NOTES
TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE
1 – Organization And Description Of Business
American
Picture House Corporation. (“the Company,” “we” “us”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on
September 21, 2005, originally under the corporate name of Servinational, Inc. The Company subsequently changed its name to Shikisai
International, Inc. in November 2005 and then to Life Design Station, Intl., Inc. in August 2007. The Company changed its state of domicile
from Nevada to Wyoming on October 13, 2020. On December 4, 2020, the Company changed its name to American Picture House Corporation.
The
Company’s year-end is December 31.
NOTE
2 – Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis
of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S.
GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
Our interim financial statements are unaudited, and in our opinion, include
all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for the fair presentation of the periods presented. The results for the interim
periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any subsequent period or for the year ending December 31, 2024.
These unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with our financial statements for the
year ended December 31, 2023.
Principles
of Consolidation
The
condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of American Picture House Corporation and its wholly
owned subsidiaries, Devil’s Half-Acre, LLC and Ask Christine Productions, LLC.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates relate to income taxes and contingencies.
The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, known or expected trends, and various other assumptions that are believed to
be reasonable given the quality of information available as of the date of these financial statements. The results of these assumptions
provide the basis for making estimates about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.
Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Cash
and cash equivalents
Cash
equivalents are short-term highly liquid investments which include short term bank deposits (up to three months from date of deposit),
that are not restricted as to withdrawals or use that are readily convertible to cash with maturities of three months or less as of the
date acquired. The Company’s policy is to maintain its cash balances with financial institutions with high credit ratings and in
accounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) and/or by the Securities Investor Protection Corporation
(the “SIPC”). The Company may periodically have cash balances in financial institutions in excess of the FDIC and SIPC insurance
limits of $ 250,000 and $ 500,000 , respectively. The Company has not experienced any losses to date resulting from this policy.

Accounts
receivable
Accounts
receivable primarily consist of trade receivables due from customers for consulting services and from fees derived from licensing of
IP to content providers worldwide. As of June 30, 2024, $ 35,000 ( 90 %) of accounts receivable were related to the grant of a producer
credit in a proposed future film. As of December 31, 2023, 100 % of accounts receivable were due from the BUFFALOED CAMA (see Assigned
Rights to feature film, BUFFALOED below).

Allowance
for doubtful accounts
The
allowance for doubtful accounts is determined with respect to amounts the Company has determined to be doubtful of collection. In determining
the allowance for doubtful accounts, the Company considers, among other things, its past experience with customers, the length of time
that the balance is past due, the customer’s current ability to pay and available information about the credit risk on such customers.
In 2023, the Company wrote off $ 193,932 of receivables as bad debt based on a review of the customer’s ability to pay, the customer’s
Managing Director resigning, and the customer ceasing operations. There was no bad debt expense during the quarter ended March 31, 2024.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2023, the Company wrote off $ 193,932 of receivables as bad debt based on a review of the customer’s
ability to pay. In June 2023 their Managing Director resigned and the customer ceased operations. Consequently, in the second quarter
of 2023 management established an allowance for this receivable and subsequently determined that the monies due were uncollectable and
therefore was written off. Management determined that no allowance for doubtful accounts is necessary at June 30, 2024 or December 31,
2023.
Prepaid
expenses
At
June 30, 2024, prepaid expenses consisted of prepaid insurance, prepaid licenses, and prepaid services. Prepaid expenses are amounts
paid to secure the use of assets or the receipt of services at a future date or continuously over one or more future periods. When the
prepaid expenses are eventually consumed, they are charged to expense. The Company had $ 9,601 and $ 29,185 in prepaid expenses as of June
30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

