ITEM 1. Business
Our Company
BorrowMoney.com, Inc. (“BorrowMoney.com”, the “Company”, “we” or “us”) operates what it believes to be the leading online loan marketplace for consumers seeking loans and other credit-based offerings. The Company’s online marketplace provides consumers with access to product offerings from active lenders (which the Company refers to as “Network Lenders”), including mortgage loans, home equity loans and lines of credit, reverse mortgage loans, auto loans, credit cards, deposit accounts, personal loans, student loans, small business loans and other related offerings. In addition, the Company offers tools and resources, including free credit scores, that facilitate comparison shopping for these loans, deposits and other credit-based offerings. The Company seeks to match consumers with multiple lenders, who can then provide them with competing quotes for the product they are seeking. By providing consumers access to a broad array of credit-based offerings directly from multiple lenders, rather than just multiple quotes from the same lender or indirectly through intermediaries, the Company believes its marketplace is differentiated from other providers operating loan comparison-shopping marketplaces.
The Company strategically designed and executed advertising and marketing campaigns (which is referred to as performance marketing) span a wide array of digital and traditional media acquisition channels and promote its BorrowMoney.com and other brands and product offerings. The Company’s marketing efforts are designed to attract consumers to its websites and toll-free telephone numbers. Interested consumers complete inquiry forms, providing detailed information about themselves and the loans or other offerings they are seeking. The Company refers to such consumer inquiries as loan requests. The Company then matches these loan requests with lenders in its marketplace that are seeking to serve these consumers’ needs. The Company plans to generate revenue from these lenders, generally at the time of transmitting a loan request to them, in the form of a match fee. In certain instances, outside the mortgage business, the Company plans to charge other kinds of fees, such as closed loan or closed sale fees. In addition to its primary loan request data referral business, BorrowMoney also matches consumers with lenders via website clicks and calls for which the Company anticipates lenders paying either front-end or back-end fees.
The Company is continually working to improve the consumer experience. The Company has made investments in technologically-adept personnel and utilizes in-market real-time testing to improve its digital platforms. Additionally, the Company works with its lenders, including providing training and other resources, to improve the consumer experience throughout the loan process. Further, the Company has been building and improving its My BorrowMoney platform, which provides a relationship-based consumer experience, rather than just a transaction-based experience.
The Company generated $0 revenues for the year ending August 31, 2023 and $24,930 for the year ending August 31, 2022.
Evolution and Future Growth of Our Business
The Company has actively sought to expand the suite of loan and other product offerings it provides to consumers, in order to both leverage the applicability of the BorrowMoney.com brand as well as more fully serve the needs of consumers and lenders. The Company believes that consumers with existing BorrowMoney-branded associations will be more likely to utilize its other service offerings than those of other providers whose brands consumers may not recognize.
In October 2021, the Company completed its backend and software and continued its development with My BorrowMoney.com, a platform that offers a personalized loan comparison-shopping experience, by providing free credit scores and credit score analysis. The platform enables the Company to observe consumers’ credit profiles and then identify and alert them to loan and other credit-based offerings in its marketplace that may be more favorable than the loans they have at a given point in time. This is designed to provide consumers with measurable savings opportunities over their lifetimes.
By expanding the Company’s portfolio of loans and other product offerings, it is growing and diversifying its business and sources of revenue. The Company intends to capitalize on its expertise in performance marketing, product development and technology and to leverage the widespread recognition of the BorrowMoney.com brand, in order to generate leads.

