Item 1. Business
Business Overview
ILUS is a Nevada corporation operating out of New York,
London, and Dubai, focused on adding shareholder value through innovation and growth. The company has acquired and incorporated businesses
in the global public safety and technology, engineering, and manufacturing industries. Historically, the company has evolved out of the
public safety sector mainly through the development and manufacture of Emergency Services products, including Emergency Response vehicles,
Special Vehicle conversions, Commercial EVs, and IoT Technology. ILUS also intends to acquire complimentary companies, which have disruptive
technology and strong management and potential for rapid growth that may benefit from cross pollination of territories, products, and
skills offered by our other group companies.
ILUS functions as a holding company, which operates
through its subsidiaries within the public safety, technology, engineering, and manufacturing sectors. Our principal operating subsidiaries
and their respective businesses are discussed in detail below. ILUS wholly owns or has a controlling stake in each of its subsidiaries
which conduct their business operations with relative autonomy and are evaluated on their individual performance based upon the type of
products and services they offer. Our strategy is to acquire manufacturing capability, routes to market and technology advancements in
well-defined geographic, demographic and/or product niches within the business sectors that ILUS is focused on.
Organizational Structure
The below graphic shows our organizational structure,
with ILUS as the “Parent” company and operations primarily carried out through the operating subsidiaries. The subsidiaries
are identified in the figure below and are placed in four distinct divisions within their own existing or planned public companies, designed
as Special Purpose Vehicles (SPV’s) formed to fulfil each division’s specific business
purpose and activity. A fourth defense division has been incorporated in line with potential future acquisitions that are contemplated
for in this division, as well as acquisitions contemplated for other divisions. We intend to disclose these acquisitions, as they happen,
in our ongoing reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The divisions are listed below followed by the graphic:
|

Intellectual Property
The following overview concerns the intellectual property
matters of our company and its subsidiaries. Specific detail as to each subsidiary, if applicable, is contained in the section titled
“Our Operating Subsidiaries” below.
Patents and other proprietary rights are important
to our business and can provide us with a competitive advantage. We also rely on trade secrets, design and manufacturing know-how, continuing
technological innovations, and licensing opportunities to maintain and improve our competitive position. While the Company uses reasonable
efforts to protect its trade and business secrets, the Company cannot assure that its employees, consultants, contractors, or advisors
will not, unintentionally, or willfully, disclose the Company’s trade secrets to competitors or other third parties. In addition, courts
outside the United States are sometimes less willing to protect trade secrets. Moreover, the Company’s competitors may independently develop
equivalent knowledge, methods, and know-how. We periodically review third-party proprietary rights, including patents and patent applications,
in an effort to avoid infringement on third-party proprietary rights and protect our own, identify licensing or partnership opportunities
and monitor the intellectual property claims of others. Any infringement of the Company’s proprietary rights could result in significant
litigation costs, and any failure to adequately protect could result in the Company’s competitors offering similar products, potentially
resulting in loss of a competitive advantage and decreased revenue.
Existing patent, copyright, trademark, and trade secret
laws afford only limited protection. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect the Company’s proprietary rights to
the same extent as do the laws of the United States. Therefore, the Company may not be able to protect the Company’s proprietary rights
against unauthorized third-party use. Enforcing a claim that a third party illegally obtained and is using the Company’s trade secrets
could be expensive and time consuming, and the outcome of such a claim is unpredictable. Litigation may be necessary in the future to
protect the Company’s trade secrets or to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. This litigation could
result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and could materially adversely affect the Company’s future operating results.
We own a portfolio of intellectual property in our
group, including 3 patents in the operating company, FB Fire Technologies Ltd. (FireBug Group), as well as confidential technical information
and technological expertise in the manufacturing of firefighting technology. We got control over FB Fire technologies Ltd on January 14,
2021, but later in 2022 we lost effective control due to ongoing uncertainty regarding the outcome of the litigation on lien-marked shares,
hence we decided not to consolidate FB Fire’s financial statements. The 3 patents are still with the registered Inventor of the patented
products, Nicolas Link, who is also the beneficial owner of ILUS. We are currently the process of extending the life of the patents and
transferring them to Firebug Mechanical Equipment LLC.
While we consider
our patents to be valued assets, we do not believe that our competitive position is dependent primarily on our patents or that our operations
are dependent upon any single patent to manufacture our products. We nevertheless face intellectual property-related risks. For
more information on these risks, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors.”
The Company owns the
trademark ILUS.
Competition
The following overview covers the competition we encounter
within markets we operate in and those we intend to expand into. Specific detail as to each subsidiary, if applicable, is contained in
the section titled “Our Operating Subsidiaries” below.
The Public Safety Technology, Engineering, Industrial,
Manufacturing, Mining and Renewable Energy sectors are highly competitive and continually evolving as participants strive to distinguish
themselves within their markets and compete within their respective industry. While we do face intense competition in some divisions of
our business from companies that have been established long before ours and have a strong global reach, we have also developed our own
disruptive technology for which there is no known direct competition within that particular sector. We strive to advance our Technology,
Engineering & Manufacturing capabilities in each sector ahead of our competitors to gain market share. Our ability to continue to
compete effectively also depends upon our ability to attract the required skills, as well as to retain and motivate our existing employees
and to compensate employees competitively. We believe that we have competitive strengths that position us favorably in our lines of business.
However, our industry is dominated by long-standing companies, and we are continuously strategizing to increase our market share. These
long-standing companies are often larger and have more resources to their disposable to retain market share. We believe that, in many
of the sectors where we operate, the technology offered by our competitors is outdated and we have a competitive advantage through the
innovative technology we offer.

our operating companies can be found in the table below:

Government Regulations
The following overview concerns government regulations
that affect our company and its subsidiaries. Specific detail as to each subsidiary, if applicable, is contained in the section titled
“Our Operating Subsidiaries” below.
In certain markets,
some of our products require government approvals and some of our companies require specific operating licenses. Our operating companies
remain compliant with the required licenses and approvals in order to operate within their respective markets and/or geographic territories.
Approvals may also be required for the award of government contracts, and these are provided accordingly as required.
Environmental, Health and Safety Laws and Regulations
Our ongoing global
operations are subject to a wide range of federal, state, local and foreign environmental, health and safety laws and regulations. These
laws and regulations relate to the generation, storage, handling, use, release, disposal and transportation of hazardous materials and
wastes, environmental cleanup, the health and safety of our employees and the fuel economy and emissions of the vehicles we manufacture.
Compliance with these laws, regulations, permits, and approvals is a significant factor in our business. Certain of our operations require
permits or other approvals from governmental authorities, and certain of these permits and approvals are subject to expiration, denial,
revocation, or modification under various circumstances. We have expended resources, both financial and managerial, to comply with required
regulations and we maintain procedures designed to foster and ensure compliance. We are committed to protecting our employees and the
environment against any manufacturing related risks. In addition, we may be responsible under environmental laws and regulations for the
investigation, remediation, and monitoring, as well as associated costs, expenses and third-party damages, including tort liability and
natural resource damages, relating to past or present releases of hazardous substances on or from our properties or the properties of
our predecessor companies, or third-party sites to which we or our predecessor companies have sent hazardous waste for disposal or treatment.
Liability under these laws may be imposed without regard to fault and may be joint and several.
However, our failure
to comply with applicable environmental, health and safety laws and regulations or permit or approval requirements could result in substantial
liabilities or civil or criminal fines or penalties or enforcement actions, including regulatory or judicial orders enjoining or curtailing
operations or requiring remedial or corrective measures, installation of pollution control equipment or other actions, as well as business
disruptions, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results.

The FireBug range of products consists of the following:
| 1. | MistNozzle handheld firefighting
nozzles |
The MistNozzle handheld firefighting nozzles is a specialist
firefighting nozzle/branch, which produces a fine water mist enabling it to extinguish multiple classes of fires without the use of chemical
agents. The product is designed to increase efficiency, utilize less water, and increase fire fighter safety. The MistNozzle range is
designed, developed and manufactured in the UK. It uses proven micron technology from the fire fixed suppression system industry. The
MistNozzle uses science in order to provide superior fire cooling and extinguishing. Its low-pressure water mist technology makes it more
efficient than comparative firefighting nozzles. The MistNozzle has one-click switch-function technology, allowing the user to easily
transition between Jet Mode and Water Mist Mode, minimizing room for error and ensuring safe mode selection. The plug-and-play functionality
of the MistNozzle works with most existing hose types on most existing fire trucks. The nozzle has been specifically designed for ease
of use with minimal training required for safe and effective use. With water being a valuable resource the world over, the MistNozzle
deliberately uses less water during operation. The water mist produced by the MistNozzle absorbs 2257kj of energy per liter verses conventional
technology which absorbs 335kj per liter. The MistNozzle also combats the effects of smoke within the fire environment, providing effective
and in some cases, lifesaving smoke scrubbing capability.
| 2. | Mongoose external firefighting
lance |
FireBug’s Mongoose is a handheld firefighting
nozzle with an extension lance that allows it to be inserted from the exterior of a structure into an area such as a room (compartment)
in order to cool the area and suppress the fire. The Mongoose system is comprised of the water mist attack nozzle and a battery-operated
hole cutting drill. Either the drill or the firefighters compartment entry tools are used to breach the structure and create the necessary
hole through which the Mongoose is inserted. This method provides safer access to the compartment. The Mongoose has been designed to ensure
the correct kinetic energy will overcome the pressures created by the fire. Water mist droplets are transformed into steam by the heat
which consumes energy, removes oxygen, and consequently cools the gases and inhibits re-ignition. The Mongoose can deliver 40–50-micron
water mist droplets covering a large surface area into a compartment which rapidly cools the area, scrubs the smoke, and suppresses the
fire. The Mongoose is completely unique in that it can operate on an existing fire truck on existing hose lines, without requiring a separate
pump and hose reel.
| 3. | MistMax and Maverick firefighting
pumps |
FireBug’s MistMax is a portable low-pressure
water mistfire suppression skid. The self-contained skid unit is designed to fit in a standard pick-up truck or on a
UTV such as the E-Raptor electric UTV. The MistMax is an easy-to-use, lightweight, and reliable solution which can be used by both non-technical
operators and experienced firefighters. The MistMax uses Firebug’s proprietary technology including customized
eductor mixer, a specialized pulsating diaphragm pump, front winding geared hose reel, easy to use control panel, custom engineered baffled
water tank and the Mini MistNozzle which features Firebug’s water stream colliding and atomizing technology.
FireBug’s Maverick is a self-priming,
high-water volume, light portable pump which is designed as multi-purpose firefighting skid unit that can be portable or permanently fixed
in a firefighting vehicle. It has the capability to operate a hose reel or lay flat hose connected to a water supply tank or it can lift
water from an open water source or obtain it from a pressure fed supply such as a floating pump.
Firebug offers a range of floating pumps which are
designed for pumping water from streams, lakes, hard-to-reach sources of water, or flooded areas. The range of floating pumps offer practical
features and easy-to-use operation. Features include high impact resistance, compact size and light weight, powerful Honda or Briggs &
Stratton engines, bronze impellers for marine use where required, specialized strainers and optional external fuel tanks.
Firebug’s BacPac has been designed to provide
rapid response firefighting capabilities using either water, foam or additive. The BacPac system contains a sophisticated internal mechanical
rotor, which is used in the generation of WaterMist or foam (RAFS foam). The spindle and impellor rotate at high speeds mixing the foam
that allows optimum extinguishing. The device increases the range of the discharge by at least 200% and is 6 times more efficient than
any other known foam system, including CAFS.
| 6. | E-Raptor Commercial Electric
Utility Vehicle |
Manufactured by FireBug, the E-Raptor range consists
of commercial electric utility vehicles for several rugged applications. The E-Raptor 6x6 is the world’s only 6-wheel electric utility
vehicle. With 80km range on a single charge, the E-Raptor is fit for most industrial, agricultural, and rapid emergency response applications.
The E-Raptor can carry a maximum load weight of 3500 Lbs. The E-Raptor range is manufactured by FireBug as it complements its rapid response
firefighting vehicle solutions for confined and congested spaces.
| 7. | Rapid Intervention Vehicles |
FireBug’s rapid intervention vehicle solutions
range from small electric utility vehicles with bespoke firefighting systems to pick-up trucks with firefighting and rescue systems, right
up to customized firefighting appliances. FireBug specializes in providing bespoke vehicle solutions for rapid emergency response in congested
areas, industrial facilities, shopping malls, marinas, airports, resorts, and communities which require their own firefighting or rescue
vehicle capability.
| 8. | Lightweight Co-Polymer Vehicle
Bodies and Water Tanks |

vehicle bodies and tanks primarily for the emergency response sector. Depending on customer requirements, FireBug provides only the tank
or vehicle superstructure or the fully equipped complete vehicle. Utilizing the latest in plastic cutting and welding technology, FireBug

Bull Head Products designs, manufactures and installs
its aluminum truck beds and vehicle conversions for customers across the United States. Its customers come from several sectors, including
wildland fire fighting. The company’s products are built with 100% aluminum for optimal performance and reliability.
Bull Head Products operates from its Kodak, Tennessee
facility, with many truck beds and conversions being completed and installed in the facility and many being shipped to dealers and distributors
for installation.
During the past 18 months, Bull Head Products faced
some supply chain issues as a direct result of the disruption in supply chains across the world due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Whilst every
effort is made to source materials from additional suppliers, this can sometimes lead to an increase in price. The company has therefore
increased its principal suppliers of raw materials to the following suppliers:
|
● |
Tennessee Valley Fasteners |
|
● |
Buyers Products Company |
Bull Head Products manufactures and installs its products
for both private individuals and businesses who require a specific type of aluminum flatbed for their truck or fleet of trucks. The company
services a wide range of new and repeat customers and there is no dependency on any one single customer.

Quality Industrial Corp.
On May 28, 2022, Modern Art Foundation Inc. (“Modern
Art”) Rene Lauritsen and Fastbase Holding Inc. agreed to transfer 77,669,078 shares of common stock in Wikisoft Corp. to Ilustrato
Pictures International Inc. (“Ilustrato”). Pursuant to a Stock Transfer
Agreement, the company purchased the shares for an aggregate amount of $500,000. Wikisoft Corp. has since changed its name to Quality
Industrial Corp. and its OTC Ticker was changed from WSFT to QIND.
As a result of the above transaction, there was a change
in control of the Company. The 77,669,078 shares transferred amounts to approximately 77% of the outstanding shares in Quality Industrial
Corp. Consequently, ILUS now unilaterally controls the election of our board of directors
and the direction of QIND. As a result of the Change of Control, Mr. Quintal resigned as Chairman of the Board, and Mr. Link was appointed
as the Chairman of the Board.
Quality International Co Ltd FCZ
After ILUS acquired control of QIND, on May 28, 2022,
the company signed a binding letter of intent on June 28, 2022, to acquire control of Quality International, an international process
manufacturing company, manufacturing custom solutions for the Oil & Gas, Petrochemical & Refinery, Chemical & Fertilizer,
Power & Desalination, Water & Wastewater and Offshore industries. Quality International has several required industry certifications
in place and is on several global preferred vendor lists, with customers including but not limited to BP, Shell, Total, Chevron, Sonatrach,
Sasol and Gasco.
To fund the first tranche of the purchase price for
the interest in Quality International, on August 3, 2022, we issued to an accredited investor a two-year convertible promissory note in
the principal amount of $1,100,000 the “August 2022 Note”). The August 2022 Note bears interest at 7% per annum. We have the
right to prepay the August 2022 Note at any time. All principal on the August 2022 Note is convertible into shares of our common stock
after six months from issuance at the election of the holder at a conversion price equal to $1.00 per share.
The Binding Letter of Intent with Quality International
contemplated a period of due diligence followed by entry into a share purchase agreement. On January 18, 2023, we entered into a share
purchase agreement with the shareholders of Quality International (the “QI Share Purchase Agreement”), which agreement provided
for our purchase of 78 of the 150 (52%) outstanding shares of Quality International (the “QI Shares”), a freezone company
under the regulations of Abu Dhabi General Markets and laws of United Arab Emirates. This entity is our majority owned subsidiary. All
closing documents were executed for the transaction on March 6, 2023.
The purchase price for the
acquisition shall be up to $137,000,000 in cash, paid in tranches, subject to achievement of financial milestones presented in a schedule
of payments set forth in the QI Share Purchase Agreement which was filed with our Form 8-K dated January 18, 2023. Later on, July 31,
2023, the parties to the Purchase Agreement entered into an amendment to the Purchase Agreement to revise the payment schedule for the
acquisition. The Purchase Price shall remain at up to $137,000,000 in cash, but the schedule was amended, effective as of March 31, 2023.
On July 31, 2023, the
parties to the QI Purchase Agreement entered into an amendment to the QI Purchase Agreement (the “Amended QI Purchase Agreement”)
to revise the payment schedule for the acquisition to extend the payment timeline with smaller amounts due at each date. Under section
2.1 of the Amended QI Purchase Agreement, the payment schedule of the QI Purchase Price has been revised (the “Amended Payment
Schedule”) to extend the payment timeline with smaller amounts due at each date. Moreover, break fees were introduced if the payments
are not received by their respective due dates. In the event that the Company fails to meet any of the revised payment dates and/or the
revised payment amounts, pursuant to the Amended Payment Schedule, the parties acknowledge and agree that the QI Shareholders shall have
the right, but not the obligation, to, in their sole discretion, terminate the Amended QI Purchase Agreement and all associated agreements
with us. Consequently, if terminated, the Company would be liable for the applicable break fee pursuant to the table in the Amended Payment
Schedule, the break fee is capped at $3,500,000. The parties agreement to release each other from the performance of any obligations
under the Amended QI Purchase Agreement, together with all related transaction documents, is subject to the payment of the break fee.
In addition to the break fee, the Company would be potentially exposed to other expenses related to any settlement and recovery of paid
amounts to Quality International, including any or all debt incurred, guaranteed and paid by the Company and contemplated as future borrowings
used for the continuous operation of the Company and its subsidiary. Upon the payment of the break fee and settlement of any pending
transaction, the parties shall have no further rights or obligations with each other except for those which are intended to survive after
such termination.
The Amended Payment
Schedule outlines a series of financial milestones and payment requirements involving staggered payment tranches are as follows:
| ● | Tranche
2: $15,000,000 was to be paid immediately upon the agreement’s closing. This has been
revised into three sub-tranches with payment to Quality International Co Ltd FZC: |
| a. | Tranche
2.1: $500,000 due by June 16, 2023. A break fee of $1,000,000 applies if not received by
the due date. |
| b. | Tranche 2.2: $2,000,000 due before July
31, 2023. If the previous payment isn’t made by its deadline, a cumulative break fee
of $1,250,000 applies. |
| c. | Tranche 2.3: $5,000,000 due before September
15, 2023. If previous payments aren’t made by their respective deadlines, cumulative
break fees could sum up to $2,250,000. |
| ● | Tranche
3: Initially, $66,000,000 was due by March 6, 2023. Under revised Tranche 3.1, the revised
amount is $73,500,000, to be paid before November 30, 2023. The break fee is capped at $3,500,000.
The payments are divided among Quality International Co Ltd FZC ($28,500,000), Gerab National
Enterprise LLC ($39,000,000), and Saseendran Kodapully Ramakrishnan ($6,000,000). |
| ● | Tranche
4: $14,000,000 due by January 31, 2024. The break fee is not applicable provided the entirety
of Tranche 3.1 is received by November 30, 2023. The payments are divided among Gerab National
Enterprise LLC ($6,000,000), Saseendran Kodapully Ramakrishnan ($5,000,000), and Quality
International Co Ltd FZC ($3,000,000). |
| ● | Tranche
5: $20,000,000, due by April 15, 2024, after Year End 2023 audited financials are completed
by March 15, 2024. The break fee is not applicable provided the entirety of Tranche 3.1 is

