Cardiff Lexington Corp

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2024 AND 2023

Organization and Nature of Operations

Cardiff Lexington Corporation (“Cardiff”) was originally incorporated on September 3, 1986 in Colorado as Cardiff International Inc. On November 10, 2005, Cardiff merged with Legacy Card Company, LLC and changed its name to Cardiff Lexington Corporation. On August 27, 2014, Cardiff redomiciled and became a corporation under the laws of Florida. On April 13, 2021, Cardiff redomiciled and became a corporation under the laws of Nevada.

Cardiff is an acquisition holding company focused on locating undervalued and undercapitalized companies, primarily in the healthcare industry, and providing them capitalization and leadership to maximize the value and potential of their private enterprises while also providing diversification and risk mitigation for stockholders. All of Cardiff’s operations are conducted through, and its income derived from, its various subsidiaries, which includes:

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cardiff and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Edge View, Platinum Tax and Nova (collectively, the “Company”). Subsidiaries shown as discontinued operations include Platinum Tax. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Subsidiaries discontinued are shown as discontinued operations.

Reverse Stock Split

On January 9, 2024, the Company effected a 1-for-75,000 reverse split of its outstanding common stock. All outstanding shares of common stock and warrant to purchase common stock were adjusted to reflect the 1-for-75,000 reverse split, with respective exercise prices of the warrants proportionately increased. The conversion prices of the outstanding convertible notes and certain series of preferred stock were adjusted to reflect a proportional decrease in the number of shares of common stock to be issued upon conversion.

All share and per share data throughout these consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split. The total number of authorized shares of common stock did not change. As a result of the reverse stock split, an amount equal to the decreased value of the common stock was reclassified from “common stock” to “additional paid-in capital.”

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Management uses its historical records and knowledge of its business in making estimates. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Accounts Receivable

In the normal course of business, the Company is in the lien based medical industry providing orthopedic healthcare servicing an uninsured market insulated by a letter of protection which insulates the Company and insures payment in full from insurance settlements. A letter of protection is a legally binding contract between the patient (i.e., the Company’s customer), the patient’s law firm and the Company, as a medical provider. It serves as a critical legal agreement between an experienced personal injury attorney and the Company, as a medical provider, allowing an injured victim to receive vital medical treatment needed after an accident without paying exorbitant out-of-pocket medical expenses prior to settlement. For medical professionals, letters of protection provide guaranteed payment out of settlement proceeds for services rendered as the provider does not have to attempt collection from an uninsured or underinsured injured patient. The medical provider knows that payment will come directly from the law firm out of the settlement. This legally binding contract offers crucial protection when someone is hurt due to another party’s negligence but lacks sufficient health insurance or faces denial of claim payments from insurance companies. Medical bills may not be paid for six months to two or more years until case resolution. Providers must be willing to wait for payment. Some complex cases settle in increments over several years instead of one lump payment at the end. A letter of protection enables injured clients to obtain essential care, avoid collections, restore their credit, and focus wholly on recovery. Attorneys utilize letters of protection to construct stronger injury claims, while medical professionals gain guaranteed payment out of settlement proceeds even if treatment is lengthy or ongoing.

In a personal injury case, the at-fault party is responsible for paying the medical bills of the injured person. However, insurance companies will often refuse to pay these medical expenses until liability has been determined. This can leave an injured person unable to get the medical treatment needed, especially if they do not have health insurance. A letter of protection allows an accident victim to receive medical care while the personal injury case is being resolved. An attorney sends a letter of protection to the Company, as a medical provider, on behalf of the client patient. This letter states that the attorney is responsible for paying the client’s medical bills when the case is fully developed and settles. The medical professional agrees to provide treatment to the injured person and refrain from attempting to collect payment as it is developing and until the case is resolved. Once the personal injury case is finalized with the insurance company, the attorney pays the outstanding medical bills from the settlement. The letter of protection is fulfilled. If no settlement is reached with the defendant’s insurance company and the plaintiff (the patient) loses the case at trial, or the case is abandoned, then the Company will not be able to collect on its letter of protection and its receivable will not be collected. In the case of a partial settlement or award at trial, the Company might only be able to collect a portion of its receivable.

