OFFERING CIRCULAR
Software Effective Solutions Corp.
150,000,000 Shares of Common Stock
This Post-Qualification Offering Circular Amendment No. 1 (the “Offering Circular”) amends the Offering Statement on Form 1-A of Software Effective Solutions, Inc., a Louisiana corporation, as qualified on March 20, 2024, and as may be amended and supplemented from time to time, to: (a) add 25,000,000 additional Offered Shares of common stock to be offered pursuant to this Offering Circular, for a revised maximum of 150,000,000 Offered Shares; and (b) revise the offering price of the Offered Shares to $0.03 per share.
By this Offering Circular, Software Effective Solutions Corp., a Louisiana corporation, is offering for sale a maximum of 150,000,000 shares of its common stock (the Offered Shares), at a fixed price of $0.03 per share, pursuant to Tier 1 of Regulation A of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). A minimum purchase of $5,000 of the Offered Shares is required in this offering; any additional purchase must be in an amount of at least $1,000. This offering is being conducted on a best-efforts basis, which means that there is no minimum number of Offered Shares that must be sold by us for this offering to close; thus, we may receive no or minimal proceeds from this offering. All proceeds from this offering will become immediately available to us and may be used as they are accepted. Purchasers of the Offered Shares will not be entitled to a refund and could lose their entire investments.
Upon qualification of this offering by the SEC, a total of $125,000 of principal amount convertible notes (the “Subject Convertible Notes”) will, by their terms, be eligible for conversion into Offered Shares (the Offered Shares issued upon conversion of the Subject Convertible Notes are referred to as the “Conversion Shares”), at the election of their holder, at the offering price for all of the Offered Shares, $0.03 per share. (See “Use of Proceeds” and “Plan of Distribution”).
Please see the “Risk Factors” section, beginning on page 4, for a discussion of the risks associated with a purchase of the Offered Shares.
We estimate that this offering will commence within two days of the SEC’s qualification of the Offering Statement of which this Offering Circular forms a part; this offering will terminate at the earliest of (a) the date on which the maximum offering has been sold, (b) the date which is one year from this offering being qualified by the SEC or (c) the date on which this offering is earlier terminated by us, in our sole discretion. (See “Plan of Distribution”).

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
The information contained in this Offering Circular includes some statements that are not historical and that are considered forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our development plans for our business; our strategies and business outlook; anticipated development of our company; and various other matters (including contingent liabilities and obligations and changes in accounting policies, standards and interpretations). These forward-looking statements express our expectations, hopes, beliefs and intentions regarding the future. In addition, without limiting the foregoing, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. The words anticipates, believes, continue, could, estimates, expects, intends, may, might, plans, possible, potential, predicts, projects, seeks, should, will, would and similar expressions and variations, or comparable terminology, or the negatives of any of the foregoing, may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.
The forward-looking statements contained in this Offering Circular are based on current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments that are difficult to predict. We cannot guarantee future performance, or that future developments affecting our company will be as currently anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.
All forward-looking statements attributable to us are expressly qualified in their entirety by these risks and uncertainties. These risks and uncertainties, along with others, are also described below in the Risk Factors section. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements and should not make an investment decision based solely on these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.
The following summary highlights material information contained in this Offering Circular. This summary does not contain all of the information you should consider before purchasing our common stock. Before making an investment decision, you should read this Offering Circular carefully, including the Risk Factors section and the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto. Unless otherwise indicated, the terms we, us and our refer and relate to Software Effective Solutions Corp., a Louisiana corporation, including its subsidiaries.
Our Company
Software Effective Solutions Corp is a Louisiana corporation originally incorporated in 1999. On October 25, 2021, our company acquired MedCana, Inc., a Nevada corporation, pursuant to an agreement and plan of exchange. MedCana, Inc. (Nevada) owns assets in Nevada, and also in the country of Columbia. The Nevada assets are computer software and hardware, and also databases and webservers hosted in the United States. The Columbian assets are 5 businesses; each business owns 3 Colombian (federally issued) territorial-based licenses that permit cultivation and food/pharmaceutical processing of cannabis, for a total of 15 licenses. The licenses are legal permits that have monetary value. The value is based on two criteria: 1) the actual cost of owning the license (and also based on the purchase price of the licenses itself), and 2) the license grants the usage of land specified within the contract license, which is worth of the future farm yields (crop yields) that have a market value at the time of harvesting and reselling the crop.
TOKAN Corporation sold its software and hardware assets and Intellectual Property assets to the Company for 63,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company. The agreement was made on August 15, 2021. This constitutes approximately 63% of the total issued and outstanding common shares. The software and hardware, and Intellectual Property assets are the most important assets for the Company because it will persist and be constantly upgraded to the most modern technology, and compete with other software/hardware systems.
MedCana, Inc.’s Columbian assets, which shall be used to supplement the Company’s software, include 5 businesses, located in the country of Colombia. Each of these 5 businesses hold (own) 3 Colombian (federally issued) territorial-based licenses that permit cultivation and food/pharmaceutical processing of cannabis. The total number of licenses is 15 (fifteen) altogether.
The licenses are legal permits that have monetary value. The value is based on two criteria: 1) the actual cost of owning the license (and also based on the purchase price of the licenses itself), and 2) the license grants the usage of land specified within the contract license, which is worth of the future farm yields (crop yields) that have a market value at the time of harvesting and reselling the crop.

Medcana also owns a 60% stake in Eko2o S.A.S, a company that sells and services agricultural technology solutions, irrigation systems, sensors and monitoring systems, and green houses. (See “Business”).

