlikely that we will be able to diversify our operations.  Our probable inability to diversify our activities into more than one area will subject us to economic fluctuations within the traffic safety industry and therefore increase the risks associated with our operations due to lack of diversification.

 

We will depend upon management but we will have limited participation of management (which could be detrimental to the business.).

 

We currently have two individuals who are serving as our officers and directors for up to 10 hours per week each on a part-time basis.  Our directors are also acting as our officers. Our directors and officers are, or may become, in their individual capacities, officers, directors, controlling shareholder and/or partners of other entities engaged in a variety of businesses. We will be heavily dependent upon our officers skills, talents, and abilities, as well as several consultants to us, to implement our  business plan, and may, from time to time, find that the inability of the officers, directors and consultants to devote their full-time attention to our business results in a delay in progress toward implementing our business plan.  Once we achieve more funding – other consultants may be employed on a part-time basis under a contract to be determined.  See "Management."  Because investors will not be able to manage our business, they should critically assess all of the information concerning our officers and directors.

 

We may be unable to obtain and retain appropriate patent and trademark protection of our products and services.

 

We may seek to protect our intellectual property rights (if any) through patents, trademarks, trade names, trade secrets and a variety of other measures. However, these measures may be inadequate to protect our intellectual property (to the extent we have any) or other proprietary information.

 

Trade secrets may become known by third parties. Our trade secrets or proprietary technology may become known or be independently developed by competitors.

Rights to patents applications and trade secrets may be invalidated. Disputes may arise with third parties over the ownership of our intellectual property rights. Patents may be invalidated, circumvented or challenged, and the rights granted under the patent application that provide us with a competitive advantage may be nullified.

Problems with future patent applications. Pending or future patent applications may not be approved, or the scope of the granted patent may be less than the coverage sought.

11 

 


Infringement claims by third parties. Infringement, invalidity, right to use or ownership claims by third parties or claims for indemnification may be asserted by third parties in the future. If any claims or actions are asserted against us, we can attempt to obtain a license for that third party's intellectual property rights. However, the third party may not provide a license under reasonable terms, or may not provide us with a license at all.

Litigation may be required to protect any intellectual property rights.  Litigation may be necessary to protect our intellectual property rights and trade secrets, to determine the validity of and scope of the rights of third parties or to defend against claims of infringement or invalidity by third parties. Such litigation could be expensive, would divert resources and management's time from our sales and marketing efforts, and could have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

We can give no assurance of success or profitability to our stockholders.

 

There is no assurance that we will ever operate profitably.  There is no assurance that we will generate revenues or profits, or that the market price of our common stock will be increased thereby.

 

We have authorized and designated a Class “A” Preferred Super Majority Voting Stock, which having voting rights superior to our common stock.

 

Class “A” Preferred Super Majority Voting Stock (the “Class “A” Preferred Stock”) of which 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock have been authorized for the class and the shares have a deemed purchase price at $0.0001 per share.  At the date of filing this Registration Statement, all 10,000,000 Class “A” Preferred shares have been issued to our CEO, Paul D. Dickman. The holder of the Class “A” Preferred Stock has the ability to vote equivalent of 60% of our common stock in any vote of the common stockholders.  The Class “A” Preferred Stock would have a voting equivalent of 60%, if issued at this time.

 

We have authorized designated and issued a Class “B” Preferred Convertible Non-Voting Stock, which have no voting right until converted to common.

 

Class “B” Preferred Convertible Non-Voting Stock (the “Class ”B” Preferred Stock”) of which 30,000,000 shares of preferred stock have been authorized for the class and the shares have a deemed purchase price at $.0001 per share.  The Class “B” Preferred Stock are to have voting rights equivalent to their conversion rate, one (1) share of Class “B” Preferred Stock equals one (1) share of common stock.  At this time, 22,768,273 shares of the Class ”B” Preferred Stock have been issued.

 

Holders of the Class “B” Preferred Stock shall have no right to vote on any matter with holders of Common Stock and may not vote on any action, except an action which might change the rights and privileges of Class “B” Preferred Convertible Non-Voting Stock.

 

We have agreed to indemnification of officers and directors as is provided by Colorado Statutes.

 

Colorado Statutes provide for the indemnification of our directors, officers, employees, and agents, under certain circumstances, against attorney’s fees and other expenses incurred by them in any litigation to which they become a party arising from their association with or activities our behalf.  We will also bear the expenses of such litigation for any of our directors, officers, employees, or agents, upon such person’s promise to repay us therefore if it is ultimately determined that any such person shall not have been entitled to indemnification.  This indemnification policy could result in substantial expenditures by us that we will be unable to recoup.

 

Our directors’ liability to us and stockholders is limited

 

Colorado Statutes exclude personal liability of our directors and our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty except in certain specified circumstances.  Accordingly, we will have a much more limited right of action against our directors that otherwise would be the case.  This provision does not affect the liability of any director under federal or applicable state securities laws.

 

12 

 


Burden to investors.  

 

The financial risk of our activities will be borne primarily by existing shareholders, who will have contributed a significantly greater portion of our capital, than prior investors.

 

We will incur expenses in connection with SEC Filing Requirements and we may not be able to meet such costs, which could jeopardize our filing status with the SEC.  Those costs are estimated to be $50,000 to 75,000 per year additional.

 

We will incur legal and accounting expenses as a result of being a public company in order to meet the filing requirements under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (“34 Act”).  We will see an increase in legal and accounting expenses as a result of such requirements.  These costs can increase significantly if we are subject to comment from the SEC on its filings and/or is required to file supplemental filings for transactions and activities.  If we are not compliant in meeting the filing requirements of the SEC, we could lose its status as a 1934 Act Company, which could compromise its ability to raise funds and to ever achieve trading status on the OTCBB.

 

RISK FACTORS RELATING TO OUR BUSINESS

 

Any person or entity contemplating an investment in the securities offered hereby should be aware of the high risks involved and the hazards inherent therein. Specifically, the investor should consider, among others, the following risks:

 

We have a limited operating history.  If we fail to generate revenues and profits in the future, we may exhaust our capital resources and be forced to discontinue operations.

 

We were organized in 2013 and have a limited operating history.  The potential for us to generate profits depends on many factors, including the following:

 

our ability to secure adequate funding to facilitate the anticipated business plan and goals of the Company;

 

the size and timing of future client contracts, milestone achievement, service delivery and client acceptance;

 

success in developing, maintaining and enhancing strategic relationships with potential business partners;

 

actions by competitors towards the development and marketing of technologies, products and services that will compete directly with ours;

 

the costs of maintaining and expanding operations; and

 

our ability to attract and retain a qualified work force.

 

We cannot assure you that we will achieve any of the foregoing factors or realize profitability in the immediate future or at any time.

 

We expect operating results to fluctuate significantly in the future as a result of a variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control.  Factors that may adversely affect our operating results include, among others, demand of our products, the budgeting cycles of potential customers, lack of enforcement of or changes in governmental regulations or laws, the amount and timing of capital expenditures and other costs relating to the expansion of our operations, the introduction of new or enhanced products and services by us or our competitors, the timing and number of new hires, changes in our pricing policy or those of our competitors, the mix of products, increases in the cost of raw materials, technical difficulties, incurrence of costs relating to product design changes, general economic conditions, and market acceptance of our products.  As a strategic response to changes in the competitive environment, we may from time to time make certain pricing, service or marketing decisions or business combinations that could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.  Any seasonality is likely to cause quarterly fluctuations in our operating results, and there can be no assurance that such patterns will not have

13 

 


a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.  We may be unable to adjust spending in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected revenue shortfall.

 

Because of the products and services we offer and will offer, we may become subject to significant product liability exposure.

 

We will be dependent on third party suppliers for various components used in our current technology and products. Some of the components that we procure from third party suppliers include engineering, manufacturing, and sales, some of which are the sole source of the components. The cost, quality and availability of components are essential to the successful production and sale of our products. Any significant disruption in the source of these components could seriously impact production of our products and seriously harm our ability to market these products.

 

If we are unable to compete effectively with existing or new competitors, our resulting loss of competitive position could result in price reductions, fewer customer orders, reduced margins and loss of market share.

 

There are numerous competitors in the market places in which we will be marketing our products and we expect competition to increase in the future.  Many of our competitors may have significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources than we do.  These competitors may be able to respond more rapidly to new or emerging technologies or changes in customer requirements.  They may also be able to devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sale of their products.  Increased competition could result in price reductions, fewer customer orders, reduced margins and loss of market share.  Our failure to compete successfully against current or future competitors could seriously harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

We may not be able to manage future growth effectively, which could adversely affect our operations and financial performance.

 

The ability to manage and operate our business as we execute our development and growth strategy will require effective planning.  Significant rapid growth could strain management and internal resources and cause other problems that could adversely affect our financial performance.  We expect that our efforts to grow will place a significant strain on personnel, management systems, infrastructure and other resources.  Our ability to manage future growth effectively will also require us to successfully attract, train, motivate, retain and manage new employees and continue to update and improve our operational, financial and management controls and procedures.  Further, our ability to successfully offer our products and implement our business plan in a rapidly evolving market requires an effective planning and management process.  We plan to increase the scope of our operations domestically and our anticipated growth in future operations will continue to place, a significant strain on our management systems and resources.  If we do not manage our growth effectively, our operations could be adversely affected, resulting in slower growth and a failure to achieve or sustain profitability.

 

Changing Traffic Safety Standards could impact our product sales efforts.

 

The federal and state standards for traffic management are subject to ongoing changes and such changes may have an impact in the future on our products that cannot be determined.

 

We intend to rely on outside consultants, manufacturers and suppliers.

 

We intend to rely on the experience of outside consultants, manufacturers and suppliers.  In the event that one or more of these consultants, manufacturers, or suppliers terminates with us, or becomes unavailable, suitable replacements will need to be obtained and there is no assurance that such replacement could be obtained under conditions favorable to us.

 

14 

 


We may rely on strategic relationships to promote our product.

 

As a recently formed company, we intend to rely on strategic partnerships with outside companies and individuals to promote our products, thus making the future success of our business particularly contingent on the efforts of other parties.  Our products are designed to serve several markets.  An important part of our strategy is to promote acceptance of our products through product alliances with distributors who we feel could assist us with our promotion strategies.  Our dependence on outside distributors, however, raises potential risks with respect to the future success of our business.  Our success is dependent on the successful completion and commercial deployment of our products and on the future commitment of our distributors to our products and technology.

 

We will rely on suppliers, manufacturers and others.

 

We intend to rely on key vendors and suppliers to provide high quality products and services on a consistent basis.  We must use outside facilities and contract manufacturers to produce and prove products which include manufacturing facilities, warehouses, shippers, testing companies and other critical vendor partners.  Our future success will be contingent on the efforts and performance of these relationships.  We may have difficulty in locating or using alternative resources should supply problems arise with any one supplier.  An interruption or reduction in the source of supply of any of the component materials, or an unanticipated increase in vendor prices, could materially affect our operating results and damage customer relationships as well as our business.

 

We determined an arbitrary offering price.

 

The offering price of our shares under this Registration Statement was arbitrarily determined and does not necessarily bear any relationship to the assets, book value, earnings (loss) or our net worth and should not be considered to be an indication of the actual value of our Company.

 

Our common shareholders will not have any control of our Company.

