Item 1A. Risk Factors

Investment in our common stock involves significant risk. You should carefully consider the information described in the following riskfactors*, together with the other information appearing elsewhere in this report, before making an investment decision regarding our common stock. If any of the events or circumstances described in these risks actually occur, our business, financial conditions, results of operations, and future growth prospects would likely be materially and adversely affected. In these circumstances, the market price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or a part of your investment in our common stock.*

Risks Related to Ukrainian Crises

Russia’s recent military intervention in Ukraine and the international community’s response have created substantial political and economic disruption, uncertainty, and risk.

Russia’s military intervention in Ukraine in 2022, Ukraine’s widespread resistance, and the NATO led and United States coordinated economic, financial, communications, and other sanctions imposed by other countries have created significant political and economic world uncertainty. There is significant risk of expanded military confrontation between Russia and other countries, possibly including the United States. Current and likely additional

Page10 international sanctions against Russia may contribute to higher costs, particularly for petroleum-based products. These and related actions, responses, and consequences that cannot now be predicted or controlled may contribute to world-wide economic reversals. In these circumstances, receipt of supplies and products may be interrupted or may be delayed or otherwise negatively impact our operations.

Risks Related to Middle East Crises

The Israel-Gaza war has created substantial uncertainty and risk.

In 2024, Hamas launched assaults against Israeli citizens. Israel has responded aggressively with operations inside Gaza against Hamas. The foregoing events have cause substantial regional instability and world-wide political and economic uncertainty. There is significant risk of expanded military confrontation in the region and beyond, possibly including the United States. These and related actions, responses, and consequences cannot be predicted or controlled and may contribute to world-wide economic reversals. In these circumstances, receipt of supplies and products may be interrupted or may be delayed or otherwise negatively impact our operations.

Risks Related to our Business

An overall economic downturn could negatively impact our earnings.

Any weakening of economic activity in our markets could result in a loss of customers, which could adversely affect our revenues or restrict our future growth. It may become more difficult for customers to pay their bills, leading to slow collections and higher-than-normal levels of accounts receivable. This could increase our financing requirements and bad debt expense. The foregoing could negatively affect earnings and liquidity, reducing our ability to grow the business.

The price of oil, which also affects the price of diesel and gasoline, can have a significant impact on the Company’s business. As the price differential between diesel and natural gas decreases the payback period for the cost of the engine conversion is extended. This makes engine conversions less desirable, which can result in lower sales of the Company’s engine conversion technology.

Unforeseeable circumstances could delay or disrupt our operations andnegatively impact our operating results and financial condition.

Fire, riot, strikes, labor disputes, freight embargoes or transportation delays, acts of God or of the public enemy, war, acts or threats of terrorism, or civil disturbances, extreme weather conditions or natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes, hurricanes and tsunamis, and their related consequences and effects, including energy shortages and public health issues, any existing or future laws, rules, regulations or acts of any government (including any orders, rules or regulations issued by any official or agency or such government), or any cause beyond the Company’s reasonable control (each a “Force Majeure Event”), affecting our business, could delay or disrupt our operations, and the operations of our vendors, other suppliers and their operations or result in economic instability that may negatively impact our operating results and financial condition.

Increases in the wholesale price of natural gas could reduce our earnings.

A supply and demand imbalance in natural gas markets could cause an increase in the price of natural gas. A significant increase in the price of natural gas may discourage the conversion from diesel to natural gas.

Climate change, carbon neutral or energy efficiency legislation or regulations could restrict our market opportunities, negatively affecting our growth, cash flows and earnings.

The federal and/or state governments may enact legislation or regulations that attempt to control or limit the causes of climate change, including greenhouse gas emissions such as carbon dioxide and emissions of methane. Such laws or regulations could impose additional costs or operational requirements. They could also provide a cost advantage to alternative energy sources. The focus on climate change could negatively impact the reputation of fossil fuel products or services. The occurrence of these events could put upward pressure on the cost of natural gas relative to other energy sources, reduce the demand for natural gas, negatively affecting our growth opportunities, cash flows and earnings.

