FREEZE TAG, INC.

(A DELAWARE CORPORATION)

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023

(Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 – THE COMPANY AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

 

Nature of Operations

 

Freeze Tag, Inc. (“Freeze Tag” or the “Company”) is a leading creator of mobile location-based games for consumers and businesses. The Company also offers gaming technology and services to businesses that want to leverage mobile gaming in their marketing and branding programs.

 

Beginning in the quarter ended March 31, 2020, our wholly-owned subsidiary, Space Coast Geo Store, LLC, a Florida limited liability company, sells merchandise to the geocaching industry. The LLC was filed with the State of Florida on September 3, 2019 and there was no activity in the entity from the time of filing until it began operations in the quarter ended March 31, 2020.

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) requires the Company’s management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in its financial statements and accompanying notes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates and these differences may be material.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company’s revenues are derived primarily by licensing software products in the form of mobile games for smartphone and tablet platforms. Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

 

We determine revenue recognition through the following steps:

 

 

·

identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;

 

·

identification of the performance obligations in the contract;

 

·

determination of the transaction price;

 

·

allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

 

·

recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.

Table of Contents

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment is stated at cost and is depreciated or amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the related asset as follows:

 

Vehicle

 

5 years

Computer equipment

 

5 years

Office furniture and equipment

 

7 years

 

Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Significant renewals and betterments will be capitalized. At the time of retirement or other disposition of equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation will be removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss, if any, will be reflected in operations.

 

The Company will assess the recoverability of property and equipment by determining whether the depreciation and amortization of these assets over their remaining life can be recovered through projected undiscounted future cash flows. The amount of equipment impairment, if any, will be measured based on fair value and is charged to operations in the period in which such impairment is determined by management.

 

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets consist primarily of intellectual property, customer base and non-compete agreements acquired in 2017, which are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of 5 years. Intangible assets are reviewed for impairment annually, or more frequently whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable. If the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the expected undiscounted cash flows of the asset, an impairment charge is recognized equal to the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds fair value. The testing of these intangibles under established guidelines for impairment requires significant use of judgment and assumptions. Changes in forecasted operations and other assumptions could materially affect the estimated fair values. Changes in business conditions could potentially require adjustments to these asset valuations.

 

Income Taxes

 

We account for income taxes using ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ASC Topic 740”). Under ASC Topic 740, income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

ASC Topic 740 includes accounting guidance which clarifies the accounting for the uncertainty in recognizing income taxes in an organization by providing detailed guidance for financial statement recognition, measurement and disclosure involving uncertain tax positions. This guidance requires an uncertain tax position to meet a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold at the effective date to be recognized both upon the adoption of the related guidance and in subsequent periods.

 

The Company has no uncertain tax positions at any of the dates presented.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718-10, Compensation-Stock Compensation and ASC Subtopic 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the requisite services period is based on the value of share-based payment awards after reduction for estimated forfeitures. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and are revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.

Table of Contents

 

The Company had no stock-based compensation expense recognized in its statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

 

Earnings per Share

 

The computation of basic earnings per common share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. The computation of diluted earnings per common share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period plus the weighted average common stock equivalents which would arise from the exercise of stock options, warrants, convertible preferred stock and other rights during the period.

 

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the diluted weighted average number of shares is the same as the basic weighted average number of shares as the inclusion of any common stock equivalents would be anti-dilutive. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the diluted weighted average number of shares includes 13,303,000 common shares issuable upon conversion of Series B preferred stock and 217,750,000 common shares issuable upon conversion of Series C preferred stock.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, diluted weighted average number of shares also includes 183,299 from outstanding stock options using the treasury stock method.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

In accordance with current accounting standards, certain assets and liabilities must be measured at fair value. ASC 820 defines fair value as 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 (an exit price). The standard outlines a valuation framework and creates a fair value hierarchy in order to increase the consistency and comparability of fair value measurements and the related disclosures. ASC 820 requires that certain assets and liabilities must be measured at fair value, and the standard details the disclosures that are required for items measured at fair value. The Company had no assets and liabilities required to be measured on a recurring basis at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

 

The current assets and current liabilities reported on the Company’s balance sheets are estimated by management to approximate fair market value due to their short-term nature.