 

The common stock registered hereby will represent a majority of our outstanding stock after its conversion but will remain limited in voting power due to the Class “A” Super Majority Voting Preferred stock held by management.  Accordingly, it could be difficult for the investors hereunder to effectuate control over our affairs and it should be assumed that our officers, directors and Class “A” Super Majority Voting Preferred shareholders will be able, by virtue of their voting control and stock holdings, to control our affairs and policies permanently as they hold 60% voting power at all times while Class "A" is issued and outstanding.  As a result, these stockholders will possess dominant influence over us, giving them the ability, among other things, to elect a majority of our Board of Directors and approve significant corporate transactions.  Such share ownership and control may also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in our control, impeding a merger, consolidation, takeover or other business combination involving us or discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us which could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.

 

Our shares will have limited transferability. Absence of Public Market: Non-Transferability and Non-Liquidity of Investment.

 

The shares distributed or resold pursuant to this Registration while registered for resale, may have extremely limited liquidity because our common shares are not approved for trading or quotation, and if we become approved brokerage houses have imposed severe restrictions upon penny stock trading.  Until that time, there will be no market for the shares registered hereunder.  An investor may be unable to liquidate an investment in the common stock and should be prepared to bear the economic risk of an investment in our stock for an indefinite period.  In addition an investor should be able to withstand the total loss of their or its investment.

 

Our Management has broad discretion in Budget usage.

 

We expect to use our limited capital for general corporate purposes, including working funds, capital expenditures, promotional and marketing expenditures and to fund anticipated operating losses.  In addition, we may use an unspecified portion of any future capital raised to acquire or invest in complementary products, IP and technologies if a favorable opportunity to make such an acquisition or investment arises.  In the ordinary course of business, we

15 

 


expect to evaluate potential acquisitions of products and technologies, which complement our business model.  In addition, from time to time, we will evaluate the usage of cash to determine whether the then existing uses and apportionment should be changed.  Accordingly, our management will have broad discretion in the application of our budgets.  The failure of our management to apply funds effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

Our success depends upon compliance with our Master I.P. License Agreement.

 

In the second quarter of 2014, we entered into a Master I.P. License Agreement relating to the safety cone dispenser and flexible marker device with Superior Traffic Controls, Inc., a California corporation who is the owner of certain intellectual property relating to each of the aforesaid devices.  Therefore, this agreement is exclusive as it relates to the safety cone dispensing device and non-exclusive as it relates to the flexible marker device.  In the event that we do not meet certain conditions in the Master I.P. License Agreement, we could lose our right to manufacture and distribute the cone dispenser.  Our success will depend significantly upon this license agreement and the proprietary technologies covered by said license agreement.

 

Our CEO has an incentive to generate revenues, but which may reduce our profitability.

 

Paul Dickman, our CEO is entitled to an 8% administrative fee on our total billings.  This fee is substantial enough that it might be the difference between profitability on revenues and unprofitability, which could negatively impact our profitability, and therefore or investors.

 

Forward looking statements and associate risks.

 

This Prospectus contains certain forward-looking statements, including among others: (i) the projected time for commencing operations; (ii) anticipated trends in our financial condition and results of operations; (iii) our business strategy for its plan of operations; and (iv) our ability to distinguish itself from its current and future competitors.  These forward-looking statements are based largely on our current expectations and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties.  Actual results could differ materially from these forward looking statements.  In addition to other risks described elsewhere in this “Risk Factors” discussion, important factors to consider in evaluating such forward-looking statements include (i) changes to external competitive market factors or in our internal budgeting process which might impact trends in our results of operations; (ii) anticipated working capital or other cash requirements; (iii) changes in our business strategy or an inability to execute our strategy due to unanticipated changes in the industry in which we will operate; and (iv) various competitive factors that may prevent us form competing successfully in the marketplace.  In light of these risks and uncertainties, many of which are described in greater detail elsewhere in this “Risk Factors” discussion, there can be no assurance that the events predicted in forward-looking statements contained in this Prospectus will in fact transpire.

 

Our continuation as a going concern is dependent on additional financing, as our operations are capital intensive and future capital expenditures are expected to be substantial.

 

Our future success is dependent on our ability to attract additional capital and ultimately, upon our ability to develop future profitable operations. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining such financing, or that it will attain positive cash flow from operations. Management believes that actions future actions to be taken to revise our operating and financial requirements may provide the opportunity for us to continue as a going concern.

 

RISK FACTORS RELATED TO OUR STOCK

 

No public market exists for our common stock at this time, and there is no assurance of a future market.

 

There is no public market for our common stock, and no assurance can be given that a market will develop or that a shareholder ever will be able to liquidate his investment without considerable delay, if at all.  If a market should develop, the price may be highly volatile.  Factors such as these discussed in the “Risk Factors” section may have a significant impact upon the market price of the shares offered hereby.  Due to the low price of our securities, many brokerage firms may not be willing to effect transactions in our securities.  Even if a purchaser finds a broker willing to effect a transaction in our shares, the combination of brokerage commissions, state transfer taxes, if any, and any

16 

 


other selling costs may exceed the selling price.  Further, many lending institutions will not permit the use of our shares as collateral for any loans.

 

Our stock, if ever listed, will in all likelihood be thinly traded and as a result you may be unable to sell at or near ask prices or at all if you need to liquidate your shares.

 

The shares of our common stock, if ever listed, may be thinly-traded.  We are a small company which is relatively unknown to stock analysts, stock brokers, institutional stockholders and others in the investment community that generate or influence sales volume, and that even if we came to the attention of such persons, they tend to be risk-averse and would be reluctant to follow an unproven, early stage company such as ours or purchase or recommend the purchase of any of our securities until such time as we became more seasoned and viable.  As a consequence, there may be periods of several days or more when trading activity in our securities is minimal or non-existent, as compared to a seasoned issuer which has a large and steady volume of trading activity that will generally support continuous sales without an adverse effect on Securities price.  We cannot give you any assurance that a broader or more active public trading market for our common Securities will develop or be sustained, or that any trading levels will be sustained.  Due to these conditions, we can give stockholders no assurance that they will be able to sell their shares at or near ask prices or at all if they need money or otherwise desire to liquidate their securities.

 

Our common stock may be volatile, which substantially increases the risk that you may not be able to sell your securities at or above the price that you may pay for the security.

 

If we are able to obtain an exchange listing of our common stock in the future, because of the possible price volatility, you may not be able to sell your shares of common stock when you desire to do so.  The inability to sell your securities in a rapidly declining market may substantially increase your risk of loss because of such illiquidity and because the price for our securities may suffer greater declines because of our price volatility.

 

The price of our common stock that will prevail in the market after this offering may be higher or lower than the price you may pay.  Certain factors, some of which are beyond our control, that may cause our share price to fluctuate significantly include, but are not limited to the following:

 

Variations in our quarterly operating results;

Loss of a key relationship or failure to complete significant transactions;

Additions or departures of key personnel; and

Fluctuations in stock market price and volume.

 

Additionally, in recent years the stock market in general, has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations.  In some cases, these fluctuations are unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of the underlying company.  These market and industry factors may materially and adversely affect our stock price, regardless of our operating performance.  In the past, class action litigation often has been brought against companies following periods of volatility in the market price of those companies common stock.  If we become involved in this type of litigation in the future, it could result in substantial costs and diversion of management attention and resources, which could have a further negative effect on your investment in our stock.

 

If we cannot pay the note payable for $ 250,000 it could subject us to a lawsuit and potential judgment

 

We owe a note for $250,000 which is due December 31, 2015 and if we do not pay the note, the holder could sue on the note and obtain a judgment and levy and execute on our assets, which could cause our business to fail.

 

The regulation of penny stocks by the SEC and FINRA will discourage the tradability of our securities.

 

We are a “penny stock” company, as our stock price is less than $5.00 per share.  Even if we were able to obtain an exchange listing for our stock, we cannot make an assurance that we will be able to maintain a stock price greater than $5.00 per share and if the share price was to fall to such prices, that we wouldn’t be subject to the “Penny Stocks” rules. None of our securities currently trade in any market and, if ever available for trading, will be subject to a Securities and Exchange Commission rule that imposes special sales practice requirements upon broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers or accredited stockholders.  For purposes of the rule,

17 

 


the phrase “accredited stockholders” means, in general terms, institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000, or individuals having a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or having an annual income that exceeds $200,000 (or that, when combined with a spouse’s income, exceeds $300,000).  For transactions covered by the rule, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction prior to the sale.  Effectively, this discourages broker-dealers from executing trades in penny stocks.  Very few brokers now affect such trades. Consequently, the rule will affect the ability of purchasers in this offering to sell their securities in any market that might develop therefore because it imposes additional regulatory burdens on penny stock transactions.

 

In addition, the Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted a number of rules to regulate “penny stocks".  Such rules include Rules 3a51-1, 15g-1, 15g-2, 15g-3, 15g-4, 15g-5, 15g-6, 15g-7, and 15g-9 under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  Because our securities constitute “penny stocks” within the meaning of the rules, the rules would apply to us and to our securities.  The rules will further affect the ability of owners of shares to sell our securities in any market that might develop for them because it imposes additional regulatory burdens on penny stock transactions.

 

Investors should be aware that, according to Securities and Exchange Commission, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse.  Such patterns include (i) control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer; (ii) manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases; (iii) “boiler room” practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons; (iv) excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differentials and markups by selling broker-dealers; and (v) the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired consequent investor losses.  Our management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock market.  Although we do not expect to be in a position to dictate the behavior of the market or of broker-dealers who participate in the market, management will strive within the confines of practical limitations to prevent the described patterns from being established with respect to our securities.

 

Investors in penny stocks have limited remedies in the event of violations of penny stock rules.  While the courts are always available to seek remedies for fraud against us, most, if not all, brokerages require their customers to sign mandatory arbitration agreements in conjunctions with opening trading accounts.  Such arbitration may be through an independent arbiter.  Stockholders may file a complaint with FINRA against the broker allegedly at fault, and FINRA may be the arbiter, under FINRA rules. Arbitration rules generally limit discovery and provide more expedient adjudication, but also provide limited remedies in damages usually only the actual economic loss in the account.  Stockholders should understand that if a fraud case is filed an against a company in the courts it may be vigorously defended and may take years and great legal expenses and costs to pursue, which may not be economically feasible for small stockholders.

 

Without arbitration agreements, specific legal remedies available to stockholders of penny stocks include the following:

 

 If a penny stock is sold to the investor in violation of the requirements listed above, or other federal or states securities laws, the investor may be able to cancel the purchase and receive a refund of the investment.

 

 If a penny stock is sold to the investor in a fraudulent manner, the investor may be able to sue the persons and firms that committed the fraud for damages.

 

The fact that we are a penny stock company will cause many brokers to refuse to handle transactions in the stocks, and will discourage trading activity and volume, or result in wide disparities between bid and ask prices.  These may cause stockholders significant illiquidity of the stock at a price at which they may wish to sell or in the opportunity to complete a sale.  Stockholders will have no effective legal remedies for these illiquidity issues.

We will pay no foreseeable dividends in the future.

 

We have not paid dividends on our common stock and do not ever anticipate paying such dividends in the foreseeable future.  Stockholders whose investment criteria are dependent on dividends should not invest in our common stock.

 

Rule 144 sales in the future may have a depressive effect on our stock price.

 

All of the outstanding shares of common stock are held by our present officers, and directors, stockholders as "restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. As restricted shares, these shares may be resold only pursuant to an effective registration statement or under the requirements of Rule 144 or other applicable exemptions from registration under the Act and as required under applicable state securities laws. Rule 144 provides in essence that a person who has held restricted securities for six months may, under certain conditions, sell every three months, in brokerage transactions, a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of 1.0% of a company's outstanding common stock or the average weekly trading volume during the four calendar weeks prior to the sale. There is no limit on the amount of restricted securities that may be sold by a non-affiliate after the owner has held the restricted securities for a period of six months. A sale under Rule 144 or under any other exemption from the Act, if available, or pursuant to subsequent registration of shares of common stock of present stockholders, may have a depressive effect upon the price of the common stock in any market that may develop.