Legal Proceedings
From time to time, we may become party to various lawsuits,
claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. Aside from the below, we are not currently a party,
as plaintiff or defendant, to any legal proceedings that we believe to be material or which, individually or in the aggregate, would be
expected to have a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operation if determined adversely to us.
We have been named as a defendant
in an action commenced by our former CEO, Larson Elmore. A case has been filed in the Eight Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada
(Case No. A-22-858343-C). Plaintiff alleges that we breached a stock purchase agreement dated May 10, 2020, and promissory notes and is
therefore entitled to damages. We have potential counterclaims being prepared against the former CEO, arising due to improper action and
lack of disclosures. The company has disputed the claim and argue that Larson Elmore has been misleading
the company and its shareholders on various matters including but not limited to liabilities, company commitments and due diligence items
presented by Larson Elmore during the takeover process. We have filed a motion to dismiss Larson Elmore’s complaint on the
basis that it fails to state a claim and lacks jurisdiction in the Nevada courts. At the hearing on this motion, the court determined
that discovery would be required before ruling for the company and denied the motion without prejudice. The company is evaluating
a motion for reconsideration once the order has been entered. In the interim, the parties have discussed a tentative discovery schedule
and the possibility of a mediation and settlement conference.
We have been named as a defendant
in an action commenced by Steve Nicol, who claims that he loaned $12,000 on or about May 23, 2017, to Cache Cabinetry, LLC a subsidiary
of ILUS under a promissory note, but that ILUS agreed to assume the note. He further claims that he elected to convert the note and that
ILUS failed to convert the note into shares of ILUS common stock. He has alleged breach of contract, declaratory relief, and specific
performance to require the company to issue 75,000,000 shares of common stock in ILUS. . The company obtained a settlement on September
6, 2023, and awaits the final court order.
We have been named as a defendant
in an action commenced by Black Ice Advisors LLC, regarding a historic note entered into by the previous CEO, Larson Elmore with a principal
amount of $4,000. The company disputes the legitimacy of the note. On June 5, 2023, we received a service of process by the Superior
Court of California, County of San Diego, with a hearing rescheduled for March 8, 2024. On August 22, 2023, the company received
information that Black Ice Advisors withdrew their prior demand for shares with a new motion seeking a monetary judgment in Black Ice’s
in the amount of $3.772 million for the historic note with a principal amount of $4,000. At a hearing on November 3, 2023, the Court
adopted its tentative ruling as the final ruling and denied the motion for summary judgement from Black Ice Advisors LLC. The case
has received a trial date for March 8, 2024.
We cannot predict whether this action involving our
former CEO, or Black Ice Advisors LLC is likely to result in any material recovery by or expense to our company. Where it is reasonably
possible to do so, the Company accrues estimates of the probable costs for the resolution of these matters. These estimates based upon
an analysis of potential results and settlement strategies. It is possible, however, that future operating results for any particular
quarter or annual period could be affected by changes in assumption.
Smaller Reporting Company
The Company is a “smaller reporting company”
as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act. There are certain exemptions available to us as a smaller reporting company, including:
(1) not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes Oxley Act; (2) scaled executive
compensation disclosures; and (3) the requirement to provide only two years of audited financial statements, instead of three years. As
long as we maintain our status as a “smaller reporting company”, these exemptions will continue to be available to us.
Corporate History
We were incorporated as Superior Venture Corp. on April
27, 2010, in the State of Nevada for the purpose of selling wine varietals. On November 9, 2012, we entered into an Exchange Agreement
with Ilustrato Pictures Ltd., a British Columbia corporation (“Ilustrato BC”), whereby we acquired all of the issued and outstanding
common stock of Ilustrato BC and the shareholders of Ilustrato BC received 1,200,000 shares of our common stock, which represented approximately
15% of our outstanding common stock following the acquisition. On November 30, 2012, Ilustrato BC transferred all of its assets and liabilities
to Ilustrato Pictures Limited, our wholly owned subsidiary in Hong Kong (“Ilustrato HK”).
Ilustrato BC was in the business of developing, for
international release, feature theatrical films to be financed and distributed domestically by Chinese production companies.
On February 11, 2016, Barton Hollow, LLC, a Nevada
limited liability company, and stockholder of the Company, filed an Application for Appointment of Custodian pursuant to Section 78.347
of the Nevada Revised Statutes in the District Court for Clark County, Nevada. Barton Hollow was subsequently appointed custodian of the
Company by Order of the Court on Apri1 5, 2016. In accordance with the provisions of the Order, Barton Hollow thereafter moved to reinstate
the Company with the State of Nevada, provide for the election of interim officers and directors, and call and hold a stockholder meeting.
On April 1, 2016, Barton Hollow, together with the
newly elected director of the Company, caused the Company to enter into a Letter of Intent to merge with Cache Cabinetry, LLC, an Arizona
limited liability company. Cache Cabinetry was a cabinet and design company headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona that focused on the design
and supply of kitchen furnishings to residential clients. Pursuant to the Letter of intent, the parties thereto would endeavor to arrive
at, and enter a definitive merger agreement providing for the Merger. As an inducement to the members of Cache Cabinetry, LLC. to enter
into the Letter of Intent and thereafter transact, the Company caused 360,000,000 shares of its common stock to be issued to the members.
Subsequently, on Apri1 6, 2016, the Company and Cache
Cabinetry, LLC entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”). As a result, the stockholders
of the Company elected Derrick McWilliams the President and Chief Executive Officer of Cache Cabinetry, LLC, who, along with Barton Hollow,
ratified and approved the Merger Agreement and Merger
The Merger closed on June 3, 2016. Upon closing, Cache
Cabinetry, LLC. merged into a newly created subsidiary of the Company with the members of Cache Cabinetry, LLC receiving shares of common
stock of the Company as consideration therefore. Upon closing of the Merger, Cache Cabinetry, LLC. was the surviving corporation in the
merger and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
In August 2019 the Company amended its Articles of
Incorporation to authorize it to issue up to two billion (2,000,000,000) shares, of which all shares are common stock, with a par value
of one-tenth of one cent ($0.001) per share. The Company also created the following 30,000,000 preferred shares with a par value of $0.001
to be designated Class A, B and C.
Class A – 10,000,000 preferred shares that convert
at 3 common shares for every 1 preferred class A share and voting rights of 500 common shares for every 1 preferred class A share. All

Class B – 10,000,000 preferred shares that convert
at 3 common shares for every 1 preferred class B common share.
Class C – 10,000,000 preferred shares that convert
at 2 common shares for every 1 preferred class C common share with voting rights of 100 common shares for every 1 preferred class C share.
On February 14, 2020, the Company designated preferred
Class D shares – 60,741,000 preferred shares; par value $0.001 that convert at 500 common shares for every 1 preferred class D common

On August 26, 2021, the company
amended Class B Shares to 100,000,000 shares with par value $0.001 that convert at 100 common shares for every 1 preferred Class B Share

