E-Waste Systems, Inc. and Subsidiaries
NOTE 1 - BACKGROUND INFORMATION
 
Organization and Business
 
We were incorporated on December 19, 2008 in the State of Nevada.  Our wholly owned subsidiary, E-Waste Systems (UK) Ltd. was founded in January 2011 for the purpose of implementing our business strategy and has had limited operations. We acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of EWSO on October 14, 2011. On September 20, 2012, certain of the assets and business of EWSO were physically transferred to Two Fat Greek, LLC.

Surf Investments, Ltd. (Surf)

On June 25, 2013, the Company entered into a binding agreement to acquire 100% of the shares of Surf Investments, Ltd, ("Surf") a California company in the mobile computing and e-waste recycling business. The Company acquired Surf because of it e-waste certifications in the state of California and the access to customers that will benefit the Company in expanding its sales and services. Consideration paid was the assumption of liabilities of $222,928 and the issuance of 223 shares of Series A Preferred Stock valued at $27,256 for a total consideration of $250,184. Results of operations are from the date of acquisition through the end of the period. Fair values of assets and liabilities acquired are estimates of management and the Company is currently in the process of obtaining a third-party valuation on such assets and liabilities.

E-Waste Systems Cincinnati Inc. (EWS-C)

E-Waste Systems Cincinnati Inc. (EWS-C) was formed as a wholly owned subsidiary on November 16, 2013 to acquire certain debt from Fifth Third Bank secured by the assets of WWS Associates d/b/a 2TRG.  The transaction for the purchase of the debt was concluded in December of 2013. Subsequent to the acquisition of the debt, the obligors surrendered the collateral to the Company and EWS-C began operations with operations in Ohio and New York.


NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred net losses of $9,339,477 and $1,746,822 during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Cash on hand will not be sufficient to cover debt repayments scheduled as of June 30, 2014, and operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements for at least twelve months from the consolidated balance sheet date. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had working capital deficits of $5,897,145 and $3,253,407, respectively. In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plan is to seek equity and/or debt financing. However, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.
 
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
 
NOTE 3 - RESTATEMENT

On March 26, 2013, EWSI entered into a set of agreements with XuFu (Shanghai) Co, Ltd, (“XuFu”) a company incorporated in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) and formerly known as Yazhuo.  The interests in XuFu were initially consolidated on the Company’s interim financial statements as a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) as of March 31, 2013, June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2013.  Upon further analysis, prior to filing its 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company concluded that consolidation was not proper. The VIE agreements and all corresponding Lease and Operating Agreements and Management Agreements were terminated by action of the Board of Directors.  Discussions with potential targets to the extent deemed prudent by management are on-going and new agreements will be executed as and when deemed to be in the best interest of the Company. Accordingly, the Company has not consolidated Xufu in the quarterly statements for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

NOTE 4 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation
 
The Financial Statements and related disclosures have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.  The Financial Statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”).

Use of estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at June 30, 2014, and for all periods presented herein, have been made.
 
Beneficial Conversion Feature
 
Costs incurred with parties who are providing financing, which include the intrinsic value of beneficial conversion features associated with the underlying debt, are reflected as a debt discount.  These discounts are generally amortized over the life of the related debt.  In certain circumstances, the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature may be greater than the proceeds associated to the convertible instrument.  In such situations, the amount of the discount assigned to the beneficial conversion feature is limited to the amount of the proceeds allocated to the convertible instrument.
 
The Company evaluates and accounts for conversion options embedded in its convertible instruments in accordance with professional standards for “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”.

Professional standards generally provides three criteria that, if met, require companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments. These three criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument. Professional standards also provide an exception to this rule when the host instrument is deemed to be conventional as defined under professional standards as “The Meaning of Conventional Convertible Debt Instrument”.

The Company accounts for convertible instruments (when it has determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments) in accordance with professional standards when “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features,” as those professional standards pertain to “Certain Convertible Instruments.” Accordingly, the Company records, when necessary, discounts to convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. Debt discounts under these arrangements are amortized over the term of the related debt to their earliest date of redemption. The Company also records when necessary deemed dividends for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in preferred shares based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note.

The Company evaluated the conversion option embedded in the Series A Preferred Stock and determined, in accordance with the provisions of these statements, that such conversion option does not meet the criteria requiring bifurcation of these instruments. The characteristics of the common stock that is issuable upon a holder’s exercise of the conversion option embedded in the convertible preferred stock are deemed to be clearly and closely related to the characteristics of the preferred shares. Additionally, the Company’s conversion options, if free standing, would not be considered derivatives subject to the accounting guidelines prescribed in accordance with professional standards.

ASC 815-40 provides that, among other things, generally, if an event is not within the entity’s control could require net cash settlement, then the contract shall be classified as an asset or a liability.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
For the purpose of the financial statements cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments with maturity of three months or less. Cash and cash equivalents were $96,962 and $145,778 at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. See Note 6 – Restricted Cash Held in Escrow
 
Cash Flows Reporting
 
The Company follows ASC 230, Statement of Cash Flows, for cash flows reporting, classifies cash receipts and payments according to whether they stem from operating, investing, or financing activities and provides definitions of each category, and uses the indirect or reconciliation method (“Indirect method”) as defined by ASC 230, Statement of Cash Flows, to report net cash flow from operating activities by adjusting net income to reconcile it to net cash flow from operating activities by removing the effects of (a) all deferrals of past operating cash receipts and payments and all accruals of expected future operating cash receipts and payments and (b) all items that are included in net income that do not affect operating cash receipts and payments. The Company reports the reporting currency equivalent of foreign currency cash flows, using the current exchange rate at the time of the cash flows and the effect of exchange rate changes on cash held in foreign currencies is reported as a separate item in the reconciliation of beginning and ending balances of cash and cash equivalents and separately provides information about investing and financing activities not resulting in cash receipts or payments in the period.

Commitments and Contingencies
 
The Company follows ASC 440, Commitments and ASC 450, Loss Contingencies, to report accounting for commitments and contingencies. 
 
Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated.  There were no commitments or contingencies at June 30, 2014 and 2013.
 
Earnings per Share
 
The Company computes basic and diluted earnings per share amounts in accordance with ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options and other commitments to issue common stock were exercised or equity awards vest resulting in the issuance of common stock that could share in the earnings of the Company. 
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the effect of common stock equivalents has been excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive.
 