 

Our stockholders may suffer future dilution due to issuances of shares for various considerations in the future.

 

There may be substantial dilution to our stockholders as a result of future decisions of the Board to issue shares without shareholder approval for cash, services, or acquisitions.

 

Any sales of our common stock, if in significant amounts, are likely to depress the market price of our securities.

 

Assuming all of the shares of common stock under this Registration Statement are sold by the selling security holders registered hereby, we would have 22,768,273 shares that are freely tradable, and in the market float.  

 

Unrestricted sales of 22,768,273 shares of stock by our selling stockholders could have a significant negative impact on our share price, and the market for our shares.

 

Any new potential investors in our stock may suffer a disproportionate risk and there may be immediate dilution of existing investor’s investments if the price is significantly lower than other investors basis.

 

Our present shareholders have acquired their securities at a cost significantly less than that which the investors purchasing after this Registration may pay for their stock in the market.  Therefore, any new potential investors will bear significant risk of loss.

 

We have determined an arbitrary offering price of our shares.

 

The price of our shares has been determined arbitrarily by us with no established criteria of value.  There is no direct relationship between these prices and our assets, book value, lack of earnings, shareholder’s equity, or any other recognized standard of value of our business.  The offering price should not be considered an indication of the actual value of the shares or securities.

 

ITEM 4.  USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares being registered on behalf of our selling shareholders.  

 

We may raise additional funds through a private placement of shares of our common stock. At this time there is no committed source for such funds and we cannot give any assurances of being able to raise such funds.  We can assure that we will require additional funds to carry out our business plan.  The availability and terms of any future financing will depend on market and other conditions.

19 

 


 

Our lack of funds could and would severely limit our operations, and might render us unable to carry out our business plan.

 

The monies we have been loaned by a third party is anticipated to pay some expenses of this registration statement, which is estimated to be $47,000.

 

ITEM 5.  DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

 

We have no established market for our common stock.

 

Our selling shareholders plan to sell shares at a fixed price per share, until such time as a market develops for any of the securities and thereafter at such prices as the market may dictate from time to time.  There is no market price for the stock and our pricing is arbitrary with no relation to market value, liquidation value, earnings or dividends.  

 

Title

Per Security

Common Stock

$0.01

 

We have arbitrarily determined our offering price for shares to be sold pursuant to this offering at $0.01. We are authorized to issue 450,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value voting common stock and 50,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock of which 10,000,000 shares are authorized as Class “A” Super Majority Voting Stock and 30,000,000 shares are authorized as Class “B” Preferred Convertible Non-Voting Stock. 10,000,000 Class “A” Super Majority Voting shares are issued and outstanding.  22,768,273 Class “B” Preferred Convertible Non-Voting shares are issued and outstanding. There were a total of 2,000,000 shares of common stock and 10,000,000 Class “A” Super Majority Voting shares issued during the period of September 10, 2013 (inception) through December 31, 2013. During the period of January 1, 2014 through December 31, 2014, a total of 22,768,273 Class “B” Preferred Convertible Non-Voting shares were authorized to be issued.  

 

The share price bears no relationship to any criteria of goodwill value, asset value, market price or any other measure of value and were arbitrarily determined in the judgment of our Board of Directors.

 

ITEM 6.  DILUTION

 

The following table sets forth with respect to existing shareholders, the number of our shares of common stock purchased the percentage ownership of such shares, the total consideration paid, the percentage of total consideration paid and the average price per share.  All percentages are computed based upon cumulative shares and consideration assuming sale of all shares in the line item as compared to maximum in each previous line.

“Net tangible book value” is the amount that results from subtracting the total liabilities and intangible assets from the total assets of an entity.  Dilution occurs because we determined the offering price based on factors other than those

used in computing book value of our stock.  Dilution exists because the book value of shares held by existing stockholders is lower than the offering price offered to new investors.

 

As at December 31, 2014, the net tangible book value of our stock was $(0.062) per share.  

 

 

ITEM 7.  DISTRIBUTION AND SELLING SECURITY HOLDERS

 

Pursuant to the Master I.P. Agreement, we agreed to issue up to 30,000,000 (resulting in issuing 22,768,273) shares of our Class “B” Preferred Convertible Non-Voting Stock on a convertible one-for-one basis to 22,768,273 shares of our common stock under a Plan of Liquidation to a Trustee for STC’s shareholders with the understanding and agreement that we would file an S-1 Registration Statement for a) the distribution of the common shares, pro-rata, to the shareholders of STC, and b) for resale of such converted common shares issued to STC shareholders in public market or private transactions.  The terms of our Class “B” Preferred Convertible Non-Voting Stock and the terms of the Plan of Liquidation provide that there can be no conversion of our Class “B” Preferred Convertible Non-Voting Stock to common unless and until a Registration Statement on Form S-1 under the Securities Act of 1933 has been made effective.

 

The selling shareholders will obtain their shares of our common stock from Trustee under Plan of Liquidation effective upon Registration hereunder as set forth in “B” below.

COMPANY BUSINESS OVERVIEW

 

Our Company, Safe Lane Systems, Inc., was formed to develop the marketing and contract the manufacturing of certain products resulting from development of IP in design and manufacturing by Superior Traffic Controls, Inc.  We licensed certain IP under a Master License and a Sub License to capitalize the marketing and contract manufacturing of certain products.

 

Safe Lane System's line-up features proprietary products, all of which have been made available via exclusive and non-exclusive licensing agreements with Superior Traffic Controls, Inc.

 

Safe Lane System's product offerings include both a commercial and consumer safety cone product line, as well as an automatic safety cone dispenser, The Kone General. These products represent the culmination of a research project begun several years ago to address the critical need for safer roads, highways, and city streets.

 

The Kone General Automatic Safety Cone Dispenser

 

The Kone General is our flagship product and is a patent pending device that can be installed on a wide range of vehicles ranging, but not limited to, fire engines, police cars, tow trucks, telecom vans, construction vehicles, federal, state, and local transit vehicles, that automatically deploys traffic cones by the operator of the attending vehicle.  Management believes, the Kone General Dispensing System is the world’s first, and only portable, plug-and-play safety cone dispenser. As the attending vehicle approaches an emergency, construction area, job site, or auto accident, patented spring loaded safety cones are automatically deployed at the touch of a button.

 

We licensed the IP for this “incident management” automatic cone dispenser (The Kone General), which we intend to launch into markets. The Kone General currently holds up to five, 18” or 28” MUTCD compliant cones. Design is currently in progress to develop a magazine capable of increasing its capacity by an additional 5-10 cones. The Kone General provides for a safer, highly efficient, and more effective solution, addressing numerous issues in all areas of incident management and highway worker safety.

 

The Kone General is currently designed in two models. Our first model has been engineered specifically for the wired or wireless installation directly onto service vehicles. This has come as a result of extensive research that identified specific design parameters, exclusive to certain types of specialty vehicles such as Fire Trucks.

 

The dimensional footprint of the unit provides for tremendous flexibility relative to physical installation locations onto new vehicles, as well as for retro-install applications onto existing fleet vehicles. Couple this with simple electronics and seamless integration is easily accomplished.

The second model can be universally installed onto almost any vehicle via a universal mounting apparatus tied to existing vehicle trailer hitch configurations, and controlled via a wireless RF transmitter. Power to the unit is provided using a standard trailer “pig-tail,” eliminating the need for professional installation, providing Kone General end users with 100% “PLUG-AND-PLAY” functionality.

Availability

 

The Kone General product launch is intended for the first quarter of 2015. Both models are scheduled undergoing beta and field testing that is necessary prior to distribution and full product launch. Prior to our Kone General product launch, several reliability tests will continue to be performed, as well as environmental simulations that will help to identify any potential issues that changes in climate may have on the reliable and consistent operation of the unit. We intend to engage the field testing of the unit on fire engine and emergency services vehicle applications in first quarter 2015.

 

Safe Lane System's Traffic Safety Spring Cones and ("tote") Systems

 

The basic safety cone design has not changed in over 65 years, until now. It is only now with today’s technology in spring manufacturing and with new reflective materials that a retractable cone can be manufactured with the quality that can meet both governmental regulations and industry demands.

29 

 


The spring cone on which we have a non-exclusive distributorship (as a private label) is designed to better serve U.S. workers that regularly use cones in performing their daily work routines.  We intend to attempt to introduce the practicality of their use to millions of new customers in the consumer markets, who traditionally have not considered using traffic cones before because of storage and handling problems and relative inconvenience tied to cargo space limitations.  We do not have an exclusive right on this product and others may manufacture, market and private label this product.

 

For example, four Safe Lane System cones can be stored in the same space needed by a single standard PVC cone.

 

Picture 49 

 

Now, over 250 million plus vehicle owners can consider easily carrying full sized 28” safety cones for their protection while on the road, by utilizing our consumer cone systems which can store a minimum of two cones in a space of just 16”x14”x4”.

 

Our safety spring cone has the same form factor as a standard traffic cone, 28” in height with a standard 14” x 14” square base (See Fig. 7).

 

The uniqueness of our cone’s design lies in its ability for “perturbation,” or flexing from side to side, and up and down (See Fig. 3 and 5). These unique features come as a result of the licensed product design, which incorporate spring technology, a mesh material covering, state of the art reflective materials, and a heavier base.

 

Picture 50 

Picture 51

When combined, these factors result in the prevention of the cones being knocked over by passing vehicles (See Fig. 6), as well as from being blown over by gusting winds. In addition, by utilizing spring technology, the cones are neatly and efficiently stored in a compressed state, creating the desirable benefits of space maximization, and ease of transport.  We believe design puts our traffic safety cone in the very fortunate position to cross over into several other vertical target markets as well as in the consumer market segments.

 

Picture 53 

 

Recent changes in legislation require specific physical characteristics in traffic cone use in the United States. The legislation is called The Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, or MUTCD defines the standards used by road managers nationwide to install and maintain traffic control devices on all streets and highways. The MUTCD is published by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) under 23 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 655, Subpart F (http://mutcd.fhwa.dot.gov/ ).  States and localities have left this area to the Federal Highway Administration.

 

Description of MUTCD compliant spring cones bundled in the Kone General

 

With regard to our Kone General Systems, the use of MUTCD compliant spring cones come standard as included components of the device. This will ensure the Kone General’s compliance with all current legislation related to the use of traffic safety cones on Federal highways. In a compressed condition, the cone measures only 12” x 12” x 3 ¼” and weighs 5.5 pounds, compared to 8 up to 25 pounds for traditional cones. The cone’s reflective qualities are provided by applying Reflexite’s GP 800 reflective material, which is a patented product by Reflexite, one of the world leaders in highway safety reflective materials. The material generates a 500 Ra (candlepower) versus 250-300 candlepower for similar types of applications. The GP 800’s reflective sheeting material is ideal for construction zones. Our cone is environmentally friendly, and can handle high-speed impacts and heavy gusts of wind without displacing the cone. The 5-year total cost of ownership of our cone we believe is significantly less than that of a standard traffic cone, is more functional, takes up a fraction of the space of a standard cone, and is less than half the weight.  Our cones which we intend to sell are designed as MUTCD compliant.

