CURRENT
OPERATIONS
Sales
and Distribution
The
Company’s flagship product is MOJO Pure Coconut Water. In addition to Pure Coconut Water, the Company produced Sparkling
Coconut Water, Coconut Water + Mango Juice, Coconut Water + Pineapple Juice, and Pure Organic Coconut Water in 2020. We seek to
grow the market share of our products by expanding our hybrid distribution network through the relationships and efforts of our
management and third-party partners an improved broker network, and new products and packaging in 2021. The company packages its
beverages in 100% recyclable, Eco-Friendly packaging that can be recycled infinite times and is not made from carbon oil-based
packaging. The packaging has a very low impact on the environment, and does not contribute to landfills and the pollution of our
bodies of water.
Production
The
Company has multiple sources for its production. The Company’s fruit sources are of high quality. The fruit is part of the
overall taste and quality of our products. Currently, the Company has multiple production facilities that it could source products
from, each of the facilities could supply our forecasted demand for 2021.
Competition
The
beverage industry is competitive. Competitors in our market compete for brand recognition, ingredient sourcing, product shelf
space, and e-commerce page rankings. Our competitors have similar distribution channels and retailers to deliver and sell their
products.
Government
Regulation
Within
the United States, beverages are governed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”). As such, it is necessary
for the Company to establish, maintain and make available for inspection records as well as to develop labels (including nutrition
information) that meet FDA requirements. The Company’s production facilities are subject to FDA regulation.
Employees
As
of December 31, 2020, the Company had two employees. The Company also uses the services of contractors, consultants and other
third-parties. We contract with food brokers to represent our products to specific specialized sales channels. We utilize the
services of direct sales and distribution companies that deliver and sell our products to their customers. We contract with manufacturing
facilities to produce our products and outsource the storage and transportation of our products.
CORPORATE
HISTORY AND DEVELOPMENT
The
Company was incorporated in 2007 and began producing MOJO branded products in 2016. MOJO Organics Inc is headquartered in Jersey
City, and our internet site is www.MojoOrganicsInc.com. MOJO’s stock is traded on the OTC Markets under the symbol MOJO.

ITEM
1A. RISK FACTORS
In
addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should consider the following factors, which could materially
affect our business, financial condition or results of operations in future periods. The risks described below are not the only
risks facing our Company. Additional risks not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially
adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations in future periods.
If
we are unable to expand our operations in the marketplace, our growth rate could be negatively affected.
Our
success depends in part on our ability to grow our business. We have adopted and implemented a strategic plan to increase awareness
of our products, secure additional distribution channels, and foster and strengthen our supply, manufacturing and distribution
relationships. Our strategic plan includes addressing changes in the market. There can be no assurance that we will achieve the
growth necessary to achieve our objectives.
We
could need additional capital in the future to expand our operations and execute our business objectives.
Should
we need additional capital to expand our operations, financing transactions may include the issuance of equity, debt securities,
and credit facilities.
The
challenges of competing with other beverage companies could result in reductions to our revenue and operating margins.
The
nonalcoholic beverage segment of the beverage industry is competitive. We compete with numerous beverage companies, including
those marketing similar products. All beverages companies are competing for stomach share on a daily basis which is approximately
64 oz. of fluid per day, per person. Our success depends on our ability to secure distribution channels for our products, our
ability to make consumers aware of our products and the appeal of our products to consumers.
Disruption
of supply, increases in costs or shortages of ingredients could affect our operating results.
Availability
of supply and the prices charged by the producers of production inputs used in our products can be affected by a variety of factors,
including the general demand by other buyers for the same fruits used by us in our products, and country politics and country
economics in the area in which our fruit is grown.
The
quality of fruit we seek trades on a negotiated basis, depending on supply and demand at the time of the purchase. An increase
in the price of any fruit that we use in our products will have a negative effect on our margins should we be unable to increase
our sales price. Higher energy costs may increase the cost of transporting our supplies. Changes in emission rules for maritime
vessels will likely increase costs of shipping our products. Conversely, lower fruit prices and lower energy prices will have
a positive result on transport and packaging costs.
3
We
use independent bottlers for the filling of our products and, as such, are subject to the bottler’s production and quality
control.
We
use independent bottlers for the production of our products. Accordingly, we are dependent on the bottlers and their ability to
meet production demands and to achieve product quality. We play an active roll in the production of our beverages, which includes
but is not limited to developing our formulations, maintaining control over the labeling and packaging of our beverages, independent
Underwriters Laboratories testing of our products for safety, and packaging and function of our packaging and correct FDA labeling.
We also review and monitor the safety certifications of the factories including their status with the United States Food and Drug
Administration. We also inspect the warehouses that our products are stored in, and monitor the trucking companies that deliver
our goods.
Litigation
and publicity concerning food quality, health claims, and other issues could expose us to significant liabilities.
The
packaged food industry can be adversely affected by litigation and complaints from customers and government authorities resulting
from product quality, health claims, allergens, illness, and injury. Adverse publicity about these allegations may negatively
affect the Company, regardless of whether the allegations are true. In addition, the food industry has been subject to a number
of claims based on the nutritional content of food products they sell, and disclosure and advertising practices. Due to the inherent
uncertainties of litigation and regulatory proceedings, we cannot predict the ultimate outcome of any such proceedings. An unfavorable
outcome will have an adverse impact on our business. In addition, any litigation or regulatory proceedings may result in substantial
costs.

