Item 1.  Business.


History


Protect Pharmaceutical Corporation was originally incorporated in the State of Idaho on August 5, 1987, under the name of Interstate Mining and Development Properties, Inc., for the purpose of engaging in the acquisition and development of mining prospects. The company staked certain gold placer mining claims, however the claims did not yield a sufficient amount of ore and the company never became profitable. Operational activities were halted in approximately 1989.


The company remained inactive until January 9, 1996 when it was reinstated in the State of Idaho. On August 2, 1996, the company changed its name to Interstate Development, Inc. During that same month H. Deworth Williams and Geoff Williams acquired controlling interest of the company through the purchase of common stock from the companys two largest shareholders. The company then became engaged in the search for and evaluation of prospective business opportunities and, if justified, potentially to acquire and/or merge with one or more businesses or business opportunities.


On July 3, 2006 at a special meeting of stockholders, the stockholders approve the change of the corporations domicile from Idaho to Nevada. Stockholders also approved the acquisition of Nanolution Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation focused on developing technologies for medical devices, device coatings, and pharmaceutical dosage forms to repurpose drugs and develop novel, improved drug delivery methods for existing, approved drugs. However, the acquisition was never finalized and was abandoned.


On December 14, 2006, the change of domicile to Nevada was finalized by way of merging with and into Interstate Acquisition, Inc. (incorporated in Nevada on June 15, 2006) for the sole purpose of changing domicile. The Idaho entity was then dissolved. On December 15, 2006, we changed the name of the Nevada entity to Pro-Tect, Inc. and continued to explore possible business opportunities.


On February 12, 2010, we entered into a Patent Acquisition Agreement with Nectid, Inc., a privately held Princeton, New Jersey based company, whereby we acquired from Nectid a portfolio of pending patent applications relating to three drug delivery technologies:


 

a gastro-retentive platform for drugs that otherwise have short time windows for absorption:


 

an abuse deterrent platform for prescription drugs that are prone to abuse, especially narcotic pain-killers; and


 

a once-daily platform that allows two or more drugs commonly taken in combination to be delivered via a single dose with fewer side effects.


At the closing of the acquisition, Ramesha Sesha, President of Nectid and the inventor of all the acquired technology, was appointed to our board of directors and as Chief Operating Officer and Chief Scientific Officer. Our primary purpose at that time was to develop drug delivery technologies and solutions through innovative dosing and/or delivery that would minimize the pharmaceutical dose, frequency, and side effects. In connection with the acquisition, we changed our corporate name to Protect Pharmaceutical Corporation on April 23, 2010.




4



In exchange for the acquired patent applications, we issued to Nectid 5.0 million shares of our common stock (pre-split) and agreed to issue an additional 2.0 million shares upon realizing financing of $2.0 million. The acquisition agreement provided certain registration rights whereby the company would use its best efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, which would include shares issued to Nectid under the agreement. We did not realize the financing nor issued the additional 2 million shares and, accordingly, no registration statement was filed.


In June 2010, we filed a Form 10 registration statement under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. As a result of filing the registration statement, we became obligated to file with the SEC certain interim and periodic reports, including an annual report containing audited financial statements.


In December 2010, we amended the acquisition agreement to provide that in the event the company sold outright any of the patents acquired from Nectid, without first undertaking any development of the patents, the proceeds from such sale would be divided, 60% to Nectid and 40% to the Protect.


On January 31, 2011, we finalized a Patent Purchase Agreement with Grünenthal GmbH, a company organized under the laws of Germany. Pursuant to the terms of that agreement, we sold to Grünenthal all of the companys rights, title and interest in and to certain inventions described in patents and patent applications. The sold patents relate to Opioid Formulations and Methods of treating acute and chronic pain.


In exchange for the patents, Grünenthal paid the Company the cash consideration of $1.6 million. Pursuant to our agreement with Nectid, because the patents were sold outright without first undertaking any development of the patents, the proceeds were divided 60% to Nectid and 40% to Protect. Accordingly, we realized $640,000 from the proceeds of the sale and the balance was paid to Nectid. We also retained all other inventions, patents and technologies initially acquired from Nectid.


Current Business


On January 24, 2012, Ramesha Sesha tendered his resignation as an officer and director of the Company.  He was replaced on February 12, 2012 by Geoff Williams as chief executive officer, president, treasurer and director. Following the resignation of Mr. Sesha, we continued to explore possible development and commercialization of the differentiated products based on our remaining proprietary oral drug delivery technologies and patents acquired from Nectid. Subsequently, management concluded that it would be difficult to continue with this plan without acquiring the necessary qualified scientific personnel. Accordingly, we decided to explore alternative business ventures.  


On September 19, 2014, the company entered into a Claims Assignment Agreement with Blue Cap Development Corp., a private Nevada corporation (Blue Cap), to acquire certain mining and/or mineral claims and/or leases located in Sec. 6, T2S, R1W, New Mexico Principal Meridian, of Soccorro County New Mexico (the Claims).


In exchange for the Claims, we issued 26.0 million (pre-split as described below) unregistered shares of authorized, but previously unissued common stock.  The amount of shares was negotiated between the parties and the 26.0 million shares represent approximately 36.9% of Protects 70,513,012 (pre-split) shares outstanding following the acquisition. Two principals of Blue Cap, Edward F. Cowle and H. Deworth Williams, are principal stockholders of Protect owning approximately 31% of Protects common stock prior to the acquisition.  Because of the related nature of the parties to the transaction, Protect endeavored to conduct an independent investigation of Blue Cap and the Claims and research the merits and value of acquiring the Claims.  


Protects President, Geoff Williams, oversaw the investigation and consulted with outside advisors. Geoff Williams is the son of H. Deworth Williams. The company researched information and documents related to the Blue Cap Claims and consulted with other persons familiar with the properties and the industry.  Following the review of all available information, we determined that the acquisition of the Claims presents a unique opportunity for the company.  We also believe that the acquisition was accomplished for a fair, negotiated consideration and the acquisition is in the best interest of our stockholders.


