Overview
We
are a developer of clean energy technologies. Our current focus is on developing an electrolyzer technology to lower the cost of Green
Hydrogen production.
Hydrogen
is the cleanest and most abundant fuel in the universe. It is zero-emission and only produces water vapor when used. However, hydrogen
does not exist in its pure form on Earth so it must be extracted. For centuries, scientists have known how to use electricity to split
water into hydrogen and oxygen using a device called an electrolyzer. Electrolyzers installed behind a solar farm or wind farm can use
renewable electricity to split water, thereby producing Green Hydrogen. However, modern electrolyzers still cost too much. The chemical
catalysts that enable the water-splitting reactions are currently made from platinum and iridium – both are very expensive precious
metals. These catalysts account for nearly 50% of the cost of the electrolyzer.
We
are developing technologies to significantly reduce or replace rare materials with inexpensive earth abundant materials in electrolyzers
to help usher in a Green Hydrogen economy. In a 2020 report, Goldman Sachs estimates that Green Hydrogen will be a $12 trillion market
opportunity by 2050.
Industry
Overview
Hydrogen
is the most abundant and prevalent clean energy in the universe. 73% of the Sun is made up of hydrogen.
●
On
a weight basis, hydrogen (142 MJ/kg) contains 3X as much energy as gasoline (46 MJ/kg), and 200X as much energy as lithium-ion batteries
(0.6 MJ/kg).
●
It
can be used in fuel cells to power electric vehicles or cities.
●
It
can be combusted in gas turbines or internal combustion engines for power generation.
●
It
is a zero-emission clean fuel and produces only water vapor when used.
●
It
is the main ingredient in fertilizers that feed our hungry world.
Hydrogen
does not exist in its pure form, and must be extracted. According to a 2020 report from the U.S. Department of Energy, more than 98%
of hydrogen in the world are made by steam reforming of natural gas (“Grey Hydrogen”) or coal gasification (“Brown
Hydrogen”). Both sources of hydrogen are basically different forms of dirty, carbon heavy, and non-renewable fossil fuels. This
does nothing to help fight climate change or lead to renewable energy and a sustainable planet.
According
to a 2020 research report from Grand View Research, hydrogen is already a big business today with an annual market size of more than
$117 billion in 2019. Developing cost-competitive Green Hydrogen made from renewable resources such as solar, wind and water can significantly
expand the market for hydrogen. At this time, we believe electrolyzer technology represents the most certain way forward.
Solar
or Wind Energy + Water + Electrolyzers = Green Hydrogen
Abundant
sources of Green Hydrogen can power a clean energy world of fast charging fuel cell electric vehicles, light up our homes, make our fertilizers
and ultimately replace many forms of fossil fuels.
1
An
overwhelming amount of scientific evidence shows that carbon emissions from fossil fuels have contributed to increasing global climate
change. Policymakers around the world have accelerated programs to enable the development and adoption of renewable energy. The U.S has
been slow to adopt such programs but is quickly becoming a formidable force. According to the World Resources Institute, more than 14
U.S. states have legislative mandates requiring 100% renewable electricity, some as early as 2040. Both the U.K. and European Union are
targeting net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.
With
this global backdrop and concerted actions toward climate policies and clean energy, we believe the Green Hydrogen revolution is ready
to take off. The Sun does not always shine, and the wind does not always blow. Therefore, green energy from solar and wind power is inherently
intermittent and unreliable as a primary source of power. However, by converting that green electricity into Green Hydrogen, it can be
used anywhere and anytime for electricity, chemicals, heating and all necessities of life.
Because
of the versatility of hydrogen, we believe Green Hydrogen has the potential to fundamentally improve the world economy and usher in a
new era of economic prosperity, sustainability, and energy independence to those with access to solar, wind and water which describes
most of the entire world.
In
a 2020 report, Bank of America noted that hydrogen will take 25% of all oil demand by 2050 and that Green Hydrogen economy could be worth
more than $11 trillion by 2050. The firm also compared Green Hydrogen to pre-2007 smartphones and the Internet prior to the dot-com boom.
Electrolyzer
Technology
For
more than 200 years, scientists have known how to split water into hydrogen (H 2 ) and oxygen (O 2 ). By placing two
metal electrodes into a jar of salted water (electrolytic solution) and applying an electrical voltage between them, H 2 and
O 2 will bubble up at the separate electrodes. This process is called electrolysis and the device is called an electrolyzer.
If the source of electricity is renewable such as solar or wind, then the resulting hydrogen is a zero-greenhouse gas renewable resource
– Green Hydrogen.
There
are two primary types of commercial electrolyzers. The original alkaline electrolyzer and the modern proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzer.
However, neither technology can currently produce Green Hydrogen at scale that is cost competitive with Grey or Brown Hydrogen sourced
from fossil fuels.PEM electrolysis has the advantage of higher efficiency and quickly reacting to fluctuating input energy, which is
ideally matched to the fluctuating nature of solar and wind energy. Its smaller footprint also makes it ideal for distributed systems,
which is how most renewable energy systems are implemented.
PEM
electrolyzers are expensive because they rely on rare materials such as platinum and iridium – which is akin to stardust found
only in asteroids – as chemical catalysts for the water-splitting reactions. According to National Renewable Energy Laboratory
(NREL), these materials account for nearly 50% of the capital cost of PEM electrolyzers. Additionally, the cost of electricity contributes
to over 50% of hydrogen production costs.
Our
technology is aimed at lowering the cost of catalysts and key components in PEM electrolyzers by:
●
Replacing
rare materials with inexpensive earth abundant materials,
●
significantly
reducing the amount of rare materials used, and
●
Reducing
energy consumption.

