1. Business
Vynleads, Inc. (“Vynleads”) was incorporated as a Delaware
corporation on July 15, 2015. We are a provider of health and wellness information principally targeted to people who have prediabetes
or type 2 diabetes. We provide information to our customers who are seeking to make healthy choices by providing clear, generic blueprints,
education, resources, and support. Our core product is our proprietary Lifestyle Blueprint, a digital guide that provides dietary recommendations
for a very low calorie eight-week diet together with information focusing on what, how and how much a person eats, nutritional information
and how a person’s body does and does not use food to enable our customers to continue leading a more successful lifestyle. We also
offer nutritional supplements and monthly subscriptions to our proprietary newsletter which covers a wide variety of healthy living-related
topics.
Our corporate headquarters are located in Rock Hill, South Carolina.
2. Going Concern
Our unaudited financial statements have been presented on the basis
that we are a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of
business. Since July 15, 2015, the date of our inception, we have experienced recurring operating losses and negative operating cash
flows, and have financed our recent working capital requirements primarily through the issuance of debt and equity securities, as
well as borrowings from related parties. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and
2021, we have reported net losses of $200,260 and
$195,853,
respectively. As of September 30, 2022, we had a negative working capital of $594,627 and
an accumulated deficit of $2,187,539.
As a result, management believes that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Despite our current sales, expense, cash flow projections, and aggregate
cash and holdback receivable from our merchant, net of reserve for refunds, of $15,764, we
will require substantial funds to expand service and product offerings into additional areas, market and promote our services and product
offerings; and develop and grow our infrastructure and corporate organization. Our capital requirements depend on numerous factors, including
but not limited to our ability to generate sufficient revenues to pay our operating expenses.
Our ability to meet our current and projected obligations depends
on our ability to generate sufficient sales and to control expenses and will require that we seek additional capital through private and/or
public financing sources. There can be no assurances that we will achieve our forecasted financial results or that we will be able to
raise additional capital to operate our business. Any such failure would have a material adverse impact on our liquidity and financial
condition and could force us to curtail or discontinue operations entirely and could require us to file for protection under bankruptcy
laws. These conditions raise substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern.
3. Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies
Accounting Principles
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements (the “Financial
Statements”) of Vynleads, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) have been prepared
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial
information and, therefore, do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In our opinion,
the Financial Statements contain all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary to present fairly our financial position as of
September 30, 2022 and the results of our operations and cash flows for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. The results of operations for the nine months
ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full 2022 fiscal year. The Financial Statements
should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the Company and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 (the “Form 10-K”).
VYNLEADS, INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2022 (UNAUDITED) |
Use of Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires
management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.
We believe that judgement is involved in determining the valuation of our reserve for refunds, our holdback reserve, the fair value-based
measurement of stock-based compensation, accruals and the estimated useful life of intangible assets. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions
as facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ
from these estimates and assumptions, and those differences could be material to the Financial Statements.
Cash
Cash includes cash on hand, is deposited at one area bank and may exceed
federally insured limits at times. We consider all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to
be cash equivalents. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents approximate their fair value.
Holdback Receivable
Holdback receivable includes a merchant holdback net of a reserve for refunds,
which reserve is $58 and $58 as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
Revenue Recognition
The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with Topic 606. Revenues
are recognized when the Company satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of the promised goods or services to our customers
at a point in time, in an amount specified in the contract with our customer and that reflects the consideration the Company expects to
be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The Company also assesses our customer’s ability and intention to pay, which
is based on a variety of factors including our customer’s historical payment experience and financial condition.
We generate revenues primarily from (i) internet content subscriptions
and (ii) sales of nutritional supplements. Revenues are recognized upon the acceptance of subscription membership or shipment of nutritional
supplements, provided that an order has been received or a contract executed, there are no uncertainties regarding customer acceptance,
the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection is deemed reasonably assured. If uncertainties regarding customer acceptance exist,
we recognize revenues when those uncertainties are resolved, and title has been transferred to the customer. Amounts collected or billed
prior to satisfying the above revenue recognition criteria are recorded as deferred revenue.
