shares revenues generated by Mahaser with respect to e-commerce sales through the online retail platform in the United States of America.
On July 20, 2023, the Company through its wholly owned
subsidiary, Greenwich International Holdings, a Costa Rica corporation (“Greenwich”), entered into an Amended and Restated
Joint Venture (the “2023 Tokenize Agreement”) with Magic Internacional Argentina FC, S.L. (“Magic”) and GBT Tokenize

3, 2023, GBT Tokenize entered its first commercial transaction to date through the sale of the Avant-AI! technology that been developed
by GBT Tokenize, based on the Technology Portfolio.
The unaudited condensed financial statements (“CFS”)
are prepared by the Company, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments,
consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which in the opinion of management, are necessary to fairly state the Company’s
financial position, the results of its operations, and cash flows for the periods presented.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying CFS were prepared in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
Stock Split
On October 26, 2021, the Company effectuated a 1
for 50 reverse stock split. The share and per share information has been retroactively restated to reflect this reverse stock
split.
In July 2, 2022 the Company filed a preliminary information
statement to the stockholders of record (the “Record Date”) in connection with certain actions to be taken by the written
consent by stockholders holding a majority of the voting stock of the Company, dated as of June 28, 2022.
●
To

shares of common stock, par value $ 0.00001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company from 2,000,000,000 shares to 10,000,000,000
shares. This action concluded on August 11, 2022:
(i)

of up to 1-for-500 (the “Reverse Stock Split”), and (ii) authorize the filing of an amendment to the Company’s Articles
of Incorporation to implement the Reverse Stock Split and any other action deemed necessary to effectuate the Reverse Stock Split, without
further approval or authorization of stockholders, at any time prior to December 31, 2023. This action was not commenced by the Company’s
board.

Note 2 – Going Concern
The accompanying CFS have been prepared assuming the
Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $ 314,847,007 and has a working capital
deficit of $ 30,698,032 as of June 30, 2023, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company’s ability to continue as a going
concern is dependent upon its ability to generate profitable operations in the future and/or obtain the necessary financing to meet its
obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management has plans to seek additional
capital through some private placement offerings of debt and equity securities. These plans, if successful, will mitigate the factors
which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These CFS do not include any adjustments
relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result
from this uncertainty.
Note 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of CFS in conformity with U.S. GAAP
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the CFS and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company
regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience
and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments
about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources.
The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there
are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected. Significant estimates
in the accompanying CFS include valuation of derivatives and valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying CFS include the accounts of the Company
and its subsidiaries; the Company’s 50% owned subsidiaries GBT Tokenize Corp. (active) and GBT BitSpeed Corp (currently inactive);
the Company’s 50% owned subsidiary, Gopher Protocol Costa Rica Sociedad De Responsabilidad Limitada (currently inactive), a wholly
owned subsidiary, AltCorp Trading LLC, a Costa Rica company (“AltCorp” currently inactive) and Greenwich International Holdings,
a Costa Rica corporation (“Greenwich” currently inactive). All significant intercompany transactions and balances were eliminated.
For entities determined to be VIEs, an evaluation
is required to determine whether the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company evaluates its economic interests in the entity specifically
determining if the Company has both the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic
performance (“the power”) and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant
to the VIE (“the benefits”). When making the determination whether the benefits received from an entity are significant, the
Company considers the total economics of the entity, and analyzes whether the Company’s share of the economics is significant. The
Company utilizes qualitative factors, and, where applicable, quantitative factors, while performing the analysis.
In addition, the Company’s variable interests
in Mahaser obligate the Company to absorb deficits and provide it with the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant
to Mahaser. As a result of this analysis, the Company concluded it is the primary beneficiary of Mahaser and therefore consolidates the
balance sheets, results of operations and cash flows of Mahaser. The Company performs a qualitative assessment of Mahaser on an ongoing
basis to determine if it continues to be the primary beneficiary.
7
Cash Equivalents
For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash
equivalents include time deposits, certificate of deposits, and all highly-liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months
or less. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company did no t have any cash equivalents.
Marketable Securities
The Company accounts for investment securities in
accordance with ASC Topic 321, Investments – equity securities. Marketable equity securities are reported at FV based on
quotations available on securities exchanges with any unrealized gain or loss being reported as a component of other income (expense)
on the statement of operations. The portion of marketable equity security expected to be sold within 12 months of the balance sheet date
is reported as a current asset. These publicly traded equity securities are valued using quoted prices and are included in Level 1.
Inventory
Inventory consists of electronic product ready for
sale online on e-commerce platforms. It is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value and all inventories were returned product
from online customers. We value our inventory using the weighted average costing method. Our Company’s policy is to include as a
part of inventory any freight incurred to ship the product from our contract vendors to our warehouses. Outbound freight costs to our
customers are considered period costs and reflected in selling, general and administrative expenses. We regularly review inventory and
consider forecasts of future demand, market conditions and product obsolescence.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company evaluates all of its agreements to determine
if such instruments have derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that
are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its FV and is then re-valued at each reporting date,
with changes in the FV reported in the statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses a
weighted-average Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation
dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity,
is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or
non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance
sheet date. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s only derivative financial instrument was an embedded conversion
feature associated with convertible notes payable due to certain provisions that allow for a change in the conversion price based on a
percentage of the Company’s stock price at the date of conversion.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
For certain of the Company’s financial instruments,
including cash, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and short-term debt, the carrying amounts approximate their FV due to their short
maturities.
FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and
Disclosures , requires disclosure of the FV of financial instruments held by the Company. FASB ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments ,
defines FV, and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of FV measurement that enhances disclosure requirements
for FV measures. The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for receivables and current liabilities each qualify
as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of their FV because of the short period of time between the origination of such
instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined
as follows:
8
●
Level
1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
●
Level
2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical
or similar assets in inactive markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for
substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
●
Level
3 inputs to the valuation methodology use one or more unobservable inputs which are significant to the FV measurement.
The Company analyzes all financial instruments with
features of both liabilities and equity under FASB ASC Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity , and FASB ASC Topic 815,
Derivatives and Hedging .
For certain financial instruments, the carrying amounts
reported in the balance sheets for cash and current liabilities, including convertible notes payable, each qualify as a financial instrument,
and are a reasonable estimate of their FV because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected
realization and their current market rate of interest.
The Company uses Level 2 inputs for its valuation
methodology for derivative liabilities as their FV were determined by using the Black-Scholes-Merton pricing model based on various assumptions.
The Company’s derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect FV at each period end, with any increase or decrease in the FV being
recorded in results of operations as adjustments to FV of derivatives.
At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company
identified the following liabilities that are required to be presented on the balance sheet at FV:

Treasury Stock
Treasury stock is recorded at cost. The re-issuance
of treasury shares is accounted for on a first in, first-out basis and any difference between the cost of treasury shares and the re-issuance
proceeds are charged or credited to additional paid-in capital.
Revenue Recognition
Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No.
2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ Topic 606 ”), became effective for the Company on
January 1, 2018. The Company’s revenue recognition disclosure reflects its updated accounting policies that are affected by this
new standard. The Company applied the “modified retrospective” transition method for open contracts for the implementation
of Topic 606. The Company had no significant post-delivery obligations, this new standard did not result in a
material recognition of revenue on the Company’s accompanying CFS for the cumulative impact of applying this new standard. The Company
made no adjustments to its previously-reported total revenues, as those periods continue to be presented in accordance with its historical
accounting practices under Topic 605, Revenue Recognition .
9
Revenue from providing IT consulting services
are recognized under Topic 606 in a manner that reasonably reflects the delivery of its services to customers in return
for expected consideration and includes the following elements:
●
executed contracts with the Company’s customers that it believes are legally enforceable;
●
identification of performance obligations in the respective contract;
●
determination of the transaction price for each performance obligation in the respective contract;
●
allocation the transaction price to each performance obligation; and
●
recognition of revenue only when the Company satisfies each performance obligation.
These five elements, as applied to each of the Company’s IT revenue
category, is summarized below:
●
IT consulting services - revenue is recorded on a monthly basis as services are provided.
These five elements, as applied to each of the Company’s
license revenue category, is summarize below:
●
License services – the one-time related party licensing income recorded as other income upon agreement is executed and services are provided and recognized over the term of five years.
E-Commerce sales –
●
Identify the contract(s) with a customer. ASC 606 defines a contract as “an agreement between two or more parties that creates enforceable rights and obligations”. Since this is an e-commerce sale on the Amazon of eBay websites, the Company just followed the general terms on Amazon or eBay websites and the customer entered into a contract with the Company based on the product listed on the Amazon or eBay websites;
Identify the performance obligations in
the contract. According to the contract, the Company is responsible for operation exclusively. The Company is entitled to all revenue
which is being paid by Amazon or eBay into a designated bank account and the Company is responsible for all product acquisitions as well
as shipments. The only performance obligations were the electronic products that were listed on Amazon or eBay websites and the Company
determined each order is one single obligation;
Determine the transaction price. The transaction price set to
be the listed price on the Amazon or eBay websites.;
Allocation the transaction price to the performance obligations
in the contract.; and
Recognize revenue when the Company satisfies a performance obligation.
Sales are being recognized upon shipment.
Unearned revenue
Unearned revenue represents the net amount received
for the purchase of products that have not seen shipped to the Company’s customers. The Company has $ 0 and $ 48,921 of unearned revenue
at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
Contract liabilities
10
On February 22, 2022, the Company entered into
an Intellectual Property License and Royalty Agreement with Touchpoint Group Holdings, Inc. (“Touchpoint” or
“TGHI”) pursuant to which the Company granted TGHI a worldwide license for its technologies for five years in the
domains of Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence enabled mobile technologies pertaining to the Company’s
digital currency technology (the “Technology”). GBT will charge TGHI royalties based on actual uses by TGHI of the
Technology resulting from revenue attributable to the use, performance or other exploitation of the Technology, to the extent
applicable, after deducting any taxes that the Company may be required to collect, and deducting any international sales, goods and
services, value added taxes or similar taxes which the Company is required to pay, if any, excluding deductions for taxes on the
Company net income. TGHI agreed to issue the Company 10,000,000 shares
of common stock of TGHI in the FV of $ 50,000 as
a onetime fee for the Company entering this Intellectual Property License and Royalty Agreement, which was booked contract
liabilities and amortized over the 5 five-year term. The Company has yet to earn any royalty income in relation to this agreement as
of June 30, 2023. The contract liabilities as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $ 36,444 and $ 41,444 , respectively.
Variable Interest Entity
On February 18, 2022, the
Company, effective March 1, 2022 entered into a Revenue Sharing Agreement (“RSA”) with Mahaser LTD. (“Mahaser”)
pursuant to which the Company shares in revenues generated by Mahaser e-commerce sales through the online retail platform in the United
States of America. Mahaser owns an e-commerce platform as a store which is the legal, exclusive owner of Ravenholm Electronics. The Company
will operate the e-commerce platform and entitled to 95% for all revenue generated by and received by Mahaser from March 1, 2022 through
December 31, 2022. The RSA provides that the Company will be entitled to appoint a manager to Mahaser. As consideration, the Company will
pay Mahaser $ 100,000 no later than March 1, 2022 and issue Mahaser 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s restricted common
stock. The Company shall have no obligations to make any further payments to Mahaser. For any further extensions, the Company will have
the option to extend the RSA for annual payment of $ 200,000 , which can be payable with the Company’s shares of common stock payable
based on 20 days VWAP prior to issuance. On March 16, 2022 the parties entered into Amendment No. 1 to the to the RSA, where all
consideration to be paid or issued to Mahaser will be deferred until such time where the e-commerce platform generated in cumulative revenue
of $1,000,000.
On March 31, 2022, the parties
entered into Amendment No. 2 to the RSA, where Mahaser agreed to pay the Company 100% per year for all revenue generated by and received
by seller from the sales by Amazon within the United States of America as follows from March 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022. The Company
will be responsible for 100% of the cost of goods sold as well. In addition, the Company is entitled to earn 100% revenues and cost of
goods sold of the period from February 1, 2022 to February 28, 2022. On January 1, 2023 the company extended their partnership to December
31, 2023.
The Company evaluated whether
it has a variable interest in Mahaser, whether Mahaser is a VIE and whether the Company has a controlling financial interest in Mahaser.
The Company concluded that it has variable interests in Mahaser on the basis of GBT has 100% control over the JV/revenue sharing, and
as such should consolidate the JV into its books and records as it assigned 100% financial responsibility. Mahaser’s equity at risk,
as defined by GAAP, is considered to be insufficient to finance its activities without additional support, and, therefore, Mahaser is
considered a VIE.
The following table summarizes
the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities of Mahaser included in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2023
and as December 31, 2022 (after elimination of intercompany transactions and balances):

Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance
with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes . ASC 740 requires a company to use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes,
whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable
temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax
bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some
portion, or all of, the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects
of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
12
Under ASC 740, a tax position is recognized as a benefit
only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination
being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized
on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. The Company has
no material uncertain tax positions for any of the reporting periods presented and its current on all its tax filings federal and state
until 2021 inclusive.
Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share
Earnings per share is calculated in accordance with
ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share . Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is based on the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding. Diluted EPS assumes that all dilutive securities are converted. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock
method. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance,
if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. Due to the
net income incurred potentially dilutive instruments would be anti-dilutive. Accordingly, diluted loss per share is the same as basic
loss for all periods presented. The following potentially-dilutive shares were excluded from the shares used to calculate diluted earnings
per share as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Management’s Evaluation of Subsequent
Events
The Company evaluates events
that have occurred after the balance sheet date of June 30, 2023, through the date which the CFS are issued. Based upon the review, other
than described in Note 18 – Subsequent Events, the Company did not identify any recognized or non-recognized subsequent events that
would have required adjustment or disclosure in the CFS.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06 , Debt—Debt
with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic
815-40)—Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. ASU 2020-06 reduces the number
of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. For convertible instruments with conversion features
that are not required to be accounted for as derivatives under Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging , or that do not result in
substantial premiums accounted for as paid-in capital, the embedded conversion features no longer are separated from the host contract.
ASU 2020-06 also removes certain conditions that should be considered in the derivatives scope exception evaluation under Subtopic 815-40, Derivatives
and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity , and clarify the scope and certain requirements under Subtopic 815-40. In
addition, ASU 2020-06 improves the guidance related to the disclosures and earnings-per-share (EPS) for convertible instruments and contract
in entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 is effective for public business entities that meet the definition of a SEC filer, excluding
entities eligible to be smaller reporting companies as defined by the SEC, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including
interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Board specified that an entity should adopt the guidance
as of the beginning of its annual fiscal year. The Company adopted this ASU on the CFS in the year ended December 31, 2021. The adoption
had no material impact on the CFS for the period ended March 31, 2023.
13
On April 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-04, “ Earnings
Per Share (Topic 260), Debt— Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718),
and Derivatives and Hedging— Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications
or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options” (“ ASU 2021-04 ”) to clarify
the accounting by issuers for modifications or exchanges of equity-classified warrants. The new ASU is available here and effective for
all entities in fiscal years starting after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this ASU on the CFS in
the year ended December 31, 2021. The adoption had no material impact on the CFS for the period ended March 31, 2023.
Management does not believe that any recently issued,
but not yet effective, accounting standards could have a material effect on the accompanying CFS. As new accounting pronouncements are
issued, we will adopt those that are applicable under the circumstances.
Note 3 – Cash, Restricted Cash, and
Cash held in Trust
Cash consist of amounts held
as bank deposits, amounts held in escrow and highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less.
From time to time, we may
maintain bank balances in interest bearing accounts in excess of the $ 250,000 currently insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation for interest bearing accounts (there is currently no insurance limit for deposits in noninterest bearing accounts). We have
not experienced any losses with respect to cash. Management believes our Company is not exposed to any significant credit risk with respect
to its cash.
Note 4 – Marketable Securities
TGHI Agreement
On January 28, 2022, the Company entered
into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Marko Radisic (the “Seller”) and Touchpoint Group Holdings, Inc. (“TGHI”)
pursuant to which the Company acquired 10,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Touchpoint Preferred”)
from the Seller for $ 125,000 . The Touchpoint Preferred is convertible into 10,000,000 shares of common stock of Touchpoint.
On February 22, 2022, the Company entered into an Intellectual Property License and Royalty Agreement with TGHI pursuant to
which the Company granted TGHI a worldwide license for its technologies for five years in the domains of Internet of Things (IoT) and
Artificial Intelligence enabled mobile technologies pertaining to the Company’s digital currency technology (the “Technology”).
GBT will charge TGHI earned royalties based on actual uses by TGHI of the Technology resulting from revenue attributable to the use, performance
or other exploitation of the Technology, to the extent applicable, after deducting any taxes that the Company may be required to collect,
and deducting any international sales, goods and services, value added taxes or similar taxes which the Company is required to pay, if
any, excluding deductions for taxes on the Company net income. TGHI agreed to issue the Company 10,000,000 shares of common
stock of TGHI in the FV of $ 50,000 as a one-time fee for the Company entering this Intellectual Property License and Royalty Agreement,
which was booked contract liabilities and amortized over the five-year term. The Company has yet to earn any royalty income under this
agreement as of June 30, 2023.
TGHI converted the Touchpoint Preferred into 10,000,000 shares
of common stock of Touchpoint on February 23, 2022 resulting in the Company owning 20,000,000 shares of common stock of Touchpoint

a Nevada corporation which the Company owns 50% of the outstanding shares of common stock, entered into a series of agreements with GTX
Corp (“GTX”) and various note holders of GTX pursuant to which Tokenize acquired a convertible promissory note of GTX of $ 100,000 (the
“GTX Notes”). In addition, GBT Tokenize acquired 76,923 (GBT acquired 5,000,000 in the original deal,
where GTX to perform a corporate action of 1:65 reverse split on September 20, 2022) shares of common stock of GTX for $ 150,000 -

may be converted into shares of common stock on a one-time basis at a conversion price of $ 0.01 per share. The remaining 50% of the
principal must be paid in cash. The closing occurred on April 12, 2022.
GTX changed its name into Metalert Inc. on or about
September 20, 2022.
On September 30, 2022, GBT Tokenize, loaned MetAlert
Inc., a Nevada corporation (f/k/a GTX Corp.) (“MetAlert”) $ 90,000 . For such loan, MetAlert provided Tokenize a promissory

S.A.
On June 17, 2019, the Company,
AltCorp Trading LLC, a Costa Rica company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“AltCorp”), GBT Technologies, S.A.,
a Costa Rica company (“GBT-CR”) and Pablo Gonzalez, a shareholder’s representative of GBT-CR (“Gonzalez”),
entered into and closed an Exchange Agreement (the “GBT Exchange Agreement”) pursuant to which the parties exchanged certain
securities. In accordance with the Exchange Agreement, AltCorp acquired 625,000 shares of GBT-CR representing 25% of its issued
and outstanding shares of common stock from Gonzalez for the issuance of 20,000 shares of Series H Convertible Preferred Stock
of the Company and a Convertible Note in the principal amount of $10,000,000 issued by the Company (the “Gopher Convertible
Note”) as well as the transfer and assignment of a Promissory Note payable by Gopher Protocol Costa Rica Sociedad De Responsabilidad
Limitada to the Company of $5,000,000 dated February 6, 2019 (of which the underlying security for this Promissory Note is 30,000,000
restricted shares of common stock of Mobiquity Technologies, Inc. (“Mobiquity”) and 60,000,000 restricted shares of common
stock of Mobiquity.
The Gopher Convertible Note
bears interest of 6% and is payable at maturity on December 31, 2021. At the election of Gonzalez, the Gopher Convertible Note
can be converted into a maximum of 20,000 shares of Series H Preferred Stock. Each share of Series H Preferred Stock is convertible, at
the option of the holder but subject to the Company increasing its authorized shares of common stock, into such number of shares of common
stock of the Company as determined by dividing the Stated Value ($500 per share) by the conversion price ($500 per share). The
Series H Preferred Stock has no liquidation preference, does not pay dividends and the holder of Series H Preferred Stock shall be entitled
to one vote for each share of common stock that the Series H Preferred Stock may be convertible into. Upon conversion of the Gopher
Convertible Note and the 20,000 shares of Series H Preferred Stock, Gonzalez would be entitled to less than 50% of the resulting outstanding
shares of common stock of the Company following conversion in full and, as a result, such transaction is not considered a change of control.
On May 19, 2021, the Company,
entered into a Mutual Release and Settlement Agreement and Irrevocable Assignment of Note Balance Principal and Accrued Interest (the
“Gonzalez Agreement”) with third party, GBT-CR, IGOR 1 Corp and Gonzalez. Pursuant to the Gonzalez Agreement, without any
party admission of liability and to avoid litigation, the parties had agreed to (i) extend the GBT Convertible Note maturity date to December

