PART I
Item 1. Business.
History
The Company was formed in Colorado on February
28, 2003, as a limited liability company under the name Fidelity Aircraft Partners LLC. On December 16, 2009, it converted to a corporation
under the name Fidelity Aviation Corporation, and on August 24, 2004, it changed its name to China Infrastructure Construction Corp. On
February 28, 2018, the Company changed its name to Hippocrates Direct Healthcare, Inc., and on December 6, 2022, it changed its corporate
name to Cannabis Bioscience International Holdings, Inc.
On December 20, 2019, the present management acquired
control of the Company as a result of the acquisition of Pharmacology University, Inc. (see below). The Company began to file reports
with OTC in 2018 under its Alternate Reporting Standard and has been a “Pink Sheet” company since then.
The Company’s vision is to provide superior
services while adhering to its core values of integrity, respect, compassion, inclusiveness, social responsibility, excellence and innovation.
Acquisition of Pharmacology University Inc.
Pharmaceutical University Inc.(“PUI”)
was incorporated in the State of Delaware on January 5, 2017. On December 20, 2019, PUI was merged with and into the Company. The Company
conducts the business acquired by this merger (the “Pharmacology University Business”) under the trade name Pharmacology University.
The Pharmacology University Business is generally cannabis-related research and education. For a more detailed description of the Pharmacology
University Business, see “Business – Pharmacology University Business.”
Acquisition of Precision Research Institute
On March 31, 2019, the Company entered into the
Alpha Research Business by acquiring all of the outstanding units in Precision Research Institute, LLC, a Texas limited liability company
(“PRI”), which was formed on May 18, 2016, from the Company’s then president. On August 20, 2020, PRI was merged with
and into the Company. The Company conducts the Alpha Research Business under the trade name Alpha Research Institute. As indicated under
that caption, the Company intends to conduct clinical trials of cannabinoids as a Sponsor. For a detailed description of the Alpha Research
Business, see “Business – Alpha Research Business.”
Pharmacology University Business
The Cannabis Industry
The cannabis industry is
fast-growing, increasingly complex, and rapidly changing. The Company believes that the growing cannabis industry in numerous U.S. states
and other countries represents a significant market opportunity for the Pharmacology University Business, as persons involved in the industry
need the educational and other services that it furnishes, as more fully described below.
The U.S. cannabis industry
is undergoing rapid growth and change, particularly with the recent opening of opportunities for federally sanctioned research on cannabis
in partnership with the Drug Enforcement Administration (the “DEA”), as well as the federal legalization of hemp and corresponding
state and federal hemp research programs.
1
The cannabis
market generally is large and growing. In 2023, according to Brightfield’s 2023 U.S. Cannabis Market Forecast, the USA cannabis
market had approximately $27 million in sales in 2022 and is forecast to reach $50.7 by 2028. According to a report by New Frontier Data,
the U.S. legal cannabis market is predicted to reach $41.5 billion in sales by 2025.
In
the medical market, the demand for cannabis for research is likely to increase significantly over the next few years and decades,
due to the increasing number of states legalizing cannabis and the strong public support for cannabis legalization. By 2025, 5.4
million Americans, or 2.4% of U.S. adults, are predicted to be registered patients in medical cannabis states, according to a report
by New Frontier Data (“New Frontier”). New Frontier also projects that the medical cannabis market will nearly double to
over $16 billion in that time, taking into account more geographies within the U.S. legalizing cannabis, which will lead to market
expansion, the normalization of cannabis, which will increase the number of consumers, and medical cannabis patients turning to
cannabis as an alternative to prescription drugs. The global medical cannabis market is projected to reach $87.4 billion by 2027,
according to Global Market Insights (“GMI”). The DEA’s aggregate production quotas for cannabis were 3,200 kg in
2022 for dried flower (an estimated $35 million market) and 1,000 kg for cannabis extract (an estimated $100 million market). These
aggregate production quotas are expected to continue increasing to meet the increasing demand for cannabis research in the U.S. In
addition to government funding, some institutions are already receiving private investment in cannabis research. For example,
Harvard and MIT recently received a $9 million donation to fund research into cannabis’ influence on brain health and
behavior. Additionally, Skylight Health Group (formerly named “CB2 Insights”) has noted that average prescriptions for
qualifying conditions such as chronic pain, PTSD, sleep disorders, epilepsy and anxiety saw a decline of 11% in favor of medical
cannabis replacement, leading the Company to estimate that more than $4 billion in sales that currently go to pharmaceutical
products could be redirected towards medical cannabis. Further research on cannabis legalization and its impact on public health is
needed and is likely to take place over the coming years, as the DEA has recognized the increased need for cannabis-related
research.
In
2019, large pharmaceutical companies in the U.S. spent $83 billion on drug research and development. The private research market, like
the federal DEA research program, has an interest in investigating the uses and risks of cannabis and hemp derivatives, not only in states
that have legalized medical cannabis, but also in anticipation of potential full legalization.
The high prevalence of cancer
is expected to be one of the factors driving the demand for legal cannabis. For instance, according to the World Health Organization (WHO),
cancer is the second leading cause of death worldwide and was responsible for about 8.8 million deaths in 2015. In addition, the growing
disease burden of chronic pain and significant side effects associated with opioid usage is expected to drive the demand for medical cannabis,
which has proved to be a potent product for chronic pain management. The Company believes that these and other applications will lead
to increased demand.
Expanding Legalization of Cannabis
The 2018 Farm Bill in the
U.S. created an opportunity for hemp-derived cannabidiol (CBD) products in retail and pharmaceutical channels. Also, many countries, including
Canada, China, Italy, Australia, and South Korea, have legalized hemp for growth and export. In the United States, CBD is widely available
from retailers, including online, drug and convenience stores, natural products, beauty, grocery, and pet stores. According
to the Grand View Research Industrial Hemp Market Analysis, the global CBD market was valued at $4.6 billion in 2018 and is expected to
grow at a CAGR of 22.2% from 2019 to 2025. Additionally, the global industrial hemp market size was estimated at $4.71 billion in 2019
and is expected to show a revenue-based compound annual growth rate of 15.8%.
A recent CBS News poll found that 88% of Americans
support the legal use of medical cannabis when recommended by a doctor. Cannabis Business Daily projects sales in the cannabis industry
to be $15.5 billion and $20.3 billion in 2020 and 2021, respectively and sales could be as high as $37 billion in 2024. The size of the
industry was only $3.4 billion industry in 2015. Sharp sales increases in recently launched medical cannabis programs – as well
as continued gains in adult-use markets – are expected to fuel much of the industry’s growth over the coming years.
2
Thirty-nine U.S. states,
the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and Guam have legalized some form of whole-plant cannabis cultivation, sales and use for certain
medical purposes. Eighteen of those states and the District of Columbia and Northern Mariana have also legalized cannabis for adults for
non-medical purposes (sometimes referred to as adult use). Under federal law, however, those activities are illegal. Cannabis, other than
hemp (defined by the U.S. government as Cannabis sativa L. with a THC concentration of not more than 0.3% on a dry weight basis), is a
Schedule I controlled substance under the CSA. Even in states or territories that have legalized cannabis to some extent, the cultivation,
possession, and sale of cannabis, whether in-state or interstate, violate the CSA and are punishable by imprisonment, substantial fines
and forfeiture. Moreover, individuals and entities may violate federal law if they aid and abet another in violating the CSA or conspire
with another to violate the law. Violation of the CSA is a predicate for violation of other criminal laws, including money laundering
laws and RICO. The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that the federal government has the authority to regulate and criminalize the sale, possession
and use of cannabis, even for individual medical purposes, regardless of whether it is legal under state law.
While the U.S. government has not enforced these
laws against companies complying with state cannabis laws, it retains the authority to do so, and therefore, the likelihood of any future
adverse enforcement against companies complying with state cannabis laws remains uncertain. U.S. Attorneys can prosecute violations of
the CSA, including cannabis activities that comply with state law; however, U.S. Attorneys have not targeted state-law-compliant entities
in recent years. The policy of not prosecuting such entities has continued under current U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland.
Since 2014, versions of the
U.S. omnibus spending bill have included provisions prohibiting the DOJ, which includes the DEA, from using appropriated funds to prevent
states from implementing their medical-use cannabis laws. In 2016, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit held that this provision
prohibits the DOJ from spending funds to prosecute individuals who engage in conduct permitted by state medical-use cannabis laws and
who strictly comply with such laws and other courts that have considered the issue have ruled similarly. However, the court noted that
if these provisions were not continued, prosecutors could prosecute conduct that occurred even while the provision was previously in force.
This decision does not apply to adult-use businesses.
Despite the ongoing federal
illegality of cannabis, the DEA has authorized certain institutions to conduct research using cannabis. Between January 2017 and January
2019, the DEA’s projections for federally approved cannabis research projects increased dramatically: the number of federally registered
cannabis researchers increased from 384 to 542. In 2019, the DEA announced that it would further facilitate and expand scientific and
medical research for cannabis in the United States, including registering additional entities to produce cannabis for researchers and
increasing the amount and variety of cannabis available for research in order to “facilitate research, advance scientific understanding
about the effects of marijuana, and potentially aid in the development of safe and effective drug products that may be approved for marketing
by the Food and Drug Administration.” Further, this announcement acknowledged the possibility that medical cannabis or related products
may, in the future, require FDA approval and come under the FDA’s FDCA jurisdiction.
On December 18, 2020, the DEA finalized
regulations pertaining to applications by entities seeking to become registered with the DEA to grow cannabis as bulk manufacturers
for authorized purposes. Under these and other applicable regulations, applicants are responsible for demonstrating that they have
met various requirements, including requirements to possess appropriate state authority, document that their customers are licensed
to perform research, and employ adequate safeguards to prevent diversion.
On May 14, 2021, the DEA
announced that memorandums of agreement were provided to an unspecified and unnamed number of companies to collaborate with the DEA “to
facilitate the production, storage, packaging, and distribution of marijuana under the new regulations as well as other applicable legal
standards and relevant laws.” To the extent these memorandums of agreement are finalized, DEA anticipates issuing DEA registrations
to these manufacturers. Each applicant will then be authorized to cultivate cannabis – up to an allotted quota – in support
of the more than 575 DEA-licensed researchers nationwide. As of 2022, six companies have been granted DEA registrations to bulk-manufacture
cannabis.
3
If the DEA continues the
above policies and activities (as to which no assurance can be given), the Company believes that demand for medical cannabis, and in turn,
the Company’s products and services, will increase.
According to the Biden campaign website: “A
Biden Administration will support the legalization of cannabis for medical purposes and reschedule cannabis as a CSA Schedule II drug
so researchers can study its positive and negative impacts. This will include allowing the V.A. to research the use of medical cannabis
to treat veteran-specific health needs.” Neither the Republican nor the Democrat party platform for the 2024 election takes a position
on the legalization or decriminalization of cannabis.
As discussed under the caption
“Alpha Research Business,” recent legislation has made research in product candidates containing hemp-derived cannabinoids
possible without FDA approvals.
The Company believes that
the anticipated growth of the cannabis industry, propelled in significant part by the increasing legalization of cannabis, offers the
Company opportunities to expand. The industry requires skilled and educated cannabis professionals to operate.
Overview of the Pharmacology
University Business
Through the Pharmacology
University Business, the Company provides knowledge and promotes professionalism in the rapidly growing worldwide cannabis industry through
education in and research about the medical properties and healing virtues of this substance. The Company does not cultivate, sell or
distribute cannabis or cannabis-infused products and has no plans to do so. Pharmacology University is not an institution of higher education,
is not chartered, regulated or accredited by any governmental or private agency and does not offer training that qualifies recipients
to become pharmacists or pharmacologists.
The Pharmacology University
Business and its prospects depend on the growth of the cannabis industry and the need for experienced, educated professional persons to
lead and grow that industry ethically and responsibly in the United States and other countries where the Company’s activities are
legal. While the Company embraces the legal cannabis industry generally, its primary focus is on educating cannabis industry workers and
leaders and scientific research and development of hemp and cannabis for medicinal and commercial applications. One of the Company’s
most important assets is the close relationship of its personnel to and cooperation with law enforcement agencies in the locations where
it does business. Police agencies in several countries have appeared as guest speakers at the Company’s cannabis seminars.
In the United States, the Company has conducted
instructional seminars and cannabis classes in the states of Texas, Arkansas, Florida, Illinois, Missouri, Oklahoma and Georgia, as well
as Puerto Rico, and is planning to do likewise in the remaining states. Currently, the Company is holding seminars and classes only in
the State of Texas. The Company has conducted instructional seminars and cannabis classes in Mexico, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia and the Dominican
Republic. With the COVID-19 pandemic having abated, it plans to resume these activities in Mexico, Peru, Ecuador and the Dominican Republic
and to expand into Argentina, Chile, Brazil, Panama and other Latin American countries where its activities are lawful. As stated below,
however, the Company believes that the demand for its educational products is towards online education and away from classrooms and seminars.
Before the pandemic, the
Company offered, and with the abatement of the pandemic, is offering, opportunities for learning, discovery and engagement to students,
doctors, scientists, entrepreneurs and others in a real-world setting. The Company offers a full range of educational programs at all
levels and pursues a broad agenda of research, innovative and creative activities and builds partnerships with other educational institutions,
community organizations, government agencies and the private sector in many jurisdictions, including Jorge Tadeo Lozano University in
Bogota, Cartagena, and Santa Marta, Colombia; Clayton State University, Atlanta, Georgia; Autonomous University of Santo Domingo, Dominican
Republic; EUFLORIA Medical Cannabis Dispensary, Tulsa, Oklahoma; the Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico in San Juan, Dispensarios 420,
Puerto Rico; Cannapolis Scientific Farm in Colombia; Hemp Ecuador in Ecuador.

