The Pocket Games Products
Idol Hands – The First Release from Pocket Games, Inc.
The History of this Title
This game was developed by Chromativity in 2012 as a joint partnership with Intel and Relative Technologies as part of an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer). It was originally part of a twelve month exclusive release license to bundle the game with a gesture control camera. Development continued and with the game being released August 2013, the exclusivity period ran out in September 2014. Pocket Games acquired Idol Hands in May 2014 and launched a PC version in February, 2015, with releases on other platforms to follow.
Related Party Game Development
On October 22, 2013 we entered into an agreement with DNA Interactive Games Limited, a company formed under the laws of the United Kingdom (“DNAIG”), which is controlled by our Chief Executive Officer, David Lovatt, to develop a game known as SH3G for iPad and the Android tablet platforms. DNAIG paid us an aggregate of $56,050 as we completed the development of SH3G.

Market
The video games industry continues to show very strong year on year growth. Worldwide, the gaming industry is due to be worth $103 billion in 2017 with 8.9% year on year growth1. Next generation consoles purchased by consumers is greater than previous projections, bucking the projected trend, with PlayStation4 sales at 7 million by April 2014. This was just five months after launch. Both the PlayStation3 &the Xbox360 took 14 months to reach 7.7 million.2
Digital sales on console are increasing year on year. These are sales where no physical media is provided and the game is downloaded directly to the unit from the manufacturer’s in-platform store. Revenue splits for console software in 2017 are project to be 61% from physical sales of media, 36% of digital downloading of a title and with 3% of revenue coming from advertising in and around the game.3
Overall, taking both PC and Console platforms, US gaming revenue from physical product dropped to just above 30% in 2013 and is predicted to be less than 20% by end of 2015.4 Contrary to previous predictions, PC games are now outselling console games in a market that is to be worth $25 billion by end of 20144
The number of gamers worldwide continues to rise at an unprecedented and impressive rate. The 1.6 billion gamers from 2013 is due to rise to more than 2 billion by 2016. 4 The Asian-Pacific region continues to be an important market and maintains its exponential growth pattern 82% of the last year’s $6 billion growth came from Asia Pacific and China will be the biggest gaming market ahead of the US by 2015. 4

Competition
The mobile game market is highly competitive and rapidly changing. Our ability to compete depends upon many factors within and outside our control, including the timely development and introduction of our mobile game and its enhancements, its functionality, performance, reliability, customer service and support and marketing efforts. Due to the relatively low barriers to entry in the mobile game market, we expect additional competition from other emerging companies. Many of the Company’s existing and potential competitors are substantially larger than us and have significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources. As a result, they may be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements, or to devote greater resources to the development and promotion of their mobile games. There can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully against current or future competitors or that competitive pressure will not have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.
Employees
We have eleven (11) employees who are also our officers and sole director. Our chief executive officer, president and sole director, David Lovatt oversees our day to day operations and product development.
None of our employees are employed under a collective bargaining agreement. We believe we have an excellent relationship with our employees and independent contractors.
We intend to hire additional employees and independent contractors on an as needed basis.
The loss of our CEO David Lovatt would likely have a material adverse effect on the Company. We intend to reduce this risk by obtaining key-man insurance after the Offering, in the event that affordable insurance coverage may be obtained. We cannot assure you that the Company will be able to obtain such insurance or that the Company will be successful in recruiting needed personnel.

Dividends and Distributions
We have not paid any cash dividends on our common stock since inception and do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. We expect that that any future earnings will be retained for use in developing and/or expanding our business.
Sales of Unregistered Securities
On March 17, 2014, we entered into an agreement with Fluid Games, Ltd to acquire certain intellectual property for the game known as Idol Hands. In exchange for the game, we issued 1,500,000 shares of common stock valued at $0.05 per share. We also paid $40,000 as additional consideration.
On October 29, 2014, we issued 155,400 shares of our common stock valued at $0.05 per share for legal services.
With respect to the transactions noted above. Each of the recipients of securities of the Company was an accredited investor, or is considered by the Company to be a “sophisticated person”, inasmuch as each of them has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that they are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of receiving securities of the Company. No solicitation was made and no underwriting discounts were given or paid in connection with these transactions. The Company believes that the issuance of its securities as described above was exempt from registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933.

