HYDROPHI TECHNOLOGIES GROUP, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)



1.  ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS


Hydrophi Technologies Group, Inc., (the “Company” or “Hydrophi”) was incorporated under the laws of State of Florida on June 18, 2010.


Reverse Acquisition


On September 25, 2013, the Company consummated an amended Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) between Hydro Phi Technologies, Inc., a Delaware Corporation (“Hydro Phi Del”), and HPT Acquisition Corp., a Delaware Corporation (“HPT”), which was a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and established solely to implement the merger.  Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, HPT merged with and into Hydro Phi Del, with Hydro Phi Del being the surviving company, in an exchange of all the equity securities of the Hydro Phi Del for common stock of the Company.  As a result of the transaction, the former shareholders of Hydro Phi Del became the controlling shareholders of the Company. The transaction was accounted for as a reverse takeover/recapitalization effected by a share exchange, wherein Hydro Phi Del is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. The capital, share price, and earnings per share amount in these consolidated financial statements for the period prior to the reverse merger were restated to reflect the recapitalization. As a result of the merger, Hydro Phi Del became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.


Unaudited pro forma results of operations for the nine months ended December 31, 2013, as though this acquisition had taken place at the beginning of the period, are as follows. The pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of what actually would have occurred had the acquisition been in effect for the entire period presented.

Hydro Phi Del was incorporated on April 21, 2008 under the laws of the State of Wyoming. In August 2010, with the relocation of its Research and Development Office from Maine to Georgia, Hydro Phi Del reincorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware and is currently a Delaware corporation.


Hydrophi has created a water-based technology to improve the fuel efficiency of internal combustion engines. Hydrophi has been engaged in the research and development of its “green energy” solutions primarily for the transportation industry since its inception.  In 2010, Hydrophi concluded phase one of its research and development and started to generate revenues. Hydrophi’s priority market segments are: logistics, trucking, heavy equipment, marine and agriculture, where rising fuel costs and emission regulations necessitate the development of new, ground-breaking technologies.  In the future, the continual improvement process at Hydrophi will focus on miniaturization, data collection, application-specific designs and further efficiency enhancements.




F-4



The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.  The Company has recently commenced its planned operations, had a net working capital deficit of $3,424,897 at December 31, 2014, and had an accumulated deficit of approximately $32.1 million as of December 31, 2014.  The Company also had negative cash flows from operations for the nine months ended December 31, 2014. Management is currently pursuing a business strategy which includes raising the necessary funds to finance the Company's research, development, marketing and manufacturing efforts.  While pursuing this business strategy, the Company is expected to continue operating at a loss with negative operating cash flows.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.


2.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Basis of Presentation


The accompanying unaudited financial statements of the Company have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended March 31, 2014. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements which substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2014 have been omitted.


The consolidated financial statements include the Company’s accounts and those of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.


Use of Estimates


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 date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Cash and Cash Equivalents


The Company considers highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.


Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts


Accounts receivable are stated at the amount the Company expects to collect. Accounts receivable represents receivables, net of allowances for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts reflects our best estimate of probable losses inherent in the accounts receivable balance. The Company determines the allowance based on its historical experience and other currently available information. When a specific account is deemed uncollectible, the account is written off against the allowance. As of December 31, 2014 and March 31, 2014, the allowance for doubtful accounts was $0. For the nine months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company did not record any bad debt expense.


Inventory


The Company utilizes a perpetual inventory system and inventory is accounted for using the first-in-first-out (FIFO) method.




F-5



Property and Equipment


Property and equipment are recorded at cost.  Expenditures for major additions and improvements are capitalized while minor replacements and maintenance and repairs, which do not improve or extend the life of such assets, are charged to operations as incurred.  Disposals are removed at cost less accumulated depreciation, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the statement of operations.  Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method which depreciates the assets over the estimated useful lives of the depreciable assets ranging from five to seven years.


Intangible Assets


Intangible assets include patent applications.  Intangible assets with definite useful lives are recorded on the basis of cost and are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives.  The Company uses a useful life of 10 years for patents.  The Company evaluates the remaining useful life of intangible assets annually to determine whether events and circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining amortization period. If the estimate of the intangible asset’s remaining useful life is changed, the remaining carrying amount of the intangible asset will be amortized prospectively over that revised remaining useful life.  At December 31, 2014 and March 31, 2014, no revision to the remaining amortization period of the intangible assets was made.


Impairment of Long-lived Assets


The Company reviews the carrying value of the long-lived assets periodically to determine if facts and circumstances exist that would suggest that assets might be impaired or that the useful lives should be modified. Among the factors the Company considers in making the evaluation are changes in market position and profitability. If facts and circumstances exist which may indicate impairment, the Company will prepare a projection of the undiscounted cash flows of the asset group and determine if the long-lived assets are recoverable based on these undiscounted cash flows. If impairment is indicated, an adjustment will be made to reduce the carrying amount of these assets to their fair value.


Derivatives


All derivatives are recorded at fair value on the balance sheet. Fair values are determined using market based pricing models incorporating readily observable market data and requiring judgment and estimates.


Fair Value of Financial Instruments


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. A fair value hierarchy has been established for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:


Level 1 Inputs – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.


Level 2 Inputs – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These might include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as interest rates, volatilities, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.) or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by market data by correlation or other means.


Level 3 Inputs – Unobservable inputs for determining the fair values of assets or liabilities that reflect an entity's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities.




F-6




Financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and borrowings. The fair value of current financial assets and current financial liabilities approximates their carrying value because of the short-term maturity of these financial instruments.


The following tables set forth assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy as of December 31, 2014 and March 31, 2014. As required by ASC 820, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of fair value assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.

Revenue Recognition


Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collectability is probable.


Research and Development


Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. For the nine month periods ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company recorded research and development expense of $115,581 and $184,894, respectively.


Income Taxes


An asset and liability approach is used for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences between income tax and financial reporting and principally relate to recognition of revenue and expenses in different periods for financial and tax accounting purposes and are measured using currently enacted tax rates and laws. In addition, a deferred tax asset can be generated by net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”). If it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recognized.


Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share


Basic earnings (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing the net income for the period by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period.  The calculation of diluted earnings (loss) per common share assumes the dilutive effect of stock options, warrants and any other potentially dilutive securities outstanding.  During a loss period, the potentially dilutive securities have an anti-dilutive effect and are not included in the calculation of dilutive net loss per common share.  For the nine months ended December 31, 2014, there were notes payable that are convertible into a potential of 469,753,747 shares of the Company’s common stock based on the then applicable conversion price and warrants/options to purchase 14,660,395 shares of the Company’s common stock, all of which have been excluded from the calculation.


Subsequent Events


The Company’s management reviewed all material events through the issuance date of this report for disclosure purposes.



F-7



Recent Accounting Pronouncements


The Company does not expect that any recently issued accounting pronouncements will have a significant impact on the results of operations, financial position, or cash flows of the Company.

7.  NOTE PAYABLE AND CONVERTIBLE NOTE PAYABLE – RELATED PARTY


On September 24, 2010, the Company issued a $2,867,500 promissory note to a related party. The principal amount due under this promissory note was loaned to the Company in a series of advances during fiscal years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009. The note accrued interest at 6% from the funding date. The note matured on the earlier of: 1) a change of control transaction as defined in the note; 2) the written consent of the Board of Directors of the Company. The Company agreed not to make any payment with respect to this note until the entire outstanding principal and accrued interest due under the 7.5% Angel Notes and 15% Angel Notes was paid in full.  On September 25, 2013, the entire principal of $2,867,500 on note payable to related party was converted into 14,993,464 shares of the Company’s common stock.  On November 12, 2014, the accrued and unpaid interest of $811,267 were exchanged for part of a convertible note.

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014, $450,251 in convertible notes was exchanged for non-convertible notes earning interest at 8% per annum with a maturity date of August 31, 2014. The notes were not secured. As of December 31, 2014, these notes were still outstanding and the note holders had agreed to extend the maturity date to August 31, 2015.  On November 12, 2014, $445,813 principal and $46,260 accrued and unpaid interest were exchanged for part of a convertible note.


During the nine months ended December 31, 2014, the Company issued a $75,716 note to a related party for unpaid accrued interest. The note bears interest at 8% and is due on August 31, 2015. On November 12, 2014, $75,716 principal and $1,392 accrued and unpaid interest were exchanged for part of a convertible note.


As discussed above, on November 12, 2014, the Company and the related parties executed loan conversion agreements. Pursuant to the agreement, the related parties exchange certain non-convertible notes and related accrued interest for convertible notes with total principal of $1,452,392. The convertible notes are convertible to the Company’s common stock at a conversion rate of $0.0065217 per share.  Of this amount $811,268 has a maturity date at the discretion of the Company’s board of directors and $641,125 has a maturity date of August 31, 2015.


The Company analyzed the loan conversion agreement executed on November 12, 2014 for derivative accounting consideration under FASB ASC 470 and determined that the embedded conversion feature, with issuance date fair values of $2,017,595 qualified for accounting treatment as a financial derivative (See Note 10). As a result, these notes were fully discounted and the fair value of the conversion feature in excess of the principal amount of the notes of $565,203 was expensed immediately as additional interest expense. The discount will be amortized by the Company through interest expense over the life of the note. As of December 31, 2014, unamortized debt discount related to the convertible notes to related parties was $539,895.


8.  CONVERTIBLE NOTE PAYABLE

The Company has the right at any time to redeem all, but not less than all, of the total outstanding amount then remaining under the convertible notes at a price equal to 135% of the remaining outstanding amount.  The Company is also required to reserve 150% of the number of shares of common stock that may be issued in conversion of the remaining outstanding amount.






F-10



Pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated December 4, 2014 by and between the Company and 31 Group, LLC, the 31 Group is committed to purchase from the Company two convertible notes of the Company in the principal amounts of $385,000 and $275,000 for the cash purchase amounts of $350,000 and $250,000, respectively.  The $385,000 note was issued on December 4, 2014 and will mature on May 17, 2016.  The $275,000 note will be issued upon the fulfillment of certain other conditions that are outside of 31 Group’s control or that the 31 Group cannot cause not to be satisfied. The notes are convertible 179 days after issuance, in whole or in part, at 31 Group ’s option, into shares of the Company’s common stock, at a conversion price equal to $0.15 per share.  If after 179 days from the execution date of the notes, the price of the Company’s common stock is less than $0.15, the Company will have an additional 30 days to repay the 31 Group LLC.  If the notes are not repaid,  31 Group LLC may convert the notes at a conversion rate of  the product of (x) the arithmetic average of the lowest three volume weighted average prices of the common stock during the ten consecutive trading days ending and including the trading day immediately preceding the applicable conversion date and (y) 80%.  The Company has the right at any time to redeem some or all, of the total outstanding amount then remaining under the convertible notes at a price equal to: (i) 100%  if  within 60 days of issuance (ii) 115% if between 61 and 149 days of issuance (iii)  120% if 150 days or more after issuance.  The Company is also required to reserve 150% of the number of shares of common stock that may be issued in conversion of the remaining outstanding amount.  As part of the note agreement the Company also agreed to give the note holder a 3% royalty payment on the net cash revenue from the sales of the Company’s HydroPlant units. The royalty is only payable when the Company has received $500,000 cash revenue and is for a period of twenty-four months starting from the date 31 Group receives an initial royalty payment.


The Company analyzed the convertible notes issued on April 28, July 29, August 5, and December 4, 2014 for derivative accounting consideration under FASB ASC 470 and determined that the embedded conversion feature, with grant date fair values of $1,056,729 qualified for accounting treatment as a financial derivative (See Note 10). The discount will be amortized by the Company through interest expense over the life of the note. The warrants, with a grant date fair value of $83,762, issued with the convertible notes were also determined to be a financial derivative (See Note 10). Together with the original issuance discount of $117,000, the Company recognized a discount of $1,223,491 as result of the embedded conversion feature and warrants issued being financial derivatives.


A summary of value changes to the convertible notes issued on April 28, July 29, August 4, and December 4, 2014 for the nine months ended December 31, 2014 is as follows:

10.  DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES


The Company has determined that the variable conversion price for its convertible notes with 31 Group, LLC causes the embedded conversion feature to be a financial derivative. The Company may not have enough authorized common shares to settle its obligation if the note holder elects to convert the note to common shares when the trading price is lower than a certain threshold.


Because the Company may not have enough authorized common shares to settle its obligation for its convertible notes and equity instruments, such as warrants and convertible notes payable-related parties, the Company concluded that the warrants issued with the 31 Group, LLC convertible notes and all of the existing warrants should be treated as financial derivatives. The Company reclassified the fair value of the tainted warrants from equity to liability on the same date it obtained the first convertible note from the 31 Group, LLC.


Changes of derivative liabilities during the nine months ended December 31, 2014 were as follows:

11.  INCOME TAXES


The Company had federal net operating loss (“NOL”) carry forwards of approximately $14 million as of December 31, 2014. The NOL is available to offset future taxable income and begins to expire in 2028. Under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, the NOL may be limited as a result of a change in control. The Company periodically assesses the likelihood that it will be able to recover its deferred tax assets. The Company considers all available evidence, both positive and negative, including historical levels of income, expectations and risks associated with estimates of future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible profits. As of December 31, 2014, the Company established a valuation allowance equal to the full amount of the net deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of the utilization of the operating losses in future periods.

As used herein the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Registrant,” and the “Company” means, Hydrophi Technologies Group, Inc., a Florida corporation, and its consolidated subsidiary and affiliates.


We were incorporated in the State of Florida on June 18, 2010 as Big Clix Corp.  On September 25, 2013, we consummated an amended Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) between Hydrophi Technologies, Inc., a Delaware Corporation (“Hydro Phi Del”), and HPT Acquisition Corp., a Delaware Corporation (“HPT”), which was a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and established solely to implement the merger.  Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, HPT merged with and into Hydro Phi Del, with Hydro Phi Del being the surviving company, in an exchange of all the equity securities of Hydro Phi Del for common stock of the Company.  After the merger, Hydro Phi Del continues to operate as before, but as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.  On October 2, 2013, the Company changed its name from Big Clix Corp. to Hydrophi Technologies Group, Inc.


Our operating subsidiary, Hydro Phi Del, was founded in 2008 to develop new clean energy technologies.  The Company makes and sells a system using water-based clean energy technologies that is engineered and functionally designed to provide fuel savings and reduced greenhouse gas emissions for the internal combustion engine.  The primary market for the Hydrophi products initially will be the transportation industry, with a primary focus on the trucking/logistics and buses and a secondary focus on heavy equipment, marine and agriculture segments, where rising fuel costs and emission regulations are driving the development of new technologies to control operating expenses. Transportation logistics are those companies providing long and short haul trucking of goods, usually employing diesel engine trucks, and often additional services such as warehousing, freight forwarding, and multimodal transporting. We believe that our proprietary HydroPlant ™ technology will have additional applications in the future, such as in off-grid power generation, where there is reliance on diesel and similar types of internal combustion engines for the generation of electricity.

The Company is marketing its products in large part through licensing agreements.  To date, it has a distribution and licensing agreement with each of Energia Vehicular Limpia S.A. de C.V. for Mexico and Brazil and with Hydrophi Technologies Europe, S.A. for Europe


Liquidity and Capital Resources


As of December 31, 2014, we had cash and cash equivalents of $166,601 and a working capital deficit of $3,424,897.  As of December 31, 2014, our accumulated deficit was $32,082,328.  For the nine months ended December 31, 2014, our net loss was $1,385,460, compared to net loss of $14,516,314 during the same period in 2013.  The decrease in net loss was mainly due to the Company incurring significant expenses in 2013 related to the conversion from a private entity into a publicly traded company. These expenses were associated with the debt conversions and stock based compensation.  $7,764,755 more in loss on debt conversion and $4,860,034 more in stock compensation were recorded for the nine month ended December 31, 2013 as compared to the same period in 2014.    In addition, the reduction of spending on research and development activities helped to reduce the 2014 net loss as compared to 2013.  These reductions were partially offset by an increase in spending on professional fees, consulting fees, and insurance products.


Cash used in operating activities was $1,513,845 for the nine months ended December 31, 2014 compared to $635,698 cash used in operating activities for the same period in 2013. The increase was mainly due to payments made for employee salaries and professional fees.  We did not use any cash in investing activities for the nine months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.  We received net cash of $1,584,000 from financing activities for the nine months ended December 31, 2014, compared to receiving net cash of $759,575 from financing activities for the same period in 2013. Cash received from financing activities for the period ended December 31, 2014 is from convertible notes issued to a third party.


Pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated April 25, 2014 by and between the Company and 31 Group, LLC (the “Purchase Agreement”), the Company sold convertible notes with a principal amount of $1,352,000, for a total purchase price of $1,270,000, to 31 Group, LLC.  The notes mature 24 months after issuance and accrue interest at an annual rate of 8.0%.  The notes are convertible at any time after issuance, in whole or in part, at the investor’s option, into shares of common stock, at a conversion price equal to the lesser of (i) the product of (x) the arithmetic average of the lowest three volume weighted average prices of the common stock during the ten consecutive trading days ending and including the trading day immediately preceding the applicable conversion date and (y) 65%, and (ii) $0.35 (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations or other similar transactions). The Company has the right at any time to redeem all, but not less than all, of the total outstanding amount then remaining under the convertible notes (the “Remaining Amount”) at a price equal to 135% of the Remaining Amount.  The Company is also required to reserve 150% of the number of shares of common stock that may be used in conversion of the Remaining Amount.


Pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated December 4, 2014 by and between the Company and 31 Group, LLC, the 31 Group is committed to purchase from the Company two convertible notes of the Company in the principal amounts of $385,000 and $275,000, for the cash purchase amounts of $350,000 and $250,000, respectively.  The $385,000 note was issued on December 4, 2014 and will mature on May 17, 2016.  The Company received the funding for the $385,000 note on December 8, 2014.  The $275,000 note will be issued upon the fulfillment of certain other conditions that are outside of the 31 Group’s control or that the 31 Group cannot cause not to be satisfied. The notes are convertible 179 days after issuance, in whole or in part, at the investor’s option, into shares of common stock, at a conversion price equal to $0.15 per share.  If after 179 days from the execution date of the note, the price of the stock is less than $0.15, the Company will have an additional 30 days to repay the 31 Group LLC.  If the notes are not repaid,  31 Group LLC may convert the notes at a conversion rate of  the product of (x) the arithmetic average of the lowest three volume weighted average prices of the common stock during the ten consecutive trading days ending and including the trading day immediately preceding the applicable conversion date and (y) 80%.  The Company has the right at any time to redeem some or all, of the total outstanding amount then remaining under the convertible notes at a price equal to: (i) 100%  if  within 60 days of issuance (ii) 115% if between 61 and 149 days of issuance (iii)  120% if 150 days or more after issuance.  The Company is also required to reserve 150% of the number of shares of common stock that may be issued in conversion of the remaining outstanding amount commencing with the date that the note becomes convertible.

In the opinion of our management, funds currently available will not satisfy our working capital requirements for the next twelve months.  The Company will need a substantial amount of capital to fund its operations and SEC reporting obligations.  It has no contracts or arrangements for any such funding. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise any funding.  If we are not able to obtain the additional financing on a timely basis, we will be unable to conduct our operations as planned, and we will not be able to meet our other obligations as they become due. In such event, we will be forced to scale down or perhaps even cease our operations.  As a result of the fact that the Company financial resources are inadequate for it business operations at this time, there is a substantial doubt as to its ability to continue as a going concern.


Results of Operations for the three months ended December 31, 2014 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2013.


Revenues


Revenues were $69,167 for the three months ended December 31, 2014 compared to $104,784 for the three months ended December 31, 2013. The decrease in revenue for the period ending December 2014 is due to the Company not booking orders for its HydroPlant units for the period ending December 31, 2014 as compared to the same period 2013. Unit sales in the 2013 period were largely for testing purposes by potential customers and scientific organizations to establish unit efficacy.


General and Administrative Expenses


General and administrative expenses increased by $130,315 to $616,855 for the three months ended December 31, 2014 compared to $486,540 for the three months ended December 31, 2013.  The increase was mainly due to the Company incurring additional legal, professional, and insurance expenses associated with operating a public company as compared to minimal exposure during the three-month period ending December 31, 2013.  


Other income (expenses)


Other income (expenses) changed by $26,662 to income of $1,653 for the three months ended December 31, 2014 compared to expenses of $25,009 for the three months ended December 31, 2013.  The net change in fair value of derivatives was the primary reason increase in other income for the three-month period ending December 31, 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013. The impact of the change in fair value of derivative was partially offset by the increase of interest expense from $25,009 for the 3 months ended December 31, 2013 to $1,599,131 for the 3 months ended December 31, 2014.  Interest expense increased because of the amortization of debt discount related to the conversion feature of the convertible notes payable.

Net loss increased by $97,250 to $576,882 for the three months ended December 31, 2014 compared to $479,632 for the three months ended December 31, 2013. The increase was mainly due to all of the factors cited above, namely the increased spending on legal, professional, and insurance.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures


Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified in the SEC's rules and forms.  Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer. We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and functioning Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2014 (the “Evaluation Date”). Based upon the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the Evaluation Date, the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of the identification of a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting which is identified below, which we view as an integral part of our disclosure controls and procedures.


Management’s assessment identified several material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. These material weaknesses include overall lack of review and reconciliation in many areas of the accounting functions, lack of segregation of duties and lack of an audit committee to oversee the financial reporting and disclosure process.


To address these weaknesses, management has hired a full time controller. Due to the Company’s small number of employees the lack of segregation of duties and lack of an audit committee continues to exist.


Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting


There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.


Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls


Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud.  A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.  Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.  Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.
