ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Robert J. Brilon, our Co-Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, is our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer. Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures Our management, with the participation of our Co-Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) (our principal executive officer and principal financial officer), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of December 31, 2025 (the “Evaluation Date”). Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any system of controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving its objectives, and necessarily applies judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on their evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that, as of December 31, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. These conclusions were due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described below. Notwithstanding the identified material weaknesses, management concluded that our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are fairly stated, in all material respects, in accordance with U.S. GAAP for each of the periods presented. Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria set forth in the 2013 Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO Framework”). Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2025, due to the following material weaknesses: ● Inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; ● Insufficient number of personnel with an appropriate level of U.S. GAAP knowledge, experience, and ongoing training in the application of U.S. GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements commensurate with our financial reporting requirements; ● Failure to appropriately design and maintain entity-level controls impacting the control environment, risk assessment, control activities, information and communication, and monitoring activities to prevent or detect material misstatements; ● Insufficient qualified resources to ensure adequate oversight and accountability over the performance of controls, including retention of control evidence; ● Ineffective identification and assessment of risks impacting internal control over financial reporting; ● Insufficient evaluation and determination as to whether components of internal controls were present and functioning, particularly for management review controls and activity-level controls across substantially all financial statement areas; ● Ineffective general controls over information systems supporting the financial reporting process; ● Ineffective controls over the completeness and accuracy of information used in the operation of control activities; and ● Ineffective management review controls at a sufficient level of precision to detect material misstatements across substantially all financial statement areas involving complex and judgmental accounting and disclosure matters. 43 Attestation of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit certain companies, including newly public companies, to provide only management’s report. Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the year ended December 31, 2025, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls Internal control over financial reporting has inherent limitations. It may not prevent or detect all misstatements, and projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate due to changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with policies and procedures may deteriorate. Internal control systems are also subject to human error or intentional circumvention. Therefore, even effective internal controls can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Changes in Disclosure Controls and Procedures None. ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION (a) None. (b) Corporate Governance During the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, there were no changes to the procedures by which security holders may recommend nominees to the Company’s Board of Directors. (c) Insider Trading Arrangements and Policies During the quarter ended December 31, 2025, no director or officer of the Company “ adopted ” or “ terminated ” a “Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement” or “non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement” as each term is defined in Item 408 of Regulation S-K. A copy of the Company’s insider trading policy is attached as Exhibit 19.1 hereto. Item 9C. DISCLOSURE REGARDING FOREIGN JURISDICTIONS THAT PREVENT INSPECTIONS None. PART III ITEM 10.

We believe goals and objectives of our compensation programs reflect a balanced mix of quantitative and qualitative performance measures to avoid excessive weight on a single performance measure. Our approach to compensation practices and policies applicable to employees and consultants is consistent with that followed for its executives. Based on these factors, we believe that our compensation policies and practices do not create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us. ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS The following table sets forth information, as of March 31, 2026, concerning, except as indicated by the footnotes below, (i) each person whom we know beneficially owns more than 5% of our common stock, (ii) each of our directors, (iii) each of our named executive officers and (iv) all of our directors and executive officers as a group. We have determined beneficial ownership in accordance with the rules of the SEC. Except as indicated by the footnotes below, we believe, based on the information furnished to us, that the persons and entities named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock that they beneficially own, subject to applicable community property laws. Applicable percentage ownership is based on 7,072,573 shares of common stock outstanding as of March 31, 2026. In computing the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, we deemed outstanding shares of common stock subject to stock options or warrants held by that person that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days as of March 31, 2026. We did not deem these shares outstanding, however, for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Unless otherwise noted, stock options and warrants referenced in the footnotes below are currently fully vested and exercisable.

Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans The Board of Directors has adopted a non-qualified stock option plan consisting of 500,000 options in December 2025. ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS; AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE Related Party Transactions The following is a description of transactions since January 1, 2022 to which we were a party in which (i) the amount involved exceeded or will exceed the lesser of $120,000 of one percent (1%) of our average total assets at year-end for the last two completed fiscal years and (ii) any of our directors, executive officers or holders of more than 5% of our capital stock, or any member of the immediate family of, or person sharing the household with, any of the foregoing persons, who had or will have a direct or indirect material interest, other than equity and other compensation, termination, change in control and other similar arrangements, which are described under “Executive and Director Compensation.” Cole Johnson Cole Johnson, our President and Member of the Board of Directors, is the principal and sole member of C & C Johnson Holdings, LLC (“C&C”), the holder of approximately 31% of the Company’s outstanding capital stock. Mr Cole is also the principal and sole owner of Energy Independent Partners LLC (“EIP”) and Bridgelink Development LLC (“Bridgelink”). On April 14, 2024, the Company, Emergen Energy LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Emergen”), Bridgelink, C&C and Cole Johnson entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “MIPA”) whereby the Company agreed to issue to Bridgelink, at closing, 1,587,300 shares of the Company’s unregistered common stock in exchange for a 100% ownership interest in Emergen. Following the closing of the MIPA, Mr. Johnson became the President of the Company’s BESS and Solar Divisions and a member of the Board. In addition, Emergen became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company with C&C’s ownership interest in the Company being approximately 31.3% based on 5,079,220 shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding after giving effect to the issuance of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to the MIPA. At the closing of the MIPA, the Company and Emergen also entered into a Project Management Services Agreement (the “PMSA”) and subsequent amendments with Energy Independent Partners LLC. Pursuant to the terms of the PMSA, EIP will provide the following project management services in connection with the development and operation of each of the Development Projects (collectively, the “Services”): (i) assist as needed with qualifying the Development Projects for financing; (ii) assist as needed with obtaining all permits required for development of the Development Projects which have sufficient rights to use all necessary real property, and for which the applicable draft interconnection agreement has been received for the Development Projects (“RTB Status”); and (iii) if Emergen foregoes the development of a Development Project, EIP will assist the Company as needed with marketing the Development Project to a third party or develop and retain the Development Project outside of Emergen. 52 Emergen held certain contractual and other rights to develop a portfolio of battery energy storage system (“BESS”) projects identified in the MIPA with a cumulative storage capacity estimated at 1.965 gigawatts (GW) upon completion of the construction of such project (the “BESS Development Projects”) and rights to develop a portfolio of solar energy development projects with a cumulative capacity estimated at 3.840 GW upon completion of construction of such project (the “Solar Development Projects,” together with the BESS Development Projects, collectively, the “Development Projects”). The Development Projects included no tangible assets, no binding contracts that would create a liability and no binding contracts for revenue generation. The Development Projects were deemed intangible assets and we have recorded the entire value of the 1,587,300 unregistered shares valued at the closing price on April 24, 2024, of $14.00 ($22,222,200). On May 30, 2024, Emergen entered into a Project Sale Agreement with Bridgelink covering approximately 2.425 GW of greenfield solar projects. Total consideration payable to Emergen is approximately $19.4 million, consisting of a non-refundable deposit of $943,500 received in June 2024 and up to $18.5 million of milestone payments. Under the PMSA, Emergen remits 62.5% of amounts received to EIP and retains 37.5%. Effective December 31, 2024, Emergen and Bridgelink amended the agreement to provide that Bridgelink may return a project, without refund, only if no milestone payment has yet been made and the return occurs within seven years of the PSA’s effective date. All funds paid to Emergen are non-refundable. During 2024, the Company paid EIP $250,000 for its portion of the deposit under the Project Sales Agreement and has $339,687.50 in accounts payable to EIP at December 31, 2025. Director Independence We currently have three independent directors on our board; Van H. Potter, James L. Stock, and Montgomery Bannerman. The definition of “independent” used herein is based on the independence standards of NYSE American. The board performed a review to determine the independence of Van H. Potter, James L. Stock, and Montgomery Bannerman and made a subjective determination as to each of these directors that no transactions, relationships or arrangements exist that, in the opinion of the board, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director of the Company. In making these determinations, the board reviewed information provided by these directors with regard to each individual’s business and personal activities as they may relate to us and our management.