Item 1A. Risk Factors
An investment in our securities involves a high
degree of risk. In addition to the other information contained in this Registration Statement on Form 10, prospective investors should
carefully consider the following risks before investing in our securities. If any of the following risks actually occur, as well as other
risks not currently known to us or that we currently consider immaterial, our business, operating results and financial condition could
be materially adversely affected. As a result, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and investors may lose all or part
of their investment in our common stock. The risks discussed below also include forward-looking statements, and our actual results may
differ substantially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. See “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements”
in this Form 10. In assessing the risks below, you should also refer to the other information contained in this Form 10, including the
financial statements and the related notes, before deciding to purchase any of our securities.
Risk Related to Covid 19
Our business and future operations may be adversely
affected by epidemics and pandemics, such as the COVID-19 outbreak.
We may face risks related to health epidemics
and pandemics or other outbreaks of communicable diseases, which could result in a widespread health crisis that could adversely affect
general commercial activity and the economies and financial markets of the world as a whole. For example, the outbreak of COVID-19, which
originated in China, was declared by the World Health Organization to be a “pandemic,” and spread across the globe. A health
epidemic or pandemic or other outbreak of communicable diseases, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, poses the risk that we, or our
current and potential business partners may be disrupted or prevented from conducting business activities for certain periods of time,
the durations of which are uncertain, and may otherwise experience significant impairments of business activities, including due to operational
shutdowns or suspensions that may be requested or mandated by national or local governmental authorities or self-imposed by us, our users
or other business partners. While it is not possible at this time to estimate the full impact that COVID-19 could have on our business,
potential users, or other potential business partners, the continued spread of COVID-19, the measures taken by the local and federal government,
actions taken to protect employees, and the impact of the pandemic on various business activities could adversely affect our results of
operations and financial condition. COVID-19 has not recently had any material impact on our operations, supply chain, liquidity
or capital resources. During the lockdowns we however saw significant shipping delays, consumer orders on hold due to budgetary restrictions
as well as a slow-down in our planned acquisitions due to flight restrictions limiting on site due diligence. The company has as a mitigant
to future COVID-19 outbreaks increased its number of suppliers of raw materials to reduce the risk of production capabilities and order
back-logs.
Risks Relating to Macro Conditions and Our
Financial Condition
We have a substantial amount of goodwill on our balance sheet.
Future write-offs of goodwill may have the effect of decreasing our earnings or increasing our losses.
We have obtained growth through the acquisition
of Quality International. Under existing accounting standards, we are required to periodically review goodwill assets for possible impairment.
In the event that we are required to write down the value of any assets under these pronouncements, it may materially and adversely affect
our earnings. See the more detailed discussion appearing as part of our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations and in our financial footnotes. The percentage of our goodwill and intangible assets compared to our total assets
as of December 31, 2022, were 24.0% and 44.6% respectively.
Our ability to generate the significant
amount of cash needed to service our debt obligations and our ability to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness or obtain additional
financing depends on many factors, many of which may be beyond our control.
As of December 31, 2022, we had $1,478,702 in cash
and cash equivalents as compared to $176,668 as of December 31, 2021. We also had $60,690,812 in accounts receivable as of December 31,
2022. Of those 33,175,606 related to Quality International a subsidiary of QIND and in total we had receivables that are more than 90
days past due as of December 31, 2022, of $30,192,822 in total of which $30,095,285 was in QIND. Our accounts receivable primarily includes
balance due from customers of Quality International Co Ltd FCZ, as well as products sold and delivered to additional customers. The duration
of such receivables extends from 30 days to beyond 12 Months. Full payment is received only when a job/project is completed, and approvals
are obtained. Provisions are created based on estimated irrecoverable amounts determined by reference to past default experience. The
majority of Quality International Co Ltd FCZ accounts receivable extend beyond 12 months and are guaranteed by a shareholder of Quality
International Co Ltd FCZ, Gerab National Enterprises LLC. Collected accounts receivable are used as working capital in our operations,
where necessary.
We normally grant our customers 30–90-day
payment terms after credit sales, depending on their trading history and specific tender requirements (if applicable). However, in the
fiscal year 2021, some of our distributors were affected by the COVID-19 outbreak which caused delays in their payment. In addition, some
of our customers tend to require longer payment terms due to their longer payment processing procedures. Even though we believe that they
are unlikely to default because of our long-term business relationships with them and our belief that the collectability risk is low based
on our historical experience and collection history with them, there can be no assurances that these receivables will be collected.
Our ability to make scheduled payments on, or to
refinance our obligations under, our debt, will depend on our financial and operating performance, which, in turn, will be subject to
prevailing economic and competitive conditions and to the financial and business factors, many of which may be beyond our control. We
cannot assure you that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations, that currently anticipated business opportunities
will be realized on schedule or at all, or that future borrowings will be available to us in amounts sufficient to enable us to service
our indebtedness and any amounts borrowed under future credit facilities, or to fund our other liquidity needs.
We will use cash to pay the principal and interest
on our debt. These payments limit funds otherwise available for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, collaborations, and
other purposes. As a result of these obligations, our current liabilities may exceed our current assets. We may need to take on additional
debt as we expand in our industry, which could increase our ratio of debt to equity. The need to service our debt may limit funds available
for other purposes and our inability to service debt in the future could lead to acceleration of our debt and foreclosure on assets.
We cannot assure that we will be able to refinance
any of our indebtedness or obtain additional financing as well as prevailing market conditions. As a result, we could face liquidity problems
and might be required to dispose of material assets or operations to meet our indebtedness service and other obligations.
Our projections are subject to significant risks, assumptions,
estimates and uncertainties, including assumptions regarding future legislation and changes in regulations of the jurisdictions in which
we operate, or seek to operate, our business. As a result, our projected revenues, market share, expenses and profitability may differ
materially from our expectations.
We operate in a rapidly evolving and highly competitive
industry and our projections are subject to the risks and assumptions made by management with respect to the respective industry. Operating
results are difficult to forecast because they generally depend on our assessment of factors that are inherently beyond our control and
impossible to predict with certainty, such as the timing of adoption of future legislation and regulations by different jurisdictions.
Furthermore, if we invest in the development of new products or distribution channels that do not achieve commercial success, whether
because of competition or otherwise, we may not recover the often material “up front” costs of developing and marketing those
products and distribution channels or recover the opportunity cost of diverting management and financial resources away from other products
or distribution channels.
Additionally, our business may be affected by reductions
in customer acquisition, customer persistency and customer spending as a result of numerous factors which may be difficult to predict.
This may result in decreased revenue levels, and we may be unable to adopt timely measures to compensate for any unexpected shortfall
in income. Our profitability projections make numerous assumptions about the expected future levels of various expense items. Historically
most of these expense items have been relatively stable or predictable either in absolute terms or in relation to revenue but there is
no certainty that such stability or predictability will continue into the future. These inabilities could cause our operating results
in a given period to be higher or lower than expected. If actual results differ from our estimates, analysts may negatively react and
our share price could be adversely impacted.
If we are unable to successfully identify, complete and integrate
acquisitions, our results of operations could be adversely affected.
Acquisitions have been and will continue to be
a significant component of our growth strategy, including the recent acquisition of Quality International. We seek to identify and complete
acquisitions and may continue to make strategic acquisitions. Our previous or future acquisitions may not be successful or may not generate
the financial benefits that we expected to achieve at the time of acquisition. In addition, there can be no assurance that we will be
able to locate suitable acquisition candidates in the future or acquire them on acceptable terms or, because of competition in the marketplace
and limitations imposed by the agreements governing our indebtedness or the availability of capital, that we will be able to finance future
acquisitions. We may be unable to identify, negotiate, and complete suitable acquisition opportunities on reasonable terms.
Acquisitions involve special risks, including,
without limitation, the potential assumption of unanticipated liabilities and contingencies, difficulty in assimilating the operations
and personnel of the acquired businesses, disruption of our existing business, dissipation of our limited management resources and impairment
of relationships with employees and customers of the acquired business as a result of changes in ownership. For instance, our subsidiary
QIND considered acquiring a 51% interest in Petro Line FZ-LLC (“Petro Line”), entering into a share purchase agreement on
January 27, 2023, (the “Petro Line Share Purchase Agreement”). However, the acquisition never materialized after a fire at
a Petro Line factory. An investigation into the fire’s impact led us to subsequently terminate the Petro Line Share Purchase Agreement
on July 31, 2023, and no payments to Petro Line were made. Such incidents can significantly affect our financial and operational outlook.
While we believe that strategic acquisitions can
improve our competitiveness and profitability, these activities could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition,
and operating results. We may incur significant costs such as transaction fees, professional service fees and other costs related to future
acquisitions. We may also incur integration costs following the completion of any such acquisitions as we integrate the acquired business
with the rest of our Company. Although we expect that the realization of efficiencies related to the integration of any acquired businesses
will offset the incremental transaction and acquisition-related costs over time, this net financial benefit may not be achieved in the
near term, or at all.
Our ability to generate the significant amount of cash needed
to service our debt obligations and our ability to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness or obtain additional financing depends
on many factors, many of which may be beyond our control.
Our ability to make scheduled payments on, or to
refinance our obligations under, our debt, will depend on our financial and operating performance, which, in turn, will be subject to
prevailing economic and competitive conditions and to the financial and business factors, many of which may be beyond our control. We
cannot assure you that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations, that currently anticipated business opportunities
will be realized on schedule or at all, or that future borrowings will be available to us in amounts sufficient to enable us to service
our indebtedness and any amounts borrowed under future credit facilities, or to fund our other liquidity needs.
We will use cash to pay the principal and interest
on our debt. These payments limit funds otherwise available for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, collaborations and
other purposes. As a result of these obligations, our current liabilities may exceed our current assets. We may need to take on additional
debt as we expand in our industry, which could increase our ratio of debt to equity. The need to service our debt may limit funds available
for other purposes and our inability to service debt in the future could lead to acceleration of our debt and foreclosure on assets.
We cannot assure that we will be able to refinance
any of our indebtedness or obtain additional financing as well as prevailing market conditions. As a result, we could face liquidity
problems and might be required to dispose of material assets or operations to meet our indebtedness service and other obligations. The
Company’s current Debt Obligations are mentioned elsewhere in this registration statement. However, a historical debt obligation
includes a Note Issued on February 4, 2022, to Discover Growth Fund amounting to $2,000,000 which we were not able to service before
maturity. The Company signed a Forbearance Agreement with Discover Growth Fund on May 3, 2023. The Company shall make monthly minimum
loan payments to Discover Growth Fund of $450,000.00 commencing on May 30, 2023, and on the 5th day of each month thereafter, until the
Note is paid in full. Four payments of $450,000 have been as of this Form 10. Also, the Company amended the AJB capital investments LLC
note on October 18, 2023. The previous convertible note was in the amount of $1,200,000 that matured on June 1, 2023. The amended convertible
note filed with this registration statement amounts to $1,450,000 and is maturing on May 1, 2024. Further the convertible note with Jefferson
Street Capital in the amount of $100,000 matured on July 26, 2023 which we were not able to service before maturity. Jefferson has subsequently
partially converted the convertible note.
The lending documents restrict, and any agreements
governing future indebtedness may restrict, our ability to dispose of assets and use the proceeds from any such dispositions. We cannot
assure we will be able to consummate any asset sales, or if we do, what the timing of the sales will be or whether the proceeds that we
realize will be adequate to meet indebtedness service obligations when due.
Our ability to generate the significant amount of cash needed
to fund acquisition obligations is dependent mainly on the ability of our subsidiary, QIND, to attract quality investors on an exchange.
Aside from serving debt, the Company also has outstanding
obligations for payments under acquisitions. The Company plans to fund the current and ongoing obligations for acquisitions such as Quality
International Co Ltd FCZ, through its publicly listed Industrial & Manufacturing subsidiary, Quality Industrial Corp. (OTC: QIND).
QIND filed a preliminary information statement on Schedule 14C on June 23, 2023, for a potential reverse split to meet the share price
requirements to uplist on NYSE American. Following the uplist, QIND intends to raise capital by private or public means to fund the cash
obligations for its acquisitions.
We believe that an uplist of QIND to a national
exchange will enhance the ability to attract more suitable investors. There can be no assurances, however, that QIND will be eligible
to uplist to the NYSE American, or that it will be able to raise the capital needed to fund these outstanding obligations. If we are unable
to fund acquisition obligations, we may lose valuable assets and the subsidiaries that we are attempting to acquire, which could cause
us to go out of business.
If we are unable to successfully identify, complete and integrate
acquisitions, our results of operations could be adversely affected.
Acquisitions have been and will continue to be
a significant component of our growth strategy. We seek to identify and complete acquisitions and may continue to make strategic acquisitions.
Our previous or future acquisitions may not be successful or may not generate the financial benefits that we expected to achieve at the
time of acquisition. In addition, there can be no assurance that we will be able to locate suitable acquisition candidates in the future
or acquire them on acceptable terms or, because of competition in the marketplace and limitations imposed by the agreements governing
our indebtedness or the availability of capital, that we will be able to finance future acquisitions. Acquisitions involve special risks,
including, without limitation, the potential assumption of unanticipated liabilities and contingencies, difficulty in assimilating the
operations and personnel of the acquired businesses, disruption of our existing business, dissipation of our limited management resources
and impairment of relationships with employees and customers of the acquired business as a result of changes in ownership. While we believe
that strategic acquisitions can improve our competitiveness and profitability, these activities could have a material adverse effect on
our business, financial condition, and operating results. We may incur significant costs such as transaction fees, professional service
fees and other costs related to future acquisitions. We may also incur integration costs following the completion of any such acquisitions
as we integrate the acquired business with the rest of our Company. Although we expect that the realization of efficiencies related to
the integration of any acquired businesses will offset the incremental transaction and acquisition-related costs over time, this net financial
benefit may not be achieved in the near term, or at all.
Inability to Continue Developing New Products.
Our ability to continue to grow organically is
tied in large part to our ability to continue to develop new products. A failure to continue to develop and deliver new, innovative, and
competitive products to the market could limit sales growth and negatively impact our Company and our financial condition, results of
operations and cash flow.
Risks associated with climate change and other environmental
impacts, and increased focus and evolving views of our customers, shareholders, and other stakeholders on climate change issues, could
negatively affect our business and operations.
The effects of climate change create short and
long-term financial risks to our business, both in the U.S. and globally. We have significant operations located in regions that have
been, and may in the future be, exposed to significant weather events and other natural disasters. Climate related changes can increase
variability in or otherwise impact natural disasters, including weather patterns, with the potential for increased frequency and severity
of significant weather events (e.g., flooding, hurricanes, and tropical storms), natural hazards (e.g., increased wildfire risk), rising
mean temperature and sea levels, and long-term changes in precipitation patterns (e.g., drought, desertification, and/or poor water quality).
We expect climate change could affect our facilities, operations, employees, and communities in the future, particularly at facilities
in coastal areas and areas prone to extreme weather events and water scarcity. Our suppliers are also subject to natural disasters that
could affect their ability to deliver or perform under our contracts, including as a result of disruptions to their workforce and critical
infrastructure. Disruptions also impact the availability and cost of materials needed for manufacturing and could increase insurance and
other operating costs.
Increased worldwide focus on climate change has
led to legislative and regulatory efforts to combat both potential causes and adverse impacts of climate change, including regulation
of greenhouse gas emissions. New or more stringent laws and regulations related to greenhouse gas emissions and other climate change related
concerns may adversely affect us, our suppliers, and our customers. Some of our facilities are, for example, engaged in manufacturing
processes that produce greenhouse gas emissions, including carbon dioxide, or rely on products from others that do so. We have worked
for years to reduce our reliance on fossil-based energy sources, to decrease our greenhouse gas emissions, to reduce our consumption of
water and production of waste, and to ensure our compliance with environmental regulations where we operate, enhancing our record of environmental
sustainability. However, new, and evolving laws and regulations could mandate different or more restrictive standards, could require capital
investments to transition to low carbon technologies, could adversely impact our ongoing operations, and could require changes on a more
accelerated time frame. Our suppliers may face similar challenges and incur additional compliance costs that are passed on to us. These
direct and indirect costs may adversely impact our results
We may be adversely affected by the effects
of inflation.
Inflation in wages, materials, parts, equipment,
and other costs has the potential to adversely affect our results of operations, cash flows and financial position by increasing our overall
cost structure, particularly if we are unable to achieve commensurate increases in the prices, we charge our customers for our products
and services. In addition, the existence of inflation in the economy has the potential to result in higher interest rates, which could
result in higher borrowing costs, supply shortages, increased costs of labor, weakening exchange rates and other similar effects. The
Company has currently experienced inflationary pressures on its supply chain due to increased shipping costs, increased energy prices
for manufacture of our commercial products as well as increased prices from suppliers of raw materials. We have so far been able to offset
inflationary pressure to consumers but it cannot be guaranteed that that our results of operations will not be adversely affected by inflation
in the future and could reduce sales and/or operating margins, and overall financial performance.
We are Dependent on the Availability of Raw Materials, Parts
and Components Used in our Products.
While the Company manufactures certain parts and
components used in its products, the Company also requires substantial amounts of raw materials and purchases certain parts and components
from suppliers. The availability of and prices for raw materials, parts and components may be subject to curtailment or change due to,
among other things, suppliers’ allocations to other purchasers, interruptions in production by suppliers, including due to geopolitical
or civil unrest, unfavorable economic or industry conditions, labor disruptions, supply chain disruptions, catastrophic weather events,
natural disasters, the occurrence of a contagious disease or illness, changes in exchange rates and prevailing price levels. Any change
in the supply of, or price for, these raw materials or parts and components could materially affect the Company and its financial condition,
results of operations and cash flow.
Using the recent example of our acquisition, Bull
Head Products Inc., the demand for new trucks has not declined during Covid-19, but instead there was a delay in the delivery of new Pickup
trucks due to a shortage of electronic chips. Historically, 68% of the truck beds built by Bull Head Products are for installation of
a truck bed on a new pickup truck. There has not been a significant shift to installation on older trucks, but instead, the customers
wait for confirmation of the delivery of new trucks before ordering a new truck bed. Bull Head Products Inc. also has order backlogs of
over 9 months due to customers waiting for their new trucks to be delivered. One-third of our current enquiries are impacted by a delay
in delivery of new pick-up trucks, which presents a risk to Bull Head Products Inc.
Increases in the price of commodities could impact the cost or
price of our products, which could impact our ability to sustain and grow earnings.
Our manufacturing processes consume significant
amounts of raw materials, the costs of which are subject to worldwide supply and demand factors, as well as other factors beyond our control.
Raw material price fluctuations may adversely affect our results. We purchase, directly and indirectly through component purchases, significant
amounts of plastic, aluminum, steel, and other raw materials. In the past raw material prices have experienced volatility which has been
unforeseen and unexpected. Commodity pricing has fluctuated over the past few years and may continue to do so in the future. Such fluctuations
could have a material effect on our results of operations, balance sheets and cash flows and impact the comparability of our results between
financial periods.
We May be Subject to Loss in Market Share and Market Acceptance
as a Result of Performance Failures, Manufacturing Errors, Delays or Shortages.
There is a risk that for unforeseen reasons we
may be required to repair or replace products in use or to reimburse customers for products that fail to work or meet strict performance
criteria. To date, we have experienced some product failures related to electronic and mechanical components within equipment and vehicles.
These are either repaired under warranty or at cost to the customer or under a maintenance agreement.
Other disruptions in the supply
chain process or product sales and fulfilment systems for any reason, including equipment malfunction, failure to follow specific protocols
and procedures, supplier facility shut-downs, defective raw materials, wars and conflict, natural disasters such as hurricanes, tornadoes
or wildfires, property damage from riots, and other environmental factors and the impact of epidemics or pandemics, such as Covid-19,
and actions by businesses, communities and governments in response, could lead to launch delays, product shortage, unanticipated costs,
lost revenues and damage to our reputation.
We have taken steps to limit remedies for product
failure to the repair or replacement of malfunctioning or non-compliant products or services, and also attempt to exclude or minimize
exposure to product and related liabilities by including in our standard agreements warranty disclaimers and disclaimers for consequential
and related damages as well as limitations on our aggregate liability. From time to time, in certain sales transactions, we may negotiate
liability provisions that vary from such standard forms. There is a risk that our contractual provisions may not adequately minimize our
product and related liabilities or that such provisions may be unenforceable. We intend to carry product liability insurance, but coverage
we secure may not be adequate to cover potential claims. Moreover, to the extent we have to repair, reimburse, or expend funds to cover
customer service issues, our results of operations will be negatively affected.
We Will Rely in Part Upon Sales Reps, Retailers and Distribution
Partners to Distribute our Products, and We May Be Adversely Affected if Those Parties do not Actively Promote our Products or Pursue
Customers Who Would Have a Potential Demand for our Products.
We estimate that a significant portion of our revenue
will come from sales to partners through sales reps, retailers, distributors, and resellers. Some of these relationships have not been
formalized in detailed contracts and may be subject to termination at any time. Even where these relationships are formalized in a detailed
contract, the agreements are often terminable with little or no notice and subject to periodic amendment. We cannot control the amount
and timing of resources that our partners devote to activities on our behalf.
We intend to continue to seek strategic relationships
to distribute, license and sell certain of our products. We, however, may not be able to negotiate acceptable relationships in the future
and cannot predict whether current or future relationships will be successful.
The Markets the Company operates in are Highly Competitive which
Could Reduce Sales and Operating Margins.
Most of the Company’s products are sold in
competitive markets. Maintaining and improving a competitive position will require continued investment in manufacturing, engineering,
quality standards, marketing, customer service and support and distribution networks. The Company may not be successful in maintaining
its competitive position. The Company’s competitors may develop products and methods that are more efficient or may adapt quicker
to new technologies or evolving customer requirements. The Company may not be able to compete successfully with existing competitors or
with new competitors. Pricing pressures may require the Company to adjust the prices of products to stay competitive. Failure to continue
competing successfully could reduce sales, operating margins, and overall financial performance.
The Company’s Business Operations May Be Adversely Affected
by Information Systems Interruptions or Cybersecurity Intrusions.
The Company depends on various information technologies
to administer, store, and support multiple business activities. If these systems are damaged, cease to function properly or are subject
to cyber-security attacks, such as those involving unauthorized access, malicious software and/or other intrusions, the Company could
experience production downtimes, operational delays, other detrimental impacts on operations or the ability to provide products and services
to its customers, the compromising of confidential or otherwise protected information, destruction or corruption of data, security breaches,
other manipulation or improper use of the Company’s systems or networks, financial losses from remedial actions, loss of business
or potential liability, penalties, fines and/or damage to the Company’s reputation. While the Company attempts to mitigate these
risks by employing a number of measures, including having hired an IT manager with cyber security expertise, who reports directly to our
management team, employee training, technical security controls and maintenance of backup and protective systems, the Company’s
systems, networks, products, and services remain potentially vulnerable to known or unknown threats, any of which could have a material
adverse effect on the Company and its financial condition or results of operations. Further, given the unpredictability, nature, and scope
of cyber-security attacks, it is possible that potential vulnerabilities could go undetected for an extended period. We have currently
not been subject to material cybersecurity breaches in our supply chain, software, or services used in our products, services, or business.
A severe future cybersecurity incident in our supply chain could however reduce sales, operating margins, and overall financial performance.
With the strategy establishing and expanding our
defense subsidiary, which may become involved in defense contracting, we may face increased cyber and security threats that can range
from attacks common to most industries, but could have even greater financial or reputational impact, to advanced persistent threats on
our defense programs, which could involve information that is considered a matter of national security.
We are dependent on the availability of raw materials, parts,
and components used in our products.
While the Company manufactures
certain parts and components used in its products, the Company also requires substantial amounts of raw materials and purchases certain
parts and components from suppliers. The availability of and prices for raw materials, parts and components may be subject to curtailment
or change due to, among other things, suppliers’ allocations to other purchasers, interruptions in production by suppliers, including
due to geopolitical or civil unrest, unfavorable economic or industry conditions, labor disruptions, supply chain disruptions, catastrophic
weather events, natural disasters, the occurrence of a contagious disease or illness, changes in exchange rates and prevailing price
levels. Any change in the supply of, or price for, these raw materials or parts and components could materially affect the Company and
its financial condition, results of operations and cash flow. For instance, the war in Ukraine affected the geopolitical stability in
Serbia. Consequently, the company postponed the production of electric vehicles in Serbia temporarily until after the Serbian election
and kept our manufacturing of E-Raptor range of commercial electric Utility Vehicles in the UAE to mitigate the risk for operational
and supply chain disruptions. ILUS commenced the production after the Serbian election and expects the first E-Raptor 6x6 models to roll
off the Kragujevac production line in Q4 2023. We cannot assure in the future that such incidents can significantly affect our supply
chain and impact our financial and operational outlook.
Our long-term success depends, in part, on our ability to operate
and expand internationally, and our business is susceptible to risks associated with international operations.
Currently, we maintain operations in the United
States, the United Kingdom, the Republic of Serbia and the United Arab Emirates, and plan to continue our efforts to expand globally,
in jurisdictions where we do not currently operate including, but not limited to, Spain, Uruguay and South Africa. The Company expects
international operations and export sales to continue to constitute the majority of our sales and assets in the foreseeable future. For
the year ended December 31, 2022, the international operations constituted approximately 84% of our total sales of which part of the international
operation include international sales to US costumers. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the international operations constituted
approximately 99% of our total assets.
Managing a global organization is difficult, time
consuming and expensive, and any international expansion efforts that we undertake may not be profitable in the near or long term. Although
we have operating experience in many foreign jurisdictions, we must still continue to make significant investments to build our international
operations. The Company’s sales from international operations and sales from export are both subject in varying degrees to risks
inherent in doing business outside the U.S. These risks include the following:
|
■ |
Costs, risks
and uncertainties associated with tailoring our services in international jurisdictions as needed to better address both the needs
of customers, and the threats of local competitors; |
|
■ |
Risks of
economic instability, including due to inflation; |
|
■ |
Uncertainties
in forecasting revenues and expenses in markets where we have not previously operated; |
|
■ |
Costs and
risks associated with local and national laws and regulations governing the industries in which we operate, health and safety, climate
change and sustainability, and labor and employment; |
|
■ |
Operational
and compliance challenges caused by distance, language, and cultural differences; |
|
■ |
Costs and
risks associated with compliance with international tax laws and regulations; |
|
■ |
Costs and
risks associated with compliance with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and other laws in the United States related to conducting
business outside the United States, as well as the laws and regulations of non-U.S. jurisdictions governing bribery and other corrupt
business activities; |
|
■ |
Costs and
risks associated with human trafficking, modern slavery and forced labor reporting, training and due diligence laws and regulations
in various jurisdictions; |
|
■ |
Being subject
to other laws and regulations, including laws governing online advertising and other Internet activities, email and other messaging,
collection and use of personal information, ownership of intellectual property, taxation and other activities important to our online
business practices; |
|
■ |
Currency
exchange rate fluctuations and restrictions on currency repatriation; |
|
■ |
Competition with companies that understand the local market better than we do or that have preexisting relationships with regulators and customers in those markets; |
|
■ |
Adverse effects resulting from the U.K.’s exit from the European Union (commonly known as “Brexit”) |
|
■ |
Reduced or varied protection for intellectual property rights in some countries; |
|
■ |
Disruption of operations from labor and political disturbances; |
|
■ |
Withdrawal from or renegotiation of international trade agreements and other restrictions on the trade between the United States and other countries; |
|
■ |
Changes in tariff and trade barriers; and |
|
■ |
geopolitical events, including natural disasters, climate change, public health issues, political instability (such as war between Ukraine and Russia), terrorism, insurrection, or war. |
Entry into certain transactions with foreign entities
now or in the future may be subject to government regulations, including review related to foreign direct investment by U.S. or foreign
government entities. If a transaction with a foreign entity is subject to regulatory review, such regulatory review might limit our ability
to enter into the desired strategic alliance and thus our ability to carry out our long-term business strategy.
Operating in international markets also requires
significant management attention and financial resources. The investment and additional resources required to establish operations and
manage growth in other countries may not produce desired levels of revenue or profitability and could instead result in increased costs
without a corresponding benefit. We cannot guarantee that our international operations or expansion efforts will be successful.
Any of these events as well as related events not
aforementioned, could have a materially adverse impact on the Company and its operations.
Uncertainty Related to Environmental Regulation and Industry
Standards, as well as Physical Risks of Climate Change, Could Impact the Company’s Results of Operations and Financial Position.
Increased public awareness and concern regarding
environmental risks, including global climate change, may result in more international, regional and/or federal requirements or industry
standards to reduce or mitigate global warming and other environmental risks. New climate change laws and regulations could require the
Company to change its manufacturing processes or obtain substitute materials that may cost more or be less available for its manufacturing
operations. Various jurisdictions in which the Company does business have implemented, or in the future could implement or amend, restrictions
on emissions of carbon dioxide or other greenhouse gases, limitations or restrictions on water use, the production of single use plastics,
regulations on energy management and waste management and other climate change-based rules and regulations, which may increase the Company’s
expenses and adversely affect its operating results. In addition, the physical risks of climate change may impact the availability and
cost of materials, sources and supply of energy, product demand and manufacturing and could increase insurance and other operating costs.
The expected future increased worldwide regulatory activity relating to climate change could expand the nature, scope, and complexity
of matters that the Company is required to control, assess, and report. If environmental laws or regulations or industry standards are
either changed or adopted and impose significant operational restrictions and compliance requirements upon the Company, its suppliers,
its customers or its products, or the Company’s operations are disrupted due to physical impacts of climate change on the Company, its
customers or its suppliers, the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely impacted.
Significant Movements in Foreign Currency Exchange Rates May
Harm the Company’s Financial Results.
The Company is exposed to fluctuations in foreign
currency exchange rates, particularly with respect to the Euro, British Pound, Indian Rupee, UAE Dirham and Serbian Dinar. Any significant
change in the value of the currencies of the countries in which the Company does business against the U.S. Dollar could affect the
Company’s ability to sell products competitively and control its cost structure, which could have a material adverse effect on results
of operations.
A Significant or Sustained Decline in Commodity Prices Including
Oil Could Negatively Impact the Levels of Expenditures by Certain of the Company’s Customers.
Demand for the Company’s products depends,
in part, on the level of new and planned expenditures by certain of its customers. The level of expenditures by the Company’s customers
is dependent on, among other factors, general economic conditions, availability of credit, economic conditions within their respective
industries and expectations of future market behavior. The Company’s profitability may be adversely affected during any periods
of unexpected or rapid increases in interest rates and volatility in commodity prices, including
oil, can negatively affect the level of these activities and especially impact our Industrial
& Manufacturing division and can result in postponement of capital spending decisions or the delay or cancellation of existing
orders. The ability of the Company’s customers to finance capital investment and maintenance may also be affected by the conditions
in their industries. Reduced demand for the Company’s products could result in the delay or cancellation of existing orders or lead
to excess manufacturing capacity, which unfavorably impacts the absorption of fixed manufacturing costs. This reduced demand could have
a material adverse effect on the Company and its financial condition and results of operations.
We are dependent on financing for the
continuation of our operations.
It can at times be difficult to predict our capital
needs on a monthly, quarterly, or annual basis. Our future is dependent upon our ability to obtain profitable operations or financing.
We reserve the right to seek additional funds through private placements of our common stock and/or through debt financing. We do not
have financing in place at this time for all future planned acquisitions. We may not have access to financing or on terms that are acceptable
to us. Any lack of funds from operations or fundraisings for any shortage could be detrimental to our ability to continue operations and
negatively impact us and our financial condition, results of operations and cash flow.
Risks Related to Legal, Accounting and Regulatory
Matters
An Unfavorable Outcome of Any Pending Contingencies or Litigation
Could Adversely Affect the Company.
We have been named as a defendant in a lawsuit,
and we may be named in additional litigation, all of which will require significant management time and attention and result in significant
legal expenses and may result in an unfavorable outcome, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition,
results of operations and cash flows.
We have been named as a defendant in an action
commenced by our former CEO, Larson Elmore. A case also has been filed in the Eight Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada (Case
No. A-22-858343-C). Plaintiff alleges that we breached a stock purchase agreement dated May 10, 2020, and promissory notes and is therefore
entitled to damages. We have potential counterclaims against the former CEO which are being prepared due to improper action and lack of
disclosures. The company has disputed the claim and argue that Larson Elmore has been misleading
the company and its shareholders on various matters including but not limited to liabilities, company commitments and due diligence items
presented by Larson Elmore during the takeover process. We are in the process of a settlement discussion and have obtained an extension
of time to respond while this process occurs.
We have been named as a defendant
in an action commenced by Steve Nicol, who claims that he loaned $12,000 on or about May 23, 2017, to Cache Cabinetry, LLC a subsidiary
of ILUS under a promissory note, but that ILUS agreed to assume the note. He further claims that he elected to convert the note and that
ILUS failed to convert the note into shares of ILUS common stock. He has alleged breach of contract, declaratory relief, and specific
performance to require the company to issue 75,000,000 shares of common stock in ILUS. The company obtained a settlement on September
6, 2023, and awaits the final court order.
We have been named as a defendant
in an action commenced by Black Ice Advisors LLC, regarding a historic note entered into by the previous CEO, Larson Elmore with a principal
amount of $4,000. The company dispute the legitimacy of the note. On June 5, 2023, we got a service of process by Superior Court of California,
County of San Diego, with a reschedule hearing on March 3, 2024. On August 22, 2023, the company received information that Black Ice
Advisors withdrew their prior demand for shares with a new motion seeking a monetary judgment in Black Ice’s in the amount of $3.772
million for the historic note with a principal amount of $4,000. At a hearing on November 3, 2023, the Court adopted its tentative ruling
as the final ruling and denied the motion for summary judgement from Black Ice Advisors LLC. The case has received a trial date
for March 8, 2024.
We cannot predict whether the action against involving
our former CEO, Black Ice Advisors or Mr. Nicol is likely to result in any material recovery by or expense to our company. In general,
we lack much information and evidence to support the assertions of financial statements prior to the current management taking over and
there are chances that preceding management of the company might have missed compliances for which we are not aware. Thus, the company
may have to bear consequences for that from authorities. We cannot reasonably ascertain an amount for those contingencies.
Where it is reasonably possible to do so, the Company
accrues estimates of the probable costs for the resolution of these matters. These estimates are based upon an analysis of potential results
and settlement strategies. It is possible, however, that future operating results for any particular quarter or annual period could be
affected by changes in assumption.
We may continue to incur legal fees in responding
to these and other lawsuits. The expense of defending such litigation may be significant and any sizeable verdict may adversely affect
the company. The amount of time to resolve this and any additional lawsuits is unpredictable, and these actions may divert management’s
attention from the day-to-day operations of our business, all of which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and
cash flows. For additional detail related to this risk, see Item 8, “Legal Proceedings”.
The Sale of our Products Involves Potential Product Liability
and Related Risks that Could Expose us to Significant Insurance and Loss Expenses.
We face an inherent risk of exposure to product
liability claims if the use of our products results in, or is believed to have resulted in, illness or injury. Any product liability claim
may increase our costs and adversely affect our revenue and operating income. Moreover, liability claims arising from a serious adverse
event may increase our costs through higher insurance premiums and deductibles for our insurances we have with Firebug Group, Georgia
Fire and Bull Head Products and may make it more difficult to secure adequate insurance coverage in the future. In addition, our product
liability insurance may fail to cover future product liability claims, which, if adversely determined, could subject us to substantial
monetary damages. Georgia Fire, Bull Head Products and Firebug all have General Liability Cover.
Failure by us to Maintain the Proprietary Nature of our Technology,
Intellectual Property and Manufacturing Processes Could Have a Material Adverse Effect on our Business, Operating Results, Financial Condition,
Stock Price, and on our Ability to Compete Effectively.
We principally rely upon patent, trademark, copyright,
trade secret and contract law to establish and protect our proprietary rights. There is a risk that claims allowed on any patent licenses
or trademarks we hold may not be broad enough to protect our technology. In addition, our patent licenses or trademarks may be challenged,
invalidated or circumvented and we cannot be certain that the rights granted thereunder will provide competitive advantages to us. Moreover,
any current or future issued or licensed patents, or trademarks, or currently existing or future developed trade secrets or know-how may
not afford sufficient protection against competitors with similar technologies or processes, and the possibility exists that certain of
our already issued patents or trademarks may infringe upon third party patents or trademarks or be designed around by others. In addition,
there is a risk that others may independently develop proprietary technologies and processes, which are the same as, substantially equivalent,
or superior to ours, or become available in the market at a lower price.
In addition, foreign laws treat the protection
of proprietary rights differently from laws in the United States and may not protect our proprietary rights to the same extent as U.S.
laws. The failure of foreign laws or judicial systems to adequately protect our proprietary rights or intellectual property, including
intellectual property developed on our behalf by foreign contractors or subcontractors may have a material adverse effect on our business,
operations, financial results, and stock price.
There is a risk that we have infringed or in the
future will infringe patents or trademarks owned by others, that we will need to acquire licenses under patents or trademarks belonging
to others for technology potentially useful or necessary to us, and that licenses will not be available to us on acceptable terms, if
at all.
We may have to litigate to enforce our patents
or trademarks or to determine the scope and validity of other parties’ proprietary rights. Litigation could be very costly and divert
management’s attention. An adverse outcome in any litigation may have a severe negative effect on our financial results and stock
price. To determine the priority of inventions, we may have to participate in interference proceedings declared by the United States Patent
and Trademark Office or oppositions in foreign patent and trademark offices, which could result in substantial cost and limitations on
the scope or validity of our patents or trademarks.
We also rely on trade secrets and proprietary know-how,
which we seek to protect by confidentiality agreements with our employees, consultants, service providers and third parties. There is
a risk that these agreements may be breached, and that the remedies available to us may not be adequate. In addition, our trade secrets
and proprietary know-how may otherwise become known to or be independently discovered by others.
Compliance with Changing Regulation of Corporate Governance and
Public Disclosure May Result in Additional Expenses.
Changing laws, regulations and standards relating
to corporate governance and public disclosure, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and new SEC regulations, are creating uncertainty
for companies such as ours. These new or changed laws, regulations and standards are subject to varying interpretations in many cases
due to their lack of specificity, and as a result, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory
and governing bodies, which could result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and higher costs necessitated by ongoing
revisions to disclosure and governance practices. We are committed to maintaining high standards of corporate governance and public disclosure.
As a result, we intend to invest resources to comply with evolving laws, regulations and standards, and this investment may result in
increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance
activities. If our efforts to comply with new or changed laws, regulations and standards differ from the activities intended by regulatory
or governing bodies due to ambiguities related to practice, our reputation may be harmed.
If we Fail to Comply with the Rules under the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act Related to Accounting Controls and Procedures, or if Material Weaknesses or Other Deficiencies are Discovered in our Internal Accounting
Procedures, our Stock Price Could Decline Significantly.
Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires
annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting. We are in the process of documenting
and testing our internal control procedures, and we may identify material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting
and other deficiencies. If material weaknesses and deficiencies are detected, it could cause investors to lose confidence in our Company
and result in a decline in our stock price and consequently affect our financial condition. In addition, if we fail to achieve and maintain
the adequacy of our internal controls, we may not be able to ensure that we can conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal
controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Moreover, effective internal controls, particularly
those related to revenue recognition, are necessary for us to produce reliable financial reports and are important to helping prevent
financial fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our business and operating results could be harmed,
investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information, and the trading price of our Common Stock could drop significantly.
In addition, we cannot be certain that additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in our internal controls will not be
discovered in the future.
Failure To Comply with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act,
the U.K. Bribery Act or Other Applicable Anti-bribery Laws Could Have an Adverse Effect on the Company.
The U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the U.K.
Bribery Act and similar anti-bribery laws in other jurisdictions generally prohibit companies and their intermediaries from making improper
payments for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. Recent years have seen a substantial increase in anti-bribery law enforcement
activity with more frequent and aggressive investigations and enforcement proceedings by both the Department of Justice and the SEC, increased
enforcement activity by non-U.S. regulators and increases in criminal and civil proceedings brought against companies and individuals.
The Company’s policies mandate compliance with all anti-bribery laws. However, the Company operates in certain countries that are
recognized as having governmental and commercial corruption. The Company’s internal control policies and procedures may not always
protect it from reckless or criminal acts committed by employees or third-party intermediaries. Violations of these anti-bribery laws
may result in criminal or civil sanctions, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company and its financial condition and results
of operations.
Changes in Tax laws or Exposure to Additional Income Tax Liabilities
Could have a Material Impact on our Company, the Results of Operations, Financial Conditions and Cash Flows.
We are subject to income taxes, as well as non-income-based
taxes in the jurisdictions in which we operate, as well as jurisdictions such as the United States, in which we intend to have operations.
The tax laws in these could change on a prospective or retroactive basis, and any such changes could adversely affect us and our effective
tax rate.
Taxation regulation in territories around the world
can also change very quickly, which may mean that all the implications for businesses may not have been fully thought through by the regulating
authorities before final guidelines and laws are issued. Furthermore, any changes made by tax authorities, together with other legislative
changes, to the mandatory sharing of company information (financial and operational) with tax authorities on both a local and global basis,
could lead to disagreements between jurisdictions with respect to the proper allocation of profits between such jurisdictions. We therefore
continuously monitor changes to tax regulation and double tax treaties between the territories in which we operate. We also maintain a
comprehensive transfer pricing policy to govern the flow of funds between various tax territories.
We are further subject to ongoing tax audits in
the various jurisdictions in which we operate. We regularly assess the likely outcomes of these audits in order to determine the appropriateness
of our tax provisions. However, there can be no assurance that we will accurately predict the outcomes of these audits, which could have
a material impact on the business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
While we have recorded reserves for potential payments
to various tax authorities related to uncertain tax positions, the calculation of such tax liabilities involves the application of complex
tax regulations in many jurisdictions. Therefore, any dispute with a tax authority may result in payment that is significantly different
from our estimates. If the payment proves to be less than the recorded reserves, the reversal of the liabilities would generally result
in tax benefits being recognized in the period when we determine the liabilities to be no longer necessary. Conversely, if the payment
proves to be more than the reserves, we could incur additional charges, and these could have a materially adverse effect on the business,
financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
Laws and Regulations Governing International Business Operations
Could Adversely Impact Our Company.
The US Department of the Treasury’s Office
of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”), and the Bureau of Industry and Security at the US Department of Commerce (“BIS”)
administer certain laws and regulations that restrict US persons and, in some instances, non-US persons, in conducting activities, transacting
business with, or making investments in certain countries, governments, entities and individuals subject to US economic sanctions.
Our international operations subject us to these
laws and regulations, which are complex, restrict business dealings with certain countries, governments, entities, and individuals, and
are constantly changing. Further restrictions may be enacted, amended, enforced, or interpreted in a manner that materially impacts our
operations. From time to time, certain subsidiaries have limited business dealings in countries subject to comprehensive sanctions.
Certain of our subsidiaries sell products, and
may provide related services, to distributors and other purchasing bodies in such countries. These business dealings represent an insignificant
amount of our consolidated revenues and income but expose us to a heightened risk of violating applicable sanctions regulations. Violations
of these regulations are punishable by civil penalties, including fines, denial of export privileges, injunctions, asset seizures, debarment
from government contracts and revocations or restrictions of licenses, as well as criminal fines and imprisonment.
We have established policies and procedures designed
to assist with compliance with such laws and regulations. However, there can be no assurance that these will prevent us from violating
these regulations in every transaction in which we may engage. As such a violation could adversely affect our reputation, business, financial
condition, results of operations and cash flows.
We are subject to changes in contract estimates
in our Defense and Industrial & Manufacturing Divisions
We account for substantially all long-term contracts
in the Defense and Industrial & Manufacturing Divisions utilizing the cost-to-cost method of percentage-of-completion accounting.
This accounting requires judgment relative to assessing risks, estimating revenues and costs, and making assumptions regarding the timing
of receipt of delivery orders from our customer and technical issues. Due to the size and nature of these contracts, the estimation of
total revenues and costs is complicated and subject to many variables. We must make assumptions regarding for example expected increases
in material costs, wages and employee benefits, engineering hours, productivity and availability of labor and allocated fixed costs. Changes
to production costs, overhead rates, learning curves and/or supplier performance can also impact these estimates. Furthermore, under the
revenue recognition accounting rules, we can only include units in our estimates of overall contract profitability after we have received
a firm delivery order for those units. Because new orders have the potential to significantly change the overall profitability of cumulative
orders received to date, particularly early in the contract when fewer overall units are on order, the period in which we receive those
orders will impact the estimated life-to-date contract profitability. Changes in underlying assumptions, circumstances or estimates could
have a material adverse effect on our net sales, financial condition and/or profitability.
General Risk Factors
The Company’s Success Depends on Its
Executive Management and Other Key Personnel.
The Company’s future success depends to a
significant degree on the skills, experience and efforts of its executive management and other key personnel and their ability to provide
the Company with uninterrupted leadership and direction. The loss of the services of any of the executive officers or a failure to provide
adequate succession plans for key personnel could have an adverse impact on the Company. The availability of highly qualified talent is
limited and the competition for talent is robust. However, the Company provides long-term equity awards and certain other benefits for
its executive officers which provides incentives for them to make a commitment to the Company. The Company’s future success will
depend on its ability to have adequate succession plans in place and to attract, retain and develop qualified personnel. A failure to
efficiently replace executive management members and other key personnel and to attract, retain and develop new qualified personnel could
have an adverse effect on the Company’s operations and implementation of its strategic plan.
Challenges with Respect to Labor Availability Could Negatively
Impact the Company’s Ability to Operate or Grow the Business.
The Company’s success depends in part on
the ability of its businesses to proactively attract, motivate, and retain a qualified and highly skilled workforce in an intensely competitive
labor market. A failure to attract, motivate and retain highly skilled personnel could adversely affect the Company’s operating
results or its ability to operate or grow the business. Additionally, any labor stoppages or labor disruptions, including due to geopolitical
unrest, unfavorable economic or industry conditions, catastrophic weather events, natural disasters or the occurrence of a contagious
disease or illness could adversely affect the Company’s operating results or its ability to operate or grow the business.
Risks Related to our Management and Control
Persons
Our largest shareholder, officer, director,
Nicolas Link holds substantial control over the company and is able to influence all corporate matters, which could be deemed by shareholders
as not always being in their best interests.
Nicolas Link, our Chief Executive
Officer (Principal Executive Officer & Chairman of the Board of Directors) with his company, FB Technologies Global, Inc. Dubai, U.A.E
, owns approximately 2% of the outstanding shares of common stock, owns all of the outstanding shares of Class A Preferred Stock, Class
B Preferred Stock and Class D Preferred Stock and owns 15% of the outstanding shares of Class F Preferred Stock.
Our common stock is entitled
to one vote per share on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders, including the election of directors. Each share of Class
A Preferred Stock is entitled to vote together with the holders of our common stock on all matters submitted to shareholders at a rate
of 500 votes, including the election of directors. Each share of Class D Preferred Stock is entitled to vote together with the holders
of our common stock on all matters submitted to shareholders at a rate of 500 votes, including the election of directors.
There are 1,379,080,699 shares
of common stock outstanding, which amounts to 1,379,080,699 votes on matters requiring a shareholder vote. While Mr. Link owns only 2%
of the outstanding common shares, with the Series A Preferred Stock that Mr. Link owns, he has the power over 5,000,000,000 votes and
with the Series D Preferred Stock, he has the power to over 30,370,500,000 additional votes on matters requiring a shareholder vote, including
the election of directors. He will have voting power over every aspect of our business.
By virtue of his ownership
of common stock and preferred stock, Mr. Link is able to exercise significant influence over all matters requiring approval by our stockholders,
including the election of directors, the approval of significant corporate transactions, and any change of control of our company.
Our officers and directors are located outside
of the U.S., so it will be difficult to effect service of process and enforcement of legal judgments upon our officers and directors.
Our officers and directors
are located outside of the United States and reside in the U.A.E, U.K. and Denmark. As a result, it may be difficult to effect service
of process within the United States and enforce judgments of the US courts obtained against our executive officers and directors. Particularly,
our shareholders may not be able to:
|
● |
Effect service of process in the U.S. on any of our officers and directors; |
|
|
|
|
● |
Enforce judgments obtained in U.S. courts against our officers and directors based upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws; |
|
|
|
|
● |
Enforce, in a court outside of the U.S., judgments of U.S. courts based on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
Bring an original action in a court in the U.A.E, U.K. or Denmark to enforce liabilities against any of our officers and directors based upon the U.S. federal securities laws. |
We are dependent on the continued services
of our Director and Chairman and if we fail to keep them or fail to attract and retain qualified senior executives and key technical personnel,
our business may not be able to expand.
We are dependent on the continued
availability of Chairman, Nicolas Link and Director, John-Paul Backwell, and the availability of new executives to implement our business
plans. The market for skilled employees is highly competitive, especially for employees in our industry. Although we expect that our planned
compensation programs will be intended to attract and retain the employees required for us to be successful, there can be no assurance
that we will be able to retain all our key employees or a sufficient number to execute our plans, nor can there be any assurance we will
be able to continue to attract new employees as required.
Our lack of adequate D&O 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 stockholder 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, but the company is currently investigating and plans to obtain one. 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 the Company could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity.
Furthermore, 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 Officers and Key Personnel may voluntarily
terminate their relationship with us at any time, and competition for qualified personnel is lengthy, costly, and disruptive.
If we lose the services of
our officers and key personnel and fail to replace them if they depart, we could experience a negative effect on our financial results
and stock price. The loss and our failure to attract, integrate, motivate, and retain additional key employees could have a material adverse
effect on our business, operating and financial results and stock price.
Certain of our officers and directors have other business pursuits
that might interfere with their work on our business.
Our key management and board
are also represented on the management and board of QIND, our subsidiary and our Chairman and CEO Nicolas Link is also the Chairman of
the Board of Directors of Dear Cashmere Holding Co. and the Chairman of the Board of Directors of CGrowth Capital, Inc. where he also
holds the voting control. As a result, at certain points in time, these jointly represented companies may have members of key management
and board concentrate their efforts on transactions that focus on one company over the other, which collectively would not amount to
work for our company on a full-time basis. Dear Cashmere Holding Co. and CGrowth Capital, Inc. are however not affiliated with ILUS or
any of its subsidiaries and each public company are independently responsible for its own funding. We estimate that our key management
will spend an average of 20% of their time on the company’s Subsidiary QIND and 80% on the parent company ILUS. This and other
conflicts of interest may arise between us and our officers and director in that they have other business interests currently, with respect
to ILUS, and in the future to which they devote their attention, such as in the case of acquisitions, and they may be expected to continue
to do so although management time must also be devoted to our business. These competing interests could disrupt focus of our key management
and board. As a result, conflicts of interest may arise that can be resolved only through exercise of such judgment as is consistent
with each officer or director’s understanding of his or her fiduciary duties to our company.
Currently we have only four officers and one director.
We will seek to add additional officers and/or directors with industry experience and when the proper personnel are located and terms
of employment are mutually negotiated and agreed, and we have sufficient capital resources and cash flow to make such appointments.
In an effort to resolve such potential conflicts
of interest as between ILUS and QIND, our officers and director have agreed that any opportunities that they are aware of independently
or directly through their association with us would be presented by them solely to ILUS, before determining whether to include the opportunities
in QIND or another subsidiary.
In general, our officers and director are required
to present business opportunities to ILUS, which may include QIND, if:
|
● |
ILUS could financially undertake the opportunity through QIND; and |
|
● |
the opportunity is aligned with the Industrial business of QIND. |
Potential
investors should also be aware of the following potential conflicts of interest:
None of our
officers or director is required to commit his or her full time to our company and, accordingly, may have conflicts of interest in allocating
his or her time among various business activities.
In the course
of their other business activities, our officers and directors may become aware of investment and business opportunities which may be
appropriate for presentation to us as well as the other entities with which they are affiliated.
Our officers
and directors may have a conflict of interest with respect to evaluating a particular business combination if the retention or resignation
of any such officers and directors was included by a target business as a condition to any agreement with respect to the combination.
Below is
a table summarizing the entities to which our executive officers and director currently have fiduciary duties or contractual obligations:

listed in this table of his obligations and the presentation by each such individual of business opportunities. |
We cannot provide assurances that our efforts to
eliminate the potential impact of conflicts of interest will be effective. We are at risk that our officers and directors will favor their
other business interest over the needs of our company. These competing business interests could interfere with our ability to successfully
implement our business plan.
Risks Relating to our Common Stock
We may conduct offerings of our equity securities
in the future, in which case your proportionate interest may become diluted.
We may be required to conduct
equity offerings in the future to finance our current projects or to finance subsequent projects that we decide to undertake. If our common
stock shares are issued in return for additional funds, the price per share could be lower than that paid by our current shareholders
but with the aim to increase overall value for all shareholders. We anticipate continuing to rely on equity sales of our common stock
shares in order to fund our business operations. If we issue additional common stock shares or securities convertible into shares of our
common stock, your percentage interest in us could become diluted.
Our common stock price may be volatile and
could fluctuate, which could result in substantial losses for investors.
Our common stock is quoted
on the OTC Pink Market under the symbol, “ILUS.” The market price of our common stock is likely to be volatile and could fluctuate
in price in response to various factors, many of which are beyond our control, including:
|
● |
government regulation of our Company and operations. |
|
● |
the establishment of partnerships. |
|
● |
intellectual property disputes. |
|
● |
additions or departures of key personnel. |
|
● |
sales of our common stock. |
|
● |
our ability to integrate operations, technology, products and services. |
|
● |
our ability to execute our business plan. |
|
● |
operating results below expectations. |
|
● |
loss of any strategic relationship. |
|
● |
economic and other external factors; and |
|
● |
period-to-period fluctuations in our financial results. |
In addition, the securities
markets have from time-to-time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of
particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
Sales of a substantial number of shares
of our common stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales could occur, could cause our stock price to fall.
The market price of our common stock could decline
significantly as a result of sales of a large number of shares of our common stock. If our existing stockholders sell, or indicate an
intention to sell, substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market after the contractual and securities law restrictions
on resale of such common stock lapse, or after those shares become registered for resale pursuant to an effective registration statement,
the trading price of our common stock could decline. As of March 31, 2023, a total of 1,379,080,699 shares of our common stock were outstanding.
Of those shares, 1,190,797,366 are currently without restriction, in the public market. Upon
the effectiveness of any registration statement, we could elect to file with respect to any outstanding shares of common stock, any sales
of those shares or any perception in the market that such sales may occur could cause the trading price of our common stock to decline.
The issuance of shares of our common stock upon conversion or
exercise of preferred stock, warrants and convertible notes, will dilute ownership to existing shareholders and may cause our stock price
to fall.
Any issuance of additional common stock by us in
the future as a result of the conversion or exercise of warrants, convertible notes, preferred stock or debt settlements would result
in dilution to our existing shareholders. Such issuances could be made at a price that reflects a discount or a premium to the then-current
trading price of our common stock. Moreover, the perception in the public market that shareholders might sell shares of our stock or that
we could make a significant issuance of additional common stock in the future could depress the market for our shares. These sales, or
the perception that these sales might occur, could depress the market price of our common stock or make it more difficult for us to sell
equity securities in the future at a time and at a price that we deem appropriate.
We have issued shares of our common stock, as well
as other securities such as warrants, convertible notes, preferred stock or debt settlements, which are convertible into shares of our
common stock, in financing transactions that are deemed to be “restricted securities,” as that term is defined in Rule 144
promulgated under the Securities Act. From time to time, certain of our shareholders or derivative security holders may be eligible to
sell all or some of their restricted shares of common stock by means of ordinary brokerage transactions in the open market pursuant to
Rule 144, subject to certain limitations. The resale pursuant to Rule 144 of shares acquired from us in private transactions could cause
our stock price to decline significantly.
We have never declared or paid any cash
dividends or distributions on our capital stock.
We have never declared or
paid any cash dividends or distributions on our capital stock. While we may not anticipate paying a dividend in the short-term and we
currently intend to retain short-term earnings for growth, we may do so in the medium to long-term future.
The declaration, payment and
amount of any future dividends will be made at the discretion of the board of directors, and will depend upon, among other things, the
results of our operations, cash flows and financial condition, operating and capital requirements, and other factors as the board of directors
considers relevant. There is no assurance that future dividends will be paid, and, if dividends are paid, there is no assurance with respect
to the amount of any such dividend.
We may become involved in securities class
action litigation that could divert management’s attention and harm our business.
The stock market in general, have experienced extreme
price and volume fluctuations. These fluctuations have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of the companies
involved. If these fluctuations occur in the future, the market price of our shares could fall regardless of our operating performance.
In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a particular company’s securities, securities class action litigation
has often been brought against that company. If the market price or volume of our shares suffers extreme fluctuations, then we may become
involved in this type of litigation, which would be expensive and divert management’s attention and resources from managing our
business.
As a public company, we may also from time to time
make forward-looking statements about future operating results and provide some financial guidance to the public markets. Projections
may not be timely made and set at expected performance levels and could affect the price of our shares.
Our common stock is currently deemed a “penny stock,”
which makes it more difficult for our investors to sell their shares.
Our common stock is currently deemed a “penny
stock,” which makes it more difficult for our investors to sell their shares. The SEC has adopted rule 3a51-1 which establishes
the definition of a “penny stock,” for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less
than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving
a penny stock, unless exempt, Rule 15g-9 requires:
|
● |
that a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks, and |
|
|
|
|
● |
the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased. |
In order to approve a person’s account for
transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:
|
● |
obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person, and |
|
|
|
|
● |
make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks. |
The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to
any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight
form:
|
● |
sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination and |
|
|
|
|
● |
that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction. |
Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute
transactions in securities subject to the “penny stock” rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of
our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.
If we do not have sufficient authorized common stock for potential
conversion of our outstanding Series B and Series D Preferred Stock, we could be at risk of breaching a forbearance agreement with the
shareholder, Nicolas Link.
The company is in the process of entering into a
forbearance agreement with Nicolas Link, the affiliate holder of our Series B and Series D Preferred Stock, to restrict him from converting
his preferred stock into common stock until the earlier of one year from listing with a national exchange or two years from the date of
the agreement. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion or exercise of outstanding preferred stock, warrants and
convertible notes upon entering the Forbearance agreement are appx 1.8bn shares and below the 2bn authorized number of shares. After the
forbearance period ends, we may be required to have sufficient shares of common stock available to accommodate future conversions of the
preferred stock.
If we breach our obligations under the forbearance
agreement with the holder of our Series B Preferred Stock and our Series D Preferred Stock, including our failure to convert the preferred
stock into shares of common stock as a result of an insufficient number of shares of authorized common stock available for issuance, we
would be in default of the agreement if Nicolas Link chooses to convert the applicable preferred stock into shares of common stock.
Risks Relating to Our Company and Industry
The success of our business depends on our ability to maintain
and enhance our reputation and brand.
We believe that our reputation in our industry
is of significant importance to the success of our business. A well-recognized brand is critical to increasing our customer base and,
in turn, increasing our revenue. Since the industry is highly competitive, our ability to remain competitive depends to a large extent
on our ability to maintain and enhance our reputation and brand, which could be difficult and expensive. To maintain and enhance our reputation
and brand, we need to successfully manage many aspects of our business, such as cost-effective marketing campaigns to increase brand recognition
and awareness in a highly competitive market. We cannot assure you, however, that these activities will be successful and achieve the
brand promotion goals we expect. If we fail to maintain and enhance our reputation and brand, or if we incur excessive expenses in our
efforts to do so, our business, financial conditions and results of operations could be adversely affected.
In the event that we are unable to successfully compete in our
industry, we may not see lower profit margins
We face substantial competition in our industry.
Due to our smaller size, it can be assumed that some of our competitors have greater financial, technical, and other competitive resources.
Accordingly, these competitors may have already begun to establish superior technologies in our industry. We will attempt to compete against
these competitors by developing technology that exceed what is offered by our competitors. However, we cannot assure you that our technology
will outperform competing technology, or that our competitors will not develop new products or services that exceed what we provide. In
addition, we may face competition based on price. If our competitors lower the prices on their products, then it may not be possible for
us to market our products at prices that are economically viable. Increased competition could result in:
|
● |
Lower than projected revenues; |
|
● |
Price reductions and lower profit margins. |
|
|
|
Any one of these results could adversely affect our business,
financial condition, and results of operations.
In addition, our competitors may develop competing products that achieve
greater market acceptance. It is also possible that new competitors may emerge and acquire significant market share. Our inability to
achieve sales and revenue due to competition will have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
If we are unable to successfully manage growth, our operations
could be adversely affected.
Our progress is expected to require the full utilization
of our management, financial and other resources. Our ability to manage growth effectively will depend on our ability to improve and expand
operations, including our financial and management information systems, and to recruit, train and manage personnel. There can be no absolute
assurance that management will be able to manage growth effectively.
If we do not properly manage the growth of our
business, we may experience significant strains on our management and operations and disruptions in our business. Various risks arise
when companies and industries grow quickly. If our business or industry grows too quickly, our ability to meet customer demand in a timely
and efficient manner could be challenged. We may also experience development delays as we seek to meet increased demand for our services
and platform. Our failure to properly manage the growth that we or our industry might experience could negatively impact our ability to
execute on our operating plan and, accordingly, could have an adverse impact on our business, our cash flow and results of operations,
and our reputation with our current or potential customers.
We may fail to successfully integrate acquisitions or otherwise
be unable to benefit from pursuing acquisitions.
We believe there are meaningful opportunities to
grow through acquisitions and joint ventures across all service categories and we expect to continue a strategy of selectively identifying
and acquiring businesses with complementary services. We may be unable to identify, negotiate, and complete suitable acquisition opportunities
on reasonable terms. There can be no assurance that any business acquired by us will be successfully integrated with our operations or
prove to be profitable to us. We may incur future liabilities related to acquisitions. Should any of the following problems, or others,
occur as a result of our acquisition strategy, the impact could be material:
|
● |
difficulties integrating personnel from acquired entities and other corporate cultures into our business; difficulties integrating information systems; |
|
● |
the potential loss of key employees of acquired companies; |
|
● |
the assumption of liabilities and exposure to undisclosed or unknown liabilities of acquired companies; or the diversion of management attention from existing operations. |
The elimination of monetary liability against our directors,
officers and employees under our Articles of Incorporation and the existence of indemnification rights to our directors, officers and
employees may result in substantial expenditures by our Company and may discourage lawsuits against our directors, officers, and employees.
Our Articles of Incorporation contain provisions
that eliminate the liability of our directors for monetary damages to our Company and shareholders. Our bylaws also require us to indemnify
our officers and directors. We may also have contractual indemnification obligations under our agreements with our directors, officers,
and employees. The foregoing indemnification obligations could result in our company incurring substantial expenditures to cover the cost
of settlement or damage awards against directors, officers, and employees that we may be unable to recoup. These provisions and resulting
costs may also discourage our company from bringing a lawsuit against directors, officers, and employees for breaches of their fiduciary
duties, and may similarly discourage the filing of derivative litigation by our shareholders against our directors, officers, and employees
even though such actions, if successful, might otherwise benefit our Company and shareholders.
We provide integrated project management services in the form
of long-term, fixed price contracts that may require us to assume additional risks associated with cost over-runs, operating cost inflation,
labor availability and productivity, supplier and contractor pricing and performance, and potential claims for liquidated damages.
We provide integrated project management services
outside our normal discrete business in the form of long-term, fixed price contracts. Some of these contracts are required by our customers,
primarily international oil companies and defense companies. These services include acting as project managers as well as service providers
and may require us to assume additional risks associated with cost over-runs. These customers may provide us with inaccurate information
in relation to their reserves, which is a subjective process that involves location and volume estimation, that may result in cost over-runs,
delays, and project losses. In addition, our customers often operate in countries with unsettled political conditions, war, civil unrest,
or other types of community issues. These issues may also result in cost over-runs, delays, and project losses.
Providing services on an integrated basis may also
require us to assume additional risks associated with operating cost inflation, labor availability and productivity, supplier pricing
and performance, and potential claims for liquidated damages. We rely on third-party subcontractors and equipment providers to assist
us with the completion of these types of contracts. To the extent that we cannot engage subcontractors or acquire equipment or materials
in a timely manner and on reasonable terms, our ability to complete a project in accordance with stated deadlines or at a profit may be
impaired. If the amount we are required to pay for these goods and services exceeds the amount we have estimated in bidding for fixed-price
work, we could experience losses in the performance of these contracts. These delays and additional costs may be substantial, and we may
be required to compensate our customers for these delays. This may reduce the profit to be realized or result in a loss on a project.
We
may experience unexpected supply shortages.
We distribute products from
a wide variety of manufacturers and suppliers. Nevertheless, in the future we may have difficulty obtaining the products we need from
suppliers and manufacturers as a result of unexpected demand or production difficulties. Also, products may not be available to us in
quantities sufficient to meet our customer demand. Our inability to obtain sufficient products from suppliers and manufacturers, in sufficient
quantities, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. For instance, the war
in Ukraine affected the geopolitical stability in Serbia. Consequently, the company postponed the production of electric vehicles in
Serbia temporarily until after the Serbian election and kept our manufacturing of E-Raptor range of commercial electric Utility Vehicles
in the UAE to mitigate the risk for operational and supply chain disruptions. ILUS commenced the production after the Serbian election
and expects the first E-Raptor 6x6 models to roll off the Kragujevac production line in Q4 2023. We cannot assure in the future that
such incidents can significantly affect our supply chain and impact our financial and operational outlook.
A
substantial decrease in the price of steel could significantly lower our gross profit or cash flow.
We distribute
many products manufactured, some of which may contain steel and, as a result, our business may be significantly affected by the price
and supply of steel. When steel prices are lower, the prices that we charge customers for products may decline, which affects our gross
profit and cash flow. The steel industry as a whole is cyclical and at times pricing and availability of steel can be volatile due to
numerous factors beyond our control, including general domestic and international economic conditions, labor costs, sales levels, competition,
consolidation of steel producers, fluctuations in the costs of raw materials necessary to produce steel, import duties and tariffs and
currency exchange rates. When steel prices decline, customer demands for lower prices and our competitors’ responses to those demands
could result in lower sale prices and, consequently, lower gross profit or cash flow.
If
steel prices rise, we may be unable to pass along the cost increases to our customers.
We
maintain inventories of steel products to accommodate the lead time requirements of our customers. Accordingly, we purchase steel products
in an effort to maintain our inventory at levels that we believe to be appropriate to satisfy the anticipated needs of our customers based
upon historic buying practices, contracts with customers and market conditions. Our commitments to purchase steel products are generally
at prevailing market prices in effect at the time we place our orders. If steel prices increase between the time, we order steel products
and the time of delivery of such products to us, our suppliers may impose surcharges that require us to pay for increases in steel prices
during such period. Demand for the products we distribute, the actions of our competitors, and other factors will influence whether we
will be able to pass such steel cost increases and surcharges on to our customers, and we may be unsuccessful in doing so.
We are subject to increased risks associated
with our investments in emerging markets, particularly in the Middle East region and specifically in the United Arab Emirates. These risks
encompass significant political, social, and economic uncertainties in the region. Given the volatile nature of these markets, instabilities
in these regions could significantly adversely affect the value of our investments.
Almost all of ILUS’s operations are conducted,
and almost of its assets are, as at the date of this document, located in the UAE, which is defined as an emerging market. While most
of the countries in which ILUS conducts business have historically not been affected by political instability, there is no assurance that
any political, social, economic or market conditions affecting such countries in the Middle East region generally (as well as outside
the Middle East region because of interrelationships within the global financial markets) would not have a material adverse effect on
our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Specific risks in these countries and the Middle
East region that may have a material impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition include:
|
● |
ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty and disruption due to the COVID-19 pandemic; |
|
● |
an increase in inflation and the cost of living; |
|
● |
a devaluation in the currency of any country in which ILUS has operations; |
|
● |
external acts of warfare and civil clashes or other hostilities involving nations in the region; |
|
● |
governmental actions or interventions, including tariffs, protectionism and subsidies; |
|
● |
difficulties and delays in obtaining governmental or other approvals, new permits and consents for our operations or renewing existing ones; |
|
● |
potential lack of transparency or reliability in jurisdictions where ILUS operates; |
|
● |
cancellation of contractual rights; |
|
● |
lack of infrastructure; |
|
● |
expropriation or nationalization of assets; |
|
● |
inability to repatriate profits and/or dividends; |
|
● |
continued regional political instability and unrest, including government or military regime change, riots or other forms of civil disturbance or violence, including through acts of terrorism; |
|
● |
military strikes or the outbreak of war or other hostilities involving nations in the region; |
|
● |
a material curtailment of the industrial and economic infrastructure development that is currently underway across the Middle East region; |
|
● |
increased government regulations, or adverse governmental activities, with respect to price, import and export controls, the environment, customs and immigration, capital transfers, foreign exchange and currency controls, labor policies, land and water use and foreign ownership; |
|
● |
changing tax regimes, including the imposition of taxes in currently tax favorable jurisdictions; |
|
● |
arbitrary, inconsistent or unlawful government action, including capricious application of tax laws and selective tax audits; |
|
● |
limited availability of capital or debt financing; and |
|
● |
slowing regional and global economic environment. |
Any unexpected changes in
the political, social, economic or other conditions in which ILUS operates or neighboring countries may have a material adverse effect
on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
It is not possible to predict
the occurrence of events or circumstances such as or similar to those outlined above or the impact of such occurrences and no assurance
can be given that ILUS would be able to sustain its current profit levels if such events or circumstances were to occur.
Investors should also be aware
that emerging markets are subject to greater risks than more developed markets, including in some cases significant legal, economic and
political risks. Accordingly, investors should exercise particular care in evaluating the risks involved and must decide for themselves
whether, in light of those risks, their investment is appropriate. Generally, investment in developing markets is only suitable for sophisticated
investors who fully appreciate the significance of the risks involved.
To the extent that economic
growth or performance in the countries in which QIND operates slows or begins to decline, or political conditions become sufficiently
unstable to have a material adverse effect on QIND’s operations, QIND’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be
materially adversely affected.
We are exposed to risks from potentially
unpredictable legal and regulatory environments in the UAE and Middle East region.
ILUS currently operates in
an emerging market economy in the UAE, which are in various stages of developing institutions and legal and regulatory systems that are
not yet as fully matured and as established as those of Western Europe and the United States. Some of these countries are also in the
process of transitioning to a market economy and, as a result, are experiencing changes in their economies and their government policies
(including, without limitation, policies relating to foreign ownership, repatriation of profits, property and contractual rights and planning
and permit granting regimes) that may affect our business in those countries. Such countries are also characterized by less comprehensive
legal and regulatory environments and systems. Existing laws and regulations may be applied inconsistently with anomalies in their interpretation
or implementation. Such anomalies could affect our ability to enforce its rights under its contracts or to defend its business against
claims by others.
There can be no assurance
that if laws or regulations were imposed on the products and services offered by QIND it would not increase its costs, impact the costs
that are associated with buying properties in Dubai and internationally, adversely affect the way in which QIND conducts its business
or otherwise have a material adverse effect on its results of operations and financial condition.
Any of the above factors,
alone or in combination, may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
We are exposed to risks arising from
potential changes in the UAE’s visa legislation, which could adversely impact the business operations.
A federal decision No. 281
of 2009 issued by the Minister of the Interior in May 2009 (the “Resolution”), which came into effect on 1 June 2009,
standardized the terms of residency permits issued to expatriate residential property owners across the UAE. The decree allows expatriate
property owners to apply for renewable multiple-entry visas with a validity of six months. The residency permit does not entitle the holder
to work in the UAE and is in effect a long-term visit visa. In order to successfully apply for the new permit, expatriate property owners
must satisfy certain criteria, including a minimum property valuation of at least AED 1 million, earning thresholds and the maintenance
of appropriate insurance. While the Resolution was passed with the intention of standardizing the previous rules and stimulating the domestic
market, it is not possible to assess whether the Resolution has had a positive or negative effect on levels of foreign investment
in the UAE market. Separately, the Government, through the Dubai Land Department, has introduced a two-year residency visa for residential
property owners in Dubai, and, while the criteria for obtaining this residency visa is similar to the residency permit, it provides the
holder with UAE residency status, allowing the individual to obtain an Emirates ID card and a UAE driving license as well as to sponsor
dependents (subject to meeting the relevant criteria for dependent sponsorship). The Government has introduced other new visa measures
to make the UAE more appealing to investors, entrepreneurs, skilled personnel and outstanding students, including the 10-year “Golden”
visa. However, any restrictive changes to the UAE’s visa policies may discourage foreign nationals from investing in the UAE, which would
have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
We are subject to risks associated with
potential unlawful or arbitrary governmental actions in the UAE, which could negatively impact our operations and financial performance.
Governmental authorities in
the UAE in which some of ILUS’s subsidiaries operates may have a high degree of discretion and, at times, act selectively or arbitrarily,
without hearing or prior notice, and sometimes in a manner that is contrary to law or influenced by political or commercial considerations.
Such governmental action could include, among other things, the withdrawal of building permits, the expropriation of property without
adequate compensation or the forcing of business acquisitions, combinations or sales. Any such action taken may have a material adverse
effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
We are subject to the risk of international
sanctions, which could significantly impact our business activities, results of operations and financial condition.
European, US and other international
sanctions have in the past been imposed on companies engaging in certain types of transactions with specified countries or companies or
individuals in those countries. Companies operating in certain countries in the Middle East region have been subject to such sanctions
in the past. The UAE are not subject to such sanctions as at the date of this transition report. The terms of legislation and other rules
and regulations which establish sanctions regimes are often broad in scope and difficult to interpret.
If the UAE were in the future
to violate European, US or international sanctions, penalties could include a prohibition or limitation on the UAE’s ability to
conduct business in certain jurisdictions or to access the US or international capital markets. Any such sanction could have a material
adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Item 2. Financial Information
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following
discussion and analysis of our results of operations and financial condition should be read in conjunction with our financial statements
and the notes to those financial statements that are included elsewhere in this Form 10. Our discussion includes forward-looking statements
based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our plans, objectives, expectations, and intentions. Actual
results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number
of factors. See “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” at the beginning of this Form 10.
Overview
ILUS is a Nevada Corporation primarily focused
on the public safety, industrial and renewable energy sectors. Through its wholly owned subsidiary, Emergency Response Technologies Inc.
(“ERT”), ILUS aims to provide technology that protects communities, front line personnel and assets by acquiring technology
and solutions for the emergency response sector. This sector includes Fire and Rescue Services, Law Enforcement, Emergency Medical Services
and Emergency Management. The company also has an Industrial and Manufacturing subsidiary, Quality Industrial Corp., which is focused
on the acquisition and growth of process manufacturing and industrial companies. Furthermore, the company has a Mining and Renewable Energy
subsidiary which is focused on the incorporation, acquisition and growth of companies in the sustainable mining and renewable energy sectors.
ILUS has four existing distinct divisions which serve a diverse global
customer base. An overview of the current divisions is found below:
Emergency & Response division:
Emergency Response Technologies is a subsidiary
of ILUS, whose operating companies design, manufacture and distribute specialty equipment, vehicles and related parts and services. We
provide firefighting equipment, firefighting vehicles, firefighting vehicle superstructures, distribution of equipment for emergency services,
fire protection equipment sales, installation, and maintenance as well as servicing/maintenance of Firefighting, Rescue and Emergency
Medical Services equipment.
Industrial & Manufacturing division:
This division is specialized in the manufacturing
and assembling of process equipment, piping, and modules for the oil, gas, and energy sectors with over two decades of experience and
key end-users in the Oil & Gas, Off-shore, Refineries & Petrochemical, Waste-water treatment plants and Chemical, Fertilizer,
Metals & Mineral Processing industries. The international end-users include such as, but not limited to Chevron, BP, Shell, Total,
Sasol, Gasco. The sub-division has capabilities of undertaking design, detailed engineering, procurement, fabrication, site erection,
commissioning, testing & handing over of process equipment. The funding obligations for acquisitions such as Quality International
Co Ltd FCZ and Petro Line FZ LLC, by our publicly listed industrial subsidiary, Quality Industrial Corp. (OTC: QIND), are currently funded
by QIND itself as are the ongoing obligations for future acquisitions by the subsidiary. Our subsidiary QIND is currently in the process
of uplisting to NYSE American. Following the uplist, an S-1 Registration Statement will be filed by QIND to fund its debt obligations.
Mining & Renewable Energy division:
This division is engaged in the Mining & Renewable
Energy industry currently through its subsidiary Replay Solutions with recycling and recovery of precious metals from electronic waste.
We incorporate a ‘Closed loop’ concept where we use E – Waste and data destruction as a resource not only to extract
precious metals but to reuse all materials found in E-Waste such as plastics. We recycle cleanly, safely, and sustainably on items such
as, but not limited to Print Circuit Boards (PCB) and precious metals, Cable wire, car radiator shredding and separation. We shred, crush,
and grind the board to powder form and then use an airflow and an electrostatic separator to separate the materials into metal and fibers.
Defense Division:
This division is engaged in the Defense industry
currently through its subsidiary Hyperion Defence Solutions where it aims to provide customers with
the technological capability, solutions and services that will protect their warfighters and provide them with a technological advantage
in the following key areas: Joint Close Air Support (JCAS), Counter.
Factors Affecting Our Performance
The primary factors affecting
our results of operations include:
General Macro Economic Conditions
Our business is impacted by the global economic
environment, employment levels, consumer confidence, government, and municipal spending. Global instability in securities markets and
the war in Ukraine are among other factors that can impact our financial performance. In particular, changes in the U.S. economic climate
can impact the demand of our products range. In addition, the impact of taxes and fees can have a dramatic effect on the availability,
lead-times and costs associated with raw materials and parts for our product range.
Our purchases are discretionary by nature and
therefore sensitive to the availability of financing, consumer confidence, and unemployment levels among other factors and are affected
by general U.S. and global economic conditions, which create risks that future economic downturns will further reduce consumer demand
and negatively impact our sales.
While less economically sensitive than the Emergency
Response sector, the Industrial and Manufacturing sectors are also impacted by the overall economic environment. Tenders can be withdrawn
and lead times for the manufacturing can be affected which can result in cancellation of orders if not delivered on time.
Impact of Acquisitions
Historically, a significant component of our growth
has been through the acquisition of businesses in our targeted sectors. We typically incur upfront costs as we incorporate and integrate
acquired businesses into our operating philosophy and operational excellence. This includes the consolidation of supplies and raw materials,
optimized logistics and production processes, and other restructuring and improvements initiatives. The benefits of these integration
efforts may not positively impact our financial results in the short-term but has historically positively impacted medium to long-term
results.
We recognize acquired assets and liabilities at
fair value. This includes the recognition of identified intangible assets and goodwill. In addition, assets acquired, and liabilities
assumed generally include tangible assets, as well as contingent assets and liabilities.
Recent Developments and Plan of Operations
First Half of 2022
In the first half of 2022, ILUS planned to acquire
specific manufacturing and distribution capability in the United States as well as additional technological and strategic advancement.
ILUS therefore acquired Bull-Head Products, a Tennessee based manufacturer specialist vehicle truck beds and vehicle conversions, Georgia
Fire & Rescue, Georgian based distributor of firefighting equipment, and Quality Industrial Corp. a Special Purpose Vehicle listed
on the OTCQB intended for the acquisition Quality International Co Ltd FCZ which the company signed
a binding letter of intent to acquire on June 28, 2022, and for further strategically aligned acquisitions. In February 2022, ILUS hired
a Chief Financial Officer (CFO) for the Company and in June 2022 ILUS hired a Chief Commercial Officer.
Second Half of 2022
In the second half of 2022, ILUS completed its
audit process for 2020 and 2021 therefore it filed this Form 10-12G Registration Statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
(the “SEC”) to become a fully reporting company. In the second half of 2022, the company expected to acquire other companies
in the Emergency Response technology and manufacturing sectors. The Company completed seven acquisitions in 2021 and 2022. The Company
completed three acquisitions in 2021 and four acquisitions in 2022.