Our decision to enter into the Claims Acquisition Agreement was premised on the Board of Directors intention to diversify the companys future business.  As a result of acquiring the Claims, we are developing a plan to commence an exploration program for the possibility of deposits of rare earth elements on the Claims.  Rare earth elements are essential for a diverse and expanding array of high-technology applications and for many current and emerging alternative energy technologies, such as electric vehicles, energy-efficient lighting, and wind power.  Examples of products that use rare earth elements are computer hard drives, smart phones, TV screens and wind turbines.  Rare earth elements are also critical for a number of key defense systems such as lasers, radar, missile-guidance systems and other electronics.


Management anticipates that the company will need to secure adequate funding to develop and implement an exploration program. There can be no assurance that we will be able to secure the necessary funding to fulfill our goals, or that any future funding will be available on terms favorable to the company, or at all.


Our 10 lode mining claims are located in Sec. 6, T2S, R1W, New Mexico Principal Meridian, of Soccorro County, New Mexico.  The Claims are being held for the purpose of exploration for gold, silver and rare earth mineralization deposits and are located near existing exploration projects and we expect will be explored by other mining companies.  Extensive exploration will be required before we can make a final evaluation as to the economic and legal feasibility of any potential deposit. According to SEC Industry Guide No. 7, we are classified or considered an exploration stage mining company. This is defined as a company engaged in the search for mineral deposits or reserves of precious and base metal targets, which are not in either the development or production stage.


We have limited capital and no current revenues. We anticipate that in the near term, ongoing expenses, including the costs associated with the preparation and filing of requisite reports with the SEC, will be paid for by advances from stockholders or from the private sale of securities, either debt or equity.  However, there is no assurance that we will be able to realize such funds on terms favorable to us, or at all.


Our principal offices are currently located at 2681 Parleys Way, Suite 204, Salt Lake City, UT 84109 and our telephone number is (801) 322-3401.

 

Reverse Stock Split


On November 4, 2014, Protect effected a reverse stock split of its 70,513,012 million issued and outstanding shares of common stock on a one (1) share for one thousand (1000) shares basis. As per the terms of the reverse stock split, any fractional share amount resulting from the split was automatically rounded up to the next higher whole share amount, with the provision that no individual stockholders holdings would be reduced below 100 shares. Accordingly, additional shares to restore each such affected stockholders holdings to 100 shares were issued.  The par value of the common stock remains at $0.005 per share. All subsequent references to the number of shares will be on a post-split basis unless otherwise noted. As a result of the reverse stock split and the rounding up of odd lots to 100 shares, as of the date of this report we have issued and outstanding approximately 106,259 shares of common stock.


As a result of the reverse split, each share certificate representing shares of pre-split common stock will be deemed to represent one-thousandth (1/1000) shares of post-split common stock.  Certificates representing post-split common stock will be issued in due course as old share certificates are tendered for exchange or transfer to the companys transfer agent.


Business Development Strategies


Management has reviewed the companys remaining patents and new generation drug delivery technologies acquired in 2010. However, without personnel with the requisite scientific expertise, management feels it will be difficult to further develop the technologies. As of this date no final decision has been reached regarding the patents and technology. Because of the acquisition of Claims in September 2014, it is likely our future primary business focus will shift to the exploration of the acquired properties to determine whether there is commercial potential.


In order to facilitate an exploration program, we will need to raise adequate funds to complete initial exploration commitments and pay for general business and operating expenses. We estimate that we will need up to $75,000 during the next twelve months to complete the initial phase of exploration and to commence an exploration program on our properties.  Management plans to explore a possible private placement of our securities and/or debt financing to raise the additional fund, although no definitive plan has been formulated and there can be no assurance that we will be able to realize the necessary funds.


If we are able to complete our initial exploration programs and successfully identify a mineral deposit, we will need substantial additional funds for drilling and engineering studies to determine whether any identified mineral deposit is commercially viable. If we are unable to raise additional funds for this work or secure a strategic partner, we would be unable to proceed, even if a mineral deposit is discovered and is believed to be commercially viable.


We are presently developing a comprehensive exploration plan that will include a detailed budget and timeline.  We anticipate that we can finalize this plan before year end 2015.  It is our intent for management to oversee and assess each phase of our proposed exploration to determine whether the results warrant further work. If initial exploration results do not warrant drilling or further exploration, we will most likely suspend operations on the property. In that event, we would need to seek additional exploration properties and additional funding with which to conduct the work. If we are unable to obtain additional financing or additional properties, we may not be able to continue active business operations.


Historically, we have incurred operating losses and we will not be able to exist indefinitely without securing additional operating funds. In the view of our independent auditors, we will require additional funds to maintain operations and these conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.


We anticipate that our immediate funding requirements will have to be satisfied by advances from officers, directors or stockholders. We will most likely accrue expenses until a funding can be accomplished. Management intends to hold expenses to a minimum and to obtain services on a contingency basis when possible.  Further, we expect directors to defer any compensation until such time as we have sufficient funds.  We have not yet entered into any arrangements or definitive agreements to use outside advisors or consultants or to raise any capital.  


As it is most likely we will need to obtain outside financing, possibly the only method available would be the private sale of securities. It is unlikely that we could make a public sale of securities or be able to borrow any significant sum from either a commercial or private lender.  There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain necessary additional funding when and if needed, or that such funding, if available, can be obtained on acceptable terms.




5



Research and Development


Subsequent to the sale of patents and patent applications to Grünenthal, we have not made any expenditure on research and development activities.  We do not anticipate conducting any product research or development over the next 12 months and do not expect to purchase any plant or significant equipment during that time unless we have the necessary funds.


Competition


The exploration for and exploitation of mineral reserves is highly competitive with many local, national and international companies in the marketplace. We must compete against several established companies in the industry that are better financed and/or who have closer working relationships with productive mining companies. We will most likely seek a strategic relationship with a more established and larger mining company to provide assistance, if exploration results so warrant. We have not entered into any agreements with any third parties to produce any minerals from our property, nor have we identified any potential partners in that regards, nor is there any assurance we will be able to secure such agreements. If we are unable to identify and/or partner with any third parties to assist us in attaining production grade minerals, we will likely be unsuccessful in producing any such minerals.