 

Consumer Products

 

We intend to develop a line of consumer cones in various sizes and configurations for the retail sector. The 2-10 cone safety systems are ideally suited for personal transportation safety since they take up very little room in a personal vehicle. A cone system with wheels and a capacity of 25-40 cones is in development. These will be targeted at schools for their crossing areas, parking lots, play grounds and sport fields.

 

We have identified a unique niche for the marketing and sale of its safety cones and tote systems by crossing over into the marketing and promotional industries. Our management believes that significant profits can be generated by doubling its safety cones and systems as marketing, advertising, and promotional tools.  This can be easily accomplished by placing branded logos, custom embroidery, and/or silk-screening onto our safety cones. This integration of signage, logos, or promotional messages, instantly transforms the our safety cone into a powerful branding tool for companies, municipalities, hotels, restaurants, theme parks, outdoor arenas, stadiums, and any

31 

 


number of entities wishing to get their message across. To date, there hasn’t been any use of traffic cones as advertising mediums or for any other form of product placement or branding.

 

The parking industry would be a direct line into these market segments. Many restaurants, hotels, commercial buildings, and public parking areas source traffic control and parking responsibilities to third party lot management and valet parking companies.

 

Our Proposed Products:

 

(1) Consumer Cone Systems (bundles or "totes"): This product will be manufactured and marketed immediately at retail and discount construction supply, hardware and automotive outlets. Big box retailers, for example, Lowes, Ace Hardware, Home Depot and Sears in the U.S. total over 8,000 outlets. Smaller outlets easily exceed 60,000 in the U.S. As stated in the Market Analysis Summary, above, according to the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Statistics there are over 10 million employees in occupations that regularly use safety cones in their workday activities, all of which are targeted customers for this product.

 

Further, our Safe D-Ploy cone systems are designed to be marketed to both auto manufacturers, and motorists to be carried in all types of vehicles as part of the spare tire assembly.

 

(2) Kone General System: Our Kone General system has been designed to dispense five to seven safety cones. The dispenser systems offer an important business tool to private/ public providers of “incident management” services such police, fire/medical, tow and repair activities. These service providers need to set up temporary secure areas on streets, roads, sidewalks or highways to handle traffic control incidents. Additionally, public utilities, telephone and telecommunications companies like Verizon and AT&T need to establish similar safe areas for their road-site workers when providing essential services, such as telephone line repair. Collectively, the potential market for private/public vehicles needing a cone dispensing system exceeds 12 million. Our other potential markets for the Kone General are road painting, striping and asphalt contractors. Usually, these contractors use 18” cones, and therefore would require a redesign of the existing Kone General to provide the capability of handling smaller sized 18” cones. This product will be pursued next year. Presently, only 28” cones are available. 18” and 36” cones can be ordered, but delivery will take longer because there are no immediate plans to maintain an existing inventory of these cones.

 

(3) Stand-alone Perturbation Safety Cone: The safety cone will be initially sold as a component to the cone dispensing system (an extra 5 pack of safety spring cones will be offered and marketed as an “up sell” to purchasers of the Kone General for the purposes of having spare cones on hand), and other systems as an alternative and space saving vehicle safety solution.

 

However, before doing so for on-highway use several issues must be resolved. First, a magazine system capable of increasing the Kone General’s capacity to 10-20 cones needs to be perfected. Design work is in progress, and proof of concept has been resolved. Additional funding to complete prototypes is required. Second, regulatory analysis needs to be completed to identify state regulations and standards requiring additional state and local government testing and approval. Presently, the cone meets federal standards as a Category I directional device. The Company is able to self certify the cone’s compliance with federal regulations, but in many states we must still comply with additional requirements before the product can be marketed for federal highway usage. States requiring additional testing must be identified and the approval process researched. The Company needs to prioritize the states needing additional testing based upon market potential, user interest, the time needed, and difficulty of meeting compliance standards.

 

At this time we are not addressing to international markets.

 

We have aligned our intended manufacturing and production per-engineering criteria with international suppliers but focused today on the Domestic markets.  Specifically, the Safe D-Ploy Cone product and Kone General are being bid through international manufacturers who supply global companies including mass market retailers under private label.   Foreign laws and regulations do vary and we acknowledge this as a business reality and potential barrier to entry.   The market opportunity and cost associated with modifying our MUTD United States compliant cone to meet the foreign markets among many factors in consideration.  It’s a future plan based on expected demand after successful United Stated market penetration.  Sales, Marketing, Manufacturing and Distribution, as will as operational costs and

32 

 


ongoing finance, will be fully assessed before determining if each foreign market is worth the investment of time, capital and other resources.

 

Potential future commercial products utilizing the safety cone:

 

barricade

barrel

cone w/ sign

Kone General (large capacity)

Kone General magazine

cone collector system (large capacity)

 

Buyers/Users:

 

Law Enforcement

Fire/medical emergency response

Government Road Maintenance

Construction

Building/Ground Maintenance

Consumers

Utilities

OEM

School/ Athletics

 

Any one or all products may be used at some time by the above-mentioned buyers/users. For example, all buyers/users may need in varying quantities safety cones for their business, for recreation uses and for their business and/or personal vehicles.

 

Sales and Marketing Plan

 

Sales Planning is a critical element to any business.  Having a proper plan in place will accomplish several objectives but the most critical in our opinion are: drive profitable sales, avoid conflict between sales channels, and promote the activity with volume incentives.  We believe we have structured a revenue model for our sales channel (wholesale, value added resale, and retail (on-line and brick & mortar).  In the highway safety products industry, stocking distributors are key, because when a contractor or agency needs cone products, it is on an instant need basis and shipment needs to be immediate.  We have explored the need to develop a relationship with a leading warehouse distributor, a global leader who supplies many channels including Amazon.com to facilitate order delivery.  

 

Marketing, brand/product awareness, and clear value proposition are areas of great importance at this stage of the business.  We intend to implement a plan around the core externally facing elements: Brand identity (logos, color palette, design elements, tag lines, etc.), Digital (Website, Social media like Linkedin/Facebook Pages, Twitter, Google, You Tube Channels), and Print Literature (Corporate collateral, Product collateral, Channel Support literature, Direct Mail, etc.)

 

We are also working on license agreements of complimentary products that can be “add on” sales to existing customer and open new markets as well.

 

Facts and Statistics Related to Our Product Designs

 

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration confirmed Nov. 14 that U.S. highway deaths rose by 4 percent in 2012 from the previous year, as the agency released the 2012 Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS) data. The increase to 33,561 deaths in 2012 -- 1,082 more fatalities than in 2011 -- and most of them involved motorcyclists and pedestrians. Deaths for both of those categories increased for the third consecutive year in 2012.

33 

 


Key 2012 statistics include:

 

Fatalities among pedestrians increased 6.4 percent from 2011. The data showed the large majority of pedestrian deaths occurred in urban areas, at non-intersections, at night, and many involved alcohol.

Motorcyclist fatalities increased 7.1 percent year over year. NHTSA reported 10 times as many riders died not wearing a helmet in states without a universal helmet law than in states with those laws.

Large-truck occupant fatalities also rose for the third consecutive year, by 8.9 percent from 2011.

Deaths in crashes involving drunk drivers rose 4.6 percent to 10,322 in 2012, and most of those crashes involved drivers with a blood alcohol concentration of .15 or higher.

 

A preliminary total of 4,405 fatal work injuries were recorded in the United States in 2013, lower than the revised count of 4,628 fatal work injuries in 2012, according to results from the Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries (CFOI) conducted by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The rate of fatal work injury for U.S. workers in 2013 was 3.2 per 100,000 full-time equivalent (FTE) workers, compared to a final rate of 3.4 per 100,000 in 2012.

 

Since 2011, CFOI has identified whether fatally-injured workers were working as contractors at the time of the fatal incident. In 2013, 734 decedents were identified as contractors, above the 715 reported in 2012. Workers who were working as contractors at the time of their fatal injury accounted for 17 percent of all cases in 2013.

 

The number of fatal work injuries among firefighters was considerably higher in 2013, rising from 18 in 2012 to 53 in 2013. The large increase resulted from a few major incidents in which multiple fatalities were recorded, including the Yarnell Hill wildfires in Arizona which claimed the lives of 19 firefighters.

 

Fatal transportation incidents were lower by 10 percent in 2013, but still accounted for about 2 out of every 5 fatal work injuries in 2013. (See chart 1.) Of the 1,740 transportation-related fatal injuries in 2013, nearly 3 out of every 5 (991 cases) were roadway incidents involving motorized land vehicles.  Non-roadway incidents, such as a tractor overturn in a farm field, accounted for another 13 percent of the transportation-related fatal injuries. About 16 percent of fatal transportation incidents (284 cases) in 2013 involved pedestrians who were struck by vehicles. Forty-eight of these occurred in work zones.

Market Analysis Summary

 

In addition to the consumer cone described above, we have also specifically targeted a niche market consisting of “incident management” type vehicles, such as police, fire/medical and tow service vehicles as ideal users of its cone

34 

 


dispensing system. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, it is estimated that this market, together with repair and utility vehicles, exceeds 12 million in the US market.

 

Today, not only in the United States, but globally, road accidents and traffic related deaths are increasing. Our highways are becoming more dangerous despite government and industry efforts to make vehicles safer and stronger. The fact is, more vehicles, both large and small are taking up shrinking lane space on our highways. With increased demand for additional travel lanes, state and federal governments have encroached into road shoulder right of way area to solve the need for more traffic lanes. Government efforts to expand right of way areas are regularly the subject of litigation by special interest groups, which, in turn, drives road construction costs beyond capabilities and can result in years of delay and snarled roads. In many urban areas, roadways have been widened to expand across the entire breath of right of way leaving no safe shoulder area for disabled vehicles or road police action. Furthermore, any necessary repair or construction work on a roadway can create hazardous risks for workers, long traffic delays for motorists and increased opportunities for serious traffic accidents.

 

A large portion of the safety cones we hope to market pursuant to this business plan result from the anticipated acceptance and sale of our consumer cone line. According to the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Statistics, Occupational Data, in 2001 there were over 10 million individuals employed in industries where the use of traffic safety cones is a standard workday practice. Although safety cones are used for multiple purposes by many different types of business and industries, we believe there has never been a safety cone that has been more user friendly in terms of ease of handling, storage, performance, weight, and convenience.

 

We believe there has never been a similar product that is durable, flexible, rugged and functional. We hope that the our cone will generate new consumer base. For example, the very user-friendly cone could be a safety device for family personal vehicles, which rarely have carried cones in the past.

 

Safety cones on highways weigh between 8 to 25 pounds, and stand from 18” to 36” high. Placing these cones on the highway is almost always done by hand putting workers in danger of being struck by passing cars. According to the California Department of Transportation (CalTrans), 166 CalTrans employees have been killed in the line of duty with many deaths coming as a remit of errant vehicles entering highway work zones.

 

The majority of these accidents were the result of speeding and inattentive drivers. In 2002, there were over 1,000 work zone fatalities nationwide, as well as 8,374 work zone injuries. Further, according to the Federal Highway Administration, three worker fatalities occur nationally in all cone zones every five days. Many accidents occurred as a result of drivers running over a cone and losing control of their automobiles.

 

The public works employee is also at risk while placing these cones on the highway and during the retrieval process. Another added hazard is when safety cones are struck by a car and thrown into traffic, resulting in a public works employee or highway patrol officer having to cross traffic to retrieve them. Traffic cones are often stored on trucks making them difficult to load and unload. Many repetitive motion injuries have occurred as a result of the constant gripping and the awkward cone placement postures, especially to the shoulder area (flexion of 127-138 degrees).

