Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
ITEM
9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
We
maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that
we file under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within
the time periods specified in the Security and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated
and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer),
as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and
procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable
assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit
relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Under
the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated
the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange
Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial
Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of April 30, 2022.
Changes
in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There
has not been any change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during
the year ended April 30, 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.
Management’s
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over
financial reporting is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our Chief
Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel to provide
reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and includes those policies and procedures that:
●
pertain
to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
and
●
provide
reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance
with authorizations of our management and directors; and
●
provide
reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that
could have a material impact on the financial statements.
52
Because
of inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any
evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risks that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions,
or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Our evaluation of internal control over financial reporting
includes using the criteria in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013), an integrated framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission, for the evaluation of internal control to identify the risks and control objectives related
to the evaluation of our control environment.
Based
on our evaluation under the framework described above, our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting
was not effective as of April 30, 2022 due to the following material weaknesses that were identified:
●
The
Company lacks adequate segregation of duties due to the small size of the organization. Further, the Company lacks an independent
Board of Directors or Audit Committee to ensure adequate monitoring or oversight.
●
The
Company lacks accounting resources and controls to prevent or detect material misstatements. Specifically, the Company continues
to have a material weakness in our controls over accounting for inventory due to a lack of controls over ensuring inventory movement
was being processed accurately and in a timely manner, which resulted in significant audit adjustments relating to the value of our
inventory and cost of sales. Further, while the Company engages service providers to assist with US GAAP compliance the Company lacks
resources with adequate knowledge to oversee those services. Lastly, the Company does not have sufficient resources to complete timely
reconciliations and transactional reviews, which resulted in delays in the financial reporting process.
To
remediate the material weaknesses, we have initiated compensating controls in the near term and are enhancing and revising our existing
controls, including ensuring we have sufficient management review procedures and adequate segregation of duties. The material weaknesses
will not be considered remediated until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded
they are operating effectively.
This
Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control
over financial reporting. Our management’s report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting
firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Annual
Report.

TERM
OF OFFICE
All
directors hold office until the next annual meeting of the shareholders of the Company and until their successors have been duly elected
and qualified. The Company’s Bylaws provide that the Board of Directors will consist of no less than three members. Officers are
elected by and serve at the discretion of the Board of Directors.
DIRECTOR
INDEPENDENCE
Our
board of directors is currently composed of one member, who does not qualify as an independent director in accordance with the published
listing requirements of the NASDAQ Global Market. The NASDAQ independence definition includes a series of objective tests, such as that
the director is not, and has not been for at least three years, one of our employees and that neither the director, nor any of his family
members has engaged in various types of business dealings with us. In addition, our board of directors has not made a subjective determination
as to each director that no relationships exist which, in the opinion of our board of directors, would interfere with the exercise of
independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director, though such subjective determination is required by the NASDAQ
rules. Had our board of directors made these determinations, our board of directors would have reviewed and discussed information provided
by the directors and us with regard to each director’s business and personal activities and relationships as they may relate to
us and our management.
CERTAIN
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
No
director, nominee for director, or executive officer of the Company has appeared as a party in any legal proceeding material to an evaluation
of his ability or integrity during the past ten years.
SIGNIFICANT
EMPLOYEES
Other
than our officers and director, we currently have two other persons who became in February 2022 what we consider to be significant employees:
●
Jalaluddin Shaik, President of Gameface.
Jalaluddin
Shaik founded and became the chief executive officer of Gameface in 2017. Prior to founding Gameface, Mr. Shaik led product teams at
some of the world’s biggest brands, including Telstra, Sony, and Apple. While at Telstra, Shaik led the creation of the Telstra
video streaming platform ‘Presto’, that reaches over 10M Australians. In addition to his role at Telstra, Shaik was the design
lead on the Apple airplay technology integration to 80% of Tier1 Audio OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers) such as Denon, Bose, Pioneer,
Yamaha, leading a team of 30 engineers. Previously (2003-2010), Shaik built and deployed various end to end video decoding solutions
at Sony and Intel. Mr. Shaik is a graduate of Visvesvaraya Technological University with a bachelors in Computer Science Major in machine
learning.
56
AUDIT
COMMITTEE AND CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
Since
we do not have an audit or compensation committee comprised of independent directors, the functions that would have been performed by
such committees are performed by our directors. The Board of Directors has not established an audit committee and does not have an audit
committee financial expert, nor has the Board of Directors established a nominating committee. The Board is of the opinion that such
committees are not necessary since the Company is an early development stage company and has only one director, and to date, such director
has been performing the functions of such committees. Thus, there is a potential conflict of interest in that our directors and officers
have the authority to determine issues concerning management compensation, nominations, and audit issues that may affect management decisions.
There
are no family relationships among our directors or officers, or persons nominated or chosen to be a director or officer. Other than as
described above, we are not aware of any other conflicts of interest with any of our executive officers or directors, other than potential
issues related to the matters described under “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.”
SECTION
16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE
Our
Common Stock was not registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act. Accordingly, our officers, directors and principal shareholders
are not subject to the beneficial ownership reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act.
DIRECTOR
COMPENSATION
Each
non-employee director will receive shares of common stock valued at $50,000, based on the closing price of our common stock on the anniversary
date each non-employee director was appointed to the Board. In the event, a director should resign from the Board mid-year, such director
would receive a pro rata issuance of common stock at their anniversary date based on the number of days of service since their prior
anniversary date. No fractional shares will be issued to non-employee director, and any calculation resulting in a fractional share will
be rounded up to the next whole share.
DIRECTOR
INDEPENDENCE
Upon
effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, our Board will be composed of a majority of “independent
directors” as defined under the rules of Nasdaq. We use the definition of “independence” applied by Nasdaq to make
this determination. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(a)(2) provides that an “independent director” is a person other than an officer
or employee of the company or any other individual having a relationship which, in the opinion of the Company’s Board, would interfere
with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. The Nasdaq listing rules provide that a
director cannot be considered independent if:
●
the
director is, or at any time during the past three (3) years was, an employee of the Company;
57
●
the
director or a family member of the director accepted any compensation from the company in excess of $120,000 during any period of
twelve (12) consecutive months within the three (3) years preceding the independence determination (subject to certain exemptions,
including, among other things, compensation for Board or Board committee service);
●
the
director or a family member of the director is a partner in, controlling stockholder of, or an executive officer of an entity to
which the company made, or from which the company received, payments in the current or any of the past three fiscal years that exceed
5% of the recipient’s consolidated gross revenue for that year or $200,000, whichever is greater (subject to certain exemptions);
●
the
director or a family member of the director is employed as an executive officer of an entity where, at any time during the past three
(3) years, any of the executive officers of the company served on the compensation committee of such other entity; or
●
the
director or a family member of the director is a current partner of the company’s outside auditor, or at any time during the
past three (3) years was a partner or employee of the company’s outside auditor, and who worked on the company’s audit.
Under
such definitions, our Board has undertaken a review of the independence of each director nominee. Based on information provided by each
director concerning his or her background, employment and affiliations, our Board has determined that each of Kirk P. Taylor, Rohit Krishnan,
and Gabriel Goldman, when appointed to the Board, will be independent directors of the Company.
BOARD
COMMITTEES
Upon
effectiveness of the June registration statement, the following three standing committees will be formed and effective: audit committee;
compensation committee; and nominating and governance committee. Our Board of Directors has adopted written charters for each of these
committees, with such charters being effective upon effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.
Upon completion of this offering, copies of the charters will be available on our website. Our Board of Directors may establish other
committees as it deems necessary or appropriate from time to time.
Audit
Committee
The
audit committee will be responsible for, among other matters:
●
appointing,
compensating, retaining, evaluating, terminating, and overseeing our independent registered public accounting firm;
●
discussing
with our independent registered public accounting firm the independence of its members from its management;
●
reviewing
with our independent registered public accounting firm the scope and results of their audit;
●
approving
all audit and permissible non-audit services to be performed by our independent registered public accounting firm;
●
overseeing
the financial reporting process and discussing with management and our independent registered public accounting firm the interim
and annual financial statements that we file with the SEC;
●
reviewing
and monitoring our accounting principles, accounting policies, financial and accounting controls, and compliance with legal and regulatory
requirements;
●
coordinating
the oversight by our Board of our code of business conduct and our disclosure controls and procedures
58
●
establishing
procedures for the confidential and/or anonymous submission of concerns regarding accounting, internal controls or auditing matters;
and
●
reviewing
and approving related-person transactions.
Kirk
P. Taylor, who satisfies the “independence” requirements of Rule 10A-3 under
the Exchange Act and Nasdaq’s rules, will serve on our audit committee upon their appointment to the board, with Mr. Taylor serving
as the chairman. Our board has determined that Mr. Taylor qualify as “audit committee financial experts.”
Compensation
Committee
The
compensation committee will be responsible for, among other matters:
●
reviewing
key employee compensation goals, policies, plans and programs;
●
reviewing
and approving the compensation of our directors and executive officers;
●
reviewing
and approving employment agreements and other similar arrangements between us and our executive officers; and
●
appointing
and overseeing any compensation consultants or advisors.
There are currently
no independent directors on the compensation committee.
Nominating
and Corporate Governance Committee
The
purpose of the nominating and corporate governance committee is to assist the Board in identifying qualified individuals to become Board
members, in determining the composition of the Board and in monitoring the process to assess Board effectiveness.
Kirk
Taylor, who satisfies the “independence” requirements of Nasdaq’s rules, will serve on
our compensation committee upon their appointment to the board, with Mr. Goldman serving as the chairman.
COMPENSATION
COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION
None
of our officers currently serves, or in the past year has served, as a member of the compensation committee of any entity that has one
or more officers serving on our board of directors.
RISK
OVERSIGHT
Our
Board will oversee a company-wide approach to risk management. Our Board will determine the appropriate risk level for us generally,
assess the specific risks faced by us and review the steps taken by management to manage those risks. While our Board will have ultimate
oversight responsibility for the risk management process, its committees will oversee risk in certain specified areas.
Specifically,
our compensation committee will be responsible for overseeing the management of risks relating to our executive compensation plans and
arrangements, and the incentives created by the compensation awards it administers. Our audit committee will oversee management of enterprise
risks and financial risks, as well as potential conflicts of interests. Our Board of Directors will be responsible for overseeing the
management of risks associated with the independence of our Board.
59
CODE
OF BUSINESS CONDUCT AND ETHICS
As
of April 30, 2022, the Company has not adopted a code of ethics that applies to its principal executive officers, principal financial
officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions as the Company has only recently commenced
operations. Our Board adopted a code of business conduct and ethics that applies to our directors, officers and employees (the “Code
of Business Conduct and Ethics”), to be effective upon effectiveness of the June registration statement. Upon completion of the
offering, a copy of the code will be available on the Company’s website. The Company intends to disclose on their website any amendments
to the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and any waivers of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that apply to their principal executive
officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer, controller, or persons performing similar functions.

12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
SECURITY
OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
The
following table sets forth certain information, as of May 17, 2023, with respect to any person (including any “group”,
as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) who is
known to us to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent (5%) of any class of our voting securities, and as to those shares of
our equity securities beneficially owned by each of our directors and executive officers and all of our directors and executive officers
as a group. Unless otherwise specified in the table below, such information, other than information with respect to our directors and
executive officers, is based on a review of statements filed with the Securities and Exchange commission (the “Commission”)
pursuant to Sections 13 (d), 13 (f), and 13 (g) of the Exchange Act with respect to our common stock.
The
number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by each person is determined under the rules of the Commission and the information
is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under such rules, beneficial ownership includes any shares
as to which such person has sole or shared voting power or investment power and also any shares which the individual has the right to
acquire within sixty (60) days after the date hereof, through the exercise of any stock option, warrant or other right. Unless otherwise
indicated, each person has sole investment and voting power (or shares such power with his or her spouse) with respect to the shares
set forth in the following table. The inclusion herein of any shares deemed beneficially owned does not constitute an admission of beneficial
ownership of those shares.
The
following table lists, as at the date hereof, the number of shares of common stock of our Company that are beneficially owned by (i)
each person or entity known to our Company to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding common stock; (ii) each officer
and director of our Company; and (iii) all officers and directors as a group. Information relating to beneficial ownership of common
stock by our principal shareholders and management is based upon information furnished by each person using “beneficial ownership”
concepts under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Under these rules, a person is deemed to be a beneficial owner of
a security if that person has or shares voting power, which includes the power to vote or direct the voting of the security, or investment
power, which includes the power to vote or direct the voting of the security. The person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any
security of which that person has a right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days. Under the Securities and Exchange Commission
rules, more than one person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same securities, and a person may be deemed to be a beneficial
owner of securities as to which he or she may not have any pecuniary beneficial interest. Except as noted below, each person has sole
voting and investment power.

Beneficial
Ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and generally includes voting or
investment power with respect to securities. Shares of common stock subject to options, warrants, convertible debt or convertible
preferred shares currently exercisable or convertible, or exercisable or convertible within 60 days are deemed outstanding for
computing the percentage of the person holding such option or warrant but are not deemed outstanding for computing the percentage of
any other person. Percentages are based on a total of shares of common stock outstanding on May 17, 2023, which
was 13,543,155, and the shares issuable upon exercise of warrants and convertible debt. The number of common shares used
in computing this percentage is 81,906,241.

share for non-U.S. employees and $39.40 for U.S. employees. All of the warrants have a contractual life of 10 years from the date of issuance

Securities
authorized for issuance under equity compensation plans.
The
table below provides information regarding all compensation plans as of the end of the most recently completed fiscal year (including
individual compensation arrangements) under which equity securities of the registrant are authorized for issuance.
On
November 11, 2020, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the Slinger Bag Inc. Global Share Incentive Plan (2020), or the 2020
Plan, which was approved by stockholders holding in the aggregate 19,994,700 shares of the Company’s common stock, or approximately
75.4% of the Company’s common stock outstanding on such date. The 2020 Plan provides for the grant of awards which are incentive
stock options (“ISOs”), non-qualified stock options (“NQSOs”), unrestricted stock, restricted stock, restricted
stock units, performance stock and other equity-based and cash awards or any combination of the foregoing, to eligible key management
employees, non-employee directors, and non-employee consultants of the Company or any of its subsidiaries (each a “participant”)
(however, solely employees of the Company and its subsidiaries are eligible for incentive stock option awards).
The
Company has reserved a total of 15,000,000 shares for issuance under awards to be made under the 2020 Plan, all of which may, but need
not, be issued in connection with ISOs. To the extent that an award lapses, expires, is canceled, is terminated unexercised or ceases
to be exercisable for any reason, or the rights of its holder terminate, any shares subject to such award shall again be available for
the grant of a new award. The 2020 Plan shall continue in effect, unless sooner terminated, until the tenth (10th) anniversary of the
date on which it was adopted by the Board of Directors (except as to awards outstanding on that date). The Board of Directors in its
discretion may terminate the 2020 Plan at any time with respect to any shares for which awards have not theretofore been granted; provided,
however, that the 2020 Plan’s termination shall not materially and adversely impair the rights of a holder, without the consent
of the holder, with respect to any award previously granted.
Future
new hires, non-employee directors and additional non-employee consultants are eligible to participate in the 2020 Plan as well. The number
of awards to be granted to officers, non-employee directors, employees and non-employee consultants cannot be determined at this time
as the grant of awards is dependent upon various factors such as hiring requirements and job performance.