 

Software Development Costs

 

Software development costs include direct costs incurred for internally developed products and payments made to independent software developers and/or contract engineers and artists. The Company accounts for software development costs in accordance with the FASB guidance for the costs of computer software to be sold, leased, or otherwise marketed as found in ASC Subtopic 985-20. On a case-by-case basis, certain software development costs are capitalized once the technological feasibility of a product is established, and such costs are determined to be recoverable. Technological feasibility of a product encompasses both technical design documentation and game design documentation, or the completed and tested product design and working model. Software development costs are capitalized once technological feasibility of a product is established and such costs are determined to be recoverable against future revenues. For products where proven game engine technology exists, this may occur early in the development cycle.

 

Significant management judgments and estimates are utilized in the assessment of when technological feasibility is established. For most products, technological feasibility is established when a detailed game design document containing sufficient technical specifications written for a proven game engine or framework technology had been created and approved by management. However, technological feasibility is evaluated on a product-by-product basis. Amounts related to software development that are not capitalized are charged immediately to the appropriate expense account. Amounts that were considered ‘research and development’ that are not capitalized are immediately charged to general and administrative expense.

 

Prior to a product’s release, the Company expenses, as part of “Cost of Sales—Product Development,” capitalized costs when the Company believes such amounts are not recoverable. Capitalized costs for those products that are cancelled or abandoned are charged to product development expense in the period of cancellation. Commencing upon product release, capitalized software development costs are amortized to “Cost of Sales—Product Development” based on the straight-line method.

 

 The Company evaluates the future recoverability of capitalized software development costs and intellectual property licenses on an annual basis. For products that have been released in prior years, the primary evaluation criterion is actual title performance. For products that are scheduled to be released in future years, recoverability is evaluated based on the expected performance of the specific products to which the costs relate or in which the licensed trademark or copyright is to be used. Criteria used to evaluate expected product performance include: historical performance of comparable products developed with comparable technology; orders for the product prior to its release; and, for any sequel product, estimated performance based on the performance of the product on which the sequel was based.

 

The Company had no impairment expense, related to capitalized software development costs, recognized in the Company’s statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 or 2022.

 

Based on the previous trends in the Company’s business, management has determined the expected shelf life of the majority of a game’s revenue will be realized over a three to five-year period and will expense capitalized production costs from the date of the initial release, or first sale of the product for a specific technology platform. It is possible that the same game developed on different technology platforms (such as PC and Mac, or iOS and Android) would be launched on different release dates because product development cycles may differ and distribution partner release policies may differ.

 

At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had $545,100 and $370,639 respectively, of capitalized software development costs in other assets on the balance sheet. The Company recognized amortization expense of $7,672 and $0 in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Although there were new accounting pronouncements issued or proposed by the FASB during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and through the date of filing of this report, the Company does not believe any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no material impact on net earnings, financial position or cash flows.

 

NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTY

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes continuity of operations and realization of assets and liabilities in the ordinary course of business. As shown in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company had a net loss of $71,207 and used net cash of $236,733 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had a working capital deficit of $505,952 and a total stockholders’ deficit of $107,919. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Management believes that by continuing to implement cost reductions, and by increasing revenue from updated product lines, operating cash flows will be sufficient to support the Company’s business plan. However, management is currently evaluating alternative financing sources to fund the Company’s current business plan should cash provided by operations be insufficient.

 

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon successfully executing its plans to attain a successful level of operations. The Company’s financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if it were unable to continue as a going concern.