Page11

The 200-nation “Paris Agreement on Climate Change” signed into law in 2016 signals a strong call to action with more than 175 countries committing to large emission reductions over the next 15 years. This may help to accelerate demand for Omnitek’s technology as countries around the world begin to enact air pollution control measures, in some cases banning diesel trucks and buses in large cities.

We are subject to physical and financial risks associated with climate change.

Climate change can create physical and financial risk. Climate change may impact a region’s economic health, which could impact our revenues. Our financial performance is tied to the health of the regional economies we serve. The price of energy has an impact on the economic health of our communities. The cost of additional regulatory requirements, such as regulation of CO 2 emissions under section 111(d) of the CAA, or additional environmental regulation could impact the prices charged by natural gas suppliers.

A downturn in the trucking industry could materially adversely impact our results of operations.

If the trucking industry or any truck OEM customers worldwide suffer a significant downturn such circumstance could lead to significant reductions in our revenues and earnings and could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations.

Unpredictability in the adoption, implementation and enforcement of increasingly stringent emission standards by multiple jurisdictions around the world could adversely affect our business.

Our components and engines may be subject to extensive statutory and regulatory requirements governing emission and noise, including standards imposed by the EPA, the European Union, state regulatory agencies, such as CARB, and other regulatory agencies around the world. We have made, and may be required to continue to make, significant capital and research expenditures to comply with these regulations. Developing engines and components to meet numerous changing government regulatory requirements, with different implementation timelines and requirements, makes developing components and engines efficiently for multiple markets complicated and could result in substantial additional costs that may be difficult to recover in certain markets. In some cases, we may be required to develop new products to comply with new regulations, particularly those relating to air emissions. While we have met previous deadlines, our ability to comply with other existing and future regulatory standards will be essential for us to maintain our position in the markets we serve. The successful development and introduction of new and enhanced products in order to comply with new regulatory requirements are subject to other risks, such as delays in product development, cost over-runs and unanticipated technical and manufacturing difficulties.

In addition to these risks, the nature and timing of government implementation and enforcement of increasingly stringent emission standards in emerging markets are unpredictable and subject to change. Any delays in implementation or enforcement could result in the products we developed or modified to comply with these standards becoming unnecessary or becoming necessary later than expected thereby, in some cases, negatively affecting our competitive advantage. This in turn can delay, diminish or eliminate the expected return on capital and research expenditures that we have invested in such products and may adversely affect our perceived competitive advantage in being an early, advanced developer of compliant engines.

We are exposed to risks arising from the price and availability of energy.

The level of demand for our products and services is influenced in multiple ways by the price and availability of energy. High diesel costs generally drive greater demand for natural gas and LPG engines in the countries in which we operate. If diesel costs decrease or increase less than expected, demand for our products may likewise decrease. The relative unavailability of electricity in some emerging market countries also influences demand for our products for electric generators. If these countries add energy capacity by expanding their power grids at a rate equal to or faster than the growth in demand for energy, the demand for our genset products could also decrease or increase less than would otherwise be the case.

Page12

The market for alternative fuel engines may not continue to develop according to our expectations and, as a result, our business may not grow as planned and our business plan may be adversely affected.

Our future growth is dependent upon the market for efficient alternative fuel engines and engine conversion kits expanding as a result of our customers and potential customers substituting diesel engines with alternative fuel engines. Part of our business plan is dependent on our market forecasts with respect to this expected substitution trend. However, there can be no assurance that we can accurately predict this trend. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that our products would capture any portion of the potential market increase. If the markets which represent a significant portion of our business or in which we anticipate significant growth opportunities for our products fail to develop or develops more slowly than we anticipate, the growth of our business and our business plan could be materially adversely affected.

Introduction of electric vehicles may also reduce the size of our market.

We may have difficulty managing the expansion of our operations.

In order to effectively manage our operations and growth, including growth in the sales of, and services related to, our power systems, we may need to:

·scale our internal infrastructure, including establishing additional facilities, while continuing to provide technologically sophisticated power systems on a timely basis;

·attract and retain sufficient numbers of talented personnel, including application engineers, customer support staff and production personnel;

·continue to enhance our compliance and quality assurance systems; and

·continue to improve our operational, financial and management controls and reporting systems and procedures.

