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, 2025.
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, 2025. 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, 2025:
·
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, 2025.
22
Chan g es in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company’s internal
control over financial reporting during the quarter ended May 31, 2024, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely materially
to affect, its internal control over financial reporting.

and a director of the Company since the merger of PUI into the company on December 19, 2019, and was the co-founder of PUI, serving as
one of its directors and as its chief executive officer and president from its incorporation in 2009 to that merger.
He has 45 years of experience in operating and
growing from concept to profitability, originating marketing and branding efforts, leading to initial public offerings for three companies.

Hotel Administration, AMP in Ithaca, N.Y., and is fluent in three languages.
Mr. Picazo’s control of the Company through
his ownership of its capital stock, together with his knowledge of the Pharmacology University Business and his extensive experience in
international business and finance, led to the conclusion that he should serve as a member of the Board.
John Jones

the Board to fill the vacancy in the Board created by the death of Henry Levinski on December 29, 2023, and as the Company’s treasurer.
He has 35 years of experience as a senior executive
in the food services industry.
Mr. Jones’ ownership of a significant portion
of the Company’s capital stock, together with his extensive experience in business, and his willingness to assist the Company in
raising equity capital, led to the conclusion that he should serve as a member of the Board.

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.

the Company's principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing
similar functions by posting such information on its website at www.cbih.net or by filing a Current Report on Form 8-K in relation to
such amendment or waiver.
Clawback Policy
The Board has adopted a Clawback Policy that requires
that, in the event of an Accounting Restatement, the Company will reasonably promptly recover Erroneously Awarded Compensation after an
Accounting Restatement from executive officers. An “Accounting Restatement” is an accounting restatement due to the material
noncompliance of the Company with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, 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 compensation received by him as an executive officer that exceeds the
amount of incentive-based compensation that he otherwise would have received had it been determined based on the restated amounts, computed
without regard to any taxes paid. The Company has delivered no compensation that is subject to recovery under this policy.
Insider Trading Policy
The Board has adopted an Insider Trading Policy
to promote compliance by officers, directors, employees and certain other persons who are aware of material nonpublic information about
the Company with laws that prohibit them from trading in its securities or providing material nonpublic information to persons who may