On April 30, 2020, the Company received a U.S. Small Business Administration Loan under the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP Loan) primarily for payroll costs related to the COVID-19 crisis in the amount of $174,420. Under the Paycheck Protection Program, the PPP Loan has a fixed interest rate of 1%, a maturity date two years from the date of the funding of the loan and no payments are due for six months. Pursuant to the terms of the PPP Loan, the Company may apply for forgiveness of the amount due on the PPP Loan in an amount equal to the sum of the following costs incurred by the Company during the 8-week period (or any other period that may be authorized by the U.S. Small Business Association) beginning on the date of first disbursement of the loan: payroll costs, any payment of interest on a covered mortgage obligation, payment on a covered rent obligation, and any covered utility payment. The amount of PPP Loan forgiveness shall be calculated in accordance with the requirements of the Paycheck Protection Program, including the provisions of Section 1106 of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act), although no more than 25% of the amount forgiven can be attributable to non-payroll costs. The Company applied for and received loan forgiveness in 2021.

Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of Freeze Tag, Inc. (“Freeze Tag” or the “Company”) for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 contains forward-looking statements, principally in this Section and “Business.” Generally, you can identify these statements because they use words like “anticipates,” “believes,” “expects,” “future,” “intends,” “plans,” and similar terms. These statements reflect only our current expectations. Although we do not make forward-looking statements unless we believe we have a reasonable basis for doing so, we cannot guarantee their accuracy and actual results may differ materially from those we anticipated due to a number of uncertainties, many of which are unforeseen, including, among others, the risks we face as described in this filing. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this annual report. To the extent that such statements are not recitations of historical fact, such statements constitute forward-looking statements that, by definition, involve risks and uncertainties. In any forward-looking statement where we express an expectation or belief as to future results or events, such expectation or belief is expressed in good faith and believed to have a reasonable basis, but there can be no assurance that the statement of expectation of belief will be accomplished.

 

We believe it is important to communicate our expectations to our investors. There may be events in the future; however, that we are unable to predict accurately or over which we have no control. The risk factors listed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, as well as any cautionary language in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our last Annual Report on Form 10-K, provide examples of risks, uncertainties and events that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the expectations we describe in our forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated include but are not limited to: distributors not accepting our games; price reductions; unforeseen delays in game production; changes in product strategies; general economic, financial and business conditions; changes in and compliance with governmental regulations; changes in various tax laws; and the availability of key management and other personnel. As noted in our risk factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for year ended December 31, 2022, we are also closely monitoring the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and its effects on our business, as well as its effects on general market and economic conditions.

Based on a free-to-play business model that has propelled games built and marketed by some of our competitors to worldwide success, we employ state-of-the-art data analytics and proprietary technology to dynamically optimize the gaming experience for revenue generation. Players can download and enjoy our games for free, and, if they so choose, they can purchase virtual items and additional features within the game to increase the fun factor.

 

In October 2017, Rob Vardeman, former President of Munzee Inc. joined gaming industry veterans, Craig Holland and Mick Donahoo, to form a stronger and well-rounded Freeze Tag team through a merger. In addition to successful games Freeze Tag has launched previously, the current portfolio of games includes hits such as Munzee, a real-world gaming adventure and social platform with over 8 million locations worldwide and hundreds of thousands of players, WallaBee, an addictive collecting game with over 2,000 beautifully drawn digital cards, and Eventzee, an app that allows individuals, businesses, and other community organizations to build custom scavenger hunts.

 

 We also offer our technology and services to businesses that want to leverage our expertise in location-based mobile gaming in their marketing and branding programs. For example, our Eventzee solution allows businesses to create private scavenger hunts in physical places such as malls, tradeshows, company events or campuses to create immersive brand experiences.

We are closely monitoring the coronavirus pandemic and the directives from federal and local authorities regarding not only our workforce, but how it impacts both the companies we work with for the development of our games and apps, and our users. We believe these social distancing and “stay-at-home” regulations may negatively impact our users and their ability to play our geolocation games for the foreseeable future. The extent and duration of this impact is difficult to predict at this time.