Our percentages of revenue by type for the three
and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 are as follows:

Advertising Costs
Advertising costs for the three months ended
September 30, 2022 and 2021 were $0
and $0,
respectively. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred or at the first time the advertising activity takes place. For the nine
months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 were $0
and $0,
respectively.
VYNLEADS, INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2022 (UNAUDITED) |
Loss Per Share
Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average
number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per common share is based upon the weighted-average common shares
outstanding during the period plus additional weighted-average common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common equivalent
shares result from the assumed exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants, the proceeds of which are then assumed to have been
used to repurchase outstanding common stock using the treasury stock method. In addition, the numerator is adjusted for any changes in
income (loss) that would result from the assumed conversion of potential shares. Potentially dilutive shares, which were excluded from
the diluted loss per share calculations because the effect would be antidilutive or the options and warrants exercise prices were greater
than the average market price of the common shares, were 585,766 shares for the three
and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.
Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes includes federal, state, local and foreign
taxes. Income taxes are accounted for under the liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated
future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and their respective tax bases.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates
expected to apply to taxable income in the year in which the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. We evaluate
the realizability of our deferred tax assets and establish a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that all or a portion
of deferred tax assets will not be realized.
We account for uncertain tax positions using a “more-likely-than-not”
threshold for recognizing and resolving uncertain tax positions. The evaluation of uncertain tax positions is based on factors including,
but not limited to, changes in tax law, the measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in tax returns, the effective settlement
of matters subject to audit, new audit activity and changes in facts or circumstances related to a tax position. We evaluate this tax
position on a quarterly basis. We also accrue for potential interest and penalties, if applicable, related to unrecognized tax benefits
in income tax expense.
Stock-Based Compensation
We account for stock based instruments
issued to employees and non-employees for services in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 718.
Stock-based
compensation is measured
at the grant date based on the estimated fair
value of the
award and is
recognized as an
expense over
the requisite service
period. Accordingly, the Black-Scholes
option pricing
model
is utilized to
derive
an estimated fair
value.
The Black-Scholes pricing model requires the consideration of the following
six variables for purposes of estimating fair value:
|
· |
the stock option exercise price; |
|
· |
the expected term of the option; |
|
· |
the grant date price of our common stock, which is issuable upon exercise of the option; |
|
· |
the expected volatility of our common stock; |
|
· |
the expected dividends on our common stock (we do not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future); and |
|
· |
the risk-free interest rate for the expected option term. |
Expected Dividends. We have never declared or paid any cash dividends
on any of our capital stock and do not expect to do so in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, we use an expected dividend yield of zero
to calculate the grant-date fair value of a stock option.
Expected Volatility. The expected volatility is a measure of the
amount by which our stock price is expected to fluctuate during the expected term of options granted. We determine the expected volatility
solely based upon the historical volatility of our common stock over a period commensurate with the option’s expected term. We do
not believe that the future volatility of our common stock over an option’s expected term is likely to differ significantly from
the past.
VYNLEADS, INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2022 (UNAUDITED) |
Risk-Free Interest Rate. The risk-free interest rate is the implied
yield available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a remaining term equal to the option’s expected term on the grant date.
Expected Term. For option grants subsequent to the adoption of the
fair value recognition provisions of the accounting standards, the expected life of stock options granted is based on the actual vesting
date and the end of the contractual term.
Grant
Date Price of Common Stock.
The closing market
price of our common stock on the
date of grant.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
We follow Accounting Standards Codification 820-10 (“ASC 820-10”),
“Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” for fair value measurements. ASC 820-10 defines fair value, establishes a framework
for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The standard provides a consistent definition of fair
value, which focuses on an exit price, which is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an
orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The standard also prioritizes, within the measurement of fair
value, the use of market-based information over entity specific information and establishes a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurement
based on the nature of inputs used in the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date.