ILUS is in the process of launching an approved
investment project in Serbia, whereby it has been approved to obtain subsidies from the Serbian government for the employment of Serbian
nationals, for the property and for the required machinery and equipment to manufacture commercial Electric Utility Vehicles currently
used for emergency response purposes as sold by our Emergency Response division, as well as for industrial, hospitality and agricultural
purposes. The project has been approved by the Republic of Serbia and ILUS will with the investment receive incentive funds from the Republic
of Serbia equivalent to 35% of the gross salaries of all hires and 25% of all capital expenditure (CAPEX). The total amount of government
subsidies for ILUS EV Technologies is expected to be upwards of $8 million for its first investment project in Serbia and Serbia is planned
to be ILUS’ main production hub for vehicles and equipment outside of the United States. ILUS has secured a large site on the outskirts
of Cacak and also has the option to secure manufacturing facilities in Rekovac, Kragujevac and Jagodina. The company is engaged with an
Investment Bank to complete a planned subsidiary IPO. ILUS plans to appoint Strategic Advisors to strengthen the organization and its
corporate governance for its first planned subsidiary up list to a major stock exchange. In our July 13, 2022, press release, we updated
our revenue forecast to a run rate revenue of $140 million for 2022 due to current progress and the agreed acquisitions at the time expected
to close in the 3rd quarter. The company had run rate revenue of $140.94 million if annualizing the audited revenue for the three months
ended December 31, 2022.
First Half of 2023
ILUS entered into an agreement to acquire 52%
of Quality International Co Ltd FCZ on January 18, 2023, and 51% of Petro Line FZ LLC on January 27, 2023. Quality International Co Ltd
FCZ currently has signed purchase orders of $150M in various stages of the manufacturing process and an additional $220M in expected
orders. QIND will, following the acquisitions, disclose any known trends or uncertainties that have had or that the company reasonably
expects will have a material impact on net sales or revenues or income from continuing operations. In the first half of 2023, ILUS plans
to complete additional Emergency Response Technologies acquisitions, as well as integrate newer acquisitions into the group. We are presently
manufacturing in the United States, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom and Republic of Serbia. The site in Kragujevac, Serbia has existing
automotive engineers to be onboarded by ILUS EV Technologies as well as existing machinery for production of the company’s E-Raptor
range of commercial electric Utility Vehicles. ILUS expects the first E-Raptor 6x6 models to roll off the Kragujevac production line
in Q4 2023. The company plans to further expand its manufacturing in the United States and to Spain during the first half of 2023. The
company also plans to further expand operations through its newly formed Defense subsidiary. The focus will be on the international expansion
of its subsidiaries through strategically aligned acquisitions and the growth of the operating companies. ILUS anticipates hiring additional
finance, legal and acquisition personnel to facilitate and manage the growth as well as additional Strategic Advisors, consisting of
experienced individuals from the Emergency Response, Industrial, Manufacturing, Mining, and Renewable Energy sectors.
Second Half of 2023
In the second half of 2023, ILUS plans to continue
the international expansion of its subsidiaries by increasing sales and operational efficiencies as well as the completion of additional
strategically aligned acquisitions. The company plans to focus on the completion of additional Quality Industrial Corp., Replay Solutions
and Defense acquisitions during this period. Additional focus will go towards the ongoing consolidation and integration of acquisitions
as well as increased manufacturing of the company’s emergency response products in the United States. Our subsidiary QIND is currently
in the process of uplisting to NYSE American expected in Q3.
Financial Forecasts
Our management have made projections in a best
effort assessment of the Company’s future performance. The projections are based upon history of operations, current orders in production,
assessment of high probability forecasted sales, expected acquisitions in 2023, and other factors which altogether provide the basis for
management’s assessment. Our projections are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. As a result, our projected revenues, market
share, expenses and profitability may differ materially from our forecasts as per the risks addressed in our Risk Section.