Applications
of Green Hydrogen
Unlike
lithium-ion where it is simply a battery technology, Green Hydrogen is an economy. There are many applications for Green Hydrogen, some
with larger markets than others. Here are just a few.
(Source:
U.S. DOE)
●
Green
Electric Grid - The electric grid is finicky, sometimes it needs a lot of electricity sometimes it does not. Unused electricity
from solar and wind farms are wasted if it is not used immediately. The Sun does not always shine, and the wind does not always blow,
and this makes solar and wind sourced electricity unreliable. One solution is to use an electrolyzer system to convert the excess
solar/wind electricity into hydrogen and store it in inexpensive nearby underground caverns. When electricity demand spikes, the
hydrogen can be converted back into electricity through a fuel cell. We believe, this is a very scalable solution as opposed to miles
and miles of very expensive grid-scale battery systems. In fact, the Advanced Clean Energy Storage project in Utah aims to do just
this by building the world’s largest storage facility for 1,000 megawatts of clean power, partly by putting hydrogen into underground
salt caverns.
3
●
Fuel
Cell Electric Vehicles (FCEV) - Perhaps the most exciting application of hydrogen is the direct use in fuel cell electric vehicles.
A hydrogen tank in a passenger car can be filled in under five minutes. The only tailpipe emission is water. Big name car manufacturers
such as Toyota, Hyundai, BMW, Mercedes-Benz all have FCEVs in development. China is committing to putting 1,000,000 FCEVs on the
road by 2030.
●
Battery
Electric Vehicles (BEV) – We believe BEV and FCEV can coexist just like diesel and gasoline cars coexist today. Battery
EVs running on electricity generated through the Green Electric Grid is a beneficiary and indirect user of hydrogen technology. The
Green Electric Grid is the network of solar, wind and other alternative energy generation and distribution.
●
Hydrogen
Fueling Stations – We believe electrolyzers are well suited and scalable for distributed onsite Green Hydrogen generation
in fueling station applications. With green electricity from a nearby solar array or renewable electric grid, Green Hydrogen can
be produced anywhere and anytime. This distributed model of hydrogen production eliminates the need for expensive transportation
from a centralized facility.
●
Lower
Carbon Gas Infrastructure - Green Hydrogen can serve as a steppingstone to a lower carbon footprint natural gas supply. Southern
California Gas, and others, have demonstrated that the existing natural gas pipelines that supply gas to our cooking stoves and homes
can safely contain 5-10% hydrogen without any modifications. This means that an electrolyzer system near a natural gas plant can
inject Green Hydrogen directly into the existing gas infrastructure, lowering the carbon footprint of our meals and our warm homes.
●
Air
Taxis of the Future - Hydrogen has 200 times the theoretical energy of lithium-ion batteries per kilogram. We believe hydrogen
is the obvious choice because of its lighter weight, in the emerging but potentially revolutionary air mobility market of small electric
aircrafts, such as the Skai air tax drone. According to Skai, battery-powered air mobility vehicles are projected to have flight
durations of less than half an hour before needing to recharge – Skai’s hydrogen fuel cells give them the ability to
fly continuously for up to 4 hours or more with higher capacity auxiliary tanks.
Research
and Development
Our
electrolyzer technology research and development is conducted at the University of California at Los Angeles through a sponsored research
agreement. The current program is focused on replacing iridium with earth abundant materials that meet or exceed the performance characteristics
of iridium. We have also identified additional components and materials in electrolyzers where meaningful cost reductions can be performed.
While iridium is the oxygen catalyst, its counterpart on the hydrogen side is platinum, a material so rare that only 200 tons are mined
every year. Another critical component is the porous transport layer (“PTL”), also known as the gas diffusion layer, which
facilitates the movement of water and gases to and from the catalyst surfaces. According to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory,
the catalysts, membrane and PTL assembly account for more than 50%-75% of the capital cost of the electrolyzer stack.
4
Marketing
Strategy
We
will begin marketing our electrolyzer catalyst technologies as soon as a tangible form of quantitative performance demonstration becomes
available. Our marketing plan includes engaging with manufacturers of existing electrolyzer component and delivery infrastructure, as
well as identifying and developing relationships with potential licensing partners with large scale hydrogen generation and supply logistics
all over the world.
We
are currently outsourcing our promotion efforts to a public relations firm that is assisting us with comprehensive advertising and promotion
of the Company.
Backlog
of Orders
We
do not have any backlog of orders.
Government
Contracts
We
do not have any government contracts at this time.
Compliance
with Environmental Laws and Regulations
Our
operations are subject to local, state and federal laws and regulations governing environmental quality and pollution control. To date,
our compliance with these regulations has had no material effect on our operations, capital, earnings, or competitive position, and the
cost of such compliance has not been material. We are unable to assess or predict at this time what effect additional regulations or
legislation could have on our activities.
Manufacturing
and Distribution
We
entered into a manufacturing supply agreement with a third party for the future commercial production of hydrogen generation plants.
See “Recent Developments” below.
We
may enter into additional agreements for the manufacture and distribution of our own technology products in the future.
Intellectual
Property
On
May 19, 2011, we filed a U.S. patent to protect the intellectual property rights for “Photovoltaic Module Backsheet, Materials
for Use in Module Backsheet and Process for Making the Same,” application number 13/093,549. The inventor listed on the patent
application is Stanley Levy, our former Chief Technology Officer. The Company is listed as assignee. This patent was issued on July 14,
2015. Our BioBacksheet R is currently available for licensing only.
On
March 26, 2018, North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University filed a U.S. patent application U.S. Serial No. 62/473,772
titled “Prelithiated Silicon Particles for Lithium Ion Batteries”, and we currently have a non-exclusive License Agreement
for the use of the technology. The patent was issued on December 29, 2020.
Competition
There
are a number of companies developing green hydrogen technologies including ITM Power, Clean Power Hydrogen Group, Sunfire, Greenway Energy,
Amalyst, and AFC Energy. We expect a high level of competition, but the market opportunity is very large. Once we implement the prototype
demonstration of our technology for commercial application, we plan on seeking partnership or licensing arrangements for our green hydrogen
technology with a select group of equipment manufacturers of green hydrogen.