The Company has a 99% collection rate based on net settlements recorded to its accounts receivable and revenue. The Company’s accounts receivable balance each reporting period does not include accounts receivables that were factored (sold). Further, accounts receivable and revenue are recorded at what the Company anticipates will ultimately be collected, which historically is 99% of the net recognized upon billing to its patients of gross amounts for services. In the past, for those receivables that were factored, the Company was advanced 46% of the accounts receivable balance and recorded 54% to finance charge. The Company last factored its accounts receivable in the first quarter of fiscal 2023. Collection rates are estimated considering the Company’s 48-month historical collections with primary emphasis to the most current prior 12-month trailing payment and collection percentage rates. The Company acquired Nova in May 2021. Nova was founded in January 2019. As of December 31, 2023, the Company based its 48-month historical collections analysis on a look back period from December 31, 2023 to 48 months, part of which was a period of time Cardiff did not yet own Nova. The method the Company uses to measure expected credit losses is the loss rate method, and in addition the Company qualitatively evaluates on an ongoing basis various factors, which include market conditions in which the Company operates, and the status of claims being settled. The Company has established billing rates, which are not the same as actual amounts recovered. These rates generally do not reflect what is ultimately paid by the customer, insurance carriers, law firms and other payors, which is typically received eighteen to twenty-four months later, and are not reported in the consolidated financial statements at those established billing rates. The Company’s customers, its patients, typically pay amounts based on established charges per procedure with guidance from the annually updated Current Procedural Terminology (“CPT”) guidelines (a code set maintained by the American Medical Association through the CPT Editorial Panel), that designates relative value units and a suggested range of charges for each procedure which is then assigned a CPT code. This fee is discounted to reflect the percentage paid to the Company “using a modifier” recognized by each insurance carrier for services, less deductible, co-pay, and contractual adjustments which are deducted from the calculated fee. The net revenue is recorded at the time the services are rendered. Collection of that revenue typically occurs eighteen to twenty-four months later and after the patient claim develops and settles. Historical collection rates are estimated using the most current prior 12-month historical payment and collection percentages. The Company may incur instances whereby patient claims are not settled. However, these instances are very rare. For example, if a patient dies during the claim’s development period and there is no estate to bequeath, the claim may not be settled. Settlements that are less than what was billed to the patient are covered in the Company’s 99% collectability rate.

The Company adopted ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses.” In accordance with this standard, the Company recognizes an allowance for credit losses for its trade receivables to present the net amount expected to be collected as of the balance sheet date. This allowance is based on the credit losses expected to arise over the life of the asset and are based on current expected credit losses. Accounts receivable is reported on the balance sheet at the net amounts expected to be collected by the Company. Management closely monitors outstanding accounts receivable and recognized an allowance for credit losses in the amount of $165,052 as of June 30, 2024, and $122,190 as of December 31, 2023. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had net accounts receivable of $14,818,277 and $13,305,254, respectively. Accounts receivables are primarily generated from subsidiaries in their normal course of business.

The Company recognizes credit losses when such losses are expected. These credit losses include those amounts the Company determines will not be collectible when billed. Historically, the Company has conducted an annual assessment of its collectability rate of its patients accounts receivables, and then recorded a provision for changes to this collectability rate as a provision. The Company calculates a forward-looking collectability rate which it then applies to its gross billings. The amount recorded in accounts receivables approximates the amount expected to actually be collected. The allowance for credit losses represents any adjustments deemed necessary to the collectability rate based upon an annual review of both actual collections, as well as any changes in industry billing and collection, and/or legal practices.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized $1,242,017 of allowance for credit losses as bad debt expense. The Company recognized $270,000 of allowance for credit losses as bad debt expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. As a result of the Company’s efforts to accelerate cash collections throughout 2024, the Company has experienced lower than normal settlements of its accounts receivable. This may continue as the Company continues to pay down the liability associated with the third-party factoring of accounts receivable from previous years. The Company continues to assess its collections of its accounts receivable through industry analysis and its collectability rate assessment of 99% by applying a 12-month look back to collections from settlements made on claims. Based on the Company’s accounts receivable balances and its revenue, the Company does not believe the bad debt is a material amount.

