Note
1 – Organization and Operations
Creek
Road Miners, Inc.
Creek
Road Miners, Inc., formerly known as Wizard Brands, Inc., formerly GoEnergy, Inc., Wizard World, Inc., and Wizard Entertainment, Inc.
(“Creek Road” or the “Company”) was incorporated on May 2, 2001, under the laws of the State of Delaware. The
Company, through its operating subsidiary, is a producer of pop culture and live multimedia conventions across North America. Effective
October 5, 2018, the Company changed its name to Wizard Entertainment, Inc. On July 29, 2020, the Company changed its name to Wizard
Brands, Inc. On July 9, 2021, the Company changed its name to Creek Road Miners, Inc.
Recent
Developments
During
the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company decided to enter the consumer category of digital products known as Non-Fungible Tokens
(“NFTs”). NFTs are collectibles where various objects (including pictures, music and video) are digitized. The digital version
of the object is sold as a unique, blockchain-authenticated collectible. As part of a move to expand the current NFT minting activities
into mining cryptocurrencies, the Company changed its name from Wizard Brands, Inc. to Creek Road Miners, Inc. as noted above. The Company
intends to develop and operate, “scaled-up,” bitcoin manufacturing facilities using natural gas to power operations. The
first Creek Road Miners facility is expected to be completed and fully operational by the end of 2021 and followed by an aggressive schedule
for developing additional sites.
Note
2 – Going Concern Analysis
Going
Concern Analysis
The
Company had a loss from operations of $ 4,322,080 and $ 574,057 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. On June
30, 2021, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $ 1.6 million and a working capital deficit of approximately $ 4.3 million.
We have evaluated the significance of these conditions in relation to our ability to meet our obligations, which had previously raised
doubts about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern through August 2022. However, the Company believes that the effects
of the expansion of virtual activities and e-commerce along with the entry into new business verticals will guide the Company in a positive
direction as we continue to strive to attain profitability.
Because of the ongoing situation with the Covid-19 virus, the Company was unable to produce any live events from and after the First
Quarter of 2020. In the face of the impact of Covid-19 on live events generally, the Company has focused on producing virtual events.
The first such virtual event was an interactive fan experience which took place on March 31, 2020 and since that time the Company has
produced approximately 400 virtual events. In addition, the Company has moved into e-commerce with online sales of collectables and the
creation of the “Wizard World Vault” as a site for consumers to purchase pop-culture memorabilia and collectables.
On
March 29, 2021, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Leviston Purchase Agreement”) with Leviston
Resources LLC (“Leviston”) dated March 26, 2021, pursuant to which the Company sold to Leviston, and the Leviston purchased
from the Company, 5,000 shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock, par value $ 0.0001 per share Series B Preferred Stock
with an aggregate stated value of $ 5,400,000 , a Series B Preferred Stock Purchase Warrant to purchase 5,000 shares of Series B Preferred
Stock, having a term expiring on March 26, 2023 and a per share exercise price (subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock
splits, mergers or reorganizations, and similar changes affecting shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $ 0.0001 per share
and/or securities entitling the holder thereof to acquire shares of Common Stock, as applicable) of $ 1,000 (the “Series 1 Warrant”),
and a Series B Preferred Stock Purchase Warrant to purchase 5,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, having a term expiring on March
26, 2024 and a per share exercise price (subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock splits, mergers or reorganizations, and
similar changes affecting shares of Common Stock and/or securities entitling the holder thereof to acquire shares of Common Stock, as
applicable) of $ 1,000 (the “Series 2 Warrant” and together with the Series 1 Warrant, the “Warrants,” and together
with the Closing Shares, the “Securities”). The aggregate purchase price for the Securities is $ 5,000,000 , which Leviston
will pay as follows: $ 2,000,000 on the Closing Date; $ 500,000 on or before the date that is three business days from the date that the
Company files a registration statement relating to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Closing Shares and the
shares of Series B Preferred Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants; and $ 2,500,000 on or before the date that is three business
days from the date that such registration statement is declared effective in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Registration
Rights Agreement.
F- 7
On
July 16, 2021, the parties to the Leviston Purchase Agreement amended the agreements as necessary to achieve the following results: The
Series B Preferred Stock is now convertible at a price (as adjusted, “Series B Conversion Price”) equal to the lesser of
(x) $4.52 and (y) 85% of the lowest variable weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the Common Stock on a trading day during
the 10 trading days prior to and ending on, and including, the date of conversion, subject to a conversion price floor of $1.00, but