 

Central to Freeze Tag’s core strategy is capitalizing on fast-growing trends in the mobile applications world, including geofencing and location-based advertising. We plan to leverage the combined company’s proprietary technology and expertise to create more exciting location-based experiences in our games and apps. Throughout 2023, we plan to continue to explore opportunities to incorporate geofencing into our applications, and then, when the time is right, we will examine opportunities to introduce advertising opportunities to Freeze Tag clients and customers.

 

Going Concern Uncertainty

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes continuity of operations and realization of assets and liabilities in the ordinary course of business. As shown in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company recognized a net loss of $71,207 and used net cash of $236,733 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had a working capital deficit of $505,952 and a total stockholders’ deficit of $107,919. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Management believes that by continuing to implement cost reductions, and by increasing revenue from updated product lines, operating cash flows will be sufficient to support the Company’s business plan. However, management is currently evaluating alternative financing sources to fund the Company’s current business plan should cash provided by operations be insufficient.

 

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon successfully executing its plans to attain a successful level of operations. The Company’s financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if it were unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs, expenses and related disclosures. These estimates and assumptions are often based on historical experience and judgments that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances at the time made. However, all such estimates and assumptions are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and actual results may differ. For further information on our significant accounting policies, see Note 2 to our financial statements included in this filing.

 

The following is a summary of our critical accounting policies that involve estimates and management’s judgment.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company’s revenues are derived primarily by licensing software products in the form of mobile games for smartphone and tablet platforms. Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

 

 
16

Table of Contents

 

We determine revenue recognition through the following steps:

 

 

·

identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;

 

·

identification of the performance obligations in the contract;

 

·

determination of the transaction price;

 

·

allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

 

·

recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.

 

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets consist primarily of intellectual property, customer base and non-compete agreements acquired in 2017, which are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of 5 years. Intangible assets are reviewed for impairment annually, or more frequently whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable.

 

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718-10, Compensation-Stock Compensation and ASC Subtopic 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the requisite services period is based on the value of share-based payment awards after reduction for estimated forfeitures. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and are revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.

 

Software Development Costs

 

Software development costs include direct costs incurred for internally developed products and payments made to independent software developers and/or contract engineers and artists. The Company accounts for software development costs in accordance with the FASB guidance for the costs of computer software to be sold, leased, or otherwise marketed as found in ASC Subtopic 985-20. On a case-by-case basis, certain software development costs are capitalized once the technological feasibility of a product is established, and such costs are determined to be recoverable. Technological feasibility of a product encompasses both technical design documentation and game design documentation, or the completed and tested product design and working model. Software development costs are capitalized once technological feasibility of a product is established and such costs are determined to be recoverable against future revenues. For products where proven game engine technology exists, this may occur early in the development cycle.

 

Significant management judgments and estimates are utilized in the assessment of when technological feasibility is established. For most products, technological feasibility is established when a detailed game design document containing sufficient technical specifications written for a proven game engine or framework technology had been created and approved by management. However, technological feasibility is evaluated on a product-by-product basis. Amounts related to software development that are not capitalized are charged immediately to the appropriate expense account. Amounts that were considered ‘research and development’ that are not capitalized are immediately charged to general and administrative expense.

 

Prior to a product’s release, the Company expenses, as part of “Cost of Sales—Product Development,” capitalized costs when the Company believes such amounts are not recoverable. Capitalized costs for those products that are cancelled or abandoned are charged to product development expense in the period of cancellation. Commencing upon product release, capitalized software development costs are amortized to “Cost of Sales—Product Development” based on the straight-line method.

