PART I
Company Overview
Spiral Energy Tech, Inc. (f/k/a Solid Solar Energy, Inc.) (“Spiral”, “our”, “us”, “we” or the “Company”) was incorporated on January 18, 2008 in the State of Nevada as a for-profit company. On May 16, 2013, we filed a certificate of amendment to the Company’s amended and restated articles of incorporation to change our name to “Spiral Energy Tech., Inc.” from Solid Solar Energy, Inc.
On October 1, 2014, Spiral entered into a Merger Agreement with Fuse Science, Inc. (“Fuse”) and Acquisition Sub. Upon the closing of the Merger, Acquisition Sub merged with and into Spiral, and Spiral, as the surviving entity, became a 51% majority-owned subsidiary of Fuse. As a result of the Merger, among other effects, at the effective time of the Merger, (i) 51% of Spiral’s shares of common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time (calculated on a pro rata basis among the shareholders of Spiral immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger) were automatically cancelled and retired and ceased to exist and certificates previously evidencing any such shares thereafter represented the right to receive an aggregate of 150,000,000 newly issued shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Fuse, or, at the election of any holder of Spiral common stock who, as a result of receiving shares of Fuse common stock in connection with the Merger would hold in excess of 4.9% of the issued and outstanding shares of Fuse common stock, shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Fuse; (ii) 49% of the Spiral shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time (calculated on a pro rata basis among the shareholders of Spiral immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger) remained outstanding and (iii) the shares of common stock of Merger Sub, par value $0.0001 per share, held by Fuse immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Fuse, were converted into the right to receive an aggregate of 7,723,892 shares of Spiral, which at the time of the Merger represented 51% of Spiral’s issued and outstanding common stock. Subsequent to June 30, 2015, Fuse delivered shares of Spiral to third parties as payment for various costs and expenses. As a result of these transfers, as of the date hereof, Fuse holds less than 7.5% of Spiral’s current outstanding shares.
Our primary focus has been on developing and commercializing our proprietary SkyPorts drone support and Energy Demand Network (“EDEN”) technology. This technology seeks to permit a drone to operate predictably many miles outside of a “home range” limitation, defined by the drone’s finite battery power, by allowing for a flight path of numerous stops (or waypoints) at recharging stations along the way, thus extending the limit of the drone’s useful range. We have filed the following patent applications for technology related to SkyPorts and EDEN technology: US Provisional patent application No. 62/075,317; Drone Recharging Station and Method of Networking; and US Provisional patent application No. 62/145,216; Controlling Autonomous UAV Delivery Based Fleet Services
Also, we have been engaged in developing and commercializing our XTRAX(R) remote monitoring system, designed to measure the production of solar and other renewable energy systems and to enable transmission of the data via the cellular and radio frequency network (and potentially via microwave transmission network or satellite). On April 25, 2013, we purchased the patents and trademarks relating to the XTRAX(R) remote monitoring system from Carbon 612 Corporation and one of its creditors. On May 13, 2013, we entered into an agreement with a patent assertion entity, Endeavor IP, Inc. (“Endeavor”) pursuant to which we sold Endeavor the XTRAX(R) patents in exchange for $100,000 cash and shares of Endeavor common stock and obtained a perpetual, royalty-free, irrevocable, non-exclusive and worldwide license to develop, distribute and sell the products and services covered by the patents and to a portion of the revenues generated by patent enforcement activities. Currently, Spiral is not generate revenue from either its SkyPorts or EDEN drone technology or from the XTRAX(R) remote monitoring system.
Business Strategy
Our core business strategy is to employ our technology in non-military, commercial drones, targeting the enthusiast and commercial application market sector. We intend to obtain revenues from partnerships and joint ventures with drone manufacturers and being compensated for customization, research and development of our technology. Our principal activities to date have been focused on design, research and development.
As of December 31, 2015, we had no products available for sale. There can be no assurance that our technology will be commercially successful. In addition, we operate in an environment of rapid change in technology and are dependent upon the continued services of our current employees, consultants and subcontractors.
On January 29, 2016, Ezra Green resigned as our CEO and member of our board of directors (the “Board”). Concurrently with the resignation of Ezra Green, the Board appointed Elliot Maza, our current Chief Financial Officer, to serve as our new Chief Executive Officer and as a member of the Board. Mr. Maza, with the Board’s approval, has undertaken a strategic review of the Company’s operations and has recommended to the Board certain strategic alternatives for optimizing the Company’s asset portfolio, including divestiture of the current asset portfolio in favor of new lines of business.
Research and Development Costs
We have devoted substantially all of our efforts and resources to developing and commercializing our proprietary SkyPorts drone support and EDEN technology. Due to various uncertainties and risks, it is not possible to accurately predict future spending or time to completion by project or project category. Research and Development costs were $77,344 and $58,320 for the year ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.
Competition
The Company expects to face competition in its SkyPorts and drone support services. SkySense, Inc.’s Skysense Charging Pad, described as an indoor-outdoor remote-controlled charging station dock with electric power input that is compatible with a variety of drone platforms, is the only known device seeking to extend the battery range of electric commercial drones. We are not aware of other companies focused on recharge technology and autonomous flight being developed to extend the practical range of commercial drone use.