Rapid expansion of our operations could place a strain on our senior management team, support teams, manufacturing lines, information technology platforms and other resources. In addition, we may be required to place more reliance on our strategic partners and suppliers, some of whom may not be capable of meeting our production demands in terms of timing, quantity, quality or cost. Difficulties in effectively managing the budgeting, forecasting and other process control issues presented by any rapid expansion could harm our business, prospects, results of operations or financial condition.

New products, including new engines we develop, may not achieve widespread adoption.

Our growth may depend on our ability to develop and/or acquire new products, and/or refine our existing products and technology. We will seek to develop or acquire new products, or enhance our existing products and power system technology, if we believe they will provide significant additional revenues and favorable profit margins. However, we cannot know beforehand whether any new or enhanced products will successfully penetrate our target markets. There can be no assurance that newly developed or acquired products will perform as well as we expect, or that such products will gain widespread adoption among our customers.

Additionally, there are greater design and operational risks associated with new products. The inability of our suppliers to produce technologically sophisticated components for our new engines and power systems, the discovery of any product or process defects or failures associated with production of any new products and any related product returns could each have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. If new products for which we expend significant resources to develop or acquire are not successful, our business could be adversely affected.

We maintain a significant investment in inventory, and a decline in our customers’ purchases could lead to a decline in our sales and profitability and cause us to accumulate excess inventory.

We cannot always predict the timing, frequency, or size of the future orders of our customers. Our ability to accurately forecast our sales is further complicated by the continuing global economic uncertainty. We maintain

Page13 significant inventories in an effort to ensure that our customers have a reliable source of supply. If we fail to anticipate the changing needs of our customers and accurately forecast our customer demands, our customers may not continue to place orders with us, and we may accumulate significant inventories of products that we will be unable to sell or return to our suppliers. This may result in a significant decline in the value of our inventory and a decrease in our future gross profit.

Our financial position, results of operations and cash flows have been, and may in the future be, negatively impacted by challenging global economic conditions.

Challenging global economic conditions have had, and may in the future have, a material adverse effect on our business. Difficult market conditions can also cause us to experience pricing pressure, negatively impacting our margins. Economic downturns may materially impact our customers, as well as suppliers and other parties with which we do business. Economic conditions that adversely affect our customers may cause them to terminate existing supply agreements or to reduce the volume of products they purchase from us in the future. We may have significant receivables collections from customers that face liquidity issues. Failure to collect a significant portion of amounts due on those receivables could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. Similarly, with adverse market conditions, our key suppliers from which we source components may be unable to provide components to us or extend us credit. Furthermore, we may not be able to successfully anticipate, plan for and respond to changing economic conditions, and our business could be negatively affected.

We could suffer warranty claims or be subject to product liability claims, both of which could materially and adversely affect our business.

From time to time, we may incur liabilities for warranty claims as a result of defective products or components, including claims arising from defective products or components provided by our suppliers that are integrated into our conversion kits. The provisions we make for warranty accrual may not be sufficient or we may be unable to rely on a warranty provided by a third-party manufacturer, and we may recognize additional expenses as a result of warranty claims in excess of our current expectations. Such warranty claims may necessitate a redesign, re-specification, a change in manufacturing processes, and/or recall of our product, which could have an adverse impact on our finances and on existing or future sales of our products. Even in the absence of any warranty claims, a product deficiency such as a manufacturing defect or a safety issue may necessitate a product recall, which could have an adverse impact on our finances and on existing or future sales.

Our business exposes us to potential product liability claims that are inherent to our industry. Any accidents involving our products could materially impede widespread market acceptance and demand for our products. In addition, we may be subject to a claim by end-users of our products or others alleging that they have suffered property damage, personal injury or death because our products did not perform adequately. Such a claim could be made whether or not our products perform adequately under the circumstances. From time to time, we may be subject to product liability claims in the ordinary course of business, and we carry a limited amount of product liability insurance for this purpose. However, our current insurance policies may not provide sufficient or any coverage for such claims, and we cannot predict whether we will be able to maintain our insurance coverage on commercially acceptable terms.

If we do not properly manage the sales of our products into foreign markets, our business could suffer.

We have sales and distribution activities in counties where we may lack sufficient expertise, knowledge of local customs or contacts. There can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain our current relationship with these foreign customers, or that we will be able to develop effective, similar relationships in foreign markets into which we supply our products in the future.