 

Government Regulation


Because we are engaged in the mineral exploration activities, we are exposed to many governmental and environmental risks associated with our business. We are currently in the initial exploration stages and management has not determined whether significant site reclamation costs will be required.

Environmental and other government regulations at the federal, state and local level may include:


surface impact;

water acquisition and treatment;

site access;

reclamation;

wildlife preservation;

licenses and permits; and

maintaining the environment.


Regulatory compliance in the mining industry is complex and the failure to meet and satisfy various requirements can result in fines, civil or criminal penalties or other limitations.


In the event we are able to secure funding necessary to implement an exploration program, we will be subject to regulation by numerous governmental authorities. In order to maintain our claims, we must make annual payments to the BLM and the State of New Mexico.  If we proceed to phase two drilling, we must secure an Access and Land Use Permit. Subsequently, operating and environmental permits will be required from applicable regulatory bodies using technical applications filed by us. The failure or delay in obtaining regulatory approvals or licenses will adversely affect our ability to explore our property and otherwise carry out our business plan.


Any exploration or ultimate production on United States Federal land will have to comply with the Federal Land Management Planning Act, which has the effect generally of protecting the environment. Any exploration or ultimate production on private property, whether owned or leased, will have to comply with the Endangered Species Act and the Clean Water Act. The costs of complying with environmental concerns under any of these acts vary on a case-by-case basis. In many instances the cost can be prohibitive to development. Environmental costs associated with a particular project must be factored into the overall cost evaluation of whether to proceed with the project.


There are no costs to us at the present time except for annual fee payments related to the claims and reclamation bonding requirements of the Bureau of Land Management in connection with compliance with environmental laws. However, because we anticipate engaging in natural resource projects, these costs could occur at any time and the potential liability extensive.


Employees


We currently have no employees. Daily functions are administered by our current directors. We are presently considering the possibility of additional employees, but will add employees only as our business demands warrant and we have the necessary available funds. We also plan to engage consultants from time to time to perform services on a per diem or hourly basis.


Facilities


We currently use as our principal place of business the business office of our President, Geoff Williams, located at 2681 Parleys Way, Suite 204, Salt Lake City, UT 84109. We anticipate that in the future our products will have to be developed by contract manufacturers and, accordingly, we will not initially require production or research space. Management believes that the current facilities are adequate for the immediate future.


Industry Segments


No information is presented regarding industry segments.  We are presently an exploration stage company engaged in the mineral exploration business and considered an exploration stage mining company.  Reference is made to the statements of income included in this Form 10-K for a report of our operating history for the past two fiscal years.

PART II


Item 5.

Market for Registrants Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer

Purchases of Equity Securities.


Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTCQB under the symbol PRTT. There is currently a limited public trading market for our shares and there has been only sporadic trades. The last reported trade on March 23, 2015 was 100 shares at $1.70. Accordingly, because of the limited trading information available, we are not including a historical trading table.


As of the date hereof there are approximately 80 stockholders of record of our common stock, which figure does not take into account those shareholders whose certificates are held in the name of broker-dealers or other nominee accounts. Including those additional stockholders, we estimate the total number of stockholders to be approximately 200.


Secondary trading of our shares may be subject to certain state imposed restrictions. Except for the OTCQB, we have no immediate plans, proposals, arrangements or understandings with any person concerning the development of a trading market in any of our securities. The ability of individual stockholders to trade their shares in a particular state may be subject to various rules and regulations of that state. A number of states require that an issuer's securities be registered in their state or appropriately exempted from registration before the securities are permitted to trade in that state. Presently, we have no plans to register our securities in any particular state.


Recent Issuances of Securities


As a result of the reverse stock split effected on November 4, 2014 on a one (1) share for one thousand (1000) shares basis, fractional share were automatically rounded up to the next higher whole share and any individual stockholders holdings that were reduced below 100 shares were issued additional shares to restore each such affected stockholders holdings to 100 shares. Accordingly, approximately 35,746 shares were issued due to rounding up fractional shares and the rounding of resulting odd lots to 100 shares. Thus, as of the date of this report, we have total outstanding shares of 106,259. Because brokers are responsible for delivering to the transfer agent customer shares that have not yet been split, there is a possibility that additional claims may be made for shares held in nominee name, although we believe that any such claims would not be significant.


During the year ended December 31, 2014 the Company issued an aggregate of 26,000 common shares (post-split) as consideration for acquisition of Claims. For accounting purposes, the shares were valued at par value.  The shares were issued pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 provided by Section 4(2) of that Act.

Penny Stock Rule


The ability of individual stockholders to trade their shares in a particular state may be subject to various rules and regulations of that state. A number of states require that an issuer's securities be registered in their state or appropriately exempted from registration before the securities are permitted to trade in that state. Presently, we have no plans to register our securities in any particular state. Further, our common stock most likely will be subject to the provisions of Section 15(g) and Rule 15g-9 of the Exchange Act, commonly referred to as the "penny stock" rule. Section 15(g) sets forth certain requirements for transactions in penny stocks and Rule 15g-9(d)(1) incorporates the definition of penny stock as that used in Rule 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act.


It is unlikely that our securities will be listed on any national or regional exchange or The NASDAQ Stock Market in the foreseeable future. Therefore our shares most likely will be subject to the provisions of Section 15(g) and Rule 15g-9 of the Exchange Act, commonly referred to as the "penny stock" rule. Section 15(g) sets forth certain requirements for broker-dealer transactions in penny stocks and Rule 15g-9(d)(1) incorporates the definition of penny stock as that used in Rule 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act.


The SEC generally defines a penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Rule 3a51-1 provides that any equity security is considered to be a penny stock unless that security is:


registered and traded on a national securities exchange meeting specified criteria set by the SEC;


authorized for quotation on The NASDAQ Stock Market;


issued by a registered investment company;


excluded from the definition on the basis of price (at least $5.00 per share) or the issuer's net tangible assets; or




8



exempted from the definition by the SEC.


Broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to persons other than established customers and accredited investors are subject to additional sales practice requirements. An accredited investor is generally defined as a person with assets in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 together with their spouse.


For transactions covered by these rules, broker-dealers must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of such securities and must receive the purchaser's written consent to the transaction prior to the purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require the delivery, prior to the first transaction, of a risk disclosure document relating to the penny stock market. A broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements must be sent to clients disclosing recent price information for the penny stocks held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks. Consequently, these rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to trade and/or maintain a market in our common stock and may affect the ability of stockholders to sell their shares.


These requirements may be considered cumbersome by broker-dealers and could impact the willingness of a particular broker-dealer to make a market in our shares, or they could affect the value at which our shares trade. Classification of the shares as penny stocks increases the risk of an investment in our shares.

 

Rule 144


Rule 144 is the common means for a stockholder to resell restricted securities and for an affiliate to sell securities, either restricted or non-restricted (control) shares. Rule 144 was amended by the SEC, effective February 15, 2008.


Under the amended Rule 144, an affiliate of a company filing reports under the Exchange Act who has held their shares for more than six months, may sell in any three-month period an amount of shares that does not exceed the greater of:


the average weekly trading volume in the common stock, as reported through the automated quotation system of a registered securities association, during the four calendar weeks preceding such sale, or


1% of the shares then outstanding.


Sales by affiliates under Rule 144 are also subject to certain requirements as to the manner of sale, filing appropriate notice and the availability of current public information about the issuer.


A non-affiliate stockholder of a reporting company who has held their shares for more than six months, may make unlimited resales under Rule 144, provided only that the issuer has available current public information about itself. After a one-year holding period, a non-affiliate may make unlimited sales with no other requirements or limitations.


An important exception to the above described availability of the amended Rule 144 is that Rule 144 is not available for either a reporting or non-reporting shell company, unless the company:


has ceased to be a shell company;


is subject to the Exchange Act reporting obligations;


has filed all required Exchange Act reports during the preceding twelve months; and


at least one year has elapsed from the time the company filed with the SEC current Form 10 type information reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company.




9



Because we were considered a shell company prior to our acquisition of patent applications, in February 2010, Rule 144 was not available to our stockholders until one year after the filing or our registration statement on Form 10 in June 2010.


We cannot predict the effect any future sales under Rule 144 may have on the market price of our common stock, but such sales may have a substantial depressing effect on such market price.


Dividends Policy


We have never declared cash dividends on our common stock, nor do we anticipate paying any dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.


Item 6.

Selected Financial Data.


This item is not required for a smaller reporting company.


Item 7.

Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.


The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report.

 

We are considered an exploration stage company with no current revenues. We do not expect to realize revenues until we have completed a successful exploration program and are able to produce and market minerals in commercial quantities. We anticipate that in the near term, ongoing expenses, including the costs associated with the preparation and filing reports with the SEC, will be paid for by advances from stockholders or from the private sale of securities, either debt or equity. However, there is no assurance that we will be able to realize such funds on terms favorable to us, or at all.


Results of Operations


We did not realize revenues for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. Operating expenses totaled $30,848 and $23,939 for 2014 and 2013, respectively. Our 2014 expenses consisted $24,848 in professional fees and $6,000 in executive compensation. Expenses for 2013 consisted of $17,759 in professional fees, $6,000 in executive compensation and $180 in general and administrative expenses. The increase in professional fees for 2014 was attributed to additional legal and accounting fees associated with our reporting requirements with the SEC. Also, during 2014 we recorded a gain on forgiveness of liabilities of $488,993, due to an agreement whereby our former President agreed to forgive $486,826 in accrued salaries and $2,167 in accrued expenses. These factors resulted in net income of $458,145 for 2014 compared to a net loss of $23,939 for 2013. The 2014 net income is due to a one time forgiveness of debts and is not expected to reoccur in the future.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


Total assets consisting of cash at December 31, 2014 and 2013 were $502 and $681, respectively.  Total liabilities at December 31, 2014 and 2013 were $121,485 and $595,809, respectively. The decrease in liabilities at the end of 2014 is directly attributed to the forgiveness of accrued officer salaries of $486,826 and accrued expenses of $2,167. At December 31, 2014, liabilities consisted of $61,053 in accounts payable and accrued expenses, $2,380 in accounts payable to related parties, and $58,052 in related party payables. In 2013 the Companys liabilities consisted primarily of $60,104 in accounts payable and accrued expenses, $23,939 in accounts payable to related parties, $24,940 in related party payables, and $486,826 in accrued officer salaries.

Because currently we have no revenues or significant cash reserves, for the immediate future we will have to rely on our directors and/or stockholders to pay expenses or raise funds through the private placement of securities. There is no assurance that we will be able to raise adequate capital in the immediate future to satisfy cash needs. At December 31, 2014, we had total stockholders deficit of $120,983 compared to a stockholders deficit of $595,128 at December 31, 2013.


Plan of Operation


Following the sale of patents, patent applications and technologies to Grünenthal, we have endeavored to explore possible plans for the remaining patents and new generation drug delivery technologies acquired in 2010. However, without adequate personnel with the requisite scientific expertise, we believe it will be difficult to further develop the technologies. As of this date no final decision has been reached regarding the patents and technology. Following the acquisition of Claims in September 2014, we believe that the company will most likely focus on the initial exploration of the acquired properties to determine whether there is commercial potential. We are now in the process of developing a definitive plan for the initial exploration of our Claims.


We are classified or considered an exploration stage mining company, which is defined as a company engaged in the search for mineral deposits or reserves of precious and base metal targets, which are not in either the development or production stage. We have no known mineral reserves on our properties and our proposed preliminary studies of the Claims is intended to be exploratory in nature.