The hierarchy established under ASC 820-10 gives the highest priority to
unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs
(Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820-10 are described below:
Level 1 - Pricing inputs are quoted prices
available in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date. As required by ASC 820-10, we do not adjust the quoted
price for these investments, even in situations where we hold a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted price.
Level 2 - Pricing inputs are quoted prices for similar investments,
or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term through corroboration with observable market
data. Level 2 includes investments valued at quoted prices adjusted for legal or contractual restrictions specific to these investments.
Level 3 - Pricing inputs are unobservable
for the investment, that is, inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants
would use in pricing the asset or liability. Level 3 includes investments that are supported by little or no market activity.
The carrying amounts of our cash, holdback receivable, prepaid expenses,
accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values due to their short-term maturities as of September 30, 2022 and December
31, 2021.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
We have evaluated all issued but not yet effective accounting pronouncements
and determined that they are either immaterial or not relevant to us.
4. Related Party Transactions
On March 16, 2021, the Company executed a note payable to Mr. Sergei Stetsenko,

6. Commitments and Contingencies
Employment Agreement
On June 14, 2018, we entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Mannine
pursuant to which he was engaged to serve as our Chief Executive Officer. The initial term of the agreement expires in June 2023, subject
to successive automatic one- year renewals unless a non-renewal notice is received by either party at least 90 days prior to the expiration
of the then current renewal term.
Mr. Mannine’s compensation includes:
|
· |
an annual base salary of $130,000, subject to an annual review with an increase of at least 5% per annum as determined by the board of directors; |
|
· |
an annual bonus as determined by the board of directors; |
|
· |
a grant of 10-year options to purchase 100,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.225 per share which vest upon the effectiveness of a registration statement to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission; |
|
· |
participation in all benefit plans we may offer our employees; and |
|
· |
20 paid vacation days annually. |
Mr. Mannine's employment agreement may be terminated, and he is entitled
to certain payments upon such termination, as follows:
|
· |
if we should terminate Mr. Mannine’s employment without “cause” or if he should resign for “good reason" or if a “change of control” occurs, we are obligated to pay him a lump-sum severance payment equal to the sum of three months’ base salary, plus one month for every year he was employed and 50% of three years annual bonus (based on the prior year’s compensation); |
|
· |
if Mr. Mannine’s employment is terminated as a result of his death or disability, he is entitled to receive his base salary and a pro-rata annual bonus, if any, based on the year during which such termination is effective; or |
|
· |
if we should terminate Mr. Mannine for “cause,” or if he voluntarily terminates the agreement, he is entitled to receive his base salary only through the date of termination, and he is not be entitled to any other compensation for the calendar year during which the termination occurs or any subsequent calendar period, including, but not limited to, any annual bonus, if any, that has not already been paid. |
The employment agreement with Mr. Mannine contains customary confidentiality,
non-compete and indemnification clauses.
On September 21, 2020, Mr. Mannine voluntarily agreed to cancel the employment
agreement and waive all cash due and any related accruals. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, $32,500 and
$97,500 respectively, is recorded as in-kind contribution of service provided by Mr. Mannine (See Notes 4 and 8).
Commitments
On March 8, 2018, we entered into an advisory agreement with a
scientific advisor to provide certain services to us. Pursuant to the agreement, we issued 100,000
five year common stock warrants at an exercise price of $0.90. Such warrants vest subject to certain milestones. As of September 30,
2022 and December 31, 2021, 100,000 of
these warrants have vested. We determined that the warrant had an initial fair value of $1,905.
We estimated the fair value of this warrant using the Black-Scholes option
pricing model, based on the following assumptions: the recent cash offering price of $0.225 as the estimated fair value of the underlying
common stock at the valuation measurement date; no dividend yield for all of the years; expected volatility of 45%; risk-free interest
rate of 2.63% and an expected life of 5 years.