Technology
Development Partners
On
September 28, 2017, the Company entered into an Exclusive License Agreement (the “License Agreement”) with the North Carolina
A&T State University related to the use of the University’s intellectual property in the Company’s business of developing,
producing and marketing lithium-ion batteries. Within thirty (30) days after entering into the License Agreement, the Company paid to
the University a one-time, non-refundable license fee in the sum of $15,000. Pursuant to the terms of the License Agreement, the Company
is obligated to pay all costs of preparing, filing, prosecution, issuance and maintenance related to the patents underlying the intellectual
property licensed by the Company. In addition, the Company is obligated to make certain annual royalty payments and sub-licensing fees.
On September 28, 2020, the Company again paid to the University annual non-refundable licensee fee of $15,000. On September 28, 2021,
the Company chose not to renew the exclusive licensing arrangement. The Company still retains a nonexclusive license to use the technology.
On
June 14, 2018, the Company executed a joint development agreement with Silicio Ferrosolar SLU, a subsidiary of Ferroglobe, PLC (NASDAQ:GSM),
for collaborative efforts to assess, develop, and/or market silicon anode materials for high power, high energy lithium ion batteries
by integrating BioSolar technology and Ferroglobe silicon materials.
On
March 6, 2020, the Company executed a joint development agreement with Soelect, Inc, for collaborative efforts to assess, develop, and/or
market a processing technology to produce silicon oxide anode materials for electric vehicle lithium ion batteries. The Company ended
the joint development relationship in June 2021 and has pivoted away from pursuing battery technology to focus on pursuing Green Hydrogen
Opportunities.
On
December 14, 2020, the Company executed a sponsored research agreement with the University of California, Los Angeles, for collaborative
efforts to discover and develop efficient and stable earth-abundant material-based catalysts for hydrogen production through water electrolysis.
To
assist us in the development of our technology, we intend to seek out and enter into technology development agreements with other entities
with battery testing and materials expertise.

RISK
FACTORS
WE
HAVE A LIMITED HISTORY OF LOSSES AND HAVE NEVER REALIZED REVENUES TO DATE.
Since
inception, we have incurred losses and have negative cash flows from operations and have realized only minimal revenues. From inception
through December 31, 2021, we have an accumulated deficit of $151,914,888. These factors, among others discussed in Note (1) to the financial
statements included in this Annual Report, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We expect to continue
to incur net losses until we are able to realize revenues to fund our continuing operations. We may fail to achieve any or significant
revenues from sales or achieve or sustain profitability. Accordingly, there can be no assurance of when, if ever, we will be profitable
or be able to maintain profitability.
WE
ARE A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY AND MAY BE UNABLE TO MANAGE OUR GROWTH OR IMPLEMENT OUR EXPANSION STRATEGY IF WE ARE ABLE TO LAUNCH OUR
PRODUCT AND SERVICE OFFERINGS.
We
are a development stage company that was formed on April 24, 2006 and may not be able to launch our product and service offerings or
implement the other features of our business strategy at the rate or to the extent presently planned. If we are able to launch our product
and service offerings, our projected growth will place a significant strain on our administrative, operational and financial resources.
If we are unable to successfully manage our future growth, establish and upgrade our operating and financial control systems, recruit
and hire necessary personnel or effectively manage unexpected expansion difficulties, our financial condition and results of operations
could be materially and adversely affected.
WE
MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SUCCESSFULLY DEVELOP AND COMMERCIALIZE OUR TECHNOLOGIES WHICH WOULD RESULT IN CONTINUED LOSSES.
While
we have made progress in the development of our products, we have generated only minimal revenues and are unable to project when we will
achieve profitability, if at all. As is the case with any new technology, we are a development stage company and expect the development
process to continue. We may not be able to develop our product offering, develop a customer base and markets, or implement the other
features of our business strategy at the rate or to the extent presently planned. Growth beyond the product development stage will place
a significant strain on our administrative, operational and financial resources. In addition, our operations will not be able to move
out of the development stage without additional funding.
OUR
REVENUES ARE DEPENDENT UPON ACCEPTANCE OF OUR PRODUCTS BY THE MARKET; THE FAILURE OF WHICH WOULD CAUSE TO CURTAIL OR CEASE OPERATIONS.
We
believe that virtually all of our revenues will come from the sale or license of our products. As a result, we will continue to incur
substantial operating losses until such time as we are able to sell and license our products and generate revenue. There can be no assurance
that businesses and customers will adopt our technology and products, or that businesses and prospective customers will agree to pay
for or license our products. In the event that we are not able to significantly increase the number of customers that purchase or license
our products, or if we are unable to charge the necessary prices or license fees, our financial condition and results of operations will
be materially and adversely affected.
7
WE
DO NOT MAINTAIN THEFT OR CASUALTY INSURANCE, AND ONLY MAINTAIN MODEST LIABILITY AND PROPERTY INSURANCE COVERAGE AND THEREFORE WE COULD
INCUR LOSSES AS A RESULT OF AN UNINSURED LOSS.
We
do not maintain theft or casualty insurance and we have modest liability and property insurance coverage. We cannot assure you that we
will not incur uninsured liabilities and losses as a result of the conduct of our business. Any such uninsured loss or liability could
have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
IF
WE LOSE KEY EMPLOYEES AND CONSULTANTS OR ARE UNABLE TO ATTRACT OR RETAIN QUALIFIED PERSONNEL, OUR BUSINESS COULD SUFFER.
Our
success is highly dependent on our ability to attract and retain qualified scientific, engineering and management personnel. We are highly
dependent on our chief executive officer, Dr. David Lee, who has been critical to the development of our technologies and business. The
loss of the services of Dr. Lee could have a material adverse effect on our operations. We are also highly dependent on our chief operating
officer, Mr. Spencer Hall, who has been critical in the development of business relationships with partners and potential customers.
We do not have employment agreements with Dr. Lee or Mr. Hall and do not maintain key man insurance with respect to Dr. Lee or Mr. Hall.
Accordingly, there can be no assurance that they will remain associated with us. Their efforts will be critical to us as we continue
to develop our technology and as we attempt to transition from a development stage company to a company with commercialized products
and services. If we were to lose Dr. Lee, or any other key employees or consultants, we may experience difficulties in competing effectively,
developing our technology and implementing our business strategies.
THE
LOSS OF STRATEGIC RELATIONSHIPS USED IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF OUR PRODUCTS AND TECHNOLOGY COULD IMPEDE OUR ABILITY TO COMPLETE OUR PRODUCT.
We
may rely on strategic relationships with technology development partners to provide personnel, and expertise in the research and development
of our technology and manufacturing process underlying our product. A loss of these relationships for any reason could cause us to experience
difficulties in completing the development of our product and implementing our business strategy. There can be no assurance that we could
establish other relationships of adequate expertise in a timely manner or at all.
OUR
CURRENT AND POTENTIAL COMPETITORS, SOME OF WHOM HAVE GREATER RESOURCES THAN WE DO, MAY DEVELOP PRODUCTS AND TECHNOLOGIES THAT MAY CAUSE
DEMAND FOR, AND THE PRICES OF, OUR PRODUCTS TO DECLINE.
While
there are a number of companies developing green hydrogen technologies for electrolyzers, we do not know of any employing anything similar
to our non-precious metal-based catalysts. We may face competition from these companies as they may expand or extend their product offering
to incorporate new catalyst materials.
Many
of our current and potential competitors have longer operating histories, significantly greater financial, technical, product development
and marketing resources, greater name recognition and larger customer bases than we do. Our present or future competitors may be able
to develop products comparable or superior to those we offer, adapt more quickly than we do to new technologies, evolving industry trends
and standards or customer requirements, or devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sale of their products than we
do. Accordingly, we may not be able to compete effectively in our markets, competition may intensify and future competition may harm
our business.
WE
ARE CONTROLLED BY CURRENT OFFICERS, DIRECTORS AND PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDERS.
Our
directors and executive officers beneficially own approximately 31.6% of the outstanding shares of our common stock as of December 31,
2021. Accordingly, our executive officers, directors, principal stockholders and certain of their affiliates will have the ability to
control the election of our Board of Directors and the outcome of matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders.

