REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To
the Members of the Board of Directors of
Legacy
Education Inc.
Opinion
on the Financial Statements
We
have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Legacy Education Inc. (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2024 and
2023, and the related consolidated income statements, consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity, and consolidated
cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended June 30, 2024, 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 June 30, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two years ended June
30, 2024, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
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 audit 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.

Note
2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principals
Principal
of Consolidation
The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of HDMC and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, CCC and Integrity. All significant
intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
(“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 financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to
such estimates and assumptions include the assumptions used in the evaluation of the Company’s distinct performance
obligations, the valuation of equity instruments and allowance for credit losses related to accounts receivable.
Reclassifications
Certain
amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications
had no effect on reported consolidated net income.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. These investments
are stated at cost, which approximates fair value.
Letter
of Credit and Restricted Cash
In
October 2018, Integrity received a notice from the U.S. Department of Education (“ED”) requiring Integrity to post a letter
of credit in the amount of $ 138,977 due to the deficient composite score for the year ended December 31, 2017. During the fiscal year
ended June 30, 2020, the Company received notice from ED permitting the Company to decrease the letter of credit to $ 98,382 . Integrity
maintained passing scores on its composite score since 2019. The letter of credit is secured by cash on deposit with the issuing bank
and was extended through August 2023, when the ED released the Company from the letter of credit requirement.
Under
Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-18, Statements of Cash Flows – Restricted Cash, a statement of cash
flows explaining the change during the period in the total cash, cash equivalents, and amount generally described as restricted cash
or restricted cash equivalents is required. The accompanying balance sheets as of June 30, 2024 and 2023 have been presented in accordance
with the guidance provided by ASU 2016-18 .
Property
and Equipment
Property
and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method. Normal repairs
and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Expenditures that materially extend the useful life of an asset are capitalized. Depreciation
is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Furniture and fixtures, machinery, computer
equipment, and vehicles generally have estimated useful lives of ten , seven , four , and five years , respectively. Leasehold improvements
are depreciated over the shorter of their lease term or their useful life.
Leases
In
February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) in order to increase transparency and comparability among organizations
by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for those leases classified as operating leases under current
GAAP. ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee should recognize a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use
asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term on the balance sheet. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2021, using a modified retrospective approach and early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted
ASU 2016-02 on July 1, 2022.
The
Company has elected to apply the short-term scope exception for leases with terms of 12 months or less at the inception of the lease
and will continue to recognize rent expense on a straight-line basis. As a result of the adoption, on July 1, 2022, the Company recognized
a lease liability of approximately $ 5.7 million, which represented the present value of the remaining minimum lease payments using an
estimated incremental borrowing rate of 3.98 % . As of July 1, 2022, the Company recognized a right-to-use asset of approximately $ 5.3
million. Lease expense did not change materially as a result of the adoption of ASU 2016-02.
Goodwill
and Intangibles
Goodwill
represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair market value of the net assets (including intangibles) acquired on December
31, 2019 and January 15, 2019. The Company has implemented the Business Combinations Topic of the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other.
Goodwill,
tradename, and accreditation are deemed to have an indefinite life, and course curriculum has a definite life of approximately 18 years.
Goodwill and indefinite life intangible assets are not amortized but are subject to, at a minimum, annual impairment tests. The Company
expenses costs to maintain or extend intangible assets as incurred.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant
Accounting Principals (Continued)
The
Company reviews intangible assets (with a definite life), excluding goodwill, accreditation and tradenames, for impairment when events
or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable. We measure the recoverability of these assets by comparing
the carrying amounts to the future undiscounted cash flows that the assets are expected to generate. If the carrying value of the assets
are not recoverable, the impairment recognized is measured as the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value.
There were no impairments for the periods presented.
The
Company tests goodwill, accreditation and trade names for impairment at least annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the asset may be impaired. There were no goodwill, accreditation or trade names impairments for the periods presented.
The
Company amortizes intangible assets with definite lives on a straight-line basis.
Long-Lived
Assets
The
Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets for impairment, other than goodwill, whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by
a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to undiscounted future net cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If such
assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets
exceeds the fair value of the assets. Fair value estimates are based on assumptions concerning the amount and timing of estimated future
cash flows. The Company had no long-lived asset impairments as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Revenue
Recognition
Revenue
is recognized when control of promised goods or services is transferred to the Company’s customers in an amount of consideration
to which the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The Company follows the five steps approach for
revenue recognition under ASC 606: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract,
(iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize
revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies a performance obligation.
The
Company identifies a contract for revenue recognition when there is approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties
and payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and the collectability of consideration is probable. The Company
evaluates each contract to determine the number of distinct performance obligations in the contract, which requires the use of judgment.
The Company’s contracts include promises for educational services and course materials which are distinct performance obligations.
Tuition
revenue is primarily derived from postsecondary education services provided to students. Generally, tuition and other fees are paid upfront
and recorded in contract liabilities in advance of the date when education services are provided to the student. A tuition receivable
is recorded for the portion of tuition not paid in advance. In some instances, installment billing is available to students which reduces
the amount of cash consideration received in advance of performing the service. The contractual terms and conditions associated with
installment billing indicate that the student is liable for the total contract price, therefore mitigating the Company’s exposure
to losses associated with nonpayment. Tuition revenue is recognized ratably over the instruction period. The Company generally uses the
time elapsed method, an input measure, as it best depicts the simultaneous consumption and delivery of tuition services. Revenue associated
with distinct course materials is recognized at the point of time when control transfers to the student, generally when the materials
are delivered to the student. Revenue associated with lab services is recognized over the period of time when the service is performed.
The
Company’s refund policy may permit students who do not complete a course to be eligible for a refund for the portion of the course
they did not attend. Refunds generally result in a reduction of deferred revenue during the period that the student drops or withdraws
from a class.
The
transaction price is stated in the contract and known at the time of contract inception, as such there is variable consideration for
situations when a student drops from a program based on the Company’s refund policy and additional charges if a student requires
additional hours to complete the program beyond the contracted end date. The Company believes that its experience with these situations
is of little predictive value because the future performance of students is dependent on each individual and the amount of variable consideration
is highly susceptible to factors outside of the Company’s influence. Accordingly, no variable consideration has been included in
the transaction price or recognized as income until the constraint has been eliminated. Revenue is allocated to each performance obligation
based on its standalone selling price. Any discounts within the contract are allocated across all performance obligations unless observable
evidence exists that the discount relates to a specific performance obligation or obligations in the contract. The Company generally
determines standalone selling prices based on prices charged to students.
The
Company excludes from revenue taxes assessed by a governmental authority as these are agency transactions collected on their behalf from
the customer. Significant judgments include the allocation of the contract price across performance obligations, the methodology for
earning tuition ratably over the instruction period, estimates for the amount of variable consideration included in the transaction price
as well as the determination of the impact of the constraints preventing the variable consideration from being recognized in revenue.

Allowance
for Credit Losses
The
Company records an allowance for credit losses for estimated losses resulting from the inability, failure or refusal of its students
to make required payments, which includes the recovery of financial aid funds advanced to a student for amounts in excess of the student’s
cost of tuition and related fees. The Company determines the adequacy of its allowance for doubtful accounts based on an analysis of
its historical bad debt experience, current economic trends, and the aging of the accounts receivable and student status. The Company
applies reserves to its receivables based upon an estimate of the risk presented by the age of the receivables and student status. The
Company writes off account receivable balances of inactive students at the earlier of the time the balances were deemed uncollectible,
or one year after the revenue is generated. Bad debt expense is recorded as a general and administrative expense in the accompanying
statements of operations. The Company performs an analysis annually to determine which accounts are uncollectable and then writes them
off.

Company pays or credits refunds within 45 days of a student’s cancellation or withdrawal for students who have completed 60 % or
less of the period of attendance based on a pro rata calculation. Once the student has completed more than 60 % of a period of attendance,
all Title IV funds are considered earned and no refunds are due to ED.
Advertising
The
Company expenses advertising cost as incurred. Advertising costs amounted to $ 4,124,485 and
$ 3,589,432 for the
years ended June 30, 2024, and 2023, respectively.
Share-Based
Compensation
The
Company utilizes ASC 718, Stock Compensation, related to accounting for share-based payments and, accordingly, records compensation
expense for share-based awards based upon an assessment of the grant date fair value for stock options and restricted stock awards. The
Company estimates the fair value of stock-based compensation awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of
the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense over the requisite service periods in the Company’s
consolidated statements of operations. The Company estimates the fair value of stock-based compensation awards using the Black-Scholes
model. This model requires the Company to estimate the expected volatility and value of its common stock and the expected term of the
stock options, all of which are highly complex and subjective variables. The expected life was calculated based on the simplified method
as described by the SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 110, Share-Based Payment. The Company’s estimate of expected volatility was
based on the volatility of peers. The Company has selected a risk-free rate based on the implied yield available on U.S. Treasury securities
with a maturity equivalent to the expected term of the options. The Company accounts for forfeitures upon occurrence.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
Company’s financial instruments primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts
payable and accrued liabilities, deferred, unearned tuition, debt and finance lease obligations. The
carrying values of the Company’s financial instruments approximate fair value.
FASB
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure s (“ASC 820”) establishes a framework for all fair value measurements
and expands disclosures related to fair value measurement and developments. ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received
to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
ASC
820 requires that assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
Level
1 — Quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets or observable inputs;
Level
2 — Significant other observable inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data; and
Level
3 — Significant unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data.
Concentration
of Credit Risk
A
substantial portion of revenues and ending accounts receivable at June 30, 2024 and 2023 are a direct result of the Company’s participation
in Financial Student Aid (“FSA”) programs, which represents a primary source of student tuition. The FSA programs are subject
to political budgetary considerations. There is no assurance that funding will be maintained at current levels. The FSA programs are
subject to significant regulatory requirements. Any regulatory violation could have a material effect on the Company.

2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principals (Continued)
The
Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in various financial institutions. Accounts at these institutions are insured by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $ 250,000 . The Company performs ongoing evaluations of these institutions to limit concentration
risk exposure. The Company maintains cash balances in excess of these limits from time to time.
As
of June 30, 2024 and 2023, $ 2.15
and $ 6.1 million, respectively, was maintained in a redeemable money market account bearing interest at approximately 4.88 %
per annum.
Commitments
and Contingencies
The
Company accrues for a contingent obligation when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount is reasonably estimable.
When the Company becomes aware of a claim or potential claim, the likelihood of any loss exposure is assessed. If it is probable that
a loss will result and the amount of the loss is estimable, the Company records a liability for the estimated loss. If the loss is not
probable or the amount of the potential loss is not estimable, the Company will disclose the claim if the likelihood of a potential loss
is reasonably possible and the amount of the potential loss could be material. Estimates that are particularly sensitive to future changes
include tax, legal, and other regulatory matters, which are subject to change as events evolve, and as additional information becomes
available during the administrative and litigation process. The Company expenses legal fees as incurred.
Income
Taxes
GAAP
requires management to evaluate tax positions taken by the Company and recognize a tax liability if the Company has taken an uncertain
position that is more likely than not would be sustained upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service. Management has analyzed the
Company’s tax positions and believes there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition
of a liability or disclosure in the financial statement.
The
Company accounts for income taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred tax assets and liabilities for future tax consequences
of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the temporary differences are expected to be realized.
The
Company expenses penalties and interest related to federal and state income taxes as incurred. Penalties, if any, are included in general
and administration expenses on the income statement. The estimated federal and state effective tax rates are 21 % and 8.84 % , respectively.
Emerging
Growth Company
The
Company has elected to be an emerging growth company as defined under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (“JOBS
Act”). Included with this election, the Company has also elected to use the provisions within the JOBS Act that allow
companies that go public to continue to use the private company adoption date rules for new accounting policies. The Company will
remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of (i) the last day of the Company’s fiscal year following the fifth
anniversary of the closing of the Company’s initial public offering of its securities, (ii) the last day of the fiscal year
(a) in which the Company
total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion or (b) in which the Company is deemed to be a large accelerated filer
under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and (iii) the date on which the Company
has issued more than $1.0 billion of non-convertible debt in any three-year period .
Earnings
Per Share
ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) with a reconciliation
of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS computation. Basic
EPS excludes dilution. Diluted EPS is calculated using the treasury stock method, and reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common
stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the
entity.

following table provides a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators used to determine basic and diluted net income per common

In June 2016, the FASB issued
ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”).
ASU 2016-13 provides guidance for recognizing credit losses on financial instruments based on an estimate of current expected credit losses
model. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Recently, the FASB issued the final ASU to delay
adoption for smaller reporting companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. We adopted ASU 2016-13 on July 1, 2023 and
it did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
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. This ASU amends the guidance
on convertible instruments and the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity, and also improves and amends
the related earnings per share guidance for both Subtopics. The ASU will be effective for smaller reporting companies for annual reporting
periods beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within those annual periods and early adoption is permitted. We are currently
evaluating the impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

Operating
Leases
The
Company leases its instructional facilities under non-cancelable operating leases expiring at various dates through 2026. In most cases,
the facility leases require the Company to pay various operating expenses of the facilities in addition to base monthly lease payments.
In certain cases, the Company has options available under its leases to renew, and certain leases contain ordinary rental escalations
on the space. Rent expense for the certain leases described above is recorded evenly over each lease term. The difference between rent
expense recorded and the amount paid is reflected as deferred rent on the accompanying balance sheets for those leases with rent escalation
clauses.
Because
the rate implicit in each lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate to determine the present
value of the lease payments. The Company has elected the practical expedient to use the risk-free rate as its incremental borrowing rate.

13 - Share-Based Compensation Plans
Stock
Options
The
Company utilizes ASC 718, Stock Compensation, related to accounting for share-based payments and, accordingly, records
compensation expense for share-based awards based upon an assessment of the grant date fair value for stock options and restricted
stock awards. The Black Scholes option pricing model was used to estimate the fair value of the options granted. This option pricing
model requires a number of assumptions, of which the most significant are: expected stock price volatility, the expected pre-vesting
forfeiture rate, and the expected option term (the amount of time from the grant date until the options are exercised or expire).
The Company estimated a volatility factor utilizing a weighted average of comparable published volatilities of its peers. The Company applied
the simplified method to determine the expected term of stock-based compensation grants.
In
prior years, the Company had granted time vested options to purchase shares of common stock with exercise prices ranging from $ 0.52 - $ 1.80
on the date of grant by the Board. These options vest ratably over a period of three years and expire ten years from the date of grant

Note
14 - Income Tax
The
Company has deferred tax assets and liabilities that reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts
of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Deferred tax assets are subject
to periodic recoverability assessments. Realization of the deferred tax assets, net of deferred tax liabilities is principally dependent
upon achievement of projected future taxable income.
Based
upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets
are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences.
The Company has no valuation allowance as of June 30, 2024.
On
December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”) was signed into law. For businesses, the Act reduces the corporate
federal tax rate from a maximum of 35 % to a flat 21 % rate. The rate reduction took effect on January 1, 2018. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences
are expected to be recovered or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted
though income tax expense.
The
components of income tax expense (benefit) are as follows:

15 - Other Commitments and Contingency
Regulatory
In
order for students to participate in Title IV federal financial aid programs, the Company is required to maintain certain standards of
financial responsibility and administrative capability. In addition, the Company is accredited with ACCET and ABHES and approved by other
agencies and must comply with rules and regulations of the accrediting body. As a result, the Company may be subject from time to time
to audits, investigations, claims of noncompliance or lawsuits by governmental agencies, regulatory bodies, or third parties. While there
can be no assurance that such matters will not occur and if they do occur will not have a material adverse effect on these financial
statements, management believes that the Company has complied with all regulatory requirements as of the date of the financial statements.
The
Company is subject to extensive regulation by federal and state governmental agencies and accrediting bodies. In particular, the Higher
Education Act of 1965, as amended (the “Higher Education Act”), and the regulations promulgated thereunder by ED, subject
the Company to significant regulatory scrutiny on the basis of numerous standards that schools must satisfy in order to participate in
the various federal student financial assistance programs under Title IV of the Higher Education Act.
Borrowers
Defense to Repayment
On
October 28, 2016, ED published its new regulations with an effective date of July 1, 2017. The new regulations allow a borrower to assert
a defense to repayment on the basis of a substantial misrepresentation, any other misrepresentation in cases where certain other factors
are present, a breach of contract or a favorable non-default contested judgment against a school for its act or omission relating to
the making of the borrower’s loan or the provision of educational services for which the loan was provided. In addition, the financial
responsibility standards contained in the new regulations establish the conditions or events that trigger the requirement for an institution
to provide ED with financial protection in the form of a letter of credit or other security against potential institutional liabilities.
Triggering conditions or events include, among others, certain state, federal or accrediting agency actions or investigations. The new
regulations also prohibits schools from requiring that students agree to settle future disputes through arbitration. Management believes
no misrepresentations have occurred nor has any agency actions or investigations occurred as of the date of these financial statements.
Composite
Score
As
described above, ED requires institutions to meet standards of financial responsibility. ED deems an institution financially responsible
when the composite score is at least 1.5. The Company’s composite score was 3.0 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. The Company’s
composite score calculation for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 has not been completed as of the date of these financial statements
and is due on December 31, 2024.
90/10
Disclosure
The
Company derives a substantial portion of its revenues from student financial aid received by its students under the Title IV programs
administered by ED pursuant to the Higher Education Act. To continue to participate in the student financial aid programs, the Company
must comply with the regulations promulgated under the Higher Education Act. The regulations restrict the proportion of cash receipts
for tuition and fees from eligible programs to not more than 90% from Title IV programs (the “90/10 revenue test”). If an
institution fails to satisfy the test for one year, its participation status becomes provisional for two consecutive fiscal years. If
the test is not satisfied for two consecutive years, eligibility to participate in Title IV programs is lost for at least two fiscal
years. Using ED’s cash-basis, regulatory formula under the 90/10 Rule, as in effect for its 2023 fiscal year, HDMC, CCC and Integrity
derived 84.53%,75.48% and 88.14% for its 90/10 revenue from Title IV program funds, respectively. The 90/10 calculation for fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 has not yet been completed as of the date of these financial
statements and is due on December 31, 2024.
Litigation
The
Company does not believe it is a party to any other pending or threatened litigation arising from services currently or formerly performed
by the Company. To the extent that there may be other pending or threatened litigation that management is unaware of, they do not believe
there to be any possible claims that could have a material adverse effect on their business, results of operations or financial condition.
Note
16 – Subsequent Events

sublease agreement amending a lease originally entered into January 21, 2016, as amended, to increase usage at the premises to 37,914
square feet at a facility located in Salinas, CA expiring July 31, 2032 with a base rent of $ 64,051 monthly, and such additional rent
as may be applicable including a proportional share of utilities and operating costs. Concurrent with the execution of the lease the Company
remitted an additional deposit of $ 37,750 .