not to exceed $1.50, subject to further adjustment in the event that the Company, subject to certain exemptions, disposes of or issues
any common stock or securities convertible into, exercisable, or exchangeable for common stock for no consideration or for consideration
less than the applicable Series B Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance.
In
addition to its cost containment strategies, the Company identified opportunities to rapidly move into the areas of (i) retailing collectables,
(ii) providing virtual opportunities to fans to interact with celebrities, (iii) creating live and virtual events and conferences focused
on new subject matter and affinities, and (iv) engaging in M&A opportunities. The Company initiated these activities in 2020.
Additionally,
if necessary, management believes that both related parties (management and members of the Board of Directors of the Company) and potential
external sources of debt and/or equity financing may be obtained based on management’s history of being able to raise capital from
both internal and external sources coupled with current favorable market conditions, It is understood however, that although there is
a recent history of related-parties providing a source of financing, there is no absolute certainty that any such related-party financing
can be obtained on a going-forward basis. Therefore, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared
assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.
The
condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability
and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the matters discussed herein. While
the Company believes in the viability of management’s strategy to generate sufficient revenue, control costs and the ability to
raise additional funds if necessary. There can be no assurances to that effect. The Company’s ability to continue as a going
concern is dependent upon the ability to further implement the business plan, generate sufficient revenues and to control operating expenses.
Note
3 – Significant and Critical Accounting Policies and Practices
The
management of the Company is responsible for the selection and use of appropriate accounting policies and their application. Critical
accounting policies and practices are those that are both most important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition
and results and require management’s most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates
about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. The Company’s significant and critical accounting policies and practices
are disclosed below as required by generally accepted accounting principles.
Basis
of Presentation - Unaudited Interim Financial Information
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, and in accordance
with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) with respect to Form 10-Q
and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete
financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements furnished reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented.
Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2020 and notes
thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, as filed with the SEC on March
29, 2021.
F- 8
Use
of Estimates and Assumptions and Critical Accounting Estimates and Assumptions
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Principles
of Consolidation
The
condensed consolidated financial statements include all accounts of the entities as of the reporting period ending date(s) and for the
reporting period(s).
All
inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated. Non–controlling interest represents the minority equity investment
in the Company’s subsidiaries, plus the minority investors’ share of the net operating results and other components of equity
relating to the non–controlling interest.
As
of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the aggregate non-controlling interest in ButtaFyngas was ($ 12,498 ) . The non-controlling interest
is separately disclosed on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
The
Company minimizes its credit risk associated with cash by periodically evaluating the credit quality of its primary financial institution.
The balance at times may exceed federally insured limits.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
For
purpose of this disclosure, the fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current
transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced sale or liquidation. The carrying amount of the Company’s short-term
financial instruments approximates fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity for these instruments.
Accounts
Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts
receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. The Company generally does not require collateral
to support customer receivables. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon a review of the outstanding accounts
receivable, historical collection information and existing economic conditions. The Company determines if receivables are past due based
on days outstanding, and amounts are written off when determined to be uncollectible by management. The maximum accounting loss from
the credit risk associated with accounts receivable is the amount of the receivable recorded, which is the face amount of the receivable
net of the allowance for doubtful accounts. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the allowance for doubtful accounts was $ 0 .
Inventories
Inventories
are stated at average cost using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) valuation method. Inventory was comprised of the following:

F- 9
Property
and Equipment
Property
and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for major additions and betterments are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are charged
to operations as incurred. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method (after taking into account their respective estimated
residual values) over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets as follows:

(*) Amortized on a
straight-line basis over the term of the lease or the estimated useful lives, whichever period is shorter.
Upon
sale or retirement of property and equipment, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain
or loss is reflected in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Intangible
assets
Intangible
assets represent intangible assets acquired in connection with the Company’s purchase of Jevo patents and technology. The transaction
was not a business combination or acquisition of a business.
The
intangible assets are amortized using a straight-line method consistent with the expected future cash flows related to the intangible
asset, which has been determined to be ten ( 10 ) years. Amortized intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes
in circumstances exist that indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. When indicators of impairment exist, an
estimate of undiscounted net cash flows is used in measuring whether the carrying amount of the asset or related asset group is recoverable.
Measurement
of the amount of impairment, if any, is based upon the difference between the asset or asset group’s carrying value and fair value.
Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques, including market and income approaches as considered necessary. No impairment
has been recorded as of June 30, 2021.
Investments
- Cost Method, Equity Method and Joint Venture
In
accordance with sub-topic 323-10 of the FASB ASC (“Sub-topic 323-10”), the Company accounts for investments in common stock
of an investee for which the Company has significant influence in the operating or financial policies even though the Company holds 50 %
or less of the common stock or in-substance common stock.
Method
of Accounting
Investments
held in stock of entities other than subsidiaries, namely corporate joint ventures and other non-controlled entities usually are accounted
for by one of three methods: (i) the fair value method (addressed in Topic 320), (ii) the equity method (addressed in Topic 323), or
(iii) the cost method (addressed in Subtopic 325-20). Pursuant to Paragraph 323-10-05-5, the equity method tends to be most appropriate
if an investment enables the investor to influence the operating or financial policies of the investee.
F- 10
Investment
in CONtv
The
Company currently holds a limited and passive interest of 10 % in CONtv, a joint venture with third parties and Bristol Capital, LLC (a
related party controlled by a member of the Board). CONtv is a digital network devoted to fans of pop culture entertainment and is inactive.
For
the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company recognized $ 0 losses from this venture, respectively.
As
of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the investment in CONtv was $ 0 .
As
of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the amount due to CONtv was $ 0 and $ 224,241 , respectively.
Fair
Value of Measurements
The
Company follows ASC 820-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification to measure the fair value of its financial instruments and disclosures
about fair value of its financial instruments. ASC 820-10 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency
and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, ASC 820-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes
the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three (3) broad levels. The three (3) levels of fair value hierarchy
defined by ASC 820-10 are described below:
Level
1
Quoted
market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.
Level
2
Pricing
inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the
reporting date.
Level
3
Pricing
inputs that are generally unobservable inputs and not corroborated by market data.
Financial
assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar
techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.
The
fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and
the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than
one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of
the instrument.
The
carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, accounts receivable, inventory, prepaid expenses
and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these
instruments.
Transactions
involving related parties typically cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm’s-length basis, as the requisite conditions
of competitive, free-market dealings may not exist. However, in the case of the convertible promissory note discussed in Note 5, the
Company obtained a fairness opinion from an independent third party which supports that the transaction was carried out at an arm’s
length basis.
Revenue
Recognition and Cost of Revenues
The
Company follows the FASB Accounting Standards Codification ASC 606 for revenue recognition. The Company will recognize revenue when it
is realized or realizable and earned. The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when all of the following criteria
are met:
1)
Identify
the contract with a customer
A
contract with a customer exists when (i) the Company enters into an enforceable contract with a customer that defines each party’s
rights regarding the services to be transferred and identifies the payment terms related to these services, (ii) the contract has commercial
substance and, (iii) the Company determines that collection of substantially all consideration for services that are transferred is probable
based on the customer’s intent and ability to pay the promised consideration. The Company applies judgment in determining the customer’s
ability and intention to pay, which is based on a variety of factors including the customer’s historical payment experience or,
in the case of a new customer, published credit and financial information pertaining to the customer.
F- 11
2)
Identify
the performance obligations in the contract
Performance
obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the services that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable
of being distinct, whereby the customer can benefit from the service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily
available from third parties or from the Company, and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the services
is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. To the extent a contract includes multiple promised services, the Company
must apply judgment to determine whether promised services are capable of being distinct and distinct in the context of the contract.
If these criteria are not met the promised services are accounted for as a combined performance obligation.
3)
Determine
the transaction price
The
transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which the Company will be entitled in exchange for transferring services
to the customer. To the extent the transaction price includes variable consideration, the Company estimates the amount of variable consideration
that should be included in the transaction price utilizing either the expected value method or the most likely amount method depending
on the nature of the variable consideration. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price if, in the Company’s judgment,
it is probable that a significant future reversal of cumulative revenue under the contract will not occur. None of the Company’s
contracts as of June 30, 2021 contained a significant financing component.
4)
Allocate
the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract
If
the contract contains a single performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation.
However, if a series of distinct services that are substantially the same qualifies as a single performance obligation in a contract
with variable consideration, the Company must determine if the variable consideration is attributable to the entire contract or to a
specific part of the contract. For example, a bonus or penalty may be associated with one or more, but not all, distinct services promised
in a series of distinct services that forms part of a single performance obligation. Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations
require an allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation based on a relative standalone selling price basis unless
the transaction price is variable and meets the criteria to be allocated entirely to a performance obligation or to a distinct service
that forms part of a single performance obligation. The Company determines standalone selling price based on the price at which the performance
obligation is sold separately. If the standalone selling price is not observable through past transactions, the Company estimates the
standalone selling price taking into account available information such as market conditions and internally approved pricing guidelines
related to the performance obligations.
5)
Recognize
revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation
The
Company satisfies performance obligations either over time or at a point in time. Revenue is recognized at the time the related performance
obligation is satisfied by transferring a promised service to a customer.
Convention
revenue is generally earned upon completion of the convention. Unearned convention revenue is deposits received for conventions that
have not yet taken place, which are fully or partially refundable depending upon the terms and conditions of the agreements.
The
Company recognizes cost of revenues in the period in which the revenues was earned. In the event the Company incurs cost of revenues
for conventions that are yet to occur, the Company records such amounts as prepaid expenses and such prepaid expenses are expensed during
the period the convention takes place.