Risks
Related to Our Common Stock
BECAUSE
THERE IS A LIMITED MARKET IN OUR COMMON STOCK, STOCKHOLDERS MAY HAVE DIFFICULTY IN SELLING OUR COMMON STOCK AND OUR COMMON STOCK MAY
BE SUBJECT TO SIGNIFICANT PRICE SWINGS.
There
is a very limited market for our common stock. Since trading commenced in February 2007, there has been little activity in our common
stock and on some days, there is no trading in our common stock. Because of the limited market for our common stock, the purchase or
sale of a relatively small number of shares may have an exaggerated effect on the market price for our common stock. We cannot assure
stockholders that they will be able to sell common stock or, that if they are able to sell their shares, that they will be able to sell
the shares in any significant quantity at the quoted price.
IF
WE FAIL TO REMAIN CURRENT ON OUR REPORTING REQUIREMENTS, WE COULD BE REMOVED FROM THE OTC BULLETIN BOARD WHICH WOULD LIMIT THE ABILITY
OF BROKER-DEALERS TO SELL OUR SECURITIES AND THE ABILITY OF STOCKHOLDERS TO SELL THEIR SECURITIES IN THE SECONDARY MARKET.
Securities
traded on the OTCQB must be registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the issuer must be current with its filings pursuant
to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1933, as amended in order to maintain price quotation privileges on the OTCQB.
If we fail to remain current in our reporting requirements, we could be removed from the OTCQB. As a result, the market liquidity for
our securities could be severely adversely affected by limiting the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and the ability
of stockholders to sell their securities in the secondary market. In addition, we may be unable to get re-listed on the OTCQB, which
may have an adverse material effect on our Company.
OUR
COMMON STOCK IS SUBJECT TO THE “PENNY STOCK” RULES OF THE SEC AND THE TRADING MARKET IN OUR SECURITIES IS LIMITED, WHICH
MAKES TRANSACTIONS IN OUR STOCK CUMBERSOME AND MAY REDUCE THE VALUE OF AN INVESTMENT IN OUR STOCK.
The
Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a “penny stock,” for the purposes
relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00
per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require:
●
that
a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks; and
●
the
broker or dealer receives from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the
penny stock to be purchased.
In
order to approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:
●
obtain
financial information and investment experience objectives of the person; and
●
make
a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge
and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.
The
broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Commission relating
to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:
●
sets
forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and
●
that
the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.
Generally,
brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the “penny stock” rules. This may make it more
difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.
9
Disclosure
also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions
payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies
available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent
price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.
WE
DO NOT EXPECT TO PAY DIVIDENDS IN THE FUTURE; ANY RETURN ON INVESTMENT MAY BE LIMITED TO THE VALUE OF OUR COMMON STOCK.
We
do not currently anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. The payment of dividends on our Common Stock will depend
on earnings, financial condition and other business and economic factors affecting it at such time as the board of directors may consider
relevant. Our current intention is to apply net earnings, if any, in the foreseeable future to increasing our capital base and development
and marketing efforts. There can be no assurance that the Company will ever have sufficient earnings to declare and pay dividends to
the holders of our Common Stock, and in any event, a decision to declare and pay dividends is at the sole discretion of the our Board
of Directors. If we do not pay dividends, our Common Stock may be less valuable because a return on your investment will only occur if
its stock price appreciates.

MARKET
FOR COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER REPURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES.
On
February 22, 2007, our common stock became eligible for quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board under the ticker symbol “BSRC”
and is currently quoted on the OTC Pink maintained by the OTC Markets Group, Inc. under the ticker symbol “NEWH”.
Common
Stock
We
are authorized to issue 6,000,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share.
Holders
of the Company’s common stock are entitled to one vote for each share on all matters submitted to a stockholder vote. Holders of
common stock do not have cumulative voting rights. Therefore, holders of a majority of the shares of common stock voting for the election
of directors can elect all of the directors to our board of directors. Subject to the rights of our preferred stock, holders of the
Company’s common stock representing a majority of the voting power of the Company’s common stock issued, outstanding and
entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, are necessary to constitute a quorum at any meeting of stockholders. A vote by the
holders of a majority of the Company’s outstanding shares is required to effectuate certain fundamental corporate changes such
as a liquidation, merger or an amendment to the Company’s articles of incorporation
Subject
to the rights of preferred stockholders (if any), holders of the Company’s common stock are entitled to share in all dividends
that the Board of Directors, in its discretion, declares from legally available funds. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or
winding up, each outstanding share entitles its holder to participate pro rata in all assets that remain after payment of liabilities
and after providing for each class of stock, if any, having preference over the common stock. The Company’s common stock has no
pre-emptive rights, no conversion rights, and there are no redemption provisions applicable to the Company’s common stock.
As
of March 30, 2022, our common stock was held by 90 stockholders of record and we had 715,496,051 shares of common stock issued and
outstanding. We believe that the number of beneficial owners is substantially greater than the number of record holders because a significant
portion of our outstanding common stock is held of record in broker street names for the benefit of individual investors.
Dividend
Policy
We
have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends to stockholders in
the foreseeable future. In addition, any future determination to pay cash dividends will be at the discretion of the board of directors
and will be dependent upon our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, and such other factors as the Board
of Directors deem relevant. There are no restrictions in our articles of incorporation or bylaws that restrict us from declaring dividends.