The Company does not have any potentially dilutive instruments as of June 30, 2014 and, thus, anti-dilution issues are not applicable.
 
At June 30, 2014, there were no stock options.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The Company follows 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 and paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about 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 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.
 
Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.
 
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.  If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.
 
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses and loans payable approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments. Loans payable are recorded at their issue value.
  
Transactions involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm's-length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive, free-market dealings may not exist. Representations about transactions with related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related party transactions were consummated on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm's-length transactions unless such representations can be substantiated.
 
It is not, however, practical to determine the fair value of advances from stockholders, if any, due to their related party nature.
 
The following table presents assets and liabilities that are measured and recognized at fair value as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, on a recurring basis:

Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation was calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, ranging from three to seven years.  Expenditures for additions and improvements were capitalized, while repairs and maintenance costs were expensed as incurred.  The cost and related accumulated depreciation of property and equipment sold or otherwise disposed of were removed from the accounts and any gain or loss was recorded in the year of disposal.  Depreciation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was $30,205 and $0, respectively.
 
Related Parties
 
The Company follows ASC 850, Related Party Disclosures, for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.  Related party transactions for the six months ending June 30, 2014 and 2013 are reflected in Note 9.
 
Stock Based Compensation

ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all share-based payment transactions in which employee services are acquired.  Transactions include incurring liabilities, or issuing or offering to issue shares, options, and other equity instruments such as employee stock ownership plans and stock appreciation rights.  Share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized as compensation expense in the financial statements based on their fair values. That expense is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period).

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of ASC 505-50, Equity – based Payments to Non-Employees.  Measurement of share-based payment transactions with non-employees is based on the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable:  (a) the goods or services received; or (b) the equity instruments issued.  The fair value of the share-based payment transaction is determined at the earlier of performance commitment date or performance completion date.  
 
Under our stock compensation plan (the “Stock Plan”) which is registered under Form S8, or through newly issued restricted common stock, we pay qualified contractors and advisors common shares in lieu of compensation for services provided including business development, management, technology development, consulting, legal services and accounting services.
 
Share-based expense for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was $0 and $0, respectively.
 
Reclassifications

Certain balances in previously issued financial statements have been reclassified to be consistent with current period presentation.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2014, include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary E-Waste Systems Cincinnati, Inc. (“EWS-C”), and Surf Investments, Ltd. (“Surf”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Concentration of Credit Risk

SURF

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, Customer A accounted for 24.6% of the Surf’s net revenue and 16.63% of Surf’s total accounts receivable. Customer B accounted for approximately 19.87% of Surf’s net revenue and 31.1% of Surf’s total accounts receivable for the six months June 30, 2014. Customer C accounted for approximately 15.9% of the Company’s net revenue.  Customer D accounted for 13.0% of Surf’s net revenue for the six months ended June 30 2014.  Customer E accounted for 14.03% of Surf’s total accounts receivable for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

EWS-C

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, Customer A accounted for 76.84% of EWS-C’s net revenue.  Customer B accounted for approximately 21.04% of EWS-C’s net revenue.  Customer C accounted for approximately 13.36% of EWS-C’s accounts receivable for the six months ended June 30, 2014.
 
Accounts Receivable

Trade accounts receivables are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. Amounts collected on trade accounts receivables are included in net cash provided by operating activities in the consolidated cash flow statements. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses inherent in its accounts receivable portfolio. In establishing the required allowance, management considers a number of factors, including historical losses, current receivables aging reports, the counter party’s current ability to pay its obligation to the Company, and existing industry. The Company reviews its allowances every month. Past due invoices over 90 days that exceed a specific amount are reviewed individually for collectability. During the six months ended June 30, 2014 and the year ended  December 31, 2013, allowance for doubtful accounts was $0 and $2,700, respectively. The Company does not have any off-balance sheet exposure related to its customers.

Inventory

Inventory is valued at the lower of cost (on a first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis) or market. The Company purchases its inventory direct from the manufacturer and includes these costs in its Cost of Sales as well as its packaging supplies, shipping, freight and duties costs. The Company evaluates inventory for items that have become obsolete. An allowance for obsolescence is established for items that are deemed not able to be sold. Currently, there are no obsolete inventory items.

Revenue Recognition

The Company applies the provisions of ASC 605, which provides guidance on the recognition, presentation and disclosure of revenue in financial statements. ASC 605 outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provides guidance for disclosure related to revenue recognition policies. In general, the Company recognizes revenue related to goods and services provided when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (iii) the fee is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.

Revenue from Sales of Brand Licenses

During the year, the Company sold brand licenses to customers which allow the promotion of business under the E-Waste Systems brand names in selected jurisdictions. The license agreements call for an initial payment plus a percentage of revenues generated under the brand during term of the license agreement.

Marketable Securities

The Company reports its investments in marketable securities under the provisions of ASC 320, Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. All the Company’s marketable securities are classified as “available for sale” securities, as the market value of the securities are readily determinable and the Company’s intention upon obtaining the securities was neither to sell them in the short term nor to hold them to maturity. Pursuant to ASC 320, securities which are classified as “available for sale” are recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet at fair market value, with the resulting unrealized holding gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported as other comprehensive income until realized.
 
The Company evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a yearly basis, and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to the length of time and amount of the loss relative to cost, the nature and financial condition of the issuer and the ability and intent of the Company to hold the investment for a time sufficient to allow any anticipated recovery in fair value. Pursuant to ASC 320-5, other than temporary impairment losses are recorded as impairment expense in the statement of operations during the period in which the impairment is determined.  The Company did not record an impairment expense for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are recorded at the costs associated with the asset. These assets are then amortized using the straight-line method over the remaining useful economic life of each asset type. At each consolidated balance sheet date, the unamortized capitalized cost of the each intangible asset will be compared to the net realizable value of that asset. If the unamortized capitalized cost exceeds the net realizable value, then the difference will be written down to the net realizable value. Intangible assets consist of customer lists and certification.  Amortization of intangible assets for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $43,188. The Company did not record an impairment expense as of June 30, 2014.
 
Cost Method Investments

Cost method investments are recorded at the costs associated with the investments in accordance with ASC 325-20. The costs are valued at the most readily available source of value with the various aspects of the transaction.  The investments are presented at the cost.  No returns are recorded on the investments unless dividends are received.

Capitalized Software Development Costs

The Company applies the provisions of ASC 985-20, which provides guidance on the recognition, presentation and disclosure of software development costs in financial statements. The costs associated with developing the software is capitalized and will be amortized using the straight-line method over the economic life of the software. At each consolidated balance sheet date, the unamortized capitalized cost of the software product will be compared to the net realizable value of that product. If the unamortized capitalized cost exceeds the net realizable value, then the difference will be written down to the net realizable value.

Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets include equipment and intangible assets other than those with indefinite lives. We assess the carrying value of our long-lived asset groups when indicators of impairment exist and recognize an impairment loss when the carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable from the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. Indicators of impairment include significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results, significant changes in our use of the assets or in our business strategy, loss of or changes in customer relationships and significant negative industry or economic trends. When indications of impairment arise for a particular asset or group of assets, we assess the future recoverability of the carrying value of the asset (or asset group) based on an undiscounted cash flow analysis. If carrying value exceeds projected, net, undiscounted cash flows, an additional analysis is performed to determine the fair value of the asset (or asset group), typically a discounted cash flow analysis, and an impairment charge is recorded for the excess of carrying value over fair value.

Property and equipment are recorded at historical cost less accumulated depreciation, unless impaired. Depreciation is charged to operations over the estimated useful lives of the assets using the straight-line. Upon retirement or sale, the historical cost of assets disposed of and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred.  Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are as follows:

Automobiles and Equipment
5 years
Computer Software
3 years
Leasehold Improvements
3 years

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired in business combinations. ASC 350-30-35-4 requires that goodwill be tested for impairment at the reporting unit level (operating segment or one level below an operating segment) on an annual basis and between annual tests when circumstances indicate that the recoverability of the carrying amount of goodwill may be in doubt. Application of the goodwill impairment test requires judgment, including the identification of reporting units, assigning assets and liabilities to reporting units, assigning goodwill to reporting units, and determining the fair value. Significant judgments required to estimate the fair value of reporting units include estimating future cash flows, determining appropriate discount rates and other assumptions. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value and/or goodwill impairment for each reporting unit.  

Foreign Currency

Monetary assets and liabilities of the Company's foreign operations are translated into U.S. dollars at period-end exchange rates.  Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated at historical rates. Net exchange gains or losses resulting from such translation are excluded from net loss but are included in comprehensive income and accumulated in a separate component of stockholders' equity. Income and expenses are translated at weighted average exchange rates for the period. Foreign currency transactions denominated in a currency other than the US Dollar, which is the Company’s functional currency, are included in determining net income for the period.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

Comprehensive loss includes net loss as currently reported under U.S. GAAP and other comprehensive loss. Other comprehensive loss considers the effects of additional economic events, such as foreign currency translation adjustments, that are not required to be recorded in determining net loss, but rather are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ deficit.

Income Taxes

Deferred income tax assets as of June 30, 2014, of $1,112 resulting from net operating losses and future amortization deductions, have been fully offset by valuation allowances.  The valuation allowances have been established equal to the full amounts of the deferred tax assets, as the Company is not assured that it is more likely than not that these benefits will be realized.

Reconciliation between the statutory United States corporate income tax rate (35%) and the effective income tax rates based on continuing operations is as follows:

At June 30, 2014, the Company has available net operating losses of approximately $6,840,000 which may be carried forward to apply against future taxable income. These losses will expire in 2032. Deferred tax assets related to these losses have not been recorded due to uncertainty regarding their utilization.

The provisions of ASC 740 require companies to recognize in their condensed consolidated financial statements the impact of a tax position if that position is more likely than not to be sustained upon audit, based upon the technical merits of the position. ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the condensed consolidated financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods and disclosure.

Management does not believe that the Company has any material uncertain tax positions requiring recognition or measurement in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740. Accordingly, the adoption of these provisions of ASC 740 did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company’s policy is to record interest and penalties on uncertain tax positions, if any, as income tax expense.

The Company has not filed its applicable Federal and State tax returns for the year ended December 31, 2012 and may be subject to penalties for noncompliance. The Company has filed an extension for the 2013 filings.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Except for rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws and a limited number of grandfathered standards, the FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ (“ASC”) is the sole source of authoritative GAAP literature recognized by the FASB and applicable to the Company.
 
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)," which is the new comprehensive revenue recognition standard that will supersede all existing revenue recognition guidance under GAAP. The standard's core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted. Entities will have the option of using either a full retrospective approach or a modified approach to adopt the guidance in the ASU. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.
 
In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, "Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period." This ASU provides more explicit guidance for treating share-based payment awards that require a specific performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period as a performance condition. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 11 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITY

Effective July 31, 2009, the Company adopted ASC 815 which defines determining whether an instrument (or embedded feature) is solely indexed to an entity’s own stock. The conversion terms of the convertible notes executed on June 3, 2013, June 11, 2013, July 15, 2013, August 14, 2013, August 27, 2013 and September 26, 2013 (total unpaid face value of $170,278) are subject to “reset” provisions in the event the Company subsequently issues common stock, stock warrants, stock options or convertible debt with a stock price, exercise price or conversion price lower than conversion price of these notes. If these provisions are triggered, the conversion price of the note will be reduced. As a result, the Company has determined that the conversion features imbedded in the notes are not considered to be solely indexed to the Company’s own stock and are therefore not afforded equity treatment. In accordance with ASC 815, the Company has bi-furcated the conversion feature of the note and recorded a derivative liability.

The Company accounted for the detachable warrants included with the convertible notes as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815, as the warrants are subject to anti-dilution protection and could result in them being converted to a variable number of the Company’s common shares. The Company determined the value of the derivate feature of the warrants at the relevant commitment dates to total $464,456 utilizing a Black-Scholes valuation model as of June 30, 2014.

ASC 815 requires Company management to assess the fair market value of certain derivatives at each reporting period and recognize any change in the fair market value as another income or expense item. The Company’s only asset or liability measured at fair value on a recurring basis is its derivative liability associated with convertible notes payable.

At origination, the Company valued the conversion features using the following assumptions: dividend yield of zero, years to maturity of 0.75 to 1.00 year, average risk free rates over between 0.11 and 0.18 percent, and annualized volatility of between 5 and 230 percent to record derivative liabilities of $752,749. At December 31, 2013, the Company revalued the conversion features using the following assumptions: dividend yield of zero, years to maturity of between 0.29 and 0.70 years, a risk free rate of 0.13%, and annualized volatility of 232.29% and determined that, during the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company’s derivative liability increased by $404,335 to $465,880. The Company recognized a corresponding loss on derivative liability in conjunction with this revaluation.

Company Overview

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 19, 2008.  In May 2011, we changed our name to “E-Waste Systems, Inc.” to reflect the strategy we are now operating.

2014 Operations
 
Acquisitions
 
The Company is actively seeking strategic acquisitions to expand its footprint world-wide and to add core capabilities, expand critical mass and provide and expanded pool of talent.

Every potential acquisition is evaluation based upon three criteria:
 
●  
Strategic: Synergies, Differentiation and Compliance;
●  
Financial: Financial Strength, P/E, Growth;

●  
Management: Vision, Culture, Quality.
 
EWSI completed two transactions in US during 2013: Surf/CPU and 2TRG.  Surf is located in Los Angeles, California. Surf was rebranded EW California but is doing business also through the former name to maintain a market position with the existing customers.  The management, as well as all the employees (7 people), remained on board.  In the first year of business under EWSI’s wings, Surf implemented and expanded its operations to profitability and is still growing. The goals for 2014 are to double the revenues as well as the profits and expand furthermore the business to new areas of interest.  The transaction put in place with 2TRG involved the acquisition of the assets from the locations in Cincinnati and Geneva. A newly branded company was created to run the operations, E-Waste Cincinnati, Inc. (a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company). A plan for hiring new employees and business developers is being implemented. In March took place the grand opening of the facility to start the business in new working space in the Cincinnati area. The operation has been focused on establishing its presence in the market and on obtaining key certifications while building an organization.  Its new facility will be the showpiece plant implementing the latest and most efficient technologies.  Goals established for 2014 are premised on (1) creating an operational team to expand the operations both utilizing the existing facilities and other strategic locations (2) identifying strategic partners and establishing relationships through contract or acquisition to bring the locations under the EWS-C umbrella and (3) obtaining new contracts to capitalize the full processing volume of 750 million pounds annually and growing of the revenues.

EUROPE
 
A major refurbisher currently working with the Company is the target for 2014 in Europe. This acquisition brings the footprint of EWSI in the old continent. The term-sheet for the transaction has been delivered and if agreed the process is expected to be completed by the second half of the year. Due to the high potential of this operation and to complete the reverse logistic process, an ePlant is already considered as part of the first steps to make this location the show piece for the European market. The Company is in discussion with another party that is fully funded to expand the scope of the project and move more quickly to the implementation phase.

Other targets are under consideration.

ASIA, AFRICA, OCEANIA, LATIN AMERICA
 
While Teaming Agreements and Joint Ventures are already in place and more are to come, no specific target has been engaged for acquisition purposes but it is not excluded that during the progress of the 2014 new possibilities may develop.

Subsidiary
 
2013 has seen the birth of few different subsidiary that can be divided into operative and commercial units.  The operative units such as EW California and EW Cincinnati are more involved into directly recycling/refurbishing operations. The other ones such as EW Ltd, EWS Italy, EW Mediterranean and EWS Bharat are focused on the commercial expansion of the business through new ventures and of the brand through licenses.
 
ePlants and Technologies
 
Expectations for 2014 are of three operational ePlant in three different continents by the end of the year. While the ePlants in Cincinnati and Geneva will be upgrades of existing technology, those will be new facilities using the best and most efficient technologies delivered on EWSI specs. A fully deployed ePlant can generate an annualized revenue stream of over $9M with basic working shifts and up to $36M for a continuous operation. The recent agreement with Chinese Technology firm Loyalty provides and opportunity to implement a fully functional ePlant quickly and efficiently with a goal to enable implementation in just 6 months from the initial order of the hardware. 

EWSI is developing, with its technology partners, miniaturized recycling equipment to be provided to local partners in order to achieve a more efficient transportation.  Further efforts have been put into expanding implementation of equipment for recycling of air conditioning hardware and refrigerators. Those two specific home appliances are becoming a sensitively big number in the ewaste stream and providing a complete recycling solution, including insulation.  Recent developments with a US R&D firm brought into signing a letter of interest to test a Rare Earths Elements (“REE”) sorting technology into one of the EWSI’s operational sites in the US.  REE sorting is one of the last step into achieving the 100% no-landfill policy to which EWSI has voluntarily committed.

L&M Agreements
 
EWSI has worked through several strategies to enter into the market in China and other markets around the world where significant potential exists  and the Company is making a significant investment in that market justified by the magnitude of the opportunity.  As part of that activity, EWSI entered into a series of agreements to operate business activities utilizing leased assets and personnel in targeted business units. The strategy behind the utilization of this structure was to enable the Company to consider candidates for strategic acquisition without significant risk.  As expected, only the very best of the opportunities will warrant the resources and steps needed to move to the next level.  This business model is becoming more and more popular since most of the companies in China do not support their accounting with auditing. The commercial strategy behind this is that a healthy financial audited company has more possibilities to raise capital or become target for an acquisition.
 
 
 
 
- 35 -


 
 
The steps for evaluating business opportunities where the financial statements are not up to our standards or the controls do not meet our rigid guidelines involved starting with establishing very limited risk/commitment through our eIncubator division.  An eIncubator company can establish itself as a more definite potential to join the E-Waste family through allowing Company staff to comprehensively observe operations and dig into the targets books and records.

Businesses that have proven to be viable targets through either the eVolve agreement process or other candidates that generally meet our standards and are susceptible to more comprehensive confirmation of historical  results of operations and profitability will be considered for our next level of commitment through agreements to bring them under our eVolve Division.  eVolve contracts involve the Company installing personnel in the operations, establishing financial protocols, controls record-keeping and reporting to enable the target to come up to the standards required for becoming part of the eWaste group of companies.  The ability to provide two years of audited financial statements and similar metrics are required to be considered for inclusion in the E-Waste group of companies including strategic alliances.

History and background

Mission Statement

Create a market-leading, integrated business group in the emerging electronic waste (“ewaste”) and reverse logistics industry, in the advisory for compliant management and in the development of new commercial and technological ventures by offering customers global, seamless, and expanded custom services.

Company History

After 5 years of research, planning and operating various companies in the industry, Martin Nielson founded E-Waste Systems as a wholly owned subsidiary of a US public company shell, specifically to grow by completing a series of acquisitions as its basis for operations. EWSI has three operating units in US, UK and China, corresponding to the first geographies in which EWSI is completing acquisitions.

Financial Strategy

Execution of the Company’s Business Plan requires a foundation capable of sustaining rapid growth.  This foundation consists of a global brand, proprietary technologies and substantial revenues.  In addition, the Company’s financial plan needs to support the potential for very rapid quarter to quarter growth over the next few years, which could be 50% or more.

Key Elements
 
The total value of our Company’s economic resources is capital invested in our equity plus debt we assume. The Company must make efficient use of a combination of debt and equity in our operations to fuel growth.  Equity is the portion of our Company’s economic resources that our shareholders own and debt will be used to leverage equity by using borrowed money to obtain additional economic resources.  Leverage, while increasing investment returns, must be used wisely. Accordingly, the basic elements of our financing strategy are the following:

1.  
Balance Sheet Strengthening.  We will strengthen our balance sheet and the balance sheets of our subsidiaries and key affiliates by acquiring tangible and intellectual assets.  We will also convert certain liabilities into equity, eliminate debt of high burden, and avoid both short term liabilities that cannot be managed and unsustainable long term liabilities.

2.  
Financing for ePlant™ and other Technology.  We will seek friendly third party financing for new capital equipment, such as ePlant™ and other eWaste™ systems in order to improve the operating performance of our business units. We will invest in developing our proprietary technologies using equity wherever possible.

3.  
Financing for our Subsidiaries and Affiliates.  The growth of our subsidiaries and affiliates directly contributes to our company growth. We will provide financial support to our subsidiaries and affiliates in a manner in which the investment can lead to superior returns and within manageable and acceptable risks.

 

 
 
- 36 -

 
 

 

4.  
Manage a Sustainable Capitalization Structure.   It is in the best interest of the Company to have a high market capitalization, higher share prices, and strong liquidity to obtain sufficient capital for our growth and for acquisitions.  Maintaining a balance of sensible debt alongside a robust market capitalization is targeted.
 
5.  
Use of Performance-Based Incentives.  The Company believes in creating an atmosphere that encourages and motivates our people to out-perform the competition.  Disciplined and hard-working management, professionals, and other individuals can help us meet or exceed our company’s objectives and are fundamental to the growth we seek.  Incentive compensation plans tied to equity will be a key element of our compensation packages and our officers must set the example by accepting equity as a primary component of their compensation.
 
6.  
Equity as Growth Capital. Preferred shares will be increasingly used to increase asset values, to minimize current dilution of common stock and to enhance overall shareholder equity while providing for attractive means to maintain sensible voting and conversion features.  Alongside preferred equity instruments, registered shares will be used to compensate qualified individuals to grow the Company.  Wherever possible, we will also use equity as a currency for acquisitions.
 
7.  
Debt Financing.  Debt can leverage our equity and capital.  We will selectively obtain debt financing, even paying premium interest rates if necessary so that we can avoid toxic convertible debt.  And, we will establish plans to buy out potentially toxic liabilities by using loyal and long term investors.
 
8.  
Investor Relations, Communication and Awareness.  We intend to have a strong and comprehensive investor communications plan using regular press releases, information 8K filings with the SEC, social media programs, frequent website updates; and an increasing use of CEO and management interviews and media relations programs.  These are all designed to make the investing public and our other constituents fully aware our plans, accomplishments, and developments as they occur.
 
9.  
Secondary Public Offering and Upgrade Listing. The Company will seek to raise capital from a public offering to fuel its growth and, at the proper time, consider migration to a national exchange like NASDAQ or NYSE to have access to higher quality and quantity of capital to fuel its desire for expansive growth.

Business Strategy for 2014

The EWSI strategy for growth is premised upon the following key elements:

●  
Market Leading Brand: The market does not have a leading e-waste brand, especially not at the global level.  Our brand is unique and is promoted aggressively and globally to attain maximum awareness aligned with the highest compliance standards in the world (including those of the WEEE directive). Our commitment is to achieve and continuously enhance the best brand in the industry.

●  
Global Reach: EWSI recognizes that e-waste is a global problem that requires a global solution.  We are therefore committed to developing and managing a worldwide presence, with primary focus on the Americas, Europe, and Asia. EWSI now has a presence in the USA, UK, Australia, China, India, Mexico and the Caribbean.

●  
Proprietary Technology: We are committed to developing and deploying a portfolio of proprietary engineering and technologies that can extract maximum value from end-of-life assets while minimizing environmental impact. This includes software solutions as well as high-end separation, enrichment, and processing technologies applied to component materials and output streams such as plastics, precious metals, glass, carbon, and bio-materials.

●  
Franchising and Affiliations: We have and will continue to develop affiliations with quality companies that share our business and environmental principles.  Franchising and affiliation are among the quickest and most capital efficient ways to expand the geographic and service coverage of EWSI.

 
 

 
 
- 37 -

 

 

●  
Management Services: We offer our expertise in professional management practices and modern systems to our expanding affiliate network. The e-waste industry is highly fragmented with need for high level management.  Simultaneously, compliance and certification across all platforms are critical issues as national and international regulations expand and become enforced.

●  
Joint Ventures and Acquisitions: Carefully selected acquisitions and joint ventures in the Americas, Europe, and Asia remain part of our strategy. The acquisitions will be done opportunistically in a separate division in order to focus EWSI management on its main task of building its eWaste™ brand globally. Each joint venture and acquisition must be a profit center with local brand value, an experienced management team, and solid commercial relationships with clients of strategic interest to EWSI.

Our Geneva NY location will be standardizing by May 2014. Our goal for 2014 is to acquire or team with 3 other locations by the end of the year to achieve not less than five locations with centralized management to achieve maximum profitability.

Factors impacting EWSI’s Consolidated Results of Operations

The principal factors that impact our past and future results of operations include:

Availability of feedstock volumes. We do not have any formal contracts with suppliers of feedstock batches. There is no mechanism in place that effectively underpins our access to a regular, predictable volume of feedstock each week/month. Our revenue streams are all dependent on batches of used electronic equipment being available to fuel the repair, refurbishment and spare parts recovery processes from which the revenue base is derived.
 
Demand for second-hand electronic equipment. Our revenue, operating results and investment in working capital depend on the level of demand for second-hand electronic equipment that has been repaired and/or refurbished together with a requirement for recovered spare parts that can be used in repair and refurbishment operations.  We will usually have concluded an agreement or be in advanced negotiations to sell our repaired and refurbished units before we commit to buying feedstock batches. This careful management of the profits and cash cycles will be disrupted if demand for used electronics were to sharply decline for any reason including businesses and consumers curtailing their investment in new equipment in response to changes in economic conditions.

Market prices for certain commodities. Our business is affected by changes in the market prices of certain traded commodities, notably those precious metals that are used to manufacture key components found in electronic equipment today. Movements in the prices at which these commodities are traded influences the prices at various stages of the reverse supply chain for electronic goods, including the prices that we negotiate to acquire our feedstock volumes and the value we are able to extract from the residual scrap remaining at the end of our repair, refurbishment and spare parts recovery processes.
 
 

 

 
- 39 -


 

 
Regulatory changes. The businesses that derive their revenue and profits from handling electronic waste in the United States are exposed to increasingly pervasive legislative and regulatory regimes at both Federal and State levels of government. Each time the legal or regulatory backcloth changes it is likely that incremental cost is added to the reverse supply chain, which in turn implies that all participants in that supply chain will observe an increase in their operating cost base, which depending on their leverage may, or may not, be capable of being passed on downstream.

General and administrative costs. Our business is still very young and at the beginning of its pursuit of organic and external growth. In order to execute on any strategy for growth, we expect to have to further increase its general and administrative overheads cost base. Our results from operations will be adversely impacted if these additional overhead costs are incurred before the growth in revenue is received.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2014, our consolidated balance sheet presented total current assets of $544,446 and total current liabilities of $6,441,591, which resulted in a working capital deficit of $5,897,145.  
 
To date, we have relied upon issuances of unsecured notes to finance our operations and help us meet our short-term obligations.  There is no assurance that we will be able to continue to issue notes to finance our short-term obligations.  Our present capital resources are insufficient to implement our business plan.  The operating expenses for the year will consist primarily of compensation for senior management, professional fees for the audit and legal work relating to our regulatory filings throughout the year, as well as transfer agent fees, travel and general office expenses.  Our current cash on hand is insufficient to make our planned expenditures and to pay for our general operating expenses over the next twelve months.  Accordingly, we must obtain additional financing in order to continue to implement our business plan during and beyond the next twelve months.
 
 

 
 
- 41 -

 
 

 

We are working on debt financing based upon our growth of available collateral and expanded operations and in addition, we anticipate that additional funding will be in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock.  We are currently seeking additional funding in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock, but cannot provide investors with any assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient funding from the sale of our common stock to implement our business plan. Additional equity financings could result in significant dilution to our stockholders.  In the absence of such financing, we will not be able to implement our business plan or pursue any acquisition.  If we are unable to raise additional capital in the near future, we will experience liquidity problems and management expects that we will need to curtail operations, liquidate assets, seek additional capital on less favorable terms and/or pursue other remedial measures.

Consolidated Cash Used in Operating Activities

Continuing operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2014 used cash of $986,107, which is a reflection of the corresponding period’s operating results.  Our consolidated net loss from continuing operations reported for the six months ended June 30, 2014 of $9,251,379 was the primary reason for our negative operating cash flow.  The impact of consolidated net loss from continuing operations on our consolidated operating cash flow was substantially offset by amortization in debt discount of $133,645, changes in derivative liability of $1,953,780, common stock issued for services of $824,207, stock based compensation of $1,626,792, preferred stock issued for services of $2,817,100, changes in accounts receivable, net of $(190,029), changes in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $418,114 and changes in accrued expenses, related party of $255,926.

Cash used in discontinued operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $88,098.

Consolidated Cash Used in Investing Activities

We had used cash totaling $230,450 for investing activities from continuing operations.  This consisted of $125,834 used to purchase equipment in our subsidiaries, and $104,616 used towards security deposits.

We did not use any cash for discontinued investing activities in 2014 or 2013.
 
Consolidated Cash from Financing Activities

We have financed our operations primarily from loans made to the Company.  Consolidated net cash flow provided by continuing financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $1,255,839.  This consisted of $1,158,975 in proceeds from convertible notes payable, $3,284 in advances from related parties, $12,965 in advances from others, and $153,000 in common stock issued for cash, all offset by principal payments towards convertible notes payable of $27,500, principal payments towards notes payable of $38,885, and principal payments towards convertible notes payable, related parties of $6,000.

We did not use any cash for discontinued financing activities in 2014 or 2013.

Going Concern

Our financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have not yet established an on-going source of revenues sufficient to cover our operating costs and allow us to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on us obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until we become profitable. If we are unable to obtain adequate capital, we could be forced to cease operations.
 
In order to continue as a going concern, we will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plan is to obtain such resources for us by obtaining capital from management and significant shareholders sufficient to meet our minimal operating expenses and seeking equity and/or debt financing. However management cannot provide any assurances that we will be successful in accomplishing any of our plans.
 
 

 
 
- 42 -




Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP. For a full description of our accounting policies as required by GAAP, refer to our condensed consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013, that are included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. We consider certain accounting policies to be critical to an understanding of our condensed consolidated financial statements because their application requires significant judgment and reliance on estimations of matters that are inherently uncertain. The specific risks related to these critical accounting policies are described in our condensed consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of June 30, 2014.  This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Martin Nielson.  Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2014, our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective, we are, however, still in the process of evaluating and implementing changes in our disclosure controls and procedures.  

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Secretary/Treasurer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting 

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, there have been no changes to our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Management has assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2014 based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. As a result of this assessment, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2013, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective. Our management identified the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, which are indicative of many small companies with limited staff to carry out administrative duties: (i) inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment; and (ii) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of both US GAAP and SEC guidelines.
 
