Overview

We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Wyoming on August 22, 2016 as BioLabMart Inc. and changed our name to Qrons Inc. on August 8, 2017.

We are an innovative biotechnology company dedicated to developing biotech products, treatments and technologies that create a platform to combat neuronal diseases an enormous social and economic burden on society. We seek to engage in strategic arrangements with companies and institutions that are developing breakthrough technologies in the fields of artificial intelligence (“AI”), machine learning (“ML”), molecular biology, stem cells and tissue engineering, for deployment in the fight against neuronal diseases. Our search is focused on researchers based in Israel, a country which is world-renowned for biotech innovations.

To date, the Company has collaborated with universities and scientists in the fields of regenerative medicine, tissue engineering and 3D printable hydrogels to develop a treatment that integrates proprietary, engineered mesenchymal stem cells (“MSCs”), 3D printable implant, smart materials and a novel delivery system and has two product candidates for treating penetrating and non-penetrating (concussion-like) TBIs, both integrating proprietary, anti-brain inflammation synthetic hydrogel and modified MSCs. QS100TM is an injury specific, 3D printable, implantable MSCs-synthetic hydrogel, to treat penetrating brain injuries and QS200TM is an injectable MSCs-synthetic hydrogel for the treatment of diffused injuries commonly referred to as concussions.

Under an intellectual property license agreement (the “Intellectual Property Agreement”) with the Trustees of Dartmouth College (“Dartmouth”) to develop innovative 3D printable, biocompatible advanced materials, Dartmouth granted the Company an exclusive worldwide, royalty bearing license for 3D printable materials in the field of human and animal health and certain additional patent rights to use and commercialize licensed products and services.

The Company has relied primarily on its two co-founders, Jonah Meer, Chief Executive Officer, and Ido Merfeld, President, who are its sole directors, to manage its day-to-day business. The Company currently outsources professional services to third parties in an effort to maintain lower operational costs.

Messrs. Meer and Merfeld, as the holders of the Company's issued and outstanding shares of the Company's Class A Preferred Stock, collectively have 66 2/3% of the voting rights of the Company. Acting together, they will be able to influence the outcome of all corporate actions requiring approval of our stockholders.

The Company's common stock has traded on the OTCQB Venture Market since August 12, 2019 under the symbol "QRON".

Agreements with Dartmouth

On October 2, 2019, the Company entered into the Intellectual Property Agreement pursuant to which Dartmouth granted the Company an exclusive world-wide license under the patent application entitled “Mechanically Interlocked Molecules-based Materials for 3D Printing” in the field of human and animal health and certain additional patent rights to use and commercialize licensed products and services. The license grant includes the right of the Company to sublicense to third parties subject to the terms of the Agreement.

The Agreement provides for : (i) a $25,000 license issue fee; (ii) an annual license maintenance fee of $25,000, until the first commercial sale of a licensed product or service; (iii) an earned royalty of 2% of net sales of licensed products and services by the Company or a sublicensee; (iv) 15% of consideration received by the Company under a sublicense; and (v) beginning in the first calendar year after the first commercial sale, an annual minimum royalty payment of $500,000, $1,000,000 in the second calendar year, and $2,000,000 in the third calendar year and each year thereafter. The Company will also reimburse Dartmouth for all patent preparation, filing, maintenance and defense costs.

Under the Agreement, the Company must diligently proceed with the development, manufacture and sale of licensed products and licensed services, including funding at least $1,000,000 of research in each calendar year beginning in 2019 and ending with the first commercial sale of a licensed product; filing an IND/BLA (or equivalent) with the FDA or a comparable European regulatory agency before the four-year anniversary and make the first commercial sale of a licensed product before the twelve-year anniversary of the effective date of the Agreement and achieve annual net sales of at least $50,000,000 by 2033. If the Company fails to perform any of these obligations, Dartmouth has the option to terminate the Agreement or change the exclusive license to a nonexclusive license.

Failure to timely make any payment due under the Agreement will result in interest charges to the Company of the lower of 10% per year or the maximum amount of interest allowable by applicable law.

The Agreement may be terminated by Dartmouth if the Company is in material breach of the Agreement which is not cured after 30 days of notice thereof or if the Company becomes insolvent. Dartmouth may terminate the Agreement if the Company challenges a Dartmouth patent or does not terminate a sublicensee that challenges a Dartmouth patent, except in response to a valid court or governmental order. The Company may terminate the Agreement at any time upon six months written notice to Dartmouth.

If the Company or any sublicensee or affiliate institutes or participates in a licensed patent challenge, the then current earned royalty rate for licensed products covered by Dartmouth patents will automatically be increased to three times the then current earned royalty rate.

The Company’s sponsored research agreement, pursuant to which the Company funded research conducted by Dartmouth of mutual interest to the parties terminated by its terms in July 2020.

Royalty and License Fee Sharing Agreement with Ariel

On November 30, 2019, the Company entered into a royalty and license fee sharing agreement (the “Royalty Agreement”) with Ariel Scientific Innovations Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of Ariel University, in Ariel, Israel (“Ariel”). which, among other things, supersedes and terminated the license and research funding agreement, dated December 14, 2016, as amended, between the Company and Ariel (the “License Agreement”). Upon the occurrence of an Exit Event, as such term is described in the Royalty Agreement, including an underwritten public offering of the Company’s shares with proceeds of at least $25 million, a consolidation, merger or reorganization of the Company, and a sale of all or substantially all of the shares and/or the assets of the Company, Ariel has the right to require the Company to issue up to 3% of the then issued and outstanding shares of its common stock. The issuance of any such shares in the future will result in dilution to the interests of other stockholders. In consideration for the parties’ agreement to terminate the License Agreement and for future general scientific collaboration between the parties, the Company agreed to pay Ariel a royalty of 1.25% of net sales (as defined in the Royalty Agreement) of products sold by the Company, or its affiliates and licensees for fifteen years from the first commercial sale in a particular country.

Services agreements which the Company had with Ariel related to laboratory access, molecular biology and neurobiology research, and other services have terminated.

Business Description

The Company’s focus from inception has been traumatic brain injury ("TBI"), a severe form of neuronal damage caused by powerful head impacts. Patients can experience transient symptoms, profound disability or death. TBI is generally caused by violent acts, motor vehicle accidents, falls and sports-related concussions.

TBI can be characterized into two distinct subtypes, penetrating injuries, in which an object pierces the skull and directly damages the brain causing extensive damage to the neuronal tissue, or diffused axonal injuries (commonly referred to as concussions) that are non-penetrating blows that push the brain against the skull, inflicting neuronal damage.

