NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Company Overview

Blue Star Foods Corp., a Delaware corporation (“we”, “our”, the “Company”), is an international sustainable marine protein company based in Miami, Florida that imports, packages and sells refrigerated pasteurized crab meat, and other premium seafood products. The Company’s main operating business, John Keeler & Co., Inc. (“Keeler & Co.”) was incorporated in the State of Florida in May 1995. The Company has three other subsidiaries, Coastal Pride, TOBC and AFVFL which maintain the Company’s fresh crab meat, steelhead salmon and packaged seafood and other inventory businesses, respectively. The Company’s current source of revenue is importing blue and red swimming crab meat primarily from South East Asia and distributing it in the United States and Canada under several brand names such as Blue Star, Oceanica, Pacifika, Crab & Go, First Choice, Good Stuff and Coastal Pride Fresh, and steelhead salmon and rainbow trout fingerlings produced under the brand name Little Cedar Farms for distribution in

Canada.

On February 3, 2022, Coastal Pride entered into an asset purchase agreement with Gault Seafood, LLC, a South Carolina limited liability company (“Gault Seafood”), and Robert J. Gault II, President of Gault Seafood (“Gault”) pursuant to which Coastal Pride acquired all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to assets relating to Gault Seafood’s soft-shell crab operations, including intellectual property, equipment, vehicles and other assets used in connection with the soft-shell crab business. Coastal Pride did not assume any liabilities in connection with the acquisition. The purchase price for the assets consisted of a cash payment in the amount of $359,250 and the issuance of 8,355 shares of common stock of the Company with a fair value of $359,250. Such shares were subject to a leak-out agreement pursuant to which Gault Seafood could not sell or otherwise transfer the shares until February 3, 2023.

On February 1, 2024, the Company entered into a ninety-day Master Services Agreement (the “Services Agreement”) with Afritex Ventures, Inc. a Texas corporation (“Afritex”), pursuant to which the Company will be responsible for all of Afritex’s operations and finance functions. The Company will provide Afritex with working capital in order to sustain operations and will purchase certain inventory listed in the Services Agreement. In consideration for its services, during the term of the Services Agreement, the Company will earn all of the revenue and profits by the purchase and sale of Afritex’s inventory. Under the Services Agreement, Afritex may not sell or otherwise use as consideration any of its intellectual property without the Company’s consent. The Company must maintain certain commercial liability insurance during the term of the Services Agreement. The Services Agreement also provides that the Company may not solicit Afritex employees for 24 months nor circumvent existing business relationships of Afritex for three years, after the term of the Services Agreement. The term of the Services Agreement will automatically extend for three thirty-day periods, if Afritex’s outstanding debt is no greater than $325,000. The Company automatically extended the Service Agreement to August 31, 2024 after which it expired. The Company incurred losses of approximately $1.5 million from our Services Agreement with Afritex.

In connection with the Services Agreement, on February 12, 2024, the Company entered into an Intangibles Assets and Machinery Option to Purchase Agreement with Afritex (the “Option Agreement”). Pursuant to the Option Agreement, the Company has the option to purchase Afritex’s intangible assets, machinery and equipment set forth in the Option Agreement for a purchase price of $554,714 for machinery and equipment and 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock were issued on February 12, 2024 to be held in escrow, for intangible assets. The Company did not exercise its option to purchase such intangible assets, machinery and equipment.

In connection with the Services Agreement, on February 1, 2024, AFVFL, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, was incorporated in the State of Florida for the purpose of purchasing raw materials from Afritex for the preparation of packaged seafood and other inventory to be sold to various customers in the United States.

On May 20, 2024, the Company amended its Certificate of Incorporation to affect a one-for-fifty reverse stock split (“Reverse Stock Split”), which became effective the same day. All share and per share amounts have been restated for all periods presented to reflect the Reverse Stock Split.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The following unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, such interim financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for complete annual financial statements. The information furnished reflects all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring items which are, in the opinion of management, necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 has been derived from the Company’s annual financial statements that were audited by our independent registered public accounting firm but does not include all of the information and footnotes required for complete annual financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the SEC on June 23, 2025 for a broader discussion of our business and the risks inherent in such business.

Advances to Suppliers and Related Party

In the normal course of business, the Company may advance payments to its suppliers, including of Bacolod Blue Star Export Corp. (“Bacolod”), a related party based in the Philippines. These advances are in the form of prepayments for products that will ship within a short window of time. In the event that it becomes necessary for the Company to return products or adjust for quality issues, the Company is issued a credit by the vendor in the normal course of business and these credits are also reflected against future shipments.