Educational Services
The Company offers multilevel
educational services to entrepreneurs, medical and legal professionals, cultivators, dispensary technicians, manufacturers, patients and
others who desire to participate in the cannabis industry or who are otherwise interested in cannabis. These services include:
·
Continuing medical education courses for physicians
·
Continuing legal education courses for attorneys
·
Certification courses for physicians
·
Certification for industry workers
·
General education seminars
·
On-site training
These courses cover all aspects
of the medical cannabis industry. For the general public, they focus on the history of cannabis, its medicinal value, dispensary concepts,
legal issues and ethics, production, growing and extracts, security, operations and economics. For doctors, our courses and seminars cover
subjects such as medicinal uses of cannabis, the biochemistry of cannabis, functions of the endocannabinoid system, pharmacology, cannabis
use and abuse, and administration and dosage of cannabis medications. The cultivation course focuses on germination, cultivation practices,
cloning, growth stages and harvesting, drying and curing, and the manufacturing course covers the chemical composition of cannabis plants,
extraction of oils, laboratory practices, the manufacture of cannabis products and marketing. Overall, we have certified and graduated
several thousand students in our courses in the United States, Puerto Rico and Colombia.
Courses are taught and seminars are led by degreed
professionals, university professors, and industry experts with at least two years of commercial experience in the particular subject.
For example, the cultivation course might be taught by a professor of horticulture, an individual with an M.S. degree in agriculture,
or a master grower with three years’ experience growing crops of at least 500 plants. Before the COVID-19 pandemic, classes were
usually held at local colleges and universities in classrooms with projectors, screens and microphones. Among these colleges and universities
were the University of Texas, Houston; Texas Women’s University; University of Oklahoma; Oklahoma State University; Clayton State
University, Atlanta; Polytechnic University, San Juan; Texas A&M University; and Jorge Tadeo Lozano University in Bogota, Cartagena,
and Santa Marta, Colombia. The Company believes that due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which resulted in the closing of classroom and seminar
education, as well as convenience, demand for its courses is trending towards online education and away from classrooms and seminars.
Students learn about Pharmacology
University through its website, social media, ticket venues, and local cannabis groups. Upon completing a course of study, students receive
certificates of completion, which are not certifications of their ability to work in a particular field, but recognition of their completion
of a non-accredited class. A 130-hour course lasting a semester was available at the University of Tadeo in Colombia, and the students
who completed it received a certificate entitled “Diplomado en Cannabis.” In addition, CME and CLE credits were available
for doctors and lawyers taking the classes. The Company received CLE approvals for courses that it offered in Arkansas (Office of Professional
Programs), Oklahoma (Oklahoma MCLE Commission) and Texas (State Bar of Texas) and received CME approvals for courses that it has offered
in Arkansas (University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences Office of Continuing Education), Texas and Florida (Ponce Medical School Foundation).
We were the first company approved by the Department of Health of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico as a provider of all training certificates,
including medical education, agriculture and manufacturing education, dispensary education, and others in the medicinal cannabis industry.

After the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic, all
of our classrooms and seminars venues were forced to close. We also canceled all travel plans to further our expansion. To meet this pandemic,
we created online courses. We currently have more than 100 videos available online in English, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian and Arabic
and we plan to add other languages. Additionally, we have used Zoom to hold virtual classes to teach students and be able to respond to
their questions in real time during the courses. However, revenue received from online courses has not replaced the revenue that we believe
we would have generated if our classrooms and public venues had remained open. With the abatement of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company
is attempting to resume teaching in classrooms and public forums. A result of the closing of classrooms due to the pandemic was increasing
reliance on online classes. The Company believes that this trend will increase due to the ease of attendance and the ability of students
to learn at times that are convenient to them. The Company believes that teaching in classrooms and public forums is unlikely to resume
to its former extent.
The Company believes that teaching in
classrooms and public forums is unlikely to resume to its former extent. We held two classes and no seminars during the year ending
May 31, 2024, producing revenue of $23,006, compared with three classes and no seminars, producing revenues of $52,315 in the year
ended May 31, 2023. As a result, we are concentrating on expanding our online business.
Digital Products
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which made
classroom and seminar education impossible, Pharmacology University focused on the production of educational materials for sale on online
platforms (including those operated by Amazon, Zinio, Apple, Walmart/Kobo, Barnes & Noble and Google Books). However, the trend of
students’ preference for online courses has adversely affected the demand for classroom teaching and seminars. The Company does
not expect that demand for teaching in these venues will return to pre-pandemic levels. It also focuses on entering into subscription
and commercial agreements with universities and e-commerce platforms.
We have published 50 cannabis-related eBooks in
five languages, have produced videos to offer online and have recorded over 13,000 minutes of audio in 5 languages. We have also engaged
artificial intelligence services to generate translations of these materials in up to 100 additional languages. This activity has resulted
in increased expenses, while producing minimal revenue and no profit; however, we believe that it will become profitable and be a significant
component of our business.
We have aimed to publish our educational content
on different marketplaces that host products in languages commonly used worldwide. We work with platforms from Brazil, Spain, England,
Mexico, Canada, the United States, Germany and other countries. We currently have four types of products published on different platforms.