On May 21, 2018, we entered into an Amended and Restated Strategic Financing
& Corporate Development Agreement with CRG which was amended and restated an earlier agreement entered into in October 2017. We have
engaged this company to serve as our non-exclusive strategic financing and corporate development services provider and to render certain
advice and services to us as we may reasonably request concerning equity or debt financings, strategic planning, merger and acquisition
possibilities, and business development activities. The scope of services under this agreement also includes introducing us to one or

The agreement was renewed in May 2023.

As compensation under the terms of this agreement, we agreed to pay CRG
Finance AG certain fees for transactions which are consummated during the term of the agreement and for a one year period following the
termination of the agreement, including:
|
· |
a fee equal to 7% of the proceeds received by us plus a warrant exercisable into 7% of the shares of our common stock at the offering price of our shares for sales by us of equity or equity-linked securities to non-U.S. Persons introduced to us by CRG Finance AG; |
|
|
|
|
· |
a fee equal to 1% of the total gross cash proceeds or non-cash consideration received by us, together with a five year warrant exercisable into 1% of the securities issued or to be issued by us in a business combination with a non-U.S. person first introduced to us by CRG Finance AG; |
|
|
|
|
· |
a fee equal to 1% of consideration received by us in any debt financing not convertible into equity, including, but not limited to, a revolving credit line or credit enhancement instrument, including on an insured or guarantee basis, with a non-U.S. Person first introduced to us by CRG Finance AG; and |
|
· |
a fee equal to 2% of any revenue-producing contract, fee-sharing arrangement, licensing, royalty or similar agreement with a non-U.S. Person first introduced to us by CRG Finance AG. |
In addition to the foregoing fees, we have agreed to reimburse CRG Finance
AG for its pre-approved out of pocket expenses it incurs under the terms of the agreement. The agreement contains customary confidentiality
and indemnification provisions.
On February 12, 2020, we entered a consulting
agreement with Primoris Group Inc (“Primoris”). Primoris was issued 200,000 common shares at a fair value of $45,000
($0.225
per share) on June 30, 2020. 100,000
shares are restricted from resale or transfer by Primoris per the consulting agreement until
February 11, 2021. The consultant has an option to register 100,000 on any future registration statement. In addition to any restrictions
imposed by the agreement, all the shares require an exemption for resale to the public. In addition
to any restrictions imposed by the agreement, all the shares require an exemption for resale to the public.
Under terms of the consulting agreement, we agreed to pay Primoris
$8,000
per month payable in advance of the month in which services are to be rendered as a consulting fee. The consulting agreement was not
renewed and expired on February 11, 2021. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, $96,000
and $96,000
are recorded as accrued expense, respectively.
Contingencies
In April 2016, we entered into a Promotion and Royalty Agreement (the “Agreement”)
with a consultant to obtain certain promotional services from him (the “Promoter”), including the use of his name and appearance.
In consideration for the services rendered by the Promoter, we agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to promote and sell a book
authored by him (the “Book”) and to pay him a percentage of the sales of the Book after deductions for all direct costs of
fulfilling such sales (the “Royalty”). During the course of 2017, the Promoter initiated a series of informal claims and filed
unauthorized uniform commercial code financing statements (“UCC Liens”) in several states as liens against us and certain
of our officers, directors, and founders, alleging non-payment for the Royalty amounts due under the Agreement. We dispute the Promoter’s
claims and have determined that any and all amounts due to the Promoter under the Agreement have been paid in full. We have succeeded
in removing certain of the UCC Liens and are pursuing action to remove the remaining unauthorized UCC Liens. We do not believe that the
claims of the Promoter are valid in any respect.
7. Concentration of Credit
Risk and Major Customers and Suppliers
Revenues are concentrated with a single customer composing of 100% total
revenues for the three and nine months ending September 30, 2022.
We purchase our inventory of herbal/natural supplements from one supplier.