As of March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the balance due from the related party for future shipments was approximately $1,300,000. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company determined it was appropriate to record an allowance for the full balance due from Bacolod. No new purchases have been made from Bacolod since November 2020. There was no cost of revenue related to inventories purchased from Bacolod recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as such, we record revenue when our customer obtains control of the promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company’s source of revenue is from importing blue and red swimming crab meat primarily from South East Asia and distributing it in the United States and Canada under several brand names such as Blue Star, Oceanica, Pacifika, Crab & Go, First Choice, Good Stuff and Coastal Pride Fresh, and steelhead salmon and rainbow trout fingerlings produced under the brand name Little Cedar Farms for distribution in Canada. We sell primarily to food service distributors. The Company also sells its products to wholesalers, retail establishments and seafood distributors.

To determine revenue recognition for the arrangements that the Company determines are within the scope of Topic 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer by receipt of purchase orders and confirmations sent by the Company which includes a required line of credit approval process, (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract which includes shipment of goods to the customer FOB shipping point or destination, (3) determine the transaction price which initiates with the purchase order received from the customer and confirmation sent by the Company and will include discounts and allowances by customer if any, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract which is the shipment of the goods to the customer and transaction price determined in step 3 above and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation which is when the Company transfers control of the goods to the customers by shipment or delivery of the products.

The Company elected an accounting policy to treat shipping and handling activities as fulfillment activities. Consideration payable to a customer is recorded as a reduction of the arrangement’s transaction price, thereby reducing the amount of revenue recognized, unless the payment is for distinct goods or services received from the customer.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable consist of unsecured obligations due from customers under normal trade terms, usually net 30 days. The Company grants credit to its customers based on the Company’s evaluation of a particular customer’s credit worthiness.

Allowances for credit losses are maintained for potential credit losses based on the age of the accounts receivable and the results of the Company’s periodic credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition. Receivables are written off as uncollectible and deducted from the allowance for doubtful accounts after collection efforts have been deemed to be unsuccessful. Subsequent recoveries are netted against the allowance for credit losses. The Company generally does not charge interest on receivables.

Receivables are net of estimated allowances for doubtful accounts and sales return, allowances and discounts. They are stated at estimated net realizable value. As of March 31, 2025, the Company recorded allowances for sales returns, allowances and discounts of $30,000 and refund liability of $23,500. There was no allowance for bad debt recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2024, the Company recorded sales return, allowances and discounts of $39,000 and refund liability of $57,000. There was no allowance for bad debt recorded for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Inventories

Substantially all of the Company’s inventory consists of packaged crab meat located at a public cold storage facility and merchandise in transit from suppliers. The Company also has eggs and fish in process inventory from TOBC and raw materials for packaged seafood and other inventory from AFVFL. The cost of inventory is primarily determined using the specific identification method for crab meat and raw materials for packaged seafood inventory. Fish in process inventory is measured based on the estimated biomass of fish on hand. The Company has established a standard procedure to estimate the biomass of fish on hand using counting and sampling techniques. Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, cost being determined using the first-in, first-out method for crab meat and raw materials for packaged seafood inventory and using various estimates and assumptions in regard to the calculation of the biomass, including expected yield, market value of the biomass, and estimated costs of completion.

Merchandise is purchased on a cost and freight shipping point basis, and it becomes the Company’s asset and liability upon leaving the suppliers’ warehouse.

The Company periodically reviews the value of items in inventory and records an allowance to reduce the carrying value of inventory to the lower of cost or net realizable value based on its assessment of market conditions, inventory turnover and current stock levels. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company recorded an inventory allowance of $1,398,927. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recorded an inventory allowance in the amount of $1,417,305 which was charged to cost of goods sold.

The Company’s inventory as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 consists of:

Lease Accounting

The Company accounts for its leases under ASC 842, Leases, which requires all leases to be reported on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets and lease obligations. The Company elected the practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance that retained the lease classification and initial direct costs for any leases that existed prior to adoption of the standard.

The Company categorizes leases with contractual terms longer than twelve months as either operating or finance. Finance leases are generally those leases that would allow the Company to substantially utilize or pay for the entire asset over its estimated life. Assets acquired under finance leases are recorded in property and equipment, net. All other leases are categorized as operating leases. The Company did not have any finance leases as of March 31, 2025. The Company’s leases generally have terms that range from three years for equipment and six6 to seven years for real property. The Company elected the accounting policy to include both the lease and non-lease components of its agreements as a single component and accounts for them as a lease.

Lease liabilities are recognized at the present value of the fixed lease payments using a discount rate based on similarly secured borrowings available to us. Lease assets are recognized based on the initial present value of the fixed lease payments, reduced by landlord incentives, plus any direct costs from executing the lease. Lease assets are tested for impairment in the same manner as long-lived assets used in operations. Leasehold improvements are capitalized at cost and amortized over the lesser of their expected useful life or the lease term.

When we have the option to extend the lease term, terminate the lease before the contractual expiration date, or purchase the leased asset, and it is reasonably certain that we will exercise the option, we consider these options in determining the classification and measurement of the lease. Costs associated with operating lease assets are recognized on a straight-line basis within operating expenses over the term of the lease.

Long-lived Assets

Management reviews long-lived assets, including finite-lived intangible assets, for indicators of impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Cash flows expected to be generated by the related assets are estimated over the asset’s useful life on an undiscounted basis. If the evaluation indicates that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable, the potential impairment is measured using fair value. Fair value estimates are completed using a discounted cash flow analysis. Impairment losses for assets to be disposed of, if any, are based on the estimated proceeds to be received, less costs of disposal. No impairment was recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rates Risk

The Company manages its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates through its normal operating activities. Its primary focus is to monitor exposure to, and manage, the economic foreign currency exchange risks faced by, its operations and realized when the Company exchanges one currency for another. The Company’s operations primarily utilize the U.S. dollar and Canadian dollar as its functional currencies. Movements in foreign currency exchange rates affect its financial statements.

Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments

Fair value is defined as the amount that would be received for selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and is measured using inputs in one of the following three categories:

Level 1 measurements are based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access. Valuation of these items does not entail a significant amount of judgment.

Level 2 measurements are based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active or market data other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 measurements are based on unobservable data that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Our financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, debt obligations, derivative liabilities and warrant liabilities. We believe the carrying values of our cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their fair values because they are short term in nature or payable on demand. The derivative liability is the embedded conversion feature on the 2023 Lind convertible note. All derivatives and warrant liabilities are recorded at fair value. The change in fair value for derivatives and warrants liabilities is recognized in earnings. The Company’s derivative and warrant liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using the Black Scholes Pricing model as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. There were no financial assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis under Levels 1 and 2.


	Level 3 Fair Value
	As of March 31, 2025		As of December 31, 2024
Liabilities
Derivative liability on convertible debt	$	35,475	$	49,565
Total	$	35,475	$	49,565

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

ASU 2023-09 – Income Taxes (Topic 740)

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This ASU aims to enhance the transparency and usefulness of income tax disclosures by requiring public business entities to provide more disaggregated information in the effective tax rate reconciliation and for income taxes paid. Key provisions include a requirement for tabular reconciliation using both percentages and amounts, broken out into specific categories, with certain reconciling items at or above a 5% quantitative threshold further disaggregated by nature and/or jurisdiction. Additionally, the ASU requires disclosure of income taxes paid (net of refunds received), disaggregated by federal, state/local, and foreign jurisdictions, and amounts paid to individual jurisdictions that comprise 5% or more of total income taxes paid. The ASU also eliminates certain existing disclosure requirements related to unrecognized tax benefits and cumulative unrecognized deferred tax liabilities. For public business entities, the amendments in ASU 2023-09 are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company does not expect this adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2024-03 – Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40)

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This ASU requires public business entities to disclose more detailed information about certain costs and expenses in the notes to their financial statements, both in annual and interim filings. The objective is to provide investors with greater transparency into a company’s expense structure, enabling a better understanding of performance, assessment of future cash flows, and comparison with other entities. Key provisions include the disaggregation, in a tabular format, of specific natural expense categories such as purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization, within each relevant expense caption on the income statement. The ASU also requires disclosure of the total amount of selling expenses and a qualitative description of expenses remaining in the “other” category. For public business entities, the amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on its financial statements and disclosures.

Note 3. Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company incurred a net loss of $1,199,930, had an accumulated deficit of $47,489,149 and a working capital deficit of $687,321. These factors raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to increase revenues, execute on its business plan to acquire complimentary companies, raise capital, and to continue to sustain adequate working capital to finance its operations. The failure to achieve the necessary levels of profitability and cash flows would be detrimental to the Company. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 4. Other Current Assets

Other current assets totaled $932,810 as of March 31, 2025 and $1,109,494 as of December 31, 2024.