Assumptions:
Industrial & Manufacturing Division:
Revenue for 2023 has been
forecasted on the basis of historical performance combined with actual orders in production that are expected to be invoiced within 2023
as well as current purchase orders in hand which are expected to be invoiced in 2023. Current orders in production exceed $100m which
will be finalized and invoiced this year and total purchase orders in hand exceed $180m of which some will be invoiced in 2023 and the
remainder in 2024. We have also assessed sales forecasts and included sales orders with a high probability of closing and invoicing within
the period. High probability sales orders are classified as those where confirmation of award has been received and we are awaiting the
purchase order from the client. All expenses have been forecasted taking into account historical performance and our forecasted profit
and loss statement includes the costs of manufacturing the current purchase orders in production, purchase orders obtained and forecasted
purchase orders which are scheduled for delivery in 2023.
Emergency & Response Division:
Revenue forecasts for this division have been made
by analyzing the historical performance of each operating company and determining the average annual growth rate for each company before
applying the relevant growth percentage to determine each company’s individual forecast. The same historical performance data has
been utilized to generate annual profit and loss forecast for each operating company. We have included forecasted revenue for Q4 in 2023
from an acquisition that we expect to close late in the third quarter. As a mergers and acquisitions company engaged primarily in the
business of acquiring and growing aligned companies, we will continue to acquire the majority stake in companies during 2023 and consolidate
their financials accordingly, thus the inclusion of the relevant financial forecasts of an acquisition which we expect to complete during
this period. Our expenses within this division are derived from the annual profit and loss forecasts for each operating company which
in turn has taken into account the historical performance data and factors such as cost of input, economies of scale and learning curve.
Mining & Renewable Energy Division:
Replay Solutions calculates its projected revenue
from conservative forecasts for the amount of minerals obtained per tonne of raw materials processed in the urban mining plant before
applying the respective mineral spot prices to the sale of the minerals obtained. Minerals obtained from the mining of electronic waste
include gold, silver, platinum, palladium, copper, tin, aluminum and resin. Historical data provides the background for determining the
quantity of minerals that is obtained using the specific refining machinery used by Replay Solutions. Actual cost of supply and operating
expenses has been used to determine the expenses for the division.

for 2023 accounts for only high probability sales of the companies SB10 Improvised Explosive Device Detectors. The operating company has
quoted on several large projects in the Middle East and Europe and has a sales pipeline which exceeds $55m, from which it conservatively
expects to invoice at least $10m worth of sales in 2023. The conservative estimate relates to delayed roll out of our business plan, production
capabilities and long-term contracts estimates in our Defense Division. Operating expenses including but not limited to extensive sales
and marketing efforts and expected cost of sales have included to determine the resultant forecasted net income for the division.
The company will, disclose any known trends or
uncertainties that have had or that the company reasonably expects will have a material impact on net sales or revenues or income from
continuing operations in its ongoing filing obligations. The above forecast is based upon historic performance and known purchase orders
at the time of filing. If any of the risks referenced in Item 1A should occur, as well as other risks not currently known to the company
or that we currently consider immaterial, our business, operating results and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

impact from acquisitions, resource investments, product development, marketing, and employee-related costs. Such expenses were higher
in 2022, as more companies were acquired under this segment and a larger amount was spent towards the strengthening and growth of our
companies in this segment to increase both revenue and profitability in 2023 and 2024 as well as longer term growth.

Based on management’s current expectations
and available information, the Company believes its increase in operations and cash available from Financing activities will be sufficient
to meet its operating cash requirements, planned capital expenditures, interest and principal payments on all borrowings, for the
foreseeable future.
The Company continues to actively monitor its liquidity
position and working capital needs and prioritizes capital expenditure related to capacity and strategic investments. The Company remains
in a stable overall position regarding capital resources and liquidity, which the Company believes is adequate to meet its projected needs.
Additionally, if aligned businesses are available
for acquisition upon acceptable terms, the Company may obtain all or a portion of the financing for these acquisitions through the incurrence
of additional borrowings.
Net cash provided by operating activities for
the fiscal year 2022 was $29 million, compared to net cash provided by operating activities in the year 2021 which was $1.5 million.
The positive cash generation from operating activities for the fiscal year 2022 is a result of increase in net income and improved net
working capital efficiency. There has been an increase in receivables as a result of higher volume along with an increase in Inventories
to support production amid supply chain challenges; and also Trade accounts payable have been increased due to higher inventory purchases
but are still less than the accounts receivable.

Operating
Cash Flows
Net cash provided by operating activities for the
fiscal year 2022 was $5.8 million, compared to net cash provided by operating activities in the year 2021 which was $1.7 million. The
positive cash generation from operating activities for the fiscal year 2022 is a result of increase in net income and improved net working
capital efficiency. There has been an increase in receivables as a result of higher volume along with an increase in Inventories to support
production amid supply chain challenges; and also Trade accounts payable have been increased due to higher inventory purchases but are
still less than the accounts receivable.
Investing Cash Flows
Investing activities used cash of $3.2 million
for acquisitions and for acquisition of non- current assets for the operations of the business in the fiscal year 2022. The increase in
net cash used for investing activities was primarily due to increased investment in acquisitions.
During the year 2022, a major portion of Goodwill
was generated from the acquisition of QIND’s subsidiary, Quality International. Along with Goodwill, the corresponding Liability
is also recorded.
Financing Cash flows
Cash provided by Financing activities for the fiscal
year 2022 was $1.3 million, compared to net cash provided by financing activities in the year 2021 which was $3 million. This is a result
of funds raised through convertible notes.
Going Concern
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America on a going concern
basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.
Management
evaluated all relevant conditions and events that are reasonably known or reasonably knowable, in the aggregate, as of the date the consolidated
financial statements are issued and determined. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s
ability to generate increased revenues and raise capital within one year from the date of filing.
Over the next twelve months management plans to
use borrowings and security sales to mitigate the effects of cash flow deficits; however, no assurance can be given that debt or equity
financing, if and when require, will be available.
Goodwill
The
Company continues to review its goodwill for possible impairment or loss of value at least annually or more frequently upon the occurrence
of an event or when circumstances indicate that a reporting unit’s carrying amount is greater than its fair value. On December 31,
2022, we performed a goodwill impairment evaluation. We performed a qualitative assessment of factors to determine whether it was necessary
to perform the goodwill impairment test. Based on the results of the work performed, the Company has concluded that no impairment loss
was warranted on December 31, 2022. Factors including non-renewal of a major contract or other substantial changes in business conditions
could have a material adverse effect on the valuation of goodwill in future periods and the resulting charge could be material to future
periods’ results of operations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements
that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues
or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In January
2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairments
by eliminating step two from the goodwill impairment test. Instead, if the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value,
an impairment loss shall be recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting
unit. ASU 2017-04 also clarifies that an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax-deductible goodwill on the carrying amount
of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2019, for both interim and annual reporting periods. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of the
adoption of ASU 2017-04 on its consolidated financial statements.
The Company has implemented all new accounting
pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the 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.

Item 7. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director
Independence
Other than described below or the transactions
described under the heading “Executive Compensation,” there have not been, and there is not currently proposed, any transaction
or series of similar transactions to which we were or will be a participant in which the amount involved exceeded or will exceed the lesser
of $120,000 or one percent of the average of our total assets at year-end for the last two completed fiscal years, and in which any director,
executive officer, holder of 5% or more of any class of our capital stock or any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing
persons had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.
The Company issued 75,000 preferred class F shares
to Daniel Link as staff compensation for an aggregate price of $586,500 on December 5, 2022. Daniel Link and Nicolas Link are siblings.
Daniel Link was employed in Firebug UK from 2014 until February 28, 2022, thereafter he was employed in Replay Solutions which was incorporated
by ILUS on March 1, 2022.
FB Technologies Global, Inc. is wholly owned by
Nicolas Link. FB Technologies Global, Inc. was not acquired. On May 10, 2020, FB Technologies Global, Inc., wholly owned by Nicolas Link,
acquired shares of ILUS stock, consisting of 10,000,000 Pref A Shares, 60,741,000 Pref D shares and 360,000,000 common shares, from
the prior CEO, Larson Elmore, for an aggregate purchase price of $140,000.
The company received 10,000,000 shares of Common
stock in Dear Cashmere Holding Co on May 21, 2021, as compensation for services provided to DRCR such as but not limited to, free rent
in offices at Al Marsa Street 66, 11th Floor, Office 1105, Dubai, free use of in-house accounting, IT and legal teams from 2021 until
December 31, 2023. The shares were discretionary awarded and recorded at fair market value of $1.20 with a grant date as of May 21, 2021,
in accordance with ASC 718 and issued by, Chairman, Nicolas Link and CEO, James Gibbons, of DRCR.
Conflicts of Interest
Our key management and board are also represented
on the management and board of QIND, our subsidiary and our Chairman and CEO Nicolas Link is also the Chairman of the Board of Directors
of Dear Cashmere Holding Co. and the Chairman of the Board of Directors of CGrowth Capital, Inc. where he also holds the voting control.
As a result, at certain points in time, these jointly represented companies may have members of key management and board concentrate
their efforts on transactions that focus on one company over the other, which collectively would not amount to work for our company on
a full-time basis. Dear Cashmere Holding Co. and CGrowth Capital, Inc. are however not affiliated with ILUS or any of its subsidiaries
and each public company are independently responsible for its own funding. We estimate that our key management will spend an average
of 20% of their time on the company’s Subsidiary QIND and 80% on the parent company ILUS. This and other conflicts of interest
may arise between us and our officers and director in that they have other business interests currently, with respect to ILUS, and in
the future to which they devote their attention, such as in the case of acquisitions, and they may be expected to continue to do so although
management time must also be devoted to our business. These competing interests could disrupt focus of our key management and board.
As a result, conflicts of interest may arise that can be resolved only through exercise of such judgment as is consistent with each officer
or director’s understanding of his or her fiduciary duties to our company.
Currently we have only four officers and one director.
We will seek to add additional officers and/or directors with industry experience and when the proper personnel are located and terms
of employment are mutually negotiated and agreed, and we have sufficient capital resources and cash flow to make such appointments.
In an effort to resolve such potential conflicts
of interest as between ILUS and QIND, our officers and director have agreed that any opportunities that they are aware of independently
or directly through their association with us would be presented by them solely to ILUS, before determining whether to include the opportunities
in QIND or another subsidiary.
In general, our officers and director are required
to present business opportunities to ILUS, which may include QIND, if:
|
● |
ILUS could financially undertake the opportunity through QIND; and |
|
● |
the opportunity is aligned with the Industrial business of QIND. |
Potential
investors should also be aware of the following potential conflicts of interest:
None of our
officers or directors is required to commit his or her full time to our company and, accordingly, may have conflicts of interest in allocating
his or her time among various business activities.
In the course
of their other business activities, our officers and our sole director may become aware of investment and business opportunities which
may be appropriate for presentation to us as well as the other entities with which they are affiliated.
Our officers
and directors may have a conflict of interest with respect to evaluating a particular business combination if the retention or resignation
of any such officers and directors was included by a target business as a condition to any agreement with respect to the combination.
Below is
a table summarizing the entities to which our executive officers and director currently have fiduciary duties or contractual obligations:

We cannot provide assurances that our efforts to
eliminate the potential impact of conflicts of interest will be effective. We are at risk that our officers and directors will favor their
other business interest over the needs of our company. These competing business interests could interfere with our ability to successfully
implement our business plan.
Item 8. Legal Proceedings
We may from time to time be involved in various
claims and legal proceedings of a nature we believe are normal and incidental to our business. These matters may include product liability,
intellectual property, employment, personal injury cause by our employees, and other general claims. Aside from the following, we are
not presently a party to any legal proceedings that, in the opinion of our management, are likely to have a material adverse effect on
our business. Regardless of outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of
management resources and other factors.
Ilustrato Pictures International
Inc. had applied to the District Court, Clark County, Nevada to have 40,000,000 shares with Ambrose & Keith cancelled as they were
issued in error in 2018 as the deal never completed. The case was won on September 15, 2022, in favor of the company and the court order
was received on January 23, 2023. The transfer agent cancelled the 40,000,000 shares on February 17, 2023.
We have been named as a defendant
in an action commenced by our former CEO, Larson Elmore. A case has been filed in the Eight Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada
(Case No. A-22-858343-C). The Plaintiff alleges that we breached a stock purchase agreement dated May 10, 2020, and promissory notes,
and is therefore entitled to damages. We have potential counterclaims against the former CEO which are being prepared, arising out of
improper action and lack of disclosures. The company has disputed the claim and argue that Larson Elmore has mislead the company and its
shareholders on various matters including but not limited to liabilities, company commitments and due diligence items presented by Larson
Elmore during the takeover process. We filed a motion to dismiss Larson Elmore’s complaint
on the basis that it fails to state a claim and lacks jurisdiction in the Nevada courts. At the hearing on this motion, the court
determined that discovery would be required before ruling for the company and denied the motion without prejudice. The company is
evaluating a motion for reconsideration once the order has been entered. In the interim, the parties have discussed a tentative discovery
schedule and the possibility of a mediation and settlement conference.
We have been named as a defendant
in an action commenced by Steve Nicol, who claims that he loaned $12,000 on or about May 23, 2017, to Cache Cabinetry, LLC a subsidiary
of ILUS under a promissory note, but that ILUS agreed to assume the note. He further claims that he elected to convert the note and that
ILUS failed to convert the note into shares of ILUS common stock. He has alleged breach of contract, declaratory relief, and specific
performance to require the company to issue 75,000,000 shares of common stock in ILUS. The company obtained a settlement on September
6, 2023, and awaits the final court order.
We have been named as a defendant
in an action commenced by Black Ice Advisors LLC, regarding a historic note entered into by the previous CEO, Larson Elmore with a principal
amount of $4,000. The company dispute the legitimacy of the note. On June 5, 2023, we got a service of process by Superior Court of California,
County of San Diego, with a reschedule hearing on March 3, 2024. On August 22, 2023, the company received information that Black Ice
Advisors withdrew their prior demand for shares with a new motion seeking a monetary judgment in Black Ice’s in the amount of $3.772
million for the historic note with a principal amount of $4,000. At a hearing on November 3, 2023, the Court adopted its tentative ruling
as the final ruling and denied the motion for summary judgement from Black Ice Advisors LLC. The case has received a trial date
for March 8, 2024.
We cannot predict whether the action against involving
our former CEO or Black Ice Advisors LLC is likely to result in any material recovery by or expense to our company. Where it is reasonably
possible to do so, the Company accrues estimates of the probable costs for the resolution of these matters. These estimates based upon
an analysis of potential results and settlement strategies. It is possible, however, that future operating results for any particular
quarter or annual period could be affected by changes in assumption.
We may continue to incur legal fees in responding
to this and other lawsuits. The expense of defending such litigation may be significant and any sizeable verdict may adversely affect
the company. The amount of time to resolve this and any additional lawsuits is unpredictable, and these actions may divert management’s
attention from the day-to-day operations of our business, all of which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and
cash flows.

each purchaser and the transfer agent affixed the appropriate legends. Each purchaser was given adequate access to sufficient information
about us to make an informed investment decision.
Item 11. Description of Registrant’s Securities to be Registered
General
Our authorized capital stock consists of 2,000,000,000
shares of common stock and 235,741,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. As of December 31, 2022, there were 1,355,230,699
shares of our common stock issued and outstanding and 78,946,425 shares of our preferred stock issued and outstanding.
Common Stock
Our common stock is entitled to one vote per share
on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders, including the election of directors. Except as otherwise required by law or provided
in any resolution adopted by our board of directors with respect to any series of preferred stock, the holders of our common stock will
possess all voting power. Generally, all matters to be voted on by stockholders must be approved by a majority (or, in the case of election
of directors, by a plurality) of the votes entitled to be cast by all shares of our common stock that are present in person or represented
by proxy, subject to any voting rights granted to holders of any preferred stock. Holders of our common stock representing fifty percent
(50%) of our capital stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, are necessary to constitute a
quorum at any meeting of our stockholders. A vote by the holders of a majority of our outstanding shares is required to effectuate certain
fundamental corporate changes such as liquidation, merger, or an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation. Our Articles of Incorporation
do not provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors.
Subject to any preferential rights of any outstanding
series of preferred stock created by our board of directors from time to time, the holders of shares of our common stock will be entitled
to such cash dividends as may be declared from time to time by our board of directors from funds available, therefore.
Subject to any preferential rights of any outstanding
series of preferred stock created from time to time by our board of directors, upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders
of shares of our common stock will be entitled to receive pro rata all assets available for distribution to such holders.
In the event of any merger or consolidation with
or into another company in connection with which shares of our common stock are converted into or exchangeable for shares of stock, other
securities, or property (including cash), all holders of our common stock will be entitled to receive the same kind and amount of shares
of stock and other securities and property (including cash). Holders of our common stock have no pre-emptive rights, no conversion rights
and there are no redemption provisions applicable to our common stock.
Preferred Stock
Our board of directors may become authorized to
authorize preferred shares of stock and to divide the authorized shares of our preferred stock into one or more series, each of which
must be so designated as to distinguish the shares of each series of preferred stock from the shares of all other series and classes.
Our board of directors is authorized, within any limitations prescribed by law and our articles of incorporation, to fix and determine
the designations, rights, qualifications, preferences, limitations, and terms of the shares of any series of preferred stock including,
but not limited to, the following:
| (1) | The number of shares constituting
that series and the distinctive designation of that series, which may be by distinguishing number, letter, or title; |
| (2) | The dividend rate on the shares
of that series, whether dividends will be cumulative, and if so, from which date(s), and the relative rights of priority, if any, of
payment of dividends on shares of that series; |
| (3) | Whether that series will have
voting rights, in addition to the voting rights provided by law, and, if so, the terms of such voting rights; |
| (4) | Whether that series will have
conversion privileges, and, if so, the terms and conditions of such conversion, including provision for adjustment of the conversion
rate in such events as the Board of Directors determines; |
| | |
| (5) | Whether or not the shares of
that series will be redeemable, and, if so, the terms and conditions of such redemption, including the date or date upon or after which
they are redeemable, and the amount per share payable in case of redemption, which amount may vary under different conditions and at
different redemption dates; |
| (6) | Whether that series will have
a sinking fund for the redemption or purchase of shares of that series, and, if so, the terms and amount of such sinking fund; |
| (7) | The rights of the shares of
that series in the event of voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the corporation, and the relative rights
of priority, if any, of payment of shares of that series; and |
| (8) | Any other relative rights, preferences,
and limitations of that series. |
In August 2019, the Company’s Amended its
Articles of Incorporation to authorize it to issue up to two billion (2,000,000,000) shares, of which all shares are common stock, with
a par value of one-tenth of one cent ($0.001) per share. The Company also created the following preferred shares with a par value of $0.001
to be designated Class A, B and C.
Class A – 10,000,000 preferred shares that
convert at 3 common shares for every 1 preferred class A share and voting rights of 500 common shares for every 1 preferred class A share.
All 10,000,000 preferred class A shares have been issued to the Company’s CEO.
Class B – 10,000,000 preferred shares that
convert at 3 common shares for every 1 preferred class B common share with voting rights of 100 common shares for every 1 preferred class
B share.
Class C – 10,000,000 preferred shares that
convert at 2 common shares for every 1 preferred class C common share with voting rights of 100 common shares for every 1 preferred class
C share.
On February 14, 2020, the Company designated 60,741,000
Class D preferred shares, par value $0.001, that convert at 500 common shares for every 1 preferred class D common share with voting rights
of 500 common shares for every 1 preferred class D share.
On May 28, 2020, the Company designated 5,000,000
Class E preferred shares, par value $0.001, with non-cumulative right to dividends at 6% a year commencing a year after issuance. Dividends
to be paid annually. The Class E shares are redeemable at $1.00 per share, 2.25% must be redeemed per quarter, commencing one year after
issuance, and shall be redeemed at 130% premium to the redemption value. The shares do not have voting rights.
On August 26, 2021, the company amended Class B
Shares to 100,000,000 shares with par value $0.001 that convert at 100 common shares for every 1 preferred Class B Share with voting rights
of 100 common shares for every 1 preferred class B share. Dividends to be paid according to the company’s dividend policy agreed
by the board from time to time.
On July 20, 2021, the Company designed 50,000,000
Class F preferred shares preferred shares, par value $0.001, that convert at 100 common shares for every 1 preferred class F share with
no voting rights and no dividends.
Provisions in Our Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws That Would
Delay, Defer or Prevent a Change in Control
Our articles of incorporation authorize our board
of directors to issue a class of preferred stock commonly known as a “blank check” preferred stock. Specifically, the preferred
stock may be issued from time to time by the board of directors as shares of one (1) or more classes or series. Our board of directors,
subject to the provisions of our Articles of Incorporation and limitations imposed by law, is authorized to adopt resolutions; to issue
the shares; to fix the number of shares; to change the number of shares constituting any series; and to provide for or change the following:
the voting powers; designations; preferences; and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, qualifications, limitations
or restrictions, including the following: dividend rights, including whether dividends are cumulative; dividend rates; terms of redemption,
including sinking fund provisions; redemption prices; conversion rights and liquidation preferences of the shares constituting any class
or series of the preferred stock.
In each such case, we will not need any further
action or vote by our shareholders. One of the effects of undesignated preferred stock may be to enable the board of directors to render
more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a tender offer, proxy contest, merger or otherwise, and
thereby to protect the continuity of our management. The issuance of shares of preferred stock pursuant to the board of director’s
authority described above may adversely affect the rights of holders of common stock. For example, preferred stock issued by us may rank
prior to the common stock as to dividend rights, liquidation preference or both, may have full or limited voting rights and may be convertible
into shares of common stock. Accordingly, the issuance of shares of preferred stock may discourage bids for the common stock at a premium
or may otherwise adversely affect the market price of the common stock.
Certain Anti-Takeover Provisions
Nevada Revised Statutes sections 78.378 to 78.379
provide state regulation over the acquisition of a controlling interest in certain Nevada corporations unless the articles of incorporation
or bylaws of the corporation provide that the provisions of these sections do not apply. Our articles of incorporation and bylaws do not
state that these provisions do not apply. The statute creates a number of restrictions on the ability of a person or entity to acquire
control of a Nevada company by setting down certain rules of conduct and voting restrictions in any acquisition attempt, among other things.
The statute is limited to corporations that are organized in the state of Nevada and that have 200 or more stockholders, at least 100
of whom are stockholders of record and residents of the State of Nevada; and does business in the State of Nevada directly or through
an affiliated corporation. Because of these conditions, the statute currently does not apply to our company.
Item 12. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Under our bylaws, every person who was or is a
party to, or is threatened to be made a party to, or is involved in any action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative,
or investigative, by reason of the fact that he is or was our director or officer, or is or was serving at our request as a director or
officer of another corporation, or as its representative in a partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, shall be indemnified
and held harmless to the fullest extent legally permissible under the laws of the State of Nevada from time to time against all expenses,
liability, and loss (including attorneys’ fees judgments, fines, and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred
or suffered by him or her in connection therewith. Such right of indemnification shall be a contract right, which may be enforced in any
manner desired by such person. The expenses of officers and directors incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit, or proceeding
must be paid by us as they are incurred and in advance of the final disposition of the action, suit, or proceeding, upon receipt of an
undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction
that he is not entitled to be indemnified by us. Such right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other right which such directors,
officers, or representatives may have or hereafter acquire, and, without limiting the generality of such statement, they shall be entitled
to their respective rights of indemnification under any bylaw, agreement, vote of shareholders, provision of law, or otherwise.
Without limiting the application of the foregoing,
our board of directors may adopt bylaws from time to time with respect to indemnification, to provide at all times the fullest indemnification
permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada, and may cause us to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was
our director or officer, or is or was serving at our request as a director or officer of another corporation, or as its representative
in a partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred in any such
capacity or arising out of such status, whether or not we would have the power to indemnify such person. The indemnification provided
shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee, or agent, and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs,
executors, and administrators of such person.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising
under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have
been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore
unenforceable.
We have not entered into any agreements with our
directors and executive officers that require us to indemnify these persons against expenses, judgments, fines, settlements and other
amounts actually and reasonably incurred (including expenses of a derivative action) in connection with any proceeding, whether actual
or threatened, to which any such person may be made a party by reason of the fact that the person is or was our director or officer or
any of our affiliated enterprises.