Growing the market for our products in markets outside of the United States may take longer and cost more to develop than we anticipate and is subject to inherent risks, including unexpected changes in government policies, trade barriers restricting our ability to sell our products in those countries, longer payment cycles, exposure to currency fluctuations, and foreign exchange controls that restrict or prohibit repatriation of funds. As a result, if we do not properly manage foreign sales, our business could suffer.

In addition, our foreign sales subject us to numerous stringent U.S. and foreign laws, including the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”), and comparable foreign laws and regulations which prohibit improper payments or offers

Page14 of payments to foreign governments and their officials and political parties by U.S. and other business entities for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. Safeguards that we may implement to discourage these practices could prove to be ineffective, and violations of the FCPA and other laws may result in severe criminal or civil sanctions, or other liabilities or proceedings against us, including class action lawsuits and enforcement actions from the SEC, The Department of Justice and overseas regulators. Any of these factors, or any other international factors, could impair our ability to effectively sell our power systems, or other products or services that we may develop, outside of the U.S.

The price of our stock may be volatile and may decline in value.

The trading price of our common stock may be highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to various factors, some of which are beyond our control. The stock market in general has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of companies with securities traded in those markets. Broad market and industry factors may seriously affect the market price of companies’ stock, including ours, regardless of actual operating performance. In addition, in the past, following periods of volatility in the overall market and the market price of a particular company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been instituted against these companies. This litigation, if instituted against us, could result in substantial costs and a diversion of our management’s attention and resources.

Business, political and economic factors may affect our operations

If the World economic conditions deteriorate or do not improve, our target consumer base may be disproportionately affected. Stagnant economic growth is likely to negatively affect our customers' ability to purchase our goods. The resulting impact of such economic conditions on our customers and on consumer spending could have a material adverse effect on demand for our products, financial condition, and operating results.

Our performance is influenced by a variety of economic, social, and political factors. Economic uncertainty, unfavorable employment levels, declines in consumer confidence, increases in consumer debt levels, increased commodity prices, and other economic factors may affect our customer spending decisions and adversely affect the demand for our products. Economic conditions also affect governmental political and budgetary policies. As a result, economic conditions can have an effect on the sale of our products to our customers.

A global economic crisis could result in decreases in customer spending

We operate in competitive and evolving markets locally, nationally and globally. These markets are subject to rapid technological change and changes in demand. In seeking market acceptance, we will encounter competition from many sources, including other well-established larger technology providers. Many of these competitors have substantially greater financial, marketing and other resources. Our revenue could be materially adversely affected if we are unable to compete successfully with these other providers.

Uncertainty relating to the ability to enforce rights under certain dealer agreements

Many of the dealer agreements are with foreign entities and are governed by the laws of foreign jurisdictions. If a dealer breaches a dealer agreement, we may incur the additional costs of determining our rights and obligations under the agreement, under applicable foreign laws, and enforcing the agreement in a foreign jurisdiction. We may not be able to enforce such rights or may determine that it would be too costly to enforce such rights. In addition, some of the dealer agreements contain arbitration provisions that govern disputes under the agreements and there is uncertainty with respect to the enforceability of such arbitration provisions under the laws of related foreign jurisdictions. If a dispute were to arise under a dealer agreement and the related arbitration provision was not effective, we would be exposed to the additional costs of settling the dispute through traditional legal avenues rather than through an arbitration process.

The Company is subject to foreign business, political and economic disruption risks

Omnitek is engaged with various entities from around the world. As a result, we are exposed to foreign business, political and economic risks, which could adversely affect our financial position and results of operations, including:

Page15

·difficulties in managing dealer relationships from outside of a dealer’s jurisdiction;

·political and economic instability;

·less developed infrastructures in newly industrializing countries;

·susceptibility to business interruption in foreign areas due to war, terrorist attacks, medical epidemics, changes in political regimes, and general interest rate and currency instability;

·exposure to possible litigation or claims in foreign jurisdictions; and,

·competition from foreign-based providers and the existence of protectionist laws and business practices that favor such providers.