Franchising
Until the COVID-19 pandemic, we offered educational
programs to franchisees worldwide. A franchisee purchased the right to provide our courses in its particular city. In addition to an initial
franchise fee, a franchisee paid a 10% franchise fee and a 2% advertising fee on all gross sales. We assisted in creating and registering
a franchisee’s business identity; developing and activating its websites; creating its social media platforms; providing it with
marketing plans; assisting in finding venues for their classes; explaining how to find qualified instructors; providing PowerPoint presentations
as well as books for students and instructors; and providing one week of one-on-one training relating to the operation of the franchise.
In addition, we provided one month of marketing assistance. As a result of the pandemic, we received no revenue from these franchisees
in the year ended May 31, 2023. After the COVID-19 pandemic abated, we attempted to resume franchise operations, but have been unable
to find customers and received no revenue from franchising in the year ended May 32, 2024.. In April 2024, we decided not to pursue franchising.
Consulting
Prior to the pandemic, the
Company offered consulting services, which included: These services included:
·
creating and presenting advertising material for campaigns in traditional and digital media, including publicity strategy, campaign creation, design of flyers, advertising social networks, newspapers and magazines and creation of audiovisual content.
·
consulting services to entrepreneurs who are considering entering the cannabis industry, manufacturers and growers, including preparation of business plans, guidance in business structure, guidance in seeking investment, preparation of license and other applications and development of operating procedures.
The costs of these services
were based on the nature of each assignment.
The Company provided these
services in many states and Puerto Rico and assisted in obtaining over 40 licenses for its clients for dispensaries, cultivation, manufacturing
and a full analytical laboratory.
In the year ended May 31, 2023, the Company began
to offer these services again and recorded revenue of $8,333 for that year and $0 for the year ended May 31, 2024. We are determining
whether we will continue this operation.
Alpha Research Business
Through the Alpha Research Business, based in
Houston, Texas, the Company offers specialized services in all therapeutic areas of clinical trials and has conducted over 20 clinical
trials for Sponsors and CROs. These trials have included drugs relating to diseases in the areas of asthma, allergies, renal disorders,
neurology disorders, cardiac and vascular disorders, nutrition/metabolism, obstetrics/gynecology, dermatology, oncology, ophthalmology,
orthopedics, gastroenterology, psychiatric disorders, infectious diseases, pulmonary and respiratory diseases, urology and COVID-19, as
well as devices for orthopedic and cardiovascular problems. Our clients have included Sponsors such as Pfizer Inc., Merck & Co., Inc.,
Shionogi & Co., Ltd., Medtronic plc, Novartis, GlaxoSmithKline plc, Gilead Sciences, Inc. and Johnson & Johnson, and CROs, such
as PPD, Inc., Icon plc, Parexel, PRA Health Sciences, Inc., Covance, IQVIA Holdings Inc. and Medpace Holdings, Inc. In the near future,
Alpha Research intends to conduct cannabinoid clinical trials, in which it will be the Sponsor. One of our clients is Vita Biotech Research,
LLC (“Vita”), which is engaged in data collection for clinical trials. For information regarding the interest of two of our
officers and directors in Vita, see “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions – Vita Agreement.”