The following table shows the allowance for credit losses activity:

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are carried at cost. Expenditures for renewals and betterments that extend the useful lives of property, equipment or leasehold improvements are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes based on the following estimated useful lives:

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill and indefinite-lived assets are not amortized but are evaluated for impairment annually or when indicators of a potential impairment are present. The Company’s impairment testing of goodwill is performed separately from its impairment testing of indefinite-lived intangibles. The Company reviews goodwill for impairment on a reporting unit basis annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable. Goodwill is tested first for impairment based on qualitative factors on an annual basis or in between if an event occurs or circumstances change that indicate the fair value may be below its carrying amount, otherwise known as a ‘triggering event’. An assessment is made of these qualitative factors as such to determine whether it is more likely than not the fair value is less than the carry amount, including goodwill. The annual evaluation for impairment of indefinite-lived intangibles and, if then needed after the first step, Goodwill, is based on valuation models that incorporate assumptions and internal projections of expected future cash flows and operating plans. The Company believes such assumptions are also comparable to those that would be used by other marketplace participants. During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company didnot recognize any goodwill impairment. The Company based this decision on impairment testing of the underlying assets, expected cash flows, decreased asset value and other factors.

Valuation of Long-lived Assets

In accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 360-10-5, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, all long-lived assets such as plant and equipment and construction in progress held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is evaluated by a comparison of the carrying amount of assets to estimated cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceed the fair value of the assets.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s primary source of revenue is its healthcare subsidiary, which records revenues from providing licensed and/or certified orthopedic procedures. Revenue is recognized at a point in time in accordance with ASC 606. The Company’s healthcare subsidiary does not have contract liabilities or deferred revenue as there are no amounts prepaid for services. The Company applies the following five-step ASC 606 model to determine revenue recognition:

The Company applies the five-step model when it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer. At contract inception and once the contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, the Company assesses services promised within each contract and determines those that are a performance obligation and assesses whether each promised service is distinct.

The Company’s contracts for both its contract and service fees each contain a single performance obligation (providing orthopedic services), as the promise to transfer the individual services is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contracts and, therefore, not distinct, as a result, the entire transaction price is allocated to this single performance obligation.

Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenues (net) when the patient receives orthopedic care services. The Company’s patient service contracts generally have performance obligations which are satisfied at a point in time. The performance obligation is for onsite or off-site care provided. Patient service contracts are generally fixed-price, and the transaction price is in the contract. Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of the contract with the Company’s patients are satisfied; generally, at the time of patient care.

Established billing rates are not the same as actual amounts recovered for the Company’s healthcare subsidiary. They generally do not reflect what the Company is ultimately paid by the customer, insurance carriers and other payors, and therefore are not reported in the consolidated financial statements at that rate. The Company is typically paid amounts based on established charges per procedure with guidance from the annually updated CPT guidelines that designates relative value units and a suggested range of charges for each procedure which is then assigned a CPT code.

This fee is discounted to reflect the percentage paid to the Company “using a modifier” recognized by each insurance carrier for services, less deductible, co-pay, and contractual adjustments which are deducted from the calculated fee. The net revenue is recorded at the time the services are rendered.

Contract Fees (Non-PIP)

The Company has contract fees for amounts earned from its Non-Personal Injury Protection (“PIP”) related procedures, typically car accidents, and are collected on a contingency basis. Historically, these cases were sold to a factor who bears the risk of economic benefit or loss. After selling patient cases to the factor, any additional funds collected by the Company were remitted to the factor.

Service Fees – Net (PIP)

The Company generates services fees from performing various procedures on the date the services are performed. These services primarily include slip and falls as well as smaller nominal Non-PIP services. Fees are collected primarily from third party insurance providers. These revenues are based on established insurance billing rates, less allowances for contractual adjustments and uncollectible amounts. These contractual adjustments vary by insurance company and self-pay patients. The Company computes these contractual adjustments and collection allowances based on its historical collection experience.

Completing the paperwork for each case and preparing it for billing takes approximately ten business days after a procedure is performed. The majority of claims are then filed electronically except for those remaining insurance carriers requiring paper filing. An initial response is usually received within four weeks from electronic filing and up to six weeks from paper filing. Responses may be a payment, a denial, or a request for additional information.

The Company’s healthcare revenues are generated from professional medical billings including facility and anesthesia services. With respect to facility and anesthesia services, the Company is the primary obligor as the facility and anesthesia services are considered part of one integrated performance obligation. Historically the Company receives 49% of collections from total gross billed. Accordingly, the Company recognized net healthcare service revenue as 49% of gross billed amounts. Historical collection rates are estimated using the most current prior 12-month historical payment and collection percentages.