Neuronal cells interconnect to create the gigantic network that drives core brain functions. Unfortunately, neurons rarely regenerate after an injury. As a result, following a severe brain injury, neural connectivity is lost and brain function compromised.

TBI patients can become blind, deaf, paralyzed and experience cognitive and psychological issues. There is also evidence that TBI patients may be more likely to develop Alzheimer's, Huntington's, Parkinson's and other neurodegenerative diseases. Repeated head injuries may induce brain pathologies associated with chronic traumatic encephalopathy (“CTE”) a neurodegenerative disease associated with multiple head injuries. CTE is often discovered in athletes, post-mortem.

There are no effective approved FDA treatments to help patients regain function of which we are aware. Current treatments focus on reducing secondary injuries. They can partially reduce further damage but do little or nothing to heal the brain. Most strategies are rehabilitative, helping patients adjust to their impaired cognitive state by creating workarounds, such as taking notes to compensate for lost short-term memory.

The Company developed two product candidates, QS100TM for treating penetrating brain injuries and QS200TM, for treating concussions and other diffused axonal injuries. Both QS100TM and QS200TM integrate proprietary, anti-brain inflammation synthetic hydrogel and modified MSCs and smart synthetic material. QS100TM is an injury specific, 3D printable, implantable MSCs-synthetic hydrogel to treat penetrating brain injuries (such as gunshot wounds, motor vehicle accidents and falls) and QS200TM is an injectable MSCs-synthetic hydrogel for the treatment of diffused injuries commonly referred to as concussions.

QS100TM has demonstrated astrogliosis inhibition and induction of neuronal differentiation in our in-vivo animal experiment penetrating injury animal model. QS200TM research has been completed, has shown efficacy for concussions and diffused brain injuries, and results are being compiled.

We believe that QS100TM’s advances provide a superior stem cells/synthetic hydrogel integration which will enable the unleashing of a precise, effective and controlled delivery of our proprietary MSCs so as to induce neuronal growth.

Building on the Company’s activities in its research activities for TBI’s and its activities and interactions in Israel, the Company has expanded its proprietary TBI research, to create a platform making use of synergic technologies to combat a broader range of additional neuronal diseases.

The nervous system is comprised of the brain, spinal cord and nerves. Together they control all of the workings of the body. When something goes awry with a part of the nervous system, one can experience difficulties with movement, speech, swallowing, breathing or learning. Problems may also develop that affect memory, senses or mood.

Four decades of intense research and development efforts have failed to yield effective interventions for neuronal diseases. The lack of success in the search for a drug or treatment to improve the devastating symptoms of chronic neuronal diseases has been one of modern medicine's greatest frustrations.

The lack of effective therapies for neuronal diseases creates an enormous social and economic burden on society.

Major types of neuronal diseases include:

Diseases caused by faulty genes, such as Huntington's disease and muscular dystrophy ervous system development disorder, such as spina bifida.

•	Degenerative diseases, where nerve cells are damaged or die, such as Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease

•	Diseases of the blood vessels supplying the brain, such as stroke

•	Injuries to the spinal cord and brain

•	Seizure disorders, such as epilepsy

Although these diseases occur in different regions and display different causes or origins, they share common cellular and molecular mechanisms.

Our Mission and Approach

Our goal is to develop and license biotech products, treatments and technologies through the creation of a platform to combat neuronal diseases. Our approach is to seek to marshal and leverage the remarkable advances made in the fields of AI, ML, molecular biology, stem cells and tissue engineering for deployment in the fight against neuronal diseases. We seek to accomplishes this through development, acquisitions and investments.

We are seeking to engage in strategic and partner arrangements and provide assistance and support in furtherance of our development goals. We seek companies and institutions that are developing breakthrough technologies in line with our approach. Our search is focused on researchers based in Israel, a country which is world-renowned as having a long track record of successful and ground-breaking innovations.

We believe we have assembled a talented and experienced development team, comprised of scientists, doctors and finance professionals, who can identify and evaluate promising product and treatment candidates and partner companies for potential acquisition. The core of our team consists of seasoned Israelis making us well positioned to mine Israel’s up and coming start-ups and technologies.

Our search is for value accretive transactions with high growth, and clinical and commercial potential. Following the exclusive license or acquisition of the intellectual property underpinning a product candidate, we will seek to leverage our business, scientific, regulatory, legal and finance expertise to help young partner companies and entrepreneurs achieve their goals while providing us a platform to advance treatments of unmet neuronal diseases.

To date, we have two product candidates, QS100TM for treating penetrating brain injuries and QS200TM, for treating concussions and other diffused axonal injuries. Both QS100TM and QS200TM integrate proprietary, anti-brain inflammation synthetic hydrogel and modified MSCs and smart synthetic material. QS100TM is an injury specific, 3D printable, implantable MSCs-synthetic hydrogel to treat penetrating brain injuries (such as gunshot wounds, motor vehicle accidents and falls) and QS200TM is an injectable MSCs-synthetic hydrogel for the treatment of diffused injuries commonly referred to as concussions.

We aim through future research and development collaborations to advance these and other product candidates. There can be no assurance that any collaborative research conducted will be successful in achieving its goals.

Our Market

There are various estimates of the size of the neurological disorder market as individual reports focus on particular segments or disorder, geographical area or treatment in the broad neurological disorder market. According to some reports, one in six people live with a neurological disease or disorder in the United States.

Continued growth of the global neurological disorder drugs market has been projected and can be attributed to the rise in prevalence of neurology diseases among the geriatric population across the globe and is expected to substantially increases as the population ages.

The market for TBI, which has been the Company’s focus to date, has been analyzed by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (the "CDC"), which sees TBI as a major cause of death and disability in the United States with TBI contributing about 30% of all injury deaths. According to the CDC, every day, 153 people in the United States die from injuries that include TBI. In 2014, about approximately 2.87 million TBI-related emergency department visits, hospitalizations, and deaths occurred in the United States including over 837,000 among children. TBIs contributed to the deaths of nearly 56,800 people. TBI was a diagnosis in approximately 288,000 hospitalizations including over 23,000 occurring among children. CDC data indicates that the economic cost of TBI in 2010, including direct and indirect medical costs, is estimated to be approximately $76.5 billion. According to the European CENTER, the global annual burden of TBI was estimated at $400 billion.

Market Competition

The biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries are characterized by intense and rapidly changing competition to develop new technologies and proprietary products, and any product candidates that we successfully develop and commercialize will have to compete with existing therapies and new therapies that may become available in the future.

We believe that our approach of creating a platform to combat neuronal diseases making use of next generation treatments through our development team based in Israel can provide us with a competitive intellectual and cost advantage. We face potential competition from many different sources, including larger and better-funded pharmaceutical, specialty pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, as well as from academic institutions and governmental agencies and public and private research institutions that may develop potentially competitive products or technologies. To the extent that we develop product candidates for indications with larger patient populations, we expect to experience particularly intense competition from larger and better funded pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. Any product candidate that we may develop will compete with such larger and better funded pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, established drugs or solutions and new drug candidates being developed by others, that may currently be in clinical trials.

Currently there are no approved products for our two product candidates. We believe the key competitive factors that will affect the success of our product candidates, if approved, are likely to be their effectiveness, efficacy, safety, convenience of administration and delivery, price, level of generic competition and the availability of reimbursement from government and other third-party payors.

In the search for treatments for additional neuronal diseases there are many product candidates in development. While competition may be intense there are many indications that still remain untreated and we will seek out those indications where we believe we can bring a therapeutics and/or cost advantage versus competitors.

Many of our potential competitors, alone or with their strategic partners, have substantially greater financial, technical and human resources than we do and significantly greater experience in the discovery and development of product candidates, obtaining FDA and other regulatory approvals of treatments and the commercialization of those treatments. Mergers and acquisitions in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries may result in even more resources being concentrated among a smaller number of competitors. Our commercial opportunity could be reduced or eliminated if competitors develop and commercialize products that are safer, more effective, have fewer or less severe side effects, are more convenient or are less expensive than any products that we may develop. Competitors also may obtain FDA or other regulatory approval for their products more rapidly than we may obtain approval for ours, which could result in competitors establishing a strong market position before we are able to enter the market.

Intellectual Property

Our intellectual property is critical to our business and we will strive to protect it, including by seeking, obtaining and maintaining patent protection for our product candidates, novel discoveries and technology, including new targets and applications, and other inventions that are important to our business. We also rely on trademarks, trade secrets, know-how, continuing technological innovation and licensing opportunities to develop and maintain our proprietary position.

We also depend upon the skills, knowledge, experience and know-how of our advisers, consultants and other contractors. To help protect our proprietary know-how, which is not patentable, and for inventions for which patents may be difficult to enforce, we currently rely and will in the future rely on trade secret protection and confidentiality agreements to protect our interests. To this end, we require all of our employees, consultants, advisers and other contractors to enter into confidentiality agreements that prohibit the disclosure of confidential information and, where applicable, require disclosure and assignment to us of the ideas, developments, discoveries and inventions important to our business.

Dartmouth granted the Company an exclusive worldwide, royalty bearing license for such 3D printable materials in the field of human and animal health and certain additional patent rights to use and commercialize licensed products and services pursuant to the Intellectual Property Agreement.

On April 9, 2018, the Company filed a provisional patent application with the USPTO entitled 'Techniques for Promoting Neuronal Recovery” and on January 22, 2019, filed a second application that included further technological developments and data. In addition, on April 7, 2019, the Company filed a Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”) application with the World Intellectual Property Organization to allow the Company to file patent applications and seek protection in most major market countries throughout the world. On September 23, 2020, the Company filed with the USPTO the US National Phase of its international PCT application thereby initiating its application for a United States Patent.

Subject to sufficient resources, the Company intends to file additional patents as research increases to protect its intellectual property, including for methods and techniques related to the integration of pseudopolyrotaxane hydrogel with live cells and epigenetic modifications of MSCs to induce neuronal differentiation and other cellular changes.

On November 15, 2017, Dartmouth filed a utility patent application with the USPTO for “Mechanically Interlocked Molecules-Based Materials” for 3-D printing, which the Company financed by reimbursing Dartmouth for patent filing costs.

We cannot guarantee that our pending patent applications, or any patent applications that we may in the future file or license from third parties, will result in the issuance of patents. We also cannot predict the scope of claims that may be allowed or enforced in our patents. In addition, the coverage claimed in a patent application can be significantly reduced before a patent is issued, and its scope can be reinterpreted after issuance. Consequently, we may not be able to maintain adequate patent protection for any of our product candidates.

The Company’s strategy of creating a platform through development, acquisition and investment is to enable it to obtain access to patented intellectual property in a more streamlined and cost-effective fashion as the patent process will have either been already granted or be at a later stage in the application process.

Government Regulation

The research, testing, manufacturing, labeling, approval, selling, import, export, marketing, and distribution of drug products, including biologics, are subject to extensive regulation by the FDA and other regulatory authorities in the United States. We are not permitted to market any biological drug product in the United States until we receive a Biologics License from the FDA. We have not previously submitted a Biologics License Application ("BLA") to the FDA, or similar approval filings to comparable foreign authorities. A BLA must include extensive preclinical and clinical data and supporting information to establish that the product candidate is safe, pure, and potent for each desired indication. The BLA must also include significant information regarding the chemistry, manufacturing, and controls for the product, and the manufacturing facilities must complete a successful pre- license inspection. We expect the novel nature of our product candidates to create further challenges in obtaining regulatory approval. The FDA may also require a panel of experts, referred to as an Advisory Committee, to deliberate on the adequacy of the safety and efficacy data to support licensure. The opinion of the Advisory Committee, although not binding, may have a significant impact on our ability to obtain licensure of the product candidates based on the completed clinical trials. Accordingly, the regulatory approval pathway for our product candidates may be uncertain, complex, expensive, and lengthy, and approval may not be obtained.

We will also be required to comply with costly and time-consuming compliance by foreign regulatory authorities if we want to sell our products outside of the United States.

Ethical, social and legal concerns about research regarding stem cells, could result in regulations restricting or prohibiting the processes we may use. Federal and state agencies, congressional committees and foreign governments have expressed interest in further regulating biotechnology. More restrictive regulations or claims that our products are unsafe or pose a hazard could prevent us from commercializing any products. New government requirements may be established that could delay or prevent regulatory approval of our product candidates under development. It is impossible to predict whether legislative changes will be enacted, regulations, policies or guidance changed, or interpretations by agencies or courts changed, or what the impact of such changes, if any, may be.

FDA Review, Clearance and Approval Process

In the US, an Investigational New Drug application ("IND") or BLA is required for nearly all new drugs or biologics entering clinical trials. The IND or BLA comprises three sections: chemistry and manufacturing controls ("CMC"), clinical study design, and nonclinical studies. The nonclinical studies section mainly concerns safety and toxicity in animals using the clinically intended route of administration and a product very similar, if not identical, to that which will be used in the clinic. This section typically includes a description of efficacy studies in relevant disease models. The CMC section pertains to manufacturing processes and quality control systems for ensuring consistency and the absence of potentially deleterious agents in the final product. Each of the sections of the IND or BLA must provide reviewers with a sufficient amount of detail to determine the potential safety of any product before allowing evaluation in humans.

The regulatory route for licensure of an eventual product based on MSCs will likely require a BLA as opposed to a New Drug Application ("NDA"), the latter which generally pertains to drugs of well-defined composition. Within the FDA there are two centers responsible for oversight and approval of new drugs, The Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research ("CBER") and the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research ("CDER"). Jurisdictional oversight of biologics generally falls to CBER: with important exceptions for less complex entities, such as monoclonal antibodies and recombinant proteins. Therefore, the complexity of MSCs whether wholly or partially fractioned, likely will place it under the review of CBER.

Clinical Trials

The first step, a preclinical phase, is to find a promising agent, which involves taking advantage of the advances made in understanding a disease, pharmacology, computer science, and chemistry. Breaking down a disease process into its components can provide clues for targeting drug development. For example, if an enzyme is determined to be a key component of a disease process, a researcher might seek ways to inhibit this enzyme. Advances in basic science might help by ascertaining the active enzyme site. Numerous compounds might be synthesized and tested before a promising agent emerges. Computer modeling often helps select what compounds might be the most promising.

The next step before attempting a clinical trial in humans is to test the drug in living animals, usually rodents. The FDA requires that certain animal tests be conducted before humans are exposed to a new molecular entity. The objectives of early in vivo testing are to demonstrate the safety of the proposed medication. For example, tests should prove that the compound does not cause chromosomal damage and is not toxic at the doses that would most likely be effective. The results of these tests are used to support the IND or BLA application that is filed with the FDA. The IND application includes chemical and manufacturing data, animal test results, including pharmacology and safety data, the rationale for testing a new compound in humans, strategies for protection of human volunteers, and a plan for clinical testing. If the FDA is satisfied with the documentation, the stage is set for phase 1 clinical trials.

Phase 1 studies focus on the safety and pharmacology of a compound. During this stage low doses of a compound are administered to a small group of healthy volunteers who are closely supervised. In cases of severe or life-threatening illnesses, volunteers with the disease may be used. Generally, 20 to 100 volunteers are enrolled in a phase 1 trial. These studies usually start with very low doses, which are gradually increased. On average, about two thirds of phase 1 compounds will be found safe enough to progress to phase 2.

Phase 2 studies examine the effectiveness of a compound. To avoid unnecessarily exposing a human volunteer to a potentially harmful substance, studies are based on an analysis of the fewest volunteers needed to provide sufficient statistical power to determine efficacy. Typically, phase 2 studies involve 100 to 300 patients who suffer from the condition the new drug is intended to treat. During phase 2 studies, researchers seek to determine the effective dose, the method of delivery (e.g., oral or intravenous), and the dosing interval, as well as to reconfirm product safety. Patients in this stage are monitored carefully and assessed continuously. A substantial number of these drug trials are discontinued during phase 2 studies. Some drugs turn out to be ineffective, while others have safety problems or intolerable side effects.

Phase 3 trials are the final step before seeking FDA approval. During phase 3, researchers try to confirm previous findings in a larger population. These studies usually last from 2 to 10 years and involve thousands of patients across multiple sites. These studies are used to demonstrate further safety and effectiveness and to determine the best dosage. Despite the intense scrutiny, a product receives before undergoing expensive and extensive phase 3 testing, approximately 10% of medications fail in phase 3 trials.

If a drug or biologic survives the clinical trials, an NDA or BLA is submitted to the FDA. An NDA or BLA contains all the preclinical and clinical information obtained during the testing phase. The application contains information on the chemical makeup and manufacturing process, pharmacology and toxicity of the compound, human pharmacokinetics, results of the clinical trials, and proposed labeling. An NDA can include experience with the product from outside the United States as well as external studies related to the drug.

After receiving an NDA or BLA, the FDA completes an independent review and makes its recommendations. The Prescription Drug User Fee Act of 1992 (“PDUFA”) was designed to help shorten the review time. This Act allowed the agency to collect user fees from pharmaceutical companies as financial support to enhance the review process. The 1992 act specifies that the FDA reviews a standard drug or biologic application within 12 months and a priority application within 6 months. The FDA does not always meet its PDUFA goal dates for standard and priority NDAs or BLAs, and the review process may be extended by FDA requests for additional information or clarification. Application for drugs or biologics similar to those on the market are considered standard, whereas priority applications represent drugs or biologics offering important advances in addition to existing treatments. If during the review the FDA staff feels there is a need for additional information or corrections, they will make a written request to the applicant. During the review process it is not unusual for the FDA to interact with the applicant staff.

Once the review is complete, the NDA or BLA might be approved or rejected. If the drug or biologic is not approved, the applicant is given the reasons why and what information could be provided to make the application acceptable. Sometimes the FDA makes a tentative approval recommendation, requesting that a minor deficiency or labeling issue be corrected before final approval. Once a drug or biologic is approved, it can be marketed.

Some approvals contain conditions that must be met after initial marketing, such as conducting additional clinical studies. For example, the FDA might request a post-marketing, or phase 4, study to examine the risks and benefits of the new drug or biologic in a different population or to conduct special monitoring in a high-risk population. Alternatively, a phase 4 study might be initiated by the sponsor to assess such issues as the longer-term effects of exposure, to optimize the dose for marketing, to evaluate the effects in pediatric patients, or to examine the effectiveness of the drug or biologic for additional indications. Post-marketing surveillance is important, because even the most well-designed phase 3 studies might not uncover every problem that could become apparent once a product is widely used. Furthermore, the new product might be more widely used by groups that might not have been well studied in the clinical trials, such as elderly patients. A crucial element in this process is that physicians report any untoward complications. The FDA has set up a medical reporting program called Medwatch to track serious adverse events. The manufacturer must report adverse reactions at quarterly intervals for the first 3 years after approval including a special report for any serious and unexpected adverse reactions.

Employees

We had two full-time employees and two part-time employees, however, on March 23, 2020, due to the uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on our ability to raise additional capital for research and development, we terminated these employees in April 2020. Our two executive officers, Jonah Meer and Ido Merfeld, who are our sole executive officers and directors, are responsible for the day-to-day operations of our company. Dr. Liat Hammer continues to serve as our Director of Research on an as-needed basis to assist in our development goals. We currently outsource all professional services to third parties.

Operating Expenses

For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 we had the following operating expenses:

	For the Year ended December 31,
	2020			2019
Operating expenses:
Research and development expenses		$	258,620		$	651,476

Total operating expenses		$	553,741		$	1,516,432

Total operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2020 were $553,741 as compared to $1,516,432 for the year ended December 31, 2019.

The substantial decrease in general and administrative expense during the 2020 fiscal year was primarily due to stock-based compensation costs of $213,530 related to the issuance of stock options to our officers and certain advisors during the year ended December 31, 2019, with $409,495 in stock-based compensation to officers and advisors in the year ended December 31, 2019. Professional fees were $47,560 for the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to professional fees of $75,677 incurred during fiscal 2019. The decrease in professional fees in the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to the year ended December 31, 2019 was due to certain specialized contract and tax advice costs incurred in the year ended December 31, 2019. Other expenses were $109,222 in the year ended December 31, 2020, which included a loss of $57,203 as a result of the change in value of derivative liabilities and interest expense of $52,019, of which $3,400 relates to financing costs with respect to the issuance of warrants in the year ended December 31, 2020 in connection with convertible note financings, accretion of convertible notes of $35,380 and interest charges on convertible notes of $13,240.

Cash Used in Operating Activities

Cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $220,393 as compared to $546,837 used in the year ended December 31, 2019.

Cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2020 was primarily the result of our net loss, offset by non-cash items including compensation in the form of stock options for research and development of $159,839, stock options granted for management and advisory services of $213,530, warrants granted for financing costs of $3,400 and changes to our operating assets and liabilities, including a decrease in prepaid expenses of $56,265 and a decrease to our accounts payable, offset by an increase to accounts payable-related parties. We also recorded $35,380 as non-cash accretion of the debt discount related to certain convertible notes compared to $945 in the year ended December 31, 2019, and an increase in derivative liabilities of $12,234 in the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to a decrease of $57,203 in the year ended December 31, 2020.

Cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2019 was primarily the result of our net loss, offset by non-cash items including compensation in the form of stock options for research and development of $219,095, stock awards for advisory and consulting services of $126,875, stock options granted for management and advisory services of $409,495, common stock issued for services of $74,500, warrants granted as financing costs of $36,410 and changes to our operating assets and liabilities including an increase to prepaid expenses and increases to accounts payable and accounts payable-related parties.

Cash Provided by Financing Activities

During the year ended December 31, 2020, financing activities provided cash of $211,000, which was comprised of proceeds from convertible notes of $10,000, related party advances of $101,000 and proceeds from private offerings of common stock of $100,000.

During the year ended December 31, 2019, financing activities provided cash of $470,000, including proceeds from private offerings of common stock of $65,000, proceeds from convertible notes of $70,000, short term advances from third parties of $100,000, a demand loan of $50,000 from a company controlled by our officers and directors and advances from our officers and directors of $185,000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2020, we had cash of $57,632. We are in the early stage of development and have experienced net losses to date and have not generated revenue from operations which raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. There are a number of conditions that we must satisfy before we will be able to commercialize potential products and generate revenue, including identifying and establishing strategic partners and technologies for the successful development of product candidates, which includes clinical trials, FDA approval, demonstration of effectiveness sufficient to generate commercial orders by customers and licensing or acquiring intellectual property, as well as effective marketing and sales capabilities for our product. We do not currently have sufficient resources to accomplish any of these conditions necessary for us to generate revenue and expect to incur increasing operating expenses. We will require substantial additional funds for operations, the service of debt and to fund our business objectives. We will have to continue to rely on equity and debt financing. There can be no assurance that financing, whether debt or equity, will always be available to us in the amount required at any particular time or for any particular period or, if available, that it can be obtained on terms favorable to us. Additionally, the continued effect of COVID-19 and uncertain market conditions limit the Company’s ability to access capital. We will continue exploring sources of additional debt and equity financings as well as available grants. There is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business unless we obtain additional capital to pay our expenditures.

Covid-19 Pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic has had an adverse impact on the research and development of our product candidates. Research facilities at Dartmouth were subject to closures as well as laboratories at Ariel in Israel. This resulted in our discontinuing our research at these Universities and was part of our decision to adjust our research to be collaborative and to seek aligning with third parties to advance our expanded goals. We do not currently know the full extent of potential delays of research in the future as a result of the continuing pandemic restrictions.

COVID-19 has also caused significant disruptions to the global financial markets, which severely impacts our ability to raise additional capital. We terminated our employees in an effort to conserve resources in April 2020 as we evaluated our business development efforts. The ultimate impact on us and our research relationships is currently uncertain.

The full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak continues to evolve and is subject to change. Management is actively monitoring the situation but given the daily evolution of the COVID-19 outbreak, the Company is not able to fully estimate the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak on its planned operations or financial condition in the next 12 months. However, while significant uncertainty remains, the Company believes it is likely that the COVID-19 outbreak will have a negative impact on its ability to raise additional financing and will result in delays as it continues to impact the Company’s workforce and its collaborative development efforts.

Going Concern

Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, does not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in operation. Our report from our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 includes an explanatory paragraph stating the Company has recurring losses and limited operations which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital due to the continued spread of COVID-19, the Company may be required to reduce the scope, delay, or eliminate some or all of its planned operations. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We currently have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments which are based on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results of their evaluation form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and circumstances. Our significant accounting policies are more fully discussed in the Notes to our Financial Statements.

Research and Development Costs: The Company charges research and development costs to expense when incurred in accordance with ASC 730, "Research and Development". Research and development costs were $258,620 for the year ended December 31, 2020. Research and development costs were $651,476 for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Stock-Based Compensation and Other Share-Based Payments: The expense attributable to the Company's directors is recognized over the period in which the amounts are earned and vested, and the expense attributable to the Company's non-employees is recognized when vested, as described in Note 11, Stock Plan.

Warrants: The Company accounts for common stock warrants in accordance with applicable accounting guidance provided in ASC 815 "Derivatives and Hedging", as either derivative liabilities or as equity instruments depending on the specific terms of the warrant agreement. For warrants classified as equity instruments we apply the Black Scholes model. Presently all warrants issued and outstanding are accounted for using the equity method.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), (including its EITF, the AICPA and the SEC), did not or are not believed by management to have a material effect on the Company's present or future financial statements.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

Qrons, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Qrons, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Consideration of the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has suffered recurring losses and has limited operations which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, 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.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Financial Statement Presentation: The audited financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP").

Fiscal year end: The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported therein. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may be based upon amounts that differ from these estimates.

Cash Equivalents: The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of 90 days or less from the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.

Research and Development Costs: The Company charges research and development costs to expense when incurred in accordance with FASB ASC 730, Research and Development. Research and development costs were $258,620 for the year ended December 31, 2020. Research and development costs were $651,476 for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Stock-Based Compensation and Other Share-Based Payments: The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation, using the fair value method on grant date. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The expense attributable to the Company's directors is recognized over the period the amounts are earned and vested, and the expense attributable to the Company's non-employees is recognized when vested, as described in Note 11, Stock Plan.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, 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 which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are financial instruments whose values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation.

If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.

The following table provides a summary of the fair value of the Company’s derivative liabilities as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

	Fair value measurements on a recurring basis
	Level 1			Level 2			Level 3
As of December 31, 2020:
Liabilities
Derivative liabilities		$	-		$	-		$	154,485

As of December 31, 2019:
Liabilities
Derivative liabilities		$	-		$	-		$	89,367

Warrants: The Company accounts for common stock warrants in accordance with applicable accounting guidance provided in ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging, as either derivative liabilities or as equity instruments depending on the specific terms of the warrant agreement. For warrants classified as equity instruments the Company applies the Black Scholes model and expenses the fair value as financing costs.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Income taxes: The Company has adopted ASC 740, Income Taxes, which requires the use of the asset and liability method of accounting for 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 temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. 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.

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share: In accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, the basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding. Diluted loss per common share is computed similar to basic loss per common share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if the potential common stock had been issued and if the additional shares of common stock were dilutive.

Potential common stock consists of the incremental common stock issuable upon the exercise of common stock warrants (using the if-converted method), convertible notes, classes of shares with conversion features, and stock awards and stock options. The computation of basic loss per share for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 excludes potentially dilutive securities of underlying share purchase warrants, convertible notes, stock options and preferred shares, because their inclusion would be antidilutive. As a result, the computations of net loss per share for each period presented is the same for both basic and fully diluted.

The table below reflects the potentially dilutive securities at each reporting period which have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share:

	December 31, 2020		December 31, 2019
Research warrants at 3% of issued and outstanding shares		398 694		392,694
Convertible notes		445,400		261,107
Series A preferred shares		700		700
Stock options vested		3,243,333		2,331,669
Stock options not yet vested		33,333		183,331
Stock purchase warrants		180,000		70,000
Total		4,301,460		3,239,501

New Accounting Pronouncements: Certain new accounting pronouncements that have been issued are not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Note 3 – Going Concern

The Company has experienced net losses to date, and it has not generated revenue from operations. While the Company raised proceeds of $211,000 during the year ended December 31, 2020 and $470,000 during the year ended December 31, 2019 by way of private placement offerings to accredited investors, loans and advances from its officers and directors and third party short term loans, it does not believe its resources will be sufficient to meet its operating and capital needs beyond the second quarter of 2021. The Company expects it will require additional capital to fully implement the scope of its proposed business operations, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The Company will have to continue to rely on equity and debt financing, and continued support from its officers and directors. There can be no assurance that financing, whether debt or equity, will be available to the Company in the amount required at any particular time or for any particular period or, if available, that it can be obtained on favorable terms. In addition, if the Company is unable to obtain adequate financing due to the continued effect of COVID-19 on the capital markets, the Company may be required to reduce the scope, delay, or eliminate some or all of its planned operations.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amount and classification of liabilities that might cause results from this uncertainty.

Note 3 – Going Concern (continued)

Covid-19 Pandemic

COVID-19 has also caused significant disruptions to the global financial markets, which severely impacts our ability to raise additional capital. We terminated our employees in April 2020 in an effort to conserve resources as we evaluate our business development efforts. The ultimate impact on us and our research relationships is currently uncertain. We may be required to further reduce operations or cease operations if we are unable to finance our operations.

Management is actively monitoring the situation but given the daily evolution of the COVID-19 outbreak, the Company is not able to fully estimate the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak on its planned operations or financial condition in the next 12 months. However, while significant uncertainty remains, the Company believes it is likely that the COVID-19 outbreak will have a negative impact on its ability to raise additional financing and will result in delays as it continues to impact the Company’s workforce and its collaborative development efforts.

Note 4 – Convertible Note – Related Party and Derivative Liabilities

On September 1, 2016, the Company entered into a convertible debenture agreement with CubeSquare, LLC ("CubeSquare"), of which its Chief Executive Officer is the managing partner and its President is a 25% owner of CubeSquare. The Company received proceeds of $10,000 during fiscal 2016 ("Note 1"). The note bears interest at 8% per annum and was due on September 1, 2017. Interest accrues from September 1, 2016 and is payable on maturity. Interest is payable, at the lender's option, in cash or common stock. Any portion of the loan and unpaid interest is convertible at any time at the option of CubeSquare into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion price of the greater of (i) $0.0625 per share if the Company's shares are not trading on a public market and; (ii) in the event the Company's shares are listed for trading on a public market, the conversion price shall be equal to a 50% discount to the average of the five lowest trading prices during the previous twenty trading days prior to the date of the notice of conversion from the lender.

On September 29, 2017, the Company and CubeSquare amended Note 1 to extend the maturity date from September 1, 2017 to September 1, 2018; on September 9, 2018, the Company further amended Note 1 to extend the maturity date to September 1, 2019; on November 6, 2019, the Company further amended Note 1 to extend the maturity date to September 1, 2020; and on October 30, 2020, the Company further amended Note 1 to extend the maturity date to September 1, 2021, under the same terms and conditions.

On September 27, 2017, the Company entered into a second convertible debenture agreement with CubeSquare under which the Company received proceeds of $15,000 (Note 2). Note 2 bears interest at 8% per annum and was due on September 27, 2018. Interest accrues from September 27, 2017 and is payable on maturity. Any portion of the principal and unpaid interest under the note is convertible at any time at the option of CubeSquare into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion price equal to a 50% discount to the average of the five lowest trading prices during the previous twenty trading days prior to the date of the notice of conversion from CubeSquare. On September 9, 2018, Note 2 was amended to extend the maturity date to September 27, 2019. On November 6, 2019, Note 2 was amended to extend the maturity date to September 27, 2020 and on October 30, 2020 Note 2 was amended to extend the maturity date to September 27, 2021.

Note 4 – Convertible Note – Related Party and Derivative Liabilities (continued)

The Company analyzed the amendment to Note 1 and Note 2 under ASC 815-10-15-83 and concluded that these two convertible Notes meet the definition of a derivative. The Company estimated the fair value of the derivative at each report date using the Black-Scholes valuation model to value the derivative liability related to the variable conversion rate.

The carrying value of these convertible notes is as follows:

	December 31, 2020		December 31, 2019
Face value of certain convertible notes	$	25,000	$	25,000
Less: unamortized discount		-		-
Carrying value	$	25,000	$	25,000

We recorded interest expenses of $2,017 and $2,011 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the unpaid interest balance under Accounts payable and accrued liabilities – related party was $7,449 and $5,432, respectively.

As a result of the application of ASC 815, the fair value of the derivative liability associated with the conversion feature is summarized as follows:

Balance at December 31, 2018	$	36,827
Change in fair value		355
Balance at December 31, 2019		37,182
Change in fair value		24,500
Balance at December 31, 2020	$	61,682

Note 5 – Convertible Note and Derivative Liabilities

In December 2019 we issued and sold in a private offering 8% convertible notes in the aggregate principal amount of $70,000. Such notes are due on December 31, 2021 and are convertible into shares of our common stock at a conversion price (the "Conversion Price") for each share of common stock equal to the lesser of: (a) $.50, (b) the lowest price at which the Company has converted any convertible security of the Company (to the holder or to any third party) within 30 trading days prior to the date of delivery of the applicable Notice of Conversion; and (c) so long as lower than (a) or (b), such price per share of common stock as the Company and the holder may agree from time to time. In connection with the 8% convertible note issuance, we issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 70,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.00.

On February 19, 2020 we issued and sold in a private offering 8% convertible notes in the principal amount of $10,000, due on February 19, 2022. Such notes are convertible into shares of common stock at a conversion price per share equal to the lesser of: (a) $0.50; (b) the lowest price at which the Company has converted any convertible security of the Company within 30 trading days prior to the date of delivery of the applicable notice of conversion; and (c) such other as the Company and the holder may agree. In connection with the 8% convertible note issuance, we issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 10,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.00.

We recorded interest expenses of $7,211 and $161 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, with respect to the aforementioned notes. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the unpaid interest balance under Accounts payable and accrued liabilities was $7,372 and $161, respectively.

The convertible notes qualify for derivative accounting and bifurcation under ASC 815. The derivative liability of the $80,000 convertible notes was calculated using the Black-Scholes pricing model to be $72,689.

The carrying value of these convertible notes is as follows:

	December 31, 2020			December 31, 2019
Face value of certain convertible notes	$	80,000		$	70,000
Less: unamortized discount		(36,364	)		(63,829	)
Carrying value	$	43,636		$	6,171

Amortization of the discount during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 totaled $35,380 and $946, respectively, which amounts have been recorded as interest expense.

As a result of the application of ASC 815 as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the fair value of the derivative liability associated with the conversion feature is summarized as follows:

Balance at December 31, 2018	$	-

The Agreement provided for : (i) a $25,000 license issue fee; (ii) an annual license maintenance fee of $25,000, until the first commercial sale of a licensed product or service; (iii) an earned royalty of 2% of net sales of licensed products and services by the Company or a sublicensee; (iv) 15% of consideration received by the Company under a sublicense; and (v) beginning in the first calendar year after the first commercial sale, an annual minimum royalty payment of $500,000, $1,000,000 in the second calendar year, and $2,000,000 in the third calendar year and each year thereafter. The Company will also reimburse Dartmouth for all patent preparation, filing, maintenance and defense costs.

Failure to timely make any payment due under the Agreement will result in interest charges to the Company of the lower of 10% per year or the maximum amount of interest allowable by applicable law.

The Company recorded the initial $25,000 license fee under prepaid expenses, which amount has been expensed ratably over the initial one-year term of the Agreement. In October 2020, the Company received an invoice for the $25,000 annual maintenance fee and has expensed $12,500 in the year ended December 31, 2020 with respect to such annual fee.

On November 4, 2019, the parties entered into an amendment to the Sponsored Research Agreement which extended the term of the Agreement through July 14, 2020. The Sponsored Research Agreement terminated by its terms in July 2020.

During the year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded gains of $26,809 and expenses of $80,006, respectively, related to the Sponsored Research Agreement.

As defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Company's principal executive, principal operating and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the Company's 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 GAAP.

The Company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records, that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Company's assets; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of the Company's management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

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

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting at December 31, 2020. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013). Based on that assessment under those criteria, management has determined that, as of December 31, 2020, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective.

Our internal controls are not effective for the following reasons: (i) there is an inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives as management is comprised of only two persons, one of which is the Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer and, (ii) the Company does not have an audit committee with a financial expert, and thus the Company lacks the board oversight role within the financial reporting process.

In order to mitigate the foregoing material weakness, we have engaged an outside accounting consultant with significant experience in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP to assist us in the preparation of our financial statements to ensure that these financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP. We will continue to monitor the effectiveness of this action and make any changes that our management deems appropriate.

We would need to hire additional staff to provide greater segregation of duties. Currently, it is not feasible to hire additional staff to obtain optimal segregation of duties. Management will continue to reassess this matter to determine whether improvement in segregation of duty is feasible. In addition, we would need to expand our board to include independent members.

Going forward, we intend to evaluate our processes and procedures and, where practicable and resources permit, implement changes in order to have more effective controls over financial reporting.

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public 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 the exemption provided to issuers that are not "large accelerated filers" nor "accelerated filers" under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.

PART III

Item 10. Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance.

The following table sets forth the names, ages and positions of our current board members and executive officers:

Name	Age	Position(s)

Jonah Meer	65	Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and Director
Ido Merfeld	56	President and Director

Our directors are elected for a term of one year and serve until such director's successor is duly elected and qualified. Each executive officer serves at the pleasure of the Board.

The Company has no nominating, audit or compensation committees. The entire Board participates in the nomination and audit oversight processes and considers executive and director compensation. Given the size of the Company and its stage of development, the entire Board is involved in such decision-making processes. Thus, there is a potential conflict of interest in that our directors and officers have the authority to determine issues concerning management compensation, nominations, and audit issues that may affect management decisions. We are not aware of any other conflicts of interest with any of our executive officers or directors.

Jonah Meer, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and a Director

Mr. Meer has served as our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and a Director since the formation of the Company on September 22, 2016.

Involvement in legal proceedings

There are no legal proceedings that have occurred within the past ten years concerning our directors, or control persons which involved a criminal conviction, a criminal proceeding, an administrative or civil proceeding limiting one's participation in the securities or banking industries, or a finding of securities or commodities law violations.

Family relationships

There are no family relationships among any of our officers or directors.

Committees of the Board of Directors

The Company does not have an audit committee. We are not a "listed company" under SEC rules and are therefore not required to have an audit committee comprised of independent directors.

We do not currently have a "financial expert" within the meaning of the rules and regulations of the SEC.

The Company has no nominating or compensation committees at this time. The entire Board participates in the nomination and audit oversight processes and considers executive and director compensation. Given the size of the Company and its stage of development, the entire Board is involved in such decision-making processes. Thus, there is a potential conflict of interest in that our directors and officers have the authority to determine issues concerning management compensation, nominations, and audit issues that may affect management decisions. We are not aware of any other conflicts of interest with any of our executive officers or directors.

Code of Ethics

The Company has not as yet adopted a code of ethics applicable to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions as required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 due to our small size and limited resources and because management's attention has been focused on matters pertaining to raising capital and the operation of the business.

Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who beneficially own more than 10% percent of our equity securities ("Reporting Persons") to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Based solely on our review of copies of such reports and representations from the Reporting Persons, we believe that during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, the Reporting Persons timely filed all such reports.

Changes in Nominating Process

There are no material changes to the procedures by which security holders may recommend nominees to our Board.

Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table lists, as of March 26, 2021, the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by (i) each person, entity or group (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) known to the Company to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding common stock; (ii) each of our Named Executive Officers and (iii) all officers and directors as a group. Information relating to beneficial ownership of common stock by our principal stockholders and management is based upon information furnished by each person using "beneficial ownership" concepts under the rules of the SEC. Under these rules, a person is deemed to be a beneficial owner of a security if that person directly or indirectly has or shares voting power, which includes the power to vote or direct the voting of the security, or investment power, which includes the power to dispose or direct the disposition of the security. The person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any security of which that person has a right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days. Under the SEC rules, more than one person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same securities, and a person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities as to which he or she may not have any pecuniary interest. Except as noted below, each person has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares beneficially owned and each stockholder's address is c/o Qrons Inc., 50 Battery Place, #7T, New York, New York 10280.

The percentages below are calculated based on 13,289,789 issued and outstanding shares of common stock outstanding as of March 26, 2020.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions and Director Independence.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

On September 1, 2016, the Company entered into a convertible debenture agreement with CubeSquare (the “$10,000 Debenture”). Jonah Meer, our Chief Executive Officer is the managing member of CubeSquare. Ido Merfeld, our President, is a 25% owner of CubeSquare. Under the debenture agreement, CubeSquare loaned $10,000 to the Company. Cube Square had agreed to loan the Company an additional $15,000 on the same terms and conditions if requested by the Company. The loan bears interest at 8% per annum (which will increase to 12% if an event of default as described in the debenture agreement occurs) and was due on September 1, 2017, or immediately upon an event of default. Interest is payable, at CubeSquare's option, in cash or common stock. Any portion of the loan and unpaid interest are convertible at any time at the option of CubeSquare into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion price per share of the greater of (i) $0.0625, if the Company's shares are not trading on a public market, and (ii) if the Company's shares are listed for trading on a public market, an amount equal to a 50% discount to the average of the five lowest trading prices during the previous twenty trading days. So long as the loan is outstanding, the Company may not merge, reorganize, restructure, reverse split its stock, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of its assets without giving seven days prior written notice to CubeSquare, in which case, CubeSquare can put the note to the Company at 125% of the then outstanding principal and interest. The debenture agreement also provides for anti-dilution protection (with certain exceptions) if the Company engages in other transactions at a lower price per share. The Company has the right to redeem the loan for 6 months, in whole or in part, at 125% of the principal amount being redeemed and accrued interest thereon. The Company must reserve 150% of the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the loan. The Company may not engage in short sales. Except upon 61 days prior written notice to the Company, CubeSquare may not convert the loan if as a result of such conversion, CubeSquare and its affiliates would own in excess of 9.9% of the total issued and outstanding shares of the Company.

On September 27, 2017, the Company entered into an 8% convertible debenture in the amount of $15,000 with CubeSquare (the “$15,000 Debenture”), with the same terms as the $10,000 Debenture described above, due September 27, 2018. The maturity date of the $15,000 Debenture was extended to September 27, 2019 pursuant to a First Amendment to 8% Convertible Debenture, dated September 9, 2018, was further extended to September 27, 2020 pursuant to a Second Amendment to 8% Convertible Debenture, dated September 27, 2019, and was further extended pursuant to a Third Amendment to 8% Convertible Debenture, dated October 30, 2020 to September 27, 2021.

The maturity date of the $10,000 Debenture was extended to September 1, 2018 pursuant to a First Amendment to 8% Convertible Debenture, dated September 28, 2017, was further extended to September 1, 2019 pursuant to a Second Amendment to 8% Convertible Debenture, dated September 9, 2018, was further extended to September 1, 2020 pursuant to a Third Amendment to 8% Convertible Debenture dated September 1, 2019 and was further extended pursuant to a Fourth Amendment to 8% Convertible Debenture, dated October 30, 2020 to September 1, 2021.

On December 10, 2018, we granted an immediately exercisable five-year option to purchase 325,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.00 per share to each of Jonah Meer and Ido Merfeld.

On May 1, 2019, we issued a promissory note to CubeSquare in the principal amount of $50,000. The Note bears interest at the rate of 8% per annum and is due and payable by the Company upon demand from CubeSquare. The Note will become immediately due and payable, upon the occurrence of an event of default, which includes (i) failure to pay any obligation under the Note within two business days of demand therefor (ii) the Company filing a petition or answer or consent seeking relief under any federal or state bankruptcy law or other similar law, or its consent to such proceedings and the appointment of a receiver or liquidator or similar entity of a substantial part of the Company's assets, or the Company making a general assignment for the benefit of creditors. Interest on the Note upon an event of default will be 13% per annum. The Note may be prepaid, at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, at any time, without premium or penalty.

On August 8, 2019 and August 20, 2019, Jonah Meer and Ido Merfeld each made a $50,000 advance to the Company, respectively.

On December 19, 2019, we granted an immediately exercisable five-year option to purchase 325,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.00 per share to each of Jonah Meer and Ido Merfeld.

Between October 20, 2019 and December 9, 2019, Jonah Meer made an aggregate of $85,000 unsecured, non-interest bearing advances to the Company.

On December 10, 2020, we granted an immediately exercisable five-year option to purchase 325,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.00 per share to each of Jonah Meer and Ido Merfeld.

Jonah Meer currently provides the Company with space for its principal executive office at 50 Battery Place, #7T, New York, New York 10280 at no cost.

Insider Transactions Policies and Procedures

Item 14. Principal Accounting Fees and Services.

Audit Fees

Audit fees consist of fees for professional services rendered for the audit of the Company's consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K and the review of financial statements included in the Company's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. The aggregate fees billed for professional services rendered by our principal accountant, Heaton & Company, PLLC (doing business as Pinnacle Accountancy Group of Utah), for audit and review services for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 were $16,278 and $14,250, respectively.

We incurred no non-audit related fees, tax fees or other fees for professional services rendered by our principal accountant for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.

Administration of the Engagement; Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services

We have not yet established an audit committee. Until then, there are no formal pre-approval policies and procedures. Nonetheless, the auditors engaged for these services are required to provide and uphold estimates for the cost of services to be rendered. The percentage of hours expended on Heaton & Company, PLLC's respective engagement to audit our financial statements for the most recent fiscal year that were attributed to work performed by persons other than the principal accountant's full-time, permanent employees was 0%.