The Company may be subject to intellectual property rights claims

Companies in our industry often own large numbers of patents, copyrights, trademarks and trade secrets and frequently enter into litigation based on allegations of infringement or other violations of intellectual property rights. As competition in the industry increases, the possibility of intellectual property rights claims against Omnitek may grow. Omnitek’s technologies may not be able to withstand third-party claims or rights against their use. Intellectual property claims, whether having merit or otherwise, could be time consuming and expensive to litigate or settle and could divert management resources and attention. In addition, many of Omnitek’s agreements require that Omnitek indemnify for third-party intellectual property infringement claims, which could increase Omnitek’s costs as a result of defending such claims and may require that Omnitek pay the damages if there were an adverse ruling in any such claims. If litigation is successfully brought by a third party against Omnitek in respect of intellectual property, Omnitek may be required to cease distributing or marketing certain products or obtain licenses from the holders of the intellectual property at material cost, redesign affected products in such a way as to avoid infringing intellectual property rights, any or all of which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. If those intellectual property rights are held by a competitor, Omnitek may be unable to obtain the intellectual property at any price, which could also adversely affect our competitive position. An adverse determination could also prevent Omnitek from offering its products. Any of these results could harm our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Operational stage of the Company and its products

Omnitek has generated limited revenue from operations and may not generate any significant or sufficient revenue from its current operations to continue future operations. To achieve profitable operations, Omnitek, alone or with others, must successfully initiate and maintain sales and distribution of our products. The time frame necessary to achieve market success for any individual product is uncertain. There can be no assurance that Omnitek’s efforts will be successful, that any of our products will prove to meet the anticipated levels of approval or effectiveness, or that we will be able to obtain and retain customers. Omnitek’s results can also be affected by the ability of competition to introduce new products that have advantageous technology or the competition's ability to adjust its pricing to reduce our competitive advantage. Results will also be affected by strategic decisions made by the management regarding product volume, mix, and timing of orders received during operations.

Uncertainty of future sales

There can be no assurance that our products will meet the effectiveness required to be competitive in the marketplace and that our products achieve customer acceptance.

Future capital requirements; uncertainty of future funding

Substantial expenditures will be required to enable Omnitek to conduct product research, manufacturing, marketing and distribution of its products. Omnitek may need to raise additional capital to facilitate growth and support its long-term business plan. Omnitek has no established bank-financing arrangements and it is not anticipated that we will secure any bank financing in the near future. Therefore, it is likely that Omnitek may need to seek additional financing through subsequent future public or private sales of its securities, including equity securities. Omnitek may also seek funding for the manufacturing and marketing of its products through strategic partnerships and other arrangements with corporate partners. There can be no assurance, however, that such collaborative arrangements or additional funds will be available when needed, or on terms acceptable. Any such additional financing may result in significant dilution to existing stockholders. If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to curtail one or

Page16 more of our programs. Omnitek’s future cash requirements will be affected by the revenue generated from the sale of its products, the costs of production and marketing, as well as relationships with corporate partners, changes in the focus and direction of Omnitek’s programs, competitive and technological advances, and other factors.

Dependence on others; manufacturing capabilities and limited distribution capabilities

An important element of Omnitek’s strategy for the marketing and release of its products is to enter into various arrangements with distribution and retail partners. The success and commercialization of Omnitek’s products will be dependent, in part, upon Omnitek’s ability to enter into such arrangements and upon the ability of these third parties to perform their responsibilities. Although we believe that parties to any such arrangements would have an economic motivation to succeed in performing their contractual responsibilities, the amount and timing of resources to be devoted to these activities may not be within our control. There can be no assurance that any such arrangements will be available on terms acceptable to Omnitek, if any at all, and that such parties will perform their obligations as expected, or that any revenue will be derived from such arrangements. If Omnitek is not able to enter into such arrangements, it could encounter delays in introducing its products into the market.