MANAGEMENT’S
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Special
Note on Forward-Looking Statements.
Certain
statements in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation” below, and elsewhere in this annual report,
are not related to historical results, and are forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking
statements present our expectations or forecasts of future events. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate
strictly to historical or current facts. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause
our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity,
performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements frequently are accompanied
by such words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “expects,” “plans,”
“intends,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential”
or “continue,” or the negative of such terms or other words and terms of similar meaning. Although we believe that the expectations
reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, achievements,
or timeliness of such results. Moreover, neither we nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of
such forward-looking statements. We are under no duty to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this annual report.
Subsequent written and oral forward looking statements attributable to us or to persons acting in our behalf are expressly qualified
in their entirety by the cautionary statements and risk factors set forth below and elsewhere in this annual report, and in other reports
filed by us with the SEC.
You
should read the following description of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with the financial statements
and accompanying notes included in this Annual Report beginning on page F-1.
Overview
We
are a developer of clean energy technologies. Our current focus is on developing an electrolyzer technology to lower the cost of Green
Hydrogen production.
Hydrogen
is the cleanest and most abundant fuel in the universe. It is zero-emission and only produces water vapor when used. However, hydrogen
does not exist in its pure form on Earth so it must be extracted. For centuries, scientists have known how to electricity to split water
into hydrogen and oxygen using a device called an electrolyzer. Electrolyzers installed behind a solar farm or wind farm can use renewable
electricity to split water, thereby producing Green Hydrogen. However, modern electrolyzers still cost too much. The chemical catalysts
that enable the water-splitting reactions are currently made from platinum and iridium – both are very expensive precious metals.
These catalysts account for nearly 50% of the cost of the electrolyzer.
We
are developing technologies to significantly reduce or replace catalysts made from rare materials with catalysts made from inexpensive
earth abundant materials in electrolyzers to lower the cost of Green Hydrogen, thus help usher in a Green Hydrogen economy. In a 2020
report, Goldman Sachs estimates that Green Hydrogen will be a $12 trillion market opportunity by 2050.
We
have previously developed an innovative material technology to reduce the cost per watt of electricity produced by Photovoltaic, or PV,
solar modules.

RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS - YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2021 COMPARED TO THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2020
General
and Administrative Expenses
General
and administrative (“G&A”) expenses increased by $50,781,366 to $51,229,031 for the year ended December
31, 2021, compared to $447,665 for the prior period December 31, 2020. This increase in G&A expenses was the result of an increase
in non-cash stock compensation of $50,232,202, increase in salaries of $232,771, increase in professional fees of $290,208, with
an increase of $26,185 in other G&A expenses.
Research
and Development
Research
and Development (“R&D”) expenses increased by $1,043,412 to $1,221,134 for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared
to $177,722 for the prior period ended December 31, 2020. This overall increase in R&D expenses was the result of an increase in
corporate outside services.
Depreciation
and amortization Expense
Depreciation
and amortization expense for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 was $4,365 and $4,365, respectively.
Other
Income/(Expenses)
Other
income and (expenses) increased by $(206,044,226) to $62,644,010, of other expense for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared
to $(139,914,908 of other income for the prior period ended December 31, 2020. The increase in non-cash loss on change in fair value
of the derivative instruments of $202,253,656, interest income of $3,557 with a decrease in interest expense in the amount of
$(301,705), which includes the net change in amortization of debt discount in the amount of $155,857. The decrease in other income and
(expenses) was primarily due to the non-cash net change in derivatives for our outstanding convertible promissory notes.
Net
Loss
Our
net income was $10,189,480 for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to a net loss of $(140,544,660) for the prior period
ended December 31, 2020. The increase in net income was due to an increase in non-cash other income (expenses) associated with the net
change in derivative instruments estimated each period. These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our
stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility, variable conversion prices based on market prices as defined in the respective agreements
and probabilities of certain outcomes based on the calculated estimates. These inputs are used to determine the fair value of the derivative
liabilities and are subject to significant changes from period to period based on these valuations, therefore, the estimated fair value
of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material. The Company has not generated
any revenues.
LIQUIDITY
AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As
of December 31, 2021, we had $6,655,953 in working capital as compared to $150,532,859 for the prior year ended December 31, 2020.
The decrease in working capital was due primarily to a decrease in derivative liability, convertible debt, and prepaid expenses, with
an increase in cash and accounts payable.
During
the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company used $2,084,486 of cash for operating activities, as compared to $647,298 for the prior
year ended December 31, 2020. The increase in the use of cash for operating activities was a result of an increase in research and development,
salary expense in the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to December 31, 2020. The Company is focused on development of silicon anode
additive technology for next generation lithium-ion batteries.
Cash
used in investing activities for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 was $0, respectively.
13
Cash
provided from financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2021 was $8,666,700 as compared to $649,000 for the prior year
ended December 31, 2020. Our capital needs have primarily been met from the proceeds of convertible debt offerings and equity financing.
We are currently in the development stage of our business and have no revenues.
Our
financial statements as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 have been prepared under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern.
Our independent registered public accounting firm has issued their report dated February 14, 2021 that included an explanatory paragraph
expressing substantial doubt in our ability to continue as a going concern without additional capital becoming available. Our ability
to continue as a going concern ultimately is dependent on our ability to generate a profit which is dependent upon our ability to obtain
additional equity or debt financing, attain further operating efficiencies and, ultimately, achieve profitable operations. Our financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
PLAN
OF OPERATION AND FINANCING NEEDS
We
are engaged in the development of clean energy technologies to lower the cost of producing green hydrogen. The Company’s current
focus is on developing lower cost replacements for precious metal based catalysts for hydrogen electrolyzers.
Our
plan of operation within the next twelve months is to utilize our cash balances to expand the existing electrolyzer technology program
focused on significantly reducing or replacing rare materials in electrolyzers with inexpensive earth abundant materials to help usher
in a Green Hydrogen economy.
We
believe that our current cash and investment balances will be sufficient to support development activity and general and administrative
expenses for the next twenty four months. Management estimates that it will require additional cash resources during 2024, based upon
its current operating plan and condition. We expect increased expenses during the second quarter of 2022 as we ramp up prototyping efforts
for electrolyzer incorporating our catalyst technology as well as commence an additional related technology program.