Clinical trials are a
research method designed to evaluate and test new drugs or devices. They are typically conducted in four phases, each of which has a different
purpose and helps scientists answer different questions.
·
Phase I. Researchers test an experimental drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time. The researchers evaluate the treatment’s safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
·
Phase II. The experimental drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to ascertain whether it is effective and to evaluate its safety further.
·
Phase III . The experimental study drug or treatment is administered to large groups of people. Researchers confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the experimental drug or treatment to be used safely.
·
Phase IV. Post-marketing studies, which are conducted after a treatment is approved for use by the FDA, provide additional information, including information relating to treatment, risks, benefits and best use.
The Company’s facilities
are equipped with examination and blood drawing rooms, storage for investigational medication and study-related equipment. The Company
employs only clinical research coordinators (“CRCs”) with at least five years of experience. CRCs are involved in supervising
drug trials and medical research, which involves recruiting patients for medical and drug trials and screening them to ensure that they
meet the guidelines of the trial, as well as following good clinical practice, overseeing the progress of the clinical trial and ensuring
that it is properly conducted, recorded, and reported.
The recruitment of subjects
from minority, rural and economically disadvantaged groups is important to clinical trials because the benefits and risks of new drugs
with respect to them may differ from other groups due to genetic, environmental and other factors. To enhance such recruitment, the Company
has worked with community organizations, churches, social services and public agencies and has provided transportation services.
The Alpha Research Business
is staffed by seven personnel responsible for regulatory and Investigational Review Board (“IRB”) processes and a staff of
two auditors. An IRB is an independent body required by federal regulation, comprising medical, scientific, and nonscientific members,
the responsibility of which is to ensure the protection of the rights, safety, and well-being of human subjects involved in a clinical
trial. An IRB reviews and approves clinical trials, protocols, amendments, methods and materials to be used in obtaining and documenting
informed consents from trial subjects.
We have more than six principal
investigators, who are physicians who prepare and perform or oversee clinical trials, usually in conjunction with their medical practices.
These investigators are independent contractors. In addition, we have seven professional personnel who analyze data and report the results
of trials to Sponsors and CROs, all of whom are independent contractors; they are encouraged to keep up to date on good clinical practices
and regulations relating to clinical research and a part-time accountant.
Clinical Trials for
Sponsors and CROs
In connection with these
clinical trials, the Company will contract with a Sponsor or CRO to provide services in connection with a clinical trial after it has
provided information respecting its ability to provide them and after a visit by the Sponsor or CRO to our facilities to confirm our ability
to conduct the trial and to establish communications procedures. After further measures, which include establishing a budget and providing
additional information about the Company and a second visit to our facilities, we will enter into a contract with the Sponsor or CRO,
which will issue a “Site Activation Letter.” When we receive this letter, we begin enrolling volunteer test subjects.
8
Alpha Research finds Sponsors
and CROs in three ways:
·
Recruitment websites . On these websites, we search for trials that are within our competence and contact the related Sponsors or CROs, providing relevant information about ourselves, who will respond if they are interested in our services. The Sponsor or CRO will consider entering into a contract for the study only after it has met with our personnel and has visited our facilities and if the Sponsor or CRO is satisfied that we can conduct the trial and comply with the terms of its contract, which, as indicated above, are complex. Even then, the Sponsor or CRO may award the contract to a firm that it considers better qualified.
·
Sponsor or CRO websites . The process is similar to that described above for recruitment websites.
·
Personal contact .
We are currently conducting clinical trials for
Sponsors and CROs in non-cirrhotic, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, a multivalent pneumococcal vaccine,
iron deficiency anemia and the collection of biospecimen collections and samples across all ages and various therapeutic areas, and multiple
medical conditions. We are actively seeking contracts, have bid on four and believe that we will be successful in obtaining some of them.
We produced revenues of approximately $267,220 and $213,865 from our clinical trials business for the years ending May 31, 2024, and May
31, 2023, respectively.
Clinical Trial in Which
We Will be the Sponsor
In the near future, Alpha Research intends to
conduct clinical trials of hemp-derived cannabidiol (“CBD”) medical products, in which it will be the Sponsor. CBD derived
from hemp containing less than 0.3% of tetrahydrocannabinol (“THC”) was legalized at the federal level by the Agriculture
Improvement Act of 2018 and its sale and use of CBD products containing less than 0.3% of THC is legal in all states except for 18, which
restrict sale and use for various reasons, including the age of the purchaser, non-medical use and the THC content; the Company will not
sell its CBD product in any jurisdiction in which such sale is illegal, including these 18 states. The Company does not intend to conduct
clinical trials of products that require approval of the FDA.
CBD is a naturally produced cannabinoid from the
cannabis plant that differs from other cannabinoids, such as THC, for its structure and mechanism of action. CBD does not have psychoactive
effects and does not alter the conscience and perception of the user. In contrast, CBD has been proven clinically to have anti-inflammatory,
analgesic, anti-seizure, immunomodulatory and anxiolytic activity.
According to an article in Harvard Health Publishing,
the consumer health education division of Harvard Medical School (“Cannabidiol (CBD): What we know and what we don’t,”
published on September 24, 2021), there is strong evidence for the use of CBD in treating certain childhood epilepsy syndromes, and one
CBD-based drug, Epidiolex, has been approved by the Federal Drug Administration for treating these conditions. This article states that
animal studies, human research and self-reporting suggest that CBD may help with anxiety, insomnia, chronic pain and treatment of addiction.
Other articles state, with varying degrees of certainty, that CBD may be used to treat other conditions, including mental disorders, such
as depression, psychosis and PTSD; cancer-related symptoms, such as nausea, vomiting and pain; neurological conditions, such as Parkinson’s
disease, Huntington’s disease, autism spectrum disorder and motor disorders; substance abuse; glioblastoma; high blood pressure;
and sleep disorders. Initially, the Company intends to conduct research in the areas of endocannabinoid system physiology to study the
normal endocannabinoid range in healthy individuals, the medical consequences of low endocannabinoid levels and the effects of cannabinoid
administration in the organism. These studies will involve various methodologies, which will include blood tests, breathalyzer tests and
electroencephalograms (EEGs) to determine the impact of cannabinoids on pathologies that have been linked to clinical endocannabinoid
deficiencies such as irritable bowel syndrome, migraine and fibromyalgia. Research will also be conducted in oncology regarding the influence
of cannabinoid-based treatments respecting cancer prevention, tumor size and viability, cancer-related symptoms and chemotherapy-induced
symptoms. Finally, the Company intends to conduct research in anxiety disorders with a view to determining whether cannabinoids can reduce
anxiety-related symptoms and improve quality of life.
9
The Company determined to
conduct these clinical trials for the following reasons:
·
According to Forbes Business Institute, the global CBD oil and CBD consumer health market is expected to grow from $39.54 billion in 2022 to $55.79 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate of 47.49%.
·
According to a Forbes Health Survey conducted by OnePoll, 60% of respondents reported that they have tried a cannabidiol (CBD) product and believe CBD has health and wellness benefits, including the potential to improve sleep, reduce anxiety and/or relieve pain.
Based on these factors and
the expertise of the Company in conducting clinical trials, it believes that it can develop and test CBD products.
These trials will be conducted
in the Company’s facilities, adding additional CRCs to handle the new studies. It will contract with an IRB to ensure all protocols
are met and approved.
If a clinical trial indicates
that a product is safe and effective, the Company intends to exploit it by selling or licensing it. Where possible, it will seek protection
of intellectual property related to and the use of a product through patents and trademarking.
Sleep Center Business
In July 2022, the Company opened its Sleep Center,
which served Houston-area patients who were interested in improving their sleep quality and enhancing their physical and mental well-being.
The Sleep Center utilized state-of-the-art equipment. Its goal was to assess, diagnose, and treat sleep problems and provide patients
with convenient and flexible care. During the year ended May 31, 2023, the Sleep Center treated only six patients and produced revenue
of $900. The Company closed the Sleep Center in April 2023 because it was unable to obtain patients in the quantity needed to justify
its operation and the Company believed that its manpower and financial resources would more effectively be used in its other activities.
Employees
The Company has two employees, namely its executive
officers, who serve full-time. It meets its other manpower needs through approximately 14 independent contractors; the number
of these personnel changes from time to time in accordance with the Company’s staffing needs. For a description of the services
provided by these independent contractors, see the descriptions of the three segments of the Company’s business.
Concentration of Revenues
The Company has depended on a few customers of
Alpha Research Business for substantial portions of its revenue. For the year ended May 31, 2024, the Company had revenues of $248,841,
of which 62.8%, 24.1% and 4.0% were received from three customers. For the year ended May 31, 2023, the Company had revenues of $316,825,
of which 63.9%, 27.2% and 5.1% were received from three customers.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The financial information discussed below is
derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements at May 31, 2024, which were prepared and presented in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). This financial information is only a summary and should be read in
conjunction with the audited financial statements and related notes contained herein, which more fully present the Company’s financial
condition and results of operations at that date. The results set forth in these consolidated financial statements are not necessarily
indicative of the Company’s future performance. This item and other parts of this report contain forward-looking statements that
involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ significantly from the results discussed in forward-looking statements.
Information about the Company
The Company, headquartered in Houston, Texas,
conducts clinical trials for Sponsors and CROs and as a Sponsor through Alpha Research Institute and cannabis-related education in classrooms,
seminars and online through Pharmacology University. For detailed information about the Company and its operations, see “Business.”
The Company’s fiscal year begins on June
1 in each year and ends on May 31 in the following year.
Going Concern
As indicated in Note 3 of the notes to the audited
consolidated financial statements for the year ended May 31, 2024, and the report thereon of the Company’s independent auditing
firm, there is substantial doubt as to the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred recurring losses
and recurring negative cash flow from operating activities and has an accumulated deficit, and its ability to continue as a going concern
depends on the successful execution of its operating plan, which includes increasing sales of existing services and introducing new services,
as well as raising either debt or equity financing.
The Company needs substantial additional capital
to fund its business, including the completion of its business plan and repayment of its debts. No assurance can be given that any additional
capital can be obtained or, if obtained, will be adequate to meet its needs, and the Company may need to take measures to remain a going
concern. If adequate capital cannot be obtained on a timely basis and satisfactory terms, the Company’s operations could be materially
negatively impacted, or it could be forced to terminate its operations.

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic adversely impacted the Company
and its financial results in different ways, depending on the particular business operation, as follows:
Pharmacology University Business . The
Company encountered quarantines, restrictions on gatherings and other governmental regulations that precluded classroom education, as
well as restrictions on travel that reduced consulting activities. The Company reduced the impact of the pandemic by developing online
educational programs and transitioning its workforce to a remote working environment without reducing its workforce. Revenue from this
operation was increased from $18,323 in the year ended May 31, 2019 (unaudited), to $44,799 and $38,440 in the years ended May 31, 2020,
and May 31, 2021, respectively; revenue for the year ended May 31, 2022, was $18,341, for May 31, 2023, was $42,655 and for the year
ended May 31, 2024, was $36,335.
Clinical Trials . Quarantines,
restrictions on gatherings and other governmental regulations, amplified by potential patients’ fears of contracting COVID-19 at
the Company’s clinics, negatively affected clinical trials. In addition, these clinics were subject to closure if cases of the
virus were detected. Revenue from this operation changed from $165,666 in the year ended May 31, 2019 (unaudited), to $84,979 and $706,008
in the years ended May 31, 2020, and May 31, 2021, respectively; revenue for the year ended May 31, 2022, was $196,637, for the year
ended May 31, 2023, was $266,280 and for the year ended May 31, 2024, was $213,865.
The Company believes that, although the COVID-19
pandemic adversely affected the Company’s operations and, especially with respect to its Pharmacology University business, and caused
the Company to change the way in which it operates today, it is no longer affected by the pandemic.
Change of Corporate Name
The Company believes that it may have been negatively
impacted by the association of the pandemic with the People’s Republic of China because “China” appeared in its former
corporate name. Although the Company has no operations in or any relationship with China, the Company believes that potential investors
may have been deterred from considering the Company because of concerns related to that country. For this reason, and because the Company’s
corporate name did not reflect its activities, it changed its name to Cannabis Bioscience International Holdings, Inc. on December 6,
2022.
Overview
The Company provides educational systems focused
on medical cannabis in the United States and Latin America, as well as worldwide through online education and services in therapeutic
areas of clinical trials. The Company’s operating units and their activities were:
·
Alpha Research Institute – Clinical trials and medical research.
·
Pharmacology University: – Education, consulting, digital publishing, marketing, and franchising related to medical cannabis.
The Company operated a Sleep Center, which diagnosed
sleep-related disorders. Its operations were terminated on April 30, 2023.

Revenues
Revenues were $248,841 and $316,825 for the years
ended May 31, 2024, and May 31, 2023, respectively, primarily due to a decrease of $52,415 in revenues from clinical trial contracts,
which were $266,280 in the earlier period and $213,865 in the later. Revenues from cannabis-related educational classes and seminars were
$6,335 for the year ended May 31, 2024, as compared with $42,655 for the year ended May 31, 2023, because the Company conducted fewer
classes and seminars in the year ended May 31, 2024. Consulting fees were $28,641 for the year ended May 31, 2024, versus $8,333
for the year ended May 31, 2023.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses for the years ended May 31,
2024, and May 31, 2023, consisted of the following:

$ 1,206,746
The decrease in contract labor was due to a substantial
reduction in staff to write, translate, and produce audiobooks, e-books, and online videos. Professional fees decreased by $7,735 because
the Company’s legal and accounting costs decreased after the Company’s registration statement became effective on December
6, 2023. Officer compensation decreased because an officer left the Company and was not replaced.
Rent increased by $14,788 because rent for the Company’s premises increased when the lease was renewed.