The Company expects to face competition in its XTRAX technology. Potential competitors include Centrosolar America, Inc.’s CentroData monitoring system for residential photovoltaic installations, which offers web-based monitoring; Energy, Inc.’s Power Track product, primarily directed to immediately detect any problem in a photovoltaic installation with immediate automated alerts to minimize downtime; Energy, Inc.’s DECK Monitoring, a basic residential meter that is focused on system performance; Locus Energy, LLC’s web-based residential meter that records performance data and stores it on a website for viewing by the homeowner or the homeowner’s installation contractor; and Energy, Inc.’s The Energy Detective lines of web-based meters, designed to measure and report the usage of electricity.
Many of the Company’s competitors are large with established businesses and have substantially greater resources than the Company does.
Government Regulation and Required Approvals
The Company’s SkyPort drone support technology is subject to regulation by the FAA. Under the present FAA regulations, the Company’s proposed business is limited to sales to local governments for law enforcement and other purposes.
On February 15, 2015, the FAA issued proposed regulations relating to small drones (under 55 pounds) conducting non-recreational operations. A proposed rule would limit flights to daylight only and visual line of sight operations. This latter limitation would severely hamper the Company’s proposed business, because it relies upon flying drones well beyond the visual line of sight where the Company’s technology would charge them to expand their reach. In its proposed release, the FAA asked for public comment and whether the rule should permit operations beyond line of sight and what limitations there should be. The proposed regulations will not apply to government aircraft operations which would continue to operate under exemptions issued by the FAA.
On March 23, 2015, the FAA announced that it has implemented an interim policy to speed up the exemption process for certain commercial operators. The process would allow flights below 200 feet using drones that weigh less than 55 pounds; however, no exemption would be granted unless the drones operated within visual line of sight and then only during daylight. The Company cannot predict what the final FAA regulations will be and how they will impact the Company’s proposed SkyPort drone support technology business.
The Company’s proposed XTRAX(R) operations are subject to a variety of federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations relating to worker safety, zoning, building and electrical codes, and the use, storage, discharge and disposal of environmentally sensitive materials. The Company believes that compliance with such laws, rules, regulations and requirements does not impose a material impediment on the Company’s ability to conduct business.
Employees
As of December 31, 2015, Mr. Ezra Green, our former Chief Executive Officer, was our sole employee. On January 29, 2016, Ezra Green resigned as our CEO and member of our Board and the Board appointed Elliot Maza, currently our CFO, to serve as our new Chief Executive Officer and as a member of the Board. We do not have a written employment agreement or other formal compensation agreement with Mr. Maza. There are no other employees.
Outsourcing
We outsource our research and development activities. We believe that this outsourcing strategy is the optimal method for developing our products given our current and anticipated financial resources.
Marketing
We do not have an organization for the sales, marketing and distribution of our product candidates. Our core business strategy is to employ our technology in non-military, commercial drones, targeting the enthusiast and commercial application market sector by partnering with drone manufacturers and resellers. We do not intend to manufacture or market any products and do not anticipate a need for any manufacturing, sales, and marketing or distribution capabilities.
Insurance Coverage
We maintain General Liability Insurance.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this report and “Special Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements” above.
General
We are a technology company engaged in the development and commercialization of our proprietary SkyPorts drone support and Energy Demand Network, or (“EDEN”) technology. This technology seeks to permit a drone to operate predictably many miles outside of a “home range” limitation, defined by the drone’s finite battery power, by allowing for a flight path of numerous stops (or waypoints) at recharging stations along the way, thus extending the drone’s useful range. We have no plans to build or design any drones or autonomous vehicles; rather we intend to employ our technology in non-military drones manufactured by existing third party commercial manufacturers.
On April 25, 2013, we purchased the patents and trademarks relating to the XTRAX(R) remote monitoring system from Carbon 612 Corporation and one of its creditors. The XTRAX(R) system is designed to measure the production of solar and other renewable energy systems and to enable transmission of the data via the cellular and radio frequency network (and potentially via microwave transmission network or satellite). On May 13, 2013, we entered into an agreement with a patent assertion entity, Endeavor IP, Inc. (“Endeavor”) pursuant to which we sold the XTRAX(R) patents in exchange for $100,000 cash and shares of Endeavor common stock. We obtained a perpetual royalty-free, irrevocable, non-exclusive and worldwide license to develop, distribute and sell the products and services covered by the patents and to obtain a portion of the revenues generated by Endeavor’s patent enforcement activities.
Our core business strategy is to employ our technology in non-military, commercial drones, targeting the enthusiast and commercial application market sector. We intend to obtain revenues from partnerships and joint ventures with drone manufacturers and being compensated for customization, research and development of our technology. Our principal activities to date have been focused on design, research and development. Presently, we do not generate any revenue from our SkyPorts or EDEN drone technology or from the XTRAX(R) remote monitoring system.
On January 29, 2016, Ezra Green resigned as our CEO and member of our board of directors (the “Board”). Concurrently with the resignation of Ezra Green, the Board appointed Elliot Maza, our current Chief Financial Officer, to serve as our new Chief Executive Officer and as a member of the Board. Mr. Maza, with the Board’s approval, has undertaken a strategic review of the Company’s operations and has recommended to the Board certain strategic alternatives for optimizing the Company’s asset portfolio, including divestiture of the current asset portfolio in favor of new lines of business.

The Company had revenue of $213 for the year ended December 31, 2015, as compared to $852 for the year ended December 31, 2014. The decrease in revenue is because as of April 1, 2015, management decided to abandon its claim to any future income from the single solar photovoltaic system installed by the Company in a residential home. Pursuant to a residential power plan solar customer agreement with the owner of the residence, the Company had been entitled to approximately $71 per month ($213 per three month period). As of April 1, 2015, management decided to abandon efforts to collect past or future amounts due under the solar power customer agreement and to write off the carrying cost of the associated fixed asset.