Shipping
and Handling Costs
The
Company accounts for shipping and handling fees in accordance with paragraph 605-45-45-19 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.
While amounts charged to customers for shipping products are included in revenues, the related costs are classified in cost of revenue
as incurred.
Shipping
and handling costs were $ 44,126 and $ 0 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Equity–based
compensation
The
Company recognizes compensation expense for all equity–based payments in accordance with ASC 718 “ Compensation –
Stock Compensation ”. Under fair value recognition provisions, the Company recognizes equity–based compensation net of
an estimated forfeiture rate and recognizes compensation cost only for those shares expected to vest over the requisite service period
of the award.
Restricted
stock awards are granted at the discretion of the Company. These awards are restricted as to the transfer of ownership and generally
vest over the requisite service periods, typically over a four-year period (vesting on a straight–line basis). The fair value of
a stock award is equal to the fair market value of a share of Company stock on the grant date.
The
fair value of an option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black–Scholes option valuation model. The Black–Scholes
option valuation model requires the development of assumptions that are input into the model. These assumptions are the expected stock
volatility, the risk–free interest rate, the expected life of the option, the dividend yield on the underlying stock and the expected
forfeiture rate. Expected volatility is calculated based on the historical volatility of the Company’s Common stock over the expected
option life and other appropriate factors. The expected option term is computed using the “simplified” method as permitted
under the provisions of ASC 718-10-S99. The Company uses the simplified method to calculate expected term of share options and similar
instruments as the Company does not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected
term. Risk–free interest rates are calculated based on continuously compounded risk–free rates for the appropriate term.
The dividend yield is assumed to be zero as the Company has never paid or declared any cash dividends on the Common stock of the Company
and does not intend to pay dividends on the Common stock in the foreseeable future. The expected forfeiture rate is estimated based on
historical experience.
Determining
the appropriate fair value model and calculating the fair value of equity–based payment awards requires the input of the subjective
assumptions described above. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of equity–based payment awards represent management’s
best estimates, which involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment. As a result, if factors change
and the Company uses different assumptions, the equity–based compensation could be materially different in the future. In addition,
the Company is required to estimate the expected forfeiture rate and recognize expense only for those shares expected to vest. If the
actual forfeiture rate is materially different from the Company’s estimate, the equity–based compensation could be significantly
different from what the Company has recorded in the current period.
F- 13
Income
Taxes
The
Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, “ Income Taxes .”
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the
financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred income tax assets and
liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences
are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in
income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets
to the amount expected to be realized.
FASB
ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax
positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than
not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2021 and December
31, 2020. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. No amounts
were accrued for the payment of interest and penalties as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The Company is currently not aware
of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company is
subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.
The
Company may be subject to potential examination by federal, state, and city taxing authorities in the areas of income taxes. These potential
examinations may include questioning the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions, and compliance
with federal, state, and city tax laws. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits
will materially change over the next twelve months.
The
Company is no longer subject to tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2018.
Earnings
per Share
Earnings
per share (“EPS”) is the amount of earnings attributable to each share of common stock. For convenience, the term is used
to refer to either earnings or loss per share. EPS is computed pursuant to Section 260-10-45 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.
Pursuant to ASC Paragraphs 260-10-45-10 through 260-10-45-16, basic EPS shall be computed by dividing income available to common stockholders
(the numerator) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding (the denominator) during the period. Income available to
common stockholders shall be computed by deducting both the dividends declared in the period on preferred stock (whether or not paid)
and the dividends accumulated for the period on cumulative preferred stock (whether or not earned) from income from continuing operations
(if that amount appears in the income statement) and also from net income. The computation of diluted EPS is similar to the computation
of basic EPS except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding
if the dilutive potential common shares had been issued during the period to reflect the potential dilution that could occur from common
shares issuable through contingent shares issuance arrangement, stock options or warrants.
The
following table shows the outstanding dilutive common shares excluded from the diluted net income (loss) per share calculation as they