Operating Loss
For the reasons set forth above, operating loss
decreased from $983,371 in the year ended May 31, 2023, to $486,140 in the year ended May 31, 2024.
Interest
Interest was $90,973 in the year ended May 31,
2023, and $154,206 in the year ended May 31, 2024.

$631,345, compared with a net loss of $1,032,579 for the year ended May 31, 2023, for the reasons set forth above in relation to loss
from operations and the effect of other income received in these years.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At May 31, 2024, the Company had $755 in cash
and cash equivalents, accounts receivable of $20,139, negative working capital of $860,416 and no commitments for capital expenditures.
At May 31, 2023, the Company had $8,913 in cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable of $10,549, negative working capital of $366,085
and no commitments for capital expenditures. The Company had cash in the amount of $1,028 on September 10, 2024.
During the years ended May 31, 2024, and May
31, 2023, the Company had net cash used in operations of $479,382 and $898,367, respectively, and net cash provided by financing activities
of $471,224 and $875,298, respectively. The Company had accumulated deficits of $5,334,081 at May 31, 2024, and $4,682,736 at May 31,
2023.
Delays in payments by Sponsors and CROs that have
affected, and if they were to recur, could affect, the Company’s cash flows.
Since June 1, 2022, the Company has raised capital
as follows:
·
In the years ended May 31, 2024, and the year ended May 31, 2023, the Company received $70,000 and $801,956, respectively, from sales of Common Stock to private investors.
·
In the years ended May 31, 2024, and May 31, 2023, the Company received
loans of $428,201 (of which $398,041 was a related-party loan) and $73,332, respectively.
16
The Company has offered 6,250,000,000 shares of
Common Stock to the public at an offering price of $0.0008 per share (the “Offering”). If the Offering had been fully sold,
the Company would have raised new capital of $5,000,000. However, as of the date of this Report, no shares have been sold and the Company
believes that it will not be able to sell any of these shares until the market price for its Common Stock exceeds the public offering
price of the Offering for a substantial period. As a result, the Company believes that it will be able to raise equity capital only through
the sale of shares of Common Stock in private transactions at discounts from the market price for Common Stock, which may be substantial.
The Company believes that, for the time being, it will not be able to attain the goals described under “Business Plan” in
the prospectus for the public offering and that it will need to obtain funding for the $2,425,000 required to attain these goals and its
estimated that other capital needs of $2,000.000 (including operating costs of $600,000, legal/accounting costs of $400,000, overhead
of $800,000 and a reserve for contingencies of $200,000 for the next two years) through revenue from operations, profits, private sales
of its equity securities, loans or a public offering at a lower offering price that for the Offering.
There is no assurance that such funding will be
available on acceptable terms or at all or that the Company will attain profitability. If the Company cannot raise sufficient funds when
required or on acceptable terms, it may have to reduce its operations significantly or discontinue them entirely. To the extent that funds
are raised by issuing equity securities or securities that are convertible into the Company’s equity securities, its stockholders
may experience significant dilution. If the Company is successful in raising funds for its business plan and in carrying it out, it expects
to become profitable in the year ending May 31, 2025, and beyond.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Smaller Growth Company
We are a smaller reporting company as defined
in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K. As such, we may take advantage of certain of the scaled disclosures available to smaller reporting
companies as long as (i) the market value of our voting and non-voting common stock held by non-affiliates is less than $250 million measured
on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter or (ii) our annual revenue is less than $100 million during the most recently completed
fiscal year and the market value of our voting and non-voting common stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million measured on
the last business day of our second fiscal quarter. As a smaller reporting company, we may choose to present only the two most recent
fiscal years of audited financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and have reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive
compensation; and, as long as we remain a smaller reporting company with less than $100 million in annual revenue, we will not be required
to obtain an attestation report on internal control over financial reporting issued by our independent registered public accounting firm.
Climate Change
The Company’s business, financial condition,
and results of operations have not been materially impacted by federal and state legislation and regulation and international accords
regarding climate change, but it cannot predict how they may be impacted in the future. The Company has had no material past capital expenditures
for climate-related projects and, unless there are regulatory changes, does not expect to incur them in the future.
Long-Term Obligations
The Company has no long-term obligation that it
expects to have a material impact on its liquidity or capital resources.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
The Company is a smaller reporting company, as
defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and is not required to provide information under this item.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING
FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Cannabis Bioscience International Holdings, Inc.
(formerly named China Infrastructure Construction Corp.)
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated
balance sheets of Cannabis Bioscience International Holdings, Inc. (formerly; China Infrastructure Construction Corp) (the “Company”)
as of May 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the
year ended May 31, 2024 and 2023, 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 of May 31, 2024, and 2023, and the results
of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended May 31, 2024, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.
Substantial doubt about 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. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has
suffered recurring losses since inception, has a stockholders’ deficit, and the Company has not generated sufficient revenues to
date to cover its operating costs – these factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's
plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 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.
Critical Audit Matters
Critical audit matters are matters arising from
the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and
that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging,
subjective, or complex judgments. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

CANNABIS BIOSCIENCE INTERNATIONAL HOLDINGS,
INC.
(formerly named China Infrastructure Construction
Corp.)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
May 31, 2024
Note 1 – Organization and Business
Organization and Operations
Cannabis Bioscience International Holdings, Inc.,
a Colorado corporation (the “Company”), was formed on February 28, 2003, as a limited liability company named Fidelity Aircraft
Partners LLC. On December 16, 2004, it converted to a corporation under the name Fidelity Aviation Corporation, and on August 24, 2009,
it changed its name to China Infrastructure Construction Corp. On February 28, 2018, the Company changed its name to Hippocrates Direct
Healthcare, Inc.; on July 4, 2018, it resumed the name China Infrastructure Construction Corp. On December 6, 2022, it changed its name
to its present name. The Company provides educational systems focused on medical cannabis in cities throughout the United States and six
countries in Latin America. The Company provides services in therapeutic areas of clinical trials and services relating to sleep disorders
through its sleep center in Houston, Texas. The Company offered concierge medicine at an affordable price through a membership-based model
through its wholly owned subsidiary, Hippocrates Direct Healthcare, LLC, a Texas limited liability company, formed on September 11, 2017;
this business was discontinued during the quarter ended August 31, 2020. The Company operated a sleep center, which diagnosed sleep-related
disorders, through its subsidiary, Alpha Fertility and Sleep Center, LLC, a Texas limited liability company; its operations were terminated
on April 30, 2023.
Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies
Accounting Principles
The financial statements and notes thereto have
been prepared by management using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with U.S. GAAP requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses
during the reporting periods. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. Certain of these estimates could
be affected by external conditions, including those unique to the Company’s businesses, and general economic conditions. These external
conditions could have an effect on the Company’s estimates that could cause actual results to differ materially from its estimates.
Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company re-evaluates all of its accounting estimates at least quarterly based on
these conditions and records adjustments when necessary. Significant estimates relied upon in preparing these statements include revenue
recognition, accounts receivable reserves, accrued expenses, share-based compensation and the recoverability of the Company’s net
deferred tax assets and any related valuation allowance.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include
the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
F- 6
Reclassification
Certain amounts in the prior consolidated financial
statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation of the current period financial statements. These reclassifications had
no impact on the results of operations, changes in equity, or cash flows.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid
investments that are readily convertible to cash with original maturities of three months or less at the date acquired. The Company had
no investment securities that were deemed cash equivalents at May 31, 2024, and May 31, 2023, respectively.
Accounts Receivable
Included in accounts receivable on the balance
sheets are amounts primarily related to customers. The Company estimates losses on receivables based on known troubled accounts and historical
experience of losses incurred. Receivables are considered impaired and written off when it is probable that all contractual payments due
will not be collected in accordance with the terms of the related agreement. Based on experience and the judgment of management, there
was no allowance for doubtful accounts at May 31, 2024, and May 31, 2023.
Revenue Recognition
The Company follows the Financial Accounting Standards
Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers
(Topic 606), as amended. This standard requires a company to recognize revenues when it transfers goods or services to customers in
an amount that reflects the consideration that it expects to receive for them.
Under ASU
No. 2014-09, the Company recognizes revenue when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services or when they are shipped to
a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration that it expects to receive in exchange for them. The Company recognizes revenues
following the five-step model prescribed under ASU No. 2014-09: (a) it identifies a contract with a customer; (b) it identifies the
performance obligations in the contract; (c) it determines the transaction price; (d) it allocates the transaction price to the performance
obligations in the contract; and (e) it recognizes revenues when (or as) it satisfies its performance obligation.
The Company generates revenue from multiple streams,
namely, clinical trials, consulting fees, seminars and merchandise sales. Revenues from product sales are recognized when a customer obtains
control of the Company’s product, which occurs at a point in time or over time, typically upon shipment to the customer or when
services are fulfilled and the customer receives benefit from such services. Revenue is deferred and a liability is established to the
extent that the Company receives payments from customers in advance of goods being shipped or services being rendered.
The Company
expenses incremental costs of obtaining a contract as and when incurred if the expected amortization period of the asset in which it would
have been recognized is one year or less or the amount is immaterial.
A performance obligation is a contractual promise
to transfer a distinct product or service to a customer and is the unit of account in the new revenue standard. The contract transaction
price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied.
Each contract has a single performance obligation as the promise to transfer the individual goods or services is not separately identifiable
from other promises in the contracts and, therefore, not distinct. Revenue from contracts that satisfy the criteria for overtime recognition
is recognized as the work progresses. The majority of the Company’s revenue is derived from services provided to customers and is
executed typically over a period that is typically between 1 to 12 months, based on evaluation of when these services are rendered. Contracts
will continue to be recognized over time because of the continuous transfer of control to the customer as services are rendered to customers.
Payments made by customers in advance of services being rendered are recorded as deferred revenue.
F- 7
Our significant
payment terms for customer contracts vary based on the revenue stream. Franchising business clients are required to advance a percentage
of the franchise fee upon acceptance of the contract. These advances, when received, are accounted for as contract liabilities on the
consolidated balance sheet and are subsequently recognized in revenue when they are earned. Contracts for clinical trials typically provide
for progress payments based on the number of patients seen, with final payments generally due within 30 days upon completion of work
or the termination of the contract. Revenue is recognized when all performance obligations under the terms of a contract are satisfied.
The Company requires advance payments from its consulting customers and these payments are recorded as contract liabilities on the consolidated
balance sheet until service is performed and revenue is recognized. These advance payments are not treated as financing components based
on the guidance in ASC 606-10-32-196-16 and -17, whereby the timing of when services are provided is at the discretion of the customers
or a substantial amount of the consideration promised by the customer is variable and not in the control of the customer or the Company.
Contracts
for educational services require nonrefundable payment in advance and are recorded as revenue when received.
There is
no significant financing component to any contracts.
Contract Modifications
Contracts
for the Company’s clinical trial business are subject to modification. These modifications may create new, or change existing, enforceable
rights and obligations of the parties thereto. Modifications are generally effected pursuant to an amendment or addendum to the original
contract. A contract modification is accounted for as a new contract if it reflects an increase in scope that is regarded as distinct
from the original contract and is priced in line with the standalone price for the related services. If a contract modification is not
considered a new contract, the modification is combined with the original contract and the impact on revenue recognition will depend on
whether the remaining services are distinct from the original contract. If they are distinct from those in the original contract, all
remaining performance obligations will be accounted for on a prospective basis, with unrecognized consideration allocated to the remaining
performance obligations. If the remaining goods or services are not distinct, the modification will be treated as if it were a part of
the existing contract and the effect that the contract modification has on the transaction price and the measure of progress toward
satisfaction of the performance obligations are recognized as an adjustment to revenue (either as an increase in or a reduction of revenue)
at the date of the contract modification on a cumulative catch-up basis.
Remaining Performance Obligations
The Company follows ASC 606, which requires the
allocation of the transaction price to the remaining performance obligations of a contract and applies a practical expedient allowing
it not to disclose the amount of the transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations for contracts with an original
expected duration of one year or less. As of May 31, 2024, and May 31, 2023, the Company had no remaining performance obligations.
Share-Based Payments
ASC 718,
“ Compensation – Stock Compensation, ” prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all share-based
payment transactions. In June 2018, FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements
to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which aligns accounting for share-based payments issued to non-employees to that of
employees under the existing guidance of Topic 718, with certain exceptions. This update supersedes previous guidance for share-based
payments to non-employees under Subtopic 505-50, Equity – Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. This guidance became effective
for the Company on January 1, 2019. Based on its completed analysis, the Company has determined that adopting this guidance will not have
a material impact on its financial statements. The Company follows FASB guidance related to equity-based payments, which requires that
equity-based compensation be accounted for using a fair value method and recognized as expense in the accompanying statements of operations.
Equity-based compensation expense will be recognized as compensation expense.

The Company has adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases
(Topic 842), along with related clarifications and improvements, under which lessees are required to recognize a lease liability,
which represents the discounted obligation to make future minimum lease payments and a corresponding right-of-use asset on the balance
sheet for most leases. The guidance retains the historical accounting for lessors and does not make significant changes to the recognition,
measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows by a lessee. Enhanced disclosures are also required to give financial statement
users the ability to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases.
Cash Flows
The Company follows ASU 2016-18, “ Statement
of Cash Flows (Topic 230), ” requiring that the statement of cash flows explain the change in the total cash, cash equivalents,
and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. The provisions of this guidance are to be applied using
a retrospective approach, which requires the application of the guidance for all periods presented.
Fair Value Measurements
The Company has adopted ASC Topic 820, Fair
Value Measurements, which defines fair value as used in numerous accounting pronouncements, establishes a framework for measuring
fair value and expands disclosure of fair-value measurements.
The estimated fair value of certain financial
instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, is carried at historical
cost basis, which approximates their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying amounts of the Company’s
short- and long-term credit obligations approximate fair value because the effective yields on these obligations, which include contractual
interest rates taken together with other features, such as concurrent issuances of warrants and/or embedded conversion options, are comparable
to rates of returns for instruments of similar credit risk.
ASC Topic 820 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 Topic 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 Topic 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: Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities
in active markets or inputs that are observable.
Level 3: Inputs that are unobservable (for example, cash
flow modeling inputs based on assumptions).
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance
with Accounting Standards Codification No. 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). This codification prescribes
the use of the asset and liability method whereby deferred tax asset and liability account balances are determined based on differences
between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and for carryforward tax losses. Deferred taxes are measured using
the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company provides a valuation allowance,
if necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to their estimated realizable value if it is more likely than not that some portion or all
of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.
F- 9
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are classified
as current or noncurrent based on the classification of the related asset or liability for financial reporting or according to the expected
reversal dates of the specific temporary differences, if not related to an asset or liability for financial reporting.
The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions
in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, which provides guidance as to the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected
to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in its unaudited financial statements, under which a company may recognize the tax benefit
from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing
authorities, based on the technical merits of the position.
The tax benefits recognized in financial statements
from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate
settlement. Accordingly, the Company would report a liability for unrecognized tax benefits resulting from uncertain tax positions taken
or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Company elects to recognize any interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax
benefits in tax expense.
Loss per Share
The Company computes basic earnings per share
amounts in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 260, “Earnings per Share.” Basic earnings per share
is calculated by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
during the reporting period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common
stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. At May 31, 2024, and May 31, 2023,
the Company had no dilutive securities.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
The Company does not believe there are any other
recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards that would have a significant impact on the Company’s financial position
or results of operations.
Note 3 – Going Concern
The accompanying audited financial statements
have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which contemplates the Company’s continuation as a going concern in accordance with
ASC 240-40-50. The Company’s history of recurring losses, negative working capital and negative cash flows from operating activities
raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has not generated any profits since inception and
its current cash balances will not meet its working capital needs. At May 31, 2024, the Company had a net loss from operations of $ 486,140 ,
net cash used in operations of $ 479,382 , a working capital deficit of $ 860,417 and an accumulated deficit of $ 5,334,081 .
The ability of the Company to continue as a going
concern depends on the successful execution of its operating plan, which includes expanding its operations and raising either debt or
equity financing. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to expand its operations or obtain such financing on satisfactory
terms or at all. If the Company is unsuccessful in these endeavors, it may be required to curtail or cease its operations.
The accompanying financial statements do not include
any adjustments related to the recoverability or classification of asset carrying amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities
that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

5 – Right-of-Use Assets and Lease Liabilities
The Company leases real property from unrelated
parties under leases that are classified as operating leases. The right-of-use assets for operating leases are included in right-of-use
assets on the balance sheets, with the corresponding lease liability in liabilities. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis
over the lease term. Renewals and terminations are included in the calculation of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities when they
are considered reasonably certain to be exercised. When the implicit rate is unknown, the incremental borrowing rate, based on the commencement
date, is used in determining the present value of lease payments.

and gain/loss resulting from changes in foreign currency. Revenue is recorded when customer acceptance is received and all performance
obligations have been satisfied. Sales of goods typically do not include multiple products and/or service elements.