7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Our
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is provided
in addition to the accompanying financial statements and notes to assist readers in understanding our results of operations, financial
condition and cash flows. MD&A is organized as follows:
●
Significant
Accounting Policies — Accounting policies that we believe are important to understanding the assumptions and judgments
incorporated in our reported financial results and forecasts.
●
Results
of Operations — Analysis of our financial results comparing the year ended December 31, 2020 to 2019.
●
Liquidity
and Capital Resources — Analysis of changes in our cash flows, and discussion of our financial condition and potential
sources of liquidity.
This
report includes a number of forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial
performance. Forward looking statements are often identified by words like: believe, expect, estimate, anticipate, intend, project
and similar expressions, or words which, by their nature, refer to future events. You should not place undue certainty on these
forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this annual report. These forward-looking statements are subject
to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or our predictions.
Significant
Accounting Policies
We
have prepared our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which
requires management to make significant judgments and estimates 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 expenses during
the reporting period. We base these significant judgments and estimates on historical experience and other applicable assumptions
we believe to be reasonable based upon information presently available. These estimates may change as new events occur, as additional
information is obtained and as our operating environment changes. These changes have historically been minor and have been included
in the financial statements as soon as they became known. Actual results could materially differ from our estimates under different
assumptions, judgments or conditions.
All
of our significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to our financial statements,
included elsewhere in this Annual Report. We have identified the following as our significant accounting policies and estimates,
which are defined as those that are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties, are the most pervasive and important
to the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations and could potentially result in materially different
results under different assumptions, judgments or conditions.
We
believe the following significant accounting policies reflect our more significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation
of our financial statements:
Use
of Estimates — The financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States (“GAAP”). Management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
6
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments — Our short-term financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts
payable and other liabilities, consist primarily of instruments without extended maturities. We believe that the fair values of
our current assets and current liabilities approximate their reported carrying amounts.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In
March 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2019-01, “Leases
(Topic 842): Codification Improvements”. The ASC aims to increase transparency and comparability among organizations
by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing essential information about leasing transactions.
The Company has assessed that this pronouncement had no impact on the financial statements.
Results
of Operations
Years
Ended December 31, 2020 and 2019
Revenue
For
the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company reported revenue of $1,741,919 a decrease of $1,103 from revenue of $1,743,021 for
the year ended December 31, 2019. The decrease in revenue was due to the COVID-19 pandemic which caused several channels of
our business to be shut down.
Cost
of Revenue
Cost
of revenue includes finished goods purchase costs, production costs, raw material costs and freight in costs. Also included in
cost of revenue are adjustments made to inventory carrying amounts, including markdowns to market.
For
the twelve months ended December 31, 2020, cost of revenue was $917,639 or 53% of revenue. For the twelve months ended December
31, 2019, cost of revenue was $908,408 or 52% of revenue. The 1% increase in cost of revenue was due to the packaging costs updates
for old products and also for new products launched in 2020.
7
Operating
Expenses
For
the year ended December 31, 2020, the selling, general and administrative expenses was $910,218 a decrease of $221,594
from the year ended December 31, 2019 of $1,131,812.
This
decrease in operating expenses was primarily due to lower compensation expenses coupled with lower marketing and selling
expenses. Compensation expenses decreased by $145,036 compared to the same period last year. Marketing expenses decreased by $15,070
from the same period last year. Selling expenses were $428,110 for the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to $465,864 for the
year ended December 31, 2019. This $37,754 decrease is attributable to the lower shipping expenses, broker fees and storage fees.