 
 

 
 
- 43 -

 

 

We are taking steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal control over financial reporting. To remediate such weaknesses, we began the process of implementing the following changes (i) appoint additional qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation of duties and ineffective risk management; and (ii) adopt sufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting. The remediation efforts set out in (i) and (ii) are largely dependent upon our securing additional financing to cover the costs of implementing the changes required. If we are unsuccessful in securing such funds, remediation efforts may be adversely affected in a material manner.

The Company replaced its internal Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) with a contract with the The CFO Squad to provide a depth of capability and significant knowledge base to guide the Company.
 
Remediation of Material Weakness

We are unable to remedy our controls related to the inadequate segregation of duties and ineffective risk management until we receive financing to hire additional employees and upgrade both the applications and information technology environment that we make use of for financial reporting and control purposes.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls

Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will necessarily prevent all fraud and material error. An internal control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the internal control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

The Company or any subsidiary of the Company shall default in any of its obligations under any debenture, mortgage, credit agreement or other facility, indenture agreement, factoring agreement or other instrument under which there may be issued, or by which there may be secured or evidenced any indebtedness for borrowed money or money due under any long term leasing or factoring arrangement of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company in an amount exceeding $25,000, whether such indebtedness now exists or shall hereafter be created and such default shall result in such indebtedness becoming or being declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise become due and payable;

6.  
Any cessation of operations by the Company or if the Company discloses it is unable to pay its debts as such debts become due, provided, however, that any disclosure of the Company’s ability to continue as a “going concern” shall not be an admission that the Company is unable pay its debts as they become due;

7.  
The failure by the Company to maintain any and all assets which are necessary to conduct its business (whether now or in the future);

8.  
The restatement of any financial statements filed by the Company with the SEC for any date or period from two years prior to the date of this Agreement and until all amounts due to Redwood is no longer outstanding, if the result of such restatement would, by comparison to the unrestated financial statements, have constituted a material adverse effect on the rights of Redwood with respect to the Note, this Agreement or the Debt Purchase Agreement; or

9.  
The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) places a “chill” on the deposit of additional securities of the Company with DTC.

(d)            Remedies.  If the Company fails to perform hereunder by delivering shares of Common Stock or paying Principal and/or Interest within three (3) Business Days of said being due, the Company shall pay, for the first thirty (30) calendar days from the due date of said performance or payment, an amount equal to $1,000 per day, in cash, per day, payable immediately, as a reasonable late fee (the “Late Fee”).  Such Late Fee shall be in addition to any other damages and reasonable attorney fees and costs payable, to cover, on a non-accountable basis, the time, expense, efforts and or distress of Redwood causing Redwood to focus its management, advisors, and counselors on the matter of the Company failing to honor its written obligations, and said figure is deemed a reasonable liquidated damages provision and is not an election of remedy and is non-exclusive thereby allowing Redwood to pursue any and all rights and remedies set forth in this Agreement.
 
 
 

 
 
Page 3 of 13

 


If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, Principal, plus Interest and Late Fees and other amounts owing in respect thereof, shall become immediately due and payable in cash, provided, however, Redwood may elect any part thereof to be paid in shares of Common Stock as part of any conversion hereunder in which case such shares of Common Stock shall be due.

Redwood is not required to provide and the Company hereby waives any presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, and Redwood shall be permitted to, immediately and without expiration of any grace period, enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all other remedies available to it under applicable law. Such declaration may be rescinded and annulled by Redwood only in writing at any time prior to payment hereunder and Redwood shall have all rights and elections it is entitled to hereunder and or under law. Unless otherwise noted expressly herein in writing, no grace period applies.

(e)            Conversion.  At any time until both the Principal and Interest is paid in full and all conversions have been honored by the Company and the Note is no longer outstanding, the Principal and Interest, shall be convertible into shares of Common Stock of the Company at fifty five percent (55%) of the lowest 3 day average closing price price, determined on the then current trading market for the Company’s Common Stock, during a period of twenty (20) trading days prior to conversion (the “Set Price”).  Redwood shall effect conversions by delivering to the Company the form of Notice of Conversion attached hereto as Exhibit C (a “Notice of Conversion”), specifying the date on which such conversion is to be effected (a “Conversion Date”) and shall require the shares of Common Stock to be delivered by the Company within three (3) Business Days. If no Conversion Date is specified in a Notice of Conversion, the Conversion Date shall be the date that such Notice of Conversion is provided hereunder. To effect conversions hereunder, Redwood shall not be required to otherwise physically surrender anything to the Company. If the Company does not request, from its transfer agent, the issuance of the shares underlying the Note after receipt of a Notice of Conversion within three (3) Business Days following the date of Notice of Conversion, or fails to timely deliver the shares of Common Stock per the instructions of Redwood, within three (3) Business Days, free and clear of all legends and in legal free trading form, the Company shall be responsible to immediately reimburse Redwood for any differential in the value of the converted shares of Common Stock between the value of the closing price on the date the shares of Common Stock should have been delivered and the date the shares of Common Stock are delivered.   Redwood and any assignee, by acceptance of the Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of a portion of the Note, the unpaid and unconverted Principal may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof. The parties hereby agree that the Company shall reimburse Redwood for all legal costs associated with the issuance of an opinion(s) of counsel to the Transfer Agent and other costs, expenses and liabilities incurred in connection with the conversion and issuance of the shares of Common Stock.  When possible, the Company must pay these fees directly, otherwise the Company must make immediate payment for reimbursement to Redwood for all fees and expenses immediately upon written notice by Redwood or the submission of an invoice by Redwood.  In addition, if the Company fails to timely (within three (3) Business Days), deliver the shares of Common Stock per the instructions of Redwood, free and clear of all legends and in legal free trading form, the Company shall allow Redwood to add two (2) days to the look back (the mechanism used to obtain the conversion price along with discount) for each day the Company fails to timely (within three (3) Business Days)) deliver shares of Common Stock, on the next two (2) conversions.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, Redwood may not convert under the Note to the extent such conversion would result in Redwood, together with any affiliate thereof, beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of 4.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, including shares issuable upon such conversion and held by Redwood after application of this section. The provisions of this section may be waived by Redwood, in whole or part, upon sixty-one (61) days prior written notice.  Any successor to Redwood shall be unaffected by any such waiver.

(f)            Authorized Shares.  The Company covenants that during the period the conversion right exists, the Company 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 under the Note.  The Company is required at all times to have authorized and reserved five times the number of shares that is actually issuable upon full conversion (based on the Set Price in effect from time to time) (the “Reserved Amount”).  The Reserved Amount shall be increased from time to time in accordance with the Company’s obligations pursuant to the Note.  The Company represents that upon issuance, such shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.  The Company (i) acknowledges that it has irrevocably instructed its transfer agent to issue certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon conversion under the Note, and (ii) agrees that its execute of the Note and this Agreement 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 Agreement.  If, at any time the Company does not maintain the Reserved Amount it will be considered an Event of Default.

(g)            Adjustments.

1.            If the Company, at any time while the Note is outstanding: (A) shall pay a stock dividend or otherwise make a distribution or distributions on shares of its common stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company pursuant to the Note, including as interest thereon), (B) subdivide outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (C) combine (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (D) issue by  reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then the Set Price shall be either (i) as agreed in writing by Redwood in its discretion or if not agreed to by Redwood or reasonably objected to by the Company in writing to Redwood promptly before any such corporate change, (ii) be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stock as to such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification. Whenever the Set Price is adjusted as noted above in this paragraph the Company shall promptly, within one (1) Business Day, deliver to Redwood a notice setting forth the Set Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

2.            If, at any time while the Note is outstanding:  (A) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person (as defined below), (B) the Company effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (C) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which Redwood is permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property, or (D) the Company effects any reclassification of its Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which its Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (in any such case, a “Fundamental Transaction”), then Redwood may declare the Note in default or, if it elects in writing to the Company, upon any subsequent conversion, Redwood shall have the right to receive, for each underlying share that would have been issuable upon such conversion absent such Fundamental Transaction, the same kind and amount of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, converted one share of Common Stock of the Company (the “Alternate Consideration”). For purposes of any such conversion, the determination of the Set Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock of the Company in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Set Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner, but only if consented to in writing by Redwood, reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If shareholders of the Company’s Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then Redwood shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any conversion permitted under the Note following such Fundamental Transaction. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall issue to Redwood a new agreement consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing Redwood’s right to convert under such agreement into Alternate Consideration. The terms of any agreement pursuant to which a Fundamental Transaction is affected shall include terms requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this paragraph and insuring that the Note  (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction. If any Fundamental Transaction constitutes or results in a Change of Control Transaction, then at the request of Redwood delivered before the 90th calendar day after such Fundamental Transaction, the Company (or any such successor or surviving entity) will purchase the Note from Redwood for a purchase price, payable in cash within ten (10) business days of such request, equal to the less of (i) 125% or (ii) the maximum amount permitted by law, of the remaining unconverted Principal on the date of such request, plus all accrued and unpaid Interest thereon, plus all other accrued and unpaid amounts due hereunder.  For purposes of the Note and this Agreement, “Person” shall mean a corporation, an association, a partnership, organization, a business, an individual, a government or political subdivision thereof or a governmental agency.

(h)            Indebtedness.  So long as any portion of the Debt is outstanding, the Company shall not and shall not permit any of its subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter into, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any new indebtedness of any kind, on or with respect to any of its property or assets now owned or hereafter acquired or any interest therein or any income or profits therefrom that is senior in any respect to the Company's obligations under the Note without the prior consent of Redwood. All consents of required of Redwood pursuant to the Note shall be in the sole and absolute discretion of Redwood.

(i)            Usury.  If it shall be found by court that the Interest or other amount deemed interest due or aggregated hereunder violates applicable laws governing usury, the amount shall automatically be lowered to equal the maximum permitted under law.  The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law or other law which would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the principal of or interest on the Note as contemplated herein, or otherwise not honor the Note, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or which may affect the covenants or the performance of this indenture, and the Company (to the extent it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefits or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impeded the execution of any power herein granted to Redwood, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such as though no such law has been enacted.
 
 
3. Representations of Redwood.  Redwood represents to the Company and the Company confirms such representation, as follows:

(a)  Affiliate Status.  To the best of its knowledge, Redwood is not an affiliate, now or upon execution of this Agreement, and relies upon the representations made by the Company’s officers and directors, in such regard.   By execution of this Agreement, the Company hereby represents that Redwood is not and will not be, upon execution of this Agreement, an affiliate of the Company and the Company hereby acknowledges that Redwood has executed this Agreement solely on the reliance of such representation; and

(b) Accredited Investor Status.  Redwood is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D (an “Accredited Investor”).

4. Other Concerns.  Redwood has no responsibility for any action or inaction by the Company.   The parties recognize and acknowledge that they have entered into a confidential relationship as to this Agreement, subject to the requirements of law to the contrary, and the parties have negotiated and entered into this Agreement in good faith and without any duress. Company has, notwithstanding anything, obtained counsel of its own choosing on the legality of the subject including the issuance of the shares of Common Stock hereby without legend or restriction. The Company hereby indemnifies and holds harmless Redwood and its affiliates, including the counselors and advisors of Redwood, for any breach of any provision or representation by Company herein.

Re:     Amendment Agreement, dated July 29, 2014, by and between E-Waste Systems, Inc. and Redwood Management LLC (the “Agreement”)

 Dear Sir/Madam:

In connection with the Agreement and exhibits and related agreements and instruments, I hereby certify:

1.  
E-Waste Systems, Inc. (“E-Waste”) is not, and has not been, a shell issuer as described in Rule 144 promulgated with reference to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) nor is or was a ““shell”“ as otherwise commonly understood;

2.  
E-Waste is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

3.  
E-Waste has, to the extent it has been subject to Exchange Act requirements for filing reports, filed all reports and other materials required to be filed by Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months and or has filed with the trading exchange or over the counter disclosure system all such reports and information to be deeded current in all public reporting;

4.  
The original Debt, as defined in the Agreement, and the contents of the Agreement, are accurate and said original Debt and related stock and conversion rights are greater than six (6) months old and was owned and subject to assignment and transfer to you by a non- affiliate which transfer has been made.

5.  
E-Waste is now, and will remain current with all obligations with its stock transfer agent, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the state of incorporation.

6.  
Redwood is not now, and has not been during the three (3) months preceding the date of this letter, an officer, a director or more than 10% shareholder of E-waste or in any other way “affiliate” of the Company, as such term is defined in Rule 144(a)(l).  Without limiting the foregoing, Redwood, either alone or in concert with any person, does not directly or indirectly have the ability to control the Company.
