Effective June 6, 2018, Quanta, Inc., formerly known as Freight Solution, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Registrant” or the “Company”) consummated an Agreement of Merger and Plan of Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”), with Bioanomaly, Inc., a California corporation d/b/a Quanta (“Quanta”) and Quanta Acquisition Corp., a California corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Acquisition”). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Acquisition merged with and into Quanta in a statutory reverse merger (the “Merger”) with Quanta surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
Pursuant to the merger agreement, all the shareholders of Bioanomaly exchanged all of their shares of Bioanomaly for an aggregate of 21,908,810 newly issued shares of Freight Solution’s common stock. Freight Solution shareholders retained 6,500,000 shares of common stock, which represents 23% of the issued and outstanding stock following the merger.
Simultaneously with the Merger, the Company accepted subscriptions for 6,500,000 shares of common stock in a private placement offering (the “Offering”) at a purchase price of $0.20 per share, offered pursuant to Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) for the aggregate offering amount of $1,300,000. The Company also issued two non-affiliated individuals four-year warrants to purchase 3,000,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.30 per share.
Following the consummation of the Merger, Quanta shareholders beneficially owned approximately sixty-three percent (63%) of the issued and outstanding Common Stock of the Registrant.
On April 14, 2020, we issued to Eric Rice, our former Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, 2,500,000 shares of a newly created class of preferred stock, Series A Preferred Stock.
On November 16, 2020, the Company entered into a Control Block Transfer Agreement with Eric Rice and Phillip Sands, pursuant to which, Mr. Rice agreed to transfer 2,500,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Super Voting Preferred Stock to Mr. Sands, representing a transfer of majority voting control over the Company because the holder of such 2,500,000 shares of our Series A Super Voting Preferred Stock automatically carries a vote equal to 51% on all matters submitted to a vote of the holders of our Common Stock and Preferred Stock. On November 16, 2020, the Company entered into a Share Cancellation Agreement with Eric Rice, holder of 18,030,032 shares of QNTA Common Stock, pursuant to which Mr. Rice agreed to cancel 17,030,032 shares (16,951,432 shares were cancelled December 29, 2020), and to retain ownership of 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock.
On December 21, 2020, the Company entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement with Medolife Rx, Inc., a Wyoming corporation, (“Medolife”) pursuant to which, the Company agreed to acquire 51% of Medolife in exchange for 9,000 shares of newly created Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. On January 14, 2021, we completed our acquisition of 51% of Medolife and Medolife’s founder, Arthur Mikaelian, PhD, a member of our Board of Directors, officially replaced Phillip Sands as our Chief Executive Officer. Phillip Sands remains our President and serves with Dr. Mikaelian on our Board of Directors.
Medolife provides contract research services. The Company focuses on research, development, and production of pharmaceutical-grade products, as well as clinical evidence-based nutraceuticals utilizing patented polarization technology. Medolife Rx serves clients in the United States.
Quanta for 2021 will be undergoing a name change to be announced shortly as well as Quanta is in the process of expanding its product line from 4 SKUs to 38 by summer. We will also be introducing all new branding with new color schemes, new packaging, and exciting celebrity endorsements for the pain relief products and a newly introduced beauty product line. Quanta will also be working on a men’s cosmetic line in conjunction with one of the celebrity endorsements planned for late 2021. The company has hired an advertising agency to help with the rollout of the new branding expected second quarter 2021. This will work in conjunction with a major push the company is on the path of with some major big box retail chains.

Quanta Basics
Quanta is a cutting-edge technology platform whose patented, proprietary technology harnesses advances in quantum biology to increase the potency of active ingredients. Currently, Quanta supports product formulations in pain management, anti-inflammation, skincare, agriculture, nutritional supplements, and plant-based consumables. Ultimately, Quanta’s mission is to deliver better, more effective ingredients to elevate product efficacy, reduce waste and facilitate healthier, more sustainable consumption.
The established resonance theory behind Quanta’s polarization process has many potential applications. From potentiating bio-ingredients to produce more-effective carbon-trapping plants to transformative anti-aging solutions Quanta’s technology has the opportunity to upend how commercial products are made and the benefits from them. Already we see multi-trillion-dollar global industries benefiting from Quanta’s technology.
Our proof of concept, Quanta’s market-leading CBD pain-relief rub (“Muscle Rub”), is only the first in a series of paradigm shift products to emerge from our labs. At the heart of its well-documented effectiveness is our proprietary “polarization” process, which uses electromagnetic force to markedly enhance bioactivity at the molecular level—a polarized active ingredient is more soluble and creates stronger bonds with the body’s receptors. This allows us to enhance ingredients so they work faster and more powerfully without the use of chemical by-products or cellular penetration. Quanta believes this natural solution has nearly limitless applications in the world of plant-based consumer products.
Quanta is involved in ambitious projects that we believe will reshape the next wave of climate science, sustainability, nutrition, and more. Having harnessed the technology of the future, Quanta is dedicated to bringing tomorrow’s health and wellness solutions to the billions in need today.