Note 7 – Stockholders’ Deficiency
The Company is authorized to issue 20,010,000,000
of capital stock, of which 20,000,000,000 shares are Common Stock, without par value, and 10,000,000 are preferred stock, issuable in
series.
Preferred Stock
The Company has designated 2,500,000 shares of
preferred stock as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Stock”). Until July 20, 2022, each share had a par
value of $ 0.001 ; on that date, the Company amended its articles of incorporation to provide that each such share has no par value. Under
this amendment, (i) Series A Stock is entitled to receive dividends on the shares of Common Stock into which such shares are convertible,
(ii) has the voting power of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares are convertible, (iii) is redeemable at the option
of the Company for a redemption price equal to the number of shares of Common Stock into which the redeemed shares are convertible and
(iv) are senior to the Common Stock and junior to the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock described below. At May 31, 2024, and May 31,
2023, there were 2,500,000 shares of Series A Stock issued and outstanding.
On July 20, 2022, the Company designated a
series of preferred stock, named Series B Preferred Convertible Preferred Stock, comprising 1,000
shares (“Series B Preferred”). The shares of this series have no
par value, are not entitled to dividends, have no liquidation rights, are not redeemable, are not convertible, have 60% of the
Company’s voting power and rank senior to the Common Stock and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. The 1,000
preferred shares were issued in exchange for Common Stock to a related party. The Company has deemed the value of the preferred and
common shares to be the same, resulting in no change to additional paid-in capital. At May 31, 2024, and May 31, 2023, there were 1,000
shares of Series B Preferred issued and outstanding.
Common Stock
During the year ended May 31, 2024, the Company
sold 272,071,428 shares of Common Stock for $ 70,000 and during the year ended May 31, 2022, the Company sold 2,042,146,825 shares of Common
Stock for $ 801,966 .
During the year ended May 31, 2024, the Company
issued 100,000,000 shares of Common Stock for services rendered. These shares had a market value of $ 75,000 on the date of their issuance.
At May 31, 2024, and May 31, 2023,
respectively, there were 10,431,749,347
and 10,059,677,919
shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding.
F- 13
Note 8 – Share-Based Compensation
On July 20, 2022, the Company adopted its 2022
Equity Incentive Plan, which provides for the grant of incentive and non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted
stock, unrestricted stock, restricted stock units and performance awards to directors, officers, employees and consultants, as determined
by the Board, as plan administrator. The Company will recognize as share-based compensation expense all share-based payments to employees
over the requisite service period (generally the vesting period) in its consolidated statements of operations based on the fair values
of the awards that are issued.
Note 9 – Income Taxes
The Company provides for income taxes under ASC
740. Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between
the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in effect when these differences are expected to reverse.
A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize tax
assets through future operations.
On December 22, 2017, the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs
Act (the “Tax Act”) was enacted into law, making significant changes to the Code. These changes included a federal corporate
tax rate decrease from 35 % to 21 % for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017, the transition of U.S. international taxation
from a worldwide tax system to a territorial system and a one-time transition tax on the mandatory deemed repatriation of foreign earnings.
The Company is required to recognize the effect of the tax law changes in the period of enactment, such as re-measuring its U.S. deferred
tax assets and liabilities as well as reassessing the net realizability of its deferred tax assets and liabilities. The Tax Act did not
give rise to any material impact on the balance sheets and statements of operations due to the Company’s historical worldwide loss
position and the full valuation allowance on its net U.S. deferred tax assets. The reconciliation of taxes at the federal and state statutory
rate to the Company’s provision for income taxes for the years ended May 31, 2024, and May 31, 2023, was as follows:

Due to changes in ownership provisions of
the income tax laws of the United States of America, net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $ 5,334,081
and $ 4,682,736
at May 31, 2024, and May 31, 2023, respectively, are subject to annual limitations for federal income tax reporting purposes. When a change in ownership occurs, the use of net operating loss carryforwards may be limited in
future years. They generally expire 20 years from when incurred.
Income taxes for 2017 to 2024 remain subject to
examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

Note 10 – Commitments and Contingencies
The Company leased premises of approximately
4,500 square feet located at 6201 Bonhomme Road, Suites 460S and 466S, Houston, Texas. The lease provided for a base rent of $ 3,382
per month, increasing to (i) $ 3,529
per month on July 1, 2020, (ii) $ 3,676 .04
per month on July 1, 2021, and (iii) $ 3,823

March 23, 2023, the Company amended the lease to extend its term to June 30, 2024, at a base rent of $4,779 per month. For
information regarding the recording of the right-of-use asset and the lease liability in the balance sheets with respect to this
lease, see Note 5. This lease was terminated effective May 1, 2024, and on that date, the Company leased premises of approximately
1,367 square feet located at 6201 Bonhomme Road, Suite 435N, Houston, Texas, under a lease dated April 12, 2024. This lease, which
has a one-year term that commenced on May 1, 2024, provides for base rent of $1,631 per month.
Two of the Company’s officers leased 1,400
square feet in Houston, Texas, at 1625 Main St., Houston, Texas, under a lease the term of which commenced on March 15, 2023, and expired
on September 14, 2023 , at a rent of $ 3,168 per month. These officers made a portion of these premises available to the Company for
use as office space, for which the Company paid them $ 2,817 per month. These officers entered into a new lease for these premises, which
commenced on September 15, 2023, and will expire on September 14, 2024 , at a rent of $ 3,164 per month and they made a portion of these
premises available to the Company for use as office space, for which the Company is paying them $ 2,817 per month.
Note 11 – Related Party Transactions
See Note 10 for information respecting the lease
of real property to the Company by two of its officers.
On April 26, 2024, the Company made a promissory note in the principal
amount of $ 291,451 in favor of a related party. This note matures on April 25, 2025 , bears interest at the rate of 10 % per annum and is
repayable in 10 monthly installments of $ 29,145 . Events of default include failure to pay principal or interest when due, breach of covenant,
breach of representation and warranty, assignment for the benefit of creditors or appointment of a receiver, bankruptcy and cessation
of operations. The Jones Note replaces promissory notes previously made by the Company in favor of the related party.
During the year ended May 31, 2023, the Company
received cash advances from related parties of $ 101,335 for use as working capital.
The balance of related party liabilities outstanding
to certain shareholders totaled $ 503,214 and $ 105,173 at May 31, 2024, and May 31, 2023, respectively.
Note 12 – Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements
The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Note 13 – Concentration of Risk
The Company had revenue, of $ 248,841 and $ 316,825 for the years ending May 31, 2024, and May 31, 2023, respectively.
The Company had two customers that provided 82 %
of gross revenue for the year ended May 31, 2024, and three customers that provided 84 % of gross revenue for the year ended May 31, 2023.
Note 14 – Subsequent Events
In previous years, the COVID-19 pandemic had
a material adverse effect on the Company’s educational business because governmental measures that we imposed to control it
resulted in the closing of classrooms and other educational venues, and also hindered the Company’s franchising and consulting
activities. The Company believes that its operations are no longer affected by the pandemic.
F- 15
On May 13, 2024, the Company agreed to
settle $38,638 owing under the AF Agreement in consideration of a payment of $15,000, which the Company made on June 12, 2024. Under
ASC 470-50-40, the fair value of extinguished debt, less the fair value of the payment, is to be treated as gain. Accordingly,
$23,638 will be recorded in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the quarter ended August 31, 2024, as Other
Income – Forgiveness of Debt.
On August 11, 2024, the Board authorized the issuance
of 125,000,000 shares of Common Stock to a related party on May 31, 2025, May 31, 2026, May 31, 2027, and May 31, 2028, in compensation
for such services as an officer of the Company during the years then ended, if he is serving as treasurer on those dates.
On August 11, 2024, the Board authorized the issuance
of 125,000,000 shares of Common Stock to a related party as compensation for his services as an officer of the Company for the year ended
May 31, 2024, and the issuance of like amounts on May 31, 2025, May 31, 2026, and May 31, 2027, in compensation for such services during
the years then ended, if he is serving as treasurer on those dates.
On August 12, 2024, the Company amended its amended
and restated articles of incorporation to increase the number of shares designated Series A Preferred Stock from 1,000 to 2,000 and on

issued by operation of law.
On September 3, 2024, one of the Company’s
officers entered into a new lease for the apartment at 1625 Main St., Houston, Texas (see Note 10). The term of the lease begins on September
15, 2024, and ends on August 14, 2025. The officer intends to make a portion of these premises available to the Company for use as office
space, for which the Company will pay him $2,817 per month.
Management has evaluated all other subsequent
events when these consolidated financial statements were issued and has determined that none of them requires disclosure herein.
F- 16
Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosures.
None.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Management, with the participation of the principal
executive officer and principal accounting officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s
disclosure controls and procedures, as this term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act, as of May 31, 2024.
Based on this evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal accounting officer concluded that these disclosure controls and
procedures were not effective as of that date, at a reasonable level of assurance, in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed
by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (a) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s
management, including its the principal executive officer and principal accounting officer, in a timely manner to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure, and (b) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified in the SEC’s rules
and forms.
Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and
maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as this term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated 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 GAAP and includes those policies
and procedures that (a) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions
and dispositions of the assets of the company; (b) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in
accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (c) 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 its
financial statements.
Under the supervision and with the participation
of management, including the principal executive officer and principal accounting officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the
effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria in Internal Control – Integrated Framework
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2017 framework) (“COSO”). Based on this
evaluation, management concluded that internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of May 31, 2024. 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. As defined in Rule 12b-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act, a material
weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable
possibility that a material misstatement in the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected
on a timely basis. The Company’s evaluation of its internal control over financial reporting identified the following material weaknesses
in internal control over financial reporting as of May 31, 2024:
·
The Company has difficulty in accounting for complex transactions.
·
Documented processes do not exist for several key processes.
·
The Company lacks oversight by the Board because it has no directors who are independent of management and no audit committee.
Because of the material weaknesses noted above,
the Company has concluded, based on COSO, that it did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of May 31, 2024.
19
Chan g es in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company’s internal

Code of Conduct
The Board has adopted a Code of Conduct, which
is applicable to all of the Company’s employees, officers (including its principal executive officer, principal financial officer,
principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions), directors, agents and other parties acting on its
behalf. A copy of this Code has been filed as an exhibit to this Report and is posted on the Company’s website at www.cbih.net.
The Code may also be viewed by accessing the Company’s public filings at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. A copy of the
Code will be provided without charge upon request by mail at the Company’s address shown on the cover page of this Report, to the
attention of the chief executive officer.

including any required accounting restatement to correct an error in previously issued financial statements that is material to the
previously issued financial statements or that would result in a material misstatement if the error were corrected in the current
period or left uncorrected in the current period. “Erroneously Awarded Compensation” means the amount of incentive-based

delivered no compensation that is subject to recovery under this policy.

The Board has adopted an Insider Trading Policy

Compensation Discussion and Analysis
The Company has determined the amount paid
as salary to Mr. Picazo based solely on the Company’s ability to pay. The Company believes that his salary is substantially
lower than he could earn in an equivalent position at another company and that he has elected to receive his salary and remain with
the Company because his equity position in the Company, his belief in the prospects of the Company and intangible reasons of which
the Company may not be aware. The Company believes that it needs to be able to provide competitive compensation to Mr. Picazo, as
well as to persons that it hires in the future, but will not be able to do so until it can generate materially increased revenue.
Until then, the Company is subject to the risk that Mr. Picazo or persons that it may hire in the future will seek employment
elsewhere. The Company has adopted its 2022 Equity Incentive Plan (see “Incentive Plan”) and may explore the adoption of
plans that will enable it to reward and retain the loyalty of Mr. Picazo and other employees through awards of share-based
compensation, such as stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units.
Incentive Plan
General Information
On July 20, 2022, the Board
adopted, and the shareholders approved, the 2022 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”), which provides for the grant
of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, unrestricted stock, restricted stock units, and performance awards to directors,
officers, employees and consultants (“Grantees”). The Incentive Plan is administered by the Board, which has the authority,
among other things, to select eligible persons to receive awards and determine the terms of awards.
The Company will recognize
as share-based compensation expense all share-based payments to Grantees over the requisite service period (generally the vesting period)
in its consolidated statements of income based on the fair values of the awards that are ultimately expected to vest. As a result, for
most awards, recognized share-based compensation expense will be reduced for estimated forfeitures prior to vesting, primarily based initially
on the judgment of management and thereafter, estimated forfeitures will be reassessed in subsequent periods based on facts and circumstances.
As no awards were made under the Incentive Plan during the periods covered by the consolidated financial statements included in this Report,
no expense for share-based compensation was recorded therein.
23
The Company adopted the Incentive
Plan because it believes that long-term incentives for Grantees will be a significant factor in generating returns for its shareholders
based upon the Incentive Plan’s ability to focus on long-term performance. By providing grantees with opportunities to acquire a
meaningful equity stake in the Company, it can better align their interests with those of its shareholders and create value for them.
The Company expects to make
periodic awards to its executive officers, employees and consultants, as well as awards in connection with promotions or new hires, the
occurrence of significant events or to promote retention of employees.
Awards will generally be
subject to time- or performance-based vesting over periods determined by the Board. Performance-based goals will be determined by the
Board. We believe that performance-based awards will encourage Grantees to achieve key strategic objectives and maximize value creation
for our shareholders.
No awards have been made
as of the date of this Report.

The Vita Agreement .
On May 1, 2024, Vita Biotech Research LLC (“Vita”)
and Alpha Research Institute LLC (“Alpha”), the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, entered into a Master Research Agreement
(the “Vita Agreement”), under which Vita engaged Alpha to conduct several clinical trials for the Vita for the purpose of
collecting and providing medical data to be used in the creation of vitamins, nutraceuticals and all other general medicinal development,
as long as doing so is within the legal parameters permitted in Texas and Colombia and other countries, determined by one or both of the
parties.
Under this agreement, Alpha is required to have
at least one of its physicians serve as the principal investigator for each collection initiative, with one or more subinvestigators assigned
thereto. No physician shall serve as principal investigator or subinvestigator without Alpha’s consent. The Institution shall cause
each principal investigator and each subinvestigator to conduct the collection Initiatives in strict adherence to the relevant protocol.
Alpha will establish the terms under which confidential information will be shared and protected. Alpha will make the principal investigator
and all subinvestigators, employees, contractors, and agents of Alpha who are to perform any work in connection with a collection initiative
aware of the obligations contained in the Vita Agreement and the applicable work orders and will bind them thereto. Vita is solely responsible
for developing protocols.
Because the data recollected from biospecimens
is experimental and may have unknown characteristics, Alpha is obligated to use prudence and reasonable care in their use, handling, storage,
transportation, disposition, and containment and has agreed that it will be legally responsible for the data collected from biospecimens
until the Vita or a downstream researcher takes custody of them, in accordance with a work order. Because the collection and transfer
of biospecimens and associated data is highly sensitive, Alpha has warranted that biospecimens have been or will be collected, processed,
tracked, stored, de-identified and transported in a manner appropriate to ensure compliance with the ethical regulations and guidelines
established by the Declaration of Helsinki (2013), the recommendations of the International Society for Biological and Environmental Repositories,
all requirements of an IRB, all applicable international and national (including state and local) laws, rules, regulations, ethical standards,
including applicable privacy and patient confidentiality laws that exist where Alpha operates. Alpha will require the Principal Investigator
or applicable Subinvestigators to report any adverse events experienced by a subject as a result of his participating in a collection
initiative to both parties within forty-eight (48) hours of learning of such event and to be recorded.
Vita will pay Alpha $50,000 monthly, payment to
be made within 30 days of receipt of the invoice (issued after all patients have been collected). All payments are contingent upon acceptance
of the biospecimens and associated data. Termination
The Vita Agreement commenced on May 1, 2024, and
has a term of 4 months. It will automatically renew for additional 4-month terms unless either party gives notice of termination at least
30 days before the end of the then current term.
A copy of the Vita Agreement is annexed to this
Report as Exhibit 10.15 and the description of its provisions is qualified in its entirety by reference thereto.

resolutions authorizing the issuance of 125,000,000 shares of Common Stock to Jose Torres Torres in compensation for his services as secretary
of the Company for the year ended May 31, 2024, and like amounts on May 31, 2025, May 31, 2026, and May 31, 2027, in compensation for
such services during the years then ended, if he is serving as secretary on those dates.
Advances
The Company has from time to time. received advances
from Dante Picazo, its chief executive officer, and Henry Levinski, its former vice president. All of these advances are non-interest-bearing
and have no set maturity date. The Company expects to repay these advances when funds become available. During the years ended May 31,

owed to Mr. Picazo and Mr. Levinski’s estate were $12,585 and $97,063, respectively.
Apartment Lease
On September 3, 2023, Messrs. Picazo Levinski
entered into a lease for 1,400 square feet in Houston, Texas, at 1625 Main St, Houston, Texas, the term of which commenced on September
15, 2023, and expired on September 14, 2024, at a rent of $3,164 per month and made a portion of these premises available to the Company
for use as office space, for which the Company paid them $2,817 per month. The Company believes that the rental represents the fair market
value of the space rented and that the amount that Messrs. Picazo Levinski is charging the Company for its use of a portion of the area
occupied by them is proportional to the total area rented by them.
Director Independence
OTC Markets Group Inc. defines “independent
director” as a person other than an executive officer or employee of a company or any other person having a relationship which,
in the opinion of the Board, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out their responsibilities as a director.
The persons who are not considered independent for purposes of this definition are (i) a director who is, or at any time during the
past three years was, employed by the company; (ii) a director who accepted or has a family member who accepted any compensation from
the company in excess of $120,000 during any fiscal year within the three years preceding the determination of independence, other than
compensation for board or board committee service; compensation paid to a family member who is an employee (other than an executive officer)
of the company or benefits under a tax-qualified retirement plan, or non-discretionary compensation or (iii) a director who is the family
member of a person who is, or at any time during the past three years was, employed by the Company as an executive officer.
Inasmuch as all of the directors of the Company
are employed by the Company as its officers, none of them is an independent director.
A director is not considered independent if he
is also an executive officer or employee of the corporation.
Compensation Committee
The Company does not have a standing compensation
committee or a committee performing similar functions because the Board believes that, in light of the Company’s early stage of
development and the fact that its compensation structure is not complex, such a committee is not presently warranted. Accordingly, the
whole Board participates in considering executive compensation and will do so if, in the future, directors are compensated for their services
as such.