Operating expenses decreased by $31,828, from $421,110 for the year ended December 31, 2014 to $389,282 for the year ended December 31, 2015. Primarily, the difference is attributable to a decrease in stock based expense of approximately $50,000 partially offset by an increase in research and development expenses of approximately $19,0000.
As a result of the foregoing, we generated an operating loss of $389,069 for year ended December 31, 2015 as compared to an operating loss of $420,258 for the year ended December 31, 2014, a change of $31,189.
The Company had other income of $31,092 for the year ended December 31, 2015, as compared to $123,687 for the year ended December 31, 2014. The decrease in other income is attributable the impairment on marketable securities recorded in 2015 and sale of marketable securities in the year ended 2014 but no such sale in the year ended 2015.
As a result of the foregoing, we generated a net loss of $357,977 for the year ended December 31, 2015 as compared to a net loss of $296,571 for the year ended December 31, 2014, a change of $61,406.

The Company had $640,020 and $399,650 of cash used by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Operating cash flow consisted of a net loss of $357,977, non-cash amounts totaling a loss of $292,058, which primarily consisted of outflows of $358,807 for net expenses of $289,922 incurred on behalf of a related party, debt forgiven of $41,307, and inflows from impairment of equipment for $20,625, impairment of marketable securities of $10,215, and stock-based compensation of $5,000 and change in assets and liabilities totaling a gain of $154,699, which primarily consisted of an increase in restricted cash of $72,342 and increase in account payable of $84,748. During the year ended 2014, the Company’s operating cash flows consisted of a net loss of $296,571, non-cash amounts totaling a loss of $96,668, which primarily consisted of outflows of $48,216 for net expenses incurred on behalf of a related party, gain on sale of marketable securities of $114,251, and stock-based compensation of $55,010 and change in assets and liabilities totaling a gain of $6,411, which primarily consisted of an increase in due from related parties of $6,115.
The Company used $0 and $9,648 of cash for investing activities during the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. During 2014, the Company had a purchase of equipment of $6,018 and patent application costs of $3,630.
Cash flows provided by financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 was $598,328 and $415,491, respectively. During 2015, financing cash flows were capital contributions provided by our former parent company of $497,156, proceeds from issuance of note payable of $100,000 and a bank overdraft of $1,172, compared to capital contributions provided by our former parent company of $250,165 and proceeds from the sale of marketable securities of $165,326, during 2014.
We have limited capital resources and operations since inception have been funded with the proceeds from equity financings and license fee arrangements. As of December 31, 2015, we had approximately $0 of cash and cash equivalents. We anticipate that our existing capital resources will not enable us to continue operations for the next twelve months. In order to continue as a going concern during such time, we will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Our plan to obtain such resources includes obtaining capital from management and significant stockholders sufficient to meet minimal operating expenses. However, we cannot provide any assurance that we will be successful in obtaining such funds. In addition, profitability will ultimately depend upon the level of revenues received from business operations and there is no assurance that we will attain profitability.
The audit report prepared by our independent registered public accounting firm relating to our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015 includes an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of December 31, 2015, we had no material off-balance sheet arrangements.
In the normal course of business, we may be confronted with issues or events that may result in a contingent liability. These generally relate to lawsuits, claims or the actions of various regulatory agencies. We consult with counsel and other appropriate experts to assess the claim. If, in our opinion, we have incurred a probable loss as set forth by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, an estimate is made of the loss and the appropriate accounting entries are reflected in our financial statements. After consultation with legal counsel, we do not anticipate that liabilities arising out of currently pending or threatened lawsuits and claims will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Going Concern
Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means that there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay for our expenses. This is because we have generated limited revenues and have operating losses since inception. There are no assurances that we will be able to obtain additional financing through either private placements, and/or bank financing or other loans necessary to support our working capital requirements. To the extent that funds generated from operations and any private placements, public offerings and/or bank financing are insufficient, we will have to raise additional working capital. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available, or if available, will be on terms acceptable to us.
Critical Accounting Estimates and New Accounting Pronouncements
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures in the financial statements. Management considers an accounting estimate to be critical if it requires assumptions to be made that were uncertain at the time the estimate was made, and changes in the estimate or different estimates that could have been selected could have a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition.
Long-lived Assets. Long-lived assets such as property, equipment and identifiable intangibles are reviewed for impairment whenever facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. When required impairment losses on assets to be held and used are recognized based on the fair value of the asset. The fair value is determined based on estimates of future cash flows, market value of similar assets, if available, or independent appraisals, if required. If the carrying amount of the long-lived asset is not recoverable from its undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between the carrying amount and fair value of the asset. When fair values are not available, the Company estimates fair value using the expected future cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk associated with the recovery of the assets. We recognized impairment losses of $20,625 for the year ended December 31, 2015.
For other accounting policy items, refer to note 3 of the audited financial statements, included in this Form 10-K.