SUMMARY OF BUSINESS
Quanta Basics
Quanta, Inc. (“Quanta”) is a cutting-edge technology platform whose patented, proprietary technology harnesses advances in quantum biology to increase the potency of active ingredients. Currently, Quanta supports product formulations in pain management, anti-inflammation, skincare, agriculture, nutritional supplements, and plant-based consumables. Ultimately, Quanta’s mission is to deliver better, more effective ingredients to elevate product efficacy, reduce waste and facilitate healthier, more sustainable consumption.
The established resonance theory behind Quanta’s polarization process has many potential applications. From potentiating bio-ingredients to produce more-effective carbon-trapping plants to transformative anti-aging solutions Quanta’s technology has the opportunity to upend how commercial products are made and the benefits from them. Already we see multi-trillion-dollar global industries benefiting from Quanta’s technology.
Our proof of concept, Quanta’s market-leading CBD pain-relief rub (“Muscle Rub”), is only the first in a series of paradigm shift products to emerge from our labs. At the heart of its well-documented effectiveness is our proprietary “polarization” process, which uses electromagnetic force to markedly enhance bioactivity at the molecular level—a polarized active ingredient is more soluble and creates stronger bonds with the body’s receptors. This allows us to enhance ingredients so they work faster and more powerfully without the use of chemical by-products or cellular penetration. Quanta believes this natural solution has nearly limitless applications in the world of plant-based consumer products.
Quanta is involved in ambitious projects that we believe will reshape the next wave of climate science, sustainability, nutrition, and more. Having harnessed the technology of the future, Quanta is dedicated to bringing tomorrow’s health and wellness solutions to the billions in need today.
Proof of Concept
Creating, producing and selling consumer products was never our primary focus; Quanta’s Muscle Rub was simply a means to an end - proof of concept and a revenue driver in a small emerging market as our business model took shape. Fundamentally, Quanta can be a licensing concern designed to collaborate with large brands to improve product quality and the profit margins of existing and new products. But the market needed proof and we chose to start in the under-developed category of CBD because of its speed to market.
Understandably, we met the same initial hurdles every start-up encounters. In addition to simply explaining quantum mechanics, we had no track record of success from a business standpoint. The immediate goal was to prove our model was defensible. Hence, we chose CBD as a launch category. This market provided protection from industry titans that may have felt threatened by such a powerful technology while allowing us to drive profits during R&D.
Over the last two years, we have developed and sold products largely to the medical industry, along with some consumer retail. This effort was designed to drive revenue and to prove the concept of our model: that polarizing a single ingredient can produce a demonstrably superior product that consumers find safe and effective (establish consumer appetite).
| 7 |
Discovery Synopsys
Using our product development process and business-to-business and direct-to-consumer sales approaches as a benchmark for future business, we developed the Quanta business model. Our technology’s unique ability to strengthen ingredients renders them more potent without added chemicals or penetrating cells means Quanta is in a first-of-its-kind position in the market. As the world’s first company focused on Quantum Biology we sit in a strong, but unique position in the market.
Our ability to increase ingredient efficacy by up to 500% means we are in a rare position to truly disrupt many areas of material science.
Quanta’s technology renders products superior to any on the market today. A 30% re-purchase rate (on one SKU alone) illustrates consumer appetite for the product.
Upcoming products and ventures will be designed to achieve or surpass this level of consumer benefit and uptake.
Quanta Business Model in 3 P’s: Potentiation, Partners, and Profits
After two years we believe the best possible model for the long-term success of the company is collaborating with best-in-class partners through joint ventures for new verticals, products, and research. These joint ventures may involve a jointly owned special purpose entity or they may be entirely based on contractual obligations.
Our mission has never been to create the best novel products on the planet. Our mission has always been to revolutionize the way formulations are developed and how products perform. We seek to work with the best product makers in the world to positively impact as many industries as possible.
The unique ability to increase the ingredient and product performance opens the doors for major opportunities. Higher performing ingredients mean less is needed to make a strong impact (increased margins, increase overall efficacy). We proved this with our Muscle Rub, which uses approximately 1/3 the CBD of competing products with demonstrably improved results.
The level of potentiation delivered by Quanta allows our partners the unique ability to provide higher-performing products, lower material costs, more competitive pricing and increased profit margins. In short, our partners will be able to make better performing, more affordable products with a higher repeat purchase. This is true disruption and consumer utopia.
We aim to work with groups that specialize in manufacturing, marketing, selling and distributing existing product lines that utilize ingredients we can potentiate. Partners like this facilitate efficient market delivery of joint innovations.
We believe this strategy provides greater shareholder value, enhances revenue potential, defrays upfront expenses and affords us the ability to raise capital for new projects without massive dilution.
Ultimately, these ventures would result in licensing out our technology to other reputable brands and companies to create co-branded products whereas the term “Powered by Quanta” becomes as recognized as “Intel Inside.”
We believe this type of partnership will afford a company Quanta partners with:
| ● | Development of emerging products with cutting edge ingredients. | |
| ● | A product line with a true point of differentiation. | |
| ● | New SKUs with an increased margin. | |
| ● | Decreased cost of goods sold. |
| 8 |
Simultaneously these partnerships will allow Quanta:
| ● | Greater brand recognition. | |
| ● | Increased revenue and in turn profitability. | |
| ● | Quicker timeline to more licensing opportunities because of a track record of success. | |
| ● | Brand to become synonymous with improving the performance of ingredients within products. |
Manufacturing Partnerships -
Quanta is currently focused on partnering with large-scale manufacturers and distributors able to produce products that meet the requirements of applicable regulations IE: Good Manufacturing Practices to fulfill orders of our own product line. This type of partnership is crucial because it will afford:
| ● | New product development that meets certification requirements | |
| ● | Much larger production scale | |
| ● | Speed to market | |
| ● | Increased distribution and profitability |
With our licensing capabilities, Quanta technology can render better, more efficacious products that cost less to create but command a higher purchase value because of polarized ingredients. This, in turn, allows companies to diversify their catalog of products while simultaneously providing them with a distinguished advantage. More efficacious ingredients.
Employees
As of the date of this report, Quanta has 10 full time and no part time employees. We believe we enjoy good employee relations. None of our employees are members of any labor union, and we are not a party to any collective bargaining agreement.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Summary of Key Results
Results of Operations for year ended December 31, 2020 compared to the year ended December 31, 2019
Revenue
Net sales are comprised of wholesale sales to our retail partners and sales through our direct-to-consumer channel. Net sales in both channels reflect the impact of product returns as well as discounts for certain sales programs or promotions.
For the year ended December 31, 2020 the Company recognized $1,124,721 in net sales. For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company recognized $1,232,200 in net sales. The decrease in sales is due to the change in management and furlough of most employees during the three months ended December 31, 2020, compared to 2019.
For the year ended December 31, 2020 the Company recognized $33,394 in license revenue. For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company recognized $31,788 in license revenue.
Expenses
Operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2020 were $6,262,680. The Company incurred $452,443 in research and development costs ($420,000 paid to related party), and $4,273,394 in selling, general, and administrative costs, including legal and professional fees of $886,589, and $1,281,750 of compensation and related costs, and an impairment of an operating lease right of use asset of $255,093.
Operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2019 were $6,453,091. The Company incurred $351,670 ($343,300 paid to related party) in research and development costs, and $4,799,030 in selling, general, and administrative costs, including legal and professional fees of $651,764, and $1,302,391 of compensation and related costs.
| 9 |
Other Income (Expense)
For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recognized $2,778,593 of net other expenses, including interest expense of $512,907, private placement costs of $381,084, debt discount amortization of $755,538, loss on debt extinguishment of $1,230,290 and income of $101,226 for the change in the fair market value of derivative liabilities.
For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company recognized $299,541 of net other expenses, including interest expense of $226,202, private placement costs of $238,395, $145,565 of extinguishment of derivative liabilities and income of $19,491 for the change in the fair market value of derivative liabilities.
Net Loss
Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $8,164,428. Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2019 was $5,787,364. We recorded no provision for federal income taxes for either period.
Basic and diluted loss per share - Basic and diluted loss per share for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $0.14 per share. Basic and diluted number of shares outstanding was 59,908,938 for 2020. Basic and diluted loss per share for the year ended December 31, 2019 was $.14 per share. Basic and diluted number of shares outstanding was 42,808,603 for 2019.
Going concern
We have yet to establish any history of profitable operations. For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company incurred a net loss of $8,164,428 and used cash in operating activities of $2,118,428, and at December 31, 2020 the Company had a stockholders’ deficit of $2,608,246. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued. As a result, our independent registered public accounting firm included an explanatory paragraph in its report on our financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020 with respect to this uncertainty. This going concern opinion could materially limit our ability to raise additional funds through the issuance of new debt or equity securities and future reports on our financial statements may also include an explanatory paragraph with respect to our ability to continue as a going concern.
At December 31, 2020, the Company had cash on hand in the amount of $6,270. Subsequent to December 31, 2020, the Company issued convertible notes payable and received net proceeds of $275,000 and received $1,263,000 for subscriptions to purchase 31,575,000 shares of common stock. Management estimates that the current funds on hand will be sufficient to continue operations through the next six months. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon improving its profitability and the continuing financial support from its shareholders. Management believes the existing shareholders or external financing will provide the additional cash to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due. No assurance can be given that any future financing, if needed, will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, if needed, it may contain undue restrictions on its operations, in the case of debt financing, or cause substantial dilution for its stockholders, in the case of equity financing
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in our financial statements including various allowances and reserves for accounts receivable and inventories, the estimated lives of long-lived assets and trademarks and trademark licenses, as well as claims and contingencies arising out of litigation or other transactions that occur in the normal course of business. The following summarizes our most significant accounting and reporting policies and practices:
| 10 |
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant accounting estimates include certain assumptions related to, among others, impairment analysis of long-term assets, valuation allowance on deferred income taxes, assumptions used in valuing stock instruments issued for services, assumptions made in valuing derivative liabilities, and the accrual of potential liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Revenue Recognition
The Company follows the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. Product revenue and costs of sales are recognized when control of the products transfers to our customer, which generally occurs upon shipment from our facilities. The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied at that time. The Company does not have any significant contracts with customers requiring performance beyond delivery, and contracts with customers contain no incentives or discounts that could cause revenue to be allocated or adjusted over time. The Company historically has offered no discounts, rebates, rights of return, or other allowances to clients which would result in the establishment of reserves against revenue.
Stock Compensation
The Company issues stock options, warrants, and shares of common stock as share-based compensation to employees and non-employees. The Company accounts for its share-based compensation to employees in accordance with FASB ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718). Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period. Recognition of compensation expense for non-employees is in the same period and manner as if the Company had paid cash for the services.
Convertible Notes with Fixed Rate Conversion Options
The Company may enter into convertible notes, some of which contain, predominantly, fixed rate conversion features, whereby the outstanding principal and accrued interest may be converted by the holder, into common shares at a fixed discount to the market price of the common stock at the time of conversion. This results in a fair value of the convertible note being equal to a fixed monetary amount. The Company records the convertible note liability at its fixed monetary amount by measuring and recording a premium, as applicable, on the Note date with a charge to interest expense in accordance with ASC 480 - “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”.