was $15,050 for the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to $750 for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Working
Capital Needs
Our
working capital requirements increase as demand grows for our products. During 2020 and 2019, the Company did not require additional
funding. If the Company requires additional working capital during the next twelve months, it may seek to raise additional funds.
Financing transactions may include the issuance of equity, debt securities and obtaining credit facilities.

ITEM
9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure
Controls and Procedures
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure
controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be
disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)
is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers,
or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. It should be
noted that the design of any system of controls 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,
regardless of how remote.
Under
the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s senior management, consisting of the Company’s principal
executive and financial officer and the Company’s principal accounting officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the
effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)
under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on this evaluation,
the Company’s principal executive and financial officer concluded, as of the Evaluation Date, that the Company’s disclosure
controls and procedures were effective.
Management’s
Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The
management of MOJO Organics, Inc. is responsible for establishing and maintaining an adequate system of internal control over
financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f)) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is a
process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial
statements for external purposes of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Because of its inherent limitations,
internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.
Therefore,
even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. In
evaluating the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, our management used the criteria set forth by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on this
evaluation, our officers concluded that, during the period covered by this annual report, our internal controls over financial
reporting were not operating effectively.
As
previously reported, the Company does not have an audit committee and is not currently obligated to have one. Management does
not believe that the lack of an audit committee is a material weakness.
Attestation
Report
This
Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding
internal control over financial reporting as such report is not required for non-accelerated filers.
Changes
in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There
was no change in our internal controls over financial reporting during the year ended December 31, 2020 that have materially affected,
or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Board
Committees
The
Company has not established any committees of the Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors may designate from among its members
an executive committee and one or more other committees in the future. We do not have a nominating committee or a nominating committee
charter. Further, we do not have a policy with regard to the consideration of any director candidates recommended by security
holders. To date, no security holders have made any such recommendations. Our two directors perform all functions that would otherwise
be performed by committees. Given the present size of our board it is not practical for us to have committees. If we are able
to grow our business and increase our operations, we intend to expand the size of our board and allocate responsibilities accordingly.
Shareholder
Communications
Currently,
we do not have a policy with regard to the consideration of any director candidates recommended by security holders. To date,
no security holders have made any such recommendations.

13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
Other
than as disclosed below and in this Form 10-K, there have been no transactions, since January 1, 2020, or any currently proposed
transaction, in which we were or are to be a participant and the amount involved exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or 1% of the average
of our total assets at yearend for the last two completed fiscal years and in which any of our directors, executive officers or
beneficial holders of more than 5% of our outstanding Common Stock, or any of their respective immediate family members, has had
or will have any direct or material indirect interest.
Director
Independence
We
are not currently subject to listing requirements of any national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system which has
requirements that a majority of the board of directors be “independent” and, as a result, we are not at this time
required to (and we do not) have our Board of Directors comprised of a majority of “Independent Directors.”
Our
Board of Directors has considered the independence of its directors in reference to the definition of “independent director”
established by the Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5605(a)(2). In doing so, the Board of Directors has reviewed all commercial and other
relationships of each director in making its determination as to the independence of its directors. After such review, the Board
of Directors has determined that Mr. Devlin qualifies as independent under the requirements of the Nasdaq listing standards.

REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To
the Shareholders and Board of Directors of MOJO Organics, Inc.
Opinion
on the Financial Statements
We
have audited the accompanying balance sheet of MOJO Organics, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2020, and the
related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2020,
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 December 31, 2020, and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2020, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America.
Basis
of 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 audit. 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 U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
and the PCAOB.
We
conducted our audit in accordance with 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 audit, 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
audit 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 audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical
Audit Matters
The
critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were
communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material
to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of
critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by
communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or
disclosures to which they relate.
Inventory
Valuation
At
December 31, 2020, the Company’s inventory balance was $174,171. As described in Note 2 to the financial statements, inventories,
consisting solely of finished goods, are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value. If
necessary, the Company provides allowances to adjust the carrying value of its inventories to net realizable value when the net
realizable value is below cost. At December 31, 2020, there were no such adjustments to inventory.
Our
audit procedures included testing the reasonableness of management’s key assumptions and judgments used to determine the
inventory valuation. For instance, we confirmed the units held at an independent warehouse, for selected purchases we vouched the
unit costs to supplier invoices, we compared the quantities and carrying value of on-hand inventories to related unit sales, and
we reviewed historic inventory turnover.
Stock
Issued for Services
During
the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recognized $177,322 in expenses related to stock issued for services. As discussed
in Notes 3 and 4, the Company has issued stock to Management under an employment agreement and periodically issued other shares
for services. Shares issued for services are recorded at their fair value on their measurement dates based upon prices on OTC
markets.
Our
audit procedures to evaluate the appropriateness and accuracy of the accounting and fair value determined by management included
reviewing the agreements and selected documentation supporting the issuances as well as recomputing the valuations made by Management
by examining the prices from third party sources.

statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity/deficit, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2019,
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 December 31, 2019, and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2019, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America.

NOTE
2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use
of Estimates
The
financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
(“GAAP”). Management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
Cash
equivalents include investment instruments and time deposits purchased with a maturity of three months or less. As of December
31, 2020, and December 31, 2019, the Company did not have any cash equivalents.
Accounts
Receivable
Accounts
receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. The Company provides for probable
uncollectible amounts based upon its assessment of the current status of the individual receivables and after using reasonable
collection efforts. The allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 was zero.
Inventories
Inventories,
consisting solely of finished goods, are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value (“NRV”).
If necessary, the Company provides allowances to adjust the carrying value of its inventories to NRV when NRV is below cost. There
were no such adjustments in 2020 or 2019.
Revenue
Recognition
Revenue
from sales of products is recognized when the related performance obligation is satisfied. The Company’s performance obligation
is satisfied upon the shipment or delivery of products to customers. The Company’s products are sold on cash and credit
terms which are established in accordance with standardized industry practices and typically require payment within 30 days of
delivery. Costs incurred for sales incentives and discounts are accounted for as reductions in revenue.
F- 7
Deductions
from Revenue
Costs
incurred for sales incentives and discounts are accounted for as a reduction in revenue. These costs include payments to customers
for performing merchandising activities on our behalf, including in-store displays, promotions for new items and obtaining optimum
shelf space.
Shipping
and Handling Costs
Shipping
and Handling Costs incurred to move finished goods from our sales distribution centers to customer locations are included in the
line Selling, General and Administrative Expenses in our Statements of Operations.
Net
Income/(Loss) Per Common Share
The
Company computes per share amounts in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards
Codification (“ASC”) Topic 260, “Earnings per Share”. ASC Topic 260 requires presentation of basic
and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is computed by dividing the loss available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of
common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common
stock equivalents outstanding during the periods.
The
following potentially dilutive securities have been excluded from the computation of weighted average shares outstanding as they
would have had an anti-dilutive impact on the Company’s net income/(loss) per common share:

Income
Taxes
The
Net Operating Loss Carryforwards for federal taxes was $4,637,871 at December 31, 2020 and $5,008,013 for the State of New Jersey.
The Deferred Tax Assets for federal taxes was $973,953 at December 31, 2020 and $451,721 for the State of New Jersey. The total
Deferred Tax Assets was $1,424,674 at December 31, 2020. The Deferred Tax assets have been fully reserved by valuation allowances
beyond that portion which is expected to offset current taxes. As of December 31, 2020, the Company’s Federal income tax
payable would be $12,477 and State Income Tax payable would be $5,347 if this had not been offset by the deferred tax assets.
The
Company provides for income taxes using the asset and liability approach in accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and
the tax rates in effect when these differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance
if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not
be realized. The Company did not have a deferred tax liability at December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.
As
of December 31, 2020, and December 31, 2019, the Company had no accrued interest or penalties because there were none.
The Company had no Federal or State tax examinations in the past nor does it have any at the current time.
Fair
value of financial instruments
The
carrying amounts of financial instruments, which include cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate
their fair values due to their short-term nature.
New
Accounting Pronouncements
In
December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2019-12, “Income
Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”. The ASC aims to identify, evaluate, and improve areas
of generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for which cost and complexity can be reduced while maintaining or improving
the usefulness of the information provided to users of financial statements. The Company is still assessing the impact of this
pronouncement to the financial statements.

NOTE
3 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The
global coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has caused disruptions in supply chains, affecting production and sales across a range
of industries. While this disruption is currently expected to be temporary, there is considerable uncertainty around the duration.
The
extent of the impact of COVID-19 on our operational and financial performance will depend on the effect on our customers and vendors
– all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. The related financial impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this
time.
Employment
Agreements
On
April 6, 2017, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Employment Agreement with Mr. Glenn Simpson (the “Simpson
Agreement”), the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (the “CEO”). The Simpson Agreement was
effective April 1, 2017 and has an eight-year term.
Pursuant
to the Simpson Agreement dated April 6, 2017, Mr. Simpson will be paid a salary of $5,000 per month in cash and the Company
is obligated to grant 67,000 shares of non-trading, restricted Common Stock per month. Additionally, Mr. Simpson
is entitled to an annual bonus comprised of cash and non-trading, restricted Common Stock based on the achievement of performance
goals established by the Board of Directors of the Company and set forth in the Simpson Agreement. The cash bonus is established
at $44,400 per year. The stock bonus is set at 200,000 shares of non-trading, restricted Common Stock per year through
March 31, 2025 based upon achieving revenue performance goals. The revenue goals range from $900,000 to $19,200,000 per
year. The bonus awards are accelerated when revenues exceed the annual target amounts.
During
the twelve months ended December 31, 2020, the CEO was issued 804,000 Restricted and Non-Trading shares of Common Stock under
the terms of the Simpson Agreement for the stock portion of his annual compensation. Refer to Note 4 – Restricted Stock
Issuances.
During
the first quarter of 2020, Mr. Simpson exercised stock options to purchase 156,250 non-trading, restricted shares at $0.16 per
share and the total exercise price of $25,000 reduced the accrued salary owed to him. Refer to Note 4 for the explanation of the
conversions. He was paid in cash for the second and fourth quarters, and for the month of September. Mr. Simpson received 108,696
non-trading, restricted shares in lieu of cash payments.
The
“Simpson Agreement” is the only executive employment agreement in effect as of December 31, 2020.
The
Company has no other plans in place and has never maintained any plans that provide for the payment of retirement benefits or
benefits that will be paid primarily following retirement including, but not limited to, tax qualified deferred benefit plans,
supplemental executive retirement plans, tax-qualified deferred contribution plans and nonqualified deferred contribution plans.
Lease
Commitment
The
Company maintains office space in Jersey City, NJ. The initial lease agreement was for the period March 1, 2019 to February 29,
2020 and was renewed for one year under the same terms. In April 2020, the Company was given a 50% discount on the rent for April
and May 2020 as well as an optional lease extension for an additional three months under the same terms. The base rent under this
agreement is $2,343 per month, and expires May 31, 2021. Lease expense amounted to $25,773 and $27,648 for the year ended December
31, 2020 and 2019 respectively. The security deposit for the lease agreement is $4,518 and the lease expires on May 31, 2021.
F- 9
NOTE
4 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
The
Company has authorized 190,000,000 shares of Common Stock having a par value of $0.001. On February 4, 2019, the Company, by a
vote of its majority shareholders, cancelled the authorization for the issuance of up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock.
There were no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding prior to this change.
Restricted
Stock Issuances
During
the year ended December 31, 2020, 1,383,946 shares of Restricted and Non-Trading Common Stock were issued to Directors and Officers
of the Company. These shares have full voting rights but are restricted for sale or transfer. The CEO exercised options to purchase
156,250 shares at $0.16 per share for a total exercise price of $25,000 which reduced the accrued salary payable to the CEO by
the same amount.
The
CEO was also issued 804,000 shares of Restricted and Non-Trading Common Stock for the stock portion of his annual salary. A Director
was issued 90,000 shares of non-trading, restricted Common stock as an award for continuing to serve as a Director of the
Company. The Corporate Controller was also issued 225,000 shares of non-trading, restricted Common stock for her
annual stock bonus. The value of these shares was recorded as a component of compensation expense.
On
December 8, 2020 the Company’s Board of Directors signed a unanimous consent to convert Mr. Simpson’s accrued salary
payable for the months of July and August amounting $10,000 to 108,696 non-trading, restricted shares in lieu of cash payments.
This reduced the salary payable to the CEO by the same amount.
Advisory
Services
On
October 3, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement for strategic business advisory services, public relations services and
investor relations services with Ian Thompson from Carricklee House, Strabane, Northern Ireland.
In
connection with this agreement, the Company issued 167,204 shares of restricted Common Stock and recorded consulting fees of $501,612
during 2013, which was the fair market value of the stock on the date of issue. The stock is vested; however, it is restricted
from trading. Ian Thompson was also issued 200,000 shares of restricted Common Stock, which was to vest quarterly based upon the
Company reaching certain market capitalization and revenue goals, in addition to providing the above services, with the last tranche
vesting on June 30, 2014. Consulting fees amounting to $105,000 and $280,000 were recorded in 2014 and 2013, respectively, related
to the 200,000 shares of Common Stock. Throughout the term of the agreement, the Company requested that Ian Thompson to render
performance under the agreement and to provide evidence of same. Ian Thompson failed to perform in all material respects under
the terms of the agreement and refused to provide evidence.
On
June 27, 2014, the Company terminated the agreement. Empire Stock Transfer, Inc, the Company’s transfer agent was directed
to process cancellation requests regarding the certificates listed below. The Board of Directors approved the Company’s
irrevocable agreement to indemnify the Transfer Agent for all loss, liability or expense in carrying out the authority and direction
contained on the terms of the Unanimous Written Consent to terminate the Thompson Agreement. The Transfer Agent shall maintain
the right to uphold the transfer in the event of forgery.