The Company satisfies its performance obligations as services are performed and then billed to the patient. Payment in most cases is made by an attorney for such services to the Company’s patients, which are due upon final settlement of patients claims. During the claims process, legal counsel warranties such claims through the letter of protection, which is sent to the Company, as a medical provider, on behalf of the client patient. This letter states that the attorney is responsible for paying the client’s medical bills when the case is fully developed and settles. The medical professional agrees to provide treatment to the injured person and refrain from attempting to collect payment as it is developing and until the case is resolved. Once the personal injury case is finalized with the insurance company, the attorney pays the outstanding medical bills from the settlement.

Historically through April 2023, the Company’s healthcare subsidiary has had contractual medical receivable sales and purchase agreements with third party factors which result in approximately 54% reduction from the accounts receivables amounts when a receivable is sold to the factors. The Company evaluated the factored adjustments considering the actual factored amounts per patient on a quarterly interval, and the reductions from accounts receivable that were factored were recorded in finance charges as other expenses on the consolidated statement of operations. As a result of eighteen to twenty-four month collection timeframe, the Company has an accrued liability resulting from the collections of receivables sold to the third party factors which fluctuates as collections are made and remitted to those third party factors. These accounts receivables sold to these third party factors are not included in the Company’s financial statements accounts receivable balance once sold and therefore are not part of the assessment of accounts receivable collectability.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs are included as a component of cost of sales in the consolidated statements of operations and changes in stockholders’ equity. The Company recognized advertising and marketing expense of $96,899 and $133,326 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company recognized advertising and marketing expense of $171,950 and $171,679 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined 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. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs), and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which 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 are described below:

Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity

The Company accounts for its series N senior convertible preferred stock, series R convertible preferred stock, and series X senior convertible preferred stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”. Conditionally redeemable preferred shares are classified as temporary equity within the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation in which the Company obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions under the recognition and measurement principles of the fair value recognition provisions of section 718-10-30 of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC. Pursuant to paragraph 718-10-30-6 of the FASB ASC, all transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.

The measurement date used to determine the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the performance is complete or the date on which it is probable that performance will occur.

Generally, all forms of share-based payments, including stock option grants, warrants and restricted stock grants and stock appreciation rights are measured at their fair value on the awards’ grant date, based on estimated number of awards that are ultimately expected to vest.

The expense resulting from share-based payments is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are determined in accordance with ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes”. Under this 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 basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any 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 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant facts.

As of June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company didnot have any interest and penalties associated with tax positions and did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions.

Income (Loss) per Share

FASB ASC Subtopic 260, “Earnings Per Share,” provides for the calculation of “Basic” and “Diluted” earnings per share. Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if the potentially dilutive securities had been issued. Potentially dilutive securities include outstanding stock options, warrants, and debts convertible into common stock. The dilutive effect of stock options and warrants are reflected in diluted earnings per common share by application of the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, an increase in the fair market value of the Company’s common stock can result in a greater dilutive effect from potentially dilutive securities. The diluted effect of debt convertibles is reflected utilizing the if converted method.

Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company had sustained recurring operating losses since its inception and has an accumulated deficit of $69,619,474 as of June 30, 2024. These factors raise a substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might result if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and the appropriateness of using the going concern basis is dependent upon, among other things, additional cash infusions. Management is in continuous discussions with prospective investors and believes the raising of capital will allow the Company to fund its cash flow shortfalls and pursue new acquisitions. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain sufficient capital from debt or equity transactions or from operations in the necessary time frame or on terms acceptable to it. Should the Company be unable to raise sufficient funds, it may be required to curtail its operating plans. In addition, if overall Company expenses increase, the Company may need to implement cost reductions. No assurance can be given that the Company will be able to operate profitably on a consistent basis, or at all, in the future. Should the Company not be able to raise sufficient funds, it may cause cessation of operations.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

The FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, “Segment Reporting: Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” (“Topic 280”) in November 2023. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. Topic 280 improves “reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses.” In addition, the amendments enhance interim disclosure requirements, clarify circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss, provide new segment disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment, and contain other disclosure requirements. The purpose of the amendments is to enable “investors to better understand an entity’s overall performance” and assess “potential future cash flows.” Management is evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-07 on the consolidated financial statements and does not expect there to be any changes or impact to the financial statements.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

The FASB issued ASU 2020-06, “Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 81540).” The ASU simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within that period. The FASB also specified that an entity must adopt the guidance as of the beginning of its annual fiscal year and is not permitted to adopt the guidance in an interim period, other than the first interim period of their fiscal year. ASU 2020-06 reduces the number of accounting models for convertible debt and convertible preferred stock instruments and makes certain disclosure amendments to improve the information provided to users. There were no material impacts on the consolidated financial statements at adoption.

During the preparation of the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company identified and corrected its classification and accounting treatment for its series R convertible preferred stock and the related dividend accrual. Pursuant to ASC 250,Accounting changes and error corrections issued by FASB and Staff Accounting Bulletin 99Materiality, issued by Securities and Exchange Commission, the Company determined the impact of the error was immaterial. The impact of the error correction is reflected in the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2023 as a $274,982 increase to the mezzanine equity and offsetting decrease to the series R convertible preferred stock and subject to possible redemption mezzanine equity line item. In addition, the impact of the unpaid dividend accrual was reflected as of June 30, 2023 as a $16,363 increase to mezzanine equity and offsetting decrease to the accumulated deficits.

During the preparation of the financial statements for three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company identified and corrected its classification for all its outstanding common stock amount per par value of $0.001 with additional paid-in-capital related with a 1-for-75,000 reverse split executed on January 9, 2024. The impact of this adjustment decreased $1,804,774 to common stock and offsetting increase to additional paid-in-capital as of December 31, 2023.

On November 10, 2023, the Company sold Platinum Tax, which was a full-service tax resolution firm located in Los Angeles, California. The Company presented in prior periods operating loss as loss from discontinued operations of $43,810 and $89,300 on the consolidated statement of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively.

The impact of the error corrections also reflected a $55.66 increase of basic earnings per share, and a $3.59 increase of diluted earnings per share on the consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2023. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the impact of the error correction reflected a $28.75 increase of basic earnings per share, and an increase of $1.45 of diluted earnings per share.

The following tables summarize the impact of the corrections on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2023, the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, and the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2023:

Notes payable at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 are summarized as follows:

Long-term debt matures as follows:

Promissory Note – Settlement Agreement

On June 11, 2024, the Company entered into a settlement agreement and release of claims with the holder of 165 shares of series R convertible preferred stock and certain convertible promissory notes (see Notes 29-2, 37-1, 37-2, and 37-3 referenced in Note 8.Convertible Notes Payable). Pursuant to the settlement agreement and release of claims, the holder agreed to cancel its shares of series R convertible preferred stock and convertible promissory notes in exchange for a new fixed amount settlement promissory note in the principal amount of $535,000.

The note does not bear interest and requires fixed payments as follows:(i) if the Company raises at least $5 million but less than $6 million in its planned underwritten public offering (the “Offering”), then it must pay $250,000 on the closing date of the Offering, with payments of $125,000, $125,000 and $35,000 to follow on the 90 th, 180 th, and 240 th days following the closing of the Offering, respectively; (ii) if the Company raises at least $6 million but less than $7 million in the Offering, then it must pay $390,000 on the closing date of the Offering and $145,000 on the 90 th day following the closing of the Offering; and (iii) if the Company raises at least $7 million in the Offering, then it must repay the entire principal amount on the closing date of the Offering. If the Offering is not completed by August 15, 2024, then the Company is required to pay $25,000 on such date and to continue making payments of $25,000 on each monthly anniversary thereof until the entire principal amount is repaid in full. If the Offering is completed after August 15, 2024, then the Company is required to make payments as described in the schedule above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company abandons the Offering and conducts a new public offering thereafter, then the Company is required to make a payment of $100,000 on the closing date of such other public offering, a second payment of $100,000 on the 90 th day following the closing of such offering and $35,000 each month thereafter until the entire principal amount is repaid in full. If any portion of the principal amount remains unpaid on the second (2 nd) anniversary of the date of the note, it shall become immediately due and payable on such date. The Company may prepay the entire principal amount at any time without penalty. The note is unsecured and contains customary events of default for a loan of this type. Upon an event of default, interest would automatically begin to accrue at a simple interest rate of ten percent per annum.

Leases

ASC 842, “Leases”, requires that a lessee recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from operating leases, A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. In transaction, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at either the effective date (the “effective date method”) or the beginning of the earliest period presented (the “comparative method”) using a modified retrospective approach. Under the effective date method, the Company’s comparative period reporting is unchanged. In contrast, under the comparative method, the Company’s date of initial application is the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented, and the Topic 842 transition guidance is then applied to all comparative periods presented. Further, under either transition method, the standard includes certain practical expedients intended to ease the burden of adoption. The Company adopted ASC 842, January 1, 2020, using the effective date method and elected certain practical expedients allowing the Company not to reassess:
