Notes to Condensed Financial Statements

As of March 31, 2017 (unaudited)

 

Note 1 – Nature of Operations

 

The Company was incorporated on December 31, 2013 (Date of Inception) under the laws of the State of Nevada, as Artesanias Corp. (the “Company”). On June 12, 2015, the Board of Directors of the Company changed the name from Artesanias Corp. to SocialPlay USA, Inc. to reflect the business focus of the Company. The Company plans to develop a business that provides marketing, monetization, and support services for the companies in gaming and mobile application markets. On January 10, 2017, the former majority shareholder sold 7,082,000 shares of common stock to the Company’s current President and CEO, Robert Rosner, in a private transaction. As result of this transaction, a change in control of the company occurred.

 

The Company has limited operations and is considered to be in the development stage.

 

Note 2 – Going Concern

 

The Company’s unaudited interim condensed financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles 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. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and allow it to continue as a going concern. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $2,007,147 and a working capital deficit of $288,236 as of March 31, 2017. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations. In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. The Company is contemplating conducting an offering of its debt or equity securities to obtain additional operating capital. The Company is dependent upon its ability, and will continue to attempt, to secure equity and/or debt financing. There are no assurances that the Company will be successful and without sufficient financing it would be unlikely for the Company to continue as a going concern.

 

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.

 

Note 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the SEC and are expressed in US dollars. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation. Interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017 or for any other interim period. The unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of the Company and the notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016.

As of March 31, 2017 (unaudited)

 

Note 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the interim condensed financial statements in conformity with US GAAP 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 periods. Areas involving significant estimates and assumptions include valuation of derivatives, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, accruals and going concern assessment.  These estimates are reviewed periodically, and, as adjustments become necessary, they are reported in earnings in the period in which they become known. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

In April 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-08, "Presentation of Financial Statements and Property, Plant, and Equipment - Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity'', which revises what qualifies as a discontinued operation, changes the criteria for determining which disposals can be presented as discontinued operations and modifies related disclosure requirements. This ASU will be effective for the Company for applicable transactions occurring after October 1, 2016. The Company will prospectively apply the guidance to applicable transactions and does not expect adoption to have a material impact on the financial statements.

 

On May 28, 2015, the FASB issued a new financial accounting standard on revenue from contracts with customers, ASU 2015-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”. The standard outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance. In July 2016, the FASB voted to approve a one-year deferral of the effective date of ASU 2015-09, which will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 and may be applied on a full retrospective or modified retrospective approach. This ASU will have no impact on the Company until it begins to generate revenue.

 

In June 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ASU 2015-10, “Development Stage Entities”. The amendments in this update remove the definition of a development stage entity from the Master Glossary of the ASC thereby removing the financial reporting distinction between development stage entities and other reporting entities from U.S. GAAP.  In addition, the amendments eliminate the requirements for development stage entities to (1) present inception-to-date information in the statements of income, cash flows, and shareholder equity, (2) label the financial statements as those of a development stage entity, (3) disclose a description of the development stage activities in which the entity is engaged, and (4) disclose in the first year in which the entity is no longer a development stage entity that in prior years it had’ been in the development stage. The amendments in this update are applied retrospectively.

 

On August 27, 2015, the FASB issued a new financial accounting standard on going concern, ASU 2015-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern”. The standard provides guidance about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about the organization’s ability to continue as a going concern. The amendments apply to all companies and are effective in annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, with early application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standard on its interim condensed financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards (continued)

 

On April 7, 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-03, “Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs”. The amendments in this ASU require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts and the accounting for debt issue costs under IFRS. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this ASU. The amendments apply to all companies and are effective for public business entities in annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standard on its financial statements.  

 

Note 4 – Licensing Fees

 

Pursuant to Exclusive License Agreement dated May 21, 2015 with a related party, the Company acquired an exclusive license to develop, market and sell products and services based upon any and all intellectual property. The initial term of this Agreement was five years. This Agreement may be renewed for an additional five year term upon written notice to be given by the Company no later than thirty days prior to the expiration of the initial term. On May 21, 2015, in consideration for the license granted hereunder, the Company issued 1,000,000 (200,000 after reverse split) shares of common stock. In addition, the Company shall issue 1,000,000 (200,000 after reverse split) shares of common stock on or before each anniversary of this Agreement for so long as it shall remain in effect. The Company also agreed to make payments totaling $120,000 through an agreed payment schedule.

 

As technological feasibility has not been achieved, the Company recognizes expense at the end of each anniversary (triggering event) for the shares to be issued, the fair value of which to be determined based on the market price of the share anniversary day as further explained in note 7 to the financial statements. The Company has issued 400,000 common shares (including 200,000 to be issued) and recorded related license fee expense up to December 31, 2016. The Company will record expense relating to 200,000 shares to be issued on May 21, 2017 (Triggering event) during the quarter ending June 30, 2017.

 

 Note 5 – Convertible Promissory Notes and Derivative Liabilities

 

The outstanding convertible promissory notes as at March 31, 2017 represent obligations of the Company to CMGT Inc. (CMGT).

 

On January 11, 2016, the Company consolidated all of its obligations to CMGT under a single Convertible Promissory Note due June 1, 2018 (the “Note”) and recognized gain on extinguishment of debt amounting to $11,462. The Note bears interest at a rate of ten percent (10%) per year, with all principal and interest due on or before June 1, 2018. Under the Note, the Company is obligated to pay quarterly payments of interest only commencing March 31, 2016. The Company may prepay the Note in whole or in part without penalty. The Note is convertible at a price equal to sixty percent (60%) of the market price for its common stock, which is defined as the average of the lowest three closing bid prices for the common stock in the ten trading days preceding the conversion. In addition, CMGT’s right to convert is limited such that no conversion can be made which would result in CMGT or its affiliates owning more than 4.99% of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company following the conversion.

As of March 31, 2017 (unaudited) 

 

Note 5 – Convertible Promissory Notes and Derivative Liabilities (continued)

 

On February 17, 2017, the Company entered into a First Amendment to Convertible Promissory Note with CMGT, Inc. Under the Amendment, the Company has modified the conversion feature of the Note so that the conversion price for all amounts owing thereunder is now $0.10 per share of common stock. In addition, the Amendment waives the Company’s prior defaults in payment of interest under the Note in the amount of $44,289, and adds such sum to the principal balance of the Note. The Company is now required to make quarterly interest payments commencing September 30, 2017. All other terms of the original Note remain in full force and effect.

 

The embedded conversion features and reset feature in the notes were accounted for as a derivative liability based on FASB guidance. In connection with the issuance of convertible promissory notes, the Company may sell options or warrants to purchase Company’s common stock. In certain circumstances, these options or warrants may be classified as derivative liabilities, rather than as equity. Additionally, the debt or equity instruments may contain embedded derivative instruments, such as embedded derivative features which in certain circumstances may be required to be bifurcated from the associated host instrument and accounted for separately as a derivative instrument liability. The Company's derivative instrument liabilities are re-valued at amendment and at the end of each reporting period, with changes in the fair value of the derivative liability recorded as charges or credits to income in the period in which the changes occur. For options, warrants and bifurcated embedded derivative features that are accounted for as derivative instrument liabilities, the Company estimates fair value using either quoted market prices of financial instruments with similar characteristics or other valuation techniques. The valuation techniques require assumptions related to the remaining term of the instruments and risk-free rates of return, our current common stock price and expected dividend yield, and the expected volatility of our common stock price over the life of the option.

 

The movement in convertible notes principal amount, accreted value of notes and derivative liabilities are detailed below:

Certain statements, other than purely historical information, including estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives, and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based, are “forward-looking statements.” These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believes,” “project,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse affect on our operations and future prospects on a consolidated basis include, but are not limited to: changes in economic conditions, legislative/regulatory changes, availability of capital, interest rates, competition, and generally accepted accounting principles. These risks and uncertainties should also be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements.

 

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Company Overview

 

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 31, 2013 as Artesanias Corp.  Our original business plan involved distribution of the arts and crafts of the indigenous tribes of Panama via the Internet. On January 20, 2015, we underwent a change in control when our former majority shareholder and sole officer, Jose Soto, sold his controlling interest and resigned after appointing our current CEO and Director, Chitan Mistry, and our former CFO and Director, Lucie Lettelier. Following the change in control, we are no longer pursuing our original business plan. On June 12, 2015, the Board of Directors of the Company changed the name from Artesanias Corp. to SocialPlay USA, Inc. to reflect the business focus of the Company.

 

On April 27, 2015, we entered into an Exclusive License Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Social Play, Inc. (“Social Play”). Under the Agreement, we have been granted the exclusive rights within the U.S. and Canada to develop, market and sell products and services based upon Social Play’s patent-pending “SP Cloud Goods” system. SP Cloud Goods is cloud-based game hosting and management system where video game developers can add and remove virtual goods from the game, manage players, manage virtual store pricing, and view vital game and player statistics.  Using this system, game developers can affect their games in real-time, without the need to rebuild or republish the game. The SP Cloud Goods intellectual property also includes a system for game developers to collect payments for virtual goods sold to players in their games, as well as a marketplace component that will allow advertisers and game developers to choose where, when, and how advertisements are placed in games. The system will also facilitate the transfer of funds from advertisers to game developers.

 

The Agreement runs for an initial term of five (5) years, with an optional extension for an additional five years. In consideration for the license, we agreed to issue Social Play 1,000,000 (200,000 after reverse split) shares of common stock and an additional 1,000,000 (200,000 after reverse split) shares on each anniversary of the Agreement for so long as it is in effect. Further, we agreed to make cash payments to Social Play in the total amount of $120,000, payable in monthly payments of not less than $20,000 until paid in full.

 

On August 22, 2016, the board of directors appointed Robert Rosner as our new President, CEO, CFO and Director. Following these appointments, the board accepted the resignation of Chitan Mistry as our former sole officer and director.

 

Letter of Intent with Spot and Play, Inc.

On March 11, 2017, we entered into a binding Letter of Intent (the “LOI”) with Spot and Play, Inc. (“Spot and Play”) and its sole shareholder, Karthik Mani. Spot and Play is developing the “Spot and Pay” application, which provides a way to centralize payment or donate money using a unique business code in form of a visual code at location, or using business name if remote. The LOI contemplates our acquisition of up to 100% of Spot and Play for a total purchase price of $1,000,000. Our initial investment will consist of $300,000 in cash, to be paid for a 30% ownership interest in Spot and Play. These funds are to be paid as follows: (i) $50,000 to be paid upon execution of the LOI, (ii) an additional $100,000 to be paid upon certain development milestones for Spot and Play’s business, and no later than 15 days after the execution of a definitive agreement, and (iii) the final $150,000 upon Spot and Play’s achievement of certain additional milestones, and no later than 75 days after the execution of a definitive agreement. Further, we will be granted the exclusive option to purchase the remaining 70% of Spot and Play to be paid as follows: (i) issuance of shares of our common stock valued at $200,000, no later than 150 days from execution of a definitive agreement, in order to purchase an additional 19% of Spot and Play, and (ii) issuance of shares of our common stock valued at $500,000, no later than 180 days from execution of a definitive agreement, in order to purchase the remaining 51% of Spot and Play. Shares issued as purchase consideration will be valued based on the five-day average trading price of our common stock immediately preceding their issuance. Shares to be issued as consideration for our acquisition of Spot and Play will be subject to a one (1) year lock-up, with certain leak-out restrictions on their re-sale thereafter. Upon our acquisition of 100% of the ownership interests in Spot and Play, Mr. Mani will be granted a royalty based on the gross profits of Spot and Play, with specific royalty terms to be negotiated. The transaction contemplated by the LOI is subject to final negotiation of a definitive agreement, requisite corporate approvals, and other conditions. Under the LOI, we have the exclusive rights, through March 31, 2017, to negotiate and conclude an acquisition agreement for Spot and Play. 

Significant Equipment

 

We do not intend to purchase any significant equipment for the next twelve months.

At March 31, 2017 we had $306,606 of accounts payable, accrued liabilities and payable to related parties as compared to $322,164 as at December 31, 2016.

 Convertible promissory notes and derivative liabilities

 

During the previous year, we entered into agreements with CMGT and issued them convertible promissory notes. As of March 31, 2017, the total principal due was $421,141 ($351,397 as of December 31, 2016) and interest accrued on these notes as at March 31, 2017 amounted to $450 ($28,497 as at December 31, 2016).

 

On January 11, 2016, the Company consolidated all of its obligations to CMGT under a single Convertible Promissory Note due June 1, 2018. These amounts were accordingly reclassified to long-term liabilities.

 

On February 17, 2017, the Company entered into a First Amendment to Convertible Promissory Note with CMGT, Inc. Under the Amendment, the Company has modified the conversion feature of the Note so that the conversion price for all amounts owing thereunder is now $0.10 per share of common stock. In addition, the Amendment waives the Company’s prior defaults in payment of interest under the Note in the amount of $32,744, and adds such sum to the principal balance of the Note. The Company is now required to make quarterly interest payments commencing September 30, 2017. On April 28, 2017, we entered into a Second Amendment to the CMGT Note to remove certain anti-dilution features of the Note. All other terms of the original Note remain in full force and effect.

 

Statement of Operations - For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 respectively:

 

Expenses

 

Three months ended March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016

 

We have not earned any revenues since our inception. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we incurred operating expenses of $54,192, which consisted of consulting fees for investor relations of $30,629, legal and professional fees of $9,595, transfer agent fees of $3,590, and other expenses of $10,378. We also incurred accretion expense of $18,228, day-1 derivative losses of $13,486, interest and bank charges of $8,489, and a loss on the change in fair value of derivatives of $132,387. We had a net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2017 of $343,485. By comparison, during the three months ended March 31, 2016, we had net loss of $154,065. Our expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2016 mainly consisted of directors fees and other charges of $7,500, , consulting fees in connection with investor relations of $135,499, legal and professional fees of $13,063, transfer agent fees of $1,490, and other expenses of $145. We also incurred accretion expense of $14,056, interest and bank charges of $5,872 and recorded a gain on extinguishment of debt in the amount of $11,462 and a gain on the change in fair value of derivatives of $12,098.

 

Our expenses and net loss increased for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 as compared to the same period last year primarily due to increased expenses for investor relations consulting fees. We anticipate our operating expenses will increase as we move toward developing more active operations in our current line of business.

 

Our expenses and net loss decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2017 as compared to the same period last year primarily due to decrease in consulting fees for investor relations, the recorded a gain on extinguishment of debt and the gain on the change in fair value of derivatives. We anticipate our operating expenses will increase as we move toward developing more active operations in our current line of business.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of March 31, 2017, we had cash of $7,991. Our current liabilities as of March 31, 2017 were $306,606. Thus, we had a working capital deficit of $288,236, as of March 31, 2017.

 

Cash Used in Operating Activities.

 

Net cash used in operating activities was of $31,874 for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 as compared to $19,637 for the quarter ended March 31, 2016.

 

 

 

Cash Flows from Financing Activities.

 

During the quarter ended March 31, 2017, the Company raised $37,000 from convertible promissory notes as compared to $19,950 during the previous quarter ended March 31, 2016.

 

Going Concern

 

As discussed in the notes to our financial statements, we have no established source of revenue.  This has raised substantial doubt for our auditors about our ability to continue as a going concern.  Without realization of additional capital, it would be unlikely for us to continue as a going concern.

 

Our activities to date have been supported by debt and equity financing.  Management continues to seek funding from its shareholders and other qualified investors. 

 

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of March 31, 2017, there were no off balance sheet arrangements.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

In December 2001, the SEC requested that all registrants list their most “critical accounting polices” in the Management Discussion and Analysis. The SEC indicated that a “critical accounting policy” is one which is both important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results, and requires management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgements, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Currently, we do not believe that any accounting policies fit this definition.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

Recently issued accounting pronouncements have been disclosed in note 3 to the interim condensed financial statements.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

A smaller reporting company is not required to provide the information required by this Item.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

 

We recently evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as required by paragraph (b) of Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of the end of the period covered by this report, being March 31, 2017.  This evaluation was conducted with the participation of our principal executive officer and our principal accounting officer.

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that material information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that the information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We performed an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report.

  

Based on their evaluation, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in giving us reasonable assurance that the information we are required to disclose in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive and Principal Financial Officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. This conclusion was based on the existence of significant deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting mainly due to lack of resources and number of employees.

 

We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

 

Management Report on internal control over financial reporting.

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting is a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Internal control over financial reporting includes maintaining records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions; providing reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of our financial statements; providing reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures of our assets are made in accordance with management authorization; and providing reasonable assurance that unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements would be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting is not intended to provide absolute assurance that a misstatement of our financial statements would be prevented or detected.

 

Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and identified significant deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting.

 

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over the financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. 

 

A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those responsible for oversight of our financial reporting.  We not believe that we have sufficient documentation with our existing financial processes, risk assessment and internal controls.  We plan to work closely with financial advisors to document the existing financial processes, risk assessment and internal controls systematically as soon as resources are available. To address the need for more effective internal controls, management has plans to improve the existing controls and implement new controls appropriate to a business of its size and scale as our financial position and capital availability improves.  

 

Although we have not identified any material weaknesses with our financial reporting or any other significant deficiencies with our internal controls, no assurances can be given that there are no such material weaknesses or significant deficiencies existing.  

 

Changes in internal control over financial reporting.

 

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarters and have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls over financial reporting.

Designation of Series A Preferred Stock

On March 15, 2017, our board of directors designated a new class of Series A Preferred Stock. Our class of Series A Preferred Stock consists of 10,000,000 shares, par value $0.001 per share. Series A Preferred stock has no stated value, ranks pari passu with our common stock upon liquidation, and has no special dividend rights.