An investment in the Offered Shares involves substantial risks. You should carefully consider the following risk factors, in addition to the other information contained in this Offering Circular, before purchasing any of the Offered Shares. The occurrence of any of the following risks might cause you to lose a significant part of your investment. The risks and uncertainties discussed below are not the only ones we face, but do represent those risks and uncertainties that we believe are most significant to our business, operating results, prospects and financial condition. Some statements in this Offering Circular, including statements in the following risk factors, constitute forward-looking statements. (See “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements”).
Risks Related to Our Company
For a significant period of time prior to 2021, we identified ourselves as a “shell company,” as defined by Rule 405 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Due to our prior “shell company” status and the fact that we are a development-stage business, there is no assurance that we will ever generate significant revenues from our business operations or that we will ever earn a profit. Further, any losses reported by us in the future could cause the quoted price of our common stock to decline or have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, our ability to pay our debts as they become due, and on our cash flows.
We do not have a successful operating history. Until 2021, we had not engaged in active business operations for several years, which makes an investment in the Offered Shares highly speculative in nature. Because of our lack of operating success, it is difficult to forecast our future operating results. Additionally, our operations will be subject to risks inherent in the implementation of new business strategies, including, among other factors, efficiently deploying our capital, developing and implementing our marketing campaigns and strategies and developing greater awareness. Our performance and business prospects will suffer if we are unable to overcome the following challenges, among others:
·our dependence upon external sources for the financing of our operations, particularly given that there are concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern;
·our ability to execute our business strategies;
·our ability to manage our expansion, growth and operating expenses;
·our ability to finance our business;
·our ability to compete and succeed in a competitive industry; and
·future geopolitical events and economic crisis.
We are an early-stage company with limited operating history and may never become profitable. The Company owns MedCana, Inc., an early-stage company focused on cultivating, processing and supplying natural, medicinal-grade cannabis oil and high-quality cannabis derived medical and wellbeing products to large channel distributors, formed in September 21. 2021, and have limited operating history. Medcana, Inc. has only started to test growth and harvest of commercial cannabis crops and has not yet produced oil extracts, and we will require time to maximize production and refine operating procedures. Further, until our Research Technology and Processing Center has been constructed and becomes operational, we will not have sufficient infrastructure as a processor nor have the ability to extract CBD oil in any material amounts. We are currently in discussions with distributors with whom we intend to engage although no definitive agreements have been signed until the import requirements are met with local jurisdictions. We have limited financial resources and minimal operating cash flow. In addition, we do not currently have significant revenues: for the three months ended March 31, 2024, we had a net loss of $386,021 (unaudited) and for the year ended December 31, 2023, had a net loss of $(1,653,370) (unaudited).
Additionally, there can be no assurance that additional funding will be available to us for the development of our business, which will require the commitment of substantial resources. Accordingly, you should consider our prospects in light of the costs, uncertainties, delays and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in the early stages of development. Potential investors should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties that a company with a limited operating history will face. Potential investors should consider that we may be unable to:
·successfully implement or execute our business plan, or that our business plan is sound;
·adjust to changing conditions or keep pace with increased demand;
·attract and retain an experienced management team; or
·raise sufficient funds in the capital markets to effectuate our business plan, including product development, licensing and approvals.
4
We may be unable to obtain sufficient capital to implement our full plan of business. Currently, we do not have sufficient financial resources with which to establish our business strategies. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain sources of financing, including in this offering, in order to satisfy our working capital needs.
There are risks and uncertainties encountered by under-capitalized companies. As an under-capitalized company, we are unable to offer assurance that we will be able to overcome our lack of capital, among other challenges.
Our financial statements are not independently audited, which could result in errors and/or omissions in our financial statements if proper standards are not applied. We are not required to have our financial statements audited by a firm that is certified by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”). As such, we do not have a third party reviewing the accounting. We may also not be up to date with all publications and releases released by the PCAOB regarding accounting standards and treatments. This circumstance could mean that our unaudited financials may not properly reflect up to date standards and treatments, resulting in misstated financial statements.
In the past, we have not filed our periodic reports in a timely manner. For several years prior to 2021, our company did not timely file all required periodic reports with the OTC Markets. Since September 2021, we have filed all required periodic reports with OTC Markets and our management intends to remain in compliance our filing obligations in the future. However, there is no assurance that we will be successful in this regard.
Should we fail to remain current in our filing obligations, investors in our common stock would be deprived of important current information concerning our company upon which to evaluate their investments, including, without limitation:
·our financial condition and operating results;
·our ongoing and anticipated future business operations and plans;
·changes to our management personnel;
·changes to our capital structure, including changes to shareholder voting rights; and
·transactions between our company and our affiliates.
In addition, should we fail to remain current in our filing obligations, investors in our common stock could experience significant diminution in the value of their shares. This loss of value could be experienced in a number of ways, which include:
·A loss of market liquidity for our common stock due to being designated a “limited information” company by OTC Markets, as indicated by a “YIELD” or “STOP” sign on OTCMarkets.com, or being relegated to the “Expert Market” by OTC Markets.
·An inability of an investor in our common stock to sell such investor’s shares through a brokerage account, due to our company’s having been designated a “limited information” company by OTC Markets.
In these or similar circumstances, an investor in our common stock could lose such investor’s entire investment.
If we are unable to manage future expansion effectively, our business may be adversely impacted. In the future, we may experience rapid growth in our operations, which could place a significant strain on our company’s infrastructure, in general, and our internal controls and other managerial, operating and financial resources, in particular. If we are unable to manage future expansion effectively, our business would be harmed. There is, of course, no assurance that we will enjoy rapid development in our business.
We currently depend on the efforts of our Chief Executive Officer; the loss of this executive could disrupt our operations and adversely affect the further development of our business. Our success in establishing implementing our real estate business strategies will depend, primarily, on the continued service of our Chief Executive Officer, Jose Gabriel Díaz. The loss of service of Mr. Díaz, for any reason, could seriously impair our ability to execute our business plan, which could have a materially adverse effect on our business and future results of operations. We have not entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Díaz. We have not purchased any key-man life insurance.
If we are unable to recruit and retain key personnel, our business may be harmed. If we are unable to attract and retain key personnel, our business may be harmed. Our failure to enable the effective transfer of knowledge and facilitate smooth transitions with regard to our key employees could adversely affect our long-term strategic planning and execution.
Our business plan depends on marketing of our products, which may not be accepted in the marketplace. Our industry is extremely competitive and we have yet to attain any market share. In order to achieve successful operations, we will depend on effective marketing to, first, gain entry into the industry and, then, to achieve market share. We do not employ a marketing agency. Employing a greater number of marketing personnel or a marketing agency would require greater financial resources than we currently possess. Furthermore, our ability to attract independent sales representatives may be limited without greater name recognition, an advertising campaign and market penetration. Unless we are able to address these limitations in our marketing capabilities, you may expect our
5
revenues to be limited and we may have difficulty staying in business. Under such circumstances, our stock cannot be expected to gain in value.
We are an early-stage company with an unproven business model and our business may not become profitable. We are an early-stage company with a limited operating history upon which you can evaluate our business. We have very limited historical financial data. As a result of these factors, the revenue and income potential of our business is unproven, and we have only a limited operating history upon which to base an evaluation of our current business and future prospects. Because of our limited operating history, we have limited insight into trends that may emerge and affect our business. We may make errors in predicting and reacting to relevant business trends, which could harm our business. Early-stage companies in new and rapidly evolving markets such as ours frequently encounter risks, uncertainties, and difficulties, including those described in this section. We may not be able to successfully address any or all of these risks. Failure to adequately address such risks could cause our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects to suffer.
Our financial condition could be adversely affected if our available liquidity is insufficient. If our business is significantly adversely affected by further deterioration in the economic environment or otherwise, it could lead us to seek new or additional sources of liquidity to fund our needs. Currently, for a non-investment-grade company such as ours, the capital markets are challenging, with limited available financing and at higher costs than in recent years. There can be no guarantees that we would be able to access any new sources of liquidity on commercially reasonable terms or at all.
We may lose or fail to attract and retain key employees and management personnel. As we expand our operations, our employees will be extremely important assets. An important aspect of our competitiveness will be our ability to attract and retain key employees and management personnel. Our ability to do so is influenced by a variety of factors, including the compensation we award, and could be adversely affected by our financial or market performance.
We currently have limited management and staff, which could limit our ability to effectively seize market opportunities and grow our business. Our operations are subject to all of the risks inherent in a growing business enterprise, including the likelihood of operating losses. As a smaller company with a limited operating history, our success will depend, among other factors, upon how we manage the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays frequently encountered in connection with the growth of a new business, products and channels of distribution, and current and future development. In addition, as a company with a limited operating history and limited management and staff to grow our business and manage the risks inherent in a growing business enterprise, these factors could limit our ability to effectively seize market opportunities and grow.
Our ability to grow our business may depend on developing a positive brand reputation. Establishing and maintaining a positive brand reputation is critical to attracting new customers. If we are unable to establish, maintain and enhance our brand reputation and customer satisfaction, our ability to attract new customers will be harmed.
Investors may lose their entire investment if we fail to reach profitability. We have no demonstrable operations record from which you can evaluate the business and its prospects. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, uncertainties, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of development. We cannot guarantee that we will be successful in accomplishing our objectives. To date, we have incurred losses and will continue to do so in the foreseeable future. Investors should therefore be aware that they may lose their entire investment in the securities.
Litigation or legal proceedings could expose us to significant liabilities and damage our reputation. We may become party to litigation claims and legal proceedings. Litigation involves significant risks, uncertainties and costs, including distracting of management’s attention away from our current business operations. We evaluate litigation claims and legal proceedings to assess the likelihood of unfavorable outcomes and to estimate, if possible, the amount of potential losses. Based on these assessments and estimates, we establish reserves and/or disclose the relevant litigation claims or legal proceedings, as appropriate. These assessments and estimates are based on the information available to management at the time and involve a significant amount of management judgment. We caution you that actual outcomes or losses may differ materially from those envisioned by our current assessments and estimates. Our policies and procedures require strict compliance by our employees and agents with all United States and local laws and regulations applicable to our business operations, including those prohibiting improper payments to government officials. Nonetheless, there can be no assurance that our policies and procedures will always ensure full compliance by our employees and agents with all applicable legal requirements. Improper conduct by our employees or agents could damage our reputation in the United States and internationally or lead to litigation or legal proceedings that could result in civil or criminal penalties, including substantial monetary fines, as well as disgorgement of profits.
If we do not effectively manage changes in our business, these changes could place a significant strain on our management and operations. To manage our growth successfully, we must continue to improve and expand our systems and infrastructure in a timely and efficient manner. Our controls, systems, procedures and resources may not be adequate to support a changing and growing company. If our management fails to respond effectively to changes and growth in our business, including acquisitions, this could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects.
6
Our operating expenses could increase without a corresponding increase in revenues. Our operating and other expenses could increase without a corresponding increase in revenues, which could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial results and on an investment in the Offered Shares. Factors which could increase operating and other expenses include, but are not limited to (1) increases in the rate of inflation, (2) increases in taxes and other statutory charges, (3) changes in laws, regulations or government policies which increase the costs of compliance with such laws, regulations or policies, (4) significant increases in insurance premiums, and (5) increases in borrowing costs.
Our lack of adequate directors and officers liability insurance may also make it difficult for us to retain and attract talented and skilled directors and officers. In the future, we may be subject to litigation, including potential class action and shareholder derivative actions. Risks associated with legal liability are difficult to assess and quantify, and their existence and magnitude can remain unknown for significant periods of time. To date, we have not obtained directors and officers liability (“D&O”) insurance. Without adequate D&O insurance, the amounts we would pay to indemnify our officers and directors, should they be subject to legal action based on their service to our company, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity. Further, our lack of adequate D&O insurance may make it difficult for us to retain and attract talented and skilled directors and officers, which could adversely affect our business.
Our Board of Directors may change our policies without shareholder approval. Our policies, including any policies with respect to investments, leverage, financing, growth, debt and capitalization, will be determined by our Board of Directors or officers to whom our Board of Directors delegates such authority. Our Board of Directors will also establish the amount of any dividends or other distributions that we may pay to our shareholders. Our Board of Directors or officers to which such decisions are delegated will have the ability to amend or revise these and our other policies at any time without shareholder vote. Accordingly, our shareholders will not be entitled to approve changes in our policies, which policy changes may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
Risks Related to Our Business and Industry
Recent and future acquisitions and strategic investments could be difficult to integrate, divert the attention of key management personnel, disrupt our business, dilute shareholder value, and harm our results of operations and financial condition. We have recently acquired the business, MedCana, Inc., and we may in the future seek to acquire or invest in, businesses, products, or technologies that we believe could complement our operations or expand our breadth, enhance our capabilities, or otherwise offer growth opportunities. Our diversity of product offerings may not be successful. While our growth strategy includes broadening our service and product offerings, implementing an aggressive marketing plan and employing product diversification, there can be no assurance that our systems, procedures and controls will be adequate to support our operations as they expand. We cannot assure you that our existing personnel, systems, procedures or controls will be adequate to support our operations in the future or that we will be able to successfully implement appropriate measures consistent with our growth strategy. As part of our planned growth and diversified product offerings, we may have to implement new operational and financial systems, procedures and controls to expand, train and manage our employee base, and maintain close coordination among our staff. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so, or that if we are able to do so, we will be able to effectively integrate them into our existing staff and systems. Additionally, the integration of our acquisitions and pursuit of potential future acquisitions may divert the attention of management and cause us to incur various expenses in identifying, investigating, and pursuing suitable acquisitions, whether or not they are consummated. Any acquisition, investment or business relationship may result in unforeseen operating difficulties and expenditures. In addition, we have limited experience in acquiring other businesses. Specifically, we may not successfully evaluate or utilize the acquired products, assets or personnel, or accurately forecast the financial impact of an acquisition transaction, including accounting charges. Moreover, the anticipated benefits of any acquisition, investment, or business relationship may not be realized, or we may be exposed to unknown risks or liabilities of our acquisitions.
We may not be able to find and identify desirable acquisition targets or we may not be successful in entering into an agreement with any one target. Acquisitions could also result in dilutive issuances of equity securities or the incurrence of debt, which could harm our results of operations. In addition, if an acquired business fails to meet our expectations, our business, results of operations, and financial condition may suffer. In some cases, minority shareholders may exist in certain of our non-wholly-owned acquisitions (for businesses we do not purchase as an 100% owned subsidiary) and may retain minority shareholder rights which could make a future change of control or corporate approvals for actions more difficult to achieve and/or more costly.
We also make strategic investments in early-stage companies developing products or technologies that we believe could complement our business or expand our breadth, enhance our technical capabilities, or otherwise offer growth opportunities. These investments may be in early-stage private companies for restricted stock. Such investments are generally illiquid and may never generate value. Further, the companies in which we invest may not succeed, and our investments would lose their value.
Cannabis laws, regulations, and guidelines are dynamic and subject to changes. Cannabis laws and regulations are dynamic and subject to evolving interpretations which could require us to incur substantial costs associated with compliance or alter certain aspects of our business plan. It is also possible that regulations may be enacted in the future that will be directly applicable to certain
7
aspects of our businesses. We cannot predict the nature of any future laws, regulations, interpretations or applications, nor can we determine what effect additional governmental regulations or administrative policies and procedures, when and if promulgated, could have on our business. Management expects that the legislative and regulatory environment in the cannabis industry in Colombia and internationally will continue to be dynamic and will require innovative solutions to try to comply with this changing legal landscape in this nascent industry for the foreseeable future. Compliance with any such legislation may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Public opinion can also exert a significant influence over the regulation of the cannabis industry. A negative shift in the public’s perception of the cannabis industry could affect future legislation or regulation in different jurisdictions.
Demand for cannabis and derivative products could be adversely affected and significantly influenced by scientific research or findings, regulatory proceedings, litigation, media attention or other research findings. The legal cannabis industry in Colombia is at an early stage of its development. Consumer perceptions regarding legality, morality, consumption, safety, efficacy and quality of medicinal cannabis are mixed and evolving and can be significantly influenced by scientific research or findings, regulatory investigations, litigation, media attention and other publicity regarding the consumption of medicinal cannabis products. There can be no assurance that future scientific research, findings, regulatory proceedings, litigation, media attention or other research findings or publicity will be favorable to the medicinal cannabis market or any particular product, or consistent with earlier publicity. Future research reports, findings, regulatory proceedings, litigation, media attention or other publicity that are perceived as less favorable than, or that question, earlier research reports, findings or publicity, could have a material adverse effect on the demand for medicinal cannabis and on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. Further, adverse publicity reports or other media attention regarding cannabis in general or associating the consumption of medicinal cannabis with illness or other negative effects or events, could have such a material adverse effect. Public opinion and support for medicinal cannabis use has traditionally been inconsistent and varies from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Our ability to gain and increase market acceptance of our business may require substantial expenditures on investor relations, strategic relationships and marketing initiatives. There can be no assurance that such initiatives will be successful and their failure to materialize into significant demand may have an adverse effect on our financial condition.
Damage to the Company’s reputation can be the result of the actual or perceived occurrence of any number of events, and could include any negative publicity, whether such publicity is accurate or not. The increased usage of social media and other web-based tools used to generate, publish and discuss user-generated content and to connect with other users has made it increasingly easier for individuals and groups to communicate and share opinions and views regarding the Company and its activities, whether true or not. Although the Company believes that it operates in a manner that is respectful to all stakeholders and that it takes pride in protecting its image and reputation, it does not ultimately have direct control over how it is perceived by others. Reputational loss may result in decreased ability to enter into new customer, distributor or supplier relationships, retain existing customers, distributors or suppliers, reduced investor confidence and access to capital, increased challenges in developing and maintaining community relations and an impediment to our overall ability to advance our projects, thereby having a material adverse effect on our financial performance, financial condition, cash flows and growth prospects.
We are subject to the inherent risk of exposure to product liability claims, actions and litigation. As a distributor of products designed to be ingested by humans, we face an inherent risk of exposure to product liability claims, regulatory action and litigation if our products are alleged to have caused bodily harm or injury. In addition, the sale of our products involves the risk of injury to consumers due to tampering by unauthorized third parties or product contamination. Adverse reactions resulting from human consumption of our products alone or in combination with other medications or substances could occur. We may be subject to various product liability claims, including, among others, that our products caused injury or illness, include inadequate instructions for use or include inadequate warnings concerning health risks, possible side effects or interactions with other substances. Product liability claims or regulatory actions against us could result in increased costs, could adversely affect our reputation with our clients and consumers generally, and could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. There can be no assurances that we will be able to obtain or maintain product liability insurance on acceptable terms or with adequate coverage against potential liabilities. Such insurance is expensive and may not be available in the future on acceptable terms, or at all. The inability to obtain sufficient insurance coverage on reasonable terms or to otherwise protect against potential product liability claims could prevent or inhibit the commercialization of our potential products.
We are subject to the inherent risks involved with product recalls. Manufacturers and distributors of products are sometimes subject to the recall or return of their products for a variety of reasons, including product defects, such as contamination, unintended harmful side effects or interactions with other substances, packaging safety and inadequate or inaccurate labelling disclosure. If any of our products are recalled due to an alleged product defect or for any other reason, we could be required to incur the unexpected expense of the recall and any legal proceedings that might arise in connection with the recall. We may lose a significant amount of sales and may not be able to replace those sales at an acceptable margin, or at all. In addition, a product recall may require significant management attention. There can be no assurance that any quality, potency or contamination problems will be detected in time to avoid unforeseen product recalls, regulatory action or lawsuits. Additionally, if our products are subject to recall, our reputation could be harmed. A recall for any of the foregoing reasons could lead to decreased demand for our products and could have a material adverse effect on our results
8
of operations and financial condition. Additionally, product recalls may lead to increased scrutiny of our operations by regulatory agencies, requiring further management attention, potential loss of applicable licenses, and potential legal fees and other expenses.
The Company’s products could have unknown side effects. If the products the Company sells are not perceived to have the effects intended by the end user, its business may suffer and the business may be subject to products liability or other legal actions. Many of the Company’s products contain innovative ingredients or combinations of ingredients. There is little long-term data available with respect to efficacy, unknown side effects and/or interaction with individual human biochemistry, or interaction with other drugs. Moreover, there is little long-term data available with respect to efficacy, unknown side effects and/or its interaction with individual animal biochemistry. As a result, the Company’s products could have certain side effects if not taken as directed or if taken by an end user that has certain known or unknown medical conditions.
The Company may be unable to anticipate changes in its potential client requirements that could make the Company’s existing products and services obsolete. The Company’s success will depend, in part, on its ability to continue to enhance its product and service offerings so as to address the increasing sophistication and varied needs of the market and respond to technological and regulatory changes and emerging industry standards and practices on a timely and cost-effective basis.
Research regarding the medical benefits, viability, safety, efficacy, use and social acceptance of cannabis or isolated cannabinoids (such as CBD and THC) remains in early stages. There have been relatively few clinical trials on the benefits of cannabis or isolated cannabinoids (such as CBD and THC). Although the Company believes that the articles, reports and studies support its beliefs regarding the medical benefits, viability, safety, efficacy, dosing and social acceptance of cannabis, future research and clinical trials may prove such statements to be incorrect, or could raise concerns regarding, and perceptions relating to, cannabis. Given these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, investors should not place undue reliance on such articles and reports. Future research studies and clinical trials may draw opposing conclusions to those stated herein or reach negative conclusions related to medical cannabis, which could have a material adverse effect on the demand for the Company’s products, which could result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations or prospects.
The Company’s inventory has a shelf life and may reach its expiration and not be sold. The Company holds finished goods in inventory and its inventory has a shelf life. Finished goods in the Company’s inventory may include cannabis flower, cannabis oil products and cosmeceutical. The Company’s inventory may reach its expiration and not be sold. Although management regularly reviews the quantity and remaining shelf life of inventory on hand, and estimates manufacturing and sales lead times in order to manage its inventory, write-downs of inventory may still be required. Any such write-down of inventory could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations.
The seasonal trends in our business create variability in our financial and operating results. Our financial and operating results are subject to seasonal and quarterly variations in our net revenue and operating income and, as a result, our quarterly results may fluctuate and could be below expectations.
Our business has realized a disproportionate amount of our net revenue and earnings for prior fiscal years in the third and fourth quarter as a result of the holiday season, and we expect this seasonal impact on our operations to continue in the future. If we experience lower than expected net revenue during any third or fourth quarter, it may have disproportionately large effects on our operating results and financial condition for that year. Any factors that harm our third or fourth quarter operating results, including disruptions in our brands or our supply chains or unfavourable economic conditions, could have a disproportionate effect on our results of operations and our financial condition for our entire fiscal year.
The Company may not be able to maintain effective quality control systems. The Company may not be able to maintain an effective quality control system. The Company ascribes its early successes, in part, on its commitment to product quality and its effective quality control system. The effectiveness of the Company’s quality control system and its ability to obtain or maintain GMP certification with respect to its manufacturing, processing, and testing facilities depend on a number of factors, including the design of its quality control procedures, training programs, and its ability to ensure that its employees adhere to the Company’s policies and procedures. The Company also depends on service providers such as toll manufacturers and contract laboratories to manufacture, process or test its products, that are subject to GMP certification requirements.
We expect that regulatory agencies will periodically inspect our and our service providers’ facilities to evaluate compliance with applicable GMP requirements. Failure to comply with these requirements may subject us or our service providers to possible regulatory enforcement actions. Any failure or deterioration of the Company’s or its service providers’ quality control systems, including loss of GMP certification, may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

Energy prices and supply may be subject to change or curtailment due to new laws or regulations, imposition of new taxes or tariffs, interruptions in production by suppliers, imposition of restrictions on energy supply by government, worldwide price levels and market conditions. The Company requires diesel and electric energy and other resources for its cultivation and harvest activities and for transportation of cannabis. The Company relies upon third parties for its supply of energy resources used in its operations. The prices for and availability of energy resources may be subject to change or curtailment, respectively, due to, among other things, new laws or regulations, imposition of new taxes or tariffs, interruptions in production by suppliers, imposition of restrictions on energy supply by government, worldwide price levels and market conditions. Although the Company attempts to mitigate the effects of fuel shortages, electricity outages and cost increases, the Company’s operations will continue to depend on external suppliers of fuel and electricity. If energy supply is cut for an extended period and the Company is unable to find replacement sources at comparable prices, or at all, the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
The cannabinoid industry faces strong opposition and may face similar opposition in other jurisdictions in which we operate. Many political and social organizations oppose hemp and cannabis and their legalization, and many people, even those who support legalization, oppose the sale of hemp and cannabis in their geographies. Our business will need support from local governments, industry participants, consumers and residents to be successful. Additionally, there are large, well-funded businesses that may have a strong opposition to the cannabis industry. For example, the pharmaceutical and alcohol industries have traditionally opposed cannabis legalization. Any efforts by these or other industries opposed to cannabis would make in halting or impeding the cannabis industry could have detrimental effects on our business.
We are subject to the risks inherent in an agricultural business. Our business involves the growing of cannabis, which is an agricultural product. The occurrence of severe adverse weather conditions, especially droughts, fires, storms or floods is unpredictable and may have a potentially devastating impact on agricultural production and may otherwise adversely affect the supply of cannabis. Adverse weather conditions may be exacerbated by the effects of climate change and may result in the introduction and increased frequency of pests and diseases. The effects of severe adverse weather conditions may reduce our yields or require us to increase our level of investment to maintain yields. Additionally, higher than average temperatures and rainfall can contribute to an increased presence of insects and pests, which could negatively affect cannabis crops. Future droughts could reduce the yield and quality of our cannabis production, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The occurrence and effects of plant disease, insects and pests can be unpredictable and devastating to agricultural production, potentially rendering all or a substantial portion of the affected harvests unsuitable for sale. Even when only a portion of the production is damaged, our results of operations could be adversely affected because all or a substantial portion of the production costs may have been incurred. Although some plant diseases are treatable, the cost of treatment can be high and such events could adversely affect our operating results and financial condition. Furthermore, if we fail to control a given plant disease and the production is threatened, we may be unable to adequately supply our customers, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. There can be no assurance that natural elements will not have a material adverse effect on production.
Our operations could be materially and adversely affected if the supply of cannabis seeds is ceased or delayed, and we do not find replacement suppliers and obtain all necessary authorizations. If for any reason the supply of cannabis seeds is ceased or delayed, we would have to seek alternate suppliers and obtain all necessary authorization for the new seeds. If replacement seeds cannot be obtained at comparable prices, or at all, or if the necessary authorizations are not obtained, our business, financial condition and results of operations would be materially and adversely affected.
Many of our competitors have greater resources that may enable them to compete more effectively than us in the cannabis industry. The industry in which we operate is subject to intense and increasing competition. Some of our competitors have a longer operating history and greater capital resources and facilities, which may enable them to compete more effectively in this market. We expect to face additional competition from existing licensees and new market entrants who are granted licenses in Colombia, who are not yet active in the industry. If a significant number of new licenses are granted in the near term, we may experience increased competition for market share and may experience downward pricing pressure on our products as new entrants increase production. Such competition may cause us to encounter difficulties in generating revenues and market share, and in positioning our products in the market. If we are unable to successfully compete with existing companies and new entrants to the market, our lack of competitive advantage will have a negative effect on our business and financial condition.
The Company could face competitive risks from the development and distribution of synthetic cannabis. The pharmaceutical industry and others may attempt to enter the cannabis industry and, in particular, the medical cannabis industry through the development and distribution of synthetic products that emulate the effects of and treatment provided by naturally occurring cannabis. If synthetic cannabis products are widely adopted, the widespread popularity of such synthetic cannabis products could change the demand, volume and profitability of the botanical cannabinoid industry. This could adversely affect our ability to secure long-term profitability and success through the sustainable and profitable operation of our business.
10
The legalization of adult-use, recreational cannabis may reduce sales of medical cannabis. Legalization of the sale to adults of recreational, non-medical cannabis in any country may increase competition in the medical cannabis market. We may not be able to achieve our business plan in a highly competitive market where recreational, adult-use cannabis is legal, or the market may experience a drop in the price of cannabis and cannabis products over time, decreasing our profit margins.
The Company is reliant on third party transportation services and importation services to deliver its products to customers. The Company relies on third party transportation services and importation services to deliver its products to its customers. The Company is exposed to the inherent risks associated with relying on third party transportation service-providers, including logistical problems, delays, loss or theft of product and increased shipping and insurance costs. Any delay in transporting the product, breach of security or loss of product, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial performance and results of operations. Further, any breach of security and loss of product during transport could affect the Company’s status as a licensed producer in Colombia.
The Company is dependent on suppliers to supply equipment, parts and components for the operation of its business. The Company’s ability to compete and grow will be dependent upon having access, at a reasonable cost and in a timely manner, to equipment, parts and components. No assurances can be given that the Company will be successful in maintaining the required supply of equipment, parts and components. It is also possible that the final costs of the major equipment contemplated by capital expenditure programs may be significantly greater than anticipated or available, in which circumstance there could be a materially adverse effect on the Company’s financial results.
We may not be able to establish and maintain bank accounts in certain countries. There is a risk that banking institutions in countries where we operate will not open accounts for us or will not accept payments or deposits from proceeds related to the cannabis industry. Such risks could increase our costs or prevent us from expanding into certain jurisdictions.
Cybersecurity risks related to the technology used in our operations and other business processes, as well as security breaches of company, customer, employee and vendor information, could adversely affect our business. We will rely on various information technology systems to capture, process, store and report data and interact with customers, vendors and employees. Despite careful security and controls design, as the prevalence of cyber-attacks continues to increase, our information technology systems, and those of our third-party providers, could become subject to increased security threats, such as phishing and malware incidents. Our security measures may be unable to prevent certain security breaches, and any such network, system, data or other breaches could result in misappropriation of sensitive data, transactional errors, theft of funds, business disruptions, loss of or damage to intellectual property, loss of customers and business opportunities, unauthorized access to or disclosure of confidential or personal information (which could cause a breach of applicable data protection legislation), regulatory fines, penalties or intervention, reputational damage, reimbursement or other compensatory costs and additional compliance costs, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Because the techniques used to obtain unauthorized access to, or disable, degrade or sabotage, information technologies systems change frequently, and may not be recognized until after they have been launched against a target, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques, implement adequate preventative measures or remediate any breach in a timely or effective manner. In addition, the development and maintenance of preventative or detective measures is costly, and requires ongoing monitoring and updating as technologies change and efforts to circumvent security measures become more sophisticated. As well as incurring additional costs, sophisticated hardware and operating system software and applications that we procure from third parties may contain defects in design or manufacture, including “bugs” and other problems that could unexpectedly interfere with the operation of the systems, or we may be unable to successfully integrate and launch new systems as planned without disruptions to our operations. Misuse of internal applications, theft of intellectual property, trade secrets, funds or other corporate assets and inappropriate disclosure of confidential information could stem from such incidents.
Despite our efforts, we remain potentially vulnerable to cyber-attacks and security breaches, and any such attack or breach could adversely affect our reputation, business, financial condition or results of operations.
It is possible that the COVID-19 pandemic, and the actions taken in response thereto, could continue to cause long-lasting stock market volatility and weakness, as well as long-lasting recessionary effects on the United States and/or global economies. On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern” and on March 10, 2020, declared it to be a pandemic. Effective April 7, 2023, President Biden declared an end to the COVID-19 health emergency in the United States. However, the actions taken to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 and to mitigate economic damage have had and are expected to continue to have a broad adverse impact on the economies and financial markets of many countries, including the United States.

Risks Related to Securities Compliance and Regulation
We will not have reporting obligations under Sections 14 or 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, nor will any shareholders have reporting requirements of Regulation 13D or 13G, nor Regulation 14D. So long as our common shares are not registered under the Exchange Act, our directors and executive officers and beneficial holders of 10% or more of our outstanding common shares will not be subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires executive officers and directors and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of equity securities to file with the SEC initial statements of beneficial ownership, reports of changes in ownership and annual reports concerning their ownership of common shares and other equity securities, on Forms 3, 4 and 5, respectively. Such information about our directors, executive officers and beneficial holders will only be available through periodic reports we file with OTC Markets.
Our common stock is not registered under the Exchange Act and we do not intend to register our common stock under the Exchange Act for the foreseeable future; provided, however, that we will register our common stock under the Exchange Act if we have, after the last day of any fiscal year, more than either (1) 2,000 persons; or (2) 500 shareholders of record who are not accredited investors, in accordance with Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act.
Further, as long as our common stock is not registered under the Exchange Act, we will not be subject to Section 14 of the Exchange Act, which, among other things, prohibits companies that have securities registered under the Exchange Act from soliciting proxies or consents from shareholders without furnishing to shareholders and filing with the SEC a proxy statement and form of proxy complying with the proxy rules.
The reporting required by Section 14(d) of the Exchange Act provides information to the public about persons other than the company who is making the tender offer. A tender offer is a broad solicitation by a company or a third party to purchase a substantial percentage of a company’s common stock for a limited period of time. This offer is for a fixed price, usually at a premium over the current market price, and is customarily contingent on shareholders tendering a fixed number of their shares.
In addition, as long as our common stock is not registered under the Exchange Act, our company will not be subject to the reporting requirements of Regulation 13D and Regulation 13G, which require the disclosure of any person who, after acquiring directly or indirectly the beneficial ownership of any equity securities of a class, becomes, directly or indirectly, the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the class.
There may be deficiencies with our internal controls that require improvements. Our company is not required to provide a report on the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting. We are in the process of evaluating whether our internal control procedures are effective and, therefore, there is a greater likelihood of undiscovered errors in our internal controls or reported financial statements as compared to issuers that have conducted such independent evaluations.
Risks Related to Our Organization and Structure
As a non-listed company conducting an exempt offering pursuant to Regulation A, we are not subject to a number of corporate governance requirements, including the requirements for independent board members. As a non-listed company conducting an exempt offering pursuant to Regulation A, we are not subject to a number of corporate governance requirements that an issuer conducting an offering on Form S-1 or listing on a national stock exchange would be. Accordingly, we are not required to have (a) a board of directors of which a majority consists of independent directors under the listing standards of a national stock exchange, (b) an audit committee composed entirely of independent directors and a written audit committee charter meeting a national stock exchange’s requirements, (c) a nominating/corporate governance committee composed entirely of independent directors and a written nominating/ corporate governance committee charter meeting a national stock exchange’s requirements, (d) a compensation committee composed entirely of independent directors and a written compensation committee charter meeting the requirements of a national stock exchange, and (e) independent audits of our internal controls. Accordingly, you may not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all of the corporate governance requirements of a national stock exchange.
Our holding company structure makes us dependent on our subsidiaries for our cash flow and could serve to subordinate the rights of our shareholders to the rights of creditors of our subsidiaries, in the event of an insolvency or liquidation of any such subsidiary. Our company acts as a holding company and, accordingly, substantially all of our operations are conducted through our subsidiaries. Such subsidiaries will be separate and distinct legal entities. As a result, substantially all of our cash flow will depend upon the earnings of our subsidiaries. In addition, we will depend on the distribution of earnings, loans or other payments by our subsidiaries. No subsidiary will have any obligation to provide our company with funds for our payment obligations. If there is an insolvency, liquidation or other reorganization of any of our subsidiaries, our shareholders will have no right to proceed against their assets. Creditors of those subsidiaries will be entitled to payment in full from the sale or other disposal of the assets of those subsidiaries before our company, as a shareholder, would be entitled to receive any distribution from that sale or disposal.
12
Risks Related to a Purchase of the Offered Shares
The outstanding shares of our Series A Preferred Stock preclude current and future owners of our common stock from influencing any corporate decision. The outstanding shares of our Series A Preferred Stock possess superior voting rights, which preclude current and future owners of our common stock, including the Offered Shares, from influencing any corporate decision. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock has the right to 500 votes in all corporate matters. The owners of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock, one of whom is our Sole Director and Officer, Jose Gabriel Díaz, will, therefore, be able to control the management and affairs of our company, as well as matters requiring the approval by our shareholders, including the election of directors, any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets, and any other significant corporate transaction. (See “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management”).
There is no minimum offering and no person has committed to purchase any of the Offered Shares. We have not established a minimum offering hereunder, which means that we will be able to accept even a nominal amount of proceeds, even if such amount of proceeds is not sufficient to permit us to achieve any of our business objectives. In this regard, there is no assurance that we will sell any of the Offered Shares or that we will sell enough of the Offered Shares necessary to achieve any of our business objectives. Additionally, no person is committed to purchase any of the Offered Shares.
We may seek additional capital that may result in shareholder dilution or that may have rights senior to those of our common stock. From time to time, we may seek to obtain additional capital, either through equity, equity-linked or debt securities. The decision to obtain additional capital will depend on, among other factors, our business plans, operating performance and condition of the capital markets. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of equity, equity-linked or debt securities, those securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to the rights of our common stock, which could negatively affect the market price of our common stock or cause our shareholders to experience dilution.
You may never realize any economic benefit from a purchase of Offered Shares. Because the market for our common stock is volatile, there is no assurance that you will ever realize any economic benefit from your purchase of Offered Shares.
We do not intend to pay dividends on our common stock. We intend to retain earnings, if any, to provide funds for the implementation of our business strategy. We do not intend to declare or pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. Therefore, there can be no assurance that holders of our common stock will receive cash, stock or other dividends on their shares of our common stock, until we have funds which our Board of Directors determines can be allocated to dividends.
Our shares of common stock are Penny Stock, which may impair trading liquidity. Disclosure requirements pertaining to penny stocks may reduce the level of trading activity in the market for our common stock and investors may find it difficult to sell their shares. Trades of our common stock will be subject to Rule 15g-9 of the SEC, which rule imposes certain requirements on broker-dealers who sell securities subject to the rule to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. For transactions covered by the rule, broker-dealers must make a special suitability determination for purchasers of the securities and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction prior to sale. The SEC also has rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in that security is provided by the exchange or system). The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation.
The market price for our common stock has been, and may continue to be, highly volatile. The market for low-priced securities is generally less liquid and more volatile than securities traded on national stock markets. Wide fluctuations in market prices are not uncommon. No assurance can be given that the market for our common stock will continue. The price of our common stock may be subject to wide fluctuations in response to factors such as the following, some of which are beyond our control:
·quarterly variations in our operating results;
·operating results that vary from the expectations of investors;
·changes in expectations as to our future financial performance, including financial estimates by investors;
·reaction to our periodic filings, or presentations by executives at investor and industry conferences;
·changes in our capital structure;
·announcements of innovations or new services by us or our competitors;
13
·announcements by us or our competitors of significant contracts, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments;
·lack of success in the expansion of our business operations;
·announcements by third parties of significant claims or proceedings against our company or adverse developments in pending proceedings;
·additions or departures of key personnel;
·asset impairment;
·temporary or permanent inability to offer our products and services; and
·rumors or public speculation about any of the above factors.
The terms of this offering were determined arbitrarily. The terms of this offering were determined arbitrarily by us. The offering price for the Offered Shares does not necessarily bear any relationship to our company’s assets, book value, earnings or other established criteria of valuation. Accordingly, the offering price of the Offered Shares should not be considered as an indication of any intrinsic value of such securities. (See “Dilution”).
Our common stock is subject to price volatility unrelated to our operations. The market price of our common stock could fluctuate substantially due to a variety of factors, including market perception of our ability to achieve our planned growth, quarterly operating results of other companies in the same industry, trading volume in our common stock, changes in general conditions in the economy and the financial markets or other developments affecting our company’s competitors or our company itself. In addition, the over-the-counter stock market is subject to extreme price and volume fluctuations in general. This volatility has had a significant effect on the market price of securities issued by many companies for reasons unrelated to their operating performance and could have the same effect on our common stock.
You will suffer dilution in the net tangible book value of the Offered Shares you purchase in this offering. If you acquire any Offered Shares, you will suffer immediate dilution, due to the lower book value per share of our common stock compared to the purchase price of the Offered Shares in this offering. (See “Dilution”).
As an issuer of penny stock, the protection provided by the federal securities laws relating to forward looking statements does not apply to us. Although federal securities laws 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 legal action based upon a claim that the material provided by us 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. Such an action could hurt our financial condition.
14
Ownership Dilution
The information under “Investment Dilution” below does not take into account the potential conversion of the 2,000,000 outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock into 1,000,000,000 shares of our common stock. The 2,000,000 outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock may be converted into shares of our common stock at anytime.
The conversion of the 2,000,000 outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock into shares of our common stock would cause holders of our common stock, including the Offered Shares, to incur significant dilution in their ownership of our company. The effect of the rights of conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock is that the holders, were the holders to convert the shares of Series A Preferred Stock into common stock upon the sale of all of the Offered Shares, the holder would be issued a number of shares of common stock equal to approximately 65% of our then-outstanding shares of common stock. (See “Risk Factors-Risks Related to a Purchase of the Offered Shares,” “Description of Securities” and “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management”).
Investment Dilution
Dilution in net tangible book value per share to purchasers of our common stock in this offering represents the difference between the amount per share paid by purchasers of the Offered Shares in this offering and the net tangible book value per share immediately after completion of this offering. In this offering, dilution is attributable primarily to our negative net tangible book value per share.

Background
Software Effective Solutions Corp is a Louisiana corporation originally incorporated in 1999. On October 25, 2021, our company acquired MedCana, Inc., a Nevada corporation, pursuant to an agreement and plan of exchange. MedCana, Inc. (Nevada) owns assets in Nevada, and also in the country of Colombia. The Nevada assets are computer software and hardware, and also databases and webservers hosted in the United States. The Colombian assets are 5 businesses; each business owns 3 Colombian (federally issued) territorial-based licenses that permit cultivation and food/pharmaceutical processing of cannabis, for a total of 15 licenses. The licenses are legal permits that have monetary value. The value is based on two criteria: 1) the actual cost of owning the license (and also based on the purchase price of the licenses itself), and 2) the license grants the usage of land specified within the contract license, which is worth of the future farm yields (crop yields) that have a market value at the time of harvesting and reselling the crop.
TOKAN Corporation sold its software and hardware assets and Intellectual Property assets to the Company for 63,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company. The agreement was made on August 15, 2021. This constitutes approximately 63% of the total issued and outstanding common shares. The software and hardware, and Intellectual Property assets are the most important assets for the Company because it will persist and be constantly upgraded to the most modern technology, and compete with other software/hardware systems.
MedCana, Inc.’s Colombian assets, which shall be used to supplement the Company’s software, include 5 businesses, located in the country of Colombia. Each of these 5 businesses hold (own) 3 Colombian (federally issued) territorial-based licenses that permit cultivation and food/pharmaceutical processing of cannabis. The total number of licenses is 15 (fifteen) altogether.
The licenses are legal permits that have monetary value. The value is based on two criteria: 1) the actual cost of owning the license (and also based on the purchase price of the licenses itself), and 2) the license grants the usage of land specified within the contract license, which is worth of the future farm yields (crop yields) that have a market value at the time of harvesting and reselling the crop. Medcana also owns a 60% stake in Eko2o S.A.S, a company that sells and services agricultural technology solutions, irrigation systems, sensors and monitoring systems, and green houses.
The Company expects that it will develop the software/hardware/Intellectual Property for its own private use at first, so that it can test the robustness of the software. After thorough testing and software upgrades, it will aspire to add unique features that will make it enticing for other cannabis vendors to use the software, and so we aim to sell them the software/hardware.
Product Offerings
1.Sell companies or individuals the software and hardware as a package, contained in a Virtual Machine, so that they can host it onto their own servers. The Company will send a Virtual Machine file, which is compatible with the most popular Virtual Machine engines - Docker, Amazon Web Servers Containers, VMWare, or Virtual Box
2.Alternatively, we can offer a 24/7 online subscription model, which requires us to give them an APP, such as an application that interfaces with our main servers, as a client/server model. It is also known as a SaaS (software as a service), which means that we will give them a subscription based model of paying for the usage of our software. Integration will be seamless to them, but more complex for the Company to perform because the Company would have to anticipate all of the permutations that a typical cannabis dispensary company, pharmaceutical company, cannabis reseller, would need in order for it to be useful for them.
The sales are anticipated to be segmented into 2 business verticals: 1) software/hardware/intellectual property, and 2) physical sale of crop yields to local and international buyers. Because the software/hardware requires a ramp up period versus the physical farming is simpler, the first product anticipated to provide sales is #2, which is the Cannabis plant material. For the longevity of revenues, we expect it to pivot to #1, which is the software/hardware SaaS offering.
Our original business plan is Content Management Systems, CMS. And we are not deviating from this business plan. We are still aiming to be a software/hardware/IP company, and our extra land assets in Colombia aim to give us revenue, which we will send its profits to the farming and to the American software/hardware.
22
The subscriber-based product offerings brought forth are Software as a Service (SaaS) subscription models (recurring revenue model). Specifically, the Company has identified the need for reliable Inventory Tracking Services for the growing Marijuana Dispensary and Cannabis Derivative sector. The reason for choosing the Marijuana Dispensary and Cannabis Derivative Inventory Tracking System is because: A) There are numerous public companies that are selling these products and may need the expertise of tracking their items. B) Having clients that are publicly traded adds legitimacy and has advantageous marketing aspects. And C) We have a good working knowledge of how and where the hosting servers are domiciled, in order to abide by all regulations set forth upon the industry, so that the Company can help these marijuana start-up businesses be compliant.
The Company has programming expertise and knowledge to execute and code the software lifecycle and relevant use-cases, to make a viable SaaS platform for vendors of Cannabis, growers of Cannabis, and related hardware vendors, in order to track their products. (This is known in the industry as Seed to Store tracking). The Company has chosen Amazon.com’s AWS hosting to be the prime hosting vendor for this project because it has geographical load balancing and can abide by the appropriate jurisdictions that then legally serve its content to our clients.
The Business Plan, and Software Plan
Software / Hardware / IP Offering.
The Software/Hardware/IP constitutes about 60% of the Company’s focus. Upon clinical research, the cannabis industry is fragmented due to various software that vendors use, and a lack of integration. This is analogous to how accounting software companies in the 1990’s aimed to be the leader, and then they all distilled down via takeovers and buyouts, to only 3 big vendors in the early 2010’s - Simply Accounting, Quickbooks, and Sage.
The figure below shows how fragmented the cannabis software industry is currently. We anticipate that it will be reduced to 3 leaders.

·Make money from our Colombian assets to expand our software offerings: Expand quickly to become one of the largest, if not the largest, diversified growth, certified processing, and exporting operation in Colombia.
·Create unique patentable products (or even farming processes if we come across a reproducible technique) through our research and development actions.
·Create a recognizable brand that is synonymous to good quality and good reputation.
·Create globally certified pharmaceutical grade extracts, if we are able to make connections with pharmacologists and laboratories.
·Use our own software and advertise how well our software is.
The Colombian assets will help us grow our software offering. We have a solid physical asset, and there are limitations on its yield. However, if those profits are reinvested into software, the Return on Investment (ROI) and EPS will be much higher if we stay the course of maintaining as a software company.
Plan for Our Colombian Assets
Our Assets in Colombia aim to provide profit which will go into the software/hardware offering.

Conflicts of Interest
At the present time, we do not foresee any direct conflict between our sole officer and director, his other business interests and his involvement in our company.
Corporate Governance and Director Independence
Our Board has not established any committees, including an audit committee, a compensation committee or a nominating committee, or any committee performing a similar function. The functions of those committees are being undertaken by our Board. Because we do not have any independent directors, our Board believes that the establishment of committees of our Board would not provide any benefits to our company and could be considered more form than substance.
We do not have a policy regarding the consideration of any director candidates that may be recommended by our stockholders, including the minimum qualifications for director candidates, nor have our officers and directors established a process for identifying and evaluating director nominees. We have not adopted a policy regarding the handling of any potential recommendation of director candidates by our stockholders, including the procedures to be followed. Our officers and directors have not considered or adopted any of these policies as we have never received a recommendation from any shareholder for any candidate to serve on our Board of Directors.
Given our relative size and lack of directors’ and officers’ insurance coverage, we do not anticipate that any of our shareholders will make such a recommendation in the near future. While there have been no nominations of additional directors proposed, in the event such a proposal is made, all current members of our Board will participate in the consideration of director nominees.
31
As with most small, early-stage companies until such time as our company further develops our business, achieves a revenue base and has sufficient working capital to purchase directors’ and officers’ insurance, we do not have any immediate prospects to attract independent directors. When we are able to expand our Board to include one or more independent directors, we intend to establish an audit committee of our Board of Directors. It is our intention that one or more of these independent directors will also qualify as an audit committee financial expert. Our securities are not quoted on an exchange that has requirements that a majority of our Board members be independent, and we are not currently otherwise subject to any law, rule or regulation requiring that all or any portion of our Board of Directors include “independent” directors, nor are we required to establish or maintain an audit committee or other committee of our Board.
Our sole director is not independent. We are not currently subject to any law, rule or regulation requiring that all or any portion of our Board of Directors include independent directors.
Shareholder Communications with Our Board of Directors
Our company welcomes comments and questions from our shareholders. Shareholders should direct all communications to our Chief Executive Officer, Stephen W. Carnes, at our executive offices. However, while we appreciate all comments from shareholders, we may not be able to respond individually to all communications. We attempt to address shareholder questions and concerns in our press releases and documents filed with OTC Markets, so that all shareholders have access to information about us at the same time. Mr. Carnes collects and evaluates all shareholder communications. All communications addressed to our directors and executive officers will be reviewed by those parties, unless the communication is clearly frivolous.
Code of Ethics
Our Board of Directors has not adopted a Code of Ethics.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
During the past five years none of our directors, executive officers, promoters or control persons was:
1)the subject of any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time;
2)convicted in a criminal proceeding or is subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses);
3)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 or banking activities; or
4)found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law.

SOFTWARE EFFECTIVE SOLUTIONS CORP.
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2024
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS
Software Effective Solutions Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Louisiana in June 1997. The Company changed its name to Software Effective Solutions Corp. in November 2006.
October 25, 2021, the Company acquired all the equity of MedCana, Inc., a Nevada corporation pursuant to an agreement and plan of exchange, making MedCana a 100% owned subsidiary.
Effective January 4, 2022, Maximum Ventures, LLC, a Company controlled by Xu A Tang, former Director, sold their 2,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to Gabriel Diaz (510,000 shares), Julie Hale (510,000 shares), and Tamian S.A.S. (980,000 shares). The sale of the Series A Preferred Stock effective a change of control of the Company.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The Company’s unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The accompanying unaudited financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring items, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations for the periods shown and are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2024.
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.
Principles of Consolidation
The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, MedCana, Inc. Any intercompany transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
We maintain our cash in bank deposit accounts, the balances of which at times may exceed federally insured limits. We continually monitor our banking relationships and consequently have not experienced any losses in our accounts. We believe we are not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash.
Intangible Assets
The Company accounts for its intangible assets in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 350-30, General Intangibles Other Than Goodwill. ASC Subtopic 350-30, which requires assets to be measured based on the fair value of the consideration given or the fair value of the assets (or net assets) acquired, whichever is more clearly evident and, thus, more reliably measurable. Under ASC Subtopic 350-30 any intangible asset with a useful life is required to be amortized over that life and the useful life is to be evaluated every reporting period to determine whether events or circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of amortization. If the estimate of useful life is changed the remaining carrying amount of the intangible asset is amortized prospectively over the revised remaining useful life. Costs to renew or extend the term of an intangible assets are recognized as an expense when incurred.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company periodically reviews the carrying value of its long-lived assets held and used at least annually or when events and circumstances warrant such a review. If significant events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable, the Company performs a test of recoverability by comparing the carrying value of the asset or asset group to its undiscounted expected future cash flows. Cash flow projections are sometimes based on a group of assets, rather than a single asset. If cash flows cannot be separately and independently identified for a single asset, the Company determines whether impairment has occurred for the group of assets for which it can identify the projected cash flows. If the carrying values are in excess of undiscounted expected future cash flows, it measures any impairment by comparing the fair value of the asset group to its carrying value. If the fair value of an asset or asset group is determined to be less than the carrying amount of the asset or asset group, impairment in the amount of the difference is recorded.
F-5
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the unaudited financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying unaudited financial statements, the Company has no revenue or an established source of revenue. These factors among others raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
While the Company is attempting to commence operations and generate revenues, the Company’s cash position may not be significant enough to support the Company’s daily operations. Management intends to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to further implement its business plan and generate revenues provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern. While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to generate revenues and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that effect. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to further implement its business plan and generate revenues. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

SOFTWARE EFFECTIVE SOLUTIONS CORP.
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2023
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS
Software Effective Solutions Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Louisiana in June 1997. The Company changed its name to Software Effective Solutions Corp. in November 2006.
October 25, 2021, the Company acquired all the equity of MedCana, Inc., a Nevada corporation pursuant to an agreement and plan of exchange, making MedCana a 100% owned subsidiary.

(980,000 shares). The sale of the Series A Preferred Stock effective a change of control of the Company.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
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.
Principles of Consolidation
The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, MedCana, Inc. Any intercompany transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
We maintain our cash in bank deposit accounts, the balances of which at times may exceed federally insured limits. We continually monitor our banking relationships and consequently have not experienced any losses in our accounts. We believe we are not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash.
Fair value of financial instruments
The Company follows paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to measure the fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three (3) broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three (3) levels of fair value hierarchy defined by Paragraph 820-10-35-37 are described below:
Level 1: Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.
Level 2: Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date.
Level 3: Pricing inputs that are generally unobservable inputs and not corroborated by market data.
The carrying amount of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments. The Company’s notes payable represents the fair value of such instruments as the notes bear interest rates that are consistent with current market rates.
F-12
Stock-based Compensation
We account for equity-based transactions with employees and non-employees under the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation” (Topic 718), which establishes that equity-based payments to employees and non-employees are recorded at the grant date the fair value of the equity instruments the entity is obligated to issue when the employees and non-employees have rendered the requisite service and satisfied any other conditions necessary to earn the right to benefit from the instruments. Topic 718 also states that observable market prices of identical or similar equity or liability instruments in active markets are the best evidence of fair value and, if available, should be used as the basis for the measurement for equity and liability instruments awarded in these share-based payment transactions. However, if observable market prices of identical or similar equity or liability instruments are not available, the fair value shall be estimated by using a valuation technique or model that complies with the measurement objective, as described in FASB ASC Topic 718.
Net Loss per Share
Basic net loss per share of common stock is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive outstanding shares of common stock during the period. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, no potentially dilutive shares of common stock have been included because of their anti-dilutive effect due to the Company’s net loss.
Intangible Assets
The Company accounts for its intangible assets in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 350-30, General Intangibles Other Than Goodwill. ASC Subtopic 350-30, which requires assets to be measured based on the fair value of the consideration given or the fair value of the assets (or net assets) acquired, whichever is more clearly evident and, thus, more reliably measurable. Under ASC Subtopic 350-30 any intangible asset with a useful life is required to be amortized over that life and the useful life is to be evaluated every reporting period to determine whether events or circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of amortization. If the estimate of useful life is changed the remaining carrying amount of the intangible asset is amortized prospectively over the revised remaining useful life. Costs to renew or extend the term of an intangible assets are recognized as an expense when incurred.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company periodically reviews the carrying value of its long-lived assets held and used at least annually or when events and circumstances warrant such a review. If significant events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable, the Company performs a test of recoverability by comparing the carrying value of the asset or asset group to its undiscounted expected future cash flows. Cash flow projections are sometimes based on a group of assets, rather than a single asset. If cash flows cannot be separately and independently identified for a single asset, the Company determines whether impairment has occurred for the group of assets for which it can identify the projected cash flows. If the carrying values are in excess of undiscounted expected future cash flows, it measures any impairment by comparing the fair value of the asset group to its carrying value. If the fair value of an asset or asset group is determined to be less than the carrying amount of the asset or asset group, impairment in the amount of the difference is recorded.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
On March 23, 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an Exposure Draft “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Crypto Assets” (Subtopic 350-60), Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets. Under the provisions of this Exposure Draft, an entity would be required to present crypto assets separately from other intangible assets in the balance sheet, and measure crypto assets at fair value with changes recognized in net income each reporting period. Upon effectiveness, an entity would reflect a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. Issuance of the final standard is subject to public comment and deliberations.
NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying unaudited financial statements, the Company has no revenue or an established source of revenue.

Interest shall commence accruing on the date that the Holder pays the full Purchase Price to the Borrower and shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed. All payments due hereunder (to the extent not converted into common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the ACommon Stock@) in accordance with the terms hereof) shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America. All payments shall be made at such address as the Holder shall hereafter give to the Borrower by written notice made in accordance with the provisions of this Note.
Each capitalized term used herein, and not otherwise defined, shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated the date hereof, pursuant to which this Note was originally issued (the APurchase Agreement@).
This Note is free from all taxes, liens, claims and encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof and shall not be subject to preemptive rights or other similar rights of shareholders of the Borrower and will not impose personal liability upon the holder thereof.
The following terms shall apply to this Note:
Article I. Conversion Rights
1.1Conversion Right. The Holder shall have the right from time to time, and at any time during the period beginning on the date which is one hundred eighty (180) days following the date of this Note and ending on the later of: (i) the Maturity Date, or (ii) the date of payment of the Default Amount (as defined in Article III), each in respect of the remaining outstanding amount of this Note to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid amount of this Note into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock, as such Common Stock exists on the Issue Date, or, in the event of a recapitalization or merger, any shares of capital stock or other securities of the Borrower into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified at the conversion price (the AConversion Price@) determined as provided herein (a AConversion@) [The foregoing is not a ratchet provision; in the event of a recapitalization or merger, if common shareholder receive any other shares or interests, i.e., shares of a different issuer in the event of a merger, the Note will convert into such shares. That is the Note conversion rights will follow the merger.]; provided, however, that in no event shall the Holder be entitled to convert any portion of this Note in excess of that portion of this Note upon conversion of which the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates (other than shares of Common Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the unconverted portion of the Notes or the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other security of the Borrower subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitations contained herein) and (2) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the portion of this Note with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made, would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. For purposes of the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the AExchange Act@), and Regulations 13D-G thereunder, except as otherwise provided in clause (1) of such proviso. The beneficial ownership limitations on conversion as set forth in the section may NOT be waived by the Holder. The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Note shall be determined by dividing the Conversion Amount (as defined below) by the applicable Conversion Price then in effect on the date specified in the notice of conversion, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the ANotice of Conversion@), delivered to the Borrower by the Holder in accordance with Section 1.4 below; provided that the Notice of Conversion is submitted by facsimile or e-mail (or by other means resulting in, or reasonably expected to result in, notice) to the Borrower before 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time on such conversion date (the AConversion Date@); however, if the Notice of Conversion is sent after 6:00pm, New York, New York time the Conversion Date shall be the next business day. The term AConversion Amount@ means, with respect to any conversion of this Note, the sum of (1) the principal amount of this Note to be converted in such conversion plus (2) accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such principal amount at the interest rates provided in this Note to the Conversion Date, plus (3) at the Holder=s option, Default Interest, if any, on the amounts referred to in the immediately preceding clauses (1) and/or (2) plus (4) at the Holder=s option, any amounts owed to the Holder pursuant to Sections 1.4 hereof.
1.1.1Rights of Qualification. The Holder shall have the right, which may be exercised at the Holder=s sole discretion, to convert any amount due under this Note into shares of any qualified Regulation A Offering under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the ASecurities Act@) of Borrower during the term of the any such Regulation A Offering, including Borrower=s current Regulation A Offering (File No. 024-12408). The number of shares to be issued upon any such conversion shall be in accordance with Section 1.2 of this Note. In conjunction with the rights granted to the Holder under this Section 1.1.1, Borrower shall, as may be required and while any amount due under this Note remains outstanding, (1) identify the Holder as a selling shareholder in each of its Regulation A Offering Circulars; and (2) qualify and allocate a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to repay the remaining balance under the Note in full.
1.2Conversion Price. The Conversion Price shall equal the Variable Conversion Price (as defined herein) (subject to equitable adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends or rights offerings by the Borrower relating to the Borrower=s securities or the securities of any subsidiary of the Borrower, combinations,
recapitalization, reclassifications, extraordinary distributions and similar events). The AVariable Conversion Price@ shall mean 25% multiplied by the Market Price (as defined herein) (representing a discount rate of 75%). AMarket Price@ means the closing price for the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date of any conversion. ATrading Day@ shall mean any day on which the Common Stock is tradable for any period on the OTC, or on the principal securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then being traded.
Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph, should the Holder exercise its conversion rights pursuant to Section 1.1.1 of this Note, the Conversion Price shall be equal to the then-current offering price of the applicable Regulation A Offering Statement.
1.3Authorized Shares. The Borrower covenants that during the period the conversion right exists, the Borrower will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares, free from preemptive rights, to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of this Note issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The Borrower is required at all times to have authorized and reserved four and one half times the number of shares that would be issuable upon full conversion of the Note (assuming that the 9.99% limitation set forth in Section 1.1 is not in effect) (based on the respective Conversion Price of the Note (as defined in Section 1.2) in effect from time to time, initially 20,000,000 shares) (the AReserved Amount@). The Reserved Amount shall be increased (or decreased with the written consent of the Holder) from time to time in accordance with the Borrower=s obligations hereunder. The Borrower represents that upon issuance, such shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. In addition, if the Borrower shall issue any securities or make any change to its capital structure which would change the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Notes shall be convertible at the then current Conversion Price, the Borrower shall at the same time make proper provision so that thereafter there shall be a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved, free from preemptive rights, for conversion of the outstanding Note. The Borrower (i) acknowledges that it has irrevocably instructed its transfer agent to issue certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, and (ii) agrees that its issuance of this Note shall constitute full authority to its officers and agents who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Note.
If, at any time the Borrower does not maintain the Reserved Amount it will be considered an Event of Default under Section 3.2 of the Note.
1.4Method of Conversion.
(a)Mechanics of Conversion. As set forth in Section 1.1 hereof, from time to time, and at any time, ending on the later of: (i) the Maturity Date and (ii) the date of payment of the Default Amount, this Note may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part at any time from time to time after the Issue Date, by (A) submitting to the Borrower a Notice of Conversion (by facsimile, e-mail or other reasonable means of communication dispatched on the Conversion Date prior to 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time) and (B) subject to Section 1.4(b), surrendering this Note at the principal office of the Borrower (upon payment in full of any amounts owed hereunder).

The Holder and the Borrower shall maintain records showing the principal amount so converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Borrower, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon each such conversion.
(c)Delivery of Common Stock Upon Conversion. Upon receipt by the Borrower from the Holder of a facsimile transmission or e-mail (or other reasonable means of communication) of a Notice of Conversion meeting the requirements for conversion as provided in this Section 1.4, the Borrower shall issue and deliver or cause to be issued and delivered to or upon the order of the Holder certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion within three (3) business days after such receipt (the ADeadline@) (and, solely in the case of conversion of the entire unpaid principal amount hereof, surrender of this Note) in accordance with the terms hereof and the Purchase Agreement. Upon receipt by the Borrower of a Notice of Conversion, the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the outstanding principal amount and the amount of accrued and unpaid interest on this Note shall be reduced to reflect such conversion, and, unless the Borrower defaults on its obligations hereunder, all rights with respect to the portion of this Note being so converted shall forthwith terminate except the right to receive the Common Stock or other securities, cash or other assets, as herein provided, on such conversion. If the Holder shall have given a Notice of Conversion as provided herein, the Borrower=s obligation to issue and deliver the certificates for Common Stock shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the absence of any action by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision thereof, the recovery of any judgment against any person or any action to enforce the same, any failure or delay in the enforcement of any other obligation of the Borrower to the holder of record, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder of any obligation to the Borrower, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Borrower to the Holder in connection with such conversion.
(d)Delivery of Common Stock by Electronic Transfer. In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Common Stock issuable upon conversion, provided the Borrower is participating in the Depository Trust Company (ADTC@) Fast Automated Securities Transfer (AFAST@) program, upon request of the Holder and its compliance with the provisions set forth herein, the Borrower shall use its best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Common Stock issuable upon conversion to the Holder by crediting the account of Holder=s Prime Broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (ADWAC@) system.
(e)Failure to Deliver Common Stock Prior to Deadline. Without in any way limiting the Holder=s right to pursue other remedies, including actual damages and/or equitable relief, the parties agree that if delivery of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note is not delivered by the Deadline (3 business days after receipt of Conversion Notice) due to action and/or inaction of the Borrower, the Borrower shall pay to the Holder $500 per day in cash, for each day beyond the Deadline that the Borrower fails to deliver such Common Stock (the AFail to Deliver Fee@); provided; however that the Fail to Deliver Fee shall not be due if the failure is a result of a third party (i.e., transfer agent; and not the result of any failure to pay such transfer agent) despite the best efforts of the Borrower to effect delivery of such Common Stock. Such cash amount shall be paid to Holder by the fifth day of the month following the month in which it has accrued or, at the option of the Holder (by written notice to the Borrower by the first day of the month following the month in which it has accrued), shall be added to the principal amount of this Note, in which event interest shall accrue thereon in accordance with the terms of this Note and such additional principal amount shall be convertible into Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Note. The Borrower agrees that the right to convert is a valuable right to the Holder. The damages resulting from a failure, attempt to frustrate, interference with such conversion right are difficult if not impossible to qualify. Accordingly, the parties acknowledge that the liquidated damages provision contained in this Section 1.4(e) are justified.
1.5Concerning the Shares. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note may not be sold or transferred unless: (i) the Borrower or its transfer agent shall have been furnished by the Holder with an opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect that the shares to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration (such as Rule 144 or a successor rule) (ARule 144@); or (ii) such shares are transferred to an Aaffiliate@ (as defined in Rule 144) of the Borrower who agrees to sell or otherwise transfer the shares only in accordance with this Section 1.5 and who is an Accredited Investor (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).
1.6Effect of Certain Events.
(a)Effect of Merger, Consolidation, Etc. At the option of the Holder, the sale, conveyance or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower, the effectuation by the Borrower of a transaction or series of related transactions in which more than 50% of the voting power of the Borrower is disposed of, or the consolidation, merger or other business combination of the Borrower with or into any other Person (as defined below) or Persons when the Borrower is not the survivor shall be deemed to be an Event of Default (as defined in Article III) pursuant to which the Borrower shall be required to pay to the Holder upon the consummation of and as a condition to such transaction an amount equal to the Default Amount (as defined in Article III). APerson@ shall mean any individual, corporation, limited liability company, partnership, association, trust or other entity or organization.
(b)Adjustment Due to Merger, Consolidation, Etc. If, at any time when this Note is issued and outstanding and prior to conversion of all of the Note, there shall be any merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, or other similar event, as a result of which shares of Common Stock of the Borrower shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of another class or classes of stock or securities of the Borrower or another entity, or in case of any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower other than in connection with a plan of complete liquidation of the Borrower, then the Holder of this Note shall thereafter have the right to receive upon conversion of this Note, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore issuable upon conversion, such stock, securities or assets which the Holder would have been entitled to receive in such transaction had this Note been converted in full immediately prior to such transaction (without regard to any limitations on conversion set forth herein), and in any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Note to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustment of the Conversion Price and of the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Note) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be practicable in relation to any securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the conversion hereof. The Borrower shall not affect any transaction described in this Section 1.6(b) unless (a) it first gives, to the extent practicable, ten (10) days prior written notice (but in any event at least five (5) days prior written notice) of the record date of the special meeting of shareholders to approve, or if there is no such record date, the consummation of, such merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar event or sale of assets (during which time the Holder shall be entitled to convert this Note) and (b) the resulting successor or acquiring entity (if not the Borrower) assumes by written instrument the obligations of this Note. The above provisions shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or share exchanges.
(c)Adjustment Due to Distribution. If the Borrower shall declare or make any distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Common Stock as a dividend, stock repurchase, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including any dividend or distribution to the Borrower=s shareholders in cash or shares (or rights to acquire shares) of capital stock of a subsidiary (i.e., a spin-off)) (a ADistribution@), then the Holder of this Note shall be entitled, upon any conversion of this Note after the date of record for determining shareholders entitled to such Distribution, to receive the amount of such assets which would have been payable to the Holder with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion had such Holder been the holder of such shares of Common Stock on the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to such Distribution. [NOTE: This is not a ratchet provision, it simply prohibits the issuer from effecting a distribution of assets or stock while attempting to avoid conversion or payment of the note (i.e., in the event of an asset distribution which renders the company a shell company, without the foregoing language, although it would be a default, the note holder would be left with little other remedies to attempt to be repaid from the spin off entity). Note that the language does not change the conversion price formula.]
1.7Prepayment. This Note may be prepaid at any time without penalty. The Holder=s conversion rights herein shall not be affected in any way until the Note is fully paid (funds received by the Holder).
ARTICLE II. CERTAIN COVENANTS
2.1Sale of Assets. So long as the Borrower shall have any obligation under this Note, the Borrower shall not, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any significant portion of its assets outside the ordinary course of business.

It is an obligation of the Borrower to remain current in its obligations to its transfer agent. It shall be an event of default of this Note, if a conversion of this Note is delayed, hindered or frustrated due to a balance owed by the Borrower to its transfer agent. If at the option of the Holder, the Holder advances any funds to the Borrower=s transfer agent in order to process a conversion, such advanced funds shall be paid by the Borrower to the Holder within forty-eight (48) hours of a demand from the Holder.

The following terms shall apply to this Note:
Article I. Conversion Rights
1.1Conversion Right. The Holder shall have the right from time to time, and at any time during the period beginning on the date which is one hundred eighty (180) days following the date of this Note and ending on the later of: (i) the Maturity Date, or (ii) the date of payment of the Default Amount (as defined in Article III), each in respect of the remaining outstanding amount of this Note to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid amount of this Note into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock, as such Common Stock exists on the Issue Date, or, in the event of a recapitalization or merger, any shares of capital stock or other securities of the Borrower into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified at the conversion price (the AConversion Price@) determined as provided herein (a AConversion@) [The foregoing is not a ratchet provision; in the event of a recapitalization or merger, if common shareholder receive any other shares or interests, i.e., shares of a different issuer in the event of a merger, the Note will convert into such shares. That is the Note conversion rights will follow the merger.]; provided, however, that in no event shall the Holder be entitled to convert any portion of this Note in excess of that portion of this Note upon conversion of which the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates (other than shares of Common Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the unconverted portion of the Notes or the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other security of the Borrower subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitations contained herein) and (2) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the portion of this Note with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made, would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. For purposes of the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the AExchange Act@), and Regulations 13D-G thereunder, except as otherwise provided in clause (1) of such proviso. The beneficial ownership limitations on conversion as set forth in the section may NOT be waived by the Holder. The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Note shall be determined by dividing the Conversion Amount (as defined below) by the applicable Conversion Price then in effect on the date specified in the notice of conversion, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the ANotice of Conversion@), delivered to the Borrower by the Holder in accordance with Section 1.4 below; provided that the Notice of Conversion is submitted by facsimile or e-mail (or by other means resulting in, or reasonably expected to result in, notice) to the Borrower before 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time on such conversion date (the AConversion Date@); however, if the Notice of Conversion is sent after 6:00pm, New York, New York time the Conversion Date shall be the next business day. The term AConversion Amount@ means,
with respect to any conversion of this Note, the sum of (1) the principal amount of this Note to be converted in such conversion plus (2) accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such principal amount at the interest rates provided in this Note to the Conversion Date, plus (3) at the Holder=s option, Default Interest, if any, on the amounts referred to in the immediately preceding clauses (1) and/or (2) plus (4) at the Holder=s option, any amounts owed to the Holder pursuant to Sections 1.4 hereof.

