Corporate History
American International Holdings Corp.
American International Holdings Corp. was organized in 1986 and is incorporated in Nevada. The Company has undergone several name changes and changes of control since its incorporation; however, from 2012 until April 2019, the Company had no operations and nominal assets.
Prior to May 31, 2018, the Company was a 93.2% owned subsidiary of American International Industries, Inc. (“American”, “AMIN”), a company whose securities are traded on the OTCQB market maintained by OTC Markets under the symbol “AMIN”.
Effective on May 31, 2018, the Company issued (a) 4,300,000 shares of restricted common stock to Mr. Daniel Dror (the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer and President (who resigned from such positions effective on May 31, 2018)); (b) 3,800,000 shares of restricted common stock to Mr. Robert Holden (who was appointed President, Chief Executive Officer and Director of the Company on May 31, 2018 and resigned on August 20, 2018); (c) 750,000 shares of restricted common stock to Mr. Everett Bassie (who was appointed as Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, Treasurer and a member of the board of directors of the Company on May 31, 2018, and who has since resigned from all positions with the Company); (d) 750,000 shares of restricted common stock to Mr. Winfred Fields (a consultant to the Company); and (e) 500,000 shares of restricted common stock to Mr. Charles R. Zeller (a then director of the Company), each in consideration for services rendered to the Company.
As a result of the issuance of the shares in May 2018 as discussed above, a change in control occurred. American International Industries, Inc. ownership decreased from 93.2% to 6.4%.
On April 12, 2019, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with Novopelle Diamond, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“Novopelle Diamond” and “Novopelle”) and certain unitholders of Novopelle Diamond. Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Novopelle Diamond by means of a share exchange with the Novopelle Members in exchange for 18,000,000 newly issued shares of the common stock of the Company (the “Share Exchange”). As a result of the Share Exchange, Novopelle became a 100% owned subsidiary of the Company. The closing of the Share Exchange occurred concurrently with the entry into the Share Exchange Agreement and resulted in a change of control of the Company. As a result of the Share Exchange, the Company acquired the business of Novopelle Diamond and all of its assets. Novopelle Diamond is a physician supervised, medical spa and wellness clinic that offers a full menu of wellness services including anti-aging, weight loss and skin rejuvenation treatments.
The three unitholders of Novopelle Diamond who received shares pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement were (1) Jacob D. Cohen; (2) Esteban Alexander; and (3) Luis Alan Hernandez, who each received six million shares pursuant to the Share Exchange.
Concurrent with the Share Exchange, the Company entered into individual share exchange agreements and promissory notes with each of Daniel Dror, Winfred Fields and former directors Everett Bassie and Charles Zeller (the “AMIH Shareholders”) whereby the AMIH Shareholders agreed to cancel and exchange a total of 4,900,000 shares of their Company common stock for individual promissory notes with an aggregate principal amount of $350,000 (the “Promissory Notes”). The Promissory Notes had a term of two years and accrue interest at the rate of 10% per annum (payable at maturity) until paid in full by the Company. The current principal balance of the Promissory Notes is approximately $110,000 as of the date of this filing.
As a result of the issuance of the shares in the Share Exchange and the cancellation of the shares held by the AMIH Shareholders, control of the Company changed to (1) Jacob D. Cohen; (2) Esteban Alexander; and (3) Alan Hernandez, who each owned 26% of the Company’s common stock following such transactions.
Also effective on April 12, 2019, the directors of the Company changed to Mr. Jacob D. Cohen; Mr. Esteban Alexander; and Mr. Alan Hernandez, who were also each appointed as the Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company (Mr. Cohen); the Chief Operating Officer and Treasurer (Mr. Alexander); and the Chief Marketing Officer and Secretary (Mr. Hernandez). Mr. Bassie resigned as a member of the board of directors of the Company and as the Secretary and Treasurer on April 12, 2019, but remained as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer until his passing on May 21, 2020.

On October 2, 2020, Jacob D. Cohen, the Chief Executive Officer and member of the board of directors of the Company entered into Stock Purchase Agreements with each of (a) Esteban Alexander, the Chief Operating Officer and member of the board of directors of the Company, and (b) Luis Alan Hernandez, the Chief Marketing Officer and member of the board of directors of the Company (collectively, the “Preferred Holders” and the “Stock Purchase Agreements”).
Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreements, Mr. Alexander agreed to sell 7,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company which he held to Mr. Cohen, which rights to such shares were assigned by Mr. Cohen to Cohen Enterprises, Inc., which entity he controls (“Cohen Enterprises”), in consideration for an aggregate of $1,500 as well as for the amount of services provided by Mr. Cohen to the Company; and Mr. Hernandez agreed to sell 4,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company which he held to Cohen Enterprises, in consideration for an aggregate of $1,000 as well as for the amount of services provided by Mr. Cohen to the Company. The sales closed on November 5, 2020.
One of the reasons that Mr. Alexander and Mr. Hernandez agreed to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreements (including the sale of the shares of common stock of the Company at below market value), is because (a) each of Mr. Cohen, Mr. Alexander, and Mr. Hernandez were all appointed as officers and directors of the Company at the same time in April 2019, with the intention that such persons would provide a relatively equal amount of services to the Company in the roles as officers and directors thereof; (b) since such appointment date Mr. Cohen has been required to provide a disproportionate amount of services to the Company; and (c) each of Mr. Alexander and Mr. Hernandez desired to provide additional consideration to Mr. Cohen for such disproportionate level of service.
A condition to the Stock Purchase Agreements was that each of Mr. Alexander and Mr. Hernandez resign as a member of the board of directors of the Company by no later than January 15, 2021, which resignations were effective December 15, 2020.
A further requirement to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreements was that each of Mr. Alexander and Mr. Hernandez take such actions necessary and which may be requested from time to time by Mr. Cohen, to affect the cancellation of the one share of Series A Preferred Stock of the Company held by each of them, for no consideration (including, but not limited to, without the required payment by the Company of the $1 redemption price described in the designation of such Series A Preferred Stock).
The shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by Mr. Alexander and Mr. Hernandez were canceled on November 6, 2020. The common shares were also transferred to Mr. Cohen on November 6, 2020, and as such, a change of control occurred on such date, with Mr. Cohen taking over voting control of the Company, and serving since December 15, 2020, as the sole officer and director of the Company.
The Company is headquartered in Addison, Texas and operates as a holding company dedicated to acquiring, managing and operating subsidiaries in (a) the health, wellness, and auxiliary industries across the United States and abroad; (b) general contracting and construction services; and (c) life coaching industry. The Company seeks opportunities to acquire and grow businesses that possess strong brand values and that can generate long-term sustainable free cash flow and attractive returns in order to maximize value for all stakeholders.
The Company currently is the parent to seven wholly-owned subsidiaries and one majority-owned subsidiary.

MEDICAL SPA AND WELLNESS
The Company currently owns three wholly-owned subsidiaries that were in the Medical Spa and Wellness Sector (collectively hereinafter referred to as “MedSpa”, or “VISSIA”), which MedSpas the Company discontinued operations in October 2020. They are:
1. VISSIA MCKINNEY, LLC (F/K/A NOVOPELLE DIAMOND, LLC) – 100% OWNED
As described above, on April 12, 2019, the Company entered into the Share Exchange Agreement with Novopelle and acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Novopelle Diamond by means of a share exchange with the Novopelle Members in exchange for 18,000,000 newly issued shares of the common stock of the Company. As a result of the Share Exchange, VISSIA McKinney became a 100% owned subsidiary of the Company. As a result of the Share Exchange, the Company acquired the business of VISSIA McKinney and all of its assets. VISSIA McKinney is a physician supervised, medical spa and wellness clinic that offers a full menu of wellness services including anti-aging, weight loss and skin rejuvenation treatments located at 5000 Collin McKinney Parkway, Suite 150, McKinney, Texas 75070.
On June 27, 2019, the Company entered into an Exclusive License Agreement with Novo MedSpa Addison Corporation (“NMAC”) granting the Company the exclusive rights to the Novopelle intellectual property, including copyrights and trademarks, proprietary technology, and other assets necessary or desirable to operate Novopelle branded MedSpa locations and the right to open additional Novopelle branded MedSpa locations. The agreement provides the Company with an exclusive worldwide, unrestricted, perpetual, irrevocable, and royalty-bearing license.
Upon the execution of the License Agreement, the Company made a one-time cash payment in the amount of Forty Thousand Dollars ($40,000) and issued to NMAC a one-time stock issuance of 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. In addition, the Company has agreed to compensate NMAC with a one-time payment of Thirty Thousand Dollars ($30,000) per new Novopelle location as established by the Company and provide NMAC with an ongoing royalty payment equal to six percent (6%) of the newly established location’s total gross monthly revenues.
On May 13, 2020, the Company provided NMAC with its notice to terminate the License Agreement in pursuit of the Company’s desire to establish and develop its own brand and have the flexibilities to offer additional products and services that are not currently available at Novopelle branded locations. As a result, on May 19, 2020, Novopelle Diamond, LLC was officially renamed to VISSIA McKinney, LLC. Effective on May 13, 2020 the License Agreement was terminated. The Company decided to discontinue operations in October 2020.
2. VISSIA WATERWAY, INC. (F/K/A NOVOPELLE WATERWAY, INC.) – 100% OWNED
On September 11, 2019, the Company formed and organized Novopelle Waterway, Inc., in the State of Texas to establish a Novopelle branded med spa located in the Waterway section of the Woodlands, Texas. As a result of the termination of the License Agreement with NMAC, Novopelle Waterway, Inc. was officially renamed to VISSIA Waterway, Inc. on May 19, 2020.
On November 6, 2019, VISSIA Waterway, Inc. entered into a Lease Agreement with 20 & 25 Waterway Holdings, LLC to lease and occupy approximately 1,254 square feet of commercial retail space located at 25 Waterway, Suite 150, The Woodlands, Texas and officially opened its doors for service at the end of February 2020. The Company decided to discontinue operations in October 2020.
3. NOVOPELLE TYLER, INC. – 100% OWNED
On December 3, 2019, the Company formed and organized Novopelle Tyler, Inc. in the State of Texas with the plan to come to terms on a retail location for a newly established Novopelle branded med spa to be located in Tyler, Texas.
On January 6, 2020, Novopelle Tyler, Inc. entered into a Lease Agreement with Asher Park, LLC to lease and occupy approximately 1,900 square feet of commercial retail space located in Tyler, Texas to operate a planned new Novopelle MedSpa location. As of the date of this Report, and due to issues and delays related to COVID-19, Novopelle Tyler has canceled the lease agreement in August 2020 as the current market and economic conditions continue to worsen due to unforeseen circumstances related to COVID-19. As such, Novopelle Tyler has not effectuated the name change to VISSIA with the State of Texas and no longer intends to open this location. No further activity has been performed under Novopelle Tyler to date and the Company decided to discontinue operations in October 2020.