Adopted Accounting Guidance
In
December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes(Topic 740): “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes” ,
which is intended to simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and
by clarifying and amending existing guidance to improve consistent application. This ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods
within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. Certain amendments within this ASU are required
to be applied on a retrospective basis, certain other amendments are required to be applied on a modified retrospective basis and all
other amendments on a prospective basis. The adoption of ASU 2019-12 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial
statement presentation or disclosures.
Recently
Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In
March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, “ Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate
Reform on Financial Reporting .” ASU 2020-04 provides optional expedients and exceptions to account for contracts, hedging relationships
and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate if certain criteria are met. The amendments of ASU No. 2020-04
are effective immediately, as of March 12, 2020, and may be applied prospectively to contract modifications made and hedging relationships
entered into on or before December 31, 2022. The Company is evaluating the impact that the amendments of this standard would have on
the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In
August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—” Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives
and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an
Entity’s Own Equity” . This ASU amends the guidance on convertible instruments and the derivatives scope exception for
contracts in an entity’s own equity, and also improves and amends the related EPS guidance for both Subtopics. The ASU will be
effective for annual reporting periods after December 15, 2021 and interim periods within those annual periods and early adoption is
permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on its consolidated financial statements.
Management
has evaluated all recent accounting pronouncements as issued by the FASB in the form of Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”)
through the date these financial statements were available to be issued and found no recent accounting pronouncements issued, but not
yet effective accounting pronouncements, when adopted, will have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company.

Agreement
On
December 29, 2016, the Company entered into a Consulting Services Agreement (the “Consulting Agreement”) with Bristol Capital,
LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Bristol”) managed by Paul L. Kessler, the Chairman of the Company. Pursuant to
the Consulting Agreement, Mr. Kessler will serve as Executive Chairman of the Company. The initial term of the Agreement is from December
29, 2016 through March 28, 2017 (the “Initial Term”). The term of the Consulting Agreement will be automatically extended
for additional terms of 90-day periods each (each a “Renewal Term” and together with the Initial Term, the “Term”),
unless either the Company or Bristol gives prior written notice of non-renewal to the other party no later than thirty (30) days prior
to the expiration of the then current Term.
During
the Term, the Company will pay Bristol a monthly fee (the “Monthly Fee”) of Eighteen Thousand Seven Hundred Fifty and No/100
Dollars ($ 18,750 ) . This agreement has been amended so that the monthly fee owed to Bristol may now, at the option of the Company, be
paid in preferred stock.
In
addition, upon execution of the Consulting Agreement, the Company granted to Bristol options to purchase up to an aggregate of 30,000
shares of the Company’s common stock.
During
the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company incurred expenses of approximately $ 112,500 for each period for services provided
by Bristol, respectively. On November 22, 2018, the Board of Directors of the Company decided to issue 210,982 shares of Preferred stock
(“2018 Bristol shares”) for settlement of the outstanding fees due to Bristol totaling $ 496,875 . At June 30, 2021 and December

Securities
Purchase Agreement
Effective
December 1, 2016, the Company entered into the Purchase Agreement with Bristol Investment Fund, Ltd. (the “Purchaser”), an
entity controlled by the Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors, pursuant to which the Company sold to the Purchaser, for
a cash purchase price of $ 2,500,000 , securities comprising: (i) the Debenture, (ii) Series A Warrants, and (iii) Series B Warrants. Pursuant
to the Purchase Agreement, the Company paid $ 25,000 to the Purchaser and issued to the Purchaser 25,000 shares of Common Stock with a
grant date fair value of $ 85,000 to cover the Purchaser’s legal fees. The Company recorded as a debt discount of $ 25,791 related
to the cash paid and the relative fair value of the shares issued to Purchaser for legal fees.
(i)
Debenture
The
Debenture with an initial principal balance of $ 2,500,000 , due December 30, 2018 (the “Maturity Date”), will accrue interest
on the aggregate unconverted and then outstanding principal amount of the Debenture at the rate of 12 % per annum. Interest is payable
quarterly on (i) January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1, beginning on January 1, 2017, (ii) on each date the Purchaser converts, in
whole or in part, the Debenture into Common Stock (as to that principal amount then being converted), and (iii) on the day that is 20
days following the Company’s notice to redeem some or all of the of the outstanding principal of the Debenture (only as to that
principal amount then being redeemed) and on the Maturity Date. The Debenture is convertible into shares of the Company’s Common
Stock at any time at the option of the holder, at an initial conversion price of $3.00 (as converted) per share, subject to adjustment.
In the event of default occurs, the conversion price shall be the lesser of (i) the initial conversion price of $ 3.00 and (ii) 50 % of
the average of the 3 lowest trading prices during the 20 trading days immediately prior to the applicable conversion date. The debenture
contains a “ratchet” provisions that adjusts the conversion rate of the debenture to the lowest rate the Company has agreed
to issue stock. The effect of repricing board and employee options to $ 0.25 reset the conversion rates of the debenture to $ 0.25 . In
light of the financial stress Covid-19 has placed on the Company the holder of the debenture has agreed to not require payment due under
each of the outstanding debenture until December 31, 2022.
(ii)
Series A Warrants
The
Series A Warrants to acquire up to 833,333 shares of Common Stock at the Series A Initial Exercise Price of $ 3.00 and expiring on December
1, 2021 . The Warrants may be exercised immediately upon the issuance date, upon the option of the holder. The exercise price has now
been adjusted to $ 0.25 and the exercise date has been extended.
(iii)
Series B Warrants
The

Paycheck
Protection Program
On
March 27, 2020 the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “ CARES Act ”) was enacted and included a
provision for the Small Business Administration (“ SBA ”) to implement its Paycheck Protection Program (“ PPP ”).
The PPP provides small businesses with funds to pay payroll costs, including some benefits over a covered period of up to 24 weeks. Funds
received under the PPP may also be used to pay interest on mortgages, rent, and utilities. Subject to certain criteria being met, all
or a portion of the loan may be forgiven. The loans bear interest at an annual rate of one percent ( 1 %), are due two (2) years from the
date of issuance, and all payments are deferred for the first six (6) months of the loan. Any unforgiven balance of loan principal and
accrued interest at the end of the six (6) month loan deferral period is amortized in equal monthly installments over the remaining 18-months
of the loan term. On April 30, 2020, the Company closed a $ 197,600 SBA guaranteed PPP loan. The Company expects to use the loan proceeds
as permitted and apply for and receive forgiveness for the entire loan amount. As of June 30, 2021, the outstanding balance under the
loan was $ 197,600 .
On
February 25, 2021, the Company closed on a $ 197,662 SBA guaranteed PPP2 loan. The Company expects to use the loan proceeds as permitted

Agreement, the Company paid $ 25,400 to the Purchaser to cover the Purchaser’s legal fees. The Company recorded as a debt discount
of $ 25,400 related to the cash paid and the relative fair value of the shares issued to Purchaser for legal fees.

whole or in part, the Debenture into Common Stock (as to that principal amount then being converted), and (iii) on the day that is 20
days following the Company’s notice to redeem some or all of the of the outstanding principal of the Debenture (only as to that
principal amount then being redeemed) and on the Maturity Date. The Debenture is convertible into shares of the Company’s Common
Stock at any time at the option of the holder, at an initial conversion price of $ 2.50 (as converted) per share, subject to adjustment.
In the event of default occurs, the conversion price shall be the lesser of (i) the initial conversion price of $ 2.50 and (ii) 50 % of
the average of the 3 lowest trading prices during the 20 trading days immediately prior to the applicable conversion date. In July 2020,
the Purchaser agreed to extend the debenture a year as well as forbear any collection on the debenture up to December 30, 2022. The subject
debenture contains a “ratchet” provisions that adjusts the conversion rates of the notes to the lowest rate the Company has
agreed to issue stock. The effect of repricing board and employee options to $ 0.25 reset the conversion rates the note to $ 0.25 . In light

outstanding debenture until December 31, 2022.

Note
9 – Operating Leases
On
June 16, 2016, the Company entered into a Standard Multi-Tenant Sublease (“Sublease”) with Bristol Capital Advisors, an entity
controlled by the Company’s Chairman of the Board. The leased premises are owned by an unrelated third party and Bristol Capital
Advisors passes the lease costs down to the Company. The term of the Sublease is for 5 years and 3 months beginning on July 1, 2016 commencing
with monthly payments of $ 8,118 . During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company paid lease obligations $ 28,129 and $ 23,812 ,
respectively, under the Sublease.
On
April 28, 2020, upon acquisition of the Jevo assets, the Company entered into a lease agreement with a third party. The term of the lease
is for 5 years beginning on May 1, 2020 commencing with a three-month rent holiday followed by monthly payments of $ 3,900 with an approximate
2 % escalation clause. During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company paid lease obligations $ 8,652 and $ 0 , respectively,
under the lease.
We
determine if an arrangement contains a lease at inception. Right of use (“ROU”) assets represent our right to use an underlying
asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and
liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term.
Our
leases consist of leaseholds on office space. We utilized a portfolio approach in determining our discount rate. The portfolio approach
takes into consideration the range of the term, the range of the lease payments, the category of the underlying asset and our estimated
incremental borrowing rate, which is derived from information available at the lease commencement date, in determining the present value
of lease payments. We also give consideration to our recent debt issuances as well as publicly available data for instruments with similar
characteristics when calculating our incremental borrowing rates.
F- 20
Our
lease term includes options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Leases with a term of
12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet, per the election of the practical expedient noted above.
We
recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. We recognize variable lease payments in the period
in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. Variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate are initially measured
using the index or rate at the commencement date, otherwise variable lease payments are recognized in the period incurred.

of Series B Preferred Stock (without regard to any limitations on exercise thereof, including any beneficial ownership limitations) immediately
before the record date for such distribution or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock
are to be determined to receive the distribution, provided that if the distribution would result in the holder exceeding then-applicable
beneficial ownership limitation, the holder shall not be entitled to participate in such distribution to such extent and such distribution
to such extent shall be held in abeyance until such time, if ever, as the holder’s right thereto would not result in the holder
exceeding the then-applicable beneficial ownership limitation.

risks on such accounts.