Application of Significant Accounting Policies
Section 107 of the JOBS Act 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 take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period. Our financial statements may, therefore, not be comparable to those of companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
We have reviewed the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) accounting pronouncements and interpretations thereof that have effectiveness dates during the periods reported and in future periods. The Company has carefully considered the new pronouncements that alter previous generally accepted accounting principles and does not believe that any new or modified principles will have a material impact on the corporation’s reported financial position or operations in the near term. The applicability of any standard is subject to the formal review of our financial management and certain standards are under consideration.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Spiral Energy Tech, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Spiral Energy Tech, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related statements of operations and comprehensive loss, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the two years in the periods ended December 31, 2015. 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 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 audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 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 effectiveness of the company’s 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 the Company as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the results of its operations and comprehensive loss and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2015, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered losses from operations, which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 1. BUSINESS DESCRIPTION
Spiral Energy Tech, Inc. (“Spiral”, “our”, “us”, “we” or the “Company”) was incorporated on January 18, 2008 in the State of Nevada. On May 16, 2013, we filed a certificate of amendment to the Company’s amended and restated articles of incorporation to change our name to “Spiral Energy Tech., Inc.” from Solid Solar Energy, Inc.
Our primary business focus has been on developing and commercializing our proprietary SkyPorts drone support and Energy Demand Network (“EDEN”) technology and our XTRAX(R) remote monitoring system. Since our inception in 2008, we have devoted substantially all of our efforts and resources to design, research and development activities. We have had no product sales from inception through December 31, 2015. Our losses from operations have been funded primarily with the proceeds of equity and debt financings and proceeds from the sale of our XTRAX(R) patents to Endeavor, LLP (“Endeavor”).
As of December 31, 2015, we have no self-developed or licensed products available for sale. There can be no assurance that our technology will be commercially successful. In addition, we operate in an environment of rapid change in technology and are dependent upon the services of consultants and subcontractors.
On October 1, 2014, we entered into a Merger Agreement with Fuse Science, Inc. (“Fuse”) and Acquisition Sub. Upon the closing of the Merger, Acquisition Sub merged with and into Spiral, and Spiral, as the surviving entity, became a 51% majority-owned subsidiary of Fuse. As a result of the Merger, among other effects, at the effective time of the Merger, (i) 51% of Spiral’s shares of common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time (calculated on a pro rata basis among the shareholders of Spiral immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger) were automatically cancelled and retired and ceased to exist and certificates previously evidencing any such shares thereafter represented the right to receive an aggregate of 150,000,000 newly issued shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Fuse, or, at the election of any holder of Spiral common stock who, as a result of receiving shares of Fuse common stock in connection with the Merger would hold in excess of 4.9% of the issued and outstanding shares of Fuse common stock, shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Fuse; (ii) 49% of the Spiral shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time (calculated on a pro rata basis among the shareholders of Spiral immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger) remained outstanding and (iii) the shares of common stock of Merger Sub, par value $0.0001 per share, held by Fuse immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Fuse, were converted into the right to receive an aggregate of 7,723,892 shares of Spiral, which at the time of the Merger represented 51% of Spiral’s issued and outstanding common stock. Subsequent to June 30, 2015, Fuse delivered shares of Spiral to third parties as payment for various costs and expenses. As a result of these transfers, as of the date hereof, Fuse holds less than 7.5% of Spiral’s current outstanding shares.
On January 29, 2016, Ezra Green resigned as our CEO and member of our board of directors (the “Board”). Concurrently with the resignation of Ezra Green, the Board appointed Elliot Maza to serve as our new Chief Executive Officer and as a member of the Board. In addition, Mr. Maza will continue to serve as our Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Maza, with the Board’s approval, has undertaken a strategic review of the Company’s operations and upon conclusion of such review, will recommend to the Board strategic alternatives for optimizing the Company’s asset portfolio, including divestiture of the current asset portfolio in favor of new lines of business.
NOTE 2. GOING CONCERN
These financial statements are presented on the basis that we will continue as a going concern. The going concern concept contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. No adjustment has been made to the carrying amount and classification of our assets and the carrying amount of our liabilities based on the going concern uncertainty. We have considered ASU 2014-15 in consideration of reporting requirements of the going concern financial statements.
Since our inception in 2008, we have generated losses from operations and we anticipate that we will continue to generate significant losses from operations for the foreseeable future. As of December 31, 2015, we had $0 in cash or cash equivalents and a bank overdraft of $1,172. As of December 31, 2015, we had a capital deficiency of $98,853 and our accumulated deficit was $736,959. We had a loss from operations of $389,069 for the year ended December 31, 2015 and $420,258 for the year ended December 31, 2014. Our cash used in operations was $640,020 and $399,650 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
We anticipate that our existing capital resources will enable us to continue operations for the next several months. If we fail to raise additional capital or obtain substantial cash inflows from existing or potential partners within the next few months, we may be forced to cease operations. We cannot assure you that financing will be available in a timely manner, on favorable terms or at all.
NOTE 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation. The Financial Statements and related disclosures have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. The Financial Statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) of the United States.
Use of Estimates. The Company prepares its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") which require 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 reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Stock-Based Compensation. We recognize compensation expense for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718. For employee stock-based awards, we calculate the fair value of the award on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes method for stock options and the quoted price of our common stock for unrestricted shares; the expense is recognized over the service period for awards expected to vest. For non-employee stock-based awards, we calculate the fair value of the award on the date of grant in the same manner as employee awards, however, the awards are revalued at the end of each reporting period and the pro rata compensation expense is adjusted accordingly until such time the nonemployee award is fully vested, at which time the total compensation recognized to date equals the fair value of the stock-based award as calculated on the measurement date, which is the date at which the award recipient’s performance is complete. The estimation of stock-based awards that will ultimately vest requires judgment, and to the extent actual results or updated estimates differ from original estimates, such amounts are recorded as a cumulative adjustment in the period estimates are revised. We consider many factors when estimating expected forfeitures, including types of awards, employee class, and historical experience. Share-based expense totaled $5,000 and $55,010 for the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
We may issue restricted stock to consultants for various services. Cost for these transactions are measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is measurable more reliably measurable. The value of the common stock is measured at the earlier of (i) the date at which a firm commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached or (ii) the date at which the counterparty's performance is complete.