Omnitek assembles certain products in-house after receiving components from outside vendors. Other products such as engines or components for future products may be produced or manufactured by outside companies for Omnitek. Therefore, Omnitek may be dependent on contract manufacturers for the production and manufacturing of certain products or components for products. In the event that we are unable to obtain or retain the necessary manufacturers for components or products on acceptable terms, we may not be able to continue to commercialize and market our products as planned. The manufacture of Omnitek’s products will be subject to current good manufacturing practices (“GMP”) requirements prescribed by Omnitek in order to meet the specifications and other standards prescribed by Omnitek to satisfy the anticipated and appropriate levels of operations and effectiveness when in use. There can be no assurance that we will be able to (i) obtain adequate supplies of products in a timely fashion at acceptable quality and prices, (ii) enter into arrangements for the manufacture of products with manufacturers whose facilities and procedures comply with Omnitek’s GMP or other regulatory requirements, should any such regulatory requirements arise, (iii) or that manufacturers will continue to comply with such standards, or (iv) that such manufacturers will be able to adequately meet Omnitek product needs. Omnitek’s dependence upon others for the manufacture of its proposed products may adversely affect our ability to develop and deliver products on a timely and competitive basis.

In addition, Omnitek does not now have, nor does it have current plans to acquire or obtain, the facilities, or personnel necessary to conduct its own full-scale distribution of its products. Consequently, Omnitek will have to rely on existing commercial distribution channels for the sale of its products. There can be no assurance that Omnitek will be able to secure sufficient distribution of any of its products on acceptable terms.

Concentration of Risks

Customers - Approximately eight customers accounted for 94% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025, and loss of any of these customers could adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition, and profitability.

These customers are free to purchase from other suppliers who may have more established distribution channels and other competitive advantages, such as price. In addition, our customers’ need for our products depends on many factors including worldwide and regional fuel prices, and various governmental regulations. If any of the latter factors change significantly, our customers’ demand for our products might decline substantially.

The loss of any of these customers could have a materially adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. At the minimum, it would have a materially adverse effect on our operations during the short term until we are able to generate replacement customers.

Suppliers - Approximately four suppliers accounted for 93% of products purchased for the year ended December 31, 2025. Dependence on a limited number of qualified suppliers of components and equipment could lead to delays, lost revenue or increased costs.

Page17

Our future operating results may depend substantially on our suppliers’ ability to supply us with components in sufficient volumes to meet our production requirements. Certain components that we use are available from only a single or limited number of qualified suppliers. If there is a significant simultaneous upswing in demand for such a component from several high-volume industries resulting in a supply reduction, if a component is otherwise in short supply, or if a supplier has a quality issue with a component, we may experience delays or increased costs in obtaining that component. If we are unable to obtain sufficient quantities used in the components, or other necessary components, we may experience production delays which could cause us loss of revenue. If a component becomes unavailable, we could suffer significant loss of revenue. Each of the following could also significantly harm our operating results:

·an unwillingness of a supplier to supply such components to us;

·consolidation of key suppliers;

·failure of a key supplier to provide enough components;

·a key supplier’s, or sub-supplier’s, inability to access credit necessary to operate its business; or

·failure of a key supplier to remain in business.

Risk of technological obsolescence and competition

Omnitek operates in an ever-evolving field. Developments are expected to continue at a rapid pace in the industry in general. Competition from other large companies, research and academic institutions and others is intense and expected to increase. Many of these companies and institutions have substantially greater resources than Omnitek and may have substantially greater experience in manufacturing and marketing of products. These entities represent significant long-term competition for Omnitek. There can be no assurance that developments by others will not render our technologies and products obsolete or noncompetitive. In addition, Omnitek’s competitors might succeed in developing or purchasing technologies and products that render the Company's technology and products obsolete or noncompetitive. See “Business – Competition.”

Changes of prices for products

While the prices of our products are projected to be in line with those from market competitors, there can be no assurance that they will not decrease in the future. Competition may cause us to lower prices in the future. Moreover, it is difficult to raise prices even if internal costs increase.

Creditworthiness of distributors is an ongoing concern

Omnitek may not always be able to collect all of the funds owed to it by its distributors. Some distributors may experience financial difficulties which may adversely impact our collection of accounts receivable. We regularly review the collectability and creditworthiness of our distributors to determine an appropriate allowance for credit to such distributors. If our uncollectible accounts exceed the amount for which we have planned, this would adversely impact our operating results. Omnitek tries to minimize this concern by selling most of its products by way of prepaid purchase orders.