Major
Customers
During the year ended December 31, 2020, the

NOTE
9 – SBA LOANS “CARES ACT”
On
May 5, 2020, the Company received loan proceeds in the amount of $35,508 under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”).
The PPP, established as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), provides for
loans to qualifying businesses for amounts up to 2.5 times of the average monthly payroll expenses of the qualifying business.
The loans and accrued interest are forgivable after eight weeks as long as the borrower uses the loan proceeds for eligible purposes,
including payroll, benefits, rent and utilities, and maintains its payroll levels. The amount of loan forgiveness will be reduced
if the borrower terminates employees or reduces salaries during the eight-week period.
On
May 27, 2020, the Company received grant proceeds in the amount of $2,000 under the Economic Injury Disaster Loan (“EIDL”)
Program. This grant was recorded as other income during the second quarter of 2020. The EIDL program was created to assist businesses,
renters and homeowners located in regions affected by declared disasters. The Company applied for the EIDL Emergency Advance which
provides $1,000 per employee up to a maximum of $10,000.
On
December 18, 2020, the Company applied for the loan forgiveness for the loan proceeds amounting $35,508 under the Paycheck Protection
Program. The Company believes it has met the criteria for forgiveness and should receive that determination from the US Treasury.
NOTE
10 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The
Company received the loan forgiveness decision from the SBA in January 2021. The full amount of the loan proceeds amounting $35,508
was forgiven.