 

 The Company evaluates the future recoverability of capitalized software development costs and intellectual property licenses on an annual basis. For products that have been released in prior years, the primary evaluation criterion is actual title performance. For products that are scheduled to be released in future years, recoverability is evaluated based on the expected performance of the specific products to which the costs relate or in which the licensed trademark or copyright is to be used. Criteria used to evaluate expected product performance include: historical performance of comparable products developed with comparable technology; orders for the product prior to its release; and, for any sequel product, estimated performance based on the performance of the product on which the sequel was based.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Although there were new accounting pronouncements issued or proposed by the FASB during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and through the date of filing of this report, we do not believe any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

 

Results of Operations

 

Revenues

 

Our revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2023 of $533,229 were down $23,218 from revenues of $556,447 for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 of $1,624,143 were up $59,041 from revenues of $1,565,102 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.  The primary reason for the increase in revenues year over year was due to an increase in sales of our Munzee and Eventzee product lines.  The decrease in revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily due to some unforeseen bugs that we encountered when we launched our updated backend software for Munzee.  Please see this blog post for more details on the software update and some of the issues that we encountered (and have since fixed): https://munzeeblog.com/letter-to-the-players/ . We believe that the long-term benefits of our new back-end software update outweigh the short-term challenges we have faced. We are confident that we are and will be able to continue to regain customer confidence and grow our business in the coming quarters, and we expect to see increased demand going forward.

 

Cost of Sales

 

Cost of sales increased $1,060 to $100,872 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 from $99,812 for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Cost of sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 of $294,233 were up $20,005 from cost of sales of $274,228 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was a mainly a result of increased server and supporting software product costs offset by a decrease in physical product costs (inventory of physical products).

 

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $60,103 to $469,817 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 from $409,714 for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 of $1,366,810 were up $92,026 from $1,274,784 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase is primarily due to an increase in accounting, salary, external software developers, insurance, and travel expenses, offset by a decrease in rent, and slight decrease in marketing, general office, and postage expenses.

 

Other Income (Expense)

 

Total other income (expense) for the three months ended September 30, 2023 of ($11,108) was $695 lower than other income (expense) of ($11,803) for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Total other income (expense) for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 of ($34,307) was down $175,185 from $140,878 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The change is primarily driven by the forgiveness of accrued interest related to our second Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan which was forgiven in 2022. Interest expense and other income (expense) remained relatively stable.

 

Net Income

 

As a result of the above, we reported net income (loss) of ($48,568) and ($71,207) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to net income of $35,118 and $156,968 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources Introduction

 

As of September 30, 2023, we had current assets of $547,699, including cash of $504,430, and current liabilities of $1,053,651, resulting in a working capital deficit of $505,952. In addition, we had a total stockholders’ deficit of $107,919 at September 30, 2023.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we used net cash of $236,733. Management believes that by continuing to implement cost reductions, and by increasing revenue from updated product lines, operating cash flows will be sufficient to support our business plan. However, management is currently evaluating alternative financing sources to fund our current business plan should cash provided by operations be insufficient. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in these efforts.

 

Sources and Uses of Cash

 

We used net cash of $46,928 from operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. A net loss of $71,207 and increases in accounts receivable and prepaids of $12,932 and decreases in accounts payable of $9,904 were partially offset by $43,073 of non-cash expenses and increases in accrued liabilities of $4,042.

By comparison, we provided net cash of $110,375 from operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Net income of $156,968, non-cash expenses of $103,981, and increases of our accounts payable of $21,230 and accrued expenses of $8,520 were partially offset by loan forgiveness of $176,441, increases in accounts receivable of $2,263 and increases in other, net of $1,530.

 

              We used $182,133 and $112,165 for capitalized software development costs during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022; respectively.

 

Financing activities used $7,672 and $7,459 for auto loan payments for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

Notes Payable – Related Party

 

As of September 30, 2023, our related party debt was comprised of notes payable totaling $379,825 to Craig Holland, our Chief Executive Officer, and Mick Donahoo, our Chief Financial Officer. These notes are non-interest bearing and mature on December 31, 2023. Of this related party indebtedness, there are two convertible notes payable of $186,450 to each of Messrs. Holland and Donahoo, who have the right, at any time, at their election, to convert all or part of the amount due into shares of fully paid and non-assessable shares of our common stock. The fixed conversion price is $0.02 per share. We have imputed interest on these notes payable using an annual rate of 10%.