Trading and limited market

At the present time, Omnitek common stock is traded on the OTCQB under the symbol OMTK. There is currently a limited public market for the Common Stock and there can be no assurance that an active trading market will develop or, if one does develop, that it will be maintained. However, should such a market arise, the possibility or actual sale into the market of shares, as permitted under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, may adversely affect prevailing market prices, if any, for Omnitek’s Common Stock and could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of its equity securities. In order to qualify for unrestricted resale of Common Stock under Rule 144, certain holding periods must be met and a legal opinion setting forth the exemption from registration must be provided. Further, there is no assurance that Rule 144 will be applicable to Omnitek and investors may not be able to rely on its provisions now or in the future. In addition, sales of significant amounts of Common Stock by Omnitek could have an adverse effect on the market price.

Page18

No dividends

No cash dividends have been paid. Payment of dividends on the Common Stock is within the discretion of the Board of Directors, is subject to state law, and will depend upon our earnings, if any, its capital requirements, financial condition and other relevant factors.

Possible volatility of stock price

The market price of our securities is likely to be highly volatile. Factors such as the market acceptance of Omnitek’s products, success of distribution channels or its competitors, announcements of technological innovations or new commercial products by us or our competitors, developments in trademark, patent or other proprietary rights of Omnitek or our competitors, and fluctuations in our operating results may have a significant effect on the market price of the Common Stock. In addition, the stock market has experienced and continues to experience extreme price and volume fluctuations which have affected the market price of many companies, and which have often been unrelated to the operating performance of these companies. These broad market fluctuations, as well as general economic and political conditions, may adversely affect the market price, if a market develops, of the Common Stock. See “Description of Capital Stock.”

We are subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which require us to incur audit fees and legal fees in connection with the preparation of such reports. These additional costs could reduce our ability to earn a profit.

We are required to file periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. In order to comply with these requirements, our independent registered public accounting firm has to review our financial statements on a quarterly basis and audit our financial statements on an annual basis. Moreover, our legal counsel will have to review and assist in the preparation of such reports. The costs charged by these professionals for such services cannot be accurately predicted at this time because factors such as the number and type of transactions that we engage in and the complexity of our reports cannot be determined at this time and will have a major effect on the amount of time to be spent by our auditors and attorneys. However, the incurrence of such costs will obviously be an expense to our operations and thus have a negative effect on our ability to meet our overhead requirements and earn a profit. We may be exposed to potential risks resulting from requirements under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. 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.

Pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended by SEC Release 33-8889 we are required to include in our annual report our assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the end of the year. If we fail to achieve and maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, as such standards are modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, 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 help 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.

Penny stock regulations

If Omnitek’s stock is below $5.00 per share, or we do not have $2,000,000 in net tangible assets, or are not listed on an exchange or on the NASDAQ National Market System, among other conditions, our shares may be subject to a rule promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) that imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and institutional accredited investors. For transactions covered by the rule, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written consent to the transaction prior to the sale. Furthermore, if the price of Omnitek’s stock is below $5.00, and does not meet the conditions set forth above, sales of our stock in the secondary market will be subject to certain additional new rules promulgated by the SEC. These rules generally require, among other things, that brokers engaged in secondary trading of stock provide customers

Page19 with written disclosure documents, monthly statements of the market value of penny stocks, disclosure of the bid and asked prices, and disclosure of the compensation to the broker-dealer and disclosure of the salesperson working for the broker-dealer. These rules and regulations may affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell Omnitek's securities, thereby limiting the liquidity of the securities. They may also affect the ability of shareholders to resell their securities in the secondary market.

Dependence upon key personnel

Our success in developing marketable products and achieving a competitive position will depend, in part, on its ability to retain qualified engineers, management and marketing personnel and in particular, to retain the services of Mr. Werner Funk, upon whom we are reliant on for the development of products for the Company.

In the event of the death, incapacity or departure of Mr. Funk from Omnitek, it is unlikely that we would be able to continue conducting our business plan in a timely manner. Even if we are able to find additional personnel to replace Mr. Funk, it is uncertain whether we could find someone who could develop our business along the lines described in this report.

Omnitek has an Employment Agreement in place with Mr. Funk that provides for continued service in his current capacities through May 3, 2027 and thereafter on a year-to-year basis. See “Narrative Disclosure to Summary Compensation Table” for details of Employment Agreements.