Research and Development Expenses. We follow ASC 730-10, “Research and Development,” and expense research and development costs when incurred. Accordingly, third-party research and development costs, including designing, prototyping and testing of product, are expensed when the contracted work has been performed or milestone results have been achieved. Indirect costs are allocated based on percentage usage related to the research and development. Research and development costs of $77,344 and $58,320 were incurred for the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Revenue Recognition. We recognize revenue when it is realized or realizable and estimable in accordance with ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition”. All revenue is recognized when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) the service or sale is completed; (iii) the price is fixed or determinable; and (iv) the ability to collect is reasonably assured.
Fair Value Measurements. We adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, which defines fair value as used in numerous accounting pronouncements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure of fair value measurements
The Company’s balance sheet includes certain financial instruments. The carrying amounts of current assets and current liabilities approximate their fair value because of the relatively short period of time between the origination of these instruments and their expected realization.
ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
|
·
|
Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities
|
|
·
|
Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
|
|
·
|
Level 3 - Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.
|
Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 2015.
Cash and Cash Equivalents. We consider all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The carrying value of those investments approximates their fair market value due to their short maturity and liquidity. Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and amounts on deposit with financial institutions, which amounts may at times exceed federally insured limits. We have not experienced any losses on such accounts and we do not believe we are exposed to any significant credit risk. As of December 31, 2015 we had Cash and cash equivalents of $0 and a bank overdraft of $1,172, and as of December 31, 2014 we had cash and cash equivalents of $41,692.
Restricted Cash. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalent items which are restricted as to withdrawal or usage. Restrictions may include legally restricted deposits held as compensating balances against borrowing arrangements, contracts entered into with others, or entity statements of intention with regard to particular deposits; however, time deposits and short-term certificates of deposit are not generally included in legally restricted deposits. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company's current restricted cash consisted of cash held in trust account of $72,342 and $0, respectively.
Marketable Securities. The Company’s marketable equity securities have been classified and accounted for as available-for-sale. Management determines the appropriate classification of its investments at the time of purchase and reevaluates the designations at each balance sheet date. We classify our marketable equity securities as either short-term or long-term based on the nature of each security and its availability for use in current operations. Our marketable equity securities are carried at fair value, with the unrealized gains or losses reported as a component of shareholder’s equity. Adjustments resulting from the change in fair value, included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in shareholder’s equity, were $6,210 and ($108,320) as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. We recognized an impairment of $10,215 in our marketable securities for the year ended December 31, 2015.
Long-Lived Assets Including Other Acquired Intangible Assets. Property and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over estimated useful lives, which is between 3 years for computer equipment and 5-20 years for production equipment. The carrying amount of all long-lived assets is evaluated periodically to determine if adjustment to the depreciation and amortization period or the unamortized balance is warranted. Based upon our most recent analysis, we recognized an impairment of $20,625 of property and equipment for the year ended December 31, 2015.
Long-lived assets such as property, equipment and identifiable intangibles are reviewed for impairment whenever facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. When required impairment losses on assets to be held and used are recognized based on the fair value of the asset. The fair value is determined based on estimates of future cash flows, market value of similar assets, if available, or independent appraisals, if required. If the carrying amount of the long-lived asset is not recoverable from its undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between the carrying amount and fair value of the asset. When fair values are not available, we estimate fair value by using the expected future cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk associated with the recovery of the assets. We recognized impairment losses of $20,625 for the year ended December 31, 2015.
Related Parties. We follow ASC 850, ”Related Party Disclosures,” for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.
Income Taxes. We account for income taxes under ASC 740 “Income Taxes.” Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period the enactment occurs. A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize tax assets through future operations. Deferred tax assets totaled $0 and $3,201 as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Earnings per Share. We compute basic and diluted earnings per share amounts in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share.” Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options and other commitments to issue common stock were exercised or equity awards vest resulting in the issuance of common stock that could share in the earnings of the Company. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company had no dilutive potential common shares.
