in the Company.
The business, financial condition and operating results of the Company can be affected by a number of factors, whether
−Removed: currently known or unknown, including but not limited to those described below and in the Form 10-K and Form S-1, under the headings
−Removed: Risk Factors ”, which risk factors from the Form 10-K and Form S-1 are incorporated by reference in this Item 1A.
−Removed: Risk Factors, subject to updates to such risk factors as provided below, any one or more of which could, directly or indirectly, cause
−Removed: the Company’s actual financial condition and operating results to vary materially from past, or from anticipated future, financial
−Removed: condition and operating results.
−Removed: Any of these factors, in whole or in part, could materially and adversely affect the Company’s
−Removed: business, financial condition, operating results and stock price.
−Removed: Related to Preemptive Rights
−Removed: shareholders have statutory preemptive rights and our failure to provide shareholders notice of their right to exercise such rights or
−Removed: the exercise by such shareholders of such rights, could create dilution to existing shareholders, uncertainty regarding our capitalization
−Removed: structure, and result in the value of our common stock declining in value or being less than similarly situated companies whose governing
−Removed: documents do not provide for preemptive rights.
−Removed: to Section 21.208 of the Texas Business Organizations Code (TBOC), shareholders of Texas corporations formed prior to September
−Removed: 1, 2003, like the Company, have a preemptive right to acquire unissued or treasury shares, to the extent a Texas corporation’s
−Removed: Articles of Incorporation do not limit or deny such right.
−Removed: The Company’s Articles of Incorporation do not limit or deny the statutory
−Removed: right of preemption and as such our shareholders have preemptive rights.
−Removed: Specifically, the shareholders of the Company have a preemptive
−Removed: right to acquire proportional amounts of the Company’s unissued or treasury shares on the decision of the Company’s Board
−Removed: of Directors to issue the shares, provided that no preemptive right exists with respect to:
−Removed: (1) shares issued or granted as compensation
−Removed: to a director, officer, agent, or employee of the Company or a subsidiary or affiliate of the Company;
−Removed: (2) shares issued or granted to
−Removed: satisfy conversion or option rights created to provide compensation to a director, officer, agent, or employee of the corporation or
−Removed: a subsidiary or affiliate of the Company;
−Removed: or (3) shares sold, issued, or granted by the Company for consideration other than money.
−Removed: the sale of the Offering Shares and Offering Warrants in the offering did not meet one of the exceptions above, such securities are subject
−Removed: to statutory preemptive rights.
−Removed: An action brought against the Company, the Board of Directors or an officer, shareholder, or agent of
−Removed: the Company, or an owner of a beneficial interest in shares of the Company, for the violation of a preemptive right of a shareholder
−Removed: under the TBOC must be brought not later than the earlier of:
−Removed: (1) the first anniversary of the date written notice is given to each shareholder
−Removed: whose preemptive right was violated;
−Removed: or (2) the fourth anniversary of the latest of:
−Removed: (A) the date the Company issued the shares, securities,
−Removed: (B) the date the Company sold the shares, securities, or rights;
−Removed: or (C) the date the Company otherwise distributed the shares,
−Removed: securities, or rights.
−Removed: The exercise of shareholders preemptive rights could cause dilution to existing shareholders.
−Removed: Actions brought
−Removed: by shareholders to enforce their preemptive rights may be costly or time consuming, and may take management’s focus away from the
−Removed: Company’s operations.
−Removed: The Company has to date, not provided any shareholders any notice of any preemptive rights and as such, any
−Removed: and all issuances of the Company’s securities (other than those exempt from the preemptive rights described above) during the past
−Removed: four years are subject to preemptive rights of shareholders, in the event any shareholders bring an action against the Company to enforce
−Removed: Shareholders may therefore be subject to dilution in the event any shareholders file an action to enforce their preemptive
−Removed: rights in connection with prior issuances, are successful in such action, and acquire additional securities of the Company.
−Removed: the Company, its officers and directors, and in some cases its shareholders, may face liability, penalties and costs in connection with
−Removed: the continued failure of the Company to provide notice of shareholders’
−Removed: rights to preemptive rights.
−Removed: Company is required, pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement (“
−Removed: Purchase Agreement ”) entered into
−Removed: with the Purchasers, to take prompt action to seek shareholder approval to amend its Articles of Incorporation to terminate shareholders
−Removed: preemptive rights and investors in the offering waived their statutory preemptive rights, in consideration for anti-dilutive rights which
−Removed: require the Company to issue them additional shares of common stock to maintain their percentage ownership in the Company prior to any
−Removed: preemptive right issuance, for no consideration, if any statutory preemptive rights are exercised by any shareholder of the Company,
−Removed: which will expire at such time, if ever, as the Company has adopted an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation to terminate such statutory
−Removed: preemptive rights.
−Removed: As such, shareholders should not assume that such preemptive rights will continue to exist in the future, or that
−Removed: such shareholders will be able to acquire any securities in the future, pursuant to such preemptive rights which are currently provided
−Removed: for under the TBOC.
−Removed: addition to the Private Offering, the Company completed the sale of 18.9 million common shares during its fiscal year ended September
−Removed: 30, 2018 at $1.00 per unit.
−Removed: To date, no preemptive rights claims have been made by shareholders as a result of these sales.