INDEX TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Report
of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To
the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Ilustrato Pictures International, Inc.
Opinion
on the Financial Statements
We
have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Ilustrato Pictures International, Inc. (the
Company) (“Ilus”) as of December 31, 2022, and 2021, the related statements of
income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in
the period ended December 31, 2022, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the
“Consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December
31, 2022, and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the
two years in the period ended December 31, 2022, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.
We
did not audit the financial statements of Quality International Inc. Ltd FZC(QI), a majority-
owned subsidiary for CY 2022, which statements reflect total assets and revenues constituting
55 percent and 78 percent, respectively, of the related consolidated totals. Those statements
were audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar
as it relates to the amounts included for Quality International Inc. Ltd FZC(QI), is based
on the report of the other auditors.
Basis
for Opinion
These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits.
We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
(United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to
the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules
and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require
that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included
performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,
whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such
procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation
of the financial statements. We believe that our audit and the report of the other auditors
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Company’s
Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared by the management on the assumption
that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note No. 19 to the financial
statements, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction
of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.
There
is substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern which
is further discussed in Note No. 19 and as per management, they have evaluated all relevant
conditions and events that are reasonably known or reasonably knowable, in the aggregate,
as of the date the consolidated financial statements are issued and determined. The Company’s
ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to continue
to generate sufficient revenues, collect due revenues, and raise capital within one year
from the date of filing.
Over
the next twelve months management plans to use borrowings and security sales to mitigate
the effects of cash flow deficits; however, no assurance can be given that debt or equity
financing, if and when required, will be available.
Ilus
recorded all revenue generated from selected customers on a credit basis. At the end of the
year, accounts receivable for the previous year and the current year have not been collected.
The management has represented that they will collect the cash for all outstanding account
receivables due from the previous years and the current year. Refer No. 19 for accounts receivable

We are filing this
Amendment No. 6 to restate our financial statements as of December 31, 2022, that were previously reported on the Original Filing and
subsequent amendments. The following items have been amended to reflect the restatements:
Part II, Item 7. Management’s Discussion

Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and
Supplementary Data
Part IV, Item 15. Financial Statement Schedules
and Footnotes
In addition, the Company’s Auditor has

The
following presents a reconciliation of the impacted financial statement line items as filed to the restated amounts as of December

Note 2: Summary of Accounting Policies
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting
Standards Codification 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.
Accordingly, revenue is recognized when control of the goods
or services promised under a contract is transferred to the customer either at a point in time (e.g., upon delivery) or over time (e.g.,
as the Company performs under the contract) in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in
exchange for the goods or services. The Company accounts for a contract when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights
and payment terms of the parties are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable.
If collectability is not probable, the sale is deferred until collection becomes probable or payment is received.
Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities acquired under
Business Combinations
Company follows new guidance under ASC 606 regarding recognition
and measurement of contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination. The company applies the definition of
a performance obligation in ASC 606 when recognizing contract liabilities assumed in a business combination. The company eventually recognize
contract assets and contract liabilities at amounts consistent with those recorded by the acquiree immediately before the acquisition
date. Earlier, contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination were recorded by the acquirer at fair value.
Work-in-progress
Work-in-progress is stated at cost plus
attributable profit, less provision for any anticipated losses and progress billings. Cost comprises direct materials, labor, depreciation,
and overheads. If any progress billings for any contract exceed the cost-plus attributable profit or less anticipated losses, the excess
to be shown as excess progress billings. Claims are only recognized as income when the outcome and recoverability can be determined with
reasonable certainty. Contract revenue and costs are recognized as revenue and expenses, respectively, in the statement of comprehensive
income when the outcome of a construction contract can be estimated reliably.
In accordance with ASC-606 revenue recognition,
amounts are billed in accordance with contractual terms or as work progresses. Unbilled amounts arise when the timing of billing differs
from the timing of revenue recognized, such as when contract provisions require specific milestones to be met before a customer can be
billed. Unbilled amounts primarily relate to performance obligations satisfied over time when the cost-to-cost method is utilized, and
the revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed to the customer as there’s not yet a right to invoice in accordance with contractual
terms. Unbilled amounts are recorded as a contract asset when the revenue associated with the contract is recognized prior to billing
and derecognized when billed in accordance with the terms of the contract.
Industrial & Manufacturing segment revenue
Majority of the revenue is generated from our reportable
segment – Industrial & Manufacturing, below is accounting policy followed by such segment:
The principal activity of this segment is to engage in general
trading, manufacturing and fabrication or steel and steel products and mainly manufacturing of pressure vessels, tanks, heat exchangers
and construction of storage tanks and piping. Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when control of the goods or services
are transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for
those goods or services. The Company has generally concluded that it is the principal in its revenue arrangements because it typically
controls the goods or services before transferring them to the customer.
Construction contracts
Construction contract revenue and contract costs are recognized
as revenue and expenses respectively by reference to the stage of completion of the contract activity at the end of the reporting period,
when the outcome of a construction contract can be estimated reliably. The percentage of completion method of accounting requires the
reporting of revenues and expenses on a yearly basis, as determined by the percentage of the contract that has been fulfilled. The stage
of completion is measured by reference to the proportion of the costs incurred to date.
When the outcome of a construction contract cannot be estimated
reliably, contract revenue is recognized to the extent of contract costs incurred that are likely to be recoverable and contracts costs
are recognized as expense in the period in which they are incurred. An expected loss on the construction contract is recognized as an
expense immediately when it is probable that total contract costs will exceed total contract revenue.
The Company principally operates fixed price contracts.
If the outcome of such a contract can be reliably measured, revenue associated with the construction contract is recognized by reference
to the stage of completion of the contract activity at year end (the percentage of completion method).
The outcome
of a construction contract can be estimated reliably when:
|
● |
the total contract revenue can be measured reliably; |
|
● |
it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the contract
will flow to the entity; |
|
● |
the costs to complete the contract and the stage of completion can
be measured reliably; and |
|
● |
the contract costs attributable to the contract can be clearly identified
and measured reliably so that actual contract costs incurred can be compared with prior estimates. When the outcome of a construction
cannot be estimated reliably (principally during early stages of a contract), contract revenue is recognized only to the extent of
costs incurred that are expected to be recoverable. |
In applying the percentage of completion method, revenue
recognized corresponds to the total contract revenue (as defined below) multiplied by the actual completion rate based on the proportion
of total contract costs (as defined below) incurred to date over the total estimated contract costs.
Contract revenue corresponds to the initial amount of revenue
agreed in the contract and any variations in contract work, claims and incentive payments to the extent that it is probable that they
will result in revenue, and they are capable of being reliably measured.
Contract costs include costs that relate directly to the
specific contract and costs that are attributable to contract activity in general and can be allocated to the contract.
The Company’s contracts are typically
negotiated for the construction of a single asset or a group of assets which are closely interrelated or interdependent in terms of their
design, technology and function. In certain circumstances, the percentage of completion method is applied to the separately identifiable
components of a single contract or to a group of contracts together in order to reflect the substance of a contract or a group of contracts.
Variations
Variations are recognized in contract revenue when the outcome can be determined with reasonable certainty and are capable
of being reliably measured.
Claims
Claims are recognized in contract revenue when:
|
● |
Negotiations have reached an advanced stage such that it is probable that the customer will accept the claim; and |
|
● |
The amount that is probable will be accepted by the customer and can be measured reliably. |
Revenue from construction contracts is recognized over a
period of time by reference to the stage of completion of the contract activities at the end of the reporting period.
The
Company considers whether there are other promises in the contract that are separate performance obligations to which a portion of
the transaction price needs to be allocated. In determining the transaction price for the construction contract, the Company
considers the effects of variable consideration, the existence of significant financing components, non-cash consideration, and
consideration payable to the customer (if any).
Revenue from the construction contract is measured at the fair value of the
consideration received or receivable, net of returns and allowances, trade discounts and volume rebates.
Variable
consideration
If the consideration in a contract includes a variable amount, the Company estimates the amount of consideration
to which it will be entitled in exchange for transferring the goods to the customer. The variable consideration is estimated at
contract inception and constrained until it is highly probable that a significant revenue reversal in the amount of cumulative
revenue recognized will not occur when the associated uncertainty with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. The
construction contracts provide customers with a right to claim damages for delay in delivery of goods. The rights to claim damages
for delay in delivery of goods give rise to variable consideration.
Consideration of significant financing component
in a contract
The Company’s subsidiary sells
customized process equipment for which the manufacturing lead time after signing the contract goes up to 18 to 24 months. This type of
contract includes two alternative payment options for the customer, i.e., payment of the transaction price equal to the cash selling
price upon delivery of the equipment or payment of a lower transaction price when the contract is signed. The Company concludes no significant
financing component for those contracts where the customer elects to pay in advance.
Rights to claim damages
for delay in delivery of goods
Construction contracts provide a customer with a right to claim damages for delay in
delivery of goods within a specified period. The Company uses a pre-agreed percentage method to estimate the amount of penalty that
will be paid to the customer because this method best predicts the amount of variable consideration to which the Company will be
entitled.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable is reported at the customers’
outstanding balances, less any allowance for doubtful accounts. Interest is not accrued on overdue accounts receivable.
Our
accounts receivable primarily includes balance due from customers of Quality International
Co Ltd FCZ, as well as products sold and delivered to additional customers. The duration
of such receivables extends from 30 days to beyond 12 Months. Full payment is received only
when a job/project is completed, and approvals are obtained. Provisions are created based
on estimated irrecoverable amounts determined by reference to past default experience. The
majority of Quality International Co Ltd FCZ accounts receivable extend beyond 12 months
and are guaranteed by one of the shareholders of Quality International Co Ltd FCZ. Out of
total accounts receivable of the company, $33,175,606 represents balances due from customers
of Quality International Co Ltd FCZ.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
An
allowance for doubtful accounts on accounts receivable is charged to operations in amounts
sufficient to maintain the allowance for uncollectible accounts at a level management believes
is adequate to cover any probable losses. Management determines the adequacy of the allowance
based on historical write off percentages and information collected from individual customers.
Accounts receivables are charged off against the allowances when collectability is determined
to be permanently impaired.
Inventories
In accordance with ASC 330, Company states inventories at
the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost, which includes material, labor and overhead, is determined on a first in, first out basis.
The Company makes adjustments to reduce the cost of inventory to its net realizable value, if required, for estimated excess, obsolete,
zero usage or impaired balances. Factors influencing these adjustments include changes in market demand, product life cycle and engineering
changes.
Tangible Assets/ Property Plant & Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost, except
when acquired in a business combination where property, plant and equipment are recorded at fair value. Depreciation of property, plant
and equipment is recognized over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets using the straight-line method.
The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Buildings, related improvements & land improvements | |
5-25 |
Machinery & equipment | |
3-15 |
Computer hardware & software | |
3-10 |
Office, furniture & others | |
3-15 |
Expenditures that extend the useful life of existing property,
plant and equipment are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining useful life of the related asset. Expenditures for repairs and
maintenance are expensed as incurred. When property, plant and equipment are retired or sold, the cost and related accumulated depreciation
is removed from the Company’s balance sheet, with any gain or loss reflected in operations.
Stock Based Compensation
When applicable, the Company will account for stock-based
payments to employees in accordance with ASC 718, “Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). Stock-based payments to employees
include grants of stocks, grants of stock options and issuance of warrants that are recognized in the consolidated statement of operations
based on their fair values at the date of grant.
In accordance with ASC 718, the company will generally
apply the same guidance to both employee and nonemployee share-based awards. However, the company will also follow specific guidance for
share-based awards to nonemployees related to the attribution of compensation cost and the inputs to the option-pricing model for expected
term. Nonemployee share-based payment equity awards are measured at the grant-date fair value of the equity instruments, similar to employee
share-based payment equity awards.
The Company calculates the fair value of option grants
and warrant issuances utilizing the Binomial pricing model. The amount of stock-based compensation recognized during a period is based
on the value of the portion of the awards that are ultimately expected to vest. ASC 718 requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time
stock options are granted and warrants are issued to employees and non-employees, and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if
actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The term “forfeiture” is distinct from “cancellations” or “expirations”
and represents only the unvested portion of the surrendered stock option or warrant. The Company estimates forfeiture rates for all unvested
awards when calculating the expenses for the period. In estimating the forfeiture rate, the Company monitors both stock option and warrant
exercises as well as employee termination patterns. The resulting stock-based compensation expense for both employee and non-employee
awards is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the period in which the Company expects to receive the benefit, which is
generally the vesting period.
Earnings (Loss) per Share
The Company reports earning (loss) per share in accordance
with ASC Topic 260-10, “Earnings per Share.” Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing income (loss) available
to shareholders’ by the weighted average number of shares available. Diluted earnings (loss) per shares available. Diluted earnings
(loss) per share is computed similar to basic earnings (loss) per share except the denominator is increased to include the number of additional
shares that would have been outstanding if the potential shares had been issued and if the additional shares were dilutive.
Organization and Offering Cost
The Company has a policy to expense organization and offering
cost as incurred.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purpose of the statements of cash flows, the Company
considers cash and cash equivalents to include all stable, highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The company’s financial instruments consist of
cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and notes payable. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair
value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these
financial statements.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company primarily transacts its business with one financial
institution. The amount on deposit in that one institution may from time to time exceed the federally- insured limit.
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 assumption that affect the reported
amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Business segment
ASC
280, “Segment Reporting” requires use of the “management approach” model for segments reporting. The management
approach model is based on the way a company’s management organizes segments within the company for making operating decisions
and assessing performance.
Out
of four segments discussed in the business overview section in Form 10, only two segments fulfill the criteria of Operating segments
and Reportable Segment as per December 31, 2022.
One
reporting segment is the Industrial & Manufacturing division and
the other is Emergency and Response Division.

Consolidated
gross profit increased to $28.3 million in the fiscal year 2022 primarily due to higher gross profit in the Industrial & Manufacturing
division along with increase in gross profit in the Emergency response segment.
The
increase in gross profit in the Emergency Response Division is primarily the result of increased efficiencies resulting from operational
improvement initiatives and higher volume leverage, favorable price/cost and productivity.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income tax positions in accordance with
Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC Topic 740”). This standard prescribes a recognition
and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must
be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. There was no material impact on the Company’s financial
position or results of operations as a result of the application of this standard. Deferred tax assets have not been created for those
subsidiaries which are in income tax-free jurisdiction, because the losses incurred cannot be utilized in the future, rendering deferred
tax assets irrelevant. Company comprises of three profitable subsidiaries, out of which Quality International is located in the jurisdiction
where corporate tax doesn’t apply. As for the other two profitable subsidiaries, one diligently files tax return, while the other does
not meet the threshold criteria for tax return requirements.
Leases
The Company accounts for leases with escalation clauses
a in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 842, “Lease”.
In accordance with the principles of ASC 842, company
recognizes both the assets and the liabilities arising from their leases. The lease liability is measured as the present value of lease
payments while the lease assets is equal to the lease liability adjusted for certain items like prepaid rent ad lease incentives.
The Company applies a single recognition and measurement
approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Company recognizes lease liabilities to make
lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.
The Company recognizes right-of-use assets at the commencement
date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated
depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes
the amount of lease liabilities recognized, initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date
less any lease incentives received and estimate of costs to be incurred by the lessee in dismantling and removing the underlying asset,
restoring the site on which it is located or restoring the underlying asset to the condition required by the terms and conditions of the
lease, unless those costs are incurred to produce inventories. Unless the Company is reasonably certain to obtain ownership of the leased
asset at the end of the lease term, the recognized right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of its
estimated useful life and the lease term as follows:
Land: 25 years
Right-of-use assets are subject to
impairment review.
At the commencement date of the lease, the Company
recognizes lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include
fixed payments (including in substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an
index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include, if any, the exercise
price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Company and payments of penalties for terminating a lease, if the
lease term reflects the Company exercising the option to terminate.
The variable lease payments that do not depend on an
index or a rate are recognized as expense in the period on which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.
In calculating the present value of lease payments,
the Company uses the incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date if the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily
determinable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced
for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change
in the lease term, a change in the in-substance fixed lease payments or a change in the assessment to purchase the underlying asset.
The Company’s subsidiary Quality International
has entered into commercial leases of land for office, manufacturing yards and storage facilities. These leases generally have lease term
of 25 years. The Company’s obligations under its leases are secured by the lessor’s title to the leased assets. There are
no restrictions placed upon the Company by entering into these leases. The Company also has certain leases with lease terms of 12 months
or less and leases with low value.
The Company has Lease arrangement for which the liability
has been recorded separately. The Company determines whether an arrangement contains a lease at inception. A lease liability and corresponding
right of use (ROU) asset are recognized for qualifying leased assets based on the present value of fixed and certain index-based lease
payments at lease commencement.
The Company’s
obligations under its leases are secured by the lessor’s title to the leased assets. There are no restrictions placed upon the
Company by entering into these leases. The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at contract inception and recognizes
a ROU asset and a lease liability based on the present value of fixed, and certain index-based lease payments at the lease commencement
date. Variable payments are excluded from the present value of lease payments and are recognized in the period in which the payment is
made.
The Company
generally uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for measuring its lease liabilities, as the Company cannot determine
the interest rate implicit in the lease because it does not have access to certain lessor specific information. Lease expense is recognized
on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company does not have significant finance leases. The Company has elected not to separate
payments for lease components from payments for non-lease components for all classes of leases. Additionally, the Company has elected
the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that qualify, which means ROU assets and lease liabilities will not be recognized
for leases with an initial term of twelve months or less.
When accounting for finance leases in accordance with
ASC 842, entity recognizes interest on the lease liability and amortization of the ROU asset in the income statement and classify payments
of the principal portion of the lease liability as financing activities and payments of interest on the lease liability as operating activities.
During fiscal year 2022, the Company recognized interest
on lease liabilities amounting to $667,614 and paid $1,906,838 as lease payments. As of December 31, 2022, Lease liabilities are presented
in the statement of financial position as:
As of December 31, 2022, Lease liabilities are presented
in the statement of financial position as:
Current portion of lease liabilities: | |
$ | 836,382 | |
Non-Current portion of lease liabilities: | |
$ | 13,696,729 | |
Short-term leases and leases of
low-value assets
The Company applies the short-term lease recognition
exemption to its short-term leases (i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not
contain a purchase option). It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases of office equipment that are
considered to be low value. Low value asset consideration are those less than USD 5,000. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases
of low value assets are recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In
January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which simplifies the accounting for goodwill
impairments by eliminating step two from the goodwill impairment test. Instead, if the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its
fair value, an impairment loss shall be recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated
to that reporting unit. ASU 2017-04 also clarifies that an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax-deductible goodwill
on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. The new standard is effective
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, for both interim and annual reporting periods.

Note 5: Goodwill
As a part of share
purchase arrangement between Lee Larson Elmore and FB Technologies Global Inc., Nick Link, the owner of FB Technologies Global Inc. replaced
Lee Larson Elmore as CEO of Ilustrato Pictures International Inc. on January 14, 2021, and we eventually got control over activities
and books of accounts of Ilustrato Pictures International Inc. from the date January 14, 2021.
As of December 31,
2022, the Additional Goodwill has been generated through acquisition of our subsidiaries -Bull Head Products Inc., Georgia Fire &
Rescue, Quality Industrial Corp. and its subsidiary Quality International. Goodwill accounted in the books is primarily a result of acquisitions,
representing the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the tangible net assets acquired.
The Company accounts for business combinations by estimating
the fair value of consideration paid for acquired businesses and assigning that amount to the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities
assumed, with the remainder assigned to goodwill. If the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed exceeds the fair value
of consideration paid, a gain on bargain purchase is recognized. The estimates of fair values are determined utilizing customary valuation
procedures and techniques, which require us, among other things, to estimate future cash flows and discount rates. Such analyses involve
significant judgments and estimations.
The Company follows the guidance prescribed in Accounting
Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, to test goodwill and intangible assets for
impairment annually if an event occurs or circumstances change which indicates that its carrying amount may not exceed its fair value.
The annual impairment review is performed in the fourth
quarter of each fiscal year based upon information and estimates available at that time. To perform the impairment testing, the Company
first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair values of the Company’s reporting
units or indefinite-lived intangible assets are less than their carrying amounts as a basis for determining whether or not to perform
the quantitative impairment test. Qualitative testing includes the evaluation of economic conditions, financial performance and other
factors such as key events when they occur. The Company then estimates the fair value of each reporting unit and each indefinite-lived
intangible asset not meeting the qualitative criteria and compares their fair values to their carrying values.
As all the subsidiaries were acquired in 2022, hence
company would start impairment process from the next year 2023 in accordance with the guidance prescribed in ASC 350. The Company would
assess at year-end whether there has been an impairment in the value of goodwill and identifiable intangible assets.
If future operating performance at one or more of the
Company’s reporting units were to fall significantly below forecasted levels, the Company could be required to reflect, under current
applicable accounting rules, a non-cash charge to operating income for an impairment. Any determination requiring the write-off of a significant
portion of goodwill or identifiable intangible assets would adversely impact the Company’s results of operations and net worth.
As of December 31,
2022, Goodwill and intangible assets amount to $61,807,163 as compared to total assets amounting to $ 251,417,464. Below is a table displaying

As of December 31, 2022:
The borrowings from financial institutions amounting to
$12,378,098 belong to our subsidiary, Quality International. These terms loans were acquired from commercial banks in the UAE for the
purchase of machinery and equipment. These term loans carry financing costs at commercial rates plus 1 to 3-month EIBOR per annum.
Quality International was acquired in the year 2022, hence
all the liabilities as a result of the acquisition of Quality International are recorded in the year of acquisition, 2022. This is the
reason of increase in liabilities as compared to the year 2021.
These Borrowings are secured by the personal and corporate
guarantee of the founding shareholder of the company along with a registered mortgage over plant and machineries belonging to the company
Quality International, located in Hamriyah Free Zone phase-II, UAE.

Options and Warrants
The
Company chose not to record warrants in its financial books if the exercise price is significantly higher than the current market price
and classifies it as a contingent liability. For example, the common stock purchase warrant to Discover Growth Fund, LLC described
below has an exercise price of $0.275. As of December 31, 2022, the market price was $0.07, and by March 15, 2023, it had further decreased
to $0.04 when the Consolidated Financial Statements were being audited. The Company’s management classifies these warrants as a contingent
liability, given the decline in prices, making it unlikely that the warrants will be exercised in the future. The management reserves
warrant shares with its transfer agent. If the warrants should be exercised in the future the warrants will be accounted for in accordance
with ASC 480.
On
February 4, 2022, a Common Share Purchase Warrant was issued to Discover Growth Fund, LLC, of the $2,000,000 convertible promissory note

terms and conditions of this Warrant) at the Exercise Price of $0.275, per share then in effect.
On
December 2, 2022, we issued a common stock purchase warrant to AJB Capital Investment LLC for the $1,200,000 convertible promissory note.

on or after the date of issuance hereof, to purchase from the Company, 30,000,000 of the Company’s common shares (the “Warrant
Shares”) (whereby such number may be adjusted from time to time pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Warrant) at the Exercise
Price per share then in effect. The Warrant was later amended on March 8, 2023, and May 12, 2023.

on or after the date of issuance hereof, to purchase from the Company, 650,000 of the Company’s common shares (the “Warrant
Shares”) (whereby such number may be adjusted from time to time pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Warrant) at the Exercise
Price per share then in effect.

limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after the date of issuance hereof, to purchase from
the Company, 200,000 of the Company’s common

Ilustrato Pictures International Inc. on January 14, 2021, and we eventually got control over activities and books of accounts of Ilustrato

Due to above facts, we lack much information and evidence

for which we are not aware. Thus, our company may have to bear consequences for that from authorities. We cannot reasonably ascertain
an amount for those contingencies.

Note 17: Litigations with preceding
management.
FB Fire Technology Ltd:
As a part of share purchase arrangement
between Lee Larson Elmore and FB Technologies Global Inc., Nick Link, the owner of FB Technologies Global Inc. replaced Lee Larson Elmore
as CEO of Ilustrato Pictures International Inc. on January 14, 2021, and we eventually got control over activities and books of accounts
of Ilustrato Pictures International Inc. from the date January 14, 2021. But later in 2022, due to ongoing uncertainty regarding the outcome
of the litigation on lien-marked shares, hence we decided not to consolidate FB Fire’s financial statements.
We have been named as a defendant in an
action commenced by our former CEO, Larson Elmore. In general, we lack much information and evidence to support the assertions of financial
statements prior to the current management taking over and there are chances that preceding management of the company might have missed
compliances for which we are not aware. In compliance with Rule 12b-21, Given the ongoing legal proceeding it would require unreasonable
effort and/or expense with Larson Elmore with whom the knowledge and the information rests. We do not have the information on the following
items:

Ilustrato Pictures International Inc:
We have been named as a defendant
in an action commenced by Steve Nicol, who claims that he loaned $12,000 to a subsidiary of ILUS under a promissory note, but that ILUS
agreed to assume the note. He further claims that he elected to convert the note and that ILUS failed to convert the note into shares
of ILUS common stock. He has alleged breach of contract, declaratory relief, and specific performance to require the company to issue
75,000,000 shares of common stock in ILUS. The company obtained a settlement on September 6, 2023, and awaits the final court order.
We have been named as a defendant
in an action commenced by our former CEO, Larson Elmore. A case also has been filed in the Eight Judicial District Court of the State
of Nevada (Case No. A-22-858343-C). Plaintiff alleges that we breached a stock purchase agreement dated May 10, 2020, and promissory notes
and is therefore entitled to damages. We have potential counterclaims against the former CEO which are being prepared to arise out of
improper action and lack of disclosures during the takeover process. We filed a motion to dismiss
Larson Elmore’s complaint on the basis that it fails to state a claim and lacks jurisdiction in the Nevada courts. At
the hearing on this motion, the court determined that discovery would be required before ruling for the company and denied the motion
without prejudice. The company is evaluating a motion for reconsideration once the order has been entered. In the interim, the
parties have discussed a tentative discovery schedule and the possibility of a mediation and settlement conference.
We have been named as a defendant in an action
commenced by Black Ice Advisors LLC, regarding a historic note entered into by the previous CEO, Larson Elmore with a principal amount
of $4,000. The company dispute the legitimacy of the note. On June 5, 2023, we got a service of process by Superior Court of California,
County of San Diego, with a reschedule hearing on March 3, 2024. On August 22, 2023, the company received information that Black Ice Advisors
withdrew their prior demand for shares with a new motion seeking a monetary judgment in Black Ice’s in the amount of $3.772 million
for the historic note with a principal amount of $4,000. ILUS’ last day to file an opposition is October 20, 2023.
We cannot predict whether the
action against involving our former CEO and Black Ice Advisors is likely to result in any material recovery or expense to our company.
Where it is reasonably possible to do so, the Company accrues estimates of the probable costs for the resolution of these matters. These
estimates are based on an analysis of potential results and settlement strategies. It is possible, however, that future operating results
for any particular quarter or annual period could be affected by changes in assumption.
Note 18: Update of Financial Statements
The previously issued financial statements have been
updated to reflect the true and fair position and performance of the company.
Note 19: Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared
assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. Currently, the Company has incurred operating losses, and as of December 31,
2022 the Company also had a working capital deficit and an accumulated deficit. These factors raise substantially doubt about the Company’s
ability to continue as a going concern.
Management also believes the Company needs to raise
additional capital for working capital purpose. There is no assurance that such financing will be available in the future. The conditions
described above raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements of the Company do not
include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amount and classification of liabilities
that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going Ilustrato Pictures International Inc. recorded all revenue
generated from selected customers on a credit basis. At the end of the year, accounts receivable for the previous year and the current
year have not been collected. The management has represented that they will collect the cash for all outstanding account receivables due
from the previous years and current year.

Company and the Buyer have agreed that the principal amount of the Note will be deemed to
be increased by US$250,000.00 (the “Additional Principal Amount”), and to modify
the repayment schedule under the Note as set forth herein. |
| C. | Section

hereby. |

3.2 Conversion Price. The conversion price (the “Conversion Price”) shall equal the Variable Conversion Price (as defined herein) (subject to equitable adjustments by the Borrower relating to the Borrower’s securities, combinations, recapitalization, reclassifications, extraordinary distributions and similar events). The “Variable Conversion Price” shall mean 65% multiplied by the Market Price (as defined herein) (representing a discount rate of 35%). “Market Price” means the lowest Trading Price (as defined below) for the Common Stock during the ten (10) Trading Day period ending on the latest complete Trading Day prior to the Conversion Date. “Trading Price” means, for any security as of any date, the closing bid price on the OTCQB, OTCQX, Pink Sheets electronic quotation system or applicable trading market (the “OTC”) as reported by a reliable reporting service (“Reporting Service”) designated by the Holder (i.e. Bloomberg) or, if the OTC is not the principal trading market for such security, the closing bid price of such security on the principal securities exchange or trading market where such security is listed or traded or, if no closing bid price of such security is available in any of the foregoing manners, the average of the closing bid prices of any market makers for such security that are listed in the “pink sheets”. If the Trading Price cannot be calculated for such security on such date in the manner provided above, the Trading Price shall be the fair market value as mutually determined by the Borrower and the holders of a majority in interest of the Notes being converted for which the calculation of the Trading Price is required in order to determine the Conversion Price of such Notes. “Trading 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.
3.3 Notice and Conversion Procedures. After receipt of demand for repayment, the Company agrees to give the Holder notice at least five (5) business days prior to the time that the Company repays this Note. If the Holder elects to convert this Note, the Holder shall provide the Company with a written notice of conversion setting forth the amount to be converted. The notice must be delivered to the Company together with this Note. Within ten (10) business days of receipt of such notice, the Company shall deliver to the Holder certificate(s) or evidence of electronic book recording for the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion and, if the entire principal amount was not so converted, a new note representing such balance.
3.4 Other Conversion Provisions.
(a) Adjustment of Note Conversion Price. If the Company at any time subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) its outstanding shares into a greater number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced, and if the Company at any time combines (by reverse stock split, recapitalization or otherwise) its outstanding shares into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased.
(b) Common Stock Defined. Whenever reference is made in this Note to the shares of Common Stock, the term “Common Stock” shall mean the Common Stock of the Company authorized as of the date hereof, and any other class of stock ranking on a parity with such Common Stock.

3.5 No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of this Note. In lieu of the Company issuing any fractional shares to the Holder upon the conversion of this Note, the Company shall pay to the Holder the amount of outstanding principal hereunder that is not so converted.
3.6 Prepayment. At any time prior to the date that an Event of Defaults occurs under this note, the Company shall have the right, exercisable on four (4) Trading days prior written notice to the Holder of the note, to prepay the outstanding Principal Amount and interest then due under this note in accordance with this section 3.6. Any notice of prepayment hereunder (an “Optional Prepayment Notice”) shall be delivered to the holder of the Note at its registered addresses or by email and shall state: (1) that the Company is exercising its right to prepay the Note, and (2) the date of prepayment which shall be four (4) Trading days from the date of the Optional Prepayment Notice (the “Optional Prepayment Date”). Within two (2) Trading Day after the Holder’s receipt of the Optional Prepayment Notice, Holder shall specify in writing payment instructions to the Company. On the Optional Prepayment Date, the Company shall make payment of the amounts designated below to or upon the order of the Holder as specified by the Holder in writing to the Company. If the Company exercises its right to prepay the Note in accordance with this section, the Company shall make payment to the Holder of an amount in cash equal to the sum of : (w) 110% multiplied by the Principal Amount then outstanding plus (x) accrued and unpaid interest on the Principal Amount to the Optional Prepayment date.
4. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Company. The Company represents, warrants and covenants with the Holder as follows:
(a) Authorization; Enforceability. All corporate action on the part of the Company, its officers, directors and stockholders necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery of this Note and the performance of all obligations of the Company hereunder has been taken, and this Note constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms except (i) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies.

PROMISSORY NOTE
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, ILUSTRATO PICTURES INTERNATIONAL,

DIAGONAL LENDING LLC, a Virginia limited liability company, or registered assigns (the “Holder”) the sum of
$118,367.00 together with any interest as set forth herein, on August 30, 2024 (the “Maturity Date”), and to pay
interest on the unpaid principal balance hereof from the date hereof (the “Issue Date”) as set forth herein. 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 twenty two percent (22%) per annum from the due date thereof
until the same is paid (“Default Interest”). All payments due hereunder (to the extent not converted into common stock,
$0.001 par value per share (the “Common 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 “Purchase 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. GENERAL TERMS
1.1 Interest.
A one-time interest charge of thirteen percent (13%) (the “Interest Rate”) shall be applied on the Issuance Date to the
Principal ($118,367.00 * thirteen percent (13%) = $15,387.00). Interest hereunder shall be paid as set forth herein to the Holder or
its assignee in whose name this Note is registered on the records of the Company regarding registration and transfers of Notes in
cash or, in the Event of Default, at the Option of the Holder, converted into share of Common Stock as set forth herein.

30, 2023 with eight (8) subsequent payments each month thereafter. The Company shall have a five (5) day grace period with respect to
each payment. The Company has right to accelerate payments or prepay in full at any time with no prepayment penalty. All payments shall
be made by bank wire transfer to the Holder’s wire instructions, attached hereto as Exhibit A. For the avoidance of doubt, a missed
payment shall be considered an Event of Default.
1.3 Security. This Note shall not be
secured by any collateral or any assets pledged to the Holder
ARTICLE II. CERTAIN COVENANTS
2.1 Sale of Assets.
So long as the Borrower shall have any obligation under this Note, the Borrower shall not, without the Holder’s written consent,
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 be conditioned on a specified use of the proceeds of disposition.
ARTICLE III. EVENTS OF DEFAULT
This Note shall be deemed in default
upon the occurrence of one more of the events set forth in this Article III (each, an “Event of Default”). Upon the occurrence
of an Event of Default, Holder, prior to exercising its rights hereunder, shall provide to Borrower written notification via both electronic
mail (with confirmation of receipt) and another notification delivery method as set forth in Section 5.2 of this Note that an Event of
Default has occurred. After receipt of such notice, Borrower shall have five (5) business days to cure such Default (or such other longer
cure period as set forth in this Article III for a particular Event of Default) if such Event of Default is capable of being cured. In
the event that an Event of Default is not completely cured during such time period, Holder may exercise his rights hereunder.
3.1
Failure to Pay Principal and Interest. The Borrower fails to pay the principal hereof or interest thereon when due on this
Note, whether at maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise.
3.2
Breach 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 ten (10) days.
3.3
Breach 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.
3.4
Receiver 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.
3.5

for relief under any bankruptcy law or any law for the relief of debtors shall be instituted by or against the Borrower or any subsidiary
of the Borrower.
3.6

3.8
Liquidation. Any dissolution, liquidation, or winding up of Borrower or any substantial portion of its business.
3.9
Cessation of Operations. Any cessation of operations by Borrower 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 “going
concern” shall not be an admission that the Borrower cannot pay its debts as they become due.
3.10 Financial
Statement Restatement. The restatement of any financial statements filed by the Borrower with the SEC 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.
3.11
Replacement of Transfer Agent. 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.
3.12 Cross-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.
“Other Agreements” means, collectively, all agreements and instruments between, among or by: (1) the Borrower, and, or
for the benefit of, and (2) the Holder and any affiliate of the Holder, including, without limitation, promissory notes evidencing
obligations of the Borrower to the Holder; provided, however, the term “Other 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, 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% (“Default Percentage”) 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 “Mandatory 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 Article IV 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 “Default 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. Any failure to deliver shares in conversion following a default shall result in a unilateral
increase of the Default Percentage to 200%.
If the Borrower fails to pay the Default
Amount within five (5) business days of written notice that such amount is due and payable, then the Holder shall have the right at any
time, to convert the balance owed pursuant to the note including the Default Amount into shares of common stock of the Company as set
forth herein.
ARTICLE IV. CONVERSION RIGHTS
4.1 Conversion Right. At
any time following an Event of Default, the Holder shall have the right, to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid
amount of this Note into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, as such Common Stock exists on the Issue Date, or 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 determined as provided herein (a “Conversion”); 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 4.99% 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 “Exchange 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 B(the “Notice of Conversion”), delivered to the Borrower by the Holder in accordance
with Section 4.4 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
“Conversion Date”); however, if the Notice of Conversion is sent after 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time the Conversion
Date shall be the next business day. The term “Conversion 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) at the Holder’s option,
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 4.4 hereof.
4.2
Conversion Price. The conversion price (the “Conversion Price”) shall mean 65% multiplied by the lowest Trading
Price for the Common Stock during the ten (10) Trading Days prior to the Conversion Date (representing a discount rate of 35%) (subject
to equitable adjustments 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). “Trading Price” means,
for any security as of any date, the closing bid price on the OTCQB, OTCQX, Pink Sheets electronic quotation system or applicable trading
market (the “OTC”) as reported by a reliable reporting service (“Reporting Service”) designated by the Holder
(i.e. Bloomberg) or, if the OTC is not the principal trading market for such security, the closing bid price of such security on the principal
securities exchange or trading market where such security is listed or traded or, if no closing bid price of such security is available
in any of the foregoing manners, the average of the closing bid prices of any market makers for such security that are listed in the “pink
sheets”. If the Trading Price cannot be calculated for such security on such date in the manner provided above, the Trading Price
shall be the fair market value as mutually determined by the Borrower and the holders of a majority in interest of the Notes being converted
for which the calculation of the Trading Price is required in order to determine the Conversion Price of such Notes. “Trading 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.
4.3
Authorized Shares. The Borrower covenants that during the period that the Note is outstanding, 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 five times the number of shares that is actually issuable upon full conversion of the Note (based on the
Conversion Price of the Note in effect from time to time initially 35,000,000 shares) (the “Reserved Amount”). The Reserved
Amount shall be increased 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 this Note.
4.4 Method of Conversion.
(a) Mechanics of
Conversion. As set forth in Section 4.1 hereof, at any time following an Event of Default, the balance due pursuant to 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 4.4(b), surrendering this Note at the principal office of
the Borrower (upon payment in full of any amounts owed hereunder). The Holder shall be entitled to deduct $500.00 from the
conversion amount in each Notice of Conversion to cover Holder’s deposit fees associated with each Notice of Conversion. Any
additional expenses incurred by Holder with respect to the Borrower’s transfer agent, for the issuance of the Common Stock into
which this Note is convertible into, shall immediately and automatically be added to the balance of the Note at such time as the
expenses are incurred by Holder.
(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
4.4, 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 “Deadline”) (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 (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities
Transfer (“FAST”) 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 and Withdrawal at Custodian
(“DWAC”) 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 solely due to action and/or inaction of the Borrower, the Borrower shall pay to the Holder $2,000 per day
in cash, for each day beyond the Deadline that the Borrower fails to deliver such Common Stock (the “Fail 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 4.4(e) are justified.
4.5
Concerning the Shares. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note may not be sold or transferred
unless: (i) such shares are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act or (ii) the Borrower or its transfer agent
shall have been furnished 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) (“Rule 144”); or (iii) such shares are transferred to an “affiliate”
(as defined in Rule 144) of the Borrower who agrees to sell or otherwise transfer the shares only in accordance with this Section 4.5
and who is an Accredited Investor (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).
Any restrictive legend on certificates
representing shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note shall be removed and the Borrower shall issue to the Holder
a new certificate therefore free of any transfer legend if the Borrower or its transfer agent shall have received an opinion of counsel
from Holder’s counsel, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions, to the effect
that (i) a public sale or transfer of such Common Stock may be made without registration under the Act, which opinion shall be accepted
by the Company so that the sale or transfer is effected; or (ii) in the case of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note,
such security is registered for sale by the Holder under an effective registration statement filed under the Act; or otherwise may be
sold pursuant to an exemption from registration. In the event that the Company does not reasonably accept the opinion of counsel provided
by the Holder with respect to the transfer of Securities pursuant to an exemption from registration (such as Rule 144), it will be considered
an Event of Default pursuant to this Note.
4.6 Effect of Certain Events.
(a) 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 4.6(a)
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.
(b)
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 “Distribution”), 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.