While we believe that we will be able to find a secondary supplier, there could be a manufacturing delay in the transition to a new supplier
and such a supply interruption would materially impact our business for some period of time.
VYNLEADS, INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2022 (UNAUDITED) |
8. Stockholders’ Deficit
Our authorized capital stock consists of 50,000,000 shares of common stock,
par value $0.0001 per share, and 5,000,000 shares of blank check preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share. As of September 30, 2022 and
December 31, 2021, there are 11,599,830 and 11,599,830 shares of common stock outstanding
and there are no shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding at either date.
In-kind Contribution of Service
On September 21, 2020, Mr. Mannine voluntarily agreed to cancel his employment
agreement and waive all cash due and any related accruals. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, $32,500 and
$97,500 respectively, is recorded as in-kind contribution of service provided by Mr. Mannine (See Notes 4 and 6).
Preferred Stock
Our board of directors, without further stockholder approval, may issue
preferred stock in one or more series from time to time and fix or alter the designations, relative rights, priorities, preferences, qualifications,
limitations and restrictions of the shares of each series. The rights, preferences, limitations and restrictions of different series of
preferred stock may differ with respect to dividend rates, amounts payable on liquidation, voting rights, conversion rights, redemption
provisions, sinking fund provisions and other matters. Our board of directors may authorize the issuance of preferred stock, which ranks
senior to our common stock for the payment of dividends and the distribution of assets on liquidation. In addition, our board of directors
can fix limitations and restrictions, if any, upon the payment of dividends on both classes of our common stock to be effective while
any shares of preferred stock are outstanding.
Warrants
On October 10, 2017, we entered into the Financing Agreement with CRG.
In connection with the related equity financing as of December 31, 2017, CRG had earned 368,111 fully vested five-year warrants with an
exercise price of $0.225. The related warrants were issued in January 2018. We determined that the warrant had an initial fair value of
$34,405 and was recorded as a direct offering cost in Stockholders’ equity with a net effect of zero. We estimated the fair value
of this warrant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, based on the following assumptions: the recent cash offering price of $0.225
as the estimated fair value of the underlying common stock at the valuation measurement date; no dividend yield for all of the years;
expected volatility of 45%; risk-free interest rate of 2.2% and an expected life of 5 years.
During January 2018, as part of the Private Placement more fully described
in Note 4, CRG earned an additional 17,655 fully vested common stock warrants with an exercise price of $0.225. These additional warrants
were issued to CRG on January 30, 2018. We determined that the warrant had an initial fair value of $1,670 and was recorded as a direct
offering cost in Stockholders’ equity with a net effect of zero. We estimated the fair value of this warrant using the Black-Scholes
option pricing model, based on the following assumptions: the recent cash offering price of $0.225 as the estimated fair value of the
underlying common stock at the valuation measurement date; no dividend yield for all of the years; expected volatility of 45%; risk-free
interest rate of 2.51% and an expected life of 5 years.
On March 8, 2018, we entered into an advisory agreement with a scientific
advisor to provide certain services to us. Pursuant to the agreement, we issued 100,000 five-year common stock warrants at an exercise
price of $0.90. Such warrants vest subject to certain milestones. As of March 31, 2022 and
December 31, 2021, 100,000 of these warrants have vested. We determined that the warrant had
an initial fair value of $1,905. We estimated the fair value of this warrant using the Black- Scholes option pricing model, based on the
following assumptions: the recent cash offering price of $0.225 as the estimated fair value of the underlying common stock at the valuation
measurement date; no dividend yield for all of the years; expected volatility of 45%; risk-free interest rate of 2.63% and an expected
life of 5 years.
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the intrinsic value for warrants
outstanding and exercisable is $19,288 and $28,932, respectively.

