ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, the Board has determined these were deemed not effective and has undertaken to address the shortcomings by: a. adding additional and more qualified staff; b. asking for specific direction from the company’s accountants and auditors; c. reviewing structure and procedures implemented by similarly situated publicly held companies; and d. changes in process prior to any further acquisition or financing activity. Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013 Framework). The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the interim or annual financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. The Company’s management notes that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2020. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The material weaknesses identified during our annual audit for 2020 were (i) lack of segregation of duties, (ii) lack of sufficient resources with SEC, generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), especially with regards to equity based transactions and tax accounting expertise; (iii) inadequate security over information technology, and (iv) lack of formal Control procedures related to the approval of related party transactions. Accordingly, management has determined that these control deficiencies constitute material weaknesses. 87 Table of Contents Because of these material weaknesses, management concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020. This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding our internal controls over financial reporting. The disclosure contained under this Item 9A was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only the disclosure under this Item 8A in this annual report. We believe that the material weaknesses as reported will eventually be fully remediated, upon being properly capitalized to hire the proper personnel for segregation of duties and SEC and GAAP accounting knowledge. Management’s Report on Disclosure Controls and Procedures The Company’s management has identified what it believes are material weaknesses in the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. The deficiencies in our disclosure controls and procedures included (i) lack of segregation of duties and (ii) lack of sufficient resources to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits to the SEC are recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (iii) lack of formal Control procedures related to the approval of related party transactions. The Company intends to take corrective action to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company pursuant to the reports that the Company files or submits to the SEC is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during our fourth quarter ended December 31, 2020 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

(3) Consists of 2,164,047 shares of common stock and options to purchase an additional 2,500,000 shares of common stock. (4) Based solely on a Schedule 13D filed by Anglo Irish Management LLC (“Anglo”), Anglo received 1,025,514 shares of common stock as interest earned on shares of the Series X Preferred Stock, and owns 12,503 shares of Series X Preferred. Daniel Hollis is the Manager of Anglo Irish Management LLC and its business address is 9057A Selborne Lane, Chatt Hills, GA 30268. In addition, Anglo granted Mr. Juan Carlos Iturregui a revocable trust to vote the shares of Series X Preferred Stock and common stock owned by Anglo as its proxy. The proxy is revocable at the option of Anglo. (5) Based on 196,180,503 shares of common stock outstanding as of March 22, 2021 and 26,227 shares of Series X Preferred Stock outstanding. Each share of Series X Preferred Stock entitled the holder thereof to 20,000 votes per share and will vote together with the common stock, representing 524,540,000 votes. Percent of Total Voting Power for each beneficial owner is derived by dividing (i) the sum of the common stock votes and number of votes that the Series X Preferred Stock owned by such beneficial owner is entitled by (ii) the Total Voting Power. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC and includes general voting power and/or investment power with respect to securities. Shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of options or warrants that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of the record date, and shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of other securities currently convertible or convertible within 60 days, are deemed outstanding for computing the beneficial ownership percentage of the person holding such securities but are not deemed outstanding for computing the beneficial ownership percentage of any other person. Under the applicable SEC rules, each person’s beneficial ownership is calculated by dividing the total number of shares with respect to which they possess beneficial ownership by the total number of outstanding shares. In any case where an individual has beneficial ownership over securities that are not outstanding but are issuable upon the exercise of options or warrants or similar rights within the next 60 days, that same number of shares is added to the denominator in the calculation described above. Because the calculation of each person’s beneficial ownership set forth in the “Percentage Class” column of the table may include shares that are not presently outstanding, the sum total of the percentages set forth in such column may exceed 100%. 98 Table of Contents Equity Compensation Plan Information On December 31, 2020, the Compensation Committee of the Board approved the Mitesco Inc. 2021 Omnibus Securities and Incentive Plan, or the “2021 Plan”. The 2021 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, stock appreciation rights, performance stock awards, performance cash awards, and other stock-based awards, collectively, the “stock awards.” Stock awards may be granted under the 2021 Plan to our employees, directors and consultants.