to the GBT Convertible Note with 15% discount to the market price during the 20 trading day period ending on the latest complete trading
day prior to the conversion date and (iii) provided for an assignment of the GBT Convertible Note by Gonzalez to a third party.
GBT-CR is in the business of the strategic management
of BPO (Business Process Outsourcing) digital communications processing for enterprises and startups, distributed ledger technology development,
AI development and fintech software development and applications.
The Company accounted for its investment in GBT-CR
using the equity method of accounting; however, in 2020, the Company owned less than 20% after GBT-CR issued additional shares to other
investors therefore exercised no control over GBT-CR; therefore, this investment is currently accounted for under the cost method. Moreover,
on March 19, 2020, California Governor Gavin Newsom issued a stay-at-home order to protect the health and well-being of all Californians
and to establish consistency across the state in order to slow the spread of COVID-19. California was therefore under strict quarantine
control and travel has been severely restricted, resulting in disruptions to work, communications, and access to files (due to limited
access to facilities). The stay-at-home order was lifted in California only on January 25, 2021. As such, the Company was unable to access
or to contact GBT-CR on an on-going basis, and cannot get information about GBT-CR.

of intellectual property to GBT Tokenize and issue to GBT Tokenize 1,000 shares of Series I Preferred Stock (the “Series I Stock”)
with a stated value of $ 35,000 per share which is convertible into common stock of the Company by dividing the stated value by the conversion
price of $ 0.0035 , which, if converted in full would result in the issuance of 10 billion shares of common stock of the Company. Further,

and its 100 % ownership of Greenwich to Magic to secure its Technology Portfolio investment.

by the lowest one trading price for the common stock during the 20-trading day period ending on the latest complete trading day
prior to the conversion date. Since the conversion price will vary based on the Company’s stock price, the beneficial conversion
feature associated with this note is accounted for as a derivative liability. Stanley had agreed to restrict its ability to
convert the Debt and receive shares of common stock such that the number of shares of common stock held by it and its affiliates
after such conversion or exercise does not exceed 4.99 % of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock. During

this convertible note and also converted $ 126,003 of accrued interest into the principal balance. During the year ended December
31, 2021, Gonzalez assigned all his accrued balances of $ 424,731 to Stanley in a private transaction that the Company is not
part to (See Note 10). On January 2, 2023, the Company issued a convertible promissory note to Stanley for its credit balances
in the principal amount of $ 750,000 . The convertible promissory note bears interest of 10 % and is payable at maturity on June 30,

equal to 85 % of the lowest trading price during the 20-day period preceding the date of conversion. The Company recorded a gain
on debt extinguishment of $ 408,034 at the issuance date.
As of June, 30, 2023

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Going Concern
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial
statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has an
accumulated deficit of $314,847,007 and has a working capital deficit of $30,698,032 as of June 30, 2023, which raises substantial
doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company’s ability to continue as
a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate profitable operations in the future and/or obtain the necessary financing
to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management has plans
to seek additional capital through some private placement offerings of debt and equity securities. These plans, if successful,
will mitigate the factors which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded
asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.
Our cash and cash equivalent were $44,068 and
$106,639 at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Cash provided by (used in) operating activities during the period
ended June 30, 2023 was $(217,196) compared to $235,328 during the same period in 2022. The amount provided by operating activities
for the period ended June 30 2023 was primarily related to a net loss of $15,545,476 and offset by amortization of debt discount
of $268,423, and change in FV of derivative liability of $13,028,486. Our working capital position changed by going from a working
capital deficit of $18,522,046 at December 31, 2022 to a working capital deficit of $30,698,032 at June 30, 2023.
Cash flows used in investing activities were
nil during the period ended June 30, 2023, compared to $275,000 for the same period in 2022. The decrease is due to the Stock Purchase
Agreement with Marko Radisic and Touchpoint Group Holdings, Inc. and the Intellectual Property License and Royalty Agreement with Touchpoint
Group Holdings, Inc. from last year.
Cash provided from financing activities for
the period ended June 30, 2023 was $154,625, compared to $349,002 for the same period in 2022. The change was primarily due to
an increase in proceeds from convertible notes of $92,150, and an increase in proceeds from related party of $578,893 and repayments
to related party of $549,564 and a repayment of convertible note payable $59,004. Cash from financing activities for the period
ended June 30, 2022, was due to an increase in proceeds from common stock of $231,865 and proceeds from convertible notes of $200,000
and reduce by issuance of note receivable of $100,000.
We sustained net loss of $15,545,476 for the six months
ended June 30, 2023. In addition, we had a working capital deficit of $30,698,032 and accumulated deficit of $314,847,007 at June 30,
2023.
Dividends
The Company has not yet adopted any policy
regarding payment of dividends. No cash dividends have been paid or declared since the Date of Inception.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES
ABOUT MARKET RISK
As a Smaller Reporting Company, the Company
is not required to include the disclosure under this Item.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the
period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management,
including Mansour Khatib, who serves as our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the
design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer has concluded
that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the applicable period to ensure that the information
required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated
and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosures.
38
As a smaller reporting
company, with revenues stemming from recent acquisitions and a lack of profitability, the Company does not have the resources to
install dedicated staff with deep expertise in all facets of SEC disclosure and GAAP compliance, and does not employ enough accounting
staff to have proper separation of duties. As is the case with many smaller reporting companies, the Company will continue to consult
with its external auditors and attorneys as it relates to new accounting principles and changes to SEC disclosure requirements.
In order to correct this material weakness, the Company engaged a consultant with expertise in SEC disclosure and GAAP compliance.
The Company found that this approach worked well in the past and believes it to be the most cost-effective solution available for
the foreseeable future. The Company will conduct a review of existing sign-off and review procedures as well as document control
protocols for critical accounting spreadsheets. The Company will also increase management’s review of key financial documents
and records.
As a smaller reporting
company, the Company does not have the resources to fund sufficient staff to ensure a complete segregation of responsibilities
within the accounting function. However, Company management does review, and will increase the review of, financial statements
on a monthly basis, and the Company’s external auditor conducts reviews on a quarterly basis. These actions, in addition
to the improvements identified above, will minimize any risk of a potential material misstatement occurring.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial
Reporting
There were no changes
in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2023, that materially affected,
or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
MANAGEMENT’S
INTERIM REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Our management, consisting
of our Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive and Financial Officer), is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate
internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f)
and 15d-15(f), is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officers
and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability
of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission and includes those policies and procedures that:
●
Pertain to
the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our
assets;
●
Provide reasonable assurance that transactions
are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management
and directors; and
●
Provide reasonable assurance regarding
prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use of disposition of our assets that could have a material effect
on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal
control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. 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. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations.
Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement
preparation and presentation.
39
Our management assessed the effectiveness of
our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2023. Based on this assessment, management believes that as of June
30, 2023, our internal control over financial reporting is not effective based on those criteria.
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL
REPORTING
There were no changes during our last fiscal
year that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Legal Proceedings
From time to time, the Company may be involved
in various litigation matters, which arise in the ordinary course of business. There is currently no litigation that management
believes will have a material impact on the financial position of the Company.
On or around January 30, 2019, RWJ Advanced
Marketing, LLC, Greg Bauer, and Warren Jackson sued the Company and multiple third and related parties in Superior Court of the
State of California - County of Los Angeles, General District in connection with the acquisition of UGO in September 2017. The
case number is 19STCV03320 (the “Original Lawsuit”). The complaint in the Original Lawsuit alleges breach of contract,
among other causes of action. The Company answered the complaint and filed a cross-complaint against the plaintiffs in the case
and third parties on or around February 15, 2019. On or about September 10, 2020, the Company through its agent of service was
“served” with a complaint (the Company contested service) that was recently filed against the Company and third parties
by Robert Warren Jackson and Gregory Bauer in Los Angeles Superior Court Case No.: 20STCV32709 (“Second Lawsuit”).
In the Original Lawsuit filed, the court rejected the plaintiff’s claims that they were filing a purported quasi-derivative
lawsuit. As such, in this current litigation, the plaintiff is now again claiming the action is a derivative lawsuit. On October
13, 2020, the Second Lawsuit was removed by other defendants into Central District of California (CASE NO. 2:20−cv−09399−RGK−AGR).
On February 2, 2021 the Central District of California dismissed the entire Second Lawsuit based on “demand futility”.
In the Original lawsuit, the Company filed a cross complaint against the plaintiff and other third parties. Recently, the court
has scheduled various hearings and a trial date set for December 27, 2021 which was later continued by the Court to September 28,
2022. It was the Company’s intention to dividend its holdings of its wholly owned subsidiary Ugopher services Corp. (“UGO”).
As UGO is the main dispute in the litigations described above, the Company has elected to sell UGO to a third-party effective July
1, 2020. On September 17, 2020, the Company terminated Greg Bauer as consultant (resulting from the sale of UGO), which he confirmed
in writing. On or about June 14, 2021 the Company stipulated with plaintiff that all third parties will be released and plaintiff
may file a new first amendment complaint that will name only the Company. As such, all third parties other than prior transfer
agent of the Company have been dismissed from this litigation.
Following the sale of UGO, the Company noticed
third parties (including SURG, via its asset manager) to wire the UGO funds to its new bank account. SURG never answered the notice.
SURG is the clearing house for UGO. The Company noticed certain third parties that it intends to take legal actions to resolve
this issue. On November 12, 2020 the Company filed a complaint in the United States District Court – District of Nevada -
Case 2:20-cv-02078 against RWJ, Mr. Bauer, Mr. Jackson and against W.L. Petrey Wholesale Company Inc for fraud, breach of contract,
Unjust Enrichment and other claims. On January 28, 2022 the court awarded the Company with injunction against RWJ defendants, where
all fee funds generating from resale should be deposited into GBT blocked account, and therefore RWJ defendants cannot use these
funds without court order.
The Company entered
into the Confidential Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release (“RJW Agreement”) by and between RWJ Advanced Marketing,
LLC, Robert Warren Jackson, Gregory Bauer (collectively the “RJW Parties”) and W.L. Petrey Wholesale Company, Inc.,
(“Petrey”) on one hand; and GBT Technologies Inc., on behalf of itself and its agents (collectively the GBT Parties”),
on the other hand. The Company the RJW Agreement effective September 26, 2022 with final signatures delivered to the Company on
or about October 5, 2022. Pursuant to the RJW Agreement, the parties have agreed to settle, release, and otherwise resolve all
known or unknown claims between them and agreed to jointly stipulate, move, or otherwise dismiss the lawsuits filed in the United
States District Court of Nevada (Case No. 2:20-cv- 02078), in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Los Angeles,
Central District (Case Nos. 19STCV03320 and 20STCV32709),
40
and in the United
States District Court of the Central District of California (Case No. 2:20-cv-09399-RGK-AGR) with prejudice. The parties agreed
and stipulated to release all funds currently being held in a blocked account of $19,809 with 50% distributed to the RWJ Parties
and 50% distributed the Company or its assignee. The Parties also entered into the InComm Assignment Agreement (“IAA”)
which assigned, transferred and conveyed all proceeds derived from the RWJ Parties’ agreements with Interactive Communications
International, Inc., and its affiliate Hi Technology Corp., including but not limited to that Master Distribution and Service Agreement
between Interactive Communications International, Inc. and Petrey d/b/a UGO-HUB dated August 29, 2016, as amended (collectively
referred to as the “InComm Proceeds”), and which shall divide the InComm Proceeds 90% to the Company or its assignee
and 10% to the RWJ Parties or their assignee. Finally, the Company agreed to pay $40,000 to the RWJ Parties or their assignee.
The Company accrued $49,847 expenses represent the final amounts due to the RJW Parties.
The Company under
a different settlement agreement with SURG, committed to assign the IAA. As such, on October 5, 2022 and as cumulation of all settlement
agreements the Company issued a request to SURG regarding release of certain escrow funds and the execution of an assignment of
rights as contemplated in the aforereferenced agreement.
On December 3, 2018, the Company entered into
a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with Discover Growth Fund, LLC (the “Investor”) pursuant to
which the Company issued a Senior Secured Redeemable Convertible Debenture (the “Debenture”) of $8,340,000. In connection
with the issuance of the Debenture and pursuant to the terms of the SPA, the Company issued a Common Stock Purchase Warrant to
acquire up to 225,000 shares of common stock for a term of three years (the “Warrant”) on a cash-only basis
at an exercise price of $100 per share with respect to 50,000 Warrant Shares, $75 with respect to 75,000 Warrant Shares and $50
with respect to 100,000 Warrant Shares. The holder may not exercise any portion of the Warrants to the extent that the holder would
own more than 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock immediately after exercise. The outstanding principal amount
may be converted at any time into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price equal to 95%
of the Market Price less $5 (the conversion price is lowered by 10% upon the occurrence of each Triggering Event – the current
conversion price is 75% of the Market Price less $5.00). The Market Price is the average of the 5 lowest individual daily volume
weighted average prices during the period the Debenture is outstanding. On May 28, 2019, the Investor delivered to the Company
a “Notice of Default and Notice of Sale of Collateral” (the “Notice”). On December 23, 2019, in arbitration
between the Company and the Investor, an Interim Award was entered in favor of the Investor. On January 31, 2020, the Company was
informed that a final award was entered (the “Final Award”). The Final Award affirms that certain sections of the Debenture constitute
unenforceable liquidated damages penalties and were stricken. Further, it was determined that the Investor was entitled to recovery
of their attorney’s fees. Consequently, the arbitrator awarded Investor an award of $4,034,444 plus interest of 7.25%
accrued from May 15, 2019 and costs of $55,613. On February 18, 2020, the Company filed a motion with the United States District
Court District of Nevada (the “Nevada Court”) to confirm the Final Award and a motion to consolidate Investor’s
application to confirm the Final Award filed in the U.S. District Court of the Virgin Islands (Case No: 3 :20-cv-00012-CVG-RM)
(the “Virgin Island Court”). On February 27, 2020, the Nevada Court denied the Company’s motion to confirm the
Final Award and motion to consolidate and further decided that the confirmation of the Final Award should be litigated in the Virgin
Island Court. As such, on February 27, 2020, the Company filed a Notice of Entry of Order as well as a Motion to Confirm the Arbitration
Award, address the outstanding issues regarding whether Investor’s rights are subordinated to other creditors and, thereafter,
oversee a commercially reasonable foreclosure sale (Case No: 3 :20-cv-00012-CVG-RM). It was the Company’s position that the
Final Award must first be confirmed and all questions regarding the rights of Investor relative to those of other creditors must
be determined before any foreclosure sale can proceed. It is further the position of the Company that the previously disclosed
foreclosure sale scheduled by Investor is being conducted in a commercially unreasonable manner and that if Discover proceeded
forward with the foreclosure sale it did so at its own risk. Nevertheless, on February 28, 2020, Investor advised that it conducted
a sale of the Company’s assets. As the date of this report Investor failed to present a deed of sale for the alleged sale
that allegedly took place as noticed. The Company filed with Virgin Island Court the motions disputing the validity of the alleged
sale. On July 28, 2020, Investor filed in the State of Nevada a motion for attorneys $48,844 and costs $716. The Company filed
an answer on August 11, 2020. On October 16, 2020, Investor motion for attorneys $48,844 and costs $716 was denied.
This case is still pending with the Federal court and the Court has not taken any substantive action in the matter as of the date
of this report.
41
On or about July 9, 2021 the Company filed
a lawsuit in District Court in Clack County Nevada – Department 19 (Case number A-21-837631-C) against Terry Taylor and TTSG
Holdings, Inc for breach of contract, breach of covenant of Good Faith and Fair Dealing, Unjust Enrichment and declaratory relief
for failure of providing consulting services per contract they entered. The Company is demanding the return of 240,000 shares issued,
return of the $5,000 payments, recission of the consulting agreement, and attorney’s fees and costs. As Terry Taylor and
TTSG Holdings failed to appear to a notice of deposition, the Company filed for a summary judgment. On January 20, 2023 the court
issued a $708,821 writ of execution against Terry Taylor and TTSG
Gregory Mancuso
and Rainer AG
On or about February
2, 2022, GBT was served with a First Amended Complaint (the “Complaint”) initiated by Gregory Mancuso and Rainer AG,
a Swiss corporation, Case No. 21SMCV01430, filed in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Los Angeles.
The Complaint names a number of different parties, including GBT, and asserts, among other things, claims for conversion, unjust
enrichment, breach of contract, and breach of implied covenant of fair dealing, which Plaintiffs allege arise out of a brokerage
agreement entered into between Plaintiff Rainer AG and co-defendant Consul Group re Dos Mil Veintiuno S.R.L (“Consul”).
GBT was sued under an alter ego theory of liability, and its only involvement in the above-referenced chain of events seems to
be that its shares were deposited with Rainer by Consul upon the opening of the brokerage account. GBT will be filling a demurrer
to the First Amended Complaint based on a variety of deficiencies with the First Amended Complaint, and will ask the Court to dismiss
the claims against GBT.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.

on the FV of the Company’s common stock. The share has been cancelled in subsequent period.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities
On December 3, 2018, the Company entered into
a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with Discover Growth Fund, LLC (the “Investor”) pursuant to
which the Company issued a Senior Secured Redeemable Convertible Debenture (the “Debenture”) in the aggregate face
value of $8,340,000. In connection with the issuance of the Debenture and pursuant to the terms of the SPA, the Company issued
a Common Stock Purchase Warrant to acquire up to 225,000 shares of common stock for a term of three years (the “Warrant”)
on a cash-only basis at an exercise price of $100.00 per share with respect to 50,000 Warrant Shares, $75.00 with respect to 75,000
Warrant Shares and $50.00 with respect to 100,000 Warrant Shares. The holder may not exercise any portion of the Warrants to the
extent that the holder would own more than 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock immediately after exercise. The
outstanding principal amount may be converted at any time into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion
price equal to 95% of the Market Price less $5.00 (the conversion price is lowered by 10% upon the occurrence of each Triggering
Event – the current conversion price is 75% of the Market Price less $5.00). The Market Price is the average of the 5 lowest
individual daily volume weighted average prices during the period the Debenture is outstanding. On May 28, 2019, the Investor delivered
to the Company a “Notice of Default and Notice of Sale of
42
Collateral” (the “Notice”). On December 23, 2019,
in arbitration between the Company and the Investor, an Interim Award was entered in favor of the Investor. On January 31, 2020,
the Company was informed that a final award was entered (the “Final Award”). The Final Award affirms that certain sections
of the Debenture constitute unenforceable liquidated damages penalties and were stricken. Further, it was determined that
the Investor was entitled to recovery of their attorney’s fees. Consequently, the arbitrator awarded Investor an award of
$4,034,444 plus interest of 7.25% accrued from May 15, 2019 and costs in the amount of $55,613. On February 18, 2020,
the Company filed a motion with the United States District Court District of Nevada (the “Nevada Court”) to confirm
the Final Award and a motion to consolidate Investor’s application to confirm the Final Award filed in the U.S. District
Court of the Virgin Islands (Case No: 3 :20-cv-00012-CVG-RM) (the “Virgin Island Court”). On February 27, 2020, the
Nevada Court denied the Company’s motion to confirm the Final Award and motion to consolidate and further decided that the
confirmation of the Final Award should be litigated in the Virgin Island Court. As such, on February 27, 2020, the Company filed
a Notice of Entry of Order as well as a Motion to Confirm the Arbitration Award, address the outstanding issues regarding whether
Investor’s rights are subordinated to other creditors and, thereafter, oversee a commercially reasonable foreclosure sale
(Case No: 3 :20-cv-00012-CVG-RM). It was the Company’s position that the Final Award must first be confirmed and all questions
regarding the rights of Investor relative to those of other creditors must be determined before any foreclosure sale can proceed.
It is further the position of the Company that the previously disclosed foreclosure sale scheduled by Investor is being conducted
in a commercially unreasonable manner and that if Discover proceeded forward with the foreclosure sale it did so at its own risk.
Nevertheless, on February 28, 2020, Investor advised that it conducted a sale of the Company’s assets. As the date of this
report Investor failed to present a deed of sale for the alleged sale that allegedly took place as noticed. The Company filed with
Virgin Island Court the motions disputing the validity of the alleged sale. On July 28, 2020, Investor filed in the State of Nevada
a motion for attorneys $48,844 and costs $716. The Company filed an answer on August 11, 2020. On October 16, 2020, Investor
motion for attorneys $48,844 and costs $716 was denied. This case is still pending with the Federal court and the Court
has not taken any substantive action in the matter as of the date of this report.