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 of 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 operations 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.
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.
26
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.
Provisions of the Incentive
Plan
The following is a description of the material
terms of the Incentive Plan, which is not a complete description and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Incentive Plan,
which is filed as an exhibit to this Report.
Authorized shares . Subject to adjustment
in certain events, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued in satisfaction of awards is 600,000,000. As of the
date of this Report, no awards had been granted.
Eligibility . The Board may select
participants from among employees and directors of and consultants to the Company.
Types of awards; vesting . The Incentive
Plan provides for various awards, including incentive stock options (“ISOs”), nonstatutory stock options, stock appreciation
rights, restricted and unrestricted stock and stock units, performance awards and cash. The Board has the authority to determine the vesting
schedule applicable to each award and to accelerate the vesting or exercisability of any award.
Termination of awards .
Unless otherwise provided in an award agreement,
upon termination of employment or service, a participant’s options and SARS will terminate and the participant will have no further
right, title or interest therein, the shares of Common Stock subject thereto or any consideration in respect thereof. If employment or
service terminates otherwise than for cause, the Participant may exercise his Option or SAR to the extent vested, but only within the
following period or, if applicable, such other period provided in the Award Agreement.
Except as otherwise provided in the Award Agreement
or other written agreement, if a Participant’s continuous service terminates for any reason, (i) the Company may receive through
a forfeiture condition or a repurchase right any or all of the shares of Common Stock held by the participant under his restricted stock
award that have not vested as of the date of such termination as set forth in such agreement and (ii) any portion of his RSU award that
has not vested shall terminate upon such termination and he shall have no further right, title or interest in the RSU award, the shares
of Common Stock issuable pursuant thereto the RSU Award or any consideration in respect thereof the RSU.
Except as provided in an award agreement, in the
event of a dissolution or liquidation of the Company, outstanding awards (other than those consisting of vested and outstanding shares
of Common Stock not subject to a forfeiture condition or the Company’s right of repurchase) shall terminate prior to the completion
of such dissolution or liquidation, and the shares of Common Stock subject to the Company’s repurchase rights or subject to a forfeiture
condition may be repurchased or reacquired by the Company, provided that the Board may cause some or all expired or terminated Awards
to become fully vested, exercisable or no longer subject to repurchase or forfeiture before the dissolution or liquidation is completed
but contingent on its completion.
Transferability .
Options and SARs may not be transferred to financial
institutions for value and the Board may impose such additional limitations on the transferability of an option or SAR as it determines.
In the absence of any such determination, the following restrictions shall apply (provided that, except as explicitly provided in the
Incentive Plan, an option or a SAR may not be transferred for consideration and, if an option is an ISO, it may be deemed to be a nonstatutory
stock option as a result of such transfer):
An option or SAR shall not be transferable, except
by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and shall be exercisable during the lifetime of a participant only by him (provided
that, in certain cases, the Board may permit the transfer of an Option or SAR in a manner that is not prohibited by applicable tax and
securities laws upon the Participant’s request, including to a trust if the Participant is considered to be the sole beneficial
owner of such trust (as determined under Section 671 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and
applicable state law) while such Option or SAR is held in such trust, provided that the Participant and the trustee enter into a transfer
and other agreements required by the Company.
27
Subject to the execution of transfer documentation
in a format acceptable to the Company and subject to the approval of the Board or a duly authorized officer, an Option or SAR may be transferred
pursuant to a domestic relations order.
Corporate transactions. In the event
of certain corporate transactions (including merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, reincorporation, stock dividend,
dividend in property other than cash, large nonrecurring cash dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, liquidating dividend, combination
of shares, exchange of shares, change in corporate structure), the Board shall appropriately and proportionately adjust (a) the class
or classes and the maximum number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Plan, (b) the class or classes and the maximum number of shares
that may be issued pursuant to the exercise of ISOs and (c) the class or classes and the number of securities and exercise price, strike
price or purchase price of Common Stock subject to outstanding Awards.
Acceleration. The Board may accelerate
the time at which an award may first be exercised or the time during which an award or any part thereof will vest.
Change in control . In the event
of a change in control of the Company (as defined in the Incentive Plan), the Board shall have discretion (i) settle awards for an amount
of cash or securities equal to their value, where in the case of options and SARs, the value of such Awards, if any, shall be equal to
their in-the-money spread value (if any), as determined in the sole discretion of the Board, (ii) arrange for the surviving corporation
or acquiring corporation (or its parent company) to assume or continue the award or to substitute a substantially similar award, (iii)
arrange for the assignment of any reacquisition or repurchase rights held by the Company in respect of Common Stock issued pursuant to
the award to the surviving corporation or acquiring corporation (or its parent company), (iv) modify the terms of awards to add events,
conditions or circumstances (including termination of employment within any specified period after a change in control) upon which the
vesting of such awards or lapse of restrictions thereon shall accelerate or deem any performance conditions satisfied at target, maximum
or actual performance through closing or provide for the performance conditions to continue after closing, (v) arrange for the lapse,
in whole or in part, of any reacquisition or repurchase rights held by the Company with respect to awards, (vi) cancel or arrange for
the cancellation of awards, to the extent not vested or not exercised prior to the effective time of the change in control, in exchange
for such cash consideration, if any, as the Board may consider appropriate, or(vii) provide that, for at least 20 days prior to the
change in control, any Options or SARs that would not otherwise become exercisable prior thereto shall be exercisable as to all shares
of Common Stock subject thereto, contingent upon and subject to the occurrence of the change in control, and that any options or SARs
not exercised prior to the consummation of the change in control shall terminate and be of no further force and effect as of the consummation
thereof.
Amendment and termination . The Board
may amend the Incentive Plan or outstanding awards, except that it may not materially impair the rights and obligations under any award
except with the written consent of the affected participant.
Retirement, Resignation or Termination Plans
We have or sponsor no plan, whether written or
verbal, that would provide compensation or benefits of any type to an executive upon retirement or any plan that would provide payment
for retirement, resignation, or termination as a result of a change in control of our company or as a result of a change in the responsibilities
of an executive following a change in control of our company.
Pension Benefits
The Company has no plan under which retirement
payments and benefits, or payments and benefits that will be provided primarily following retirement may be or have been or may be paid.
Nonqualified Defined Contribution and Other
Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans

plan or arrangement, whether written or unwritten, that provides for payment to any of its executive officers at, following or in connection
with any termination, including without limitation resignation, severance, retirement or constructive termination, or a change in control
of the Company or a change in any of their responsibilities.

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters.
The following table provides information with
respect to the beneficial ownership of Common Stock by the following (i) each of our named executive officers, (ii) each of our directors,
(ii) all directors and executive officers as a group, (iii) each person known to the Company to beneficially own more than 5% of Common
Stock (excluding the Selling Stockholders) and (iv) the Selling Stockholders. The amounts and percentages of shares of Common Stock beneficially
owned are reported as required by the SEC’s rules respecting the determination of beneficial ownership of securities. Under these
rules, a person is deemed to be a “beneficial owner” of a security if he has or shares voting power or investment power, which
includes the power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of such security and is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any securities
of which he has a right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days after the determination date. Securities that can be so acquired
are deemed to be outstanding for purposes of determining such person’s ownership percentage, but not for purposes of determining
any other person’s ownership percentage. Under these rules, more than one person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same
securities and a person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities in which he has no economic interest.

which commenced on September 15, 2023, and expired 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 paid them $2,817 per month. On September 3, 2024, Mr.
Picazo entered into a new lease for these premises. The term of the lease began on September 15, 2024, and expired on August 14, 2025.
The lease has not been renewed and under its terms, it has been renewed on a month-to-month basis. Messrs. Picazo and Levinski made a
portion of these premises available to the Company for use as office space under the earlier lease, and Mr. Picazo has continued to do
so under the later lease, for which the Company has paid them and him $2,817 per month. The Company believes that these rentals represent
the fair market value of the space rented and that the amount that Messrs. Picazo and Levinski have charged 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.
31
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.

The Company was billed $12,000 and $15,000 by
VMCPA for audit-related fees for the years ended May 31, 2025, and May 31, 2024, respectively. Audit-related fees include fees for assurance

Other Fees

by VMCPA during the last two fiscal years that were not included in the above paragraphs.
Preapproval Policy
None of the above services was approved by an

by its principal accountant.