Comprehensive Income (Loss). Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. The Company is required to record all components of comprehensive income (loss) in the financial statements in the period in which they are recognized. Net income (loss) and other comprehensive income (loss), net of their related tax effect, arrived at a comprehensive income (loss). Other comprehensive loss was $0 and $108,109 for the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
During the fourth quarter of 2014, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-08, which changes the criteria for determining which disposals can be presented as discontinued operations and modifies related disclosure requirements. The adoption of this guidance has not had a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
During the first quarter of 2015, the company adopted FASB’s guidance on reporting discontinued operations and disclosures of disposals of components of an entity. This standard raises the threshold for a disposal to qualify as a discontinued operation and requires new disclosures of both discontinued operations and certain other disposals that do not meet the definition of a discontinued operation. The adoption of this guidance has not had a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
During the fourth quarter of 2015, the Company adopted ASU 2015-03, which requires debt issuance costs to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the associated debt liability, and amortization of those costs should be reported as interest expense. This ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015, and early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The new guidance should be applied on a retrospective basis for each period presented in the balance sheet. The adoption of this guidance has not had a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In November 2015, the FASB issued (ASU) 2015-17, “Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes.” Currently deferred taxes for each tax jurisdiction are presented as a net current asset or liability and net noncurrent asset or liability on the balance sheet. To simplify the presentation, the new guidance requires that deferred tax liabilities and assets for all jurisdictions along with any related valuation allowances be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is permitted. The Company has adopted this guidance in the fourth quarter of the year ended December 31, 2015 on a retrospective basis. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows, and did not have any effect on prior periods due to the full valuation allowance against the Company’s net deferred tax assets.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Issued But Not Adopted as of December 31, 2015
In January 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-01, which amends the guidance in U.S. GAAP on the classification and measurement of financial instruments. Changes to the current guidance primarily affect the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. In addition, the ASU clarifies guidance related to the valuation allowance assessment when recognizing deferred tax assets resulting from unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities. The new standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and upon adoption, an entity should apply the amendments by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the balance sheet at the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. Early adoption is not permitted except for the provision to record fair value changes for financial liabilities under the fair value option resulting from instrument-specific credit risk in other comprehensive income. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.
In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16, “Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement –Period Adjustments.” Changes to the accounting for measurement-period adjustments relate to business combinations. Currently, an acquiring entity is required to retrospectively adjust the balance sheet amounts of the acquiree recognized at the acquisition date with a corresponding adjustment to goodwill as a result of changes made to the balance sheet amounts of the acquiree. The measurement period is the period after the acquisition date during which the acquirer may adjust the balance sheet amounts recognized for a business combination (generally up to one year from the date of acquisition). The changes eliminate the requirement to make such retrospective adjustments, and, instead require the acquiring entity to record these adjustments in the reporting period they are determined. The new standard is effective for both public and private companies for periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, "Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. This standard provides guidance about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is permitted. The Company expects to adopt this guidance on January 1, 2017. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have any impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE 6. NOTE PAYABLE
As described further in Note 12. Subsequent Events, on December 16, 2015, we received a subscription for 2,500,000 shares of our common stock, for $100,000 from one institutional investor. As of December 31, 2015, we failed to issue the shares. On February 12, 2016, the subscription was rescinded and the $100,000 deposit was mutually agreed to be treated as a short term loan and the balance of $72,342 in escrow account was shown as Restricted cash on the balance sheet. Accordingly, we have recorded the $100,000 loan amount as a Note Payable as of December 31, 2015. The Note Payable is -unsecured, non-interest bearing, and is due on demand.
NOTE 7. INCOME TAXES
As of December 31, 2015, the Company has a deferred tax asset, resulting from benefits of net operating loss carry forward generated from inception, which expire in varying amounts between 2028 and 2035. Management believes it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize deferred tax assets through future operations.
The provision for income taxes differs from the amounts which would be provided by applying the statutory federal income tax rate of 34% to the net income (loss) before provision for income taxes. As of December 31, 2015, there was approximately $121,700 in deferred tax assets, which were off-set by an equal valuation allowance.
The Company has not taken positions contrary to the Internal Revenue Code, however, the tax years of 2011 through 2015 remain subject to audit by the Internal Revenue Service.
As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company had a deferred tax asset of $0 and $3,201, respectively, attributable to the valuations (unrealized) of the marketable securities available for sale.
The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to the Company’s net deferred tax asset as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 are as follows:

NOTE 10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
In the ordinary course of business, we enter into agreements with third parties that include indemnification provisions which, in our judgment, are normal and customary for companies in our industry sector. These agreements are typically with business partners, clinical sites, and suppliers. Pursuant to these agreements, we generally agree to indemnify, hold harmless, and reimburse indemnified parties for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified parties with respect to our product candidates, use of such product candidates, or other actions taken or omitted by us. The maximum potential amount of future payments we could be required to make under these indemnification provisions is unlimited. We have not incurred material costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification provisions. As a result, the estimated fair value of liabilities relating to these provisions is minimal. Accordingly, we have no liabilities recorded for these provisions as of December 31, 2015 and 2014.
In the normal course of business, we may be confronted with issues or events that may result in a contingent liability. These generally relate to lawsuits, claims, environmental actions or the action of various regulatory agencies. If necessary, management consults with counsel and other appropriate experts to assess any matters that arise. If, in management’s opinion, we have incurred a probable loss as set forth by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, an estimate is made of the loss, and the appropriate accounting entries are reflected in our financial statements. We do not anticipate that liabilities arising out of currently pending or threatened lawsuits and claims will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
NOTE 11. RELATED PARTY CONSIDERATIONS
Some of the officers and directors of the Company are involved in other business activities and may, in the future, become involved in other business opportunities that become available. They may face a conflict in selecting between the Company and other business interests. We have not formulated a policy for the resolution of such conflicts.
We do not have employment contracts with our key employees, including the officers of the Company.
In December 2015, we issued 100,000 shares of common stock to Elliot Maza, our Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer, for services valued at $5,000.
In September 2014, we issued 1,000,000 shares of common stock to Ezra Green, our former Chief Executive Officer, for services valued at $52,200. During the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, Mr. Green, received cash and stock-based compensation in the amount of $0 and $193,700, respectively.
In September 2014, we issued 2,000,000 shares of common stock to Mr. Bhansali, a former officer of the Company, for services valued at $200.