The Company believes the consumer and small business financial services industry has undergone a fundamental shift to online product offerings, similar to the shift that started in retail and travel many years ago and is now well established. The Company believes that, like retail and travel, as consumers continue to move towards online shopping and transactions for financial services, suppliers will increasingly shift their product offerings and advertising budgets toward the online channel. The Company believes the strength of its brands and of its lender network place the Company in a strong position to continue to benefit from this market shift.
Products
The Company currently reports its revenues in two product categories: (i) mortgage products and (ii) non-mortgage products. Non-mortgage products include credit cards, personal loans, home equity loans, reverse mortgage loans, auto loans, small business loans and student loans. Non-mortgage products also include deposit accounts, home improvement referrals and other credit products such as credit repair and debt settlement.
BorrowMoney.com does not charge individual consumers for the use of our services. Commercial loans may have certain service fees attached to their loans. Revenues from our mortgage products plan to be derived from lead generation fees paid by the Network Lenders that receive a loan request, and in some cases upfront fees for clicks or call transfers. Because a given loan request form can be matched with more than one Network Lender, up to five match fees may be generated from a single consumer loan request form. Revenues from the Company’s non-mortgage products plan to be derived from upfront match fees paid on delivery of a loan request, click or call and closed loan fees. For the Company’s products, the Company sends click traffic to issuers and anticipate being paid per approval.
Mortgage Products
The Company’s mortgage inquiry products category includes purchase and refinance products.
The Company partners with lenders throughout the United States to provide full geographic lending coverage and to offer a complete suite of loan offerings on our marketplace. To participate on its marketplace, lenders are required to enter into contracts that state the terms and conditions for such participation, although these contracts generally may be terminated for convenience by either party. The Company performs certain due diligence procedures on prospective new lenders, including screening against a national anti-fraud database maintained by the Mortgage Asset Research Institute, which helps manage risk exposure. The data is utilized to determine whether a lender and its principals are eligible to participate within the Company’s marketplace and have not been convicted of and/or penalized for fraudulent activity.
Consumers seeking mortgage loans through our loan marketplace can receive multiple conditional loan offers from participating lenders in response to a single loan request form. We refer to the process by which we match consumers and Network Lenders as the matching process. This matching process consists of the following steps:
1) | Loan Request. Consumers complete a single loan request form with information regarding the type of mortgage loan product they are seeking, loan preferences and other data. Consumers also consent to a soft inquiry regarding their credit. | |
2) | Loan Request Form Matching and Transmission. Our proprietary systems and technology match a given consumer’s loan request form data, credit profile and geographic location against certain pre-established criteria of Network Lenders, which may be modified from time to time. Once a given loan request passes through the matching process, the loan request is automatically transmitted to up to five participating Network Lenders. | |
3) | Lender Evaluation and Response. Network Lenders that receive a loan request form evaluate the information contained in it to determine whether to make a conditional loan offer. | |
4) | Communication of a Conditional Offer. All matched Network Lenders and any conditional offers are presented to the consumer upon completion of the loan request form. Consumers can return to the site and view their offer(s) at any time by logging in to their MyBorrowMoney.com profile. Additionally, matched lenders and offers are also sent to the email address associated with the consumer request. |
3 |
The Company also offers consumers other mortgage marketplace products such as:
- | an alternative “short-form” matching process, which provides them with lender contact information rather than conditional offers from Network Lenders, and | |
- | a “rate table” loan marketplace, where consumers can enter their loan and credit profile and dynamically view real-time rates from lenders without entering their contact information. |
Non-Mortgage Products
Lending Products. Other lending products which will soon be available on the Company’s online marketplace include information, tools and access to multiple conditional loan offers for the following:
- | Auto, which includes our auto refinance and purchase loan products. Auto loans enable consumers to purchase new or used vehicles or refinance an existing loan secured by an automobile. | |
- | Home equity loans and lines of credit, which enable homeowners to borrow against the equity in their home, as measured by the difference between the market value of the home and any existing loans secured by the home. Home equity loans are one-time lump sum loans, whereas a home equity line of credit reflects a line of revolving credit where the borrower has flexibility to draw down and repay the line. | |
- | Personal loans, which are unsecured obligations generally carrying shorter terms and smaller loan amounts than home mortgages. | |
- | Reverse mortgage loans, which are a loan product available to qualifying homeowners age 62 or older. | |