Our current plan is to finalize and initiate an exploration program, to identify our objectives and anticipated growth for the next 12 months, and identify our cash requirements to fulfill our business objectives.  We will need to raise additional funds during the next 12 months to complete our exploration commitments and to pay for general business and operating expenses. We estimate that we will need up to $75,000 during the next twelve months to facilitate an exploration program. Management plans to explore a possible private placement of our securities and/or debt financing to raise the additional fund, although no definitive plan has been formulated and there can be no assurance that we will be able to realize the necessary funds.


If exploration results do not warrant drilling or further exploration, we will most likely suspend operations on the property. In that event, we would need to seek additional exploration properties and additional funding with which to conduct the work. If we are unable to obtain additional financing or additional properties, we may not be able to continue active business operations.


If we are able to complete an initial exploration programs and successfully identify a mineral deposit, we will need substantial additional funds for drilling and engineering studies to determine whether any identified mineral deposit is commercially viable. If we are unable to raise additional funds for this work or secure a strategic partner, we would be unable to proceed, even if a mineral deposit is discovered and is believed to be commercially viable.


Management believes that we will not be able to exist indefinitely without securing additional operating funds. In the view of our independent auditors, we will require additional funds to maintain operations and these conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

We do not anticipate conducting any product research or development over the next 12 months. Also, we do not expect to make any major equipment purchasers or make any significant capital expenditures in the immediate future unless we have the necessary funds. We do not have employees and do not expect to add employees over the next 12 months, except for part-time clerical assistance on an as-needed basis and possibly engaging outside advisors or consultants as requisite funds are available. We anticipate that our current management team will satisfy our everyday operating requirements for the foreseeable future.


Because we currently have limited cash, it may be necessary for officers, directors or stockholders to advance funds and we will most likely accrue expenses until a funding can be accomplished. Management intends to hold expenses to a minimum and to obtain services on a contingency basis when possible.  Further, we expect directors to defer any compensation until such time as we have sufficient funds.  We have not yet entered into any arrangements or definitive agreements to use outside advisors or consultants or to raise any capital.  


Because we currently have no revenues, most likely the only source of funding these expenses will be through the private sale of securities, either equity or debt. We are currently exploring possible funding sources, but we have not entered into any arrangements or agreements for funding as of this time. If we are unable to raise the necessary funding, our research and development plans will be delayed indefinitely. There can be no assurance that we will be able to raise the funds necessary to carry out our business plan on terms favorable to the company, or at all.

Net Operating Loss


We have accumulated approximately $2,713,179 of net operating loss carryforwards as of December 31, 2014. This loss carry forward may be offset against taxable income and income taxes through the year 2034. The use of these losses to reduce future income taxes will depend on the generation of sufficient taxable income prior to the expiration of the net operating loss carryforwards. In the event of certain changes in control, there will be an annual limitation on the amount of net operating loss carryforwards which can be used. No tax benefit has been reported in the financial statements for fiscal years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 because it has been fully offset by a valuation reserve. The use of future tax benefit is undeterminable because presently we have not started full operations.


Inflation


In the opinion of management, inflation has not and will not have a material effect on our operations in the immediate future. Management will continue to monitor inflation and evaluate the possible future effects of inflation on our business and operations.


Off-balance Sheet Arrangements


We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.



Recent Accounting Pronouncements


Management has considered all recent accounting pronouncements issued since the last audit of the Companys financial statements. The Companys management believes that these recent pronouncements will not have a material effect on the Companys financial statements.

Item 8.


Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.


Financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 have been examined to the extent indicated in their reports by Sadler, Gibb & Associates, L.L.C, independent registered public accountants and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and pursuant to regulations promulgated by the SEC.


 



REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


To the Board of Directors

Protect Pharmaceutical Corporation


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Protect Pharmaceutical Corporation (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 Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.   


We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide 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 Protect Pharmaceutical Corporation as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the results of their operations and cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.


The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has accumulated deficit of $8,714,828 as of December 31, 2014 which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Managements plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND HISTORY


Business and Organization


The financial statements presented are those of Protect Pharmaceutical Corporation (the Company).  The Company was originally incorporated under the laws of the state of Idaho on August 5, 1987.  The Company was incorporated for the purpose of purchasing, leasing or otherwise acquiring mining claims and rights and also to develop mines. The Company was unable to raise development money and the Companys operations ceased.  

 

On June 15, 2006, the name of the Company changed to Pro-Tect, Inc. and its domicile was moved to the state of Nevada.  Subsequently, the Company changed its name on April 23, 2010 to Protect Pharmaceutical Corporation and engaged in licensing its patented pharmaceuticals technologies.


Following the sale of the majority of its patents in January 2011, the Company began to explore alternative business ventures.  On September 19, 2014, the Company acquired certain mining and/o mineral claims and/or lease located in New Mexico and is currently developing an exploration plan to determine the viability of its claims.


NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Accounting Method


These financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The Companys fiscal year-end is December 31. The Company has realized no revenues from operations as of December 31, 2014 and is classified as a development stage enterprise.


Use of Estimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Cash and Cash Equivalents


The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013 the Company had $502 and $681 of cash and cash equivalents, respectively.


Revenue Recognition


During the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 the Company earned no revenues.  Revenue recognition policies will be finalized and implemented by management upon the commencement of planned principal operations.


Advertising Costs


The Company follows the policy of expensing advertising costs during the period in which they are incurred. The Company incurred no advertising costs during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

 


NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)


Mineral Property Acquisition Costs

The costs of acquiring mineral properties are capitalized and amortized over their estimated useful lives following the commencement of production or expensed if it is determined that the mineral property has no future economic value or the properties are sold or abandoned.

Cost includes cash consideration and the fair market value of shares issued on the acquisition of mineral properties. Properties acquired under option agreements, whereby payments are made at the sole discretion of the Company, are recorded in the accounts at such time as the payments are made.

The recoverable amounts for mineral properties is dependent upon the existence of economically recoverable reserves; the acquisition and maintenance of appropriate permits, licenses and rights; the ability of the Company to obtain financing to complete the exploration and development of the properties; and upon future profitable production or alternatively upon the Company's ability to recover its spent costs from the sale of its interests. The amounts recorded as mineral properties reflect actual costs incurred and are not intended to express present or future values.