During the year ended December 31, 2015, we received $497,156 from Fuse Science, Inc. (“Fuse”) and paid $358,808 of expenses on behalf of Fuse, which as of June 30, 2015, owned 7,723,892 (51%) of Spiral shares. During the three months ended September 30, 2015, Fuse sold 6,600,000 of their Spiral shares in private transactions, which reduced their ownership to 7.4%. Of these shares, 6,200,000 were sold for the benefit of Spiral and recorded as a contribution to capital of $25,595.
NOTE 12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In accordance with authoritative guidance, we have evaluated any events or transactions occurring after December 31, 2015, the balance sheet date, through the date of filing of this report and note that there have been no such events or transactions that would require recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2015, except as disclosed below.
On December 16, 2015, we received a subscription for 2,500,000 shares of our common stock, for $100,000 from one institutional investor (the “Investor”). As of December 31, 2015, we failed to issue the shares. On February 12, 2016, the subscription was rescinded and the $100,000 deposit was mutually agreed to be treated as a short term loan (the “Loan”). On February 16, 2016, we agreed with the Investor to exchange 1,342,100 shares of common stock held by the Investor for 1.1 million shares of Series A Preferred Stock; extinguish the $100,000 Loan for 400,000 shares of Series B-2 Preferred Stock ($0.25 per share); and issue to the Investor an additional 200,000 shares of Series B-2 Preferred Stock) for $50,000 upon filing of the Certificate of Designation therefor and completion of a recapitalization of the Company, which is expected to occur on or prior to February 29, 2016.
On February 17, 2016, pursuant to Article 3.03 of our Articles of Incorporation, our Board of Directors voted to designate a class of preferred stock entitled Series A Preferred Stock, consisting of up to five million (5,000,000) shares, par value $0.0001. With respect to rights on liquidation, winding up and dissolution, the Series A Preferred Stock ranks pari passu to the class of common stock. Shares of Series A Preferred Stock have no dividend rights except as may be declared by the Board in its sole and absolute discretion, out of funds legally available for that purpose. Shares of Series A Preferred Stock are convertible, at the option of the holder, into shares of our common stock on a one (1) for one (1) basis, subject to a limitation that the Company shall not effect any conversion of any preferred shares held by a holder to the extent that such holder or any of its affiliates would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of our common stock following the conversion. A holder may increase this limitation to 9.99% upon 60 days written notice to the Company. All outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be automatically converted to shares of common stock thirty (30) days after the closing of a contemplated acquisition and a minimum private offering of our Series B-2 Preferred Stock. Holders of Series A Preferred Stock have the right to vote as-if-converted to common stock all matters submitted to a vote of holders of the Company’s common stock.
Also on February 17, 2016 and pursuant to Article 3.03 of our Articles of Incorporation, our Board of Directors voted to designate a class of preferred stock entitled Series B-2 Preferred Stock, consisting of up to six million (6,000,000) shares, par value $0.0001, with a stated value of $0.25 per share. With respect to rights on liquidation, winding up and dissolution, holders of Series B-2 Preferred Stock will be paid in cash in full, before any distribution is made to any holder of common or other classes of capital stock, an amount of $0.25 per share. Shares of Series B-2 Preferred Stock have no dividend rights except as may be declared by the Board in its sole and absolute discretion, out of funds legally available for that purpose. Shares of Series B-2 Preferred Stock are convertible, at the option of the holder, into shares of our common stock on a one (1) for one (1) basis. Holders of Series B-2 Preferred Stock have the right to vote as-if-converted to common stock all matters submitted to a vote of holders of the Company’s common stock.
None.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a – 15(e) and 15d – 15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this annual report. He has concluded that, based on such evaluation, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, as further described below.
(b) Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Overview
Internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) refers to the process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting.
Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.
Management has used the framework set forth in the report entitled “Internal Control — Integrated Framework” published by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (“COSO”) of the Treadway Commission to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. As a result of the material weaknesses described below, management has concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2015.
Management’s Assessment
Management has determined that, as of the December 31, 2015 measurement date, there were material weaknesses in both the design and effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Management has assessed these deficiencies and has determined that there were four general categories of material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting. As a result of our assessment that material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting existed as of December 31, 2015, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2015. A material weakness in internal controls is a deficiency in internal control, or combination of control deficiencies, that adversely affects the our ability to initiate, authorize, record, process, or report external financial data reliably in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America such that there is more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected. In the course of making our assessment of the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting, we identified at least two material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, (1) we lack a sufficient number of employees to properly segregate duties and provide adequate review of the preparation of the financial statements and (2) we lack sufficient independent directors on our Board of Directors to maintain Audit and other committees consistent with proper corporate governance standards. We have limited financial resources and only one employee. The lack of personnel is a weakness because it could lead to improper classification of items and other failures to make the entries and adjustments necessary to comply with U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, management’s assessment is that the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of December 31, 2015.
This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
No changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting have come to management’s attention during the Company’s last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
None.
PART III
Directors and Executive Officers
The following table sets forth the name, age and position of our directors, executive officers and significant employees as of the filing date of this report on Form 10-K. All of our directors hold office until they resign or are removed from office in accordance with out bylaws.
| Name | Age | Title | ||
| Elliot M. Maza, J.D., C.P.A. | 60 | Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Director |
On January 29, 2016, Ezra Green resigned as our CEO and member of our board of directors.