CONTROLS
AND PROCEDURES.
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
We
maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer
in the reports that it files or submits under the Act (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within
the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. These disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation,
controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under
the Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons
performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
14
In
designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter
how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that the objectives of the 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.
As
of December 31, 2021, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation,
our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring
that information required to be disclosed by us in our periodic reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time
periods specified for each report and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal
executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding
required disclosure.
Management’s
Report of Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
Our
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as such term is defined
in Exchange Act Rule 13a - 15(f). Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and the
Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. 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. Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal
control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control - Integrated Framework - Guidance
for Smaller Public Companies (the COSO criteria). Based on our assessment we believe that, as of December 31, 2021, our internal controls
over financial reporting is effective based on those criteria.
This
annual report does not include an attestation report by M&K CPAS, PLLC, our independent registered public accounting firm, regarding
internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s independent
registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permits the Company to only provide management’s
report in this Form 10-K.
Changes
in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There
were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2021 that
have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

We
currently do not maintain any committees of the Board of Directors. Given our size and the development of our business to date, we believe
that the board through its meetings can perform all of the duties and responsibilities which might be performed by a committee. We do
not currently have an audit committee financial expert.

There
are no family relationships among our executive officers and directors.
CODE
OF ETHICS
We
have adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to all of our directors, officers and employees. The text of the Code of Ethics is filed as
an exhibit to this annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission

Board
Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight
Although
we have not adopted a formal policy on whether the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer positions should be separate or combined, we
have traditionally determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to combine these roles. Due to the
small size and early stage of the Company, we believe it is currently most effective to have the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
positions combined. In addition, having one person serve as both Chairman and Chief Executive Officer eliminates potential for confusion
and provides clear leadership for the Company, with a single person setting the tone and managing our operations. The Board oversees
specific risks, including, but not limited to:
●
appointing,
retaining and overseeing the work of the independent auditors, including resolving disagreements between the management and the independent
auditors relating to financial reporting;
●
approving
all auditing and non-auditing services permitted to be performed by the independent auditors;
●
reviewing
annually the independence and quality control procedures of the independent auditors;
●
reviewing,
approving, and overseeing risks arising from proposed related party transactions;
●
discussing
the annual audited financial statements with the management;
●
meeting
separately with the independent auditors to discuss critical accounting policies, management letters, recommendations on internal
controls, the auditor’s engagement letter and independence letter and other material written communications between the independent
auditors and the management; and
●
monitoring
the risks associated with management resources, structure, succession planning, development and selection processes, including evaluating
the effect the compensation structure may have on risk decisions.
Board
of Directors Meetings and Attendance
We
have no formal policy regarding director attendance at the annual meeting of stockholders. The Board of Directors held eighteen (18)
meetings in 2021 including three (3) meetings prior to filing our quarterly reports and one (1) meeting prior to filing this Annual Report.
All Board members were present at all of the meetings.
Section
16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section
16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company’s directors, executive officers and persons who own more than 10% of the Company’s
stock (collectively, “Reporting Persons”) to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and changes in ownership of the
Company’s common stock. Reporting Persons are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a)
reports they file. To the Company’s knowledge, based solely on its review of the copies of such reports received or written representations
from certain Reporting Persons that no other reports were required, the Company believes that during its fiscal year ended December 31,
2021 all Reporting Persons timely complied with all applicable filing requirements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING
FIRM
To
the Board of Directors and Stockholders of NewHydrogen, Inc.
Opinion
on the Financial Statements
We
have audited the accompanying balance sheets of NewHydrogen, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the related statements
of operations, shareholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the two-year period then ended, 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, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years
then ended 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 audits 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 the significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe our audits provide
a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical
Audit Matters
The
critical audit matter communicated below is a matter 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 opinion on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
As
discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company issues equity based awards in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation.
Auditing management’s calculation of the fair value of equity based awards can be a significant judgment given the
fact that the Company uses management estimates on various inputs to the calculation. Other less complex equity awards are based upon
the closing market price.
To evaluate the appropriateness of the fair
value determined by management, we examined and evaluated the inputs management used in calculating the fair value of the equity-based
award. We also ensured that the Company properly used the correct closing market price for other equity-based awards.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
This summary
of significant accounting policies of the Company is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The
financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity.
These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently
applied in the preparation of the financial statements.
Revenue Recognition
The Company
will recognize revenue when services are performed, and at the time of shipment of products, provided that evidence of an arrangement
exists, title and risk of loss have passed to the customer, fees are fixed or determinable, and collection of the related receivable is
reasonably assured. The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, whereby revenue will be recognized
as performance obligations are satisfied and customers obtain control of goods or services. However, in the event of a loss on a sale
is foreseen, the Company will recognize the loss as it is determined. To date, the Company has not had significant revenues and is in
the development stage.
Cash
and Cash Equivalent
The Company
considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Concentration
Risk
Cash includes
amounts deposited in financial institutions in excess of insurable Federal Deposit Insurance Company (FDIC) limits. At times throughout
the year, the Company may maintain cash balances in certain bank accounts in excess of FDIC limits. As of December 31, 2021, the cash
balance in excess of the FDIC limits was $ 6,395,710 . The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not
exposed to any significant credit risk in these accounts.
Use
of Estimates
The preparation
of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements. Significant estimates made in preparing these financial statements,
include the estimate of useful lives of property and equipment, the deferred tax valuation allowance, derivative liabilities and the fair
value of stock options. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated
at cost, and are depreciated using straight line over its estimated useful lives:

The Company
has patent applications to protect the inventions and processes behind its proprietary bio-based back-sheet, a protective covering for
the back of photovoltaic solar modules traditionally made from petroleum-based film. Intangible assets that have finite useful lives continue
to be amortized over their useful lives.