The capitalized amounts may be written down if potential future cash flows, including potential sales proceeds, related to the property are estimated to be less than the carrying value of the property. Management of the Company reviews the carrying value of each mineral property interest quarterly, and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Reductions in the carrying value of each property would be recorded to the extent the carrying value of the investment exceeds the estimated future net cash flows.

Exploration and Development Costs

Exploration costs are expensed as incurred. When it is determined that a mining deposit can be economically and legally extracted or produced based on established proven (measured) and probable (indicated) reserves, further exploration costs and development costs incurred after such determination will be capitalized. The establishment of proven and probable reserves is based on results of final feasibility studies which indicate whether a property is economically feasible. Upon commencement of commercial production, capitalized costs will be transferred to the appropriate asset category and amortized over their estimated useful lives. Capitalized costs, net of salvage values, relating to a deposit which is abandoned or considered uneconomic for the foreseeable future, will be written off.

Impairment of Mineral Rights

The Company reviews mineral rights for indicators of impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. If the review indicates that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable, the potential impairment is measured based on a projected discounted cash flow method using a discount rate that is considered to be commensurate with the risk inherent in the company's current business model. During the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company recorded no impairment to mineral rights.











NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)


Stock-based Compensation


The Company adopted ASC 718 effective January 1, 2006 using the modified prospective method. Under this transition method, stock compensation expense includes compensation expense for all share-based compensation awards granted on or after January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718. During the years ending December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company issued $-0- and $-0-, respectively, in share-based payments for services.


Provision for Taxes


The Company applies ASC 740, which requires the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes.  The asset and liability method requires that the current or deferred tax consequences of all events recognized in the financial statements are measured by applying the provisions of enacted tax laws to determine the amount of taxes payable or refundable currently or in future years. Deferred tax assets are reviewed for recoverability and the Company records a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be recovered.


The Company adopted ASC 740 at the beginning of fiscal year 2009. This interpretation requires recognition and measurement of uncertain tax positions using a more-likely-than-not approach, requiring the recognition and measurement of uncertain tax positions. The adoption of ASC 740 had no material impact on the Companys financial statements.


Basic Income (Loss) per Common Share


Basic income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the Companys net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the Companys net income available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year.

 

The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. There are no such common stock equivalents outstanding as of December 31, 2014 and 2013.

NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)


Recent Accounting Pronouncements


In June 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-10, which eliminated certain financial reporting requirements of companies previously identified as Development Stage Entities (Topic 915). The amendments in this ASU simplify accounting guidance by removing all incremental financial reporting requirements for development stage entities. The amendments also reduce data maintenance and, for those entities subject to audit, audit costs by eliminating the requirement for development stage entities to present inception-to-date information in the statements of income, cash flows, and shareholder equity.   Early application of each of the amendments is permitted for any annual reporting period or interim period for which the entitys financial statements have not yet been issued (public business entities) or made available for issuance (other entities). Upon adoption, entities will no longer present or disclose any information required by Topic 915.  The Company has adopted this standard and will not report inception to date financial information.


Management has considered all other recent accounting pronouncements issued since the last audit of the Companys financial statements. The Companys management believes that these recent pronouncements will not have a material effect on the Companys financial statements.


NOTE 3 GOING CONCERN


The Companys financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.  However, the Company the Company has an accumulated deficit of $8,714,828 as of December 31, 2014 which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.  It is the intent of the Company to seek a merger with an existing, operating company.  In the interim, shareholders of the Company have committed to meeting its minimal operating expenses.


NOTE 4 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS


Various startup expenses of the Company including purchase of property and equipment, officers compensation and general and administrative expenses have been paid for using funds provided by two directors of the Company. The liabilities are non-interest bearing, unsecured and due upon demand. The Company owed $2,380 and $23,939 for such payables as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. These amounts due are for services rendered by related parties.


During the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 certain administrative services were contributed to the Company by officers.  These services were valued at $6,000 during 2014 and 2013.


The Company has recorded advances from related parties and expenses paid by related parties on behalf of the Company as related party payables. As of December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, the related party payable outstanding balance totaled $58,052 and $24,940. These payables are non-interest bearing, unsecured, and are due on demand.


During 2014, an entity controlled by a Company officer assumed and forgave $10,000 in Company liabilities. The Company recorded $10,000 as additional paid-in capital as a result of this debt assumption and forgiveness.


NOTE 5 COMMON AND PREFERRED STOCK


On June 20, 2011, the Company received written consent from its majority stockholders to amend the Companys articles of incorporation to change the authorized capitalization. The board of directors previously approved the resolution to increase the number of authorized common stock from 50,000,000 to 100,000,000 shares and to authorize 10,000,000 shares of blank check preferred shares.



NOTE 5 COMMON AND PREFERRED STOCK (CONTINUED)


The newly authorized preferred shares may be issued from time to time in one or more series in the discretion of the board of directors. The board will have the authority to establish the number of shares to be included in each such series, and to fix the designation, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each such series and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof. As of December 31, 2014, no preferred shares have been issued and none are outstanding.


On September 19, 2014, the Company issued 26,000 shares of common stock to Blue Cap Development Corp. in exchange for certain mining and/or mineral claims and/or leases located in New Mexico. Two principals of Blue Cap, Edward F. Cowle and H. Deworth Williams, are principal stockholders of the Company.


On November 4, 2014, the Company effected a reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding shares of common stock on a one (1) share for one thousand (1000) shares basis. As per the terms of the reverse stock split, any fractional share amount resulting from the split was automatically rounded up to the next higher whole share amount, with the provision that no individual stockholders holdings would be reduced below 100 shares. Additional shares to restore each such affected stockholders holdings to 100 shares were issued.  The par value of the common stock remains at $0.005 per share. As a result of the reverse stock split and the rounding up of odd lots to 100 shares, at December 31, 2014, there were 89,459 shares certificated and outstanding, although not all shareholders had made claims for additional rounding shares.