−Removed: that sale, the Company had 7.2 million common shares outstanding and eligible for preemptive rights per the criteria outlined above.
−Removed: addition to possible dilution caused by shareholders of the Company taking action to enforce their preemptive rights or anti-dilution
−Removed: rights of the investors in the Private Offering in connection with the exercise of preemptive rights by any other shareholder, such rights
−Removed: could create uncertainty regarding our capitalization structure, and result in the value of our common stock declining in value or being
−Removed: less than similarly situated companies whose governing documents do not provide for preemptive rights.
−Removed: exercise of statutory preemptive rights by shareholders may require us to sell shares or other securities below the then current trading
−Removed: price of our common stock, or for nominal consideration, and may cause significant dilution to current and future shareholders.
−Removed: Company may fail in its efforts to obtain shareholder approval to eliminate preemptive rights thereby potentially limiting its ability
−Removed: to raise capital in the future or incur potential liability.
−Removed: Company is required, by 180 days after the closing of the Private Offering (i.e., by October 13, 2021), to seek shareholder approval
−Removed: to remove preemptive rights by either amending its Articles of Incorporation or redomiciling its state of incorporation.
−Removed: the Company is unsuccessful in obtaining the required shareholder approval to amend its Articles of Incorporation or to redomicile the
−Removed: Company to remove preemptive rights, the Company’s ability to raise capital may be impacted and the terms of such financing may
−Removed: be under terms that are less favorable to the Company.
−Removed: In addition, there is a risk of liability to shareholders with preemptive rights
−Removed: which may result in dilution to our shareholders (see also the risk factor above).
−Removed: If a shareholder files a statutory preemptive right
−Removed: claim, then the dilution risk to existing shareholders is equal to the number of shares necessary to satisfy that claim.
−Removed: the remedy for a common stock shareholder who owned 1% of the Company prior to the 2018 equity issuance described above who did not participate
−Removed: in the 2018 equity issuance and files a statutory preemptive rights claim would be to offer 1% of the total shares sold in the 2018 equity
−Removed: offering to the shareholder (i.e., the same percentage as their ownership in the Company at the time of the offering) at $1.00 per share,
−Removed: the amount per share of shares sold in the 2018 equity issuance.
−Removed: If the shareholder elects to purchase shares at the $1.00 price, then
−Removed: the other shareholders would be diluted by the additional shares purchased by the shareholder with the statutory preemptive rights claim.
−Removed: This same example applies to shareholders who own the common shares of the Company at the time of the Private Offering, except that the
−Removed: terms of the Private Offering would apply (i.e., a purchase price of $0.18 per share).
−Removed: Related to Our Financial Position and Need for Capital
−Removed: have incurred net losses since our inception and may never be profitable.
−Removed: likelihood of success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays frequently encountered
−Removed: in connection with development of a business enterprise in the technology sector.
−Removed: We had a net loss of $1,088,838 or $0.04 per share
−Removed: for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to a net loss of $3,068,247 or $0.08 per share for the three months ended March 31,
−Removed: For the six months ended March 31, 2021, we had a net loss of $1,888,573 or $0.07 per share, compared to a net loss of $5,176,336
−Removed: or $0.13 per share for the six months ended March 31, 2020.
−Removed: Our net losses for the year ended September 30, 2020 and for the period from
−Removed: September 30, 2017 through September 30, 2020 were $6,970,072 and $22,642,039, respectively, and our aggregate accumulated deficit as
−Removed: of September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $68,426,608 and $61,456,536, respectively.
−Removed: For the quarters ending December 31, 2020 and September
−Removed: 30, 2020, our net losses were $799,735 and $635,993, respectively.
−Removed: can be no assurance that any products under development by us will be successfully commercialized, and the extent of our future losses
−Removed: and the timing of our profitability, if ever achieved, are highly uncertain.
−Removed: If we are unable to achieve profitability, we may be unable
−Removed: to continue our operations.
−Removed: Related to Our Business and Results of Operations
−Removed: pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of an infectious disease, such as COVID-19, has materially affected, and may in the future materially
−Removed: and adversely affect, our business and operations.
−Removed: March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic.
−Removed: The COVID-19 pandemic is affecting the United
−Removed: States and global economies and may affect our operations and those of third parties on which we rely.
−Removed: While the potential economic impact
−Removed: brought by, and the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic is difficult to assess or predict, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global
−Removed: financial markets may reduce our ability to access capital, which could negatively impact our short-term and long-term liquidity.
−Removed: ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is highly uncertain and subject to change.
−Removed: We do not yet know the full extent of potential delays
−Removed: or impacts on our business, financing or the global economy as a whole.
−Removed: However, these effects could have a material impact on our liquidity,
−Removed: capital resources, operations and business and those of the third parties on which we rely.
−Removed: 2020 and into 2021, the COVID-19 pandemic has interrupted our sales and marketing activities and restricted face-to-face interaction
−Removed: between our team members and our partners.
−Removed: This slowed the pace of our development and the expansion of our deal pipeline.
−Removed: action for the current pandemic or the emergence of a new viral outbreak may negatively impact the adjustments we, our customers (if
−Removed: any), and the customers of our licensees, and our partners have made to resume business under new protocols.