- | Small business loans, which include a broad array of financing types, including but not limited to loans secured by working capital, equipment, real estate and other forms of financing, provided to small and medium-sized businesses. | |
- | Student loans, which includes both new loans to finance an education and related expenses, as well as refinancing of existing loans. |
The Company intends to continue adding new lending offerings for consumers, small businesses and lenders on its online marketplace, in order to grow and diversify its sources of revenue. The Company may develop such new offerings through internal product development efforts, strategic business relationships with third parties and/or acquisitions.
Other Products. Other products will be available in the future and will include information, tools and access to the following:
- | Small business loans, which include a broad array of financing types, including but not limited to loans secured by working capital, equipment, real estate and other forms of financing, provided to small and medium-sized businesses. | |
- | Student loans, which include both new loans to finance education and related expenses, as well as refinancing of existing loans. | |
- | Deposit accounts, through which consumers can access depository deals and analysis covering all major deposit product categories. | |
- | Credit repair, through which consumers can obtain assistance improving their credit profiles, in order to expand and improve loan and other financial product opportunities available to them. | |
- | Debt relief services, through which consumers can obtain assistance negotiating existing loans. | |
- | Home improvement services, through which consumers have the opportunity to research and find home improvement professional services. | |
- | Personal credit data, through which consumers can gain insights into how prospective lenders and other third parties view their credit profiles. | |
- | Real estate brokerage services, through which consumers are matched with local realtors who can assist them in their home purchase or sale efforts. | |
- | Various consumer insurance products, including home and automobile, through which consumers are matched with insurance lead aggregators to obtain insurance offers. |
4 |
The Company refers to the various purchasers of leads from its other marketplaces as lead purchasers. The Company plans to generate revenue from the deposit account product from a consumer clicking from its website through to a financial institution’s website. The Company plans to generate revenue through the insurance products and real estate brokerage services through match fees paid to the Company by insurance lead aggregators and real estate brokers participating in its online marketplace. The Company plans to generate revenue from credit repair and debt relief services either through a fee for a customer referral to a service provider partner or through a fee at the time a consumer enrolls in a program with one of its partners. Revenue for home services is planned to be derived primarily through matching of leads to other home services lead aggregators.
Seasonality
The Company anticipates revenue in its lending business to be subject to cyclical and seasonal trends. Home sales (and purchase mortgages) typically rise during the spring and summer months and decline during the fall and winter months, while refinancing and home equity activity is principally driven by mortgage interest rates as well as real estate values. However, in certain historical periods, additional factors affecting the mortgage and real estate markets, such as the 2008-2009 financial crisis and ensuing recession, have impacted customary seasonal trends.
The Company anticipates revenue in its newer products will be cyclical as well; however, the Company has limited historical data to predict the nature and magnitude of this cyclicality. Based on industry data, the Company anticipates that as its personal loan product matures, will experience less consumer demand during the fourth and first quarters of each year. The Company anticipates higher consumer demand for deposit accounts in the first quarter of each year. The majority of consumer demand for student loan products occurs in the third quarter coinciding with collegiate enrollment in late summer. Other factors affecting its businesses include macro factors such as credit availability in the market, interest rates, the strength of the economy and employment.
Competition
The Company competes with other online marketing companies, including online intermediaries that operate network-type arrangements. The Company also faces competition from lenders that source consumer loan originations directly. These companies typically operate consumer-branded websites and attract consumers via online banner ads, keyword placement on search engines, direct mail, television ads, retail branches, realtors, brokers, radio and other sources, partnerships with affiliates and business development arrangements with others, including major online portals.
Product Development
The Company invests in the continued development of both new and existing products to enhance the experiences of consumers and lenders as they interact with the Company.
Corporate History
BorrowMoney.com, Inc. was incorporated in the state of New York on January 27, 2000. The Company was reincorporated in Florida on May 4, 2015. The Company completed a share exchange with all of the stockholders of BorrowMoney.com, Inc., a New York corporation whereby 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of the New York corporation were exchanged for 20 million shares of the Florida corporation, which resulted in BorrowMoney.com, Inc. The New York corporation becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of the Florida corporation. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to the “Company,” “we,” “our” “BorrowMoney” or “us” and other similar terms collectively means BorrowMoney.com, Inc., the Florida corporation.

Regulation and Legal Compliance
The goal of the Company’s businesses is to market and provide services in heavily regulated industries through a number of different online and offline channels across the United States. As a result, the Company is subject to a variety of statutes, rules, regulations, policies and procedures in various jurisdictions in the United States, including:
- | Restrictions on the manner in which consumer loans are marketed and originated, including, but not limited to, the making of required consumer disclosures, such as the Federal Trade Commission’s Mortgage Advertising Practices (“MAP”) Rules, federal Truth-in-Lending Act, the federal Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act, the federal Fair Housing Act, the federal Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (“RESPA”), and similar state laws; | |
- | Restrictions imposed by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd Frank Act”) and current or future rules promulgated thereunder, including, but not limited to, limitations on fees charged by mortgage lenders, mortgage broker disclosures and rules promulgated by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (“CFPB”), which was created under the Dodd-Frank Act; | |
- | Restrictions on the amount and nature of fees that may be charged to lenders and real estate professionals for providing or obtaining consumer loan requests, such as under RESPA; | |
- | Federal and State laws relating to the implementation of the Secure and Fair Enforcement of Mortgage Licensing Act of 2008 (the “SAFE Act”) that require us to be licensed in all States and the District of Columbia (licensing requirements are applicable to both individuals and/or businesses engaged in the solicitation of or the brokering of residential mortgage loans and/or the brokering of real estate transactions); | |
- | State and federal restrictions on the marketing activities conducted by telephone, mail, email, mobile device or the internet, including the Telemarketing Sales Rule (“TSR”), the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (“TCPA”), state telemarketing laws, federal and state privacy laws, the CAN-SPAM Act, and the Federal Trade Commission Act and their accompanying regulations and guidelines; | |
- | State laws requiring licensure for or otherwise imposing restrictions on the solicitation of or brokering of consumer loans which could affect us in our personal loan, automobile loan, student loan, credit card, or other non-mortgage consumer lending businesses; | |
- | Restrictions on the usage and storage of consumer credit information, such as those contained in the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act and the federal Credit Repair Organization Act; and | |
- | State “Bird Dog” laws which restrict the amount and nature of fees, if any, that may be charged to consumers for automobile direct and indirect financing. |
Intellectual Property
The Company believes that its intellectual property rights are vital to its success. To protect its intellectual property rights in its brand, technology, products, improvements, and inventions, the Company relies on a combination of trademarks, trade secrets, patents and other laws, and contractual restrictions on disclosure, including confidentiality agreements with strategic partners, employees, consultants and other third parties. As new or improved proprietary technologies are developed or inventions are identified, the Company plans to seek patent protection in the United States and abroad, as appropriate.
Many of the Company’s services are offered under proprietary trademarks and service marks. The Company generally applies to register or secure, by contract its principal trademarks and service marks as they are developed and used.
The Company reserves and registers its domain names when and where deemed appropriate, and currently have over 30 registered domain names. The Company also has agreements with third parties that provide for the licensing of patented and proprietary technology used in its business.
6 |
From time to time, the Company may be subjected to legal proceedings and claims, or threatened legal proceedings or claims, including allegations of infringement of third-party trademarks, copyrights, patents and other intellectual property rights of third parties. In addition, the use of litigation and other dispute resolution processes, such as Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution, may be necessary for the Company to enforce its intellectual property rights, protect trade secrets or to determine the validity and scope of proprietary rights claimed by others. Any litigation of this nature, regardless of outcome or merit, could result in substantial costs and diversion of management and technical resources, any of which could adversely affect its business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Penny Stock
The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a market 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. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, that: (a) contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; (b) 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 of such duties or other requirements of the securities laws; (c) contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; (d) contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; (e) defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and (f) contains such other information and is in such form, including language, type size and format, as the SEC shall require by rule or regulation.
The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (c) 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 (d) a monthly account statement 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 as to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement.
These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity for its common stock should the stock ever be traded on a public market. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling the securities.
Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans
The Company does not have any equity compensation plans.
9 |
The Company claims an exemption from registration for the grant/issuance and sales described above pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act, since the foregoing grant/issuance did not involve a public offering, the recipients were “accredited investors” and/or had access to similar information as would be included in a Registration Statement under the Securities Act. The securities were offered without any general solicitation by the Company or its representatives.

The securities are subject to transfer restrictions, and the certificates evidencing the securities contain an appropriate legend stating that such securities have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold absent registration or pursuant to an exemption therefrom. The securities were not registered under the Securities Act and such securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws.
Purchase of Equity Securities by the Issuer and Affiliated Purchasers

Overview
BorrowMoney.com, Inc. operates as a leading online loan marketplace for consumers seeking loans and other credit-based offerings. The Company offers borrowers “screened lenders” and takes steps to ensure the lender’s trustworthiness and legitimacy. The Company provides institutional lenders with innovative digital solutions by offering fintech technologically advanced gathered leads through an exclusive proprietary platform. Its online marketplace provides consumers with access to product offerings from our Network Lenders, including mortgage loans, home equity loans and lines of credit, reverse mortgage loans, auto loans, credit cards, deposit accounts, personal loans, student loans, small business loans and other related offerings. In addition, we offer tools and resources, including free credit scores that facilitate comparison shopping for these loans, deposits and other credit-based offerings. We seek to match consumers with multiple lenders, who can provide them with competing quotes for the product they are seeking.

The Company also serves as a valued partner to lenders seeking an efficient, scalable and flexible source of customer acquisition with directly measurable benefits, by matching the consumer inquiries we generate with these lenders.
The BorrowMoney.com platform offers a personalized loan comparison-shopping experience by providing free credit scores and credit score analysis. This platform enables us to observe consumers’ credit profiles and then identify and alert them to loan and other credit-based opportunities on our marketplace that may be more favorable than the loans they may have at a given point in time. This is designed to provide consumers with measurable savings opportunities over their lifetimes.
In addition to operating its core mortgage inquiry and leads business, the Company is focused on growing its non-mortgage lending businesses and developing new product offerings and enhancements to improve the experiences that consumers and lenders have as they interact with us. By expanding its portfolio of loans and other product offerings, the Company is growing and diversifying its business and sources of revenue. The Company intends to capitalize on its expertise in performance marketing, product development and technology, and to leverage the widespread recognition of the BorrowMoney.com brand to affect this strategy.
The Company believes the consumer and small business financial services industry is in the early stages of a fundamental shift to online product offerings, similar to the shift that started in retail and travel many years ago and is now well established. The Company believes that like retail and travel, as consumers continue to move towards online shopping and transactions for financial services, suppliers will increasingly shift their product offerings and advertising budgets toward the online channel. The Company believes the strength of its brands and its lender network, place the Company in a strong position to continue to benefit from this market shift.
BorrowMoney.com, Inc.’s main objective is to provide lead generation services to the mortgage and loan lenders. BorrowMoney.com, Inc.’s business model envisions providing current, qualified leads to local lending institutions nationwide. These leads will represent qualified borrowers in targeted zip code locations where the lender conducts business. The Company’s internet platform offers a portal geared toward providing services to lending institutions who would be its customers. The key function of the Company’s platform is to provide qualified leads to local mortgage and lending professionals. The Company generates customer inquiries using various marketing methods. The Company also sells advertising space on its website and creates revenue through the sale of advertisement space, membership fees and lead packages.
The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act. As such, is eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. If some investors find our securities less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our securities and the prices of our securities may be more volatile.
In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also 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 accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. The Company intends to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period until we are no longer an “emerging growth company.”
The Company will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) in which the Company has total annual gross revenue of at least $1.07 billion, or (b) in which is deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as (2) the date on which the Company has issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period.

Limited Operating History
The Company has not previously demonstrated that it will be able to expand its business through an increased investment in its product lines and/or marketing efforts. The Company cannot guarantee that the expansion efforts described in this report will be successful. The Company’s business is subject to risks inherent in growing an enterprise, including limited capital resources and possible rejection of its products and/or sales methods.
Management Changes
On December 1, 2022, the Board of Directors of BorrowMoney.com, Inc. accepted the appointment of Anne Marie Chipolone as a director of the BorrowMoney.com, Inc.
On September 1, 2023 the Board of Directors of BorrowMoney.com, Inc. accepted the appointment of Aldo Piscitello as President and Aldo Piscitello as Secretary of BorrowMoney.com, Inc.
Plan of Operations
The Company has completed its technology platform. The Company is now entering its operational phase which includes contracting business loan, mortgage and personal loan lenders for geographic areas using ZIP Codes. In addition to expanding its network of lenders over the next 12 months, the Company intends to continue optimizing and enhancing its Internet-based platform to focus on lead generation and generating additional revenues for the marketplace services. The Company’s mission is to be the premier loan lead generation company. The budget for the next 12 months is estimated to be $500,000, which is expected to come from friends, family, and officers. A breakdown of the estimated cost for our next 12 months of operation are as follows:
(000’s | ) | |||
Legal and Professional Fees | $ | 50.0 | ||
Web Hosting Service, and Maintenance | 8.0 | |||
Subcontracting Services | 280.0 | |||
Office Expenses | 5.0 | |||
IT Maintenance and Service | 10.0 | |||
Domain Names Hosting, Service and Maintenance | 2.5 | |||
Website Development and Related Service | 15.0 | |||
Licenses and Permits | 3.5 | |||
Marketing and Advertising | 50.0 | |||
Bank Charges and Credit Card Processing Fees | 3.0 | |||
Rent | 25.0 | |||
Dues and Subscriptions | 7.5 | |||
Computer Expenses | 5.0 | |||
Transfer and Recording Costs | 10.0 | |||
Office Space Rent | 22.0 | |||
Telephone Service | 3.5 | |||
Total | $ | 500.0 |
Revenues are expected to be minimal as the volume of lender agreements during this stage of operation is expected to increase at a gradual pace throughout the year. We expect to operate at a loss during our initial growth/operating period. President, Directors, or other executive officers will be compensated with sweat equity options until such time that the company has positive cash flows.
Contingent upon the successful completion of our next 12 months of operation, we plan to aggressively expand our operation and business from existing revenues. Our expansion would be accompanied by an increase in the number of personnel to obtain lender agreements for ever-expanding geographic areas.

Channels of Distribution; Marketing Costs
BorrowMoney.com markets and offers services directly to customers through its branded website allowing customers to be pre-qualified in a one stop platform and have access to all the major lenders and loan programs. The Company has made, and expects to continue to make, substantial investments in its online technology platform and marketing strategy to build its brand awareness in the marketplace that will drive traffic and generate leads. The need for online mortgages and personal money loan platform is driven not only by the millennium generation that are moving away from traditional brick and mortar banks but also from the new lifestyle changes caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. BorrowMoney.com expects to take advantage of this opportunity to capture a large portion of this “new” marketplace demand and increase its revenue exponentially.
Results of Operations
The Company had $0 in revenues for the year ended August 31, 2023 and $24,930 for the year ended August 31, 2022. The revenue decline is primarily attributed to the strategic shift in focus during the year ending August 31, 2023. While revenue for 2022 was non-mortgage related, 2023 saw no revenue due to the company’s dedicated resources in addressing unwarranted lawsuits from the former CFO. The company aims to resume revenue generation post-lawsuit conclusion, prioritizing financial stability and sustainable growth. Operating expenses for the year ended August 31, 2023 were $64,126 compared to $121,552 for the year ended August 31, 2022. Other expense for the year ended August 31, 2023 were $30,333 compared to $643,302 for the year ended August 31, 2022. The decrease in other expense was primarily due to fees of $605,111 incurred in the second quarter of 2022, related to the settlement with William Coburn, which was settled with the issuance of unrestricted common stock.
The following table provides selected financial data about the Company as of August 31, 2023, and August 31, 2022.

Critical Accounting Policies
The Company’s critical accounting policies, including the assumptions and judgments underlying them, are disclosed in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company has consistently applied these policies in all material respects. The Company does not believe that its operations to date have involved uncertainty of accounting treatment, subjective judgment, or estimates, to any significant degree.
Accounting Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents - For financial statement presentation purposes, the Company considers those short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash or cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents on August 31, 2023 and August 31, 2022.
Revenue Recognition - The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customer.” The Company applies the following five steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under each of its agreements:
Revenue is recognized based on the following five step model:
● | Identification of the contract with a customer | |
● | Identification of the performance obligations in the contract | |
● | Determination of the transaction price | |
● | Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract | |
● | Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation |
Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring those goods or services.
Going Concern
Because the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and negative operating cash flows, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on Management’s plans, which include potential asset acquisitions, mergers or business combinations with other entities, further implementation of its business plan and continuing to raise funds through debt or equity raises. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on its financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
As a smaller reporting company, as defined by Rule 229.10(f) (1) of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide the information required by this Item. The Company has chosen to disclose, however, that it has not engaged in any transactions, issued or bought any financial instruments or entered into any contracts that are required to be disclosed in response to this item.

Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Borrowmoney.com, Inc. as of August 31, 2023, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Borrowmoney.com, Inc. as of August 31, 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended August 31, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the entity’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to Borrowmoney.com, Inc. in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Borrowmoney.com, Inc. is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Substantial Doubt About the Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
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 yet to generate revenue from intended operations, has a net capital deficiency, and therefore a substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s evaluation of the events and conditions and management’s plans regarding 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. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.
Critical Audit Matters
Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. We determined that there are no critical audit matters
We have served as Borrowmoney.com, Inc.’s auditor since 2023.

BORROWMONEY.COM, INC.
Notes to the Financial Statements
For the Years Ended August 31, 2023, and 2022
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS
BorrowMoney.com, Inc. (the “Company”), a Florida corporation formed in 2015, provides an internet-based platform that can match mortgage and loan providers with prospective borrowers. The Company offers to borrowers “screened lenders” and ensures the lenders trustworthiness and legitimacy. The Company provides institutional lenders with innovative digital solutions by offering fintech technologically advanced gathered leads through an exclusive proprietary platform.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation - The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”).
Going
Concern - The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial
Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going
Concern (“ASU 2014-15”). The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue
as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course
of business. The Company has earned $ in revenue for the year ended August 31, 2023 and $
The Company is commencing operations to generate sufficient revenue; however, the Company’s cash position may not be sufficient to support the Company’s daily operations. Management intends to raise additional funds by way of a private or public offering. While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to commence operations and generate sufficient revenue and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that effect. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to further implement its business plan and generate sufficient revenue and its ability to raise additional funds by way of private offerings. The financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Reclassification of Prior Year Items - The Company reflected the reclassification of prior year items in order to be consistent with current period breakouts.
Accounting Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Risks and Uncertainties - The Company intends to operate in a highly competitive industry that is subject to intense competition, government regulation and rapid technological change. The Company’s operations are subject to significant risk and uncertainties including financial, operational, technological, regulatory, and other risks associated with an emerging business, including the potential risk of business failure.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents - For financial statement presentation purposes, the Company considers those short-term, highly liquid investments
with original maturities of three months or less to be cash or cash equivalents. There were

Website
Development Costs - The Company accounts for website development costs in accordance with
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350-50, Website Development Costs (“ASC 350-50”). All costs
incurred in the planning stage are expensed as incurred, costs incurred in the website application and infrastructure development stage
are accounted for in accordance with ASC 350-50 which requires the capitalization of certain costs that meet specific criteria, and costs
incurred in the day to day operation of the website are expensed as incurred. The Company capitalizes external website development costs
(“website costs”), which primarily include third-party costs related to acquiring domains and developing applications, as
well as costs incurred to develop or acquire and customize code for web applications, costs to develop HTML web pages or develop templates
and costs to create initial graphics for the website that included the design or layout of each page. The Company capitalized
$
Concentrations of Credit Risk - Accounts which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash, cash and cash equivalents. The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with an original purchased maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash and equivalents at insured financial institutions. The balances of which, at times may exceed the FDIC insured limits. Management believes the risk of loss is minimal.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments - The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and notes payable. Management estimates that the fair value of the notes payable does not differ materially from the aggregate carrying value of these financial instruments recorded (at cost) in the accompanying balance sheets. The Company has financial assets and liabilities, not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis, which primarily consist of cash, payables, and debt. The carrying value of cash and payables, approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature. Considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop the estimates of fair value and, accordingly, the estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange.
Fair Value Measurements - The Company measures fair value under a framework that utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements).
The three levels of inputs which prioritize the inputs used in measuring fair value are:
Level 1: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access.
Level 2: Inputs to the valuation methodology include:
● | Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; | |
● | Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets; | |
● | Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and | |
● | Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means. |
If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.
The assets or liabilities fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
When the Company changes its valuation inputs for measuring financial assets and liabilities at fair value, either due to changes in current market conditions or other factors, it may need to transfer those assets or liabilities to another level in the hierarchy based on the new inputs used. The Company recognizes these transfers at the end of the reporting period that the transfers occur. For the fiscal years ended August 31, 2023, and 2022 there were no significant transfers of financial assets or financial liabilities between the hierarchy levels.

Revenue Recognition - The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customer (“ASU No. 2014-09”). The Company applies the following five steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under each of its agreements-:
Revenue is recognized based on the following five step model:
● | Identification of the contract with a customer | |
● | Identification of the performance obligations in the contract | |
● | Determination of the transaction price | |
● | Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract | |
● | Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation |
Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring those goods or services.

Sales commissions and related expenses are considered incremental and recoverable costs of acquiring customer contracts. These costs are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the anticipated period of benefit. The Company determined the period of benefit by taking into consideration the length of its customer contracts, its technology lifecycle, and other factors. Amortization expense is recorded in sales and marketing expense within the statement of operations. Historically the Company has not incurred incremental cost to acquire customer contracts.
Income Taxes - The Company accounts for deferred income taxes on the asset and liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion of all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

When
tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities,
while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately
sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available
evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution
of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that
meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is
The Company’s evaluation of tax positions was performed for those tax years which remain open to audit. The Company may, from time to time, be assessed interest or penalties by the taxing authorities, although any such assessments historically have been minimal and immaterial to the Company’s financial results. In the event the Company is assessed interest and/or penalties, such amounts will be classified as income tax expense in the financial statements.
Related Party Transactions - The Company follows ASC 850-10, Related Party Disclosures (“ASC 850-10”), for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions. Pursuant to Section 850-10-20 the related parties include (a) affiliates of the Company (“Affiliate” means, with respect to any specified Person, any other Person that, directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by or is under common control with such Person, as such terms are used in and construed under Rule 405 under the Securities Act); (b) entities for which investments in their equity securities would be required, absent the election of the fair value option under the Fair Value Option Subsection of Section 825–10–15, to be accounted for by the equity method by the investing entity; (c) trusts for the benefit of employees, such as pension and profit-sharing trusts that are managed by or under the trusteeship of management; (d) principal owners of the Company; (e) management of the Company; (f) other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests; and (g) other parties that can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or that have an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. The financial statements shall include disclosures of material related party transactions, other than compensation arrangements, expense allowances, and other similar items in the ordinary course of business. However, disclosure of transactions that are eliminated in the preparation of consolidated or combined financial statements is not required in those statements. The disclosures shall include: (a) the nature of the relationship(s) involved; (b) a description of the transactions, including transactions to which no amounts or nominal amounts were ascribed, for each of the periods for which income statements are presented, and such other information deemed necessary to an understanding of the effects of the transactions on the financial statements; (c) the dollar amounts of transactions for each of the periods for which income statements are presented and the effects of any change in the method of establishing the terms from that used in the preceding period; and (d) amounts due from or to related parties as of the date of each balance sheet presented and, if not otherwise apparent, the terms and manner of settlement.

The
Company has approximately $
Future utilization of currently generated federal and state NOL and tax credit carry forwards may be subject to a substantial annual limitation due to the ownership change limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and similar state provisions. The annual limitation may result in the expiration of NOL and tax credit carryforwards before full utilization.
The Company determines whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based upon the technical merits of the position. If the more likely than not threshold is met, the Company measures the tax position to determine the amount to recognize in the financial statements. The Company performed a review of its material tax positions in accordance with these recognition and measurement standards. The Company has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring disclosure and there are not material amounts of unrecognized tax benefits.
The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to reverse.
The components of the current and deferred provision at August 31, 2023 and 2022 were as follows:

For the fiscal years ended August 31, 2023 and 2022, the valuation allowance increased primarily as a result of the increase in net operating losses. In assessing the realizability of deferred income tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized.
NOL Carryforwards and Other Matters
The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and the state of Florida. The Company’s federal and state tax years for the 2019 fiscal year and forward are subject to examination by taxing authorities.
The Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits as of August 31, 2023, and 2022. The Company’s policy is to account for any interest expense and penalties for unrecognized tax benefits as part of the income tax provision. The Company does not anticipate that unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease within the next twelve months.

(“BorrowMoney.com” or “Company”), (OTC: BWMY), announced that on March 21, 2023, its board of directors unanimously approved a change in auditors from ACCELL AUDIT & COMPLINCE, P.A. to BARTON CPA, a Texas CPA firm. The Company had chosen to use a more accessible CPA firm.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedure.
Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s Principal Executive Officer/Principal Financial Officer (our principal executive officer and principal financial officer), to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of Aldo Piscitello, who is the Company’s Principal Executive Officer/Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. The Company’s Principal Executive Officer/Principal Financial Officer has concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are, in fact, not effective, as the Company still lacks segregation of duties as of the period covered.
The Company does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by our Board, management and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:
● | pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; | |
● | provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and | |
● | provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. |
28 |
Management assessed the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of August 31, 2023. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in the 2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on this assessment, management concluded that its internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of August 31, 2023, due to the existence of the material weaknesses as of August 31, 2023, discussed below. A material weakness is a control deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected in the following areas:
● | Because of the Company’s limited resources, there are limited controls over information processing. | |
● | There is an inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives. The Company’s management is composed of only one person, resulting in a situation where limitations on segregation of duties exist. In order to remedy this situation, the Company would need to hire additional staff to provide greater segregation of duties. Currently, it is not feasible to hire additional staff to obtain optimal segregation of duties. Management will reassess this matter in the following year to determine whether improvement in segregation of duties is feasible. | |
● | The Company does not have a formal audit committee with a financial expert, and thus the Company lacks the board oversight role within the financial reporting process. | |
● | There is a lack of formal policies and procedures necessary to adequately review significant accounting transactions. The Company utilizes a third-party independent contractor for the preparation of its financial statements. Although the financial statements and footnotes are reviewed by its management, the Company does not have a formal policy to review significant accounting transactions and the accounting treatment of such transactions. The third-party independent contractor is not involved in the day-to-day operations of the Company and may not be provided information from management on a timely basis to allow for adequate reporting/consideration of certain transactions. |
Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth above were the result of the scale of its operations and are intrinsic to its small size. Management believes these weaknesses did not have a material effect on its financial results and intends to take remedial actions upon receiving funding for the Company’s business operations.
Management will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of its internal controls and procedures and its internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and is committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.
This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of our company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting due to permanent exemptions for smaller reporting companies.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
There were no changes to the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting, during the year ended August 31, 2023, that have been materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially effect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
Item 9B. Other Information
None.

Review, Approval and Ratification of Related Party Transactions
Given the Company’s small size and limited financial resources, has not adopted formal policies and procedures for the review, approval or ratification of transactions, such as those described above, with its executive officers, directors and significant stockholders. However, all of the transactions described above were approved and ratified by the Board of Directors. In connection with the approval of the transactions described above, the Board of Directors took into account various factors, including their fiduciary duty to the Company; the relationships of the related parties described above to the Company; the material facts underlying each transaction; the anticipated benefits to the Company and related costs associated with such benefits; whether comparable products or services were available; and the terms the Company could receive from an unrelated third party.
The Company intends to establish formal policies and procedures in the future, once the Company has sufficient resources and have appointed additional directors. On a moving forward basis, the Board of Directors will continue to approve any related party transaction based on the criteria set forth above.