Assigned
rights to the feature film, BUFFALOED.
In
November 2022, the Company obtained certain limited rights to the feature film BUFFALOED from Bold Crayon, Inc. (“BC”),
including a secured position of a one million three hundred eighty-thousand-dollar ($ 1,380,000.00 USD) receivable against the film’s
revenues as per the film’s Cash Asset Management Agreement (“CAMA”) and a 35 % share of the profits generated thereafter
(“the BC Assets”). During the quarters ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company reported revenues of $ 0 and $ 0 , respectively,
from the CAMA. During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company reported revenues of $ 23,003 and $ 0 , respectively, from
the CAMA. Inception to date, the Company has received $ 304,875 under the CAMA. Due to uncertainties of any future revenue, if any, no
value has been assigned to any potential future revenues.
As
partial consideration for the BC Assets being acquired by APH hereunder, APHP agreed to pay BC the first one hundred thirty thousand
dollars ($ 130,000.00 USD) that APHP collected from the BUFFALOED and to deliver one Preferred Share to BC for each ten thousand dollars
($ 10,000.00 USD), in value paid to the APHP from the BUFFALOED receivable above the one hundred thirty thousand dollars ($ 130,000.00
USD), not to exceed one hundred twenty-five ( 125 ) Preferred Shares. As of June 30, 2024, Bold Crayon was due to receive 17 Preferred
Shares of APHP.
Intangible
assets
The
Company’s intangible assets include in-service and under-development websites and licensed internal use software. During the year
ended December 31, 2023 the Company developed an external website that was placed in service during the third quarter of 2023. Additionally,
during the fourth quarter of 2023 the Company began developing additional aspects of its website that went live in April 2024. During
the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company licensed rights to new internal use software, but subsequently placed that project on hold and
has not established a timeline for placing the software in service.
The
capitalized costs of the Company’s websites placed into service were subject to straight-line amortization over a three-year period.
Amortization expense totaled $ 5,833 and $ 0 for the quarters ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Amortization expense totaled
$ 6,583 and $ 0 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Deferred
Revenue
Deferred
revenue represents the amount billed to clients that has not yet been earned, pursuant to agreements entered into in current and prior
periods. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, total net deferred revenue was $ 50,000 and $ 0 , respectively. As previously noted,
the $ 50,000 in deferred revenue at June 30, 2024, relates to the grant of a producer credit to a proposed film.
Revenues
and Costs from Services and Products – Historically, Company’s revenue comes from contracts with customers for
consulting services and from the licensing and distribution of film and other entertainment rights. The consulting services typically
relate to development of business strategy and monetization of intellectual property rights. The Company accounts for a contract with
a customer when there is an enforceable contract between the Company and the customer, the rights of the party are identified, the contract
has economic substance, and collectability of the contract is considered probable. Historically, the term of these consulting agreements
has been approximately three to six months in duration. The Company’s revenue is measured based on considerations specified in
the contract with each customer. Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606 allows for adoption of an “as invoiced”
practical expedient that allows companies to recognize revenue in the amount to which the entity has a right to invoice when they have
a right to consideration from a customer in an amount that corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the entity’s
performance completed to date. The Company has elected to adopt this practical expedient with regards to its consulting services revenue.
Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 totaled $ 0 . Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 totaled
$ 0 and $ 165,000 , respectively. As discussed in Note 10 – Related Party Transactions, $ 35,000 of the revenue for the six months
ended June 30, 2023 was from Ribo Music and the remaining $ 135,000 was from a second customer. The Company did not have any consulting
revenues during the first six months of 2024.

Table of Contents
Revenues
from Films and Licensed Rights , are calculated based on expected ultimate revenues estimated over a period not to exceed ten
years following the date of initial release of the motion picture. For an episodic television series, the period over which ultimate
revenues are estimated cannot exceed ten years following the date of delivery of the first episode, or, if still in production, five
years from the date of delivery of the most recent episode, if later. For titles included in acquired libraries, ultimate revenue includes
estimates over a period not to exceed twenty years following the date of acquisition.
Revenue
derived from the BUFFALOED CAMA totaled $ 0 and $ 0 for the quarters ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Revenue derived
from the BUFFALOED CAMA totaled $ 23,003 and $ 0 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Fair
Value Measurements – The Company measures and discloses fair value in accordance with the ASC Topic 820, Fair Value
Measurements and Disclosures which defines fair value, establishes a framework and gives guidance regarding the methods used for measuring
fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be
received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in
pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions there exists a three-tier fair-value hierarchy, which prioritizes
the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
Level
1 - unadjusted quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to
access as of the measurement date.
Level
2 - pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets that are directly observable for the asset or liability or indirectly
observable through corroboration with observable market data.
Level
3 - pricing inputs are unobservable for the non-financial asset or liability and only used when there is little, if any, market activity
for the non-financial asset or liability at the measurement date. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant
management judgment or estimation. Level 3 inputs are considered as the lowest priority within the fair value hierarchy. The valuation
of the right to obtain control over affiliated company, right to acquire shares of other companies, contingent consideration to be paid
upon achieving of performance milestone, certain convertible bridge loans (following the maturity date and thereafter) and certain freestanding
stock warrants and bifurcated convertible feature of convertible bridge loans issued to the units’ owners, fall under this category.
This
hierarchy requires the Company to use observable market data, when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining
fair value.
The
fair value of cash and cash equivalents is based on its demand value, which is equal to its carrying value. Additionally, the carrying
value of all other short-term monetary assets and liabilities are estimated to be equal to their fair value due to the short-term nature
of these instruments.
Valuation
of Long-Lived Assets – The
Company evaluates whether events or circumstances have occurred which indicate that the carrying amounts of long-lived assets (principally
produced and licensed content costs) may be impaired or not recoverable. The significant factors that are considered that could trigger
an impairment review include: changes in business strategy, market conditions, or the manner of use of an asset; underperformance relative
to historical or expected future operating results; and negative industry or economic trends. In evaluating an asset for possible impairment,
management estimates that asset’s future undiscounted cash flows and appraised values to measure whether the asset is recoverable.
The Company measures the impairment based on the projected discounted cash flows of the asset over its remaining life.
F- 10
Table of Contents
Stock-Based
Compensation – The Company follows U.S. GAAP, which requires all stock-based compensation to employees, including the grant
of employee stock options, to be recognized in the statement of operations based on its fair value. Awards outstanding are accounted
for using the accounting principles originally applied to the award. The expense associated with share-based compensation is recognized
on a straight-line basis over the service period of each award. Refer to Note 8 for additional information related to this stock-based
compensation plan.
Income
taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, “ Accounting for Income Taxes” . Under FASB ASC 740, deferred
tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to 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. Under FASB ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in
the period that includes the enactment date. FASB ASC 740-10-05, “ Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” prescribes
a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or
expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained
upon examination by taxing authorities.
The
amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate
settlement. The Company assesses the validity of its conclusions regarding uncertain tax positions quarterly to determine if facts or
circumstances have arisen that might cause it to change its judgment regarding the likelihood of a tax position’s sustainability
under audit.
Net
Loss per Share
Basic
(loss) income per share is computed by dividing net (loss) income available to Common Stockholders by the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted (loss) income per share reflects the potential dilution, using the treasury stock
method that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue Common Stock were exercised or converted into Common Stock or resulted
in the issuance of Common Stock that then shared in the (loss) income of the Company. In computing diluted (loss) income per share, the
treasury stock method assumes that outstanding instruments are exercised/converted, and the proceeds are used to purchase Common Stock
at the average market price during the period. Instruments may have a dilutive effect under the treasury stock method only when the average
market price of the Common Stock during the period exceeds the exercise price/conversion rate of the instruments.
The
following common share equivalents are excluded from the calculation of weighted average common shares outstanding because their inclusion
would have been anti-dilutive:

New
accounting standards
The
Company’s management has evaluated all the recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards and guidance that have
been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies through the filing date of these financial statements and does
not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements will have a material effect on the Company’s financial position and
results of operations.
Note
3 – Liquidity and Going Concern
The
Company’s financial statements are prepared using account principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”)
applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.
As of June 30, 2024, the Company had a working capital deficit of ($ 627,109 ) and an accumulated deficit of $ 6,922,254 . These factors,
among others, raise doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do
not include adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and
classification of liabilities that may result from an inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
The
Company has a limited operating history, which makes it difficult to evaluate current business and future prospects. During the first
six months of 2024, the Company reported $ 0 of service revenues. During 2023, the Company reported $ 169,111 of service revenues, down
from $ 461,174 in 2022 and no revenues in 2021 and 2020. Management expects the Company to incur further losses in the foreseeable future
due to costs associated with content acquisition and production, the cost of on-going litigation, and costs associated with being a public
company. There can be no assurance that our operations will ever generate sufficient revenues to fund continuing operations, or that
we will ever generate positive cash flow from our operations, or that we will attain or thereafter sustain profitability in any future
period. To mitigate this situation, the Company has loan agreements with the Company’s CEO and the Noah Morgan Private Family Trust,
a trust controlled by the Company’s CEO, to fund its month-to-month cash flow needs. During the first six months of 2024, the Company
borrowed $ 318,408 from and repaid $ 25,300 to the Noah Morgan Private Family Trust pursuant to a master loan agreement. The master note
agreements accrue interest at a rate of 4.4 % due and payable in a lump sum upon maturity of the obligation. These notes are not convertible.
Additionally, during the quarter ended June 30, 2024, the Company borrowed $ 142,500 under a commercial line of credit at interest rates
ranging from 16.09 % to 34.3 %. Subsequent to June 30, 2024, the Company was found to be in default under this line of credit and is actively
working to restructure the repayment terms. Mr. MacGregor has personally guaranteed this line of credit.

to extend the option for an additional two (2) years. As of June 30, 2024, the Company has capitalized $ 149,094 of production costs associated
with this film.
During
2022, the Company entered into definitive agreements to secure Bold Crayon Corporation (“Bold Crayon” or
“BC”) as a development partner and purchased certain assets from Bold Crayon, including a portion of the rights to a
feature film, and copyrights on six film titles. The Parties agree that APHP will designate BC as a “Content Partner”,
wherein BC will develop content and present APHP with a first opportunity to co-finance and/or coproduce content developed by BC
subject to a mutually agreed upon Content Partner Agreement and BC will accept such designation. The Company anticipates any rights
and obligations between APH and BC to be effective upon the greenlighting of a specific film or show by Mr. MacGregor, CEO and a
director of the Company, Mr. MacGregor is also the CEO and a director of Bold Crayon and effectively controls Bold Crayon as a
managing manager of the trustee of the trust that owns the majority ownership interest in Bold Crayon. Mr. Michael Blanchard was a
past Director and Secretary/Treasurer of Bold Crayon and is a director of APHP. The transaction between the parties has been
consummated and all IP and copyrights have been transferred. During the quarters ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company reported
revenues of $ 0
and $ 0 ,
respectively, from the CAMA. During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company reported revenues of $ 23,003
and $ 0 ,
respectively, from the CAMA. Inception to date, the Company has received $ 304,875
under the CAMA. As partial consideration for the BC Assets being acquired by APH hereunder, APHP agreed to pay BC the first one
hundred thirty thousand dollars ($ 130,000.00
USD) that APHP collected from the BUFFALOED and to deliver one Preferred Share to BC for each ten thousand dollars ($ 10,000.00
USD), in value paid to the APHP from the BUFFALOED receivable above the one hundred thirty thousand dollars ($ 130,000.00
USD), not to exceed one hundred twenty-five ( 125 )
Preferred Shares. As of June 30, 2024, Bold Crayon was due to receive 17
Preferred Shares of APHP.
On
November 10, 2022, the Company approved the optioning of MIDNIGHT’S DOOR written by Kirsten Elms from Mr. Luessenhop for
$ 12,700 (provided the Company produces MIDNIGHT’S DOOR as a feature film and further subject to producer agreements with Luessenhop
and MacGregor). Mr. Luessenhop was a director of the Company and owned 2.005 % of the Company at the time of this transaction. The
Company elected to allow this option to expire during the first quarter of 2024 resulting in the expensing of $ 7,500 of previously capitalized
costs.
On
November 10, 2022 the Company entered into an additional agreement regarding THE DEVIL’S HALF-ACRE to extend additional
financing in an undetermined amount to the film in exchange among other things for increased equity in the film. At the time, DEVIL’S
HALF-ACRE was controlled by Mr. Luessenhop.

2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Management’s
discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations
Organizational
History of the Company and Overview
American
Picture House Corporation aka American Picture House Pictures plans to be a premiere entertainment company with a focus on feature
films, limited series, and content-enhancing technologies. APHP is managed by astute financiers and supported by seasoned creatives.
To date, the Company has provided general consulting services to entertainment industry-based clients. These clients were interested
in our entertainment industry expertise and general business knowledge. The services provided included the strategy, development, and
procurement of materials including; business plans, financial projections, and corporate marketing materials for the entertainment industry.
The Company has refocused its efforts and will no longer be providing these services to independent clients. Going forward, APHP plans
to partner with filmmakers, showrunners, content developers and strategic technology partners to develop, package, finance, and produce
high-quality feature films and television shows with broad-market appeal. The Company’s management, Board of Directors and advisors
have had relationships with major studios due to many of them having worked within the entertainment industry on many films and shows
in a variety of specialties including: writing, producing, directing, casting, sales, and licensing. Although these relationships have
not yet yielded results to APHP to date, the Company anticipates it will be able to access these relationships to benefit the Company
in its future endeavors.
The
Company intends to specialize in mid-budgeted productions where more than 100% of the budget can be collateralized by a film’s
or show’s intellectual property (‘IP”), unsold licensing sales projections, pre-sold licensing contracts, incentive
agreements, tax rebates, and grants. The Company’s management and advisors will use these assets to limit risk and guarantee greater
profitability. The IP (e.g., the book rights, script, screenplay, etc.) of a particular film or show usually has a quantifiable value,
especially if such IP was written by a recognized author or by a WGA (“Writers Guild of America”) writer and further enhanced
by the addition of competent producers, proven directors and directors of photography, and talented actors. While the IP itself has value,
the previously mentioned elements plus the addition of factors like choosing favorable filming locales to film in (that provide monetary
and/or tax incentives) and formulating lean budgets, enable third party financiers to quantify a film’s or show’s value and
this quantifiable-value can be utilized to secure additional equity investors and or be utilized to secure loans. Through the development
of a strong package, APHP can limit its overall financial exposure, mitigate financial risk, and reduce the equity required from the
Company to produce a film or show Loans and additional equity, are usually only secured for films that have a package that has strong
elements and additional factors; therefore, a reduction in equity combined with third-party participation also is expected to increase
profitability to the Company.
The
Company will strive to become synonymous with creative ability, financial sophistication, and leading-edge technology. The Company has
optioned IP with the intent to co-finance and co-produce feature films and limited series shows.
Filmmaking
Stages and Our Strategy
To
understand our business strategy, it is useful to think of filmmaking in five stages - often with different teams involved at different
stages:
●
Development:
The first stage in which the ideas for the film are created, rights to books/plays are acquired and the screenplay is written. Financing
for the project has to be sought and obtained;
●
Pre-Production:
Arrangements and preparations are made for the shoot, such as hiring cast and film crew, selecting locations and constructing sets;
●
Production:
The raw footage and other elements for the film are recorded during the film shoot;
●
Post-Production:
The images, sound, and visual effects of the recorded film are edited and combined into a finished product; and
●
Distribution:
The completed film is distributed, marketed, and screened in cinemas and/or released to video or steaming services.