We have established disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that information relating to the Company is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2020, and have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2020 due to material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as described below.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) under the Exchange Act as a process designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. Management conducted an assessment of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020 based on the framework and criteria established by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) (COSO). Based on the assessment, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2020, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting were not effective.
We identified material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
The material weaknesses identified include (i) we had an insufficient number of personnel appropriately qualified to perform control design, execution and monitoring activities; (ii) we did not have written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures, including written policies and procedures to ensure the correct application of accounting and financial reporting with respect to the current requirements of U.S. GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; (iii) we had ineffective controls over our financial statement close and reporting process and did not provide reasonable assurance that accounts were complete and accurate and agreed to detailed support and that reconciliations of accounts were properly performed, reviewed and approved, (iv) we did not maintain effective controls over the recording and approval of recurring and non-recurring journal entries and (v) we had inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives.
Notwithstanding the identified material weaknesses, management has concluded that the Financial Statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K present fairly, in all material respects, the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods disclosed in conformity with U.S. GAAP.
Planned Remediation of Material Weaknesses
Our management has been actively engaged in developing and implementing remediation plans to address material weaknesses described above. These remediation efforts are ongoing and include or are expected to include preparation of written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures, increasing personnel resources and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function, and to hire one or more additional personnel. During the third and fourth quarters of 2020, and as of the date of this Report, we continue to work with an outside consultant with experience and expertise in U.S. GAAP and public company SEC accounting and reporting requirements to assist management with its accounting and reporting of complex and/or non-recurring transactions and related disclosures.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in internal control over financial reporting (as defined by Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the year ended December 31, 2020, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, intends that our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. However, our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon 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; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
None.

Board of Directors
Each director is elected by the Board and serves until his or her successor is elected and qualified, unless he or she resigns or is removed earlier. Each of our officers is elected by the Board to a term of one (1) year and serves until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified, or until he or she is earlier removed from office or resigns.
At the very least all directors will be reimbursed by the Company for expenses incurred in attending directors’ meetings provided that the Company has sufficient resources to pay these expenses. The Company will consider in applying for officers and directors’ liability insurance at such time that it has the financial resources to do so.
| 14 |
Committees of the Board of Directors
Concurrent with having sufficient members and resources, our Board of Directors intends to establish an audit committee and a compensation committee. The audit committee will review the results and scope of the audit and other services provided by the independent auditors and review and evaluate the system of internal controls. The compensation committee will review and recommend compensation arrangements for the officers and employees. No final determination has yet been made as to the memberships of these committees or when we will have sufficient members to establish committees. We believe that we will need a minimum of three independent directors to have effective committee systems.
As of the date hereof, we have not established any Board committees.
Family Relationships
No family relationship exists between any director, executive officer, or any person contemplated to become such.
Director Independence
We currently do not have any independent directors serving on our board of directors.
Possible Potential Conflicts
The OTC Markets, on which we have our shares of common stock quoted, does not currently have any director independence requirements.
Certain conflicts of interest may arise between us and our officer(s) and director(s) in that they may have other business interests in the future to which they devote their attention, and they may be expected to continue to do so although management time must also be devoted to our business. As a result, conflicts of interest may arise that can be resolved only through their exercise of such judgment as is consistent with each officer’s understanding of his/her fiduciary duties to us.
Currently we have two officers and two directors and will seek to add additional officer(s) and/or director(s) as and when the proper personnel are located and terms of employment are mutually negotiated and agreed, and we have sufficient capital resources and cash flow to make such offers.
We cannot provide assurances that our efforts to eliminate the potential impact of conflicts of interest will be effective.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
None of our directors or executive officers has, during the past ten years:
| ● | has had any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which he was a general partner or executive officer, either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time; | |
| ● | been convicted in a criminal proceeding or been subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offences); | |
| ● | been subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities, futures, commodities or banking activities; | |
| ● | been found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the Securities and Exchange Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated; or | |
| ● | been subject or a party to or any other disclosable event required by Item 401(f) of Regulation S-K. |
| 15 |
Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
Upon incorporation we adopted a written code of ethics applicable to our board of directors, officers and employees in accordance with applicable Federal and states securities laws. Our board of directors shall oversee compliance with the code of ethics as it relates to the Company through an officer designated by the board. Employees are required to report known and suspected breaches of our code of ethics to an appropriate supervisor, or in the case of officers and directors, to a senior officer designated by our board of directors. Our code of ethics is designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote:
| ● | honest and ethical conduct; | |
| ● | full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that we will file with securities regulators and in our other public communications; | |
| ● | compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations, including insider trading compliance; and | |
| ● | accountability for adherence to the code and prompt internal reporting of violations of the code, including illegal or unethical behavior regarding accounting or auditing practices. |
A copy of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as Exhibit 14.1 to our Registration Statement filed on Form S-1 on June 1, 2017
Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors, executive officers and holders of more than 10% of our common stock to file with the SEC initial statements of beneficial ownership of our securities (Form 3) and statements of changes in beneficial ownership of our securities (Forms 4 and 5). As of December 31, 2020, our former directors, executive officers and holders of more than 10% of our common stock had not filed the required reports with the SEC.
Based on a review of Forms 3 filed in January 2020, the Company believes that each of our former officers and directors: Eric Rice, Jeffrey Doiron, Blake Gillette and Kirk Westwood filed such forms late. Messrs. Doiron, Gillette and Westwood also each filed a Form 4 in January 2020 each untimely reporting one transaction that occurred in December 2019. Mr. Rice also filed a Form 4 in January 2020 untimely reporting 29 transactions that had occurred between November and December 2019.

Subject to the beneficial ownership limitations of 9.99%, set forth in Section 5 (b) of the attached Series C Convertible Preferred Stock Certificate of Designation, each holder of the Series C Preferred Stock shall have the right to vote on any matter that may from time to time be submitted to the Company’s shareholders for a vote, on an as converted basis, either by written consent or by proxy.

Any of Preferred Stock or any rights to purchase preferred shares may have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire control of us. This may delay, defer or prevent a change of control in our Company or an unsolicited acquisition proposal. The issuance of Preferred Stock also could decrease the amount of earnings attributable to, and assets available for distribution to, the holders of our Common Stock and could adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting rights, of the holders of our Common Stock.

Our articles of incorporation authorize the issuance of 500,000,000 shares of Common Stock. There are 100,975,328 shares of our Common Stock issued and outstanding at April 9, 2021. On November 20, 2020, the Board of Directors approved an increase in the Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock from 100,000,000 to 500,000,000 shares by Unanimous Written Consent. The Secretary of State of Nevada approved the share increase. The holders of our Common Stock:
| ● | have equal ratable rights to dividends from funds legally available for payment of dividends when, as and if declared by the board of directors; | |
| ● | are entitled to share ratably in all of the assets available for distribution to holders of Common Stock upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our affairs; | |
| ● | do not have preemptive, subscription or conversion rights, or redemption or access to any sinking fund; and | |
| ● | are entitled to one non-cumulative vote per share on all matters submitted to stockholders for a vote at any meeting of stockholders |
| 22 |
See Plan of Distribution regarding negative implications of being classified as a “Penny Stock.”
Authorized but Unissued Capital Stock
Nevada law does not require stockholder approval for the issuance of authorized shares. These additional shares may be used for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public offerings to raise additional capital or to facilitate corporate acquisitions.
One of the effects of the existence of unissued and unreserved Common Stock (or Preferred Stock) may be to enable our board of directors to issue shares to persons friendly to current management, which issuance could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of our board by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise, and thereby protect the continuity of our management and possibly deprive the stockholders of opportunities to sell their shares of our Common Stock at prices higher than prevailing market prices.
Shareholder Matters
As an issuer of “penny stock” the protection provided by the federal securities laws relating to forward looking statements does not apply to us if our shares are considered to be penny stocks (which they currently are and probably will be for the foreseeable future). Although the federal securities law provide a safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by a public company that files reports under the federal securities laws, this safe harbor is not available to issuers of penny stocks. As a result, we will not have the benefit of this safe harbor protection in the event of any claim that the material provided by us, including this Annual Report, contained a material misstatement of fact or was misleading in any material respect because of our failure to include any statements necessary to make the statements not misleading.
As a Nevada corporation, we are subject to the Nevada Revised Statutes (“NRS” or “Nevada law”). Certain provisions of Nevada law described below create rights that might be deemed material to our shareholders. Other provisions might delay or make more difficult acquisitions of our stock or changes in our control or might also have the effect of preventing changes in our management or might make it more difficult to accomplish transactions that some of our shareholders may believe to be in their best interests.
Directors’ Duties. Section 78.138 of the Nevada law allows our directors and officers, in exercising their powers to further our interests, to consider the interests of our employees, suppliers, creditors and shippers. They can also consider the economy of the state and the nation, the interests of the community and of society and our long-term and short-term interests and shareholders, including the possibility that these interests may be best served by our continued independence. Our directors may resist a change or potential change in control if they, by a majority vote of a quorum, determine that the change or potential change is opposed to or not in our best interest. Our board of directors may consider these interests or have reasonable grounds to believe that, within a reasonable time, any debt which might be created as a result of the change in control would cause our assets to be less than our liabilities, render us insolvent, or cause us to file for bankruptcy protection
Dissenters’ Rights. Among the rights granted under Nevada law which might be considered material is the right for shareholders to dissent from certain corporate actions and obtain payment for their shares (see NRS 92A.380-390). This right is subject to exceptions, summarized below, and arises in the event of mergers or plans of exchange. This right normally applies if shareholder approval of the corporate action is required either by Nevada law or by the terms of the articles of incorporation.
A shareholder does not have the right to dissent with respect to any plan of merger or exchange, if the shares held by the shareholder are part of a class of shares which are:
| ● | listed on a national securities exchange, | |
| ● | included in the national market system by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”), or \ | |
| ● | held of record by not less than 2,000 holders. |
This exception notwithstanding, a shareholder will still have a right of dissent if it is provided for in the articles of incorporation or if the shareholders are required under the plan of merger or exchange to accept anything but cash or owner’s interests, or a combination of the two, in the surviving or acquiring entity, or in any other entity falling in any of the three categories described above in this paragraph.
| 23 |
Inspection Rights. Nevada law also specifies that shareholders are to have the right to inspect company records (see NRS 78.105). This right extends to any person who has been a shareholder of record for at least six months immediately preceding his demand. It also extends to any person holding, or authorized in writing by the holders of, at least 5% of outstanding shares. Shareholders having this right are to be granted inspection rights upon five days’ written notice. The records covered by this right include official copies of:
| i. | the articles of incorporation, and all amendments thereto, | |
| ii. | bylaws and all amendments thereto; and | |
| iii. | a stock ledger or a duplicate stock ledger, revised annually, containing the names, alphabetically arranged, of all persons who are stockholders of the corporation, showing their places of residence, if known, and the number of shares held by them, respectively. |
In lieu of the stock ledger or duplicate stock ledger, Nevada law provides that the corporation may keep a statement setting out the name of the custodian of the stock ledger or duplicate stock ledger, and the present and complete post office address, including street and number, if any, where the stock ledger or duplicate stock ledger specified in this section is kept.
Control Share Acquisitions. Sections 78.378 to 78.3793 of Nevada law contain provisions that may prevent any person acquiring a controlling interest in a Nevada-registered company from exercising voting rights. To the extent that these rights support the voting power of minority shareholders, these rights may also be deemed material. These provisions will be applicable to us as soon as we have 200 shareholders of record with at least 100 of these having addresses in Nevada as reflected on our stock ledger. While we do not yet have the required number of shareholders in Nevada or elsewhere, it is possible that at some future point we will reach these numbers and, accordingly, these provisions will become applicable. We do not intend to notify shareholders when we have reached the number of shareholders specified under these provisions of Nevada law. Shareholders can learn this information pursuant to the inspection rights described above and can see the approximate number of our shareholders by checking under Item 5 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K. This form is filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission within 90 days after the close of each fiscal year hereafter. You can view these and our other filings at www.sec.gov in the “EDGAR” database.
Under NRS Sections 78.378 to 78.3793, an acquiring person who acquires a controlling interest in company shares may not exercise voting rights on any of these shares unless these voting rights are granted by a majority vote of our disinterested shareholders at a special shareholders’ meeting held upon the request and at the expense of the acquiring person. If the acquiring person’s shares are accorded full voting rights and the acquiring person acquires control shares with a majority or more of all the voting power, any shareholder, other than the acquiring person, who does not vote for authorizing voting rights for the control shares, is entitled to demand payment for the fair value of their shares, and we must comply with the demand. An “acquiring person” means any person who, individually or acting with others, acquires or offers to acquire, directly or indirectly, a controlling interest in our shares. “Controlling interest” means the ownership of our outstanding voting shares sufficient to enable the acquiring person, individually or acting with others, directly or indirectly, to exercise one-fifth or more but less than one-third, one-third or more but less than a majority, or a majority or more of the voting power of our shares in the election of our directors. Voting rights must be given by a majority of our disinterested shareholders as each threshold is reached or exceeded. “Control shares” means the company’s outstanding voting shares that an acquiring person acquires or offers to acquire in an acquisition or within 90 days immediately preceding the date when the acquiring person becomes an acquiring person.
These Nevada statutes do not apply if a company’s articles of incorporation or bylaws in effect on the tenth day following the acquisition of a controlling interest by an acquiring person provide that these provisions do not apply.
According to NRS 78.378, the provisions referred to above will not restrict our directors from taking action to protect the interests of our Company and its shareholders, including without limitation, adopting or executing plans, arrangements or instruments that deny rights, privileges, power or authority to a holder of a specified number of shares or percentage of share ownership or voting power. Likewise, these provisions do not prevent directors or shareholders from including stricter requirements in our articles of incorporation or bylaws relating to the acquisition of a controlling interest in the Company.
Our articles of incorporation and bylaws do not exclude us from the restrictions imposed by NRS 78.378 to 78.3793, nor do they impose any more stringent requirements.
| 24 |
Certain Business Combinations. Sections 78.411 to 78.444 of the Nevada law may restrict our ability to engage in a wide variety of transactions with an “interested shareholder.” As was discussed above in connection with NRS 78.378 to 78.3793, these provisions could be considered material to our shareholders, particularly to minority shareholders. They might also have the effect of delaying or making more difficult acquisitions of our stock or changes in our control. These sections of NRS are applicable to any Nevada company with 200 or more stockholders of record and that has a class of securities registered under Section 12 of the 1934 Securities Exchange Act, unless the company’s articles of incorporation provide otherwise. By the filing of our Registration Statement on Form S-1, we are not registering our Common Stock under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act. However upon effectiveness of the Registration Statement on Form S-1 we became subject to those very statutes.
These provisions of Nevada law prohibit us from engaging in any “combination” with an interested stockholder for three years after the interested stockholder acquired the shares that cause him/her to become an interested shareholder, unless he had prior approval of our board of directors. The term “combination” is described in NRS 78.416 and includes, among other things, mergers, sales or purchases of assets, and issuances or reclassifications of securities. If the combination did not have prior approval, the interested shareholder may proceed after the three-year period only if the shareholder receives approval from a majority of our disinterested shares or the offer meets the requirements for fairness that are specified in NRS 78.441-42. For the above provisions, a “resident domestic corporation” means a Nevada corporation that has 200 or more shareholders. An “interested stockholder” is defined in NSR 78.423 as someone who is either:
| ● | the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of 10% or more of the voting power of our outstanding voting shares; or | |
| ● | our affiliate or associate and who within three years immediately before the date in question, was the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of 10% or more of the voting power of our outstanding shares at that time. |
Amendments to Bylaws. Our articles of incorporation provide that the power to adopt, alter, amend, or repeal our bylaws is vested exclusively with the board of directors. In exercising this discretion, our board of directors could conceivably alter our bylaws in ways that would affect the rights of our shareholders and the ability of any shareholder or group to effect a change in our control; however, the board would not have the right to do so in a way that would violate law or the applicable terms of our articles of incorporation.
Transfer Agent
The transfer agent for our Common Stock is Action Stock Transfer Corporation, 2469 E. Fort Union Blvd, Suite 214, Salt Lake City, Utah 84121. Its telephone number is (801) 274-1088.
Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.
We have not entered into any transactions with our officers, directors, persons nominated for these positions, beneficial owners of 5% or more of our common stock, or family members of those persons wherein the amount our total assets for the last two fiscal years or the transition period ended December 31, 2018. Arthur Mikaenlian executed an agreement with the Company for the license of proprietary supplements (refer to Footnote regarding related parties). In addition, Dr. Makaelian entered into a licensing agreement with the Company in 2019. The agreement has been modified. The agreement predates Dr. Makaelian,s appointment as an officer and director.
On May 20, 2019, the Company agreed to issue 8,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with vesting terms to Arthur G. Mikaelian, Ph.D , a consultant for services. 1,000,000 shares vested immediately, and the balance of 7,000,000 shares will vest 625,000 shares per quarter over 2.8 years. The award predates Dr. Makaelian,s appointment as an officer and director.
On December 21, 2020, the Company entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement with Medolife Rx, Inc., a Wyoming corporation, (“Medolife Rx”) pursuant to which, the Company agreed to acquire 51% of Medolife Rx from entities controlled by Arthur G. Mikaelian, Ph.D. in exchange for 9,000 shares of newly created Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. Prior to this transaction,
Related Person Transaction Policy
Our Board of Directors is responsible to approve all related party transactions. We have not adopted written policies and procedures specifically for related person transactions.
Director Independence
For purposes of determining director independence, we have applied the definitions set out in NASDAQ Rule 5605(a)(2). The NASDAQ definition of “Independent Director” means a person other than an Executive Officer or employee of the Company or any other individual having a relationship which, in the opinion of the Company’s Board, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.
According to the NASDAQ definition, Mr. Phillip Sands is not an independent director because he currently holds the title of officer in the Company.

INDEX TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
| F-1 |
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Shareholders and Board of Directors of Quanta, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Quanta, Inc. and Subsidiary (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years 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 the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, during the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company incurred a net loss and utilized cash in operations, and at December 31, 2020, had a stockholders deficit. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s 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 the Company 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. The Company 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 Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. 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.
We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2019.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2020 AND 2019
NOTE 1 – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Quanta, Inc. (the “Company”) is an applied science company focused on increasing energy levels in plant matter to increase performance within the human body. The Company’s operations are based in Burbank, California. On April 28, 2016, the Company was incorporated as Freight Solution, Inc. in the State of Nevada. Effective June 6, 2018, the Company (then known as Bioanomaly Inc.) was acquired by Freight Solution in a transaction accounted for as a reverse merger transaction. On July 11, 2018, the Company changed its name to Quanta, Inc.
On December 21, 2020, the Company entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement with Medolife Rx, Inc., a Wyoming corporation, (“Medolife Rx”) pursuant to which, the Company agreed to acquire 51% of Medolife Rx in exchange for 9,000 shares of newly created Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. On January 14, 2021, we completed the acquisition of 51% of Medolife, which has nominal assets, liabilities, and operations. (see Notes 12 and 13).
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, for the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company incurred a net loss of $8,164,428 and used cash in operating activities of $2,118,172, and at December 31, 2020, the Company had a stockholders’ deficit of $2,608,246. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date that the financial statements are issued. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
At December 31, 2020, the Company had cash on hand in the amount of $6,270. Subsequent to December 31, 2020, the Company issued convertible notes payable and received net proceeds of $275,000 and received $1,263,000 for subscriptions to purchase 31,57,000 shares of common stock. Management estimates that the current funds on hand will be sufficient to continue operations through the next six months. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon improving its profitability and the continuing financial support from its shareholders. Management believes the existing shareholders or external financing will provide the additional cash to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due. No assurance can be given that any future financing, if needed, will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, if needed, it may contain undue restrictions on its operations, in the case of debt financing, or cause substantial dilution for its stockholders, in the case of equity financing
Basis of presentation and principles of consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting standards generally accepted in the United States of America.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Quanta Inc, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Bioanomaly, Inc. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant accounting estimates include certain assumptions related to, among others, allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, impairment analysis of long-term assets, valuation allowance on deferred income taxes, assumptions used in valuing stock instruments issued for services, assumptions made in valuing derivative liabilities, and the accrual of potential liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Revenue recognition
The Company follows the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASC 606 creates a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering the terms of contracts, which includes (1) identifying the contracts or agreements with a customer, (2) identifying our performance obligations in the contract or agreement, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the separate performance obligations, and (5) recognizing revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the services it transfers to its clients.
| F-7 |
Product Sales—Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is derived from product sales. Product revenue and costs of sales are recognized when control of the products transfers to our customer, which generally occurs upon shipment from our facilities. The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied at that time. The Company does not have any significant contracts with customers requiring performance beyond delivery, and contracts with customers contain no incentives or discounts that could cause revenue to be allocated or adjusted over time.
License revenue— Revenue from symbolic IP is recognized over the access period to the Company’s IP (see Note 2).
Cost of goods sold includes direct costs and fees related to the sale of our products.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are recorded net of an allowance for any uncollectible accounts if deemed necessary, and payments are generally due within thirty to forty-five days of invoicing. Management reviews the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts on an ongoing basis, using historical collection trends and aging of receivables. Management also periodically evaluates individual customer’s financial condition, credit history, and the current economic conditions to make adjustments in the allowance when it is considered necessary. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. At December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company did not record any allowance for uncollectible accounts.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value with cost determined on a first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) basis. We regularly review our inventory quantities on hand and record a provision for excess and obsolete inventory based primarily on our estimated forecast of product demand and our ability to sell the product(s) concerned. Demand for our products can fluctuate significantly. Additionally, our management’s estimates of future product demand may be inaccurate, which could result in an understated or overstated provision required for excess and obsolete inventory. At December 31, 2020, a reserve for raw materials, product obsolescence and packaging for products that may no longer be viable of $9,125 has been established. No such reserves were established for fiscal year 2019.
Equipment
Equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the equipment, which is three years, using the straight-line method. Expenditures for major additions and improvements are capitalized and minor repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. When equipment is retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations for the respective period.
Management assesses the carrying value of equipment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. If there is indication of impairment, management prepares an estimate of future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. If these cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized to write down the asset to its estimated fair value. For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company determined there were no indicators of impairment of its property and equipment.
Impairment of Long-lived Assets
The Company reviews its equipment, right-of-use assets, and other long-lived assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable. Recoverability is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the assets. Fair value is generally determined using the asset’s expected future discounted cash flows or market value, if readily determinable. For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had no impairment of long-lived assets.
Leases
The Company accounts for its leases in accordance with the guidance of ASC 842, Leases. The Company determines whether a contract is, or contains, a lease at inception. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset during the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at lease commencement based upon the estimated present value of unpaid lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at lease commencement in determining the present value of unpaid lease payments The Company adopted ASC 842 on January 1, 2019. There was no cumulative-effect adjustment to accumulated deficit (see Note 5).
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses a probability weighted average Black-Scholes-Merton model to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates through the December 31, 2020, reporting date. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period,
| F-8 |
Convertible Notes with Fixed Rate Conversion Options
The Company may enter into convertible notes, some of which contain, predominantly, fixed rate conversion features, whereby the outstanding principal and accrued interest may be converted by the holder, into common shares at a fixed discount to the market price of the common stock at the time of conversion. This results in a fair value of the convertible note being equal to a fixed monetary amount. The Company records the convertible note liability at its fixed monetary amount by measuring and recording a premium, as applicable, on the Note date with a charge to interest expense in accordance with ASC 480 - “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”.
Income taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using an asset and liability approach which allows for the recognition and measurement of deferred tax assets based upon the likelihood of realization of tax benefits in future years. Under the asset and liability approach, deferred taxes are provided for the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize their benefits, or that future deductibility is uncertain.
Stock-based compensation
The Company periodically issues stock options, warrants, shares of common stock, and restricted stock unit awards, as share-based compensation to employees and non-employees. The Company accounts for its share-based compensation in accordance with FASB ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718). Stock-based compensation cost for employees is measured at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period. Recognition of compensation expense for non-employees is in the same period and manner as if the Company had paid cash for the services.
The fair value of the Company’s stock options is estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing model, which uses certain assumptions related to risk-free interest rates, expected volatility, expected life of the stock options or restricted stock, and future dividends. Compensation expense is recorded based upon the value derived from the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing model and based on actual experience. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing model could materially affect compensation expense recorded in future periods.
Advertising costs
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. During the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, advertising costs totaled $78,895 and $103,401, respectively.
Research and Development Costs
Costs incurred for research and development are expensed as incurred. During the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, research and development costs totaled $452,443 and $351,670, respectively and include salaries, benefits, and overhead costs of personnel conducting research and development of the Company’s products.
Net Loss per Share
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Shares used in the calculation of basic net loss per common share include vested but unissued shares underlying awards of restricted common stock. Diluted loss per share reflects the potential dilution, using the treasury stock method that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the loss of the Company. In computing diluted loss per share, the treasury stock method assumes that outstanding warrants and convertible notes are exercised and the proceeds are used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. Warrants and convertible notes may have a dilutive effect under the treasury stock method only when the average market price of the common stock during the period exceeds the exercise price of the options and warrants.
For the year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the dilutive impact of common stock equivalents, e.g. stock options, warrants and convertible notes payable have been excluded from calculation of weighted average shares because their impact on the loss per share is anti-dilutive.
As of December 31, 2020, 4,130,000 options were outstanding of which 2,956,477 were exercisable, no warrants were outstanding and exercisable, and convertible debt and accrued interest totaling $1,499,879 was convertible into 97,064,539 shares of common stock. It should be noted that contractually the limitations on the third-party notes (and the related warrant) limit the number of shares converted to either 4.99% or 9.99% of the then outstanding shares. As of December 31, 2020, and 2019 potentially dilutive securities consisted of the following:
| F-9 |

| Stock options | 4,130,000 | 3,290,000 | ||||||
| Warrants | - | - | ||||||
| Convertible notes payable | 97,064,539 | 889,469 | ||||||
| Total | 101,194,539 | 4,179,469 | ||||||
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company follows the authoritative guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) for fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A fair value hierarchy was established, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value into three broad levels as follows:
Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2—Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly.
Level 3—Unobservable inputs based on the Company’s assumptions.
The Company is required to use of observable market data if such data is available without undue cost and effort.
The Company believes the carrying amount reported in the balance sheet for cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and notes payable, approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments.
As of December 31, 2019, the Company’s balance sheet includes Level 2 liabilities comprised of the fair value of embedded derivative liabilities of $400,139. As of December 31, 2020, the Company did not have any Level 2 liabilities comprised of the fair value of embedded derivative liabilities.
Concentrations of risks
For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, no customer accounted for 10% or more of revenue. As of December 31, 2020, one customer accounted for 100% of accounts receivable. At December 31, 2019, two customers accounted for 19% and 12% of accounts receivable, and no other customer accounted for 10% or more of accounts receivable.
Additionally, for the same periods, no vendor accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s cost of goods sold, or accounts payable at period-end.
The Company maintains the majority of its cash balances with one financial institution, in the form of demand deposits that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or FDIC. At times, deposits held may exceed the amount of insurance provided by the FDIC. The Company has not experienced any losses in its cash and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk.
Segments
The Company operates in one segment for the development and distribution of our CBD products. In accordance with the “Segment Reporting” Topic of the ASC, the Company’s chief operating decision maker has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. Existing guidance, which is based on a management approach to segment reporting, establishes requirements to report selected segment information quarterly and to report annually entity-wide disclosures about products and services, major customers, and the countries in which the entity holds material assets and reports revenue. All material operating units qualify for aggregation under “Segment Reporting” due to their similar customer base and similarities in economic characteristics; nature of products and services; and procurement, manufacturing and distribution processes. Since the Company operates in one segment, all financial information required by “Segment Reporting” can be found in the accompanying financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Credit Losses - Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASC 326”). The standard significantly changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets, including accounts and notes receivables. The standard will replace today’s “incurred loss” approach with an “expected loss” model, under which companies will recognize allowances based on expected rather than incurred losses. Entities will apply the standard’s provisions as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. The standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting this standard on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures.
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. This ASU amends the guidance on convertible instruments and the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity, and also improves and amends the related EPS guidance for both Subtopics. The ASU will be effective for annual reporting periods after December 15, 2021 and interim periods within those annual periods and early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements.
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2 – LICENSE AGREEMENT
Effective January 22, 2019, the Company entered into an agreement with a wholesaler for the exclusive rights to distribute the Company’s products in the state of Colorado for three years. In consideration, the Company received an up-front payment of $100,000. The Company determined that the exclusive distribution agreement was a distinct agreement for the license of symbolic IP and thus should be recognized on a straight-line basis over the three-year life of the agreement. For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized revenue related to the agreement of $33,394, and $31,788, respectively.
NOTE 3 – INVENTORIES
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or net realizable value, and net of reserves, consisted of the following:
| December 31, 2020 | December 31, 2019 | |||||||
| Raw materials and packaging | $ | 16,076 | $ | 102,428 | ||||
| Finished goods | 3,144 | 20,091 | ||||||
| $ | 19,220 | $ | 122,519 | |||||
The Company has recorded a reserve for slow moving and potentially obsolete inventory. The reserve at December 31, 2020 was $9,125. There was no reserve at December 31, 2019.
NOTE 4 - EQUIPMENT
Equipment, stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation consisted of the following:
| December 31, 2020 | December 31, 2019 | |||||||
| Machinery-technology equipment | $ | 704,772 | $ | 607,000 | ||||
| Machinery-technology equipment under construction | 35,969 | 30,000 | ||||||
| 740,741 | 637,000 | |||||||
| Less accumulated depreciation | (540,218 | ) | (323,522 | ) | ||||
| $ | 200,523 | $ | 313,478 | |||||
Depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 was $216,696 and $173,902, respectively. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, machinery-technology equipment included machinery acquired from Arthur G. Mikaelian, Ph.D (see Note 12) initially costing $592,500, with a net book value of $121,389 and $272,602, respectively.
NOTE 5 - OPERATING LEASE
At December 31, 2019, the Company had one operating lease for its headquarters office space in Burbank, California (the “First” lease). At December 31, 2019, the balance of the First lease’s operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and corresponding lease liability were $332,980 and $337,453, respectively.
In February 2020, the Company took possession of a second leased facility consisting of office, research, and production space also located in Burbank, California (the “Second” lease). The Second lease commenced on January 1, 2020, and has a term for 5 years, with annual fixed rental payments ranging from $90,000 to $101,296. The aggregate total fixed rent is approximately $477,822 and resulted in the recognition of an operating lease “ROU” asset and of a corresponding lease liability of $431,402 each. The Company also paid a security deposit of $16,883. At December 31, 2020, the Company did not have any other leases.
During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company consolidated it operations into the Second lease space. In connection with the First lease that is no longer utilized, the Company recorded an impairment of the related net ROU of $255,093, and wrote off a deposit of $16,769 with the lessor. The total due to the lessor for the First lease is $235,759 and is recorded as lease settlement obligation at December 31, 2020.
At December 31, 2020, the balance of the Second lease’s ROU asset and corresponding lease liability were $362,227 and $395,781, respectively.
ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Generally, the implicit rate of interest in arrangements is not readily determinable and the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company’s incremental borrowing rate is a hypothetical rate based on its understanding of what its credit rating would be. The operating lease ROU asset includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives.

| (c) | On May 7, 2020, the Company was granted a loan (the “PPP loan”) from Bank of America in the aggregate amount of $134,125, pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) under the CARES Act. The PPP loan agreement is dated May 4, 2020, matures on May 4, 2022, bears interest at a rate of 1% per annum, with the first six months of interest deferred, is payable monthly commencing on November 2020, and is unsecured and guaranteed by the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”). The loan term may be extended to April 20, 2025, if mutually agreed to by the Company and lender. We applied ASC 470, Debt, to account for the PPP loan. The PPP loan may be prepaid at any time prior to maturity with no prepayment penalties. Funds from the PPP loan may only be used for qualifying expenses as described in the CARES Act, including qualifying payroll costs, qualifying group health care benefits, qualifying rent and debt obligations, and qualifying utilities. The Company intends to use the entire loan amount for qualifying expenses. Under the terms of the PPP, certain amounts of the loan may be forgiven if they are used for qualifying expenses. The Company intends to apply for forgiveness of the PPP loan with respect to these qualifying expenses, however, we cannot assure that such forgiveness of any portion of the PPP loan will occur. As for the potential loan forgiveness, once the PPP loan is, in part or wholly, forgiven and a legal release is received, the liability would be reduced by the amount forgiven and a gain on extinguishment would be recorded. The terms of the PPP loan provide for customary events of default including, among other things, payment defaults, breach of representations and warranties, and insolvency events. The Company was in compliance with the terms of the PPP loan as of December 31, 2020. | |

The Loan contains customary events of default and other provisions customary for a loan of this type. The Company was in compliance with the terms of the EID loan as of December 31, 2020. | |
| (e) | Between July 7, 2020, and July 29, 2020, the Company issued notes payable to third-party investors totaling $250,000. Under the terms of the note, the Company is to pay 50% of the net revenues beginning on August 21, 2020, for a product to be designed and produced by the Company.

(a) |
At December 31, 2019, there was a $282,000 convertible notes with adjustable conversion prices outstanding. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company issued one unsecured convertible promissory note for $153,000, bearing interest at 10% per annum, and maturing in February 2021. Also, during the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company issued two unsecured convertible notes payable for $30,000, bearing interest at 10% per annum, and maturing on December 31, 2020, that were issued as loan commitment fees for notes payable. On September 9, 2020 and September 20, 2020, the Company issued two unsecured convertible promissory notes for $150,200, bearing interest at 10% to 12%, per annum, and maturing in September 2021. At the option of the holder, the notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a price per share discount of 39% to 50% of the average market price of the Company’s common stock, as defined. As a result, the Company determined that the conversion options of the convertible notes were not considered derivatives and qualify as stock settled debt under ASC 480 – “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”. Therefore, the Company calculated fixed premiums totaling $225,685 which were charged to interest expense at the dates of the note issuance. On April 29, 2020, the $282,000 convertible note payable was paid off. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the $153,000 note and related premium of $107,819 was fully converted into common stock. At December 31, 2020, the balance of these convertible notes was $180,200. |
| (b) | At December 31, 2019, the Company had no convertible notes outstanding with fixed conversion prices. During the eight months ended August 31, 2020, the Company issued seven convertible notes with fixed conversion prices aggregating $496,944. The notes are unsecured, bear interest at 10% per annum, and mature through March 31, 2021. The notes were initially convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a fixed conversion price of $0.05 per share. The Company recorded debt discounts and expenses of $531,000 to account for loan fees, beneficial conversion features ($323,000), and original issue discounts ($76,944). The debt discounts are amortized over the life of the notes or are amortized in full upon the conversion of the corresponding notes to common stock. |
| F-14 |
On September 2, 2020, the Company issued a convertible note (see paragraph a above) having a conversion price less than $0.05 which triggered a term common to all notes in paragraph b, which changed the conversion terms to be the lower of $0.05 or 61% of the lowest traded price during the 15 days prior to the conversion. This event is also considered a default for which a penalty is charged equal to 150% of the accrued interest, default interest and principal, totaling $314,441. At December 31, 2020 the new principal totaled $811,385.
On December 9, 2020, the Company executed amendments to these notes effective September 30, 2020, which extended the maturity dates and fixed the conversion price at $0.015. The Company determined that the change in the note terms resulted in old and new debt instruments that were substantially different, with the old debt being extinguished. Due to the change in conversion terms the notes also require the recognition of the beneficial conversion feature of the increased principal ($314,441 default principal) and lowering of the conversion price resulting in recognition of additional charges. Loss on debt extinguishment was charged $757,293 and debt discounts were charged $314,441 with a credit to additional paid in capital for the debt discounts. In addition $243,285 related to the unamortized discounts as originally recorded was also charged to loss on debt extinguishment for the unamortized balance of debt discounts. In addition, loss on debt extinguishment was charged $229,712 for other costs related of the extinguishment.
During the three months ended December 31, 2020, the Company issued nine convertible notes with fixed conversion prices aggregating $440,000. The notes are unsecured, bear interest at 10% per annum, and mature through June 30, 2021. The notes are convertible into common stock at $0.015 per share. The Company recorded debt discounts of $43,000. On December 2, 2020 default penalties of $54,645 were declared by the note holders. The principal balance of these notes totals $494,645 at December 31, 2020. Beneficial conversion features having a value of $451,646 were also recognized with a charge to debt discount offset with a credit to additional paid in capital. The debt discounts are amortized over the life of the notes or are amortized in full upon the conversion of the corresponding notes to common stock. |
At December 31, 2019, the balance of unamortized discount on convertible notes was $225,000. During the year ended December 31, 2020, debt discount of $2,556,602 was recorded, debt discount amortization of $775,538 was recorded, discount of $381,084 was recorded as private placement costs, and $1,085,698 was removed upon debt extinguishment. At December 31, 2020, the balance of the unamortized discount was $539,282.