9. Stock Option Plan
In December 2017 our board of directors adopted our 2017 Equity Incentive
Plan, or the “2017 Plan.” Our stockholders ratified the 2017 Plan in December 2017. The purpose of the 2017 Plan is to encourage
ownership in our company by our officers, directors, employees and consultants, and to incentivize and align the interests of the plan
participants with the interests of our stockholders. We have reserved 1,100,000 shares of our common stock for issuance under the 2017
Plan. Grants pursuant to the 2017 Plan may be: i) incentive stock options; ii) non-statutory stock options; iii) stock awards, including
shares of our common stock and stock units; and iv) stock appreciation rights.
The board of directors or a committee of the board of directors administers
the 2017 Plan. Presently, the 2017 Plan is administered by our board of directors. The term of each plan option and the manner in which
it may be exercised is determined by the board of directors or a committee of the board of directors, provided that no option may be exercisable
more than 10 years after the date of its grant and, in the case of an incentive option granted to an eligible employee owning more than
10% of the common stock, no more than five years after the date of the grant. The terms of grants or any other type of award under the
plan are determined by the board of directors or committee of the board of directors at the time of grant. The 2017 Plan provides that
the maximum value of any award during any calendar year cannot exceed $1,000,000.
VYNLEADS, INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2022 (UNAUDITED) |
Any option granted under the plan must provide for an exercise price of
not less than 100% of the fair market value of the underlying shares on the date of grant, but the exercise price of any ISO granted under
the 2017 Plan to an eligible employee owning more than 10% of our outstanding common stock must not be less than 110% of fair market value
on the date of the grant. The 2017 Plan further provides that with respect to ISOs the aggregate fair market value of the common stock
underlying the options which are exercisable by any plan participant during any calendar year cannot exceed $100,000. Option awards may
provide for the exercise by means of cash, consideration received by us under a broker-assisted sale and remittance program, cashless
exercise, any other consideration legally permitted, or a combination of the foregoing. The 2017 Plan administrator may also determine
the method of payment of the exercise price at the time the option is being exercised. Grants under the 2017 Plan are not transferrable.
Generally, options which are exercisable at the date of the plan participant’s
termination from our employment or severance of the relationship with our company must be exercised within three months of the termination
date; the plan administrator may extend the exercise period of the option for a separated plan participant providing that the extended
date does not go beyond the original expiration date of the option. Similarly, generally options which are exercisable at the date of
the plan participant’s disability or death must be exercised within six months of the termination date in the event of the disability
of the plan participant or 12 months following the plan participant’s death. In our discretion, any outstanding options held by
a plan participant terminated for cause may be immediately cancelled.
In the event there is a “change in control” of our company
as defined in the 2017 Plan, as determined by the board of directors or the committee, we may in our discretion: i) provide for the assumption
or substitution of, or adjustment (including to the number and type of shares and exercise or purchase price applicable) to, each outstanding
award; ii) accelerate the vesting of options and terminate any restrictions on stock awards; and/or iii) provide for termination of awards
as a result of the change in control on such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate, including providing for the cancellation of
awards for a cash or other payment to the participant.
The number of shares of our common stock underlying any outstanding but
unexercised option and the exercise price of that option will be proportionally adjusted in the event of a stock split, stock combinations,
dividends, and similar corporate events.
On June 14, 2018, pursuant to the employment agreement with Mr. Mannine,
more fully described in Note 6, we issued 100,000 stock options with an exercise price of
$0.225. Such options fully vested upon the effectiveness of a registration statement on Form S-1. We determined that the options had an
initial fair value of $13,221. We estimated the fair value of these options using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, based on the
following assumptions: the recent cash offering price of $0.225 as the estimated fair value of the underlying common stock at the valuation
measurement date; no dividend yield for all of the years; expected volatility of 45%; risk-free interest rate of 2.2% and an expected
life of 10 years. We amortized the fair value over the period from their issuance on June 14, 2018 through December 7, 2018, the date
on which the registration statement was declared effective. No stock option expense was recorded during the three
and nine
months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.
As of September 30, 2022 and December
31, 2021, the intrinsic value for options outstanding and exercisable is $5,000 and $7,500, respectively.

and exercisable as of as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:
