NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF
SIGNIFICANT ACCCOUNTING POLICIES
Background
NanoFlex Power Corporation (‘we”
“our”, the “Company”), formerly known as Universal Technology Systems, Corp., was incorporated in the
State of Florida on January 28, 2013. On September 24, 2013, the Company completed the acquisition of Global Photonic Energy Corporation,
a Pennsylvania corporation (“GPEC”), pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange Transaction”).
Immediately following the closing of the Share Exchange Transaction, the Company owned 100% of the equity interests of GPEC and
GPEC became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. On November 25, 2013, the Company changed its name from “Universal
Technology Systems, Corp.” to “NanoFlex Power Corporation” and its trading symbol was changed to “OPVS”
on December 26, 2013.
GPEC was incorporated in Pennsylvania on February
7, 1994. The Company is organized to fund, develop, commercialize and license advanced photovoltaic technologies that enable thin
film solar products with what we believe to be industry-leading efficiencies, light weight, flexibility, and low total system
cost.
These technologies are targeted at certain
broad applications, including: (a) portable and off-grid power generation, (b) building applied photovoltaics (“BAPV”),
(c) building integrated photovoltaics (“BIPV”), (d) space vehicles and unmanned aerial vehicles (“UAVs”),
(e) semi-transparent solar power generating windows or glazing, (f) ultra-thin solar films for automobiles or other consumer applications
and (g) solar powered sensors.
We believe these technologies have been demonstrated
in a laboratory environment with our research partners. The Company is currently taking steps to pursue product development and
commercialization on some of these technologies in collaboration with industry partners and potential customers.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated
financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote
disclosures have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated
financial statements include normal recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim
periods presented. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results
of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the
full fiscal year or any other periods.
The preparation of the consolidated financial
statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make a number of estimates
and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, expenses, and related disclosures. Actual results may differ
from these estimates.
Going Concern
The Company has generated limited revenue
to date. The Company has a working capital deficit of $11,025,498 and an accumulated deficit of $240,215,681 as of June 30, 2019.
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on raising capital to fund ongoing operations and carry
out its business plan and ultimately to attain profitable operations. Accordingly, these factors raise substantial doubt as to
the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to
the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary
in the event the Company cannot continue in existence. To date, the Company has funded its initial operations primarily by way
of the sale of equity securities, convertible note financing, short term financing from private parties, and advances from related
parties.
Basic and Diluted Earnings per share
Net loss per share is provided in accordance
with FASB ASC 260-10, “Earnings per Share”. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing losses available to common
stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share gives effect
to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares
if their effect is anti-dilutive as shown below:

Leases
The Company determines if an arrangement is
a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and operating lease
liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. Finance leases are included in property and equipment, other current liabilities,
and other long-term liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. As of adoption of ASC 842 and as of January 1, 2019, the Company
was not party to finance lease arrangements.
ROU assets represent the Company’s right
to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments
arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value
of lease payments over the lease term. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses
its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease
payments. The Company uses the implicit rate when readily determinable. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease
payments made and excludes lease incentives. The lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably
certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over
the lease term.
Under the available practical expedient, we
account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02,
Leases (“ASU 2016-02”). This new standard establishes a right-of-use (ROU) model that requires a lessee to record
a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified
as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. ASU
2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years.
Early adoption is permitted. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11 which provides an alternative transition method that
allows entities to apply the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening
balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The Company has adopted the requirements of ASU 2016-02 on January 1,
2019, the first day of fiscal year 2019, and using the modified retrospective method. The Company also elected the practical expedient
under ASU 2018-11 “Leases: Targeted Improvements” which allows the Company to apply the transition provision for Topic
842 at the Company’s adoption date instead of at the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements.
Therefore, the Company recognized and measured leases existing at January 1, 2019 but without retrospective application. Therefore,
there was no impact recorded to beginning retained earnings or the statement of operations. The Company took advantage of the
practical expedient options, which allows an entity not to reassess whether any existing or expired contracts contain leases.
There was an increase in assets and liabilities of $56,047 due to the recognition of the required right-of-use asset and corresponding
liability for all lease obligations that are currently classified as operating leases. See Note 5 for details.
The Company reviewed other newly issued accounting
pronouncements and concluded that they either are not applicable to the Company’s operations or that no material effect
is expected on the Company’s financial statements upon future adoption.
2: RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

- 61% of the lowest sale price of the common stock during the 15 to 25 consecutive trading days prior to the date of conversion.
During the six months ended June 30, 2019,
the Company entered into various note and share purchase agreements with accredited investors pursuant to which the investors
purchased convertible notes in the aggregate of $893,000, along with additional shares of the Company’s common stock to

90-day period. This obligation was determined to be a liability under ASC 480. Total amortization for the period from inception
through June 30, 2019 was $417,294. As of June 30, 2019, the fair value of the shares was determined to be $898,109 based on the

shares of the Company’s common stock on July 1, 2019 and an additional one million shares on August 1, 2019 as the note
was not paid in full. The Company fair valued all of the common stock on the modification date and concluded that it qualified

4. EQUITY
Preferred Stock
On February 15, 2019, the Company established
a series of redeemable participating convertible preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share, pursuant to a Certificate of Designation
of Series A Redeemable Participating Convertible Preferred Stock dated February 15, 2019.
Pursuant to the Certificate of Designation,
the Company authorized 10,000 shares of the Series A Preferred Stock (“preferred stock”), which shall be convertible
into shares of common stock of the Company at the option of the holders thereof at any time after the issuance of the preferred
stock, at a conversion price equal to $0.10 subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments.
So long as 50% of the preferred stock that
has been issued remains outstanding, the holders thereof will have the right to participate ratably in any offering of common
stock of the Company or any other securities of the Company that would entitle the holder thereof to acquire common stock of the
Company.
The holders of preferred stock shall be entitled
to receive dividends when and as declared by the Board of Directors. No dividends (other than those payable solely in common stock)
shall be paid on the common stock or any class or series of capital stock ranking junior, as to dividends, to the preferred stock
during any fiscal year of the Company until there shall have been paid or declared and set apart during that fiscal year for the
holders of the preferred stock a dividend in an amount per share equal to (i) the number of shares of common stock issuable upon
conversion of the preferred stock times (ii) the amount per share of the dividend to be paid on the common stock. No dividends
were declared for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
Upon the occurrence of any liquidation, dissolution
or winding up of the Company, either voluntary or involuntary (a “Liquidating Event”), each holder of preferred stock
then outstanding shall be entitled to receive, out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to its stockholders,
before any payment shall be made in respect of the common stock, an amount per share of preferred stock equal to three (3) times
the price such holder paid to purchase such preferred stock plus, accrued and unpaid dividends (the “Preferred Liquidation
Preference”). Such Preferred Liquidation Preference shall be secured by a first priority security interest on all of the
Company’s assets. The following events shall be deemed a Liquidating Event: (i) a sale, lease, exchange, exclusive license
which has the same effect as a sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or other disposition of all or substantially
all of the Company’s assets in one transaction or a series of related transactions and (ii) a merger, tender offer, reorganization,
business combination or other transaction as a result of which (a) holders of the Company’s issued and outstanding voting
securities immediately before such transaction own or control less than a majority of the voting securities of the continuing
or surviving entity immediately after such transaction or (b) any of the preferred stock is converted into any other property
or security. It was determined the preferred stock has a deemed liquidation redemption feature that triggers temporary equity
classification under ASC 480.
The holders of shares of preferred stock shall
vote together with the holders of common stock as a single class. The holder of each share of preferred stock (i) shall be entitled
to the number of votes with respect to such share equal to the number of shares of common Stock into which such share of preferred
stock could be converted on the record date for the subject vote or written consent ( or, if there is no such record date, then
on the date that such vote is taken or consent is effective) and (ii) shall be entitled to notice of any stockholders’ meeting
in accordance with the Bylaws of the Company. Fractional votes shall not be permitted, and any fractional voting rights resulting
from the above formula (after aggregating all shares of common stock into which shares of preferred stock held by each holder
could be converted) shall be reduced to the nearest whole number.
During the six months ended June 30, 2019,
the Company issued an aggregate of 4,830 shares of its preferred stock related to the conversion of $4,693,575 of debt and $122,428
of interest expense. See convertible debt discussion in Note 3 for more details.

the Company issued 29,346,300 shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to certain debt agreements, related to the maturity
of various convertible notes totaling $5,869,260. See the convertible debt section in Note 3 for more details.
During the six months ended June 30, 2019,
the Company issued 480,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to certain note holders in exchange for accrued interest
of $48,000. The fair value of the common stock was determined to be $27,216 and resulted in a gain on settlement of accrued interest
of $20,784.
During the six months ended June 30, 2019,
the Company entered into a two letter agreements with an investor pursuant to which the investor agreed to extend the maturity
date of a convertible note in exchange for the issuance of 1,000,500 shares of the Company’s common stock on March 1, 2019,
and the issuance of 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock on the first day of each month through August 1, 2019.
The aggregate fair value of the 4,000,500 shares issued during the six months ended June 30, 2019, was determined to be $289,000
based on the stock price on March 1, April 1, May 1, and June 1, 2019 which was recorded as loss on extinguishment of debt. Pursuant
to these agreements, an additional 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock were issued on July 1, 2019 and August
1, 2019.
During the six months ended June 30, 2019,
the Company issued an aggregate of 540,000 shares of its common stock related to the conversion of $50,000 of principal and $4,000
accrued interest expense on convertible notes.
During the six months ended June 30, 2019,
an aggregate of 3,300,000 warrants were exercised cashlessly resulting in the issuance of 2,200,000 common shares.
During the six months ended June 30, 2019,
an aggregate of 1,846,843 warrants were modified to reduce the exercise price to $0.10 per share pursuant to a debt modification
and exercised resulting in a total issuance of 1,846,843 common shares. Rather than receiving cash proceeds of $184,683, the Company
netted this amount against convertible note payoffs totaling $231,500. The remaining $46,817 owed to two noteholders was paid
by the issuance of 47 shares of Preferred Stock.

and the remaining $58,720 will be expensed equally over the remaining term. On March 31, 2019, Mr. DaVella terminated his employment
with the Company. The remaining two tranches totaling 900,000 warrants were forfeited upon termination of the Employment Agreement
on March 31, 2019. Warrant expense of $248,486 was recaptured during the six months ended June 30, 2019.
On February 5, 2019, the Company issued warrants
to purchase an aggregate of 2,500,000 shares of its Common Stock to three of its employees as a bonus in exchange for services
to be provided to the Company. The warrants have a 10-year term, a $0.10 exercise price and will vest 25% annually for 4 years
beginning on the first anniversary date. The aggregate fair value of the warrants was determined to be $129,906 using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model. Warrant expense of $28,192 was recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2019.

5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Sponsored Research and License Agreements
Research and development of the Company’s
high efficiency solar thin films and OPV technologies are conducted in collaboration with University partners through sponsored
research agreements.
The Company established direct research and
development agreements with Michigan on June 16, 2016, which were amended on July 21, 2016, to provide engineering support and
facility access associated with technology transfer and commercialization of its high efficiency thin film solar technologies.
Such research agreements were terminated on August 31, 2017 and replaced with a time and materials contract for access to Michigan’s
Labs by the Company’s technicians.
A separate research agreement dated December
20, 2013, among the Company and USC (the “2013 Research Agreement”), governs research conducted by USC and Michigan
on high efficiency thin film and OPV technologies. Michigan is a subcontractor to USC on this research agreement. The 2013 Research
Agreement expires on January 31, 2021.
On August 8, 2016, the Company amended the
2013 Research Agreement with USC, suspending the agreement effective as of August 15, 2016. The Company requested this amendment
to suspend its OPV-related sponsored research activities to reduce near-term expenditures to allow the Company to bring its account
with USC current through a payment plan. The suspension is to continue until the date that is 30 days after expenses incurred
by USC have been reimbursed by the Company. Under this amendment, the Company repaid expenses to USC in quarterly installments
of $206,000 from November 2016 through February 2018.
Under the Company’s currently effective
License Agreement, as amended on August 22, 2016, among the Company and USC, Michigan, and Princeton (the “Fourth Amendment
to License Agreement”), wherein the Company has obtained the exclusive worldwide license and right to sublicense any and
all intellectual property resulting from the Company’s sponsored research agreements, we have agreed to pay for all reasonable
and necessary out of pocket expenses incurred in the preparation, filing, maintenance, renewal and continuation of patent applications
designated by the Company. In addition, the Company is required to pay to USC 3% of net sales of licensed products or licensed
processes used, leased or sold by the Company, 3% of revenues received by the Company from the sublicensing of patent rights and
23% of revenues (net of costs and expenses, including legal fees) received by the Company from final judgments in infringement
actions respecting the patent rights licensed under the agreement. A previous amendment to the License Agreement (the Third Amendment
to License Agreement dated December 20, 2013) amended the minimum royalty section to eliminate the accrual of any such royalties
until 2014. Furthermore, the amounts of the non-refundable minimum royalties, which would be applicable starting in 2014, were
adjusted to be lower than the amounts in the previous License Agreement. Minimum royalties are $100,000 per year for the remainder
of the contract.
There is currently no ongoing research activity
at Princeton, USC and Michigan related to the Company, although the Company maintains licensing rights to technology previously
developed there.
Leases
The Company has two operating leases, one
for office space in Scottsdale, Arizona and one for laboratory and office space in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The office lease in Scottsdale,
Arizona is renewed on a monthly basis and was therefore scoped out of ASC 842 while the laboratory and office space lease in Ann
Arbor, Michigan has a remaining term of 1.3 years. When this lease expires, it becomes renewable on a monthly basis. In June 2019,
an addendum was added to this lease increasing the monthly payments to $2,875 in exchange for more office space. Lease expense
was $14,232 for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