The Holder shall have the right, which may be exercised at the Holder=s sole discretion, to convert any amount due under this Note into shares of any qualified Regulation A Offering under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the ASecurities Act@) of Borrower during the term of the any such Regulation A Offering, including Borrower=s current Regulation A Offering (File No. 024-12408). The number of shares to be issued upon any such conversion shall be in accordance with Section 1.2 of this Note. In conjunction with the rights granted to the Holder under this Section 1.1.1, Borrower shall, as may be required and while any amount due under this Note remains outstanding, (1) identify the Holder as a selling shareholder in each of its Regulation A Offering Circulars; and (2) qualify and allocate a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to repay the remaining balance under the Note in full.
1.2Conversion Price. The Conversion Price shall equal the Variable Conversion Price (as defined herein) (subject to equitable adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends or rights offerings by the Borrower relating to the Borrower=s securities or the securities of any subsidiary of the Borrower, combinations, recapitalization, reclassifications, extraordinary distributions and similar events). The AVariable Conversion Price@ shall mean 25% multiplied by the Market Price (as defined herein) (representing a discount rate of 75%). AMarket Price@ means the closing price for the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date of any conversion. ATrading Day@ shall mean any day on which the Common Stock is tradable for any period on the OTC, or on the principal securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then being traded.
Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph, should the Holder exercise its conversion rights pursuant to Section 1.1.1 of this Note, the Conversion Price shall be equal to the then-current offering price of the applicable Regulation A Offering Statement.
1.3Authorized Shares. The Borrower covenants that during the period the conversion right exists, the Borrower will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares, free from preemptive rights, to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of this Note issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The Borrower is required at all times to have authorized and reserved four and one half times the number of shares that would be issuable upon full conversion of the Note (assuming that the 9.99% limitation set forth in Section 1.1 is not in effect) (based on the respective Conversion Price of the Note (as defined in Section 1.2) in effect from time to time, initially 20,000,000 shares) (the AReserved Amount@). The Reserved Amount shall be increased (or decreased with the written consent of the Holder) from time to time in accordance with the Borrower=s obligations hereunder. The Borrower represents that upon issuance, such shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. In addition, if the Borrower shall issue any securities or make any change to its capital structure which would change the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Notes shall be convertible at the then current Conversion Price, the Borrower shall at the same time make proper provision so that thereafter there shall be a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved, free from preemptive rights, for conversion of the outstanding Note. The Borrower (i) acknowledges that it has irrevocably instructed its transfer agent to issue certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, and (ii) agrees that its issuance of this Note shall constitute full authority to its officers and agents who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Note.
If, at any time the Borrower does not maintain the Reserved Amount it will be considered an Event of Default under Section 3.2 of the Note.
1.4Method of Conversion.
(a)Mechanics of Conversion. As set forth in Section 1.1 hereof, from time to time, and at any time, ending on the later of: (i) the Maturity Date and (ii) the date of payment of the Default Amount, this Note may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part at any time from time to time after the Issue Date, by (A) submitting to the Borrower a Notice of Conversion (by facsimile, e-mail or other reasonable means of communication dispatched on the Conversion Date prior to 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time) and (B) subject to Section 1.4(b), surrendering this Note at the principal office of the Borrower (upon payment in full of any amounts owed hereunder).
(b)Surrender of Note Upon Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Borrower unless the entire unpaid principal amount of this Note is so converted. The Holder and the Borrower shall maintain records showing the principal amount so converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Borrower, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon each such conversion.
(c)Delivery of Common Stock Upon Conversion. Upon receipt by the Borrower from the Holder of a facsimile
transmission or e-mail (or other reasonable means of communication) of a Notice of Conversion meeting the requirements for conversion as provided in this Section 1.4, the Borrower shall issue and deliver or cause to be issued and delivered to or upon the order of the Holder certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion within three (3) business days after such receipt (the ADeadline@) (and, solely in the case of conversion of the entire unpaid principal amount hereof, surrender of this Note) in accordance with the terms hereof and the Purchase Agreement. Upon receipt by the Borrower of a Notice of Conversion, the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the outstanding principal amount and the amount of accrued and unpaid interest on this Note shall be reduced to reflect such conversion, and, unless the Borrower defaults on its obligations hereunder, all rights with respect to the portion of this Note being so converted shall forthwith terminate except the right to receive the Common Stock or other securities, cash or other assets, as herein provided, on such conversion. If the Holder shall have given a Notice of Conversion as provided herein, the Borrower=s obligation to issue and deliver the certificates for Common Stock shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the absence of any action by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision thereof, the recovery of any judgment against any person or any action to enforce the same, any failure or delay in the enforcement of any other obligation of the Borrower to the holder of record, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder of any obligation to the Borrower, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Borrower to the Holder in connection with such conversion.
(d)Delivery of Common Stock by Electronic Transfer. In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Common Stock issuable upon conversion, provided the Borrower is participating in the Depository Trust Company (ADTC@) Fast Automated Securities Transfer (AFAST@) program, upon request of the Holder and its compliance with the provisions set forth herein, the Borrower shall use its best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Common Stock issuable upon conversion to the Holder by crediting the account of Holder=s Prime Broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (ADWAC@) system.
(e)Failure to Deliver Common Stock Prior to Deadline. Without in any way limiting the Holder=s right to pursue other remedies, including actual damages and/or equitable relief, the parties agree that if delivery of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note is not delivered by the Deadline (3 business days after receipt of Conversion Notice) due to action and/or inaction of the Borrower, the Borrower shall pay to the Holder $500 per day in cash, for each day beyond the Deadline that the Borrower fails to deliver such Common Stock (the AFail to Deliver Fee@); provided; however that the Fail to Deliver Fee shall not be due if the failure is a result of a third party (i.e., transfer agent; and not the result of any failure to pay such transfer agent) despite the best efforts of the Borrower to effect delivery of such Common Stock. Such cash amount shall be paid to Holder by the fifth day of the month following the month in which it has accrued or, at the option of the Holder (by written notice to the Borrower by the first day of the month following the month in which it has accrued), shall be added to the principal amount of this Note, in which event interest shall accrue thereon in accordance with the terms of this Note and such additional principal amount shall be convertible into Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Note. The Borrower agrees that the right to convert is a valuable right to the Holder. The damages resulting from a failure, attempt to frustrate, interference with such conversion right are difficult if not impossible to qualify. Accordingly, the parties acknowledge that the liquidated damages provision contained in this Section 1.4(e) are justified.
1.5Concerning the Shares. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note may not be sold or transferred unless: (i) the Borrower or its transfer agent shall have been furnished by the Holder with an opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect that the shares to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration (such as Rule 144 or a successor rule) (ARule 144@); or (ii) such shares are transferred to an Aaffiliate@ (as defined in Rule 144) of the Borrower who agrees to sell or otherwise transfer the shares only in accordance with this Section 1.5 and who is an Accredited Investor (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).
1.6Effect of Certain Events.
(a)Effect of Merger, Consolidation, Etc. At the option of the Holder, the sale, conveyance or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower, the effectuation by the Borrower of a transaction or series of related transactions in which more than 50% of the voting power of the Borrower is disposed of, or the consolidation, merger or other business combination of the Borrower with or into any other Person (as defined below) or Persons when the Borrower is not the survivor shall be deemed to be an Event of Default (as defined in Article III) pursuant to which the Borrower shall be required to pay to the Holder upon the consummation of and as a condition to such transaction an amount equal to the Default Amount (as defined in Article III). APerson@ shall mean any individual, corporation, limited liability company, partnership, association, trust or other entity or organization.
(b)Adjustment Due to Merger, Consolidation, Etc. If, at any time when this Note is issued and outstanding and prior to conversion of all of the Note, there shall be any merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, or other similar event, as a result of which shares of Common Stock of the Borrower shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of another class or classes of stock or securities of the Borrower or another entity, or in case of any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower other than in connection with a plan of complete liquidation of the Borrower, then the Holder of this Note shall thereafter have the right to receive upon conversion of this Note, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore issuable upon conversion, such stock, securities or assets which the Holder would have been entitled to receive in such transaction had this Note been converted in full immediately prior to such transaction (without regard to any limitations on conversion set forth herein), and in any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Note to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustment of the Conversion Price and of the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Note) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be practicable in relation to any securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the conversion hereof. The Borrower shall not affect any transaction described in this Section 1.6(b) unless (a) it first gives, to the extent practicable, ten (10) days prior written notice (but in any event at least five (5) days prior written notice) of the record date of the special meeting of shareholders to approve, or if there is no such record date, the consummation of, such merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar event or sale of assets (during which time the Holder shall be entitled to convert this Note) and (b) the resulting successor or acquiring entity (if not the Borrower) assumes by written instrument the obligations of this Note. The above provisions shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or share exchanges.
(c)Adjustment Due to Distribution. If the Borrower shall declare or make any distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Common Stock as a dividend, stock repurchase, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including any dividend or distribution to the Borrower=s shareholders in cash or shares (or rights to acquire shares) of capital stock of a subsidiary (i.e., a spin-off)) (a ADistribution@), then the Holder of this Note shall be entitled, upon any conversion of this Note after the date of record for determining shareholders entitled to such Distribution, to receive the amount of such assets which would have been payable to the Holder with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion had such Holder been the holder of such shares of Common Stock on the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to such Distribution. [NOTE: This is not a ratchet provision, it simply prohibits the issuer from effecting a distribution of assets or stock while attempting to avoid conversion or payment of the note (i.e., in the event of an asset distribution which renders the company a shell company, without the foregoing language, although it would be a default, the note holder would be left with little other remedies to attempt to be repaid from the spin off entity). Note that the language does not change the conversion price formula.]
1.7Prepayment. This Note may be prepaid at any time without penalty. The Holder=s conversion rights herein shall not be affected in any way until the Note is fully paid (funds received by the Holder).
ARTICLE II. CERTAIN COVENANTS
2.1Sale of Assets. So long as the Borrower shall have any obligation under this Note, the Borrower shall not, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any significant portion of its assets outside the ordinary course of business.

3.1Failure to Pay Principal and Interest. The Borrower fails to pay the principal hereof or interest thereon when due on this Note, whether at maturity or upon acceleration and such breach continues for a period of five (5) days after written notice from the Holder.

It is an obligation of the Borrower to remain current in its obligations to its transfer agent. It shall be an event of
default of this Note, if a conversion of this Note is delayed, hindered or frustrated due to a balance owed by the Borrower to its transfer agent. If at the option of the Holder, the Holder advances any funds to the Borrower=s transfer agent in order to process a conversion, such advanced funds shall be paid by the Borrower to the Holder within forty-eight (48) hours of a demand from the Holder.

AOther Agreements@ means, collectively, all agreements and instruments between, among or by: (1) the Borrower, and, or for the benefit of, (2) the Holder and any affiliate of the Holder, including, without limitation, promissory notes; provided, however, the term AOther Agreements@ shall not include the related or companion documents to this Note.

This Note may not be prepaid in whole or in part except as otherwise explicitly set forth herein. Any amount of principal or interest on this Note which is not paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum from the due date thereof until the same is paid (ADefault Interest@). Interest shall commence accruing on the date that the Holder pays the full Purchase Price to the Borrower and shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed. All payments due hereunder (to the extent not converted into common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the ACommon Stock@) in accordance with the terms hereof) shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America. All payments shall be made at such address as the Holder shall hereafter give to the Borrower by written notice made in accordance with the provisions of this Note.
Each capitalized term used herein, and not otherwise defined, shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated the date hereof, pursuant to which this Note was originally issued (the APurchase Agreement@).
This Note is free from all taxes, liens, claims and encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof and shall not be subject to preemptive rights or other similar rights of shareholders of the Borrower and will not impose personal liability upon the holder thereof.
The following terms shall apply to this Note:
Article I. Conversion Rights
1.1Conversion Right. The Holder shall have the right from time to time, and at any time during the period beginning on the date which is one hundred eighty (180) days following the date of this Note and ending on the later of: (i) the Maturity Date, or (ii) the date of payment of the Default Amount (as defined in Article III), each in respect of the remaining outstanding amount of this Note to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid amount of this Note into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock, as such Common Stock exists on the Issue Date, or, in the event of a recapitalization or merger, any shares of capital stock or other securities of the Borrower into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified at the conversion price (the AConversion Price@) determined as provided herein (a AConversion@) [The foregoing is not a ratchet provision; in the event of a recapitalization or merger, if common shareholder receive any other shares or interests, i.e., shares of a different issuer in the event of a merger, the Note will convert into such shares. That is the Note conversion rights will follow the merger.]; provided, however, that in no event shall the Holder be entitled to convert any portion of this Note in excess of that portion of this Note upon conversion of which the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates (other than shares of Common Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the unconverted portion of the Notes or the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other security of the Borrower subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitations contained herein) and (2) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the portion of this Note with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made, would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. For purposes of the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the AExchange Act@), and Regulations 13D-G thereunder, except as otherwise provided in clause (1) of such proviso. The beneficial ownership limitations on conversion as set forth in the section may NOT be waived by the Holder. The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Note shall be determined by dividing the Conversion Amount (as defined below) by the applicable Conversion Price then in effect on the date specified in the notice of conversion, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the ANotice of Conversion@), delivered to the Borrower by the Holder in accordance with Section 1.4 below; provided that the Notice of Conversion is submitted by facsimile or e-mail (or by other means resulting in, or reasonably expected to result in, notice) to the Borrower before 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time on such conversion date (the AConversion Date@); however, if the Notice of Conversion is sent after 6:00pm, New York, New York time the Conversion Date shall be the next business day. The term AConversion Amount@ means,
with respect to any conversion of this Note, the sum of (1) the principal amount of this Note to be converted in such conversion plus (2) accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such principal amount at the interest rates provided in this Note to the Conversion Date, plus (3) at the Holder=s option, Default Interest, if any, on the amounts referred to in the immediately preceding clauses (1) and/or (2) plus (4) at the Holder=s option, any amounts owed to the Holder pursuant to Sections 1.4 hereof.
1.1.1Rights of Qualification. The Holder shall have the right, which may be exercised at the Holder=s sole discretion, to convert any amount due under this Note into shares of any qualified Regulation A Offering under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the ASecurities Act@) of Borrower during the term of the any such Regulation A Offering, including Borrower=s current Regulation A Offering (File No. 024-12408). The number of shares to be issued upon any such conversion shall be in accordance with Section 1.2 of this Note. In conjunction with the rights granted to the Holder under this Section 1.1.1, Borrower shall, as may be required and while any amount due under this Note remains outstanding, (1) identify the Holder as a selling shareholder in each of its Regulation A Offering Circulars; and (2) qualify and allocate a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to repay the remaining balance under the Note in full.
1.2Conversion Price. The Conversion Price shall equal the Variable Conversion Price (as defined herein) (subject to equitable adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends or rights offerings by the Borrower relating to the Borrower=s securities or the securities of any subsidiary of the Borrower, combinations, recapitalization, reclassifications, extraordinary distributions and similar events). The AVariable Conversion Price@ shall mean 25% multiplied by the Market Price (as defined herein) (representing a discount rate of 75%). AMarket Price@ means the closing price for the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date of any conversion. ATrading Day@ shall mean any day on which the Common Stock is tradable for any period on the OTC, or on the principal securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then being traded.
Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph, should the Holder exercise its conversion rights pursuant to Section 1.1.1 of this Note, the Conversion Price shall be equal to the then-current offering price of the applicable Regulation A Offering Statement.
1.3Authorized Shares. The Borrower covenants that during the period the conversion right exists, the Borrower will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares, free from preemptive rights, to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of this Note issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The Borrower is required at all times to have authorized and reserved four and one half times the number of shares that would be issuable upon full conversion of the Note (assuming that the 9.99% limitation set forth in Section 1.1 is not in effect) (based on the respective Conversion Price of the Note (as defined in Section 1.2) in effect from time to time, initially 20,000,000 shares) (the AReserved Amount@). The Reserved Amount shall be increased (or decreased with the written consent of the Holder) from time to time in accordance with the Borrower=s obligations hereunder. The Borrower represents that upon issuance, such shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. In addition, if the Borrower shall issue any securities or make any change to its capital structure which would change the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Notes shall be convertible at the then current Conversion Price, the Borrower shall at the same time make proper provision so that thereafter there shall be a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved, free from preemptive rights, for conversion of the outstanding Note. The Borrower (i) acknowledges that it has irrevocably instructed its transfer agent to issue certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, and (ii) agrees that its issuance of this Note shall constitute full authority to its officers and agents who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Note.
If, at any time the Borrower does not maintain the Reserved Amount it will be considered an Event of Default under Section 3.2 of the Note.
1.4Method of Conversion.
(a)Mechanics of Conversion. As set forth in Section 1.1 hereof, from time to time, and at any time, ending on the later of: (i) the Maturity Date and (ii) the date of payment of the Default Amount, this Note may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part at any time from time to time after the Issue Date, by (A) submitting to the Borrower a Notice of Conversion (by facsimile, e-mail or other reasonable means of communication dispatched on the Conversion Date prior to 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time) and (B) subject to Section 1.4(b), surrendering this Note at the principal office of the Borrower (upon payment in full of any amounts owed hereunder).
(b)Surrender of Note Upon Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Borrower unless the entire unpaid principal amount of this Note is so converted. The Holder and the Borrower shall maintain records showing the principal amount so converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Borrower, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon each such conversion.
(c)Delivery of Common Stock Upon Conversion. Upon receipt by the Borrower from the Holder of a facsimile
transmission or e-mail (or other reasonable means of communication) of a Notice of Conversion meeting the requirements for conversion as provided in this Section 1.4, the Borrower shall issue and deliver or cause to be issued and delivered to or upon the order of the Holder certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion within three (3) business days after such receipt (the ADeadline@) (and, solely in the case of conversion of the entire unpaid principal amount hereof, surrender of this Note) in accordance with the terms hereof and the Purchase Agreement. Upon receipt by the Borrower of a Notice of Conversion, the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the outstanding principal amount and the amount of accrued and unpaid interest on this Note shall be reduced to reflect such conversion, and, unless the Borrower defaults on its obligations hereunder, all rights with respect to the portion of this Note being so converted shall forthwith terminate except the right to receive the Common Stock or other securities, cash or other assets, as herein provided, on such conversion. If the Holder shall have given a Notice of Conversion as provided herein, the Borrower=s obligation to issue and deliver the certificates for Common Stock shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the absence of any action by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision thereof, the recovery of any judgment against any person or any action to enforce the same, any failure or delay in the enforcement of any other obligation of the Borrower to the holder of record, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder of any obligation to the Borrower, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Borrower to the Holder in connection with such conversion.
(d)Delivery of Common Stock by Electronic Transfer. In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Common Stock issuable upon conversion, provided the Borrower is participating in the Depository Trust Company (ADTC@) Fast Automated Securities Transfer (AFAST@) program, upon request of the Holder and its compliance with the provisions set forth herein, the Borrower shall use its best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Common Stock issuable upon conversion to the Holder by crediting the account of Holder=s Prime Broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (ADWAC@) system.
(e)Failure to Deliver Common Stock Prior to Deadline. Without in any way limiting the Holder=s right to pursue other remedies, including actual damages and/or equitable relief, the parties agree that if delivery of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note is not delivered by the Deadline (3 business days after receipt of Conversion Notice) due to action and/or inaction of the Borrower, the Borrower shall pay to the Holder $500 per day in cash, for each day beyond the Deadline that the Borrower fails to deliver such Common Stock (the AFail to Deliver Fee@); provided; however that the Fail to Deliver Fee shall not be due if the failure is a result of a third party (i.e., transfer agent; and not the result of any failure to pay such transfer agent) despite the best efforts of the Borrower to effect delivery of such Common Stock. Such cash amount shall be paid to Holder by the fifth day of the month following the month in which it has accrued or, at the option of the Holder (by written notice to the Borrower by the first day of the month following the month in which it has accrued), shall be added to the principal amount of this Note, in which event interest shall accrue thereon in accordance with the terms of this Note and such additional principal amount shall be convertible into Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Note. The Borrower agrees that the right to convert is a valuable right to the Holder. The damages resulting from a failure, attempt to frustrate, interference with such conversion right are difficult if not impossible to qualify. Accordingly, the parties acknowledge that the liquidated damages provision contained in this Section 1.4(e) are justified.
1.5Concerning the Shares. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note may not be sold or transferred unless: (i) the Borrower or its transfer agent shall have been furnished by the Holder with an opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect that the shares to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration (such as Rule 144 or a successor rule) (ARule 144@); or (ii) such shares are transferred to an Aaffiliate@ (as defined in Rule 144) of the Borrower who agrees to sell or otherwise transfer the shares only in accordance with this Section 1.5 and who is an Accredited Investor (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).
1.6Effect of Certain Events.
(a)Effect of Merger, Consolidation, Etc. At the option of the Holder, the sale, conveyance or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower, the effectuation by the Borrower of a transaction or series of related transactions in which more than 50% of the voting power of the Borrower is disposed of, or the consolidation, merger or other business combination of the Borrower with or into any other Person (as defined below) or Persons when the Borrower is not the survivor shall be deemed to be an Event of Default (as defined in Article III) pursuant to which the Borrower shall be required to pay to the Holder upon the consummation of and as a condition to such transaction an amount equal to the Default Amount (as defined in Article III). APerson@ shall mean any individual, corporation, limited liability company, partnership, association, trust or other entity or organization.
(b)Adjustment Due to Merger, Consolidation, Etc. If, at any time when this Note is issued and outstanding and prior to conversion of all of the Note, there shall be any merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, or other similar event, as a result of which shares of Common Stock of the Borrower shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of another class or classes of stock or securities of the Borrower or another entity, or in case of any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower other than in connection with a plan of complete liquidation of the Borrower, then the Holder of this Note shall thereafter have the right to receive upon conversion of this Note, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore issuable upon conversion, such stock, securities or assets which the Holder would have been entitled to receive in such transaction had this Note been converted in full immediately prior to such transaction (without regard to any limitations on conversion set forth herein), and in any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Note to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustment of the Conversion Price and of the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Note) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be practicable in relation to any securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the conversion hereof. The Borrower shall not affect any transaction described in this Section 1.6(b) unless (a) it first gives, to the extent practicable, ten (10) days prior written notice (but in any event at least five (5) days prior written notice) of the record date of the special meeting of shareholders to approve, or if there is no such record date, the consummation of, such merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar event or sale of assets (during which time the Holder shall be entitled to convert this Note) and (b) the resulting successor or acquiring entity (if not the Borrower) assumes by written instrument the obligations of this Note. The above provisions shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or share exchanges.
(c)Adjustment Due to Distribution. If the Borrower shall declare or make any distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Common Stock as a dividend, stock repurchase, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including any dividend or distribution to the Borrower=s shareholders in cash or shares (or rights to acquire shares) of capital stock of a subsidiary (i.e., a spin-off)) (a ADistribution@), then the Holder of this Note shall be entitled, upon any conversion of this Note after the date of record for determining shareholders entitled to such Distribution, to receive the amount of such assets which would have been payable to the Holder with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion had such Holder been the holder of such shares of Common Stock on the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to such Distribution. [NOTE: This is not a ratchet provision, it simply prohibits the issuer from effecting a distribution of assets or stock while attempting to avoid conversion or payment of the note (i.e., in the event of an asset distribution which renders the company a shell company, without the foregoing language, although it would be a default, the note holder would be left with little other remedies to attempt to be repaid from the spin off entity). Note that the language does not change the conversion price formula.]
1.7Prepayment. This Note may be prepaid at any time without penalty. The Holder=s conversion rights herein shall not be affected in any way until the Note is fully paid (funds received by the Holder).
ARTICLE II. CERTAIN COVENANTS
2.1Sale of Assets. So long as the Borrower shall have any obligation under this Note, the Borrower shall not, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any significant portion of its assets outside the ordinary course of business. Any consent to the disposition of any assets may not be unreasonably withheld as long as such disposition does not render the Borrower a Ashell company@ as such term is defined in Rule 144.
ARTICLE III. EVENTS OF DEFAULT
If any of the following events of default (each, an AEvent of Default@) shall occur:
3.1Failure to Pay Principal and Interest. The Borrower fails to pay the principal hereof or interest thereon when due on this Note, whether at maturity or upon acceleration and such breach continues for a period of five (5) days after written notice from the Holder.
3.2Conversion and the Shares. The Borrower fails to issue shares of Common Stock to the Holder (or announces or threatens in writing that it will not honor its obligation to do so) upon exercise by the Holder of the conversion rights of the Holder in accordance with the terms of this Note, fails to transfer or cause its transfer agent to transfer (issue) (electronically or in certificated form) any certificate for shares of Common Stock issued to the Holder upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant to this Note as and when required by this Note, the Borrower directs its transfer agent not to transfer or delays, impairs, and/or hinders its transfer agent in transferring (or issuing) (electronically or in certificated form) any certificate for shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant to this Note as and when required by this Note, or fails to remove (or directs its transfer agent not to remove or impairs, delays, and/or hinders its transfer agent from removing) any restrictive legend (or to withdraw any stop transfer instructions in respect thereof) on any certificate for any shares of Common Stock issued to the Holder upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant to this Note as and when required by this Note (or makes any written announcement, statement or threat that it does not intend to honor the obligations described in this paragraph) and any such failure shall continue uncured (or any written announcement, statement or threat not to honor its obligations shall not be rescinded in writing) for three (3) business days after the Holder shall have delivered a Notice of Conversion. It is an obligation of the Borrower to remain current in its obligations to its transfer agent. It shall be an event of
default of this Note, if a conversion of this Note is delayed, hindered or frustrated due to a balance owed by the Borrower to its transfer agent. If at the option of the Holder, the Holder advances any funds to the Borrower=s transfer agent in order to process a conversion, such advanced funds shall be paid by the Borrower to the Holder within forty-eight (48) hours of a demand from the Holder.
3.3Breach of Covenants. The Borrower breaches any material covenant or other material term or condition contained in this Note and any collateral documents including but not limited to the Purchase Agreement and such breach continues for a period of twenty (20) days after written notice thereof to the Borrower from the Holder.
3.4Breach of Representations and Warranties. Any representation or warranty of the Borrower made herein or in any agreement, statement or certificate given in writing pursuant hereto or in connection herewith (including, without limitation, the Purchase Agreement), shall be false or misleading in any material respect when made and the breach of which has (or with the passage of time will have) a material adverse effect on the rights of the Holder with respect to this Note or the Purchase Agreement.
3.5Receiver or Trustee. The Borrower or any subsidiary of the Borrower shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver or trustee for it or for a substantial part of its property or business, or such a receiver or trustee shall otherwise be appointed.

3.8[Omitted].
3.9Liquidation. Any dissolution, liquidation, or winding up of Borrower or any substantial portion of its business.
3.10Cessation of Operations. Any cessation of operations by Borrower rendering the Borrower a Ashell company@ as such term is defined in Rule 144, or Borrower admits it is otherwise generally unable to pay its debts as such debts become due, provided, however, that any disclosure of the Borrower=s ability to continue as a Agoing concern@ shall not be an admission that the Borrower cannot pay its debts as they become due.
3.11Financial Statement Restatement. The restatement of any financial statements filed by the Borrower with OTC Markets at any time after 180 days after the Issuance Date for any date or period until this Note is no longer outstanding, if the result of such restatement would, by comparison to the un-restated financial statement, have constituted a material adverse effect on the rights of the Holder with respect to this Note or the Purchase Agreement.

In the event that the Borrower proposes to replace its transfer agent, the Borrower fails to provide, prior to the effective date of such replacement, a fully executed Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions in a form as initially delivered pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (including but not limited to the provision to irrevocably reserve shares of Common Stock in the Reserved Amount) signed by the successor transfer agent to Borrower and the Borrower.
3.13Cross-Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note or the other related or companion documents, a breach or default by the Borrower of any covenant or other term or condition contained in any of the Other Agreements, after the passage of all applicable notice and cure or grace periods, shall, at the option of the Holder, be considered a default under this Note and the Other Agreements, in which event the Holder shall be entitled (but in no event required) to apply all rights and remedies of the Holder under the terms of this Note and the Other Agreements by reason of a default under said Other Agreement or hereunder. AOther Agreements@ means, collectively, all agreements and instruments between, among or by: (1) the Borrower, and, or for the benefit of, (2) the Holder and any affiliate of the Holder, including, without limitation, promissory notes; provided, however, the term AOther Agreements@ shall not include the related or companion documents to this Note. Each of the loan transactions will be cross-defaulted with each other loan transaction and with all other existing and future debt of Borrower to the Holder.
Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default specified in Section 3.1 (solely with respect to failure to pay the principal hereof or interest thereon when due at the Maturity Date), the Note shall become immediately due and payable and the Borrower shall pay to the Holder, in full satisfaction of its obligations hereunder, an amount equal to the Default Sum (as defined herein). UPON THE OCCURRENCE AND DURING THE CONTINUATION OF ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT SPECIFIED IN SECTION 3.2, THE NOTE SHALL BECOME IMMEDIATELY DUE AND PAYABLE AND THE BORROWER SHALL PAY TO THE HOLDER, IN FULL SATISFACTION OF ITS OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO: (Y) THE DEFAULT SUM (AS DEFINED HEREIN); MULTIPLIED BY (Z) TWO (2). Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default specified in Sections 3.1 (solely with respect to failure to pay the principal hereof or interest thereon when due on this Note or upon acceleration), 3.3, 3.4, 3.7, 3.8, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, 3.13, and/or 3.14 exercisable through the delivery of written notice to the Borrower by such Holders (the ADefault Notice@), and upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified the remaining sections of Articles III (other than failure to pay the principal hereof or interest thereon at the Maturity Date specified in Section 3,1 hereof), the Note shall become immediately due and payable and the Borrower shall pay to the Holder, in full satisfaction of its obligations hereunder, an amount equal to 150% times the sum of (w) the then outstanding principal amount of this Note plus (x) accrued and unpaid interest on the unpaid principal amount of this Note to the date of payment (the AMandatory Prepayment Date@) plus (y) Default Interest, if any, on the amounts referred to in clauses (w) and/or (x) plus (z) any amounts owed to the Holder pursuant to Sections 1.3 and 1.4(g) hereof (the then outstanding principal amount of this Note to the date of payment plus the amounts referred to in clauses (x), (y) and (z) shall collectively be known as the ADefault Amount@) and all other amounts payable hereunder shall immediately become due and payable, all without demand, presentment or notice, all of which hereby are expressly waived, together with all costs, including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses, of collection, and the Holder shall be entitled to exercise all other rights and remedies available at law or in equity.
If the Borrower fails to pay the Default Amount within five (5) business days of written notice that such amount is due and payable and the details of the determination of such amount, then the Holder shall have the right at any time, so long as the Borrower remains in default (and so long and to the extent that there are sufficient authorized shares), to require the Borrower, upon written notice, to immediately issue, in lieu of the Default Amount, the number of shares of Common Stock of the Borrower equal to the Default Amount divided by the Conversion Price then in effect.

This Note may not be prepaid in whole or in part except as otherwise explicitly set forth herein. Any amount of principal or interest on this Note which is not paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum from the due date thereof until the same is paid (ADefault Interest@).

All payments due hereunder (to the extent not converted into common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the ACommon Stock@) in accordance with the terms hereof) shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America. All payments shall be made at such address as the Holder shall hereafter give to the Borrower by written notice made in accordance with the provisions of this Note.
Each capitalized term used herein, and not otherwise defined, shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated the date hereof, pursuant to which this Note was originally issued (the APurchase Agreement@).
This Note is free from all taxes, liens, claims and encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof and shall not be subject to preemptive rights or other similar rights of shareholders of the Borrower and will not impose personal liability upon the holder thereof.
The following terms shall apply to this Note:
Article I. Conversion Rights
1.1Conversion Right. The Holder shall have the right from time to time, and at any time during the period beginning on the date which is one hundred eighty (180) days following the date of this Note and ending on the later of: (i) the Maturity Date, or (ii) the date of payment of the Default Amount (as defined in Article III), each in respect of the remaining outstanding amount of this Note to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid amount of this Note into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock, as such Common Stock exists on the Issue Date, or, in the event of a recapitalization or merger, any shares of capital stock or other securities of the Borrower into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified at the conversion price (the AConversion Price@) determined as provided herein (a AConversion@) [The foregoing is not a ratchet provision; in the event of a recapitalization or merger, if common shareholder receive any other shares or interests, i.e., shares of a different issuer in the event of a merger, the Note will convert into such shares. That is the Note conversion rights will follow the merger.]; provided, however, that in no event shall the Holder be entitled to convert any portion of this Note in excess of that portion of this Note upon conversion of which the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates (other than shares of Common Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the unconverted portion of the Notes or the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other security of the Borrower subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitations contained herein) and (2) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the portion of this Note with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made, would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. For purposes of the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the AExchange Act@), and Regulations 13D-G thereunder, except as otherwise provided in clause (1) of such proviso. The beneficial ownership limitations on conversion as set forth in the section may NOT be waived by the Holder. The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Note shall be determined by dividing the Conversion Amount (as defined below) by the applicable Conversion Price then in effect on the date specified in the notice of conversion, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the ANotice of Conversion@), delivered to the Borrower by the Holder in accordance with Section 1.4 below; provided that the Notice of Conversion is submitted by facsimile or e-mail (or by other means resulting in, or reasonably expected to result in, notice) to the Borrower before 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time on such conversion date (the AConversion Date@); however, if the Notice of Conversion is sent after 6:00pm, New York, New York time the Conversion Date shall be the next business day. The term AConversion Amount@ means,
with respect to any conversion of this Note, the sum of (1) the principal amount of this Note to be converted in such conversion plus (2) accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such principal amount at the interest rates provided in this Note to the Conversion Date, plus (3) at the Holder=s option, Default Interest, if any, on the amounts referred to in the immediately preceding clauses (1) and/or (2) plus (4) at the Holder=s option, any amounts owed to the Holder pursuant to Sections 1.4 hereof.
1.1.1Rights of Qualification. The Holder shall have the right, which may be exercised at the Holder=s sole discretion, to convert any amount due under this Note into shares of any qualified Regulation A Offering under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the ASecurities Act@) of Borrower during the term of the any such Regulation A Offering, including Borrower=s current Regulation A Offering (File No. 024-12408). The number of shares to be issued upon any such conversion shall be in accordance with Section 1.2 of this Note. In conjunction with the rights granted to the Holder under this Section 1.1.1, Borrower shall, as may be required and while any amount due under this Note remains outstanding, (1) identify the Holder as a selling shareholder in each of its Regulation A Offering Circulars; and (2) qualify and allocate a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to repay the remaining balance under the Note in full.
1.2Conversion Price. The Conversion Price shall equal the Variable Conversion Price (as defined herein) (subject to equitable adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends or rights offerings by the Borrower relating to the Borrower=s securities or the securities of any subsidiary of the Borrower, combinations, recapitalization, reclassifications, extraordinary distributions and similar events). The AVariable Conversion Price@ shall mean 25% multiplied by the Market Price (as defined herein) (representing a discount rate of 75%). AMarket Price@ means the closing price for the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date of any conversion. ATrading Day@ shall mean any day on which the Common Stock is tradable for any period on the OTC, or on the principal securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then being traded.
Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph, should the Holder exercise its conversion rights pursuant to Section 1.1.1 of this Note, the Conversion Price shall be equal to the then-current offering price of the applicable Regulation A Offering Statement.
1.3Authorized Shares. The Borrower covenants that during the period the conversion right exists, the Borrower will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares, free from preemptive rights, to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of this Note issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The Borrower is required at all times to have authorized and reserved four and one half times the number of shares that would be issuable upon full conversion of the Note (assuming that the 9.99% limitation set forth in Section 1.1 is not in effect) (based on the respective Conversion Price of the Note (as defined in Section 1.2) in effect from time to time, initially 20,000,000 shares) (the AReserved Amount@). The Reserved Amount shall be increased (or decreased with the written consent of the Holder) from time to time in accordance with the Borrower=s obligations hereunder. The Borrower represents that upon issuance, such shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. In addition, if the Borrower shall issue any securities or make any change to its capital structure which would change the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Notes shall be convertible at the then current Conversion Price, the Borrower shall at the same time make proper provision so that thereafter there shall be a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved, free from preemptive rights, for conversion of the outstanding Note. The Borrower (i) acknowledges that it has irrevocably instructed its transfer agent to issue certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, and (ii) agrees that its issuance of this Note shall constitute full authority to its officers and agents who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Note.
If, at any time the Borrower does not maintain the Reserved Amount it will be considered an Event of Default under Section 3.2 of the Note.
1.4Method of Conversion.
(a)Mechanics of Conversion. As set forth in Section 1.1 hereof, from time to time, and at any time, ending on the later of: (i) the Maturity Date and (ii) the date of payment of the Default Amount, this Note may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part at any time from time to time after the Issue Date, by (A) submitting to the Borrower a Notice of Conversion (by facsimile, e-mail or other reasonable means of communication dispatched on the Conversion Date prior to 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time) and (B) subject to Section 1.4(b), surrendering this Note at the principal office of the Borrower (upon payment in full of any amounts owed hereunder).
(b)Surrender of Note Upon Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Borrower unless the entire unpaid principal amount of this Note is so converted. The Holder and the Borrower shall maintain records showing the principal amount so converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Borrower, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon each such conversion.
(c)Delivery of Common Stock Upon Conversion. Upon receipt by the Borrower from the Holder of a facsimile
transmission or e-mail (or other reasonable means of communication) of a Notice of Conversion meeting the requirements for conversion as provided in this Section 1.4, the Borrower shall issue and deliver or cause to be issued and delivered to or upon the order of the Holder certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion within three (3) business days after such receipt (the ADeadline@) (and, solely in the case of conversion of the entire unpaid principal amount hereof, surrender of this Note) in accordance with the terms hereof and the Purchase Agreement. Upon receipt by the Borrower of a Notice of Conversion, the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the outstanding principal amount and the amount of accrued and unpaid interest on this Note shall be reduced to reflect such conversion, and, unless the Borrower defaults on its obligations hereunder, all rights with respect to the portion of this Note being so converted shall forthwith terminate except the right to receive the Common Stock or other securities, cash or other assets, as herein provided, on such conversion. If the Holder shall have given a Notice of Conversion as provided herein, the Borrower=s obligation to issue and deliver the certificates for Common Stock shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the absence of any action by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision thereof, the recovery of any judgment against any person or any action to enforce the same, any failure or delay in the enforcement of any other obligation of the Borrower to the holder of record, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder of any obligation to the Borrower, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Borrower to the Holder in connection with such conversion.
(d)Delivery of Common Stock by Electronic Transfer. In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Common Stock issuable upon conversion, provided the Borrower is participating in the Depository Trust Company (ADTC@) Fast Automated Securities Transfer (AFAST@) program, upon request of the Holder and its compliance with the provisions set forth herein, the Borrower shall use its best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Common Stock issuable upon conversion to the Holder by crediting the account of Holder=s Prime Broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (ADWAC@) system.
(e)Failure to Deliver Common Stock Prior to Deadline. Without in any way limiting the Holder=s right to pursue other remedies, including actual damages and/or equitable relief, the parties agree that if delivery of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note is not delivered by the Deadline (3 business days after receipt of Conversion Notice) due to action and/or inaction of the Borrower, the Borrower shall pay to the Holder $500 per day in cash, for each day beyond the Deadline that the Borrower fails to deliver such Common Stock (the AFail to Deliver Fee@); provided; however that the Fail to Deliver Fee shall not be due if the failure is a result of a third party (i.e., transfer agent; and not the result of any failure to pay such transfer agent) despite the best efforts of the Borrower to effect delivery of such Common Stock. Such cash amount shall be paid to Holder by the fifth day of the month following the month in which it has accrued or, at the option of the Holder (by written notice to the Borrower by the first day of the month following the month in which it has accrued), shall be added to the principal amount of this Note, in which event interest shall accrue thereon in accordance with the terms of this Note and such additional principal amount shall be convertible into Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Note. The Borrower agrees that the right to convert is a valuable right to the Holder. The damages resulting from a failure, attempt to frustrate, interference with such conversion right are difficult if not impossible to qualify. Accordingly, the parties acknowledge that the liquidated damages provision contained in this Section 1.4(e) are justified.
1.5Concerning the Shares. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note may not be sold or transferred unless: (i) the Borrower or its transfer agent shall have been furnished by the Holder with an opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect that the shares to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration (such as Rule 144 or a successor rule) (ARule 144@); or (ii) such shares are transferred to an Aaffiliate@ (as defined in Rule 144) of the Borrower who agrees to sell or otherwise transfer the shares only in accordance with this Section 1.5 and who is an Accredited Investor (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).
1.6Effect of Certain Events.
(a)Effect of Merger, Consolidation, Etc. At the option of the Holder, the sale, conveyance or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower, the effectuation by the Borrower of a transaction or series of related transactions in which more than 50% of the voting power of the Borrower is disposed of, or the consolidation, merger or other business combination of the Borrower with or into any other Person (as defined below) or Persons when the Borrower is not the survivor shall be deemed to be an Event of Default (as defined in Article III) pursuant to which the Borrower shall be required to pay to the Holder upon the consummation of and as a condition to such transaction an amount equal to the Default Amount (as defined in Article III). APerson@ shall mean any individual, corporation, limited liability company, partnership, association, trust or other entity or organization.
(b)Adjustment Due to Merger, Consolidation, Etc. If, at any time when this Note is issued and outstanding and prior to conversion of all of the Note, there shall be any merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, or other similar event, as a result of which shares of Common Stock of the Borrower shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of another class or classes of stock or securities of the Borrower or another entity, or in case of any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower other than in connection with a plan of complete liquidation of the Borrower, then the Holder of this Note shall thereafter have the right to receive upon conversion of this Note, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore issuable upon conversion, such stock, securities or assets which the Holder would have been entitled to receive in such transaction had this Note been converted in full immediately prior to such transaction (without regard to any limitations on conversion set forth herein), and in any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Note to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustment of the Conversion Price and of the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Note) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be practicable in relation to any securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the conversion hereof. The Borrower shall not affect any transaction described in this Section 1.6(b) unless (a) it first gives, to the extent practicable, ten (10) days prior written notice (but in any event at least five (5) days prior written notice) of the record date of the special meeting of shareholders to approve, or if there is no such record date, the consummation of, such merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar event or sale of assets (during which time the Holder shall be entitled to convert this Note) and (b) the resulting successor or acquiring entity (if not the Borrower) assumes by written instrument the obligations of this Note. The above provisions shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or share exchanges.
(c)Adjustment Due to Distribution. If the Borrower shall declare or make any distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Common Stock as a dividend, stock repurchase, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including any dividend or distribution to the Borrower=s shareholders in cash or shares (or rights to acquire shares) of capital stock of a subsidiary (i.e., a spin-off)) (a ADistribution@), then the Holder of this Note shall be entitled, upon any conversion of this Note after the date of record for determining shareholders entitled to such Distribution, to receive the amount of such assets which would have been payable to the Holder with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion had such Holder been the holder of such shares of Common Stock on the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to such Distribution. [NOTE: This is not a ratchet provision, it simply prohibits the issuer from effecting a distribution of assets or stock while attempting to avoid conversion or payment of the note (i.e., in the event of an asset distribution which renders the company a shell company, without the foregoing language, although it would be a default, the note holder would be left with little other remedies to attempt to be repaid from the spin off entity). Note that the language does not change the conversion price formula.]
1.7Prepayment. This Note may be prepaid at any time without penalty. The Holder=s conversion rights herein shall not be affected in any way until the Note is fully paid (funds received by the Holder).
ARTICLE II. CERTAIN COVENANTS
2.1Sale of Assets. So long as the Borrower shall have any obligation under this Note, the Borrower shall not, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any significant portion of its assets outside the ordinary course of business.

If any of the following events of default (each, an AEvent of Default@) shall occur:
3.1Failure to Pay Principal and Interest. The Borrower fails to pay the principal hereof or interest thereon when due on this Note, whether at maturity or upon acceleration and such breach continues for a period of five (5) days after written notice from the Holder.

It is an obligation of the Borrower to remain current in its obligations to its transfer agent. It shall be an event of
default of this Note, if a conversion of this Note is delayed, hindered or frustrated due to a balance owed by the Borrower to its transfer agent. If at the option of the Holder, the Holder advances any funds to the Borrower=s transfer agent in order to process a conversion, such advanced funds shall be paid by the Borrower to the Holder within forty-eight (48) hours of a demand from the Holder.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note or the other related or companion documents, a breach or default by the Borrower of any covenant or other term or condition contained in any of the Other Agreements, after the passage of all applicable notice and cure or grace periods, shall, at the option of the Holder, be considered a default under this Note and the Other Agreements, in which event the Holder shall be entitled (but in no event required) to apply all rights and remedies of the Holder under the terms of this Note and the Other Agreements by reason of a default under said Other Agreement or hereunder. AOther Agreements@ means, collectively, all agreements and instruments between, among or by: (1) the Borrower, and, or for the benefit of, (2) the Holder and any affiliate of the Holder, including, without limitation, promissory notes; provided, however, the term AOther Agreements@ shall not include the related or companion documents to this Note.

Re:Offering Statement on Form 1-A
Gentlemen:
We have been requested by Software Effective Solutions, Inc., a Louisiana corporation (the “Company”), to furnish you with our opinion as to the matters hereinafter set forth in connection with its offering statement on Form 1-A , including Post-Qualification Amendment No. 1 thereto (collectively, the “Offering Statement”), relating to the qualification of shares of the Company’s $0.001 par value common stock (the “Common Stock”) under Regulation A promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Specifically, this opinion relates to 150,000,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Offered Shares”) to be offered by the Company.
In connection with this opinion, we have examined the Offering Statement, the Company’s Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws (each as amended to date), copies of the records of corporate proceedings of the Company and such other documents as we have deemed necessary to enable us to render the opinion hereinafter expressed.
For purposes of this opinion, we have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies and the authenticity of the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies. We have also assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons, the genuineness of the signatures of persons signing all documents in connection with which this opinion is rendered, the authority of such persons signing on behalf of the parties thereto other than the Company and the due authorization, execution and delivery of all documents by the parties thereto other than the Company. We have not independently established or verified any facts relevant to the opinions expressed herein, but have relied upon statements and representations of officers and other representatives of the Company and others.
Based upon and subject to the foregoing qualifications, assumptions and limitations and the further limitations set forth below, we are of the opinion that the 150,000,000 Offered Shares being offered by the Company will, when issued in accordance with the terms set forth in the Offering Statement, be legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock of the Company.
Our opinions expressed above are subject to the qualification that we express no opinion as to the applicability of, compliance with, or effect of any laws except the Louisiana Business Corporation Act (including the statutory provisions and reported judicial decisions interpreting the foregoing).
We hereby consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Offering Statement and to the reference to our name under the caption “Legal Matters” in the Offering Statement and in the offering circular included in the Offering Statement. We confirm that, as of the date hereof, we own no shares of the Company’s common stock, nor any other securities of the Company.
Sincerely,
/s/ Newlan Law Firm, PLLC