Table of Contents
Our
Strategy to Build Value
Our
business strategy is to purchase and/or option “entertainment properties” ( e.g., book rights, screenplays, scripts,
etc. ). that have had some level of financial investment in the development stage before we acquire the entertainment property
where the initial owner or development team decided to stop development for financial or other reasons after making a substantial investment
in development. For this investment, we may share with the original team rights to revenue from the acquired entertainment properties.
This strategy will allow the Company to reduce our initial cash outlay when acquiring intellectual properties, allows us to allocate
more funds in moving the entertainment property up the filmmaking chain, gives us assistance and goodwill from the original development
team, and reduces our financial risks.
Our
strategy requires us to make an informed assessment that our management team has the ability to move the script forward where the initial
team failed while allowing APHP to capitalize on the initial investment.
We
seek to build value in our entertainment properties by many means, including the following:
●
Hiring
other qualified Writers Guild of America (“WGA”) writers to further develop, polish, or re-write entertainment properties;
●
Securing
or attaching quality talent ( e.g., producers, director, actors, etc.);
●
Determining
pre-sales values;
●
Securing
some pre-sales (mostly in international markets) ;
●
Securing
financial and banking relations;
●
Hiring
a talent agency, retaining attorneys;
●
Determining
shooting locations, including the best place to obtain financial incentives and/or grants;
●
Developing
a comprehensive budget and devising financing strategy;
●
Securing
a completion bond; and
●
Developing
production and marketing materials ( e.g., look-book, location scouting, poster-design, etc.).
Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our
management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our financial statements,
which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or “GAAP.” The preparation of
these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities,
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses
during the reported period. In accordance with GAAP, we base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions
that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or
conditions.
Our
significant accounting policies are fully described in Note 2 to our financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly
Report, and we believe those accounting policies are critical to the process of making significant judgments and estimates in the preparation
of our financial statements.
COVID-19
Update
To
date, the COVID-19 pandemic has not had a material impact on the Company, particularly due to our current lack of operations. The pandemic
may, however, have an impact on our ability to evaluate and acquire an operating entity through a reverse merger or otherwise.

4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a)
Disclosure
Controls and Procedures .
Our
management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our
disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2024,
or the Evaluation Date. Based on such evaluation, those officers have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls
and procedures are ineffective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be included
in periodic filings under the Exchange Act and that such information is not accumulated and communicated to management, including our
principal executive and financial officers, in a manner sufficient to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, due to lack
of sufficient internal accounting personnel, segregation of duties, lack of sufficient internal controls (including IT general controls)
that encompass the Company as a whole with respect to entity and transactions level controls in order to ensure complete documentation
of complex and non-routine transactions and adequate financial reporting.
Management
has identified corrective actions to remediate such material weaknesses, and subject to fundraising, which includes hiring additional
employees. Management intends to implement procedures to remediate such material weaknesses during the fiscal year 2024; however, the
implementation of these initiatives may not fully address any material weakness or other deficiencies that we may have in our disclosure
controls and procedures.
(b)
Changes
in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
During
the quarter ended June 30, 2024, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected,
or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