Amortization expense for the

Stock-Based
Compensation
The Company
measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an equity award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. All grants
under our stock-based compensation programs are accounted for at fair value and that cost is recognized over the period during which an
employee, consultant, or director are required to provide service in exchange for the award (the vesting period). Compensation expense
for options granted to employees and non-employees is determined in accordance with the standard as the fair value of the consideration
received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measured. Compensation expense for awards granted
is re-measured each period.
On March
24, 2015 and September 2, 2015, the Company granted 12,000,000 stock options to its employees and 3,950,000 stock options to its directors
for services.
On February
18, 2021, the Company granted 450,000,000
stock options to its employees for services at an exercise price of $ 0.091 .
On June 29, 2021, the Company amended the exercise price of the options to $ 0.028
per share. The
options expire, and all rights to purchase the shares shall terminate seven (7) years from the date of the repricing or upon termination
of employment. Half of the 400,000,000
options vested upon grant, and the remaining half of the option to purchase 200,000,000
shares of the Company’s common stock shall become exercisable in equal amounts over a twenty-four ( 24 )
month period during the term of the optionee’s employment, with the first installment of 8,333,333
shares vesting on March 18, 2021. The 50,000,000
options are exercisable in equal amounts over a thirty-six ( 36 )
month period during the term of the optionee’s employment, with the first installment of 1,388,889
shares vesting on March 18, 2021.
Determining
the appropriate fair value of the stock-based compensation requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected life of
the stock-based payment and stock price volatility. The Company used Black Scholes to value its stock option awards which incorporated
the Company’s stock price, volatility, U.S. risk-free rate, dividend rate, and estimated life. The stock options terminate seven
(7) years from the date of grant or upon termination of employment. As of December 31, 2021, 465,950,000 stock options were outstanding.
Research and Development
Research
and development costs are expensed as incurred. Total research and development costs were $ 1,221,134 and $ 177,722 for the years ended
December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Net
Earnings (Loss) per Share Calculations
Net earnings
(Loss) per share dictates the calculation of basic earnings (loss) per share and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings (loss) per
share are computed by dividing by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted net earnings (loss)
per share is computed similar to basic earnings (loss) per share except that the denominator is increased to include the effect of stock
options and stock-based awards (Note 4), plus the assumed conversion of convertible debt (Note 5).
For the
year ended December 31, 2021, the Company has included shares issuable from 465,950,000 stock options and 223,958,334 warrants, because
their impact on the income per share is dilutive.

For the
year ended December 31, 2020 the Company’s diluted loss per share is the same as the basic loss per share, and the inclusion of
any potential shares would have had an anti-dilutive effect due to the Company generating a loss. The Company has excluded 15,950,000
stock options, and the shares issuable from convertible debt of $ 2,739,790 , because their impact was anti-dilutive.

Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
Fair Value
of Financial Instruments requires disclosure of the fair value information, whether recognized in the balance sheet, where it is practicable
to estimate that value. As of December 31, 2021, the amounts reported for cash, inventory, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, and accrued
expenses, approximate the fair value because of their short maturities.
Fair value
is defined 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 Topic 820 established a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in
measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
(level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). These tiers include:
●
Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;
●
Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and
●
Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.
We measure
certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. As of December 31, 2021, there were no financial instruments to report.
The following

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Accounting for Derivatives
The Company
evaluates all of its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are 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 fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations.
For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses a probability weighted average series Binomial lattice formula pricing
models 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.
Recently Issued Accounting
Pronouncements
In May
2021, the FASB issued an amendment to accounting standards ASU 2021-04, (Subtopic 470-50) – Debt Modifications and Extinguishments”,
which requires that an entity apply the new guidance to a modification or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call
option that is a part of or directly related to a modification or an exchange of an existing debt. The amendments in this update are effective
for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption
is permitted for all entities. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of ASU 2021-04, which has no effect on the Company’s
financial statements.
Management
does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect
on the accompanying condensed financial statements.

CAPITAL STOCK
Preferred
Stock
On January
14, 2021, the
Board of Directors adopted a certificate of designation establishing the rights, preferences, privileges and other terms of 1,000 Series
B Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, providing for supermajority voting rights to holders of the Series B Preferred Stock.
The shares of the Series B Preferred Stock were issued to David Lee, Chief Executive Officer, Chairman of the Board, President
and acting Chief Financial Officer. The Series B Preferred Stock total purchase price is $ 0.10
for 1,000
shares of Series B Preferred Stock. The Series B Preferred stock was returned and expired on February
28, 2021 . As of December 31, 2021, there were no
shares outstanding.
On April
14, 2021, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the issuance of 1,000
shares of Series D Preferred Stock, par value $ 0.0001
per share, to David Lee, Chief Executive Officer, Chairman of the Board, President and acting Chief Financial Officer. The Series
D Preferred Stock total purchase price was $ 0.10
for 1,000
shares of Series D Preferred Stock. The Series D Preferred stock was returned and expired on May
29, 2021 . As of December 31, 2021, there were no
shares of Series D Preferred Stok outstanding.
The
Company estimated the fair value of the Series B and D Preferred Stock as of the valuation dates. The market approach was utilized to
arrive at an indication of equity value by using quoted market prices of the common shares as of January 14, 2021 and April 14, 2021.
The market cap of the Company represents 100% of the minority interest for all outstanding common shares. The Preferred Series B and
D Preferred Stock fair value is based on the value of the voting rights. The Preferred Series B and D Preferred Stock represents a controlling
voting interest in the Company and therefore determining the control premium is an indication of the security’s value. The control
premium is based on publicly traded companies or comparable entities in related industries, which have been acquired in an arm’s-length
transaction. The valuation of the Series B and D Preferred Stock were valued using the common stock price of $ 0.1587 and $ 0.0439 , respectively
and the market capitalization based on the fully diluted common and preferred shares outstanding. The total fair value of the voting
control of the Series B and Series D was $ 9,616,486 and $ 18,176,922 , respectively, for an aggregate total of $ 27,793,408 .
On
March 9, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with an investor for the exchange of convertible debt to equity. The investor exchanged
convertible notes in the amount of $ 2,462,060 , plus interest in the amount of $ 1,023,253 for an aggregate total of $ 3,485,313 for 34,853
shares of the Company’s Series C Preferred Stock with a stated face value of one hundred dollars ($ 100 ) (“share value”),
and is convertible into shares of fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock of the Company. The Series C preferred stock shall
be entitled to receive dividends pari passu with the holders of common stock, except upon liquidation, dissolution and winding up of
the Corporation. The Holder has the right, at any time, at its election, to convert shares of Series C Preferred Stock into common stock
at a conversion price of $ 0.0014 , and has no voting rights.
The
extinguishment of the convertible debt was recognized in the Company’s financials as a gain on settlement of convertible notes
and derivative. A valuation was prepared based on a stock price of $ 0.075 , with a volatility of 206.03 % , based on an estimated term of
5 years .

CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES
As of December

The Company
issued an unsecured convertible promissory note (the May 2014 Note”), in the amount of $ 500,000 on May 2, 2014. The May Note matured
on September 18, 2019 and was extended to May 2, 2022 on December 26, 2019. The May 2014 Note bears interest at 10 % per annum. The May
2014 Note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of a) the lesser of $0.25 per share of
common stock (subject to adjustment for stock splits, dividends, combinations and other similar transactions) or b) fifty percent (50%)
of the average three (3) lowest trading prices of three (3) separate trading days recorded after the effective date, or c) the lowest
effective price granted to any person or entity after the effective date to acquire common stock. If the Borrower fails to deliver shares
in accordance with the time frame of three (3) business days, the Lender, at any time prior to selling all of those shares, may rescind
any portion, in whole or in part of that particular conversion attributable to the unsold shares and have the rescinded conversion amount
returned to the Principal Sum with the rescinded conversion shares returned to the Borrower. In addition, for each conversion, in the
event shares are not delivered by the fourth business day (inclusive of the day of conversion), a penalty of $1,500 per day shall be assessed
for each day after the third business day (inclusive of the day of the conversion) until the shares are delivered. The fair value of the
May 2014 Note has been determined by using the Binomial lattice formula from the effective date of each tranche. During the year ended
December 31, 2021, the Company exchanged principal of $ 1,560 , plus accrued interest of $ 970 for preferred stock. The May 2014 Note, as
of December 31, 2021, was fully converted.
The Company
issued various unsecured convertible promissory notes (the 2015-2018 Notes”) in the aggregate amount of $ 2,145,000 on various dates
of January 30, 2015 through February 9, 2018. The 2015-2018 Notes mature on January 30, 2023 . The 2015-2018 Notes bears interest at 10 %
per annum. The 2015-2018 Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at conversion prices ranging from the a)
the lesser of $0.03 to $0.25 per share of common stock (subject to adjustment for stock splits, dividends, combinations and other similar
transactions) or b) fifty percent (50%) of the lowest trade price recorded since the original effective date, or c) the lowest effective
price per share granted to any person or entity after the effective date to acquire common stock. If the Borrower fails to deliver shares
in accordance within the time frame of three (3) business days, the Lender, at any time prior to selling all of those shares, may rescind
any portion, in whole or in part of that particular conversion attributable to the unsold shares and have the rescinded conversion amount
returned to the Principal Sum with the rescinded conversion shares returned to the Borrower. In addition, for each conversion, in the
event shares are not delivered by the fourth business day (inclusive of the day of conversion), a penalty of $1,500 per day shall be assessed
for each day after the third business day (inclusive of the day of the conversion) until the shares are delivered. The fair value of the
2015-2018 Notes have been determined by using the Binomial lattice formula from the effective date of each tranche. During the year ended
December 31, 2021, the Company exchanged the Note for Preferred Stock for principal in the amount of $ 1,960,500 , plus accrued interest
of $ 923,717 . The 2015-2018 Notes, as of December 31, 2021, was fully converted.

CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES (Continued)
During
the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company exchanged convertible notes in the amount of $ 2,462,060 in principal, plus accrued interest
of $ 1,023,253 for 34,853 shares of Series C Preferred Shares.

We evaluated
the financing transactions in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and determined that the conversion feature of the
convertible promissory note was not afforded the exemption for conventional convertible instruments due to its variable conversion rate.
The note has no explicit limit on the number of shares issuable, so they did not meet the conditions set forth in current accounting standards
for equity classification. The Company elected to recognize the note under paragraph 815-15-25-4, whereby, there would be a separation
into a host contract and derivative instrument. The Company elected to initially and subsequently measure the note in its entirety at
fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. The Company recorded a derivative liability representing the imputed interest
associated with the embedded derivative. The derivative liability is adjusted periodically per the stock price fluctuations.

The convertible
notes issued and described in Note 5 do not have fixed settlement provisions because their conversion prices are not fixed. The conversion
feature has been characterized as derivative liabilities to be re-measured at the end of every reporting period with the change in value
reported in the statement of operations.
During
the year ended December 31, 2021, as a result of the convertible notes (“Notes”) issued that were accounted for as derivative
liabilities, we determined that the fair value of the conversion feature of the convertible notes at issuance was $ 180,004 , based upon
a Binomial-Model calculation. We recorded the full value of the derivative as a liability at issuance with an offset to valuation discount,
which will be amortized over the life of the Notes.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company
rents office space on a yearly basis with a monthly rent payment in the amount of $ 550 .
In
the normal course of business, the Company may be involved in legal proceedings, claims and assessments arising. Such matters are subject
to many uncertainties, and outcomes are not predictable with assurance. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these
matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
As of December
31, 2021, there were no legal proceedings against the Company.

INCOME TAXES
On December
22, 2017, the U.S. enacted the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”), which significantly changed U.S. tax law. The Act lowered
the Company’s U.S. statutory federal income tax rate from 35 % to 21 % effective January 1, 2018.
The Company
files income tax returns in the U.S. Federal jurisdiction, and the state of California. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer
subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2018.
Included
in the balance at December 31, 2021, are no tax positions for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain, but for which there
is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility. Because of the impact of deferred tax accounting, other than interest and penalties,
the disallowance of the shorter deductibility period would not affect the annual effective tax rate but would accelerate the payment of
cash to the taxing authority to an earlier period.
The Company’s
policy is to recognize interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses.
During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company did not recognize interest and penalties.
As of December
31, 2021, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $ 11,911,000 that may be offset against future taxable income.
No tax benefit has been reported in the December 31, 2021 financial statements since the potential tax benefit is offset by a valuation
allowance of the same amount.
The income
tax provision differs from the amount of income tax determined by applying the U.S. federal and state income tax rate to pretax income
from continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 due to the following:

Deferred
taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible differences and operating loss and
tax credit carry-forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the
difference 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 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.