At December 31, 2020, the Company had no convertible notes outstanding that are considered to have embedded derivative liabilities that require bifurcation per the note agreements.
At December 31, 2019, the derivative liabilities were valued at the following dates using a probability weighted Black-Scholes-Merton model with the following assumptions:
| December 31, 2019 | ||||
| Conversion feature: | ||||
| Risk-free interest rate | 1.77 | % | ||
| Expected volatility | 222 | % | ||
| Expected life (in years) | 1 year | |||
| Expected dividend yield | - | |||
| Fair Value: | ||||
| Conversion feature | $ | 400,139 | ||
| F-15 |
The risk-free interest rate was based on rates established by the Federal Reserve Bank. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The expected life of the conversion feature of the notes was based on the remaining terms of the related notes. The expected dividend yield was based on the fact that the Company has not customarily paid dividends to its common stockholders in the past and does not expect to pay dividends to its common stockholders in the future.
NOTE 9 – INCOME TAXES
The Company had no income tax expense for the years ended December 31, 2020 December 31, 2019. The following is a reconciliation of the statutory federal income tax rate to the Company’s effective tax rate:

The provisions of ASC Topic 740, Accounting for Income Taxes, require an assessment of both positive and negative evidence when determining whether it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets are recoverable. For the year ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, based on all available objective evidence, including the existence of cumulative losses, the Company determined that it was more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets were not fully realizable. Accordingly, the Company established a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets. The Company intends to maintain a full valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets until sufficient positive evidence exists to support reversal of the valuation allowance. During the year ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the valuation allowance increased by $2.3 million and $1.5 million, respectively.
At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had available Federal and state net operating loss carryforwards (“NOL”s) to reduce future taxable income. For Federal purposes the amounts available were approximately $10.1 million and $4.3 million, respectively. For state purposes approximately $8.8 million and $3.1 was available at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The Federal carryforwards expire on various dates through 2040 and the state carryforwards expire through 2037. Due to restrictions imposed by Internal Revenue Code Section 382 regarding substantial changes in ownership of companies with loss carryforwards, the utilization of the Company’s NOL may be limited as a result of changes in stock ownership. NOLs incurred subsequent to the latest change in control are not subject to the limitation.
The Company’s operations are based in California and it is subject to Federal and California state income tax. Tax years after 2015 are open to examination by United States and state tax authorities.
The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 740, which requires companies to determine whether it is “more likely than not” that a tax position will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authorities before any tax benefit can be recorded in the financial statements. ASC 740 also provides guidance on the recognition, measurement, classification and interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions. As of December 31, 2020, and December 31, 2019, no liability for unrecognized tax benefits was required to be recorded or disclosed.

The total fair value of the 8,000,000 shares was determined to be $4,000,000 based on the price per shares of a contemporaneous private placement of the Company’s common stock on the date granted. The Company accounts for the share awards using a graded vesting attribution method over the requisite service period, as if each tranche were a separate award. During the year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, total share-based expense recognized related to vested restricted shares totaled $1,267,720 and $2,317,868, respectively. At December 31, 2020, there was $431,411 of unvested compensation related to these awards that will be amortized over a remaining vesting period of 1.4 years.
The following table summarizes restricted common stock activity for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019:

As of December 31, 2020, no shares have been issued and 4,750,000 vested shares are included in shares to be issued on the accompanying financial statements

Stock Options
During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company issued options exercisable into 3,290,000 shares of common stock. The options initially had an exercise price of $0.23 per share, and this was amended in May 2020 to $0.10 per share. The Company used the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model to estimate the fair value of the modified option grants immediately before and immediately after the modification and determined the change in fair value related to the modification was de minimis.
| F-18 |
During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company issued options exercisable into 900,000 shares of common stock. 600,000 of the options vested immediately, and 300,000 of the options vest over 24 months. The options have an exercise price of $0.10 to $0.14 per share, and expire in ten years. Total fair value of these options at grant date was approximately $85,000 which was determined using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model with the following average assumption: stock price $0.14 per share, expected term ranging from five years, volatility 236%, dividend rate of 0% and risk-free interest rate of 0.17%.
During the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized $290,132 and $711,404, respectively, of compensation expense relating to vested stock options. As of December 31, 2020, the amount of unvested compensation related to stock options was approximately $300,000 which will be recorded as an expense in future periods as the options vest.
The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of measurement corresponding with the expected term of the share option award; the expected term represents the weighted-average period of time that share option awards granted are expected to be outstanding giving consideration to vesting schedules and historical participant exercise behavior; the expected volatility is based upon historical volatility of the Company’s common stock; and the expected dividend yield is based on the fact that the Company has not paid dividends in the past and does not expect to pay dividends in the future.

NOTE 11 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
COVID-19
The global outbreak of COVID-19 has negatively affected the U.S. and global economies and has negatively impacted businesses, workforces, customers, and created significant volatility of financial markets. It has also disrupted the normal operations of many businesses, including ours. The extent of the impact of the pandemic on our business and financial results will depend largely on future developments, including the duration and severity of the outbreak, the length of restrictions and business closures, and the impact on capital and financial markets, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. This outbreak could decrease spending, adversely affect demand for our products and harm our business and results of operations. In the quarters ended June 30, 2020, September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2020, we believe the COVID-19 pandemic did impact our operating results as shipments to customers in the second, third and fourth quarters were down 13%, 10% and 55% respectively from the first quarter of the year. However, we have not observed any material impairments of our assets or a significant change in the fair value of our assets due to the COVID-19 pandemic. While it is not possible at this time to estimate the full impact that COVID-19 will have on our business, restrictions resulting from COVID-19 on general economic conditions could, among other things, impair our ability to raise capital when needed. This situation is changing rapidly, and additional impacts may arise that we are not aware of currently.
Contingencies include lease agreements including the abandoned lease discussed at footnote 3 along with the lease for the headquarters office. In addition, the license agreement as outlined at footnote 2 poses contingent liabilities.
It is management’s opinion that there are not material contingent liabilities that are not disclosed in the financial statements and footnote disclosures as of December 31, 2020.
NOTE 12 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
On December 21, 2020, the Company entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement with Medolife Rx, Inc., a Wyoming corporation, (“Medolife Rx”) pursuant to which, the Company agreed to acquire 51% of Medolife Rx from entities controlled by Arthur G. Mikaelian, Ph.D. in exchange for 9,000 shares of newly created Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. Prior to this transaction, Dr. Mikaelian was a consultant and shareholder in the Company (See Notes 4 and 10). On January 14, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of 51% of Medolife. At December 31, 2020 and through January 14, 2021, Medolife Rx had nominal assets, liabilities, and operations. During December 2021, the Company advanced $235,000 to Medolife Rx in anticipation of the closing of the acquisition transaction. The funds were used to pay certain expenses on behalf of the Company. At December 31, 2020, the balance of the advance was $134,704 and presented as deferred charges-related party. In connection with the acquisition of 51% of Medolife Rx, Dr. Mikaelian was appointed as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company, and also appointed to serve as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, a role which Dr. Mikaelian assumed on January 14, 2021.
The Company has an agreement with Dr. Mikaelian in consideration of the Company’s exclusive use of patented technology developed by Dr. Mikaelian. Pursuant to the agreement, as amended, the Company shall pay a royalty of 25% of all the net income from the sale of licensed products, as defined with a minimum royalty of $35,000 per month payable in cash or common stock of the Company. In addition, the Company agreed to issue 8,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with vesting terms to the individual (see Note 10). During the year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized royalty expenses of $420,000 and $343,300, respectively.
On November 15, 2020, the Company entered into an interim compensation agreement with Mr. Phillip Sands providing for monthly compensation of $8,000 commencing December 1, 2020 until March 1, 2021.
On November 16, 2020, the Company entered into a Control Block Transfer Agreement with Eric Rice and Phillip Sands, pursuant to which, Mr. Rice agreed to transfer 2,500,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Super Voting Preferred Stock to Mr. Sands, representing a transfer of majority voting control over the Company because the holder of such 2,500,000 shares of our Series A Super Voting Preferred Stock automatically carries a vote equal to 51% on all matters submitted to a vote of the holders of our Common Stock and Preferred Stock. Mr. Rice agreed to transfer the Control Block to Phillip Sands in order to consummate the Company’s transition into a holding company (transition phase), without requiring the Company to further dilute its stock through the issuance of new shares.

Approval and Issuance of New Classes of Preferred Stock
The Nevada Secretary of State approved the designations of the Series B and C convertible preferred stock on January 13, 2021

Series B Convertible Preferred Stock
On January 14, 2021, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the issuance of all 9,000 of the 9,000 authorized shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock to Dr Arthur Mikaelian, in exchange for 51% of Medolife Rx (see Note 12). The stock will be valued on the basis of the greater of the assets acquired or the fair value of the Series B convertible preferred shares given in the exchange.
Management has determined that the net asset value of Medolife Rx is not material as of the date of the acquisition of its 51% interest and therefore no valuation is performed. As the acquisition will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, proforma disclosures have not been presented.