 

An evaluation of U.S. Census Bureau Statistics for employment indicates over 10 million individuals are employed in professions, which regularly use safety cones in their daily work. Even a casual observer on any day will notice hundreds of safety cones riding in the trunk bed of pickup trucks and utility vehicles. Safety cones are universally used by all sorts of people for all sorts of purposes, despite the fact that they take up too much space, often stick together and are difficult and heavy to handle.

 

We believe traffic safety is a growing business. Our Safe D-ploy Spring Cone and Kone General System are unique in the marketplace, and are more than specifically designed for traffic safety, but adaptive enough so that we hope to qualify them as the industry standard in numerous alternate applications.

 

Our interviews with consumers indicated that there is a potential consumer market which is ready for our cone models. We believe there are many inherent advantages of using our safety cone instead of a standard PVC cone, such as; it will not blow over, weighs less, will not stick together, ships and handles easier, and if hit by a vehicle and projected into the roadway or work zone, will do less physical damage to people and personal property, as is currently the case with standard rubber safety cones.

35 

 


 

The construction industry in general and road construction, in particular, uses and replaces several million cones each year. Government regulations require the use of safety cones at work sites throughout the country. For these companies, our products may offer important advantages over standard PVC cones in the fact that our cones can be repaired with interchangeable parts at a fraction of the cost of a new cone.

 

New government regulations, both in the U.S. and internationally, require different colored cones to indicate various conditions or situations, such as hazardous materials and school areas. We intend to offer its cones in various colors to meet industry needs.

 

Sales Strategy

 

We intend to sell its Safe D-Ploy product line to customers generated by the Company both internally, as well as through reputable, established distributor networks. We intend to actively seek distributor networks, with existing clientele consistent with our target market of particular buyers/users.

 

We will also sell through independent manufacturer’s representatives on a case- by-case or market-by-market basis. Outside of our expansive internal plans to launch that have been previously mentioned, our main strategy is to communicate the unique and desired attributes of our cone, Kone General and consumer systems to a broad segment of the North American Market during the first year and to expand it internationally in our second and third year.

 

We believe we have a unique and innovative product line. The basic traffic safety cone has not been changed in over 60 years. As a result of technology and the reduction in material cost and labor, we intend to market our products to a growing market segment with a well-defined list of cost and functional benefits. We intend to communicate our high value proposition to the distribution network as well as end users through personal selling, targeted print advertising and improved communications capabilities via a sophisticated website.

 

We plan to be active in traffic control and other industry trade associations, and attend trade shows and exhibitions. Our trade show presence is a big part of our deployment strategy, beginning with the goal to feature our product line at the FDIC trade show which is held annually in Indianapolis, IN.

 

Furthermore, foreign markets need to be considered a high priority and distributors will be sought to market not only the Kone General but also all our products internationally. We will consider offering Distributors exclusive selling rights in their markets for various segments of the trade for one to three years. In return our Distributors will pay a license fee for said exclusivity. Our sales agreement will call for the Distributor to clearly identify its markets, and time frame as to when those markets will have product. If after an agreed upon time period those accounts are not being stocked with our product or products, then we will have the right to seek another Distributor to service the specific market(s).

 

Milestones Reached To Date

 

We have completed these milestones in our business plan progression:

 

Obtained the exclusive rights (via exclusive licensing agreements entered into between our Company and the I.P. holder) to both manufacture and distribute our primary product(s).

 

Secured non-exclusive licensing rights to related ancillary products that we intend to market in both the consumer and commercial market segments.

 

Secured USPTO trademark protection of the branded product name of our flagship product and related components, Safe D-ploy Spring ConeTM and The Kone GeneralTM

 

Developed our website (www.safelanesystems.com), marketing materials, brochures, sales aids, and product demonstration videos to be used to market the Company’s products.

 

Acquired all intellectual property related to technical and CAD, 2D, and 3D drawings in preparation for mass

manufacture of the Kone General Automatic Safety Cone Dispenser.

 

Acquired value engineering of the Kone General to significantly reduce the unit CGS.

 

Our Goals for the next year are as follows:

 

FUTURE MILESTONES

 

1st Quarter 2015

 

As of January 1, 2015, the Company had a cash balance of $88,000.  At a current monthly cash burn rate of $12,500, it is estimated that we will run out of cash before the end of March 2015.  We intend to utilize the remaining $90,000 made available through the financing arrangement with the original license holder, Superior Traffic Controls, Inc., to finalize the design of two Kone General prototypes, pay for travel and engagement, and pay for fees associated with the filing of this registration statement and finalizing the offering.  

 

Our milestones in this time period will be to receive additional financing through a private placement, have a design for two Kone General prototypes, refinance or pay off the note payable to Superior Traffic Controls, Inc., and enter into a manufacturing agreement to build the two prototypes.  We will need to raise additional debt or equity capital for funding of operations beyond the first quarter.  If no additional capital is obtained and the Company is not able to refinance or pay off the note to Superior Traffic Controls, Inc., it is highly probable that Safe Lane Systems, Inc. will cease operations.  

 

2nd Quarter 2015

 

Company's operations during this quarter almost entirely depend on successfully obtaining additional capital in the prior quarter.  Initial priorities will include identifying suppliers and the manufacturing company that will be responsible for making the first Kone General units.  We intend to complete production of two Kone General prototypes before the end of April 2015.  It will take approximately $40,000 to build these prototypes.  Once the two prototypes are built, we intend to spend approximately $50,000 on field testing and necessary procedures to obtain regulatory approval.  The Company will incur approximately $75,000 on general and administrative expenses during this quarter, which may be partially used to compensate for expenses associated with field testing and regulatory approval.  We will identify the most promising sales channels to utilize after the product receives regulatory approval.     

 

During this quarter, primary milestones will be to build and obtain regulatory approval for two Kone General prototypes.  

 

3rd Quarter 2015

 

Company's operations, during this time period, rely on successfully obtaining sufficient financing as well as completing production and obtaining regulatory approval for two Kone General prototypes.  The primary focus during this quarter will be on marketing and sales assuming that the manufacturing relationship has been proven and we achieved desired results with the product.  It will be important to achieve limited manufacturing with a firm delivery date.  The Company plans to allocate $80,000 to cover marketing and sales expenses.  The budget for sales and marketing will be partially utilized to hire at least two sales representatives, who will be responsible to establish a sales channel through a network of manufacturer's representatives and/or approach DOTs (Department of Transportation) in various states.

 

The milestones during this quarter will be to achieve market acceptance for the Kone General and to sell sample units.  If we are unable to achieve either or both of such milestones, we will have to extend into the following quarter.  If we have orders, we will try to partially finance manufacturing production with some type of accounts receivable financing or issue additional stock, which is not yet arranged and of which there can be no assurance.

 

37 

 


4th Quarter 2015

 

Assuming any success in the prior quarter with sales and deliveries, our emphasis in this quarter will again be to increase sales and manufacturing output.  We estimate using approximately $250,000 on marketing and general and administrative expenses.  We will increase sales staff in an expanded nationwide marketing efforts, with resulting expense increases.  However, we may have to allocate marketing funds to support manufacturing of ordered units.  The Company will have to secure either accounts receivable financing or obtain additional capital to support the sales cycle.

 

COMPETITION, MARKETS, AND REGULATION

 

Competition

 

Our dispenser is the world’s first portable safety cone dispenser design known to exist, and we have yet to identify any competitors as of the writing of this summary. Note: Other automatic safety cone dispensing systems currently exist. However, systems currently sold in the marketplace are designed for mass cone deployment (i.e. road striping applications), are not portable, require the purchase of heavy equipment, dedicated specialty vehicles, and are very expensive.  Safety cones are manufactured by many PVC and injection molding companies, and they are all price competitive for basic expandable units and constitute significant price/per unit competition for our cones.

 

Markets

 

Primary target market segments include highway departments, private/public utilities, fire/ems, law enforcement, trucking/transportation, telecomm, vehicle parking industry, construction, and the military. Calculation of market size is difficult to determine due to the uniqueness of the product, as well as being first to market over several vertical market segments.

 

Applicable Regulations in the Industry

 

The leading cause of highway construction worker injuries and fatalities is contact with construction vehicles, objects, and equipment. These injuries and deaths are preventable through a number of good practices. (Source: http://ops.fhwa.dot.gov/wz/workersafety/)

 

As our highway infrastructure ages, many transportation agencies are focusing on rebuilding and improving existing roadways. This means more roadwork is being performed on roadways that are open to traffic. At the same time, traffic continues to grow and create more congestion, particularly in urban areas. To avoid major queues during peak travel periods, urban areas are seeing more night work. The combination of more work done alongside increasingly heavier traffic and greater use of night work can result in increased safety considerations for highway workers. However, there are regulations and available resources on good practices that can help workers perform their jobs safely.

 

Work zones are a necessary part of maintaining and upgrading our highway system. The combination of more work zones and heavier traffic volumes means work zones are having a greater effect on roadway systems. The American public has cited work zones as second only to poor traffic flow in causing dissatisfaction with the roadway system.

 

Note: The following are significant statements on Regulations and Rules in the highway safety industry

 

The FHWA Work Zone Mobility and Safety Program is working to "make work zones work better" by providing transportation practitioners with high-quality products, tools, and information that can be of value in planning, designing, and implementing safer, more efficient, and less congested work zones. The Work Zone Mobility and Safety Web site serves as a central location for work zone-related resources and is updated with new information and resources on a frequent basis. These resources include:

 

Comprehensive information and guidance for implementing the Work Zone Safety and Mobility Rule (23 CFR 630 Subpart J).

38 

 


Peer-to-Peer Program that provides State and Local transportation agencies easy access to knowledgeable peers across a range of work zone issues, at no cost to these agencies.

Best Practices Guidebook, which includes recommended "state of the practice" approaches, procedures, and technologies for work zone mobility and safety management, collected from State and Local transportation agencies.

Work Zone Self Assessment, used by each FHWA Division Office and partner State on an annual basis to measure their current state-of-practice and identify future work zone quality improvement efforts.

Work zone training courses, to help practitioners plan, design, and implement safe and effective work zones.

Current news related to work zones, from both national and international sources.

Publications and studies on a variety of work zone topics, including work zone ITS, traffic analysis tools for work zones, contracting methods, construction strategies, public information and outreach for work zones, and others.

 

Worker Safety for Highway Construction Standard

 

ANSI/ASSE A10.47-2009: Work Zone Safety for Highway Construction became effective on February 24, 2010 and applies to workers engaged in construction, utility work, maintenance, or repair activities on any area of a highway. It covers practices including Flagger Safety, Runover/Backover Prevention, Equipment Operator Safety, Illumination, Personal Protective Equipment, and more.

 

Work Zone Traffic Management

 

Managing traffic during construction is necessary to minimize traffic delays, maintain motorist and worker safety, complete roadwork in a timely manner, and maintain access for businesses and residents. Effective work zone traffic management includes assessing work zone impacts and documenting strategies for mitigating the impacts in a transportation management plan (TMP). The Work Zone Safety and Mobility Rule requires TMPs for all Federal-aid highway projects.

 

(Source: http://ops.fhwa.dot.gov/wz/traffic_mgmt/index.htm)

 

Work Zone Safety and Mobility Rule

 

The Work Zone Safety and Mobility Rule (Rule) was published on September 9, 2004 in the Federal Register. All state and local governments that receive federal-aid funding were required to comply with the provisions of the rule no later than October 12, 2007. The Rule updated and broadened the former regulation at 23 CFR 630 Subpart J to address more of the current issues affecting work zone safety and mobility. The changes to the regulation encouraged the broader consideration of the safety and mobility impacts of work zones across project development and the implementation of strategies that help manage these impacts during project delivery.

Temporary Traffic Control

 

FHWA has published several documents and studies regarding temporary traffic control in highway maintenance.

 

Field Guide on Installation and Removal of Temporary Traffic Control (TTC) for Safe Maintenance and Work Zone Operations (PDF 845) - Provides field personnel with introductory guidance on proper setup and operation of TTC zones, which improves the safety of those working near traffic.

Work Zone Safety: Temporary Traffic Control for Maintenance Operations (PDF 283KB) - Provides seven fundamental principles for setting up TTC Zones to protect workers and incident responders and allow for the safe and efficient movement of road users.

Work Zone Positive Protection Toolbox (PDF 961KB) - Describes various types of positive protection devices and provides guidance on where and how each is typically used. These devices may be used to help protect road users from entering hazardous areas in work zones and to shield workers and pedestrians.

 

39 

 


(Source: http://ops.fhwa.dot.gov/wz/workersafety/index.htm)

 

The Temporary Traffic Control Devised Rule (Subpart K of 23 CFR 630) provides guidance for devices, and we believe our products meet the requirements of the Rule.

 

Selected Federal Regulations.

 

§ 630.1102 Purpose.

 

To decrease the likelihood of highway work zone fatalities and injuries to workers and road users by establishing minimum requirements and providing guidance for the use of positive protection devices between the work space and motorized traffic, installation and maintenance of temporary traffic control devices, and use of uniformed law enforcement officers during construction, utility, and maintenance operations, and by requiring contract pay items to ensure the availability of funds for these provisions. This subpart is applicable to all Federal-aid highway projects, and its application is encouraged on other highway projects as well.

 

§ 630.1110 Maintenance of temporary traffic control devices.

 

To provide for the continued effectiveness of temporary traffic control devices, each agency shall develop and implement quality guidelines to help maintain the quality and adequacy of the temporary traffic control devices for the duration of the project. Agencies may choose to adopt existing quality guidelines such as those developed by the American Traffic Safety Services Association (ATSSA) or other state highway agencies. A level of inspection necessary to provide ongoing compliance with the quality guidelines shall be provided.

The Kone General is currently protected by U.S. [(Application Pending) Pub. No.: US 2007/0183874 A1, Aug. 9, 2007].  It is sublicensed by us exclusively from Superior Traffic Controls, who holds the exclusive License from the Patent holder. Superior Traffic also owns certain technology, the “IP”, which include designs, drawings and specs necessary to more efficiently manufacture and assemble the dispenser and such “IP” is included in our exclusive Sublicense from Superior Traffic. We pay a royalty of $100 per unit sold, when payment is received, to the Sublicensor, Superior Traffic Controls.  We must offer the product in the first quarter of 2015 in commercial sales to keep the sublicense.

 

The Kone General [(Application Pending) Pub. No.: US 2007/0183874 A1, Aug. 9, 2007] and the Quick Deploy Spring Cone (US Patent No.:6,766,760 B2 July 27, 2004) are also protected by International Patents, respectively. The patent holder granted a non-exclusive license agreement with Superior Traffic Controls to manufacture and distribute the 28” MUTCD compliant spring cones. The products are currently trademarked under the name Quick Deploy Spring Cone. These products are intended to be marketed by Safe Lane Systems under a separate distributor agreement with the licensee (www.viz-con.com, and www.traffixdevices.com) at price points not to exceed their current wholesale catalogue prices.  This is not a License or a Sub-License, but rather a Distribution arrangement for the product. We do not have distribution agreements with viz-con.com or traffixdevices.com as it is dependent on product delivery dates and competitive pricing.  The spring cone is to be marketed with the Kone General.

 

Safe Lane Systems will pay a $200 royalty to the original license holder for each Kone General sold.  

 

c.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

We anticipate that we (including any future subsidiaries) will from time to time become subject to claims and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business.  It is not feasible to predict the outcome of any such proceedings and we cannot assure that their ultimate disposition will not have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows or results of operations.  As of this filing date, we are not a party to any pending legal proceedings, nor are we aware of any civil proceeding or government authority contemplating any legal proceeding.

 

d.  MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

 

Market Information

 

Currently there is no public trading market for our stock, and we have not applied to have the common stock quoted for trading in any venue.

 

We might try to obtain a listing for our stock on an exchange in the future, but cannot make any assurances that we will be approved for such listing, as the exchanges have certain listing requirements that we would have to meet.  Such listing requirements at a minimum include, but are not limited to:

 

-Stockholders’ equity of at least $4,000,000 and/or 2 years of operating history and/or pre-tax income of at least $750,000 in our last fiscal year or two of the last three fiscal years;

-Be able to meet certain distribution requirements; and

-Be able to meet certain market values of publicly held shares and aggregate market values of the shares.

Rules Governing Low-price Stocks That May Affect Our Shareholders' Ability to Resell Shares of Our Common Stock

 

We are a “penny stock” company, as our stock price is less than $5.00 per share.  If we are able to obtain an exchange listing for our stock, we cannot make an assurance that we will be able to maintain a stock price greater than $5.00 per share and if the share price was to fall to such prices, that we wouldn’t be subject to the Penny Stocks rules.

 

The penny stock rules require broker-dealers, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to make a special suitability determination for the purchaser to receive the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to sale, to deliver standardized risk disclosure documents 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 must also provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock.  In addition, the penny stock regulations require the broker-dealer to deliver, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prepared by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, unless the broker-dealer or the transaction is otherwise exempt.  A broker-dealer is also required to disclose commissions payable to the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities.  Finally, a broker-dealer is required to send monthly statements disclosing recent price information with respect to the penny stock held in a customer's account and information with respect to the limited market in penny stocks.

 

Holders  

 

As of January 26, 2015, we have 1 stockholder of record of our common stock.  

 

Dividends

 

As of the filing of this registration statement, we have not paid any dividends to stockholders. There are no restrictions which would limit our ability to pay dividends on common equity or that are likely to do so in the future. The Colorado Revised Statutes, however, do prohibit us from declaring dividends where, after giving effect to the distribution of the dividend; we would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or our total assets would be less than the sum of the total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the rights of stockholders who have preferential rights superior to those receiving the distribution.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Safe Lane Systems, Inc.:

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Safe Lane Systems, Inc. (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Safe Lane Systems, Inc., as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.

 

The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company’s significant operating losses raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

SAFE LANE SYSTEMS, INC.

 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

 

NOTE 1.  ORGANIZATION, OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

 

SAFE LANE SYSTEMS, INC. (the “Company”), was incorporated in the State of Colorado on September 10, 2013.  The Company was formed to engage in the sale of traffic safety equipment. The Company may also engage in any other business permitted by law, as designated by the Board of Directors of the Company.  During the second quarter of 2014 the Company secured a perpetual license to all of the intellectual property of Superior Traffic Control in exchange for the issuance of nonvoting convertible stock in the company.

 

Basis of Presentation - The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the instructions for annual financial statements.  In the opinion of the Company’s management, the information contained herein reflects all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s results of operations, financial position and cash flows.  All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature.  

 

Reclassifications - Certain amounts in the prior period’s financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current quarter’s presentation and to correct prior period errors.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash Flows - During the year ending December 31, 2014, the Company primarily utilized cash proceeds from an unsecured short term loan to fund its operations.

 

Cash flows used by operations for the period ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 were $122,505 and $0, respectively.

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as cash equivalents.  As of December 31, 2014, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $88,495 as compared to cash and cash equivalents of $1,000 as of December 31, 2013.

 

Impairment of Long-life Assets

 

In accordance with ASC Topic 360, the Company reviews its long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of the assets may not be fully recoverable. If the total of the expected undiscounted future net cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the difference between the fair value and carrying amount of the asset. No impairment was deemed necessary as of December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

 

Intangible Assets, Patents

 

During the second quarter of 2014 fiscal year the Company acquired the exclusive license rights and intellectual property for the patent of the Kone General device which expires July 2022.  As payment for the license rights the Company agreed to issue 22,768,273 shares of Class “B” Preferred Convertible Non-Voting shares to the shareholders of the original license holders.   The Company accounts for its patent sub-license in accordance with ASC 350-30-30 “Intangibles – goodwill and other” and 805-50-30 and 805-50-15 related to “Business Combinations” by recognizing the fair value to the amount paid by the Company for the asset at the time of purchase.  Since Safe Lane Systems has a limited operating history management determined to use par value as the value recognized for the transaction.  Since the patent has a predetermined, finite life span, the cost of the asset will be recognized on a straight line basis over the remaining life of the patent.  In addition each period the Company will evaluate the intangible asset for impairment.  As of December 31, 2014 no impairment was deemed necessary.

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities consisted of accrued interest of $2,764 and $0 at December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2014 respectively.

 

Unsecured, short-term notes payable

 

The Company obtained an unsecured, short-term note of $250,000 at 4% from the original holder of the license to the Kone-General patent in the second quarter of 2014.  As of December 31, 2014, the Company had received funding of $210,000 on the note payable and had recognized $2,764 in accrued interest expense.

 

Stockholders’ Equity

 

At December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company was authorized to issue 450,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share.  In addition, 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock was authorized with 10,000,000 of Class “A” Preferred Super Majority Voting stock, $0.0001 par value and 30,000,000 shares of Class “B” Preferred Convertible Non-Voting stock, $0.0001 par value nonvoting convertible shares were authorized. All common stock shares have full dividend rights.  However, it is not anticipated that the Company will be declaring distributions in the foreseeable future.

 

Upon formation, the Company sold the founder 2,000,000 shares of $0.0001 par value common stock for $1,000 cash.  Also upon formation, the Company paid the founder stock based compensation for services rendered of 10,000,000 shares of $0.0001 par value Class “A” Preferred Super Majority Voting stock.  These preferred shares have a stated value of par value of $0.0001.  The holder of the Class Stock shall have the right to vote on any matter with holders of Common Stock and may vote as required on any action, which Colorado law provides may or must be approved by vote or consent of the holders of the specific series of voting preferred shares and the holders of common shares.  

 

The Record Holders of the Class “A” Preferred Convertible Non-Voting Shares shall have that number of votes equal to that number of common shares which is not less than 60% of the vote required to approve any action, which Colorado law provides may or must be approved by vote or consent of the holders of other series of voting preferred shares and the holders of common shares or the holders of other securities entitled to vote, if any

 

Upon execution of a patent sublicense agreement the Company issued 22,768,273 shares of its Class “B” Preferred convertible stock to a trustee on behalf of shareholders of the original license agreement.  These shares will convert into regular common stock upon the Company registering the underlying shares with the SEC and listing of the shares on a recognized exchange.

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect 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.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Stock Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for share-based payments pursuant to ASC 718, “Stock Compensation” and, accordingly, the Company records compensation expense for share-based awards based upon an assessment of the grant date fair value for stock warrants and restricted stock awards using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

 

Stock compensation expense for stock warrants is recognized over the vesting period of the award or expensed immediately under ASC 718 and EITF 96-18 when warrants are given for previous service without further recourse. The Company issued stock warrants to contractors that had been providing services to the Company upon their termination of services. Under ASC 718 and EITF 96-18 these warrants were recognized as expense in the period issued because they were given as a form of compensation for services already rendered with no recourse.

 

The following table summarizes share-based compensation expense recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses during each period presented (in thousands):

As of December 31, 2014, future compensation costs related to warrants issued was $0.

 

The fair value of each option granted is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with weighted average assumptions for grants as follows:

 

Risk-free interest rate

0.01%

Expected life of warrants

4-5 years

Annualized volatility

144.00%

Dividend rate

0%

 

Volatility was estimated, due to Company not currently being publicly traded, based upon volatility average of three companies that are currently traded that are in a similar industry.  As the Company currently has only one equity sale which was to a related party, the Company used par value of $.0001 as the current stock price for the Black Scholes calculation, resulting in a calculated expense of $1.00 for the year ended December 31, 2014.  No future expense will result from this as all options vested immediately.

 

Income Tax

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 (“SFAS 109”).  Under SFAS 109 deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss carry-forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences.  Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases.  Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.  The Company’s net operating loss for the period ending December 31, 2014 and 2013 was $122,773 and 0.  The net operating loss carryforward has been fully reserved and will expire December 31, 2034.

 

Fiscal year

 

The Company employs a fiscal year ending December 31.

 

Net Income (Loss) per share

F-11

 


 

The net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common outstanding.  Warrants, stock warrants, and common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Company’s preferred stock (if any), are not included in the computation if the effect would be anti-dilutive and would increase the earnings or decrease loss per share.

 

 Revenue Recognition

 

The Company currently has no revenues. Revenue will be recognized on an accrual basis as earned once operations commence.

 

Financial Instruments

 

The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, as reported in the accompanying balance sheet, are stated at fair value.

 

Going Concern and Managements’ Plans

 

As shown in the accompanying financial statements for the periods ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company has a limited operating history.

 

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

 

The Company has a plan in place to remove this threat through the issuance of notes payable and common stocks offerings.  If the Offering raises at least $250,000, then the Company’s estimated expenses related to the Offering and the expenses related to initial projected operating costs of the Company will be covered. However, the Company will need to generate more than the expenses of the Offering in order to have enough capital to execute its business plan.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

On June 10, 2014, The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-10, Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, consolidation, which removes all incremental financial reporting requirements from GAAP for development stage entities, including the removal of Topic 915 from the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. For the first annual period beginning after December 15, 2014, the presentation and disclosure requirements in Topic 915 will no longer be required for the public business entities. The revised consolidation standards are effective one year later, in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has early adopted the new standard as of the current fiscal year ended December 31, 2014.

 

There are several new accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) which are not yet effective. Each of these pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted by the Company. As of December 31, 2014, none of these pronouncements are expected to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

 

Related Party Transactions

 

The Company pays its Chief Executive Officer, Paul Dickman through Mr. Dickman’s consulting company, Breakwater Finance, LLC.  For the year ended December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, management fees were $60,000 and $0 respectively.

 

Subsequent Events

F-12

 


 

The Company evaluates events and transactions after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued.  As of the date of this filing there were no financially material transactions subsequent to year end.

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

 

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and notes thereto included herein.  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.

 

The independent registered public accounting firm’s report on the Company’s financial statements as of December 31, 2014, and for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, includes a “going concern” explanatory paragraph, that describes substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  

 

PLAN OF OPERATIONS

 

We did not have any revenues and did not recognize any income as of December 31, 2014.  We have negative capital and only our intangible assets, which consist of our business plan, relationships, contracts, and sublicense agreements to manufacture and market the Kone General and the Spring Cone.  We are illiquid and need cash infusions from investors or shareholders to provide capital, or loans from any sources, none of which have been arranged nor assured.

1st Quarter of 2015

 

As of January 1, 2015, the Company had a cash balance of $88,000.  At a current monthly cash burn rate of $12,500, it is estimated that we will run out of cash before the end of August 2015.  We intend to utilize the remaining $40,000 made available through the financing arrangement with the original license holder, Superior Traffic Controls, Inc., to finalize the design of two Kone General prototypes, pay for travel and engagement, and pay for fees associated with the filing of this registration statement and finalizing the offering.  

 

Our milestones in this time period will be to receive additional financing through a private placement, have a design for two Kone General prototypes, refinance or pay off the note payable to Superior Traffic Controls, Inc., and enter into a manufacturing agreement to build the two prototypes.  We will need to raise additional debt or equity capital for funding of operations beyond the first quarter.  If no additional capital is obtained and the Company is not able to refinance or pay off the note to Superior Traffic Controls, Inc., it is highly probable that Safe Lane Systems, Inc. will cease operations.  

 

2nd Quarter of 2015

 

Company's operations during this quarter almost entirely depend on successfully obtaining additional capital in the prior quarter.  Initial priorities will include identifying suppliers and the manufacturing company that will be responsible for making the first Kone General units.  We intend to complete production of two Kone General prototypes before the end of April 2015.  It will take approximately $40,000 to build these prototypes.  Once the two prototypes are built, we intend to spend approximately $50,000 on field testing and necessary procedures to obtain regulatory approval.  The Company will incur approximately $75,000 on general and administrative expenses during

44 

 


this quarter, which may be partially used to compensate for expenses associated with field testing and regulatory approval.  We will identify the most promising sales channels to utilize after the product receives regulatory approval.     

 

During this quarter, primary milestones will be to build and obtain regulatory approval for two Kone General prototypes.    

 

3rd Quarter of 2015

 

Company's operations, during this time period, rely on successfully obtaining sufficient financing as well as completing production and obtaining regulatory approval for two Kone General prototypes.  The primary focus during this quarter will be on marketing and sales assuming that the manufacturing relationship has been proven and we achieved desired results with the product.  It will be important to achieve limited manufacturing with a firm delivery date.  The Company plans to allocate $80,000 to cover marketing and sales expenses.  The budget for sales and marketing will be partially utilized to hire at least two sales representatives, who will be responsible to establish a sales channel through a network of manufacturer's representatives and/or approach DOTs (Department of Transportation) in various states.

 

The milestones during this quarter will be to achieve market acceptance for the Kone General and to sell sample units.  If we are unable to achieve either or both of such milestones, we will have to extend into the following quarter.  If we have orders, we will try to partially finance manufacturing production with some type of accounts receivable financing or issue additional stock, which is not yet arranged and of which there can be no assurance.  

 

4th Quarter 2015

 

Assuming any success in the prior quarter with sales and deliveries, our emphasis in this quarter will again be to increase sales and manufacturing output.  We estimate using approximately $250,000 on marketing and general and administrative expenses.  We will increase sales staff in an expanded nationwide marketing efforts, with resulting expense increases.  However, we may have to allocate marketing funds to support manufacturing of ordered units.  The Company will have to secure either accounts receivable financing or obtain additional capital to support the sales cycle.  

 

Our dominant milestone is the achievement of significant sales increase over the prior quarter.  We intend to focus on continuing to build sales and having sustainable manufacturing.  

 

We will need to seek private placements of debt or equity capital in order to fund operations beyond twelve months of operations to support growth in sales and manufacturing.

 

Our Budget for operations through the end of 2015 is as follows:

 

 

 

Working capital

$300,000

Marketing and sales

250,000

General and administrative expenses

275,000

Audit and legal fees

45,000

Offering commissions and expenses

130,000

Debt repayment

250,000

Total expenses

$1, 250,000

 

The Company may change any or all of the budget categories in the execution of its business model.  None of the line items are to be considered fixed or unchangeable.   The Company may need substantial additional capital to support its budget.   

 

We intend to conduct a private offering raise up to one million, two hundred fifty dollars ($1,250,000) in the next twelve months with a structure not yet determined as debt or equity. As of February 25, 2015, the Company had sold no shares.  We cannot give any assurances that we will be able to raise the full $1,250,000 to fund the budget.

Further, we will need to raise additional funds to support not only our expected budget, but our continued operations.  We cannot make any assurances that we will be able to raise such funds or whether we would be able to raise such funds with terms that are favorable to us.

 

After the twelve month period, we will need to secure an additional $1,500,000 in financing to sustain ongoing operations and support the manufacturing and sales cycle.  If we are unable to secure required funding, it may not be possible to continue operations.

 

No commitments, excluding the $250,000 note payable, have been made to provide additional by our management or other stockholders.  Accordingly, there can be no assurance that any additional funds will be available to us to allow it to cover our expenses as they may be incurred.  

 

Our independent registered public accounting firm’s report on our financial statements as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, includes a “going concern” explanatory paragraph that describes substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

We will need substantial additional capital to support our proposed future traffic cone operations.  We have no revenues.  We have no committed source for any funds as of date here.  No representation is made that any funds will be available when needed.  In the event funds cannot be raised when needed, we may not be able to carry out our business plan, may never achieve sales or royalty income, and could fail in business as a result of these uncertainties.  If our initial prospect appears uneconomical after evaluation we will seek other prospects it the area to acquire or farm into.

 

We may also consider a private placement or public offering of our common stock, if the market conditions allow at the time.  No price, schedule or terms for such an offering has been determined at this time.  We expect to expend funds on a quarterly basis, as follows:

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

For the Year Ended December 31, 2014 Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2013

 

During the year ended December, 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company did not recognize any revenues from it operational activities.  Management does not anticipate recognizing any revenues until the fourth quarter of 2014.

 

During the year ended December, 31, 2014, the Company incurred operational expenses of $122,774.  During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company incurred operational expenses of $1,000 related to shares issued to the Company founder.

 

During the year ended December, 31, 2014, the Company recognized a net loss of $125,538 compared to a net loss of $1,000 during the year ended December 31, 2013.    

 

LIQUIDITY

 

December 31, 2013

 

We had $1,000 cash at December 31, 2013.  Our only other asset at December 31, 2014 was the intangible sublicense agreement to Manufacture and Market the Kone General and Spring Cone.  We will be reliant upon shareholder loans or private placements of our equity and debt to fund any kind operations.  We have secured a commitment to fund $250,000 in debt from the original license holder, Superior Traffic Control’s Inc. to fund our initial operations.  As of the date of this filing they have funded $210,000 of that obligation.  

 

December, 31, 2014

 

At December, 31, 2014, the Company had total current assets of $88,495, consisting of cash.  At December, 31, 2014, total current liabilities were $212,764, consisting of $2,764 in accounts payable and accrued expenses, and $210,000 due to our note holders.    At December, 31, 2014, the Company had working capital deficit of $124,269.

 

During the year ended December, 31, 2014, the Company used $122,505 in funds in it operational activities.  During the year ended December, 31, 2014, the Company recognized a net loss of $125,538 which was adjusted for $268 in amortization expense.  During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company used $0 in its operations as it had not begun operations at that time.

 

During the year ended December, 31, 2014, the Company generated $210,000 in its financing activities, from a loan obligation from Superior Traffic Controls, discussed above and $0 in financing activities.  

 

On April 1, 2014 the Company entered into a note payable with Superior Traffic Controls, Inc. The Note Payable, with a face value of $250,000, bears interest at 4% per annum and matures on March 31, 2015. At December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the convertible advance was recorded at $210.000 and $0, respectively.  Accrued interest related to this advance was $2,764 and $0 at December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, and is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the balance sheet.  

 

Short Term.

 

On a short-term basis, we do not generate any revenue or revenues sufficient to cover operations.  Based on prior history, we will continue to have insufficient revenue to satisfy current and recurring liabilities as it seeks explore.  

 

No commitments to provide additional funds have been made by our management or other stockholders.  Accordingly, there can be no assurance that any additional funds will be available to us to allow it to cover our expenses as they may be incurred.

 

Capital Resources

 

We have only common stock and notes payable as our capital resource.

47 

 


 

Need for Additional Financing  

 

We do not have capital sufficient to meet our cash needs.  We will have to seek loans or equity placements to cover such cash needs.  Once full business operations commences, our needs for additional financing is likely to increase substantially.

 

Within the next twelve months we will need to secure an additional $1,250,000 in financing to implement our plan of operations.  After the twelve month period we will need to secure an additional $1,500,000 in financing to fully implement our plan of operations.  If we are unable to secure required funding, it may be unable to continue operations.

 

No commitments, excluding the $250,000 note payable, have been made to provide additional by our management or other stockholders.  Accordingly, there can be no assurance that any additional funds will be available to us to allow it to cover our expenses as they may be incurred.

 

Material Agreements

 

We have a License (Master IP License) which requires us to commence Sales and Manufacture under the License by January 1, 2016.  Similarly our Sub License (non exclusive) provides that we must commence sales/manufacturing by January 1, 2016.  We have no assurance that we can achieve such requirements given our limited capital and staff.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as cash equivalents.

 

Impairment of Long-life Assets

 

In accordance with ASC Topic 360, the Company reviews its long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of the assets may not be fully recoverable. If the total of the expected undiscounted future net cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the difference between the fair value and carrying amount of the asset.

 

Intangible Assets, Patents

 

The Company accounts for its patent sub-license in accordance with ASC 350-30-30 “Intangibles – goodwill and other” and 805-50-30 and 805-50-15 related to “Business Combinations” by recognizing the fair value to the amount paid by the Company for the asset at the time of purchase.  Since Safe Lane Systems has a limited operating history management determined to use par value as the value recognized for the transaction.  Since the patent has a predetermined, finite life span, the cost of the asset will be recognized on a straight line basis over the remaining life of the patent.  In addition each period the Company will evaluate the intangible asset for impairment.  

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect 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.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

48 

 


Income Tax

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 (“SFAS 109”).  Under SFAS 109 deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss carry-forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences.  Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases.  Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

 

Fiscal year

 

The Company employs a fiscal year ending December 31.

 

Net Income (Loss) per share

 

The net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common outstanding.  Warrants, stock warrants, and common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Company’s preferred stock (if any), are not included in the computation if the effect would be anti-dilutive and would increase the earnings or decrease loss per share.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company is currently in the Development stage and has no revenues. Revenue will be recognized on an accrual basis as earned once operations commence.

 

Financial Instruments

 

The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, as reported in the accompanying balance sheet, are stated at fair value.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company adopted the provisions of and accounts for stock-based compensation using an estimate of value in accordance with the fair value method. Under the fair value recognition provisions of this statement, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which generally is the vesting period.  The Company elected the modified-prospective method, under which prior periods are not revised for comparative purposes.  The valuation method applies to new grants and to grants that were outstanding as of the effective date and are subsequently modified.  

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying amount of accounts payable is considered to be representative of respective fair values because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments.

Conflicts of Interest – General.

 

Our directors and officers are, or may become, in their individual capacities, officers, directors, controlling shareholder and/or partners of other entities engaged in a variety of businesses.  Thus, there exist potential conflicts of interest including, among other things, time, efforts and corporation opportunity, involved in participation with such other business entities.  While the officers and directors of our business are engaged full time in our business activities, the amount of time they devote to other business may be up to approximately 30 hours per week.

 

Conflicts of Interest – Corporate Opportunities

 

Certain of our officers and directors may be directors and/or principal stockholders of other companies and, therefore, could face conflicts of interest with respect to potential acquisitions. In addition, our officers and directors may in the future participate in business ventures, which could be deemed to compete directly with us. Additional conflicts of interest and non-arms length transactions may also arise in the future in the event our officers or directors are involved in the management of any firm with which we transact business. Our Board of Directors has adopted a policy that we will not seek a merger with, or acquisition of, any entity in which management serve as officers or directors, or in which they or their family members own or hold a controlling ownership interest. Although the Board of Directors could elect to change this policy, the Board of Directors has no present intention to do so. In addition, if we and other companies with which our officers and directors are affiliated both desire to take advantage of a potential business opportunity, then the Board of Directors has agreed that said opportunity should be available to each such company in the order in which such companies registered or became current in the filing of annual reports under the Exchange Act subsequent to January 1, 2013.

 

Our officers and directors may actively negotiate or otherwise consent to the purchase of a portion of their common stock as a condition to, or in connection with, a proposed merger or acquisition transaction. It is anticipated that a substantial premium over the initial cost of such shares may be paid by the purchaser in conjunction with any sale of shares by our officers and directors which is made as a condition to, or in connection with, a proposed merger or acquisition transaction. The fact that a substantial premium may be paid to our officers and directors to acquire their shares creates a potential conflict of interest for them in satisfying their fiduciary duties to us and our other stockholders. Even though such a sale could result in a substantial profit to them, they would be legally required to make the decision based upon the best interests of us and our other stockholders, rather than their own personal pecuniary benefit.

 

51 

 


Staffing

 

As of February 4, 2015, we have no employees and 2 independent consultants.  Our officers are now spending part-time in this business – up to 10 hours per week.  This lean staffing is possible in this phase because of our determination to outsource most operating functions. Our staff positions will be filled as budget allows and business demands require, and the positions may be altered in response to business needs.

We have employment agreements as of January 26, 2015, with our key officers, as listed below.  Described below are the compensation packages our Board approved for our executive officers. The compensation agreements were approved by our board based upon recommendations conducted by the board.

 

During the period of September 10, 2013 (inception) through December 31, 2013, we issued 2,000,000 shares of our common stock to the CEO and Chairman and founder, Paul D. Dickman, at a sale price of $0.0005 per share.  In the third quarter of 2014, we engaged Michael Zalle and issued 1,000,000 warrants to purchase our shares of common stock at $0.20 and additional unvested and unearned warrants to purchase 2,000,000 shares subject to continued engagement as an officer and successful sales efforts milestones.

 

(1) Safe Lane Systems, Inc. was incorporated on September 10, 2013.  As Founder, Mr. Dickman received 10,000,000 shares of Class “A” Preferred Super Majority Voting shares at par value of $0.0001 par value.

The $1,000 stock award to Mr. Dickman of 10,000,000 shares of Class "A" Preferred Super Majority Voting shares were calculated based upon the aggregate grant date fair value computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 per disclosure on the 12/31/13 audited financial statements, notes to the financial statements, "Statement of Stockholders' Equity (Deficit).  These Class “A” Preferred shares represent no underlying ownership of our Company itself, and are solely a voting interest in our Company, bear no dividends, and have no market value as none of our shares, preferred or common are traded in any venue, therefore they were valued based upon the stated value within the certificate of designation approved by our Company board.

 

 

WARRANTS/SAR GRANTS IN THE LAST FISCAL YEAR

 

In the third quarter of 2014, we engaged Michael Zalle and issued 1,000,000 warrants to purchase common stock at $0.20 with unvested and unearned warrants for 2,000,000 shares subject to continued engagement as an officer and successful sales efforts.

 

The additional major factors that were included in determining the initial sales price to our founders were the lack of liquidity since there was no present market for our stock and the high level of risk considering our lack of operating history.

(2) Mr. Dickman is also entitled to an administrative fee of 8% of total billings.

 

Director Independence

 

Our board of directors undertook its annual review of the independence of the directors and considered whether any director had a material relationship with us or our management that could compromise his ability to exercise independent judgment in carrying out his responsibilities. As a result of this review, the board of directors affirmatively determined that Messrs. Dickman and Zalle are not “independent” as such term is used under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

There are no promoters being used in relation to this offering.  No person who may, in the future, be considered a promoter of this offering, will receive or expect to receive assets, services or other considerations from us.  No assets will be, nor expected to be, acquired from any promoter on behalf of us.  We have not entered into any agreements that require disclosure to the shareholders.

ITEM 12.  INCORPORATION OF CERTAIN INFORMATION BY REFERENCE

 

Not applicable.

 

ITEM 12A.  DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION OF INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES

 

The Colorado Business Corporation Act requires us to indemnify officers and directors for any expenses incurred by any officer or director in connection with any actions or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative, brought against such officer or director because of his or her status as an officer or director, to the extent that the director or officer has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of the action or proceeding. The Colorado Business Corporation Act permits a corporation to indemnify an officer or director, even in the absence of an agreement to do so, for expenses incurred in connection with any action or proceeding if such officer or director acted in good faith and in a manner in which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of us and such indemnification is authorized by the stockholders, by a quorum of disinterested directors, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion authorized by a majority vote of a quorum of directors consisting of disinterested directors, or by independent legal counsel in a written opinion if a quorum of disinterested directors cannot be obtained.

 

The Colorado Business Corporation Act prohibits indemnification of a director or officer if a final adjudication establishes that the officer's or director's acts or omissions involved intentional misconduct, fraud, or a knowing violation of the law and were material to the cause of action.  Despite the foregoing limitations on indemnification, the Colorado Business Corporation Act may permit an officer or director to apply to the court for approval of indemnification even if the officer or director is adjudged to have committed intentional misconduct, fraud, or a knowing violation of the law.

 

The Colorado Business Corporation Act also provides that indemnification of directors is not permitted for the unlawful payment of distributions, except for those directors registering their dissent to the payment of the distribution.

 

According to our bylaws, we are authorized to indemnify our directors to the fullest extent authorized under Colorado Law subject to certain specified limitations.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”) may be permitted to directors, officers and persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, we are advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

ITEM 14.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

 

Our officers and directors are indemnified as provided by the Colorado Revised Statutes and the bylaws.

 

Under the Colorado Revised Statutes, director immunity from liability to a company or its shareholders for monetary liabilities applies automatically unless it is specifically limited by a company's Articles of Incorporation.  Our Articles of Incorporation do not specifically limit the directors’ immunity.  Excepted from that immunity are: (a) a willful failure to deal fairly with us or our shareholders in connection with a matter in which the director has a material conflict of interest; (b) a violation of criminal law, unless the director had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was lawful or no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful; (c) a transaction from which the director derived an improper personal profit; and (d) willful misconduct.

 

Our bylaws provide that it will indemnify the directors to the fullest extent not prohibited by Colorado law; provided, however, that we may modify the extent of such indemnification by individual contracts with the directors and officers; and, provided, further, that we shall not be required to indemnify any director or officer in connection with any proceeding, or part thereof, initiated by such person unless such indemnification: (a) is expressly required to be made by law, (b) the proceeding was authorized by the board of directors, (c) is provided by us, in sole discretion, pursuant to the powers vested under Colorado law or (d) is required to be made pursuant to the bylaws.

 

Our bylaws provide that it will advance to any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer of us, or is or was serving at the request of us as a director or executive officer of another company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, prior to the final disposition of the proceeding, promptly following request therefore, all expenses incurred by any director or officer in connection with such proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay said amounts if it should be determined ultimately that such person is not entitled to be indemnified under the bylaws or otherwise.

 

Our bylaws provide that no advance shall be made by us to an officer except by reason of the fact that such officer is or was our director in which event this paragraph shall not apply, in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, if a determination is reasonably and promptly made: (a) by the board of directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the proceeding, or (b) if such quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable, a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent

59 


legal counsel in a written opinion, that the facts known to the decisionmaking party at the time such determination is made demonstrate clearly and convincingly that such person acted in bad faith or in a manner that such person did not believe to be in or not opposed to the best interests of us.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS

 

We hereby undertake the following:

 

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

 

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

 

(b)To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this registration statement, or most recent post-effective amendment, which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this registration statement; and

 

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

 

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

 

To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered hereby which remain unsold at the termination of the Offering.

 

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

 

In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities, other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by one of the directors, officers, or controlling persons in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding, is asserted by one of the directors, officers, or controlling persons in connection with the securities being registered, we will unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and we will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

 

For the purposes of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser, if the Registrant is subject to Rule 430C, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

 

The undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser.

 

 (i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 (§ 230.424 of this chapter);

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

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

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