NOTE 6 INCOME TAXES


The Company provides for income taxes under ASC 740 Tax Provisions. ASC 740 requires the use of an asset and liability approach in accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in effect when these differences are expected to reverse.


ASC 740 requires the reduction of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.


The provision for income taxes differs from the amounts which would be provided by applying the statutory federal income tax rate of 34% to net loss before provision for income taxes for the following reasons:

Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carry forwards of $2,713,179 for federal income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in ownership occur net operating loss carry forwards may be limited as to use in future years.









NOTE 7 SIGNIFICANT AGREEMENTS


On February 6, 2009, the Company entered into a Patent Acquisition Agreement, whereby it was assigned various patents for pharmaceutical products in exchange for 7,000,000 shares of the Companys common stock. 5,000,000 shares were delivered immediately to the assignor and 2,000,000 shares are held to be delivered upon the successful completion of $2,000,000 financing. The patents are also subject to a 20% royalty on revenues, a 10% milestone payment and an employment agreement. The Company is responsible for the completion of a development program to commercialize products using the patented technologies within 5 years.

 

The employment agreement provides that the patent holder will become the Companys Chief Operating Officer. The agreement provides for an annual salary $250,000 in year one, $300,000 in year two and $350,000 in year three. The agreement also provides for compensatory common stock purchase warrants to be issued at not less than 20% of the shares issued for financing and other standard employee benefits. In January, 2013, the Chief Operating Officer resigned and the employment agreement expired, leaving a remaining balance owing in Accrued officer salaries of $486,826 on the balance sheet for both December 31, 2013.  


During the December 2014, this amount and $2,167 of accrued expenses owed to this former Officer was forgiven, resulting in a gain of $488,993.


NOTE 8 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS


Subsequent to year end, the Company issued 16,800 shares to beneficial shareholders pursuant to the rounding terms of the reverse stock split.


In accordance with ASC 855-10, Company management reviewed all material events through the date of this report, and there are no other material subsequent events to report.

Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

Item 9A.

Controls and Procedures


Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures


As of the end of the period covered by this annual report, management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and principal financial officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Rules 13a-15(e) and 15-d-15(e). Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and financial officer concluded that as of December 31, 2014, our disclosure controls and procedures are ineffective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is:


(i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms; and


(ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.


In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that there are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their desired control objectives. Additionally, in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures, management is required to apply its reasonable judgment.


Managements Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting


Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for our company. Our control system is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:


pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and disposition of our assets;


provide reasonable assurance that the transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of the financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts and expenditures are being made only with proper authorizations; and


provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.


Because of inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.




13



Management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting Guidance for Smaller Public Companies. Based on our assessment and those criteria, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was ineffective as of December 31, 2014.


Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting


Management has concluded that controls over both disclosure controls and financial reporting controls are ineffective due to material weaknesses in maintaining sufficient segregation of duties. Due our size and limited resources, we are unable at this time to implement and maintain proper segregation of duties.


There have been no significant changes in our internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors that could materially affect, or would be likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting subsequent to the date we carried out our evaluation.

Position

Geoff Williams

President, CEO and Director


Rachel Winn

          44    Secretary and Director


Alice Williams

          80    Treasurer and Director



On March 5, 2015, Keith Elison tendered his resignation as Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Elison had served as CFO since April 2011 resigned for personal reasons. At the time of his resignation, there were no disagreements between Mr. Elison and the Company on any matter relating to the companys operations, policies or practices.


On August 20, 2014, the board of directors accepted Nancy Ah Chongs resignation as a director and officer (Secretary) and Rachel Winn and Alice Williams were appointed as new directors.  Ms. Winn was also appointed as Secretary and Ms. Williams was appointed as Treasurer.


All directors hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified. There are no agreements with respect to the election of directors. We have not compensated current directors for service on the board of directors or any committee thereof. Directors are entitled to be reimbursed for expenses incurred for attendance at meetings of the board and any committee of the board. However, directors may defer expenses and/or take payment in shares of Protect common stock. As of the date hereof, no director has accrued any expenses or compensation. Officers are appointed annually by the board and each executive officer serves at the discretion of the board. Presently we do not have any standing committees.

 

No director, officer or affiliate has, within the past five years, filed any bankruptcy petition, been convicted in or been the subject of any pending criminal proceedings, or is any such person the subject or any order, judgment, or decree involving the violation of any state or federal securities laws.


Currently, there is no arrangement, agreement or understanding between management and non-management stockholders under which non-management stockholders may directly or indirectly participate in or influence the management of our affairs. Present management openly accepts and appreciates any input or suggestions from stockholders. However, the board of directors is elected by stockholders and the stockholders have the ultimate say in who represents them on the board. There are no agreements or understandings for any officer or director to resign at the request of another person and none of the current offers or directors are acting on behalf of, or will act at the direction of any other person.


The following sets forth the business experience of our directors, including specific qualifications to serve as director in light of our business:


Geoff Williams.  Mr. Williams has served as chief executive officer, president, and director since February, 2012. He is also presently serving as acting principal accounting officer. From 1994 to the present, Mr. Williams has been a representative of Williams Investments Company, a Salt Lake City, Utah financial consulting firm involved in facilitating mergers, acquisitions, business consolidations and financings.  Mr. Williams attended the University of Utah and California Institute of the Arts.  Mr. Williams also serves as our principal financial officer and principal accounting officer.




15



Mr. Williams is currently a director, President and C.E.O. of Westgate Acquisitions Corp. and, until he resigned in February 2010, he was a director, President and C.E.O. of Greyhound Commissary, Inc., now known as Tanke Biosciences Corp. Mr. Williams was also a director of U.S. Rare Earths, Inc. from November 2011 to August 2012


Rachel Winn.  Ms. Winn was appointed a director and Secretary on August 20, 2014. Since May 1, 2009, she has been the assistant office manager at Williams Investment Company. On October 3, 2012, Ms. Winn was appointed a director and secretary of Westgate Acquisitions Corporation, an exploration stage company. Ms. Winn also serves as a Director on the Board of Directors of Red Mountain Inc. and Fortune Viniculture. Recently, she has assumed the responsibility of overseeing all secretarial services concerning Elite Engineering Solutions, and is the personal assistant to Shaun Wyllie, the companys Director of Operations.

Ms. Winn graduated from East High school in 1988. She then went on to work at a Reservations Network in Park City, Utah from 1988 until 1991. Her duties included typing, filing, reception and property management. In 1991 she moved to Salt Lake City and worked in the food service industry at The Red Lion Hotel, Harris and Davids Café, Dees Family Restaurant and at The Other Place Restaurant. In 2005, Ms. Winn became the Client Services Coordinator at the law firm of Ray Quinney and Nebeker in Salt Lake City until 2007 when she accepted a position at Adult Beverage Control Systems, supervising the Northern portion of the Salt Lake Valley until 2009.  Ms. Winn is the wife of Geoff Williams.


Alice Williams graduated from East High school in Salt Lake City in 1953 and attended the University of Utah for 3 years studying English Literature. In 1960 she became the owner and sole operator of Beaux Arts Beauty Salon in downtown Salt Lake City, Utah working as a full time cosmetologist until 1968.  In 1978, Mrs. Williams founded and became President of the Park City Womens Golf Association. Although she is no longer President of that association, she remains an active member. In 1982 Ms. Williams became a board member and social director of the University of Utah Writers at work where she began a news column called Ask Alice that was published in New Jerseys Good Times Magazine. She remained on the board until 1987. In 2014, Mrs. Williams became a director and Treasurer of the company. Ms. Williams is the mother of the companys President, Geoff Williams.


Committees of the Board of Directors


Currently we do not have any standing committees of the board of directors. Until such time as formal committees are established, our board of directors will perform some of the functions associated with a nominating committee and a compensation committee, including reviewing all forms of compensation provided to our executive officers, directors, consultants and employees, including stock compensation. The board will also perform the functions of an audit committee until we establish a formal audit committee.


Code of Ethics


We have not adopted a Code of Ethics and Business Conduct applicable to our directors and employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer and controller, or persons performing similar functions. We anticipate that we will adopt a Code of Ethics in the future.


Compliance With Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act


Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than 10% of our common stock, to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of our common stock and other equity securities. We believe that no reports were filed during the fiscal year 2014.

 

Item 11. 

Executive Compensation.


Under the terms of Mr. Ramesha Seshas employment agreement, he was to receive a salary of $250,000 per year, with annual increases, for his services as Chief Operating Officer. No salary was paid to him in 2010.  Only a portion of his salary was paid to him in 2011, with the unpaid balance being recorded as accrued officer salaries.  Upon his resignation in January, 2012, Mr. Seshas accrued officer salary remained unpaid.


On December 11, 2014, the company entered into a Mutual Release and Settlement Agreement with Mr. Sesha whereby Mr. Sesha agreed to waive and relinquish the companys obligation to him for all accrued salary compensation or other remuneration, debt or expenses. The agreement also provided for a mutual release and indemnification whereby each party agreed to irrevocably release, hold harmless and forever discharge the other party from any and all past, present and future fixed or contingent liabilities, claims, causes of action, counter claims, damages, or proceedings, of whatever nature, arising in connection with Mr. Seshas employment agreement or his affiliation with the company.  As a result of executing the agreement, the company was able to write-off approximately $486,826 in accrued officer salaries and $2,167 in accrued expenses from its financial statements.


Item 12.

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters.


The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of our shares of common stock by:


each person known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our outstanding shares of common stock;


each of our directors;


our executive officers; and


by all directors and executive officers as a group.


Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with SEC rules. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, shares of common stock subject to options or warrants held by that person that are currently exercisable or will become exercisable within 60 days after the date of this report, are deemed outstanding, but those shares are not deemed outstanding for purposes of computing percentage ownership of any other person. The number and percentage of shares beneficially owned are based on 106,259 shares of common stock outstanding as of April 15, 2015 and reflects the reverse stock split effected in November 2014. Each person named in the table has sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares shown as beneficially owned by that person, subject to community property laws, where applicable. The address of each person listed below, unless otherwise indicated, is c/o Protect Pharmaceutical Corporation, 2681 East Parleys Way, Suite 204, Salt Lake City, Utah 84109.

Item 13. 

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.


Since the beginning of the companys last fiscal year, to the best knowledge of the company there was no person who had or has a direct or indirect material interest in any transaction, or proposed transaction to which the company was or is a party.





Item 14.

Principal Accounting Fees and Services.


We do not have an audit committee and as a result our entire board of directors performs the duties of an audit committee. Our board of directors will approve in advance the scope and cost of the engagement of an auditor before the auditor renders audit and non-audit services. As a result, we do not rely on pre-approval policies and procedures.


 

Audit Fees


The aggregate fees billed by our independent auditors, Sadler, Gibb & Associates, L.L.C., for professional services rendered for the audit of our annual financial statements included in our annual reports for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 were $10,000 and $8,500, respectively.


Audit Related Fees


For the year ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, there were no fees billed for assurance and related services by Sadler, Gibb & Associates, L.L.C. relating to the performance of the audit of our financial statements which are not reported under the caption "Audit Fees" above.


Tax Fees


For the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, no fees were billed by Sadler, Gibb & Associates, L.L.C. for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning.


We do not use Sadler, Gibb & Associates, L.L.C. for financial information system design and implementation. These services, which include designing or implementing a system that aggregates source data underlying the financial statements or generates information that is significant to our financial statements, are provided internally or by other service providers. We do not engage Sadler, Gibb & Associates, L.L.C. to provide compliance outsourcing services.


The board of directors has considered the nature and amount of fees billed by Sadler, Gibb & Associates, L.L.C. and believes that the provision of services for activities unrelated to the audit is compatible with maintaining Sadler, Gibb & Associates, L.L.C.s independence.