Lind Global Fund II LP notes

2023 Note

On May 30, 2023, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Lind pursuant to which the Company issued to Lind a secured, two-year, interest free convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $1,200,000 (the “2023 Lind Note”) and a warrant (the “Lind Warrant”) to purchase 8,701 shares of common stock of the Company commencing six months after issuance and exercisable for five years at an exercise price of $122.50 per share. The Lind Warrant includes cashless exercise and full ratchet anti-dilution provisions. In connection with the issuance of the Lind Note and the Lind Warrant, the Company paid Lind a $50,000 commitment fee. The proceeds from the sale of the Note and Warrant are for general working capital purposes.

In connection with the issuance of the 2022 Lind Note, the Company and Lind amended the 2022 Security Agreement to include the new 2023 Lind Note, pursuant to an amended and restated security agreement, dated May 30, 2023, between the Company and Lind.

The Company agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission covering the resale of the shares of common stock issuable pursuant to the 2023 Lind Note and Lind Warrant. Lind was also granted piggyback registration rights.

If the Company engages in capital raising transactions, Lind has the right to purchase up to 20% of the new securities for 24 months.

The 2023 Lind Note is convertible into common stock of the Company after the earlier of 90 days from issuance or the date the registration statement is effective, provided that no such conversion may be made that would result in beneficial ownership by Lind and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock. The conversion price of the 2023 Lind Note is equal to the lesser of: (i) $120.00; or (ii) 90% of the lowest single volume-weighted average price during the twenty-trading day period ending on the last trading day immediately preceding the applicable conversion date, subject to customary adjustments. The maximum number of shares of common stock to be issued in connection with the conversion of the 2023 Lind Note and the exercise of the Lind Warrant, in the aggregate, will not, exceed 19.9% of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company immediately prior to the date of the 2023 Lind Note, in accordance with NASDAQ rules and guidance. Due to the variable conversion price of the 2023 Lind Note, the embedded conversion feature was accounted as a derivative liability. The fair value of the derivative liability at issuance amounting to $264,687, was recorded as a debt discount and amortized over the term of the note.

The 2023 Lind Note contains certain negative covenants, including restricting the Company from certain distributions, stock repurchases, borrowing, sale of assets, loans and exchange offers.

Upon the occurrence of an event of default as described in the 2023 Lind Note, the 2023 Lind Note will become immediately due and payable at a default interest rate of 120% of the then outstanding principal amount of the Lind Note.

The Warrant entitles the Investor to purchase up to 8,701 shares of common stock of the Company during the exercise period commencing on the date that is six months after the issue date (“Exercise Period Commencement”) and ending on the date that is sixty months from the Exercise Period Commencement at an exercise price of $122.50 per share, subject to customary adjustments. The Warrant includes cashless exercise and full ratchet anti-dilution provisions.

On July 27, 2023, the Company, entered into a First Amendment to the Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement Amendment”) with Lind, which provided for the issuance of further senior convertible promissory notes up to an aggregate principal amount of up to $1,800,000 and the issuance of additional warrants in such amounts as the Company and Lind shall mutually agree.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement Amendment, the Company issued to Lind a two-year, interest free convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $300,000 and a warrant to purchase 3,505 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $67.00 per share for $250,000. In connection with the issuance of the note and the warrant, the Company paid a $12,500 commitment fee. The proceeds from the sale of the note and warrant are for general working capital purposes.

Due to the variable conversion price of the convertible promissory note, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement Amendment, the embedded conversion feature was accounted for as a derivative liability. The fair value of the derivative liability at issuance amounting to $118,984, was recorded as a debt discount and amortized over the term of the note.

On August 3, 2024 the Company and Lind entered into a waiver and acknowledgement agreement.

The Company and Lind previously entered into that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of May 20, 2023, as amended on July 27, 2023 pursuant to which the Company issued Lind a senior convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $300,000. Each of the Company and Lind acknowledge that the amounts owing under the convertible promissory note as of the filing of the Waiver Agreement is equal to $355,500.

August 2024 Private Placement Offering

In August, 2024, the Company entered into securities purchase agreements (each a “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with each of Quick Capital, LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company (“Quick Capital”) and Jefferson Street Capital, LLC, a New Jersey limited liability company (“Jefferson”) whereby we issued promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $550,000 (the “August Private Placement Offering”).

The Company agreed to issue to Quick Capital and Jefferson up to 39,300 shares of our Common Stock as a “Commitment Fee”.

As part of the August Private Placement Offering, the Company issued two promissory notes each in the principal amount of $275,000 with an original issue discount of $25,000 (the “Private Placement Notes”). The Private Placement Notes have a one-time interest payment of $27,500. Thereafter, any principal amount of interest which is not paid upon maturity will accrue at a rate of the lesser of (i) sixteen percent (16%) per annum, or (ii) the maximum amount permitted by law from the due date thereof until the same is paid. The Private Placement Notes have a maturity date of 10 months after issuance and the proceeds from the notes are for general corporate purposes. The Company agreed to issue to each of Quick Capital and Jefferson 19,650 shares of Common Stock as additional consideration for entering into Private Placement Notes.

The investors have the right, at any time on or following the earlier of (i) the date that any of the shares are registered for resale under a registration statement of the Company or (ii) the date that is six (6) months after the issue date, to convert all or any portion of the then outstanding and unpaid principal and interest into fully paid and non-assessable shares of our Common Stock. The conversion price shall be $1.50, subject to adjustments. We have agreed to reserve a sufficient number of Common Stock (initially, 2,000,000 shares) for issuance upon conversion of the Private Placement Notes in accordance with their terms.

If an event of default occurs under the Private Placement Notes, the investors have the right to convert all amounts outstanding under the notes at any time thereafter into shares of Common Stock at the lesser of (i) the then applicable conversion price under the notes or (ii) the Market Price. “Market Price” shall mean 85% of the lowest VWAP on any trading day during the ten (10) trading days prior to the respective conversion date. “VWAP” means, for any security as of any date, the dollar volume-weighted average price for such security on the principal market during the period beginning at 9:30 a.m., Eastern Standard Time, and ending at 4:00 p.m., Eastern Standard Time, as reported by Quote stream or other similar quotation service provider designated by the investors.

The Company may prepay the Private Placement Notes at any time with fifteen (15) trading days prior written notice (the “Prepayment Notice Period”). During the Prepayment Notice Period, the investor shall have the right to convert all or any portion of the Private Placement Notes pursuant to the terms of the notes, including the amount of the Private Placement Notes to be prepaid. If the Company exercises its right to prepay the notes, the Company shall make payment to the investor of an amount in cash equal to the sum of: (i) 100% multiplied by the principal amount then outstanding plus (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to the Prepayment Notice Date, and (iii) $750 to reimburse the investor for administrative fees.

If the Company delivers a prepayment notice and fails to pay the applicable prepayment amount, the Company shall forever forfeit its right to prepay any part of the Private Placement Notes.

The Private Placement Notes have mandatory monthly payments of $43,200. The initial payments are due on November 9, 2024 and November 12, 2024, respectively.

The Company’s failure to comply with the material terms of the Private Placement Notes will be considered an event of default and the principal sum of the Private Placement Notes will become immediately due and payable at an amount equal to the principal amount then outstanding plus accrued interest (including any default interest) through the date of full repayment multiplied by 135%, as well as all costs, all without demand, presentment or notice, unless expressly waived by the investor.

The investors may assign their rights to any “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a) of the 1933 Act) in a private transaction or to any of its affiliates without the consent of the Company.

While the Private Placement Notes remain outstanding, we shall not, without the investor’s written consent (i) (a) pay, declare or set apart for such payment, any dividend or other distribution on shares of capital stock other than dividends on shares of Common Stock solely in the form of additional shares of Common Stock or (b) directly or indirectly or through any subsidiary make any other payment or distribution with respect to its capital stock except for distributions pursuant to any shareholders’ rights plan which is approved by a majority of the Company’s disinterested directors, (ii) redeem, repurchase or otherwise acquire (whether for cash or in exchange for property or other securities or otherwise) in any one transaction or series of related transactions any shares of capital stock of the Company or any warrants, rights or options to purchase or acquire any such shares, or repay any indebtedness of the investor (iii) advance any loans made in the ordinary course of business in excess of $100,000, (iv) sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any significant portion of our assets outside the ordinary course of business, and (v) enter into any transaction or arrangement structured in accordance with, based upon, or related or pursuant to, in whole or in part, either Section 3(a)(9) or Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act.

In conjunction with the August Private Placement Offering, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement with each of Quick Capital and Jefferson. The Company agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register the re-sale of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock covered in the August Private Placement Offering within sixty (60) calendar days from the date of execution.

● inadequate control over the monitoring of inventory maintained in the Company’s third-party warehouse;

● ineffective controls over the Company’s financial close and reporting process; and

● inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives, including lack of personnel resources and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function of the Company.

Management’s Remediation Initiatives

In an effort to remediate the identified material weaknesses and other deficiencies and enhance our internal controls, we plan to further initiate, the following measures, subject to the availability of required resources:

● We plan to create a position to segregate duties consistent with control objectives and hire personnel resources with technical accounting expertise within the accounting function; and

● We plan to create an internal control framework that will address financial close and reporting process, among other procedures.