Elliot Maza, JD, CPA. Mr. Maza was appointed to serve as our new Chief Executive Officer and as a member of our Board of Directors on January 29, 2016. He has served as our Consulting Chief Financial Officer since August 5, 2015. Currently, Mr. Maza serves as Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of Intellect Neurosciences, Inc. a biotechnology company focused on developing therapeutics for neurological diseases. He has been employed in various management positions at Intellect Neurosciences, Inc. since May 2006. Mr. Maza was the Chief Executive Officer and CFO of Biozone Pharmaceuticals, Inc. from August 2011 until January 2014. From December 2003 to May 2006 Mr. Maza was Chief Financial Officer of Emisphere Technologies, Inc., a publicly held biopharmaceutical company specializing in oral drug delivery. He was a partner at Ernst and Young LLP from March 1999 to December 2003 and served as a Vice President at Goldman Sachs, Inc., JP Morgan Securities, Inc. and Bankers Trust Securities, Inc. at various times during March 1991 to March 1999. Mr. Maza was an investment banking associate at Goldman Sachs, Inc. from April 1989 to March 1991. Mr. Maza practiced law at Sullivan and Cromwell in New York from September 1985 to April 1989.
Conflicts of Interest
Certain potential conflicts of interest are inherent in the relationships between the Company’s officers and directors and the Company.
From time to time, one or more of the Company’s affiliates may form or hold an ownership interest in and/or manage other businesses both related and unrelated to the type of business that the Company own and operate. These persons expect to continue to form, hold an ownership interest in and/or manage additional other businesses which may compete with the Company’s business with respect to operations, including financing and marketing, management time and services and potential customers. These activities may give rise to conflicts between or among the interests of us and other businesses with which the Company’s affiliates are associated. The Company’s affiliates are in no way prohibited from undertaking such activities, and neither the Company nor the Company’s shareholders will have any right to require participation in such other activities.
Further, because we intend to transact business with some of the Company’s officers, directors and affiliates, as well as with firms in which some of the Company’s officers, directors or affiliates have a material interest, potential conflicts may arise between the respective interests of us and these related persons or entities. The Company believes that such transactions will be effected on terms at least as favorable to us as those available from unrelated third parties.
With respect to transactions involving real or apparent conflicts of interest, we have adopted policies and procedures which require that: (i) the fact of the relationship or interest giving rise to the potential conflict be disclosed or known to the directors who authorize or approve the transaction prior to such authorization or approval, (ii) the transaction be approved by a majority of our disinterested outside directors, and (iii) the transaction be fair and reasonable to us at the time it is authorized or approved by our directors.
Our policies and procedures regarding transactions involving potential conflicts of interest are not in writing. We understand that it will be difficult to enforce our policies and procedures and will rely and trust our officers and directors to follow our policies and procedures. We will implement our policies and procedures by requiring the officer or director who is not in compliance with our policies and procedures to remove himself and the other officers and directors will decide how to implement the policies and procedures, accordingly.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
To the Company’s knowledge, during the past ten (10) years, none of the Company’s directors, executive officers, promoters, control persons, or nominees has been:
|
|
·
|
the subject of any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time;
|
|
|
·
|
convicted in a criminal proceeding or is subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses);
|
|
|
·
|
subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; or
|
|
|
·
|
found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law
|
Director Independence
Our Board of Directors has determined none of our directors qualify as “independent” as the term is used in Item 407 of Regulation S-K as promulgated by the SEC and in the listing standards of The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. – Marketplace Rule 4200.
Meetings and Committees of the Board of Directors
Our Board of Directors held no formal meetings during the most recently completed fiscal year. All proceedings of the Board of Directors were conducted by resolutions that were consented to in writing by all the directors and filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the directors. Such resolutions consented to in writing by the directors entitled to vote on that resolution at a meeting of the directors are, according to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and our bylaws, as valid and effective as if they had been passed at a meeting of the Board of Directors duly called and held.
Committees
Our business, property and affairs are managed by or under the direction of the Board of Directors. Members of the Board of Directors are kept informed of our business through discussion with the chief executive and financial officers and other officers, by reviewing materials provided to them and by participating at meetings of the board and its committees. We presently do not have any committees of our Board of Directors; however, our Board of Directors intends to establish various committees at some point in the near future.
Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our directors and executive officers and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of change in ownership of common stock and other equity securities of our company. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent stockholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.
Based solely upon a review of Forms 3 and 4 and amendments thereto furnished to us under Rule 16a-3(e) during the year ended December 31, 2015, and Forms 5 and amendments thereto furnished to us with respect to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, we believe that during the year ended December 31, 2015, our executive officers, directors and all persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities have complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements.

Our Articles of Incorporation contain indemnification provisions, which provide, among other things that we will indemnify each director, under certain circumstances, for defense expenses, damages, judgments, fines and settlements incurred by the director in connection with actions or proceedings to which he or she may be a party as a result of his or her position as a member of our Board, and otherwise to the full extent permitted under our bylaws and state law.
Code of Ethics
Our Board has adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer as well as to our other senior management and senior financial staff. Our Code of Ethics complies with the requirements imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, and the rules and regulations issued thereunder for codes of ethics applicable to such officers.

These services may include audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services. Pre-approval is generally provided for up to one year and any pre-approval is detailed as to the particular service or category of services and is generally subject to a specific budget. The independent auditors and management are required to periodically report to our Board of Directors regarding the extent of services provided by the independent auditors in accordance with this pre-approval, and the fees for the services performed to date. The Board of Directors may also pre-approve particular services on a case-by-case basis.