Penny Stock Rules
The SEC has also adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks” as such term is defined by Rule 15g-9. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system).
Our shares constitute penny stocks under the Exchange Act. The shares may remain penny stocks for the foreseeable future. The classification of our shares as penny stocks makes it more difficult for a broker-dealer to sell the stock into a secondary market, which makes it more difficult for a purchaser to liquidate his or her investment. Any broker-dealer engaged by the purchaser for the purpose of selling his or her shares in PKGM will be subject to the penny stock rules.
The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, deliver a standardized risk disclosure document approved by the SEC, which: (i) contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; (ii) contains a description of the broker’s or dealer’s duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation to such duties or other requirements of the Securities Act; (iii) contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; (iv) contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; (v) defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and (vi) contains such other information and is in such form as the SEC shall require by rule or regulation. The broker-dealer also must provide to the customer, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, (i) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (ii) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (iii) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and (iv) monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account.
In addition, the penny stock rules require that, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements will have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our stock because it will be subject to these penny stock rules. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling those securities.

Overview
We were incorporated in the State of Florida on October 4, 2013, to engage in the development and distribution of mobile games. Our independent registered public accounting firm has issued a going concern opinion. This means there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business unless we obtain additional capital to pay our ongoing operational costs. Accordingly, we must locate sources of capital to pay our operational costs. Since the Company’s inception we have generated only minimal revenues from business operations from a related party. Expenses which comprise the costs of goods sold include licensing agreements, and royalties, as well as operational and staffing costs related to the development, management, and support of the Company’s mobile applications. General and administrative expenses have been comprised of administrative wages and benefits; occupancy and office expenses; outside legal, accounting and other professional fees; travel and other miscellaneous office and administrative expenses. Selling and marketing expenses include selling/marketing wages and benefits, advertising and promotional expenses, as well as travel and other miscellaneous related expenses.
Because we have incurred losses, income tax expenses are immaterial. No tax benefits have been booked related to operating loss carryforwards, given our uncertainty of being able to utilize such loss carryforwards in future years. We anticipate incurring additional losses during the coming year.
Revenues:
Revenue recognized were $24,374 and $40,540 for the year ended October 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. A total of $6,608 and $40,540 were from related party for the year ended October 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Cost of Revenues:
Cost of revenues was $32,824 and $165,118 for the years ended October 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Cost of revenues during 2014 consisted of software and game cost of revenues and included $75,000 of stock based compensation for the purchase of Intellectual Property on May 14, 2014.
General and Administrative:
General and administrative expense was $136,065 and $25,203, for the years ended October 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, an increase of $110,862, or 440%.General and administrative expenses consisted of bank fees, SEC filing costs and costs associated with the pursuit of getting our stock traded on the OTCBB.
Officer Compensation:
Officer compensation expense was $281,533 and $2,740,000 for the years ended October 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, a decrease of $2,458,467, or 90%.Officer compensation expense consisted of a monthly fee of $10,000 to each of our two officers. A total of $50,000 of officer compensation was paid with the issuance of 1,000,000 shares of common stock in lieu of cash during the year ended October 31, 2014. Another 1,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock valued at $2,500,000 were issued as a bonus to the CEO on April 25, 2014.
Professional Fees:
Professional fees expense was $584,230 and $217,572 for the years ended October 31, 2015 and 2015, respectively, an increase of $366,658, or 169%. Professional fees consisted of legal, consulting, accounting and auditing costs necessary to prepare our public filings. A total of $71,878 of compensation for consulting and legal services was paid with the issuance of common stock in lieu of cash during the year ended October 31, 2014, consisting of 1,220,000 shares and subscriptions payable for 155,400 shares.

Net operating loss consisted primarily of fees incurred in connection with the pursuit of listing of our Common Stock on the OTCBB and with establishing an account with our transfer agent, as well as legal and audit fees related to our SEC filing costs, along with the development of our software products during the year ended October 31, 2014. A total of $2,696,878 of our net operating loss for the year ended October, 2014 was attributable to common and preferred stock payments in lieu of cash.

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. To date, we have funded our operations through the sale of our common stock. Our primary uses of cash have been for the development of games, compensation, and professional fees. All funds received have been expended in the furtherance of growing the business and establishing brand portfolios. The following trends are reasonably likely to result in a material decrease in our liquidity over the near to long term:

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
Critical Accounting Policies
We believe the following more critical accounting policies are used in the preparation of our financial statements:
JOBS Act
The Company is an “emerging growth company” as defined in the recently-enacted JOBS Act, and is eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting and disclosure requirements that are applicable to public companies that are not “emerging growth companies.” As an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act, the Company is permitted to, and intends to, rely on exemptions from certain reporting and disclosure requirements, which may make our future public filings different than that of other public companies.
Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain new accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. The Company has elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards under Section 102(b)(2) of the JOBS Act, that allows the Company to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those standards apply to private companies. As a result of this election, the Company’s financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.
The Company will remain an “emerging growth company” until the earliest of: (i) the last day of the fiscal year during which we had total annual gross revenues of $1 billion or more, (ii) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of our common stock pursuant to an effective registration statement, (iii) the date on which the Company has, during the previous 3-year period, issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt or (iv) the date on which the Company is deemed a “large accelerated filer” as defined under the federal securities laws.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the 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. Significant estimates in the financial statements include the valuation of stock based compensation and deferred tax assets.
Segment Reporting
Under FASB ASC 280-10-50, the Company operates as a single segment and will evaluate additional segment disclosure requirements as it expands its operations.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Under FASB ASC 820-10-05, the Financial Accounting Standards Board establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement reaffirms that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements as reflected herein. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts payable and accrued interest reported on the balance sheet are estimated by management to approximate fair value primarily due to the short term nature of the instruments. The Company also had debt instruments that required fair value measurement on a recurring basis.
12 |
Foreign Currency Transactions
The Company translates foreign currency transactions to the Company's functional currency (United States Dollar), at the exchange rate effective on the invoice date. If the exchange rate changes between the time of purchase and the time actual payment is made, a foreign exchange transaction gain or loss results which is included in determining net income for the period.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts receivable may result from our product sales or outsourced application development services. Management must make estimates of the uncollectability of accounts receivables. Management specifically analyzed customer concentrations, customer credit-worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment terms when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts.
Beneficial Conversion Features
From time to time, the Company may issue convertible notes that may contain an imbedded beneficial conversion feature. A beneficial conversion feature exists on the date a convertible note is issued when the fair value of the underlying common stock to which the note is convertible into is in excess of the remaining unallocated proceeds of the note after first considering the allocation of a portion of the note proceeds to the fair value of warrants, if related warrants have been granted. The intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature is recorded as a debt discount with a corresponding amount to additional paid in capital. The debt discount is amortized to interest expense over the life of the note using the effective interest method.
Revenue Recognition
The Company generates revenue from three sources; sale of game applications, sale of advertising provided with games, and outsourced application development services. The Company recognizes revenue using four basic criteria that must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured, which is typically after receipt of payment and delivery, net of any credit card charge-backs and refunds. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management’s judgment regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company defers any revenue for which the product has not been delivered or is subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or no refund will be required. Revenues on advertising are deferred and recognized ratably over the advertising period.
Revenue for the year ended October 31, 2014, includes only outsourced application development services recognized in accordance with ASC 605-28 "Milestone Method". The application development revenue, totaling $45,540, as amended (see Note 4), has been earned upon attainment of stipulated milestones through October 31, 2014 pursuant to a contract with an entity related to an officer of the Company. The officer is an owner and a director on the customer's Board. The Company may bill for these services prior to attainment of the performance milestones. Revenues recognized under this arrangement for the year ended October 31, 2014 were $40,540, all of which were from a related party.
Concentration of Revenue
All the revenue included in the accompanying financial statements is from one line of business, outsourced application development services, from a single related party customer, based in the United Kingdom.
Development Costs
Expenditures for product development costs are expensed as incurred. The Company has expensed development costs of $-0- and $165,118 during the years ended October 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, which has been presented as a cost of revenues in the Company’s statements of operations.
13 |
Income Taxes
The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities based on differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to be recovered. The Company provides a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets for which it does not consider realization of such assets to be more likely than not.
The Company follows the provisions of FASB ASC 740-10 “Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (ASC 740-10). Certain recognition thresholds must be met before a tax position is recognized in the financial statements. An entity may only recognize or continue to recognize tax positions that meet a "more-likely-than-not" threshold. As of October 31, 2015, the Company does not believe it has any uncertain tax positions that would require either recognition or disclosure in the accompanying financial statements.
Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share
The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss adjusted on an “as if converted” basis, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potential dilutive securities. For the periods presented, there were no outstanding potential common stock equivalents and therefore basic and diluted earnings per share result in the same figure.
Stock-Based Compensation
Under FASB ASC 718-10-30-2, all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. The Company issued $537,973 and $2,696,878 of stock based compensation for services for the years ended October 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Derivative Liability
The Company evaluates its convertible instruments, options, warrants or other contracts to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for under ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging.” The result of this accounting treatment is that the fair value of the derivative is marked-to-market each balance sheet date and recorded as a liability. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, the change in fair value is recorded in the statement of operations as other income (expense). Upon conversion or exercise of a derivative instrument, the instrument is marked to fair value at the conversion date and then that fair value is reclassified to equity. Equity instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification under ASC Topic 815 are reclassified to liabilities at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date. We analyzed the derivative financial instruments (the Convertible Note and tainted Warrant), in accordance with ASC 815. The objective is to provide guidance for determining whether an equity-linked financial instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. This determination is needed for a scope exception which would enable a derivative instrument to be accounted for under the accrual method. The classification of a non-derivative instrument that falls within the scope of ASC 815-40-05 “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock” also hinges on whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. A non-derivative instrument that is not indexed to an entity’s own stock cannot be classified as equity and must be accounted for as a liability. There is a two-step approach in determining whether an instrument or embedded feature is indexed to an entity’s own stock. First, the instrument's contingent exercise provisions, if any, must be evaluated, followed by an evaluation of the instrument's settlement provisions. The Company utilized multinomial lattice models that value the derivative liability within the notes based on a probability weighted discounted cash flow model. The Company utilized the fair value standard set forth by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, defined as the amount at which the assets (or liability) could be bought (or incurred) or sold (or settled) in a current transaction between willing parties, that is, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors of
Pocket Games, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Pocket Games, Inc. (the “Company”) as of October 31, 2015 and 2014 and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the year ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company was not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Pocket Games, Inc. as of October 31, 2015 and 2014 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the periods described above in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has accumulated a deficit of $5,618,984 and negative working capital of $1,799,814,which raises doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The Company has adopted a fiscal year end of October 31.
JOBS Act
The Company is an “emerging growth company” as defined in the recently-enacted JOBS Act, and is eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting and disclosure requirements that are applicable to public companies that are not “emerging growth companies.” As an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act, the Company is permitted to, and intends to, rely on exemptions from certain reporting and disclosure requirements, which may make our future public filings different than that of other public companies.
Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain new accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. The Company has elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards under Section 102(b)(2) of the JOBS Act, that allows the Company to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those standards apply to private companies. As a result of this election, the Company’s financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.
The Company will remain an “emerging growth company” until the earliest of: (i) the last day of the fiscal year during which we had total annual gross revenues of $1 billion or more, (ii) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of our common stock pursuant to an effective registration statement, (iii) the date on which the Company has, during the previous 3-year period, issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt or (iv) the date on which the Company is deemed a “large accelerated filer” as defined under the federal securities laws.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the 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.

Software Development Costs
Costs incurred in connection with the development of software products are accounted for in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 985 “Costs of Software to Be Sold, Leased or Marketed.” Costs incurred prior to the establishment of technological feasibility are charged to research and development expense. Software development costs are capitalized after a product is determined to be technologically feasible and is in the process of being developed for market but may be expensed if the Company is in the development stage. Amortization of capitalized software development costs begins upon initial product shipment. Capitalized software development costs are amortized over the estimated life of the related product (generally thirty-six months), using the straight-line method. The Company evaluates its software assets for impairment whenever events or change in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of software assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to the future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such software assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the software asset. During the years ended October 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company did not capitalize any software development costs.
Advertising and Promotion
All costs associated with advertising and promoting products are expensed as incurred.
Research and Development
Expenditures for research and product development costs are expensed as incurred. The Company has expensed development costs of $-0- during the years ended October 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Income Taxes
The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities based on differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to be recovered. The Company provides a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets for which it does not consider realization of such assets to be more likely than not.
Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share
The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss adjusted on an “as if converted” basis, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potential dilutive securities. For the periods presented, there were no outstanding potential common stock equivalents and therefore basic and diluted earnings per share result in the same figure.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company adopted FASB guidance on stock based compensation. Under FASB ASC 718-10-30-2, all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. The Company recognized $537,973 and $2,696,878 for services and compensation for the years ended October 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

(expense). Upon conversion or exercise of a derivative instrument, the instrument is marked to fair value at the conversion date and then that fair value is reclassified to equity. Equity instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification under ASC Topic 815 are reclassified to liabilities at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-12, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period. The new guidance requires that share-based compensation that require a specific performance target to be achieved in order for employees to become eligible to vest in the awards and that could be achieved after an employee completes the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant-date fair value of the award. Compensation costs should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the period(s) for which the requisite service has already been rendered. If the performance target becomes probable of being achieved before the end of the requisite service period, the remaining unrecognized compensation cost should be recognized prospectively over the remaining requisite service period. The total amount of compensation cost recognized during and after the requisite service period should reflect the number of awards that are expected to vest and should be adjusted to reflect those awards that ultimately vest. The requisite service period ends when the employee can cease rendering service and still be eligible to vest in the award if the performance target is achieved. This new guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. Entities may apply the amendments in this Update either (a) prospectively to all awards granted or modified after the effective date or (b) retrospectively to all awards with performance targets that are outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements and to all new or modified awards thereafter. The adoption of ASU 2014-12 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-10: Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, Consolidation, to improve financial reporting by reducing the cost and complexity associated with the incremental reporting requirements of development stage entities. The amendments in this update remove all incremental financial reporting requirements from U.S. GAAP for development stage entities, thereby improving financial reporting by eliminating the cost and complexity associated with providing that information. The amendments in this Update also eliminate an exception provided to development stage entities in Topic
25 |
POCKET GAMES, INC.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
October 31, 2015 and 2014
810, Consolidation, for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity on the basis of the amount of investment equity that is at risk. The amendments to eliminate that exception simplify U.S. GAAP by reducing avoidable complexity in existing accounting literature and improve the relevance of information provided to financial statement users by requiring the application of the same consolidation guidance by all reporting entities. The elimination of the exception may change the consolidation analysis, consolidation decision, and disclosure requirements for a reporting entity that has an interest in an entity in the development stage. The amendments related to the elimination of inception-to-date information and the other remaining disclosure requirements of Topic 915 should be applied retrospectively except for the clarification to Topic 275, which shall be applied prospectively. For public companies, those amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods therein. The Company has elected to early adopt these amendments and accordingly have not labeled the financial statements as those of a development stage entity and have not presented inception-to-date information on the respective financial statements.
Note 2 - Going Concern
As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred continuous losses from operations, has an accumulated deficit of $5,618,984, has a negative working capital of $1,799,814 and has cash on hand of $24,404 as of October 31, 2015, and has generated minimal revenues to date, all of which are from a related party. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management is currently seeking additional sources of capital to fund short term operations through debt or equity investments, including loans from Officers and Directors. The Company, however, is dependent upon its ability to secure equity and/or debt financing and there are no assurances that the Company will be successful, therefore, without sufficient financing it would be unlikely for the Company to continue as a going concern.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of any uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements also do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Note 3 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Under FASB ASC 820-10-5, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). The standard outlines a valuation framework and creates a fair value hierarchy in order to increase the consistency and comparability of fair value measurements and the related disclosures. Under GAAP, certain assets and liabilities must be measured at fair value, and FASB ASC 820-10-50 details the disclosures that are required for items measured at fair value.
The Company has convertible notes that must be measured under the new fair value standard. The Company’s financial assets and liabilities are measured using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. The three levels are as follows:
Level 1 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.
26 |
POCKET GAMES, INC.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
October 31, 2015 and 2014
Level 2 - Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and 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 (e.g., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that reflect our assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
The following schedule summarizes the valuation of financial instruments at fair value on a non-recurring basis in the balance sheets as of October 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively:

The aforementioned accounting treatment resulted in a total debt discount equal to $544,845 for the year ended October 31, 2015 and $45,980 for the year ended October 31, 2014. The discount is amortized on a straight line basis, which approximated the effective interest method due to the short term duration of the note, from the dates of issuance until the stated redemption date of the debts, as noted above. During the years ended October 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company recorded debt amortization expense in the amount of $263,470 and $3,893, respectively, attributed to the aforementioned debt discount.
In addition, a total of $48,000 and $3,000 of debt issuance cost were incurred pursuant to the closings of the convertible debentures during the years ended October 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, which are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the debentures using the straight line method, which approximate the effective interest method. The Company recorded a total of $24,692 ($25,672 net of discount) and $272 ($2,728 net discount) of interest expense pursuant to the amortization of the issuance cost during the years ended October 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
In accordance with ASC 815-15, the Company determined that the variable conversion features and shares to be issued represented derivative features, and these are shown as derivative liabilities on the balance sheet. The Company calculated the fair value of the compound embedded derivative associated with the convertible debentures utilizing a lattice model.
Note 7 – Derivative Liability
As discussed in Note 6 under Convertible Debentures, the Company issued convertible notes payable that provide for the issuance of convertible notes with variable conversion provisions. The conversion terms of the convertible notes are variable based on certain factors, such as the future price of the Company’s common stock. The number of shares of common stock to be issued is based on the future price of the Company’s common stock. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the promissory note is indeterminate. Due to the fact that the number of shares of common stock issuable could exceed the Company’s authorized share limit, the equity environment is tainted and all additional convertible debentures and warrants are included in the value of the derivative. Pursuant to ASC 815-15 Embedded Derivatives, the fair values of the variable conversion option and warrants and shares to be issued were recorded as derivative liabilities on the issuance date.
The fair values of the Company’s derivative liabilities were estimated at the issuance date and are revalued at each subsequent reporting date, using a multinomial lattice model. The Company’s current convertible debt derivative liabilities were $1,369,662 and $-0- at October 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
The fair values of the Company’s derivative liabilities were estimated at the issuance date and are revalued at each subsequent reporting date, using a lattice model. The Company recognized current derivative liabilities of $1,369,662 and $0 at October 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The change in fair value of the derivative liabilities resulted in a loss of $1,072,689 and $0 for the twelve months ended October 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, which has been reported as other expense in the statements of operations. The loss of $1,072,689 for the twelve months ended October 31, 2015 consisted of a loss of $181,659 due to the value in excess of the face value of the convertible notes, a net loss of $618,157 attributable to the fair value of warrants and a net loss in market value of $272,873 on the convertible notes.

Note 10 – Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC 740-10, which requires use of the liability method. FASB ASC 740-10-25 provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes, referred to as temporary differences.
For the years ended October 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company incurred net operating losses and, accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been recorded. In addition, no benefit for income taxes has been recorded due to the uncertainty of the realization of any tax assets. The net operating loss carry forwards, if not utilized, will begin to expire in 2028.
October 31, | October 31, | |||||||
Deferred tax assets: | 2015 | 2014 | ||||||
Net operating loss carryforwards | $ | 1,243,762 | $ | 372,642 | ||||
Net deferred tax assets before valuation allowance | 435,317 | 98,350 | ||||||
Less: Valuation allowance | (435,317 | ) | (98,350 | ) | ||||
$ | — | $ | — |
Based on the available objective evidence, including the Company’s history of its loss, management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets will not be fully realizable. Accordingly, the Company provided for a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets at October 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
A reconciliation between the amounts of income tax benefit determined by applying the applicable U.S. and State statutory income tax rate to pre-tax loss is as follows:
October 31, | October 31, | |||||||
2015 | 2014 | |||||||
Federal and state statutory rate | 35 | % | 35 | % | ||||
Change in valuation allowance on deferred tax assets | (35 | %) | (35 | %) |
Note 11 – Subsequent Events
Subsequent to October 31, 2015, the Company issued a total of 36,856,326 shares of common stock.
On February 9, 2016, Pocket Games, Inc. entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with Social Technology Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“STH”), AEL Irrevocable Trust (“AIT”), Sugar House Trust (“SHT”, and together with AIT, the “STH Majority Shareholders”) and David Lovatt, the principal and controlling shareholder of the Company (“Lovatt”) regarding the acquisition by the Company from the STH Majority Shareholders of 20,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of STH (the “STH Class A Common Stock”) and 2,000,000 shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of STH (the “STH Class B Common Stock”). The STH Class A Common Stock and the STH Class B Common Stock transferred to the Company by the STH Majority Shareholders constitute 80% of the issued and outstanding shares of STH Class A Common Stock and 100% of the STH Class B Common Stock.
In exchange for the STH Class A Common Stock and STH Class B Common Stock, the Company issued to the STH Majority Shareholders an aggregate of 320,000 shares of non-redeemable, voting convertible shares of Series B preferred stock of the Company (the “Company Series B Preferred Stock”). In addition, Lovatt, as the owner of 1,000 shares, or 100%, of Company’s Series A Preferred Stock, returned such shares to the Company treasury, in exchange for which the Company reissued 500 shares of such Series A Preferred Stock to the STH Majority Shareholders, and 500 shares of Company Series A Preferred Stock, together with 80,000 shares of Company Series B Preferred Stock, to Lovatt. Each share of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock entitles the holder(s) to cast 50,000 votes at any meeting of Company stockholders or in connection with any consents required of Company common stockholders.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.
On September 18, 2014, we dismissed our previous independent accountant, Salberg & Company, P.A. (hereafter “SCPA). Our Board of Directors approved the decision to change the Company’s independent accountants on September 5, 2014.
The report of SCPA regarding the Company’s financial statements for the past fiscal year ended October 31, 2013, contained in its S-1 registration statement for the past fiscal year ended October 31, 2013, did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to audit scope or accounting principles, except that the report contains an explanatory paragraph stating that there was substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2013 and during the period from October 31, 2013 through to September 5, 2014, the date of dismissal, there were no disagreements with SCPA on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of SCPA would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its report.
On September 5, 2014, we engaged M&K CPAS, PLLC (“M&K”), independent registered accountants, as our independent accountant.
From October 4, 2013 (inception) until September 5, 2014, the Company did not consult with M&K CPAS, PLLC with respect to any of (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed; (ii) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements; or (iii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K) or an event of the type described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Management’s Report on Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As of October 31, 2015, the end of our fiscal year covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, we concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of the end of the period covered by this annual report because there was no segregation of the duties with only a sole member in our management team. Our board of directors has only one member. We do not have a formal audit committee.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act, as amended). In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and related costs of control procedures. The objectives of internal control include providing management with reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition, and that transactions are executed in accordance with management’s authorization and recorded properly to permit the preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of October 31, 2015. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Our management has concluded that, as of October 31, 2015, our internal control over financial reporting is ineffective in providing reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles. This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
Inherent limitations on effectiveness of controls
Internal control over financial reporting has inherent limitations which include but is not limited to the use of independent professionals for advice and guidance, interpretation of existing and/or changing rules and principles, segregation of management duties, scale of organization, and personnel factors. Internal control over financial reporting is a process which involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis, however these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process and it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

(1) The business address of each of our directors is 909 Plainview Ave., Far Rockaway, New York 11691
Director Independence
Because our common stock is not currently listed on a national securities exchange, we have used the definition of “independence” of The NASDAQ Stock Market 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 of directors, 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 years was, an employee of the company;
· the director or a family member of the director accepted any compensation from the company in excess of $120,000 during any period of 12 consecutive months within the three years preceding the independence determination (subject to certain exclusions, including, among other things, compensation for board or board committee service);
· a family member of the director is, or at any time during the past three years was, an executive officer of the company;
· 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 exclusions);
45 |
· 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 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 years was a partner or employee of the company’s outside auditor, and who worked on the company’s audit.
We do not have any independent directors. We do not have an audit committee, compensation committee or nominating committee. We do however have a code of ethics that applies to our officers, employees and director.
Compensation of Directors
From time to time, our board members may receive cash or additional shares of common stock of the Company for their services. We do not regularly compensate our directors with cash in respect of their capacities as members of the Board, although we may do so in the future.
Board of Directors Meetings and Committees
Although various items were reviewed and approved by the Board of Directors via unanimous written consent during fiscal year ended October 31, 2015, the Board held no formal meetings.
We do not have Audit or Compensation Committees of our board of directors. Because of the lack of financial resources available to us, we also do not have an “audit committee financial expert” as such term is described in Item 401 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC.
Changes in Procedures by which Security Holders May Recommend Nominees to the Board
Any security holder who wishes to recommend a prospective director nominee should do so in writing by sending a letter to the Board of Directors. The letter should be signed, dated and include the name and address of the security holder making the recommendation, information to enable the Board to verify that the security holder was the holder of record or beneficial owner of the company’s securities as of the date of the letter, and the name, address and resumé of the potential nominee. Specific minimum qualifications for directors and director nominees which the Board believes must be met in order to be so considered include, but are not limited to, management experience, exemplary personal integrity and reputation, sound judgment, and sufficient time to devote to the discharge of his or her duties. There have been no changes to the procedures by which a security holder may recommend a nominee to the Board during our most recently ended fiscal year.

Executive Officers
David Lovatt and Elliott Polatoff are the Company’s executive officers. Mr. Lovatt serves as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, as well as our principal accounting and financial officer. Mr. Polatoff serves as the Company’s Secretary. Further information pertaining Mr. Lovatt and Mr. Polatoff’s business background and experience is contained in the section above marked DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE.
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
We are required to identify each person who was an officer, director or beneficial owner of more than 10% of our registered equity securities during our most recent fiscal year and who failed to file on a timely basis reports required by Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
To our knowledge, during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2015, based solely upon a review of such materials as are required by the Securities and Exchange Commission, no other officer, director, or beneficial holder of more than ten percent of our issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock failed to timely file with the Securities and Exchange Commission any form or report required to be so filed pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act of 1934.
Code of Ethics
The Company expects that its Officers and Directors will maintain appropriate standards of honesty and ethical conduct in connection with the performance of their duties on behalf of the Company. In recognition of this expectation, the Company has adopted a Code of Ethics. The purpose of this Code of Ethics is to codify standards the Company believes are reasonably necessary to deter wrongdoing and to promote honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships and full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the Company files with, or submits to, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), or other regulatory bodies and in other public communications made by the Company.

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION.
The following table summarizes the total compensation for the two fiscal years ended October 31, 2015 of each person who served as our principal executive officer or principal financial and accounting officer collectively, (the “Named Executive Officers”) including any other executive officer who received more than $100,000 in annual compensation from the Company. Except as noted in footnote (2) below, we did not award cash bonuses, stock awards, stock options or non-equity incentive plan compensation to any Named Executive Officer during the two years ended October 31, 2015, thus these items are omitted from the table below:

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS.
The following table sets forth the beneficial ownership of each of our directors and executive officers, and each person known to us to beneficially own 5% or more of the outstanding shares of our common stock, and our executive officers and directors as a group, as of February 6, 2016. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC and includes voting or investment power with respect to the securities. Unless otherwise indicated, we believe that each beneficial owner set forth in the table has sole voting and investment power and has the same address as us. Our address is 909 Plainview Ave., Far Rockaway, New York 11691. As of February 15, 2016, we had 61,196,255shares of common stock issued and outstanding and 1,000 shares of preferred stock outstanding. While each of our shares of common stock holds one vote, each share of our Series A Preferred Stock holds fifty thousand (50,000) votes. The following table describes the ownership of our voting securities (i) by each of our officers and directors, (ii) all of our officers and directors as a group, and (iii) each person known to us to own beneficially more than 5% of our common stock or any shares of our preferred stock.

Limitation of Liability of Directors and Officers; Indemnification and Advance of Expenses
Pursuant to our charter and under Section 607.0850 of the 2012 Florida Statutes (hereafter, the “Statutes”), our directors are not liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty, except for liability in connection with a breach of duty of loyalty, for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, for authorization of illegal dividend payments or stock redemptions under Florida law or any transaction from which a director has derived an improper personal benefit. Our charter provides that we are authorized to provide indemnification of (and advancement of expenses) to our directors, officers, employees and agents (and any other persons to which applicable law permits us to provide indemnification) through Bylaw provisions, agreements with such persons, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
We intend to enter into indemnification agreements with certain of our current directors and officers. The indemnification agreement will indemnify the indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by law, including against third-party claims and claims by or in right of the Company or any subsidiary or majority-owned partnership of the Company by reason of that person (including the advancement of expenses subject to certain
49 |
conditions) (a) being a director, officer employee or agent of the Company, or of any subsidiary or majority-owned partnership of the Company or (b) serving at our request as a director, officer, employee or agent of another entity. If appropriate, we will be entitled to assume the defense of the claim with counsel selected by us and approved by the indemnitee (which approval may not be unreasonably withheld). Separate counsel employed by the indemnitee will be at his or her own expense unless (1) the employment of separate counsel has been previously authorized by us, (2) the indemnitee reasonably concludes there may be a conflict of interest or (3) we have not, in fact, employed counsel to assume the defense of such claim.
The Bylaws of the Company provide for indemnification of Covered Persons substantially identical in scope to that permitted under the Florida Law. Such Bylaws provide that the expenses of directors and officers of the Company incurred in defending any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, must be paid by the Company as they are incurred and in advance of the final disposition of the action, suit or proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay all amounts so advanced if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company.
Disclosure of Commission Position on Indemnification for Securities Act Liabilities
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the provisions above, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable.
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities, other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by one of our directors, officers, or controlling persons in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding, is asserted by one of our directors, officers, or controlling persons in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and we will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue
Provisions of Our Charter and Bylaws
Our charter and bylaws provide that our board of directors will have the exclusive power to make, alter, amend or repeal any provision of our bylaws.