As a result of COVID-19 and ‘stay-at-home’ and social distancing orders issued in McKinney and The Woodlands, Texas, we had to close both of our then operational MedSpas, VISSIA McKinney and VISSIA Waterway, Inc., which were closed effective March 10, 2020, and which resulted in both the loss of income and the loss of most of our workforce, who had to be let go. VISSIA Waterway, Inc. reopened effective June 21, 2020 and VISSIA McKinney reopened effective August 8, 2020. However, due to the termination of employees associated with the shutdown we were forced to expend resources to attract, hire and train completely new staff for preparation of the re-launchings. Notwithstanding the re-openings, customer traffic and demand at our VISSIA Waterway, Inc. and VISSIA McKinney MedSpa locations failed to rebound to pre-closure levels due to COVID-19 and the pandemic’s effects on the economy, and because we are unable to predict the length of the pandemic or ultimate outcome thereof, and further due to our limited capital resources, effective on October 25, 2020, we discontinued operations of both our VISSIA Waterway, Inc. and VISSIA McKinney locations. Our former MedSpa operations and assets are included under discontinued operations in the statement of operations and balance sheet included herein in “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data”.
VISSIA Service Offerings
Our VISSIA med spas were Texas based, physician-supervised medical spa & wellness clinics. When operational, VISSIA offered the following products and services:
● | Stem Cell Therapy | ● | Acne & Acne Scar Reduction |
● | Laser Hair Removal | ● | Testosterone Replacement Therapy |
● | PRP Facial (Vampire Facial) | ● | Hair Restoration |
● | Novo Lipo (Body Contouring) | ● | Botox & Fillers |
● | Laser Vein Removal | ● | Facials & Peels |
● | Cellulite Reduction | ● | Weight Loss Solutions |
● | Stretch Mark Reduction | ● | IV Therapies |
Medical Spa Marketing Strategy
When operational, VISSIA marketed its products and services to both men and women that are conscience about fitness, health, wellness and aesthetics.
When operational, VISSIA deployed unique, proven marketing strategies through social media with both sponsored and paid advertisements as well as the use of local brand ambassadors and influencers. VISSIA experienced a lot of success by placing marketing materials in nearby retail establishments and utilizing cross marketing relationships with other vendors and retailers that market to similar demographics.
Competition
The health, wellness, fashion and medical spa industries are highly competitive with new locations, brands and facilities being established on a frequent basis. The industries continue to expand and evolve as an increasing number of competitors and potential competitors enter the market. Many of these competitors and potential competitors have substantially greater financial, technological, managerial and research and development resources and experience than we have. Some of these competitors and potential competitors have more experience than we have in the development of health and wellness services and products. In addition, our services and products compete with service and product offerings from large and well-established companies that have greater marketing and sales experience and capabilities than we or our collaboration partners have.
8 |
Specifically, and as it relates to medical spas, there are both many independently operated locations as well as doctor’s offices that provide some or all of the services that we provide. At the same time, the demand and the number of individuals – both men and women – that are seeking medical spas for a variety of health, wellness and cosmetic/aesthetic type treatments and solutions has increased dramatically over the past several years. With medical spa treatments, such as laser hair removal and Botox injections, becoming more available, desirable, and affordable, demand for these services has dramatically increased.
CAPITOL CITY SOLUTIONS, USA, INC. – 100% OWNED
On September 17, 2019, the Company formed and organized Capitol City Solutions USA, Inc. (“CCS”) in the State of Texas to act as a general contracting and construction company focused on the remodeling, general construction and interior finish of both the Company’s newly established med spa locations as well as to market to other commercial real estate projects within the United States.
Service Offerings
CCS currently offers a variety of general contracting services to oversee the entirety of commercial construction projects and manage all phases of construction. These areas can range from permitting, roofing and exterior construction or remodeling, to interior finish out, including but not limited to cabinetry, drywall, plumbing and electrical. CCS primarily utilizes the services of its sub-contractors in order to perform its services and in some instances will perform various construction related tasks with its own work force in order to improve its project specific margins and profitability.
Marketing Strategy
CCS has primarily relied on word of mouth and existing relationships in order to market and secure its services and obtain access to viable projects. Additional strategies include the utilization of search engine optimization (SEO) marketing on its website at www.capitolcitysolutionsusa.com (which includes information the Company does not desire to incorporate by reference into this Report) and other social media outlets to reach out to both commercial developers and multi-family property owners and developers to solicit additional projects. Due to its current resources, CCS is currently limiting its marketing initiatives for projects located within the State of Texas.
Competition
The general contracting and construction industry is highly competitive with many larger, more established construction companies vying and marketing for the same projects as CCS. Many of these competitors and potential competitors have substantially greater financial, technological, managerial, technical and development resources and experience than we have. Some of these competitors and potential competitors have more experience than we have in all aspects of construction from both a new construction development and commercial remodeling.
LEGEND NUTRITION, INC. – 100% OWNED
On September 23, 2019, the Company formed and organized Legend Nutrition, Inc. (“Legend Nutrition”) in the State of Texas to act as a new brand of retail vitamin and supplement stores to be branded and marketed as Legend Nutrition.
October 18, 2019, Legend entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement to acquire all of the assets associated with and related to a retail vitamin, supplements and nutrition store located in McKinney, Texas and previously identified and doing business as “Ideal Nutrition.” Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, Legend purchased a variety of assets including software, contracts, bank and merchant accounts, products, inventory, computers, security systems and other intellectual properties.
Product and Service Offerings
Legend Nutrition operated a 1,500 square foot retail store offering a variety of vitamin & nutritional supplements as well as nutritional and weight loss plans through a consultative approach with each and every customer. Legend Nutrition’s products include, but are not limited to, a variety of workout related supplements such as vitamins, protein powders, pre-workout powders, and post-workout supplements that focus on muscle and overall health recovery. Legend Nutrition was located at 2851 Craig Drive, Suite #204, McKinney, TX 75070.
9 |
Legend Nutrition sold, marketed and catered to an audience of health conscience and minded individuals including, but not limited to, athletes, sports enthusiasts and bodybuilders. Legend Nutrition deployed a number of marketing strategies in order to attract local customers to its retail store. The most effective marketing strategy was the use of promotional marketing materials, such as Legend Nutrition branded t-shirts, which were distributed to its customers free of charge. Customers would wear these t-shirts when they work out at their local gym and were encouraged to post pictures and tag Legend Nutrition on various social media applications. Legend Nutrition also set up displays at local gyms and other local retail establishments to promote its various products and services.
The MedSpas were forced to close during the second and third quarters of 2020, and the Company discontinued such operations during the fourth quarter of 2020. Legend Nutrition was able to remain open as an essential business as we sold vitamins and other nutritional supplements. Though the store was able to remain open, the store saw a deep decline in sales due to social distancing orders and decreases in customers who are willing to venture out to brick and mortar establishments. Legend Nutrition’s lease was up January 31, 2021, and the Company chose not to renew the lease, closed the store, and will not continue in this line of business moving forward. Our former Legend Nutrition operations and assets are included under discontinued operations in the statement of operations and balance sheet included herein in “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data”.
LIFE GURU, INC. – 51% OWNED
On May 15, 2020, the Company acquired a 51% interest in Life Guru, Inc., a Delaware corporation. Life Guru owns the website www.LifeGuru.me – a website dedicated to providing an online platform to connect consumers to a variety of mentors, professionals, life coaches and career coaches (which includes information the Company does not desire to incorporate by reference into this Report). The LifeGuru.me website is currently in development and is anticipated to be fully launched on or before March 31, 2021. For the year ended December 31, 2020, we had an impairment loss of $670,488 primarily attributable to the investment in LifeGuru, which was impaired due to limited activities to date and uncertain future cash flows.
ZIPDOCTOR, INC. – 100% OWNED
On April 28, 2020, the Company incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary, ZipDoctor, Inc. (“ZipDoctor”) in the State of Texas. ZipDoctor plans to provide its customers with unlimited, 24/7 access to board certified physicians and licensed mental and behavioral health counselors and therapists via a newly developed, monthly subscription based online telemedicine platform. ZipDoctor’s online telemedicine platform is available to customers across the United States and offers bilingual coverage (both English and Spanish), with virtual visits taking place either via the phone or through a secured video chat platform. ZipDoctor customers subscribe through the website and are only required to pay a low monthly fee, which is determined based on if they are an individual, a couple, or a family. ZipDoctor is currently being sold on a direct-to-consumer basis with an emphasis on digital marketing and advertising. The Company intends to shift the business model to focus on offering ZipDoctor’s services to small to medium size companies to provide its telemedicine services to their employees as an employment health benefit. The Company launched the platform in the third quarter of 2020 and has generated nominal revenues to date.
EPIQ MD, INC. – 100% OWNED
On October 23, 2020, the Company incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary, EPIQ MD, Inc. (“EPIQ MD”) in the State of Nevada. EPIQ MD is planned to be a direct to consumer, telemedicine and healthcare company targeting the over approximately 76 million Americans who are uninsured or underinsured; this includes, but is not limited to the working class, middle income and upper middle-income demographics. The EPIQ MD service offering is planned to be a convergence of primary care telemedicine, preventative care services and wellness programs – under one brand and on one platform. The EPIQ MD services are planned to be sold directly to consumers using a direct sales model and utilizing brand ambassadors. EPIQ MD is currently in development mode and anticipates a soft launch in the 2nd quarter of 2021.

The Company intends to continue to grow its business both organically and through identifying acquisition targets over the next 12 months in the telemedicine, life coaching, and wellness space. As these opportunities arise, the Company will determine the best method for financing its growth which may include the issuance of additional debt instruments, common stock, preferred stock, or a combination thereof, any one or more of which may cause significant dilution to existing shareholders.
Organizational Structure
Recent Events:
On January 6, 2021 (the “First Closing Date”), we closed the transactions contemplated by a Securities Purchase Agreement dated January 6, 2021 (the “Purchase Agreement”), which was entered into with a group of accredited institutional investors (collectively, the “Investors”), for the sale of convertible promissory notes.
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to sell 6% Original Issue Discount Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $1,450,000 (the “Notes”) and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 6,750,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Warrants”) to the Investors and entered into a Security Agreement, a Guaranty Agreement, a Pledge Agreement, and a Registration Rights Agreement (the foregoing, collectively with the Purchase Agreement, Notes and Warrant, the “Transaction Documents”). The Purchase Agreement includes indemnification obligations of the Company, requirements for the Company to reserve three times the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes and exercise of the Warrants, the right of the Investors to participate up to 30% in any future equity or debt offering made by the Company in the 12 months after the First Closing Date, a prohibition on the Company selling any shares of common stock or common stock equivalents until 30 days after the First Closing Date, subject to certain exceptions, a one year prohibition on the Company entering into any equity line transaction or variable rate transaction (including convertible notes with adjustable conversion prices), and a one year prohibition, without the approval of the Investors, of a reverse or forward stock split.
A total of $850,000 in Notes (the “First Tranche Notes”) were sold on the First Closing Date, and a total of $600,000 in Notes (the “Second Tranche Notes”), were sold on March 30, 2021 (the “Second Closing Date”). In connection with the sale of the First Tranche Notes, the Company paid $25,000 of the Investors’ legal fees and certain other amounts in expense reimbursements.
Network 1 Financial Securities, Inc. acted as the placement agent for the Notes and the Company paid Network 1 Financial Services, Inc. a total of $51,000 in placement fees in connection with the sale of the First Tranche Notes and $36,000 in placement fees in connection with the sale of the Second Tranche Notes.
The Company plans to use a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Notes to repay existing variable priced convertible promissory notes and for general working capital.
The First Tranche Notes mature on January 7, 2022 and the Second Tranche Notes mature on March 30, 2022, and accrue interest at a rate of 6% per annum (15% upon the occurrence of an event of default) payable to the Investors in cash on a calendar quarterly basis (which changes to monthly upon the occurrence of an event of default). Each of the Notes contained a 6% original issue discount.
11 |
The First Tranche Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at any time, at a rate equal to the lesser of (i) $0.50 per share and (ii) 75% of the lowest daily volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of the Company’s common stock during the seven consecutive trading days prior to the delivery of a conversion notice (the “Market Price”), but not less than 75% of the VWAP on the First Closing Date. The Second Tranche Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a rate equal to the lesser of (1) the VWAP on the Second Closing date ($0.2437) or (2) the Market Price, but not less than 75% of the VWAP on the Second Tranche closing date. However, if while any Notes are outstanding and the daily VWAP on any of seven consecutive trading days is less than the applicable floor price(s), such floor price(s) are reduced (but not increased) to 75% of the VWAP on the seventh trading day.
The conversion price of the Notes may be adjusted upon the occurrence of certain events and the Notes may be declared immediately due and payable by the Investors in the event the Company defaults on any terms of the Notes or the other Transaction Documents. Additionally, at the option of the Investors, upon the occurrence of any event of default, the Investors can elect to convert the Notes at the lower of the stated conversion price and a conversion price equal to 70% of the lowest closing bid price of the common stock during the 10 consecutive trading day period ending and including the date of delivery or deemed delivery of any applicable conversion notice (the “Alternative Conversion Price”). The Notes contain penalties for the Company’s failure to timely deliver shares due upon conversion thereof. The Notes contain provisions limiting each Investor’s ability to convert any portion of its individual Note if such conversion would cause the Investor’s (or any affiliate of any such Investor) holdings in the Company to exceed 9.99% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock. The Notes contain customary events of default, which include any default of $30,000 of more of indebtedness of the Company, final judgements equal to or greater than $75,000 rendered against the Company, and the Company’s failure to comply with the reporting obligations of the Exchange Act. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, at the option of the holder thereof, the amount of the Note increases by 110% (including principal and accrued interest) (plus 2% additional for each event of default that occurs thereafter). The Notes contain certain rights of the holders thereof upon the occurrence of a change of control or fundamental transaction, each as described in greater detail therein.
The Warrants are exercisable at various prices with (i) Warrants to purchase 2,250,000 shares of common stock exercisable at $0.20 per share, (ii) Warrants to purchase 2,250,000 shares of common stock exercisable at $0.35 per share, and (iii) Warrants to purchase 2,250,000 shares of common stock exercisable at $0.50 per share. All of the Warrants may be exercised via cashless exercise in the event that the shares underlying the Warrants are not registered within 180 days of the closing of the transaction. The Warrants, if not exercised by such date, terminate on January 7, 2026. The Warrants contain provisions limiting each Investor’s ability to exercise the Warrants if such exercise would cause the Investor’s (or any affiliate of any such Investor) holdings in the Company to exceed 9.99% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock. We may prepay the Notes (provided we treat all Note holders equally) by paying 110% of the principal and interest thereon at any time (provided we are required to provide the holders 15 days prior written notice of such repayment, and during which time period the holder may convert the Note into common stock). Unless the Company’s common stock is listed on the NYSE, the NYSE American, the Nasdaq Capital Market, Nasdaq Global Market or Nasdaq Global Select, at any time the Company issues common stock or common stock equivalents, subject to certain exceptions, below the then exercise price, the exercise price of the Warrants reset to the lower of such dilutive issuance or the VWAP on the next trading day following the first public disclosure of such dilutive issuance. Upon an event of default, the exercise price of the Warrants, at the option of the Investors, is the Alternative Conversion Price. If the Company undertakes a fundamental transaction and the successor entity is not a publicly-traded company, the holders of the Warrants have the right to require the Company to pay the greater of (a) the Black Scholes Value of the warrants; and (b) the positive difference between the consideration payable in such fundamental transaction minus the exercise price.
Pursuant to the Security Agreement, the Company and each of its subsidiaries provided the Investors a first priority security interest in substantially all of their assets to secure the repayment of the Notes.
The Subsidiary Guaranty, signed by each of the Company’s subsidiaries, provides for joint and several guaranties of the obligations set forth in the Notes by each of the Company’s subsidiaries. Each future subsidiary of the Company is required to enter into a joinder to the agreement as well.
12 |
Pursuant to the Pledge Agreement, we pledged all of the outstanding securities of each of our subsidiaries to the collateral agent of the Investors in order to secure amounts payable pursuant to the Notes.
In connection with the Registration Rights Agreement, we provided the Investors registration rights in connection with the Notes and Warrants, and agreed to (1) file a Registration Statement on Form S-1 within 21 days after the First Closing Date to register the common stock to be acquired by the Investors pursuant to the conversion of the Notes and exercise of the Warrants and any other shares of common stock subsequently acquired by the Investors, which was timely filed, and has been declared effective, and granted the Investors piggy-back registration rights. We also agreed to indemnify the Investors in connection with any liability in connection with the registration of such securities.
The Transaction Documents contain other representations, warranties, covenants and restrictions common with this type of transaction, including but not limited to, most favored nations provisions (which apply to the conversion price of the Notes, the terms of the Notes and the terms of the Warrants) and future participation clauses, and prohibitions on further borrowing.
On March 8, 2021, we entered into a Consulting Agreement with KBHS, LLC (“KBHS”), whose Chief Executive Officer is Mr. Kevin Harrington, who was appointed as the sole member of our newly formed Advisory Committee.
Pursuant to the Consulting Agreement, KBHS agreed to provide consulting services to the Company as the Company’s Brand Ambassador, including providing endorsement services and advising on marketing, promotions, acquisitions, licensing and business development. KBHS also agreed to up to four webinar appearances on behalf of the Company per year to support the Company’s direct sales efforts. The Consulting Agreement has a term of two years, and can be terminated with ten days prior written notice (subject to applicable cure rights set forth in the Consulting Agreement), in the event we or KBHS breach any term of the agreement, or we fail to pay any amounts due, become subject to any government regulatory investigation, certain lawsuits, claims, actions or take certain other actions during the term of the Consulting Agreement.
As consideration for providing the services under the Consulting Agreement, we agreed to issue KBHS 1.5 million shares of restricted common stock, which vest immediately upon issuance, to pay KBHS $10,000 per month, and agreed to pay KBHS a 5% finder’s fee on any new business introduced or developed by KBHS and 7.5% of the value of any acquisition or merger created or developed exclusively by KBHS, undertaken by the Company, subject to applicable laws. In the event we fail to pay any consideration due under the Consulting Agreement, such amount accrues interest at the rate of 1.5% per month until paid in full.
COVID-19 Outlook
The outbreak of the 2019 novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”), which was declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020, and the related responses by public health and governmental authorities to contain and combat its outbreak and spread has severely impacted the U.S. and world economies, the market for health spa services, nutrition supplements and our other business offerings during the end of the first quarter of 2020, and continuing through the end of 2020, and into 2021. Government mandated ‘stay-at-home’ and similar orders have to date, and may in the future, prevent us from staffing our spas and construction services, and prohibit us from operating altogether. As discussed above, we made the decision to discontinue operations of our VISSIA Waterway, Inc. and VISSIA McKinney locations.
Additionally, our Legend Nutrition store saw a deep decline in sales due to social distancing orders and decreases in customers who are willing to venture out to brick and mortar establishments. Legend Nutrition’s lease was up January 31, 2021, and the Company chose not to renew the lease, closed the store, and will not continue in this line of business moving forward.
13 |
We currently anticipate experiencing ongoing disruptions to our ability to reopen our medical spas and provide construction services, and provide future planned telehealth services and overall declines in the demand for our other offerings throughout the first half of 2021, at a minimum, as Texas, and the U.S. in general, continues to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic and rollout vaccines. Any prolonged disruption to our operations, work force available, is likely to have a significant adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows and ability to meet continuing debt service requirements. We have also experienced delays in completing construction projects due to the effects of COVID-19.
Employees
We currently have a total of six full-time employees and 2 part-time employees. Our compensation programs are designed to align the compensation of our employees with performance and to provide the proper incentives to attract, retain and motivate employees to achieve superior results. The structure of our compensation programs balances incentives earnings for both short-term and long-term performance such as incentive bonuses and flexible. schedules. The Company believes that its rich culture of inclusion and diversity enables it to create, develop and fully leverage the strength of its workforce to exceed customer expectation and meet its growth objectives. The Company places a high value on diversity and inclusion. We also utilize numerous outside consultants. Our future success will depend partially on our ability to attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel. We are not a party to any collective bargaining agreements and have not experienced any strikes or work stoppages. We consider our relations with our employees to be satisfactory.
Government Regulation
The health care industry is subject to extensive federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to licensure, conduct of operations, ownership of facilities, addition of facilities and services, payment for services and prices for services that are extremely complex and for which, in many instances, the industry does not have the benefit of significant regulatory or judicial interpretation. We will also be subject to regulation regarding sale of our products online and solicitation of clients thereby, as well as through our general contractor business and the licensing and code requirements relating thereto.
Investing in our common stock will provide an investor with an equity ownership interest. Shareholders will be subject to risks inherent in our business. The performance of our shares will reflect the performance of our business relative to, among other things, general economic and industry conditions, market conditions and competition. The value of the investment may increase or decrease and could result in a loss. An investor should carefully consider the following factors as well as other information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
This Annual Report on Form 10-K also contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, see also “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements”, above. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including the risk factors described below and the other factors described elsewhere in this Form 10-K.

Risks Related to our Business
Since we have a limited operating history it is difficult for potential investors to evaluate our business.
Our short operating history in the health and wellness industry, construction industry and mentoring/life coach industry may hinder our ability to successfully meet our objectives and makes it difficult for potential investors to evaluate our business or prospective operations. As an early-stage company, we are subject to all the risks inherent in the financing, expenditures, operations, complications and delays inherent in a new business. Accordingly, our business and success face risks from uncertainties faced by developing companies in a competitive environment. There can be no assurance that our efforts will be successful or that we will ultimately be able to attain profitability.
We may not be able to raise capital when needed, if at all, which would force us to delay, reduce or eliminate our service locations and product development programs or commercialization efforts and could cause our business to fail.
We expect to need substantial additional funding to pursue additional service locations and product development and commercialize our products and services. There are no assurances that future funding will be available on favorable terms or at all. The failure to fund our operating and capital requirements could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. If we are unable to raise capital when needed or on attractive terms, we could be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate our expansion of spa locations and development programs or any future commercialization efforts. Any of these events could significantly harm our business, financial condition and prospects.
15 |
Our business has been materially and adversely disrupted by COVID-19, and the control response measures that state and local governments have implemented to address it, and may be impacted by other epidemics or pandemics in the future. We have been forced to close our MedSpas and made the decision to close our nutrition store.
An epidemic, pandemic or similar serious public health issue, and the measures undertaken by governmental authorities to address it, could significantly disrupt or prevent us from operating our business in the ordinary course for an extended period, and thereby, and/or along with any associated economic and/or social instability or distress, have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial statements.
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization characterized the outbreak of COVID-19 as a global pandemic and recommended containment and mitigation measures. On March 13, 2020, the United States declared a national emergency concerning the outbreak, and several states and municipalities have declared public health emergencies. Along with these declarations, there have been extraordinary and wide-ranging actions taken by international, federal, state and local public health and governmental authorities to contain and combat the outbreak and spread of COVID-19 in regions across the United States and the world, including quarantines, “stay-at-home” orders and similar mandates for many individuals to substantially restrict daily activities and for many businesses to curtail or cease normal operations.
The COVID-19 pandemic, and related social distancing requirements, travel bans, stay-at-home orders and closures limited access to our spas and store and forced us to close our spas and store during the first quarter of 2020 and into the second quarter of 2020. Specifically, as a result of COVID-19 and ‘stay-at-home’ and social distancing orders issued in McKinney and The Woodlands, Texas, we had to close both of our MedSpas, VISSIA McKinney and VISSIA Waterway, Inc., which were closed effective March 10, 2020, and which resulted in both the loss of income and the loss of most of our workforce, who had to be let go. VISSIA Waterway, Inc. reopened effective June 21, 2020 and VISSIA McKinney reopened effective August 8, 2020. However, due to the termination of employees associated with the shutdown we were forced to expend resources to attract, hire and train completely new staff for preparation of the re-launchings. Notwithstanding the re-openings, customer traffic and demand at our VISSIA Waterway, Inc. and VISSIA McKinney MedSpa locations failed to rebound to pre-closure levels due to COVID-19 and the pandemic’s effects on the economy, and because we are unable to predict the length of the pandemic or ultimate outcome thereof, and further due to our limited capital resources, effective in October 2020, we made the decision to discontinue operations of our VISSIA Waterway, Inc. and VISSIA McKinney locations. Such locations remain closed through the date of this Report.
Our MedSpas were forced to close during the second and third quarters. Legend Nutrition was able to remain open as an essential business as we sold vitamins and other nutritional supplements. Though the store was able to remain open, the store saw a deep decline in sales due to social distancing orders and decreases in customers who are willing to venture out to brick and mortar establishments. Legend Nutrition’s lease was up January 31, 2021, and the Company chose not to renew the lease, closed the store, and will not continue in this line of business moving forward.
All of the above has in turn, not only negatively impacted our operations, financial condition and demand for our services, but our overall ability to react timely to mitigate the impact of this event. To date, our second through fourth quarter 2020 financial results have been, and we anticipate our financial results for the first half of 2021, at a minimum, will be, significantly negatively affected by COVID-19 and the closure of our med spas in connection therewith (both due to governmental orders and separately due to our lack of operating funds); however, the full effect on our business and operation is currently unknown. The outbreak of COVID-19 has caused significant disruptions to the Company’s ability to generate revenues and cash flows, and uncertainty regarding the length of the disruption may adversely impact our ability to raise additional capital.
16 |
The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows will depend on our ability to have sufficient liquidity until such time as we are able to re-open our stores and until our stores can again generate revenue capable of supporting our ongoing operations, if at all, all of which remain highly uncertain at this time.
We currently anticipate experiencing ongoing disruptions to our ability to provide construction services, throughout 2021 (and likely beyond) as the U.S. continues to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic. Any prolonged disruption to our operations is likely to have a significant adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows and ability to meet continuing debt service requirements.
The inherent uncertainty surrounding COVID-19, due in part to rapidly changing governmental directives, public health challenges and progress, and market reactions thereto, also makes it more challenging for our management to estimate the future performance of our business and develop strategies to generate growth. Should the adverse impacts described above (or others that are currently unknown) occur, whether individually or collectively, we would expect to experience, among other things, significant decreases in our revenues and increases in net loss, as we did during our 2020 first, second, third and fourth quarters, and such impacts are likely to continue be material to our consolidated financial statements in the fourth quarter and beyond. In addition, should the COVID-19 public health effort intensify to such an extent that we cannot operate, if there are prolonged government restrictions on our business and our customers, and/or an extended economic recession, we could be unable to produce revenues and cash flows sufficient to conduct our business; or service our outstanding debt. Such a circumstance could, among other things, exhaust our available liquidity (and ability to access liquidity sources) and/or trigger an acceleration to pay a significant portion or all of our then-outstanding debt obligations, which we may be unable to do.
Our business may suffer from the severity or longevity of the Coronavirus/COVID-19 Global Outbreak.
The demand for our services relies upon, among other things, (a) customers being able to, and being willing to, visit our health, wellness and beauty medical spas (all of which are now closed, pending our receipt of further funding and/or entry into partnerships to operate such medical spas) and/or our ability to re-open our medical spas, (b) our ability to perform construction services for construction clients, and (c) the ability of our telemedicine platform to provide telemedicine services. The inability due to state and local social distancing orders, or unwillingness of, individuals to congregate in large groups, visit retail business or travel outside of their homes will, and has to date, had a negative effect on our operations. Additionally, government mandated ‘stay-at-home’ and similar orders have to date, and may in the future, prevent us from staffing our spas (all of which are currently closed) and construction services, and prohibited us from operating altogether. Loss of available employees due to health concerns in the future may also limit our ability to operate. Economic recessions, including those brought on by the COVID-19 outbreak may have a negative effect on the demand for our services and our operating results. We have also experienced delays due to the COVID-19 outbreak in receiving products and supplies which we need to operate. All of the above may be exacerbated in the future as the COVID-19 outbreak and the governmental responses thereto continues. All of the above may in the future cause, and have to date caused, a material adverse effect on our operating results.
We have decided to shut down our MedSpas and are subject to continuing losses while such businesses are shut down. We also decided to close our nutrition store and leave that business.
Customer traffic and demand at our VISSIA Waterway, Inc. and VISSIA McKinney MedSpa locations which were re-opened after mandatory closures associated with COVID-19 in June and August 2020, respectively, failed to rebound to pre-closure levels due to COVID-19 and the pandemic’s effects on the economy, and because we are unable to predict the length of the pandemic or ultimate outcome thereof, and further due to our limited capital resources, effective in October 2020, we made the decision to close both our VISSIA Waterway, Inc. and VISSIA McKinney locations and discontinue operations. While such locations are closed, they are not generating any revenue; however, we are still required to pay the rent and utilities for each location. Such continuing expenses, without corresponding revenues, may have a significant negative affect on our results of operations and cash flows. Separately, legend Nutrition’s lease was up January 31, 2021, and the Company chose not to renew the lease, closed the store, and not continue in that line of business moving forward.

We may owe significant amounts to a consultant under the terms of a consulting agreement.
On March 8, 2021, we entered into a Consulting Agreement with KBHS, LLC (“KBHS”), whose Chief Executive Officer is Mr. Kevin Harrington, who was appointed the sole member of our newly formed Advisory Committee. Pursuant to the Consulting Agreement, KBHS agreed to provide consulting services to the Company as the Company’s Brand Ambassador, including providing endorsement services and advising on marketing, promotions, acquisitions, licensing and business development. KBHS also agreed to up to four webinar appearances on behalf of the Company per year to support the Company’s direct sales efforts. The Consulting Agreement has a term of two years, and can be terminated with ten days prior written notice (subject to applicable cure rights set forth in the Consulting Agreement), in the event we or KBHS breach any term of the agreement, or we fail to pay any amounts due, become subject to any government regulatory investigation, certain lawsuits, claims, actions or take certain other actions during the term of the Consulting Agreement. As consideration for providing the services under the Consulting Agreement, we agreed to issue KBHS 1.5 million shares of restricted common stock, which vest immediately upon issuance, to pay KBHS $10,000 per month, and agreed to pay KBHS a 5% finder’s fee on any new business introduced or developed by KBHS and 7.5% of the value of any acquisition or merger created or developed exclusively by KBHS, undertaken by the Company, subject to applicable laws. In the event we fail to pay any consideration due under the Consulting Agreement, such amount accrues interest at the rate of 1.5% per month until paid in full.
The requirement to pay the finder’s fees and/or acquisition/merger fee under the agreement could significantly decrease any margin we would otherwise obtain on any transaction, decrease our cash flows, and could prevent us from completing certain transactions in the future, all of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company and its securities.
We have previous suffered impairment losses and if our assets and equipment (including our VISSIA MedSpa assets, equipment and goodwill) and may be required to record significant additional charge to earnings.
We have assets, goodwill and equipment on our balance sheet relating to our VISSIA MedSpa operations. Due to COVID-19’s effects on the economy, and because we are unable to predict the length of the pandemic or ultimate outcome thereof, and further due to our limited capital resources, effective on October 25, 2020, we made the decision to close both locations. Such locations remain closed through the date of this Report.
In accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles of the United States of America (“GAAP”), we review our assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. For example, we also had an impairment loss of $605,488 primarily attributable to the investment in LifeGuru, and settlement loss of $1,041,445 in connection with the common shares issued for note settlements in 2020. We had no impairment loss nor settlement loss in 2019. Goodwill of $29,689 associated with Legend Nutrition was impaired in full during the fourth quarter of 2020. Such impairments may have a significant negative effect on our balance sheet, results of operations and financial results, and could cause the value of our common stock to decline in value or become worthless.

We face numerous risks associated with our telehealth planform which only recently commenced operations.
On April 28, 2020, the Company incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary, ZipDoctor, Inc. (“ZipDoctor”) in the State of Texas. ZipDoctor plans to provide its customers with unlimited, 24/7 access to board certified physicians and licensed mental and behavioral health counselors and therapists via a newly developed, monthly subscription based online telemedicine platform. ZipDoctor’s online telemedicine platform is available to customers across the United States and offers bilingual coverage (both English and Spanish), with virtual visits taking place either via the phone or through a secured video chat platform. Zip Doctor’s telemedicine platform does not require the customer to have an existing insurance plan and does not demand or require any additional copays. ZipDoctor customers subscribe through the website and are only required to pay a low monthly fee, which is determined based on if they are an individual, a couple, or a family. There were no significant activities in ZipDoctor as of December 31, 2020. The Company launched the platform in August 2020, and has generated nominal revenues through this soft launch period. There is no significant operating history upon which to base any assumption as to the likelihood that our telemedicine platform will prove successful, and we may never achieve operations or profitable operations. Our telehealth platform also faces the following risks, any one of which may significantly negatively affect our operations, results of operations, and cash flows and could cause the value of our common stock to decline in value:
● Our telehealth platform could be adversely affected by legal challenges or by actions restricting our ability of our health providers to provide services in certain jurisdictions;
● We will be dependent on the relationships of our partners with health care professionals;
● Evolving government regulations may require increased costs or adversely affect our results of operations;
● The market for telehealth services is new and if it does not develop as we forecast or develops more slowly than we expect our growth may be harmed;
● The market for telehealth services is competitive and we compete with multiple competitors which have more resources and funding than we have and a more well-known brand name;
● Economic uncertainty or downturns, particularly as it impacts particular industries, could adversely affect our business and operating results; and
● We will be entirely dependent on the infrastructure and operations of our partner to operate our telehealth platform and such infrastructure and operations are completely outside of our control.
Our independent registered public accounting firm has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Our historical financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern. Our independent registered public accounting firm has issued a report on our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, that included an explanatory paragraph referring to our recurring operating losses and expressing substantial doubt in our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to obtain additional equity financing or other capital, attain further operating efficiencies, reduce expenditures, and, ultimately, generate revenue. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. However, if adequate funds are not available to us when we need it, we will be required to curtail our operations which would, in turn, further raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The doubt regarding our potential ability to continue as a going concern may adversely affect our ability to obtain new financing on reasonable terms or at all. Additionally, if we are unable to continue as a going concern, our stockholders may lose some or all of their investment in the Company.
We depend heavily on our Chief Executive Officer, and the loss of his services could harm our business.
Our future business and results of operations depend in significant part upon the continued contributions of our senior management personnel, which currently consists solely of our Chief Executive Officer, Jacob D. Cohen. If we lose his services or if he fails to perform in his current position, or if we are not able to attract and retain skilled personnel as needed, our business could suffer. Significant turnover in our senior management could significantly deplete our institutional knowledge held by our existing senior management team. We depend on the skills and abilities of these key personnel in managing the operations of our medical spas, product development, marketing and sales aspects of our business, any part of which could be harmed by turnover in the future.
Because we do not have an audit or compensation committee, shareholders will have to rely on the entire board of directors to perform these functions.
We do not have an audit or compensation committee comprised of independent directors. Indeed, we do not have any audit or compensation committee, nor any independent directors. These functions are performed by the board of directors as a whole (currently consisting solely of Jacob D. Cohen, our sole director). Thus, there is a potential conflict in that board members who are also part of management will participate in discussions concerning management compensation and audit issues that may affect management decisions. Such conflicts of interest will be exacerbated until such time as we appoint additional directors, and during such period that Jacob D. Cohen serves as our sole director.

We expect to face intense competition, often from companies with greater resources and experience than we have.
The health, wellness, construction, and mentoring/life coach industries are highly competitive and subject to rapid change. The industries continue to expand and evolve as an increasing number of competitors and potential competitors enter the market. Many of these competitors and potential competitors have substantially greater financial, technological, managerial and research and development resources and experience than we have. Some of these competitors and potential competitors have more experience than we have in the development of health and wellness services and products. In addition, our services and products compete with service and product offerings from large and well-established companies that have greater marketing and sales experience and capabilities than we or our collaboration partners have. If we are unable to compete successfully, we may be unable to grow and sustain our revenue.
We are growing the size of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing any growth we may achieve.
As of the date of this Report, we have six full-time employees. As our development and commercialization plans and strategies develop, we expect to need additional development, managerial, operational, sales, marketing, financial, accounting, legal, and other resources. Future growth would impose significant added responsibilities on members of management. Our management may not be able to accommodate those added responsibilities, and our failure to do so could prevent us from effectively managing future growth, if any, and successfully growing our company.
We engage in transactions with related parties and such transactions present possible conflicts of interest that could have an adverse effect on us.
We have entered, and may continue to enter, into transactions with related parties for financing, corporate, business development and operational services, as detailed herein. Such transactions may not have been entered into on an arm’s-length basis, and we may have achieved more or less favorable terms because such transactions were entered into with our related parties. This could have a material effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. The details of certain of these transactions are set forth under “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions”. Such conflicts could cause an individual in our management to seek to advance his or her economic interests or the economic interests of certain related parties above ours. Further, the appearance of conflicts of interest created by related party transactions could impair the confidence of our investors. Such conflicts of interest will likely be greater until such time as we are able to appoint new directors, as we currently have only one member of our board of directors, Jacob D. Cohen.
We operate our business through many locations, and if we are unable to effectively oversee all of these locations, our business reputation and operating results could be materially adversely affected.
Because we operate at various different locations throughout Texas, we are subject to risks related to our ability to oversee these locations. If in the future we are unable to effectively oversee our locations, our results of operations could be materially adversely affected, we could lose customers, we could lose control of inventory and other assets, and our business could be materially adversely affected.

We have identified material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting. If not remediated, our failure to establish and maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting could result in material misstatements in our financial statements and a failure to meet our reporting and financial obligations, each of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and the trading price of our common stock.
Maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and effective disclosure controls and procedures are necessary for us to produce reliable financial statements. As reported under “Controls and Procedures”, as of December 31, 2020 we determined that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. Separately, management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020 and determined that such internal control over financial reporting was not effective as a result of such assessment.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. A control deficiency exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis.
Maintaining effective disclosure controls and procedures and effective internal control over financial reporting are necessary for us to produce reliable financial statements and the Company is committed to remediating its material weaknesses in such controls as promptly as possible. However, there can be no assurance as to when these material weaknesses will be remediated or that additional material weaknesses will not arise in the future. Any failure to remediate the material weaknesses, or the development of new material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, could result in material misstatements in our financial statements and cause us to fail to meet our reporting and financial obligations, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and the trading price of our common stock, and/or result in litigation against us or our management. In addition, even if we are successful in strengthening our controls and procedures, those controls and procedures may not be adequate to prevent or identify irregularities or facilitate the fair presentation of our financial statements or our periodic reports filed with the SEC.
We could be adversely affected if any of our significant customers default in their obligations to us.
Defaults by any of our customers could have a significant adverse effect on our revenues, profitability and cash flow. Our customers may in the future default on their obligations to us due to bankruptcy, lack of liquidity, operational failure or other reasons deriving from the current general economic environment. If a customer defaults on its obligations to us, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
The employment agreement of Mr. Jacob Cohen, our sole officer and director, provides for him to receive profits directly from medical spas which he manages, on top of his annual salary, and provide for the payment of certain severance payments upon termination.
Mr. Jacob D. Cohen’s employment agreement provides for him to receive 25% of the net profits from each medical spa managed by him. “Net profits” means all gross sales of a medical spa, less all expenses paid during the corresponding period. The payment of the net profits as discussed above may reduce the funds available for the Company’s other initiatives and/or create a situation where such executive/manager is incentive to drive up net profits at the expense of long-term growth.
If Mr. Cohen’s employment agreement is terminated during the term of such agreement by the Company without cause (as defined in the agreement) or by Mr. Cohen for good reason (as defined in the agreement), Mr. Cohen is due a severance payment. That severance payment is equal to the compensation (including bonus) earned through the date of termination and three times (one time if less than one year remains on the employment agreement)(the “multiplier”) the base salary in effect on the date of the termination plus the average bonus received by Mr. Cohen over the prior two years and Mr. Cohen is also to be paid any bonus which he would have earned at the end of the fiscal year during which the employment is terminated (pro-rated for days worked), and is to be paid health insurance for Mr. Cohen and his family for 18 months from the date of termination (the “Severance Payments”). Also, all equity compensation due to vest in the following 12 months vests immediately. If Mr. Cohen dies while the employment agreement is in place, or the agreement is terminated due to Mr. Cohen’s disability, the Company is required to pay Mr. Cohen’s salary to his beneficiaries for a period of one year following such death, pay the pro-rated amount of any bonus due, and pay 18 months of health insurance. If a change in control (as defined in the agreement) occurs and Mr. Cohen is terminated up to one year after such change in control, Mr. Cohen is due the Severance Payments (based on a 3x multiplier) and all unvested equity awards vest immediately. The payment of severance fees could have a material adverse effect on our cash flows and results of operations.

Risks Relating to Our Construction Services
Products supplied to us and work done by subcontractors can expose us to risks that may adversely affect our business.
We plan to rely on subcontractors to perform the actual construction work associated with our construction services, and in many cases, to select and obtain building materials. Despite detailed specifications and quality control procedures, in some cases, subcontractors may use improper construction processes or defective materials. Defective products can result in the need to perform extensive repairs. The cost of complying with our warranty obligations may be significant if we are unable to recover the cost of repairs from subcontractors, materials suppliers and insurers. We may also suffer damage to our reputation, and may be exposed to possible liability, if subcontractors fail to comply with applicable laws, including laws involving things that are not within our control.
A significant amount of our revenues is due to only a small number of customers, and if we were to lose any of those customers, our results of operations would be adversely affected.
For the year ended December 31, 2020, approximately 99.9% of the Company’s revenues from continuing operations were derived from two major customers in connection with the construction contracts. For the year ended December 31, 2019, 89.7% of the Company’s revenues were derived from two major customers in connection with the construction contracts.
As a result, the majority of our revenues have historically been due to only a small number of customers, and we anticipate this trend continuing moving forward in the near term. As a result, in the event our customers do not pay us amounts owed, terminate work in progress or we are unable to find new customers moving forward, it could have a materially adverse effect on our results of operations and could force us to curtail or abandon our current business operations.
Natural disasters and severe weather conditions could delay our construction services and increase costs.
Our construction operations are conducted in areas that are subject to natural disasters, including hurricanes, earthquakes, droughts, floods, wildfires and severe weather. The occurrence of natural disasters or severe weather conditions may delay construction activities, increase costs by damaging inventories and lead to shortages of labor and materials in areas affected by the disasters. Any natural disasters or similar events effecting our construction operations may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
We are subject to warranty and construction defect claims arising in the ordinary course of business, which may lead to additional reserves or expenses.
Warranty and construction defect claims are common in the construction industry and can be costly. Certain claims may not be covered by insurance or may exceed applicable coverage limits, which could be material to our financial results.
Risks relating to our telehealth operations
Our telehealth business could be adversely affected by ongoing legal challenges to our business model or by new state actions restricting our ability to provide the full range of our services in certain states.
Our ability to conduct planned business operations in each state is dependent upon the state’s treatment of medical spas under such state’s laws, and rules and policies governing the practice of physician supervised services, which are subject to changing political, regulatory and other influences.
22 |
We may become subject to medical liability claims, which could cause us to incur significant expenses and may require us to pay significant damages if not covered by insurance.
Our wellness business entails the risk of medical liability claims. Successful medical liability claims could result in substantial damage awards that exceed the limits of our insurance coverage. Any claims made against us that are not fully covered by insurance could be costly to defend against, result in substantial damage awards against us and divert the attention of our management and our physicians from our operations, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, any claims may adversely affect our business or reputation.
Our use and disclosure of personally identifiable information, including health information, is subject to federal and state privacy and security regulations, and our failure to comply with those regulations or to adequately secure the information we hold could result in significant liability or reputational harm and, in turn, a material adverse effect on our client base and revenue.
Numerous state and federal laws and regulations govern the collection, dissemination, use, privacy, confidentiality, security, availability and integrity of personally identifiable information, or PII, including protected health information, or PHI. These laws and regulations include the Health Information Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, as amended by the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH, and their implementing regulations (referred to collectively as HIPAA). HIPAA establishes a set of basic national privacy and security standards for the protection of PHI. HIPAA requires us to develop and maintain policies and procedures with respect to PHI that is used or disclosed, including the adoption of administrative, physical and technical safeguards to protect such information. HIPAA imposes mandatory penalties for certain violations. Penalties for violations of HIPAA and its implementing regulations start at $100 per violation and are not to exceed $50,000 per violation, subject to a cap of $1.5 million for violations of the same standard in a single calendar year. However, a single breach incident can result in violations of multiple standards. HIPAA also authorizes state attorneys general to file suit on behalf of their residents. Courts are able to award damages, costs and attorneys’ fees related to violations of HIPAA in such cases. While HIPAA does not create a private right of action allowing individuals to sue us in civil court for violations of HIPAA, its standards have been used as the basis for duty of care in state civil suits such as those for negligence or recklessness in the misuse or breach of PHI. In addition, HIPAA mandates that the Secretary of Health and Human Services, or HHS, conduct periodic compliance audits of HIPAA covered entities or business associates for compliance with the HIPAA Privacy and Security Standards. It also tasks HHS with establishing a methodology whereby harmed individuals who were the victims of breaches of unsecured PHI may receive a percentage of the Civil Monetary Penalty fine paid by the violator. HIPAA further requires that patients be notified of any unauthorized acquisition, access, use or disclosure of their unsecured PHI that compromises the privacy or security of such information, with certain exceptions related to unintentional or inadvertent use or disclosure by employees or authorized individuals. HIPAA specifies that such notifications must be made “without unreasonable delay and in no case later than 60 calendar days after discovery of the breach.” If a breach affects 500 patients or more, it must be reported to HHS without unreasonable delay, and HHS will post the name of the breaching entity on its public web site. Breaches affecting 500 patients or more in the same state or jurisdiction must also be reported to the local media. If a breach involves fewer than 500 people, the covered entity must record it in a log and notify HHS at least annually.
Numerous other federal and state laws protect the confidentiality, privacy, availability, integrity and security of PII, including PHI. These laws in many cases are more restrictive than, and may not be preempted by, the HIPAA rules and may be subject to varying interpretations by courts and government agencies, creating complex compliance issues for us and our clients and potentially exposing us to additional expense, adverse publicity and liability.
Because of the extreme sensitivity of the PII we store and transmit, the security features of our technology platform are very important. If our security measures are breached or fail, unauthorized persons may be able to obtain access to sensitive client data, including HIPAA-regulated PHI. As a result, our reputation could be severely damaged, adversely affecting client confidence. In addition, we could face litigation, damages for contract breach, penalties and regulatory actions for violation of HIPAA and other applicable laws or regulations and significant costs for remediation, notification to individuals and for measures to prevent future occurrences. Any potential security breach could also result in increased costs associated with liability for stolen assets or information, repairing system damage that may have been caused by such breaches, incentives offered to clients in an effort to maintain our business relationships after a breach and implementing measures to prevent future occurrences, including organizational changes, deploying additional personnel and protection technologies, training employees and engaging third-party experts and consultants.

Our failure to attract and retain physicians and nurse practitioners in a competitive labor market could limit our ability to execute our growth strategy, resulting in a slower rate of growth.
Our wellness business depends on our ability to continue to recruit and retain a sufficient number of qualified licensed doctors and nurses. Although we believe we have an effective recruitment process, there is no assurance that we will be able to secure arrangements with sufficient numbers of licensed doctors and nurses or retain the services of such practitioners. If we experience delays or shortages in obtaining access to qualified physicians and nurses, we would be unable to expand our services and operations, resulting in reduced revenues.
If our physicians develop a poor reputation, our operations and revenues would suffer.
The success of our wellness business is dependent upon quality medical services being rendered by our physicians. As the patient-physician relationship involves inherent trust and confidence, any negative publicity, whether from civil litigation, allegations of criminal misconduct, or forfeiture of medical licenses, with respect to any of our physicians and/or our facilities could adversely affect our results of operations.
If we fail to comply with government laws and regulations it could have a materially adverse effect on our business.
The health care industry is subject to extensive federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to licensure, conduct of operations, ownership of facilities, addition of facilities and services, payment for services and prices for services that are extremely complex and for which, in many instances, the industry does not have the benefit of significant regulatory or judicial interpretation. We exercise care in structuring our arrangements with physicians and other referral sources to comply in all material respects with applicable laws. We will also take such laws into account when planning future centers, marketing and other activities, and expect that our operations will be in compliance with applicable law. The laws, rules and regulations described above are complex and subject to interpretation. In the event of a determination that we are in violation of such laws, rules or regulations, or if further changes in the regulatory framework occur, any such determination or changes could have a material adverse effect on our business. There can be no assurance however that we will not be found in noncompliance in any particular situation.
Regulatory and Reporting Risks
We are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which are expensive and subject us to potential liability.
We are a public reporting company in the United States and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and other federal securities laws, and the compliance obligations of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The costs of preparing and filing annual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders causes our expenses to be higher than they would be if we remained a privately-held company. We could also be subject to sanctions or deregistration if we fail to keep up with or run afoul of our reporting obligations.
Our compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and SEC rules concerning internal controls is time consuming, difficult and costly.
Because we are a reporting company with the SEC, we must comply with Sarbanes-Oxley Act and SEC rules concerning internal controls. It is time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. In order to expand our operations, we will need to hire additional financial reporting, internal control, and other finance staff in order to develop and implement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures.

Risks Relating to Our Common Stock and Securities
Shareholders who hold unregistered shares of our common stock will be subject to resale restrictions pursuant to Rule 144, if and when available, due to the fact that we are deemed to be a former “shell company”.
Pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Rule 144”), a “shell company” is defined as a company that has no or nominal operations; and, either no or nominal assets; assets consisting solely of cash and cash equivalents; or assets consisting of any amount of cash and cash equivalents and nominal other assets. While we do not believe that we are currently a “shell company”, we were previously a “shell company” and as such are deemed to be a former “shell company” pursuant to Rule 144, and as such, sales of our securities pursuant to Rule 144 may not be able to be made if we are not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, and have filed all of our required periodic reports for at least the previous one year period prior to any sale pursuant to Rule 144; and a period of at least twelve months has elapsed from the date “Form 10 information” has been filed with the Commission reflecting the Company’s status as a non-”shell company” (which Form 10 information was filed by the Company in August 2019). Although to date we have complied with the requirement of Rule 144 as related to “shell companies”, our status as a former “shell company” could prevent us from raising additional funds, engaging consultants, and using our securities to pay for any acquisitions in the future (although none are currently planned).
We have various outstanding convertible notes which are convertible into shares of our common stock at a discount to market.
As of December 31, 2020, we owed approximately $529,250 under various convertible promissory notes. The conversion prices of the convertible notes initially vary from between [60% to 61%] of the market value of our common stock, subject in many cases to adjustments to the conversion prices upon defaults and anti-dilution and other rights which may result in such conversion prices declining. As a result, any conversion of the convertible notes and sale of shares of common stock issuable in connection with the conversion thereof may cause the value of our common stock to decline in value, as described in greater detail under the Risk Factors below. Notwithstanding the above, we hope to repay the convertible notes in full before any conversions take place.
The issuance and sale of common stock upon conversion of the convertible notes may depress the market price of our common stock.
If sequential conversions of the convertible notes and sales of such converted shares take place, the price of our common stock may decline, and as a result, the holders of the convertible notes will be entitled to receive an increasing number of shares in connection with conversions, which shares could then be sold in the market, triggering further price declines and conversions for even larger numbers of shares, to the detriment of our investors. The shares of common stock which the convertible notes are convertible into may be sold without restriction pursuant to Rule 144. As a result, the sale of these shares may adversely affect the market price, if any, of our common stock.
In addition, the common stock issuable upon conversion of the convertible notes may represent overhang that may also adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Overhang occurs when there is a greater supply of a company’s stock in the market than there is demand for that stock. When this happens the price of the company’s stock will decrease, and any additional shares which shareholders attempt to sell in the market will only further decrease the share price. The convertible notes will be convertible into shares of our common stock at a discount to market as described above, and such discount to market provides the holders with the ability to sell their common stock at or below market and still make a profit. In the event of such overhang, the note holders will have an incentive to sell their common stock as quickly as possible. If the share volume of our common stock cannot absorb the discounted shares, then the value of our common stock will likely decrease. Notwithstanding the above, we hope to repay the convertible notes in full before any conversions take place.
The issuance of common stock upon conversion of our outstanding convertible notes will cause immediate and substantial dilution.
The issuance of common stock upon conversion of the convertible notes will result in immediate and substantial dilution to the interests of other stockholders since the holders of the convertible notes may ultimately receive and sell the full number of shares issuable in connection with the conversion of such convertible notes. Although certain of the convertible notes may not be converted if such conversion would cause the holders thereof to own more than 4.99% or 9.99% of our outstanding common stock, this restriction does not prevent the holders of the convertible notes subject to such restrictions from converting some of their holdings, selling those shares, and then converting the rest of its holdings, while still staying below the 4.99%/9.99% limit. In this way, the holders of the convertible notes could sell more than any applicable ownership limit while never actually holding more shares than the applicable limits allow. If the holders of the convertible notes choose to do this, it will cause substantial dilution to the then holders of our common stock.
25 |
The continuously adjustable conversion price feature of the convertible notes could require us to issue a substantially greater number of shares, which may adversely affect the market price of our common stock and cause dilution to our existing stockholders.
Our existing stockholders will experience substantial dilution upon any conversion of the convertible notes. The convertible notes are convertible into shares of common stock at a conversion price equal to a discount to the market value of our common stock as described above. As a result, the number of shares issuable could prove to be significantly greater in the event of a decrease in the trading price of our common stock, which decrease would cause substantial dilution to our existing stockholders. As sequential conversions and sales take place, the price of our common stock may decline, and if so, the holders of the convertible notes would be entitled to receive an increasing number of shares, which could then be sold, triggering further price declines and conversions for even larger numbers of shares, which would cause additional dilution to our existing stockholders and would likely cause the value of our common stock to decline.
We could face significant penalties for our failure to comply with the terms of our outstanding convertible notes.
Our various convertible notes contain positive and negative covenants and customary events of default including requiring us in many cases to timely file SEC reports. In the event we fail to timely file our SEC reports in the future, or any other events of defaults occur under the notes, we could face significant penalties and/or liquidated damages and/or the conversion price of such notes could be adjusted downward significantly, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition, or cause any investment in the Company to decline in value or become worthless.
The issuance and sale of common stock upon exercise of outstanding warrants may cause substantial dilution to existing stockholders and may also depress the market price of our common stock.
We have outstanding warrants to purchase a total of 6,750,000 shares of common stock exercisable at various prices with (i) warrants to purchase 2,250,000 shares of common stock exercisable at $0.20 per share, (ii) warrants to purchase 2,250,000 shares of common stock exercisable at $0.35 per share, and (iii) warrants to purchase 2,250,000 shares of common stock exercisable at $0.50 per share. All of the warrants may be exercised via cashless exercise in the event that the shares underlying the warrants are not registered within 180 days of January 6, 2021, provided that such shares of common stock underlying the warrants are currently registered. The warrants, if not exercised by such date, terminate on January 7, 2026. The warrants contain provisions limiting each Investor’s ability to exercise the warrants if such exercise would cause the Investor’s (or any affiliate of any such Investor) holdings in the Company to exceed 9.99% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock. The ownership limitation does not prevent such holder from exercising some of the warrants, selling those shares, and then exercising the rest of the warrants, while still staying below the 9.99% limit. In this way, the holders of the Warrants could sell more than this limit while never actually holding more shares than this limit allows. If the holders of the Warrants choose to do this, it will cause substantial dilution to the then holders of our common stock.
If exercises of the warrants and sales of such shares issuable upon exercise thereof take place, the price of our common stock may decline. In addition, the common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants may represent overhang that may also adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Overhang occurs when there is a greater supply of a company’s stock in the market than there is demand for that stock. When this happens the price of the company’s stock will decrease, and any additional shares which shareholders attempt to sell in the market will only further decrease the share price. If the share volume of our common stock cannot absorb shares sold by the warrant holders, then the value of our common stock will likely decrease.
26 |
The issuance of common stock upon conversion of the 6% Convertible Notes will cause immediate and substantial dilution to existing shareholders.
The 6% Convertible Notes (including accrued and unpaid interest and late fees) making up the $850,000 First Tranche Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at any time, at a rate equal to the lesser of (i) $0.50 per share and (ii) 75% of the lowest daily volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of the Company’s common stock during the seven consecutive trading days prior to the delivery of a conversion notice (the “Market Price”), but not less than 75% of the VWAP on the First Closing Date ($0.40 per share, making such initial floor price $0.30 per share). The $600,000 in Second Tranche are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a rate equal to the lesser of (1) the VWAP on the Second Closing Date ($0.2437) or (2) the Market Price, but not less than 75% of the VWAP on the Second Tranche closing date. However, if while any 6% Convertible Notes are outstanding and the daily VWAP on any of seven consecutive trading days is less than the applicable floor price(s), such floor price(s) are reduced (but not increased) to 75% of the VWAP on the seventh trading day. Although the 6% Convertible Notes may not be converted by holder if such conversion would cause the holder to own more than 9.99% of our outstanding common stock, this restriction does not prevent such holder from converting some of its holdings, selling those shares, and then converting the rest of its holdings, while still staying below the 9.99% limit. In this way, the holders of the 6% Convertible Notes could sell more than this limit while never actually holding more shares than this limit allows. If the holders of the 6% Convertible Notes choose to do this, it will cause substantial dilution to the then holders of our common stock.
The issuance and sale of common stock upon conversion of the 6% Convertible Notes may depress the market price of our common stock.
If conversions of the 6% Convertible Notes and sales of such converted shares take place, the price of our common stock may decline. In addition, the common stock issuable upon conversion of the 6% Convertible Notes may represent overhang that may also adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Overhang occurs when there is a greater supply of a company’s stock in the market than there is demand for that stock. When this happens the price of the company’s stock will decrease, and any additional shares which shareholders attempt to sell in the market will only further decrease the share price. If the share volume of our common stock cannot absorb converted shares sold by the 6% Convertible Notes holders, then the value of our common stock will likely decrease.
We currently owe a significant amount of money under our outstanding convertible notes.
As of the date of this Report we owe approximately $759,521 under outstanding convertible and non-convertible promissory notes. We do not have sufficient funds to repay such notes and if we are unable to raise additional funds in the future to repay such amounts, which may not be available on favorable terms, if at all, such failure could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations and cause any investment in the Company to decline in value or become worthless.
The issuance of common stock upon conversion of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock will cause immediate and substantial dilution.
The issuance of common stock upon conversion of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock will result in immediate and substantial dilution to the interests of other stockholders, which will be exacerbated in the event the 1.5 million shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock are issued in the event certain milestones related to LifeGuru.me are met. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock may be converted, at the option of the holder thereof, into that number of shares of common stock of the Company as equals $1.00 divided by 90% of the average of the volume weighted average prices (“VWAP”) of the Company’s common, for the five trading days immediately preceding the date the notice of conversion is received, with any remainder rounded to the hundredths place. Although the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock holder may not receive shares of common stock exceeding 4.999% of our outstanding shares of common stock immediately after affecting such conversion, this restriction does not prevent the holder from receiving shares up to the 4.999% limit, selling those shares, and then receiving the rest of the shares it is due, in one or more tranches, while still staying below the 4.999% limit, and such limit may be increased to 9.999% with 61 days prior written notice. If the holder chooses to do this, it will cause substantial dilution to the then holders of our common stock. Additionally, the continued sale of shares issuable upon successive conversions will likely create significant downward pressure on the price of our common stock as the holder sells material amounts of our common stock over time and/or in a short period of time. This could place further downward pressure on the price of our common stock and in turn result in the holder receiving an ever-increasing number of additional shares of common stock upon conversion of its securities, and adjustments thereof, which in turn will likely lead to further dilution, reductions in the conversion price of the Series B Preferred Stock and even more downward pressure on our common stock, which could lead to our common stock becoming devalued or worthless.

We have established preferred stock which can be designated by the Company’s board of directors without shareholder approval and the board has established Series A Preferred Stock, which gives the holders majority voting power over the Company.
The Company has 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock authorized. The shares of preferred stock of the Company may be issued from time to time in one or more series, each of which shall have a distinctive designation or title as shall be determined by the board of directors of the Company (currently consisting solely of Jacob D. Cohen) prior to the issuance of any shares thereof. The preferred stock shall have such voting powers, full or limited, or no voting powers, and such preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and such qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof as adopted by the board of directors. In May 2020, we designated three shares of Series A Preferred Stock. The Series A Preferred Stock have the right, voting in aggregate, to vote on all shareholder matters equal to sixty percent (60%) of the total vote (the “Super Majority Voting Rights”), so long as such shares are held by directors of the Company. A total of one share of Series A Preferred Stock is currently outstanding and held by Jacob D. Cohen, our sole officer and director, providing him sole voting right over 60% of our voting shares.
Because the board of directors is able to designate the powers and preferences of the preferred stock without the vote of a majority of the Company’s shareholders, shareholders of the Company will have no control over what designations and preferences the Company’s preferred stock will have. The issuance of shares of preferred stock or the rights associated therewith, could cause substantial dilution to our existing shareholders. Additionally, the dilutive effect of any preferred stock which we may issue may be exacerbated given the fact that such preferred stock may have voting rights and/or other rights or preferences which could provide the preferred shareholders with substantial voting control over us and/or give those holders the power to prevent or cause a change in control, even if that change in control might benefit our shareholders (similar to the Series A Preferred Stock). As a result, the issuance of shares of preferred stock may cause the value of our securities to decrease.
Stockholders may be diluted significantly through our efforts to obtain financing and satisfy obligations through the issuance of additional shares of our common stock.
We have no committed source of financing. Wherever possible, our board of directors (currently consisting solely of Mr. Jacob D. Cohen) will attempt to use non-cash consideration to satisfy obligations. In many instances, we believe that the non-cash consideration will consist of restricted shares of our common stock. Our board of directors have authority, without action or vote of the stockholders, to issue all or part of the authorized but unissued shares of common stock and designate series of preferred stock. In addition, if a trading market develops for our common stock, we may attempt to raise capital by selling shares of our common stock (or convertible securities), possibly at a discount to market. These actions will result in dilution of the ownership interests of existing stockholders, may further dilute common stock book value, and that dilution may be material. Such issuances may also serve to enhance existing management’s ability to maintain control of the Company because the shares may be issued to parties or entities committed to supporting existing management.
Our stock price may be volatile, which may result in losses to our stockholders.
The stock markets have experienced significant price and trading volume fluctuations, and the market prices of companies quoted on the OTC Markets’ OTCQB Market, where our shares of common stock are quoted, generally have been very volatile and have experienced sharp share-price and trading-volume changes. The trading price of our common stock is likely to be volatile and could fluctuate widely in response to many of the following factors, some of which are beyond our control:
● | variations in our operating results; |
28 |
● | changes in expectations of our future financial performance, including financial estimates by securities analysts and investors; | |
● | changes in operating and stock price performance of other companies in our industry; | |
● | additions or departures of key personnel; and | |
● | future sales of our common stock. |
Domestic and international stock markets often experience significant price and volume fluctuations. These fluctuations, as well as general economic and political conditions unrelated to our performance, may adversely affect the price of our common stock. In particular, following initial public offerings, the market prices for stocks of companies often reach levels that bear no established relationship to the operating performance of these companies. These market prices are generally not sustainable and could vary widely. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a public company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been initiated.
Our common shares are thinly-traded, and in the future, may continue to be thinly-traded, and you may be unable to sell at or near ask prices or at all, if you need to sell your shares to raise money or otherwise desire to liquidate such shares.
We cannot predict the extent to which an active public market for our common stock will develop or be sustained due to a number of factors, including the fact that we are a small company that is relatively unknown to stock analysts, stock brokers, institutional investors, and others in the investment community that generate or influence sales volume, and that even if we came to the attention of such persons, they tend to be risk-averse and would be reluctant to follow an unproven company such as ours or purchase or recommend the purchase of our shares until such time as we became more seasoned and viable. As a consequence, there may be periods of several days or more when trading activity in our shares is minimal or non-existent, as compared to a seasoned issuer which has a large and steady volume of trading activity that will generally support continuous sales without an adverse effect on share price. We cannot give you any assurance that a broader or more active public trading market for our common stock will develop or be sustained, or that current trading levels will be sustained. You may be unable to sell your common stock at or above your purchase price if at all, which may result in substantial losses to you. As a consequence of this lack of liquidity, the trading of relatively small quantities of shares by our stockholders may disproportionately influence the price of those shares in either direction. The price for our shares could, for example, decline precipitously in the event that a large number of our common shares are sold on the market without commensurate demand, as compared to a seasoned issuer that could better absorb those sales without adverse impact on its share price. Secondly, an investment in us is a speculative or “risky” investment due to our lack of revenues or profits to date. As a consequence of this enhanced risk, more risk-adverse investors may, under the fear of losing all or most of their investment in the event of negative news or lack of progress, be more inclined to sell their shares on the market more quickly and at greater discounts than would be the case with the stock of a seasoned issuer.
Our common stock is likely to be subject to penny stock rules, which may make it more difficult for our stockholders to sell their common stock.
Broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks” are regulated by certain penny stock rules adopted by the SEC. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 per share. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a purchase or sale of a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver to the customer a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. In addition, the penny stock rules generally require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock the broker-dealer make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for a stock that becomes subject to the penny stock rules.
29 |
Our Chief Executive Officer and sole director holds majority voting control over the Company.
Our sole officer and director Jacob D. Cohen, beneficially owns approximately 27.8% of our outstanding common stock and also have the ability to vote in aggregate, a separate 60% of our voting stock pursuant to his ownership of the one outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock, which gives him control over 71.1% of our voting securities. As a result, Mr. Cohen has the ability to influence matters affecting our stockholders and will therefore exercise control in determining the outcome of all corporate transactions or other matters, including the election of directors, mergers, consolidations, the sale of all or substantially all of our assets, and also the power to prevent or cause a change in control. Any investor who purchases shares will be a minority stockholder and as such will have little to no say in the direction of the Company and the election of directors. Additionally, it will be difficult if not impossible for investors to remove Mr. Cohen as a director, which will mean he will remain in control of who serves as officers of the Company as well as whether any changes are made in the board of directors. As a potential investor in the Company, you should keep in mind that even if you own shares of the Company’s common stock and wish to vote them at annual or special stockholder meetings, your shares will likely have little effect on the outcome of corporate decisions. Because Mr. Cohen controls such vote, investors may find it difficult to replace our management if they disagree with the way our business is being operated. Additionally, the interests of Mr. Cohen may differ from the interests of the other stockholders and thus result in corporate decisions that are averse to other stockholders.
General Risk Factors
Our acquisitions may expose us to unknown liabilities.
Because we have acquired, and expect generally to acquire, all (or a majority of) the outstanding securities of certain of our acquisition targets, our investment in those companies is or will be subject to all of their liabilities other than their respective debts which we paid or will pay at the time of the acquisitions. If there are unknown liabilities or other obligations, our business could be materially affected. We may also experience issues relating to internal controls over financial reporting that could affect our ability to comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, or that could affect our ability to comply with other applicable laws.
We may have difficulty obtaining future funding sources, if needed, and we may have to accept terms that would adversely affect stockholders.
We will need to raise funds from additional financing in the future to complete our business plan and may need to raise additional funding in the future to support our operations. We have no commitments for any financing and any financing commitments may result in dilution to our existing stockholders. We may have difficulty obtaining additional funding, and we may have to accept terms that would adversely affect our stockholders. For example, the terms of any future financings may impose restrictions on our right to declare dividends or on the manner in which we conduct our business. Additionally, we may raise funding by issuing additional convertible notes, which if converted into shares of our common stock would dilute our then stockholders’ interests. Lending institutions or private investors may impose restrictions on a future decision by us to make capital expenditures, acquisitions or significant asset sales. If we are unable to raise additional funds, we may be forced to curtail or even abandon our business plan.
If we make any acquisitions, they may disrupt or have a negative impact on our business.
If we make acquisitions in the future, funding permitting, which may not be available on favorable terms, if at all, we could have difficulty integrating the acquired company’s assets, personnel and operations with our own. We do not anticipate that any acquisitions or mergers we may enter into in the future would result in a change of control of the Company. In addition, the key personnel of the acquired business may not be willing to work for us. We cannot predict the effect expansion may have on our core business. Regardless of whether we are successful in making an acquisition, the negotiations could disrupt our ongoing business, distract our management and employees and increase our expenses. In addition to the risks described above, acquisitions are accompanied by a number of inherent risks, including, without limitation, the following:
● | the difficulty of integrating acquired products, services or operations; |
30 |
● | the potential disruption of the ongoing businesses and distraction of our management and the management of acquired companies; | |
● | difficulties in maintaining uniform standards, controls, procedures and policies; | |
● | the potential impairment of relationships with employees and customers as a result of any integration of new management personnel; | |
● | the potential inability or failure to achieve additional sales and enhance our customer base through cross-marketing of the products to new and existing customers; | |
● | the effect of any government regulations which relate to the business acquired; | |
● | potential unknown liabilities associated with acquired businesses or product lines, or the need to spend significant amounts to retool, reposition or modify the marketing and sales of acquired products or operations, or the defense of any litigation, whether or not successful, resulting from actions of the acquired company prior to our acquisition; and | |
● | potential expenses under the labor, environmental and other laws of various jurisdictions. |
Our business could be severely impaired if and to the extent that we are unable to succeed in addressing any of these risks or other problems encountered in connection with an acquisition, many of which cannot be presently identified. These risks and problems could disrupt our ongoing business, distract our management and employees, increase our expenses and adversely affect our results of operations.
Current global financial conditions have been characterized by increased volatility which could negatively impact our business, prospects, liquidity and financial condition.
Current global financial conditions and recent market events have been characterized by increased volatility and the resulting tightening of the credit and capital markets has reduced the amount of available liquidity and overall economic activity. We cannot guaranty that debt or equity financing, the ability to borrow funds or cash generated by operations will be available or sufficient to meet or satisfy our initiatives, objectives or requirements. Our inability to access sufficient amounts of capital on terms acceptable to us for our operations will negatively impact our business, prospects, liquidity and financial condition.
We may expend our limited resources to pursue particular products, services or locations and may fail to capitalize on products, locations or services that may be more profitable or for which there is a greater likelihood of success.
Because we have limited financial and managerial resources, we must focus our efforts on particular service programs, products and locations. As a result, we may forego or delay pursuit of opportunities with other services, products or locations that later prove to have greater commercial potential. Our resource allocation decisions may cause us to fail to capitalize on viable commercial products or profitable market opportunities. Any such failure could result in missed opportunities and/or our focus on products, services or locations with low market potential, which would harm our business and financial condition.
Our ability to service our indebtedness will depend on our ability to generate cash in the future.
Our ability to make payments on our indebtedness will depend on our ability to generate cash in the future. Our ability to generate cash is subject to general economic and market conditions and financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control. Our business may not generate sufficient cash to fund our working capital requirements, capital expenditure, debt service and other liquidity needs, which could result in our inability to comply with financial and other covenants contained in our debt agreements, our being unable to repay or pay interest on our indebtedness, and our inability to fund our other liquidity needs. If we are unable to service our debt obligations, fund our other liquidity needs and maintain compliance with our financial and other covenants, we could be forced to curtail our operations, our creditors could accelerate our indebtedness and exercise other remedies and we could be required to pursue one or more alternative strategies, such as selling assets or refinancing or restructuring our indebtedness. However, such alternatives may not be feasible or adequate.
31 |
Our potential for rapid growth and our entry into new markets make it difficult for us to evaluate our current and future business prospects, and we may be unable to effectively manage any growth associated with these new markets, which may increase the risk of your investment and could harm our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow.
Our entry into the rapidly growing health, wellness, construction and mentoring/life coaching market may place a significant strain on our resources and increase demands on our executive management, personnel and systems, and our operational, administrative and financial resources may be inadequate. We may also not be able to effectively manage any expanded operations, or achieve planned growth on a timely or profitable basis, particularly if the number of customers using our technology significantly increases or their demands and needs change as our business expands. If we are unable to manage expanded operations effectively, we may experience operating inefficiencies, the quality of our products and services could deteriorate, and our business and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
If we are unable to develop and maintain our brand and reputation for our service and product offerings, our business and prospects could be materially harmed.
Our business and prospects depend, in part, on developing and then maintaining and strengthening our brand and reputation in the markets we serve. If problems arise with our products or services, our brand and reputation could be diminished. If we fail to develop, promote and maintain our brand and reputation successfully, our business and prospects could be materially harmed.
We may not maintain sufficient insurance coverage for the risks associated with our business operations.
Risks associated with our business and operations include, but are not limited to, claims for wrongful acts committed by our officers, directors, and other representatives, the loss of intellectual property rights, the loss of key personnel, risks posed by natural disasters and risks of lawsuits from customers who are injured from or dissatisfied with our services. Any of these risks may result in significant losses. We cannot provide any assurance that our insurance coverage is sufficient to cover any losses that we may sustain, or that we will be able to successfully claim our losses under our insurance policies on a timely basis or at all. If we incur any loss not covered by our insurance policies, or the compensated amount is significantly less than our actual loss or is not timely paid, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends.
We presently do not anticipate that we will pay any dividends on any of our capital stock in the foreseeable future. The payment of dividends, if any, would be contingent upon our revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements, and general financial condition. The payment of any dividends will be within the discretion of our board of directors. We presently intend to retain all earnings, if any, to implement our business plan; accordingly, we do not anticipate the declaration of any dividends in the foreseeable future.
Any failure to protect our intellectual property rights could impair our ability to protect our technology and our brand.
Our success depends in part on our ability to enforce our intellectual property and other proprietary rights. We rely upon a combination of trademark and trade secret laws, as well as license and other contractual provisions, to protect our intellectual property and other proprietary rights. These laws, procedures and restrictions provide only limited protection and any of our intellectual property rights may be challenged, invalidated, circumvented, infringed or misappropriated. To the extent that our intellectual property and other proprietary rights are not adequately protected, third parties may gain access to our proprietary information, develop and market solutions similar to ours or use trademarks similar to ours, each of which could materially harm our business. The failure to adequately protect our intellectual property and other proprietary rights could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

For all of the foregoing reasons and others set forth herein, an investment in our securities in involves a high degree of risk.

In the ordinary course of business, the Company may become a party to lawsuits involving various matters. The impact and outcome of litigation, if any, is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm its business.
Such current litigation or other legal proceedings are described in, and incorporated by reference in, this “Item 3. Legal Proceedings” of this Annual Report on Form 10-K from, “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in “Note 17. Uncertainties”. The Company believes the ultimate resolution of any such current proceeding will not have a material adverse effect on our continued financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, assessment of the current litigation or other legal claims could change in light of the discovery of facts not presently known to the Company or by judges, juries or other finders of fact, which are not in accord with management’s evaluation of the possible liability or outcome of such litigation or claims.
Additionally, the outcome of litigation is inherently uncertain. If one or more legal matters were resolved against the Company in a reporting period for amounts in excess of management’s expectations, the Company’s financial condition and operating results for that reporting period could be materially adversely affected.

Dividends
We have never paid any cash dividends on our common stock. We currently anticipate that we will retain all future earnings for use in our business. Consequently, we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. The payment of dividends in the future will depend upon our results of operations, as well as our short-term and long-term cash availability, working capital, working capital needs, and other factors as determined by our board of directors (currently consisting solely of Jacob D. Cohen). Currently, except as may be provided by applicable laws, there are no contractual or other restrictions on our ability to pay dividends if we were to decide to declare and pay them.
Description of Capital Stock
Our authorized capital stock consists of 195,000,000 shares of common stock with a $0.0001 par value per share, and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a $0.0001 par value per share.

The following is a summary of the material provisions of the common stock and preferred stock provided for in our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws. For additional detail about our capital stock, please refer to our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws.
Common Stock
Voting Rights. Each share of our common stock is entitled to one vote on all stockholder matters. Shares of our common stock do not possess any cumulative voting rights.
Except for the election of directors, if a quorum is present, an action on a matter is approved if it receives the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares of capital stock present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the matter, unless otherwise required by applicable law, Nevada law, our Articles of Incorporation, as amended or Bylaws, as amended. The election of directors will be determined by a plurality of the votes cast in respect of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote, meaning that the nominees with the greatest number of votes cast, even if less than a majority, will be elected. The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of common stock are subject to, and may be impacted by, the rights of the holders of shares of any series of preferred stock that we have designated, or may designate and issue in the future.

Dividend Rights. Each share of our common stock is entitled to equal dividends and distributions per share with respect to the common stock when, as and if declared by our board of directors, subject to any preferential or other rights of any outstanding preferred stock.
Liquidation and Dissolution Rights. Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, our common stock will be entitled to receive pro rata on a share-for-share basis, the assets available for distribution to the stockholders after payment of liabilities and payment of preferential and other amounts, if any, payable on any outstanding preferred stock.
Fully Paid Status. All outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
Other Matters. No holder of any shares of our common stock has a preemptive right to subscribe for any of our securities, nor are any shares of our common stock subject to redemption or convertible into other securities.
Preferred Stock
On May 18, 2020, the board of directors of the Company approved the filing of (a) an Amended and Restated Certificate of Designation of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock” and the “Series A Designation”); and (b) an Amended and Restated Certificate of Designation of the Company’s Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock” and the “Series B Designation”), with the Secretary of State of Nevada, which designations were filed with, and became effective with, the Secretary of State of Nevada on the same date. The Series A Designation designated three shares of Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Designation designated 2,000,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock.
The Series A Designation provides for the Series A Preferred Stock to have the following rights:
Dividend Rights. The Series A Preferred Stock do not accrue dividends.
Liquidation Preference. The Series A Preferred Stock have no liquidation preference.
Conversion Rights. The Series A Preferred Stock have no conversion rights.
Voting Rights. For so long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock remain issued and outstanding, the holders thereof, voting separately as a class, have the right to vote on all shareholder matters (including, but not limited to at every meeting of the stockholders of the Company and upon any action taken by stockholders of the Company with or without a meeting) equal to sixty percent (60%) of the total vote (the “Total Series A Vote” and the “Voting Rights”). For example, if there are 10,000 shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding at the time of a shareholder vote, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock, voting separately as a class, will have the right to vote an aggregate of 15,000 shares, out of a total number of 25,000 shares voting.
Additionally, so long as Series A Preferred Stock is outstanding, the Company shall not, without the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66-2/3% of all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, voting separately as a class (i) amend, alter or repeal any provision of the Articles of Incorporation or the Bylaws of the Company so as to adversely affect the designations, preferences, limitations and relative rights of the Series A Preferred Stock, (ii) effect any reclassification of the Series A Preferred Stock, (iii) designate any additional series of preferred stock, the designation of which adversely effects the rights, privileges, preferences or limitations of the Series A Preferred Stock; or (iv) amend, alter or repeal any provision of the Series A Designation (except in connection with certain non-material technical amendments).
Notwithstanding the above, no shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by any person who is not a then member of the board of directors of the Company (each a “Non-Director Holder”), shall have any Voting Rights and the Voting Rights of all other shares of Series A Preferred Stock (including, but not limited to the Total Series A Vote) shall be calculated without regard to, and without taking into account, the shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by such Non-Director Holder.
38 |
Redemption Right. The Company has the option in its sole discretion, at any time, with the majority consent or approval of the board of directors of the Company, to redeem any outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock of the Company held by any Non-Director Holder, by paying the Non-Director Holder(s) a redemption price of $1.00 per share for each such Series A Preferred Stock shares redeemed (the “Redemption Amount”, and each a “Redemption”). The payment by the Company to the Non-Director Holder (at such Non-Director Holder’s address of record) of the Redemption Amount in connection with a Redemption automatically results in the cancellation, termination and invalidation of any outstanding Series A Preferred Stock held by a Non-Director Holder or his, her or its assigns.
Purchase Right. In the event the Company is legally prohibited from exercising the redemption right discussed above, any one or more of the other holders of the Series A Preferred Stock, other than any Non-Director Holder(s) (the “Director Holders”), have the option, exercisable in their sole discretion, to purchase their pro rata share of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by any Non-Director Holder(s) for $1.00 per share of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Purchase Amount”, and the “Purchase”). The payment by the Director Holder(s) of the Series A Preferred Stock to the Non-Director Holder of the Purchase Amount automatically, and without any required action by the Director Holder(s) or the Non-Director Holder, results in the transfer of the rights to, and ownership of, such Series A Preferred Stock held by a Non-Director Holder or his, her or its assigns, to the Director Holder(s), pro rata with their payment of the Purchase Amount.
Protective Provisions. Subject to the rights of series of preferred stock which may from time to time come into existence, so long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Company cannot without first obtaining the approval (by written consent, as provided by law) of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, voting together as a class:

(b) Increase or decrease the total number of authorized or designated shares of Series A Preferred Stock;
(c) Effect an exchange, reclassification, or cancellation of all or a part of the Series A Preferred Stock;
(d) Effect an exchange, or create a right of exchange, of all or part of the shares of another class of shares into shares of Series A Preferred Stock; or
(e) Alter or change the rights, preferences or privileges of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock so as to affect adversely the shares of such series, including the rights set forth in the Series A Designation.

Series B Convertible Preferred Stock
The Series B Designation provides for the Series B Preferred Stock to have the following rights:
Dividend Rights. The Series B Preferred Stock does not accrue any dividends, but the Series B Preferred Stock holders are entitled to share in dividends paid to the holders of the Company’s common stock to the same extent that such holders would have received such dividends had they converted the Series B Preferred Stock into common stock pursuant to the conversion rights discussed below.

Notwithstanding the above, at no time may the Series B Preferred Stock be converted into shares of our common stock by any holder, if such conversion would result in such holder thereof and its affiliates owning an aggregate of in excess of 4.999% of the then outstanding shares of our common stock, which amount may be increased to 9.999% on a per holder basis, upon 61 days’ prior written notice.
Voting Rights.

(b) Re-issue any shares of Series B Preferred Stock converted pursuant to the terms of the Series B Designation;

Anti-Takeover Provisions Under the Nevada Revised Statutes
Business Combinations
Sections 78.411 to 78.444 of the Nevada revised statutes (the “NRS”) prohibit a Nevada corporation from engaging in a “combination” with an “interested stockholder” for three years following the date that such person becomes an interested stockholder and places certain restrictions on such combinations even after the expiration of the three-year period. With certain exceptions, an interested stockholder is a person or group that owns 10% or more of the corporation’s outstanding voting power (including stock with respect to which the person has voting rights and any rights to acquire stock pursuant to an option, warrant, agreement, arrangement, or understanding or upon the exercise of conversion or exchange rights) or is an affiliate or associate of the corporation and was the owner of 10% or more of such voting stock at any time within the previous three years.
40 |
A Nevada corporation may elect not to be governed by Sections 78.411 to 78.444 by a provision in its Articles of Incorporation. We do not have such a provision in our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, pursuant to which we have elected to opt out of Sections 78.411 to 78.444; therefore, these sections apply to us.
Control Shares
Nevada law also seeks to impede “unfriendly” corporate takeovers by providing in Sections 78.378 to 78.3793 of the NRS that an “acquiring person” shall only obtain voting rights in the “control shares” purchased by such person to the extent approved by the other stockholders at a meeting. With certain exceptions, an acquiring person is one who acquires or offers to acquire a “controlling interest” in the corporation, defined as one-fifth or more of the voting power. Control shares include not only shares acquired or offered to be acquired in connection with the acquisition of a controlling interest, but also all shares acquired by the acquiring person within the preceding 90 days. The statute covers not only the acquiring person but also any persons acting in association with the acquiring person.
A Nevada corporation may elect to opt out of the provisions of Sections 78.378 to 78.3793 of the NRS. We do not have a provision in our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation pursuant to which we have elected to opt out of Sections 78.378 to 78.3793; therefore, these sections do apply to us.
Removal of Directors
Section 78.335 of the NRS provides that 2/3rds of the voting power of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company are required to remove a Director from office. As such, it may be more difficult for stockholders to remove Directors due to the fact the NRS requires greater than majority approval of the stockholders for such removal.
Anti-Takeover Effects of Our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws
The following provisions of our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws could have the effect of delaying or discouraging another party from acquiring control of us and could encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to first negotiate with our board of directors:
● | no cumulative voting in the election of directors, which limits the ability of minority stockholders to elect director candidates; | |
● | the right of our board of directors to elect a director to fill a vacancy created by the expansion of the board of directors or the resignation, death or removal of a director, with our stockholders only allowed to fill such a vacancy if not filled by the board; | |
● | the ability of our board of directors to alter our Bylaws without obtaining stockholder approval; and | |
● | the requirement that a special meeting of stockholders may be called only by the board of directors, the Chairman of the Board, the President or a committee of the board of directors duly designated and whose powers and authority include the power to call meetings may call special meetings of the Company. |

Plan of Operations
The Company intends to continue to grow its business both organically and through identifying acquisition targets over the next 12 months in the technology, health and wellness space. Specifically, the Company will continue to make additional and ongoing technology enhancements to its LifeGuru life coaching platform, further develop, market and advertise its telemedicine platform, and identify strategic acquisitions that complement the Company’s vision of bridging the gap between primary care, preventative care and wellness. As these opportunities arise, the Company will determine the best method for financing its growth which may include the issuance of additional debt instruments, common stock, preferred stock, or a combination thereof, all of which may result in significant dilution to existing shareholders.

Results of Operations
Revenues
We had revenues of $5,797,629 and $1,699,886 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The significant increase in revenues in 2020 was due primarily to two construction contracts for an apartment and clubhouse rebuild at Gateway Village, Texas, and the replacement of a roof replacement at Port Arthur, Texas. The total revenues generated by such contracts totaled $7,333,264 from the 4th quarter of 2019 through the end of 2020.
We recognized revenues in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 606. A five-step process has been designed for the individual or pool of contracts to keep financial statements focused on this principle. Revenues from fixed-price and cost-plus contracts are recognized on the percentage of completion method, whereby revenues on long-term contracts were recorded on the basis of the Company’s estimates of the percentage of completion of contracts based on the ratio of actual cost incurred to total estimated costs. This cost-to-cost method was used because management considered it to be the best available measure of progress on these contacts. Revenues from cost-plus-fee contracts were recognized on the basis of costs incurred during the period plus the fee earned, measured on the cost-to-cost method. Revenues from time-and-material and rate chart contracts were recognized currently as work is performed. During the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, we recognized revenues of $5,795,629 and $1,699,886, respectively, in connection with these two construction contracts.
Cost of Revenues
We had cost of revenues of $4,852,631 and $1,519,941 during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Cost of revenues include all direct material, sub-contractor, labor and certain other direct costs, as well as those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor and fringe benefits. Selling, general, and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined. Changes in job performance, job conditions and estimated profitability may result in revisions to cost and income, which are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined. Changes in estimated job profitability resulting from job performance, job conditions, contract penalty provisions, claims, change orders, and settlements, are accounted for as changes in estimates in the current period. Claims for additional contract revenue are recognized when realization of the claim is probable and the amount can be reasonably determined.
Cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues was 83.7% and 89.4% for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Cost of revenues as a percentage of revenue in 2020 was approximately the same as 2019 due primarily to the two construction contracts for an apartment and clubhouse rebuild at Gateway Village, Texas and the replacement of a roof in Port Arthur, Texas.
Operating Expenses
General and administrative expenses were $4,329,730 and $3,044,851 during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The increase in 2020 was due primarily to stock-based compensation in the amount of $2,860,813, which was $2,303,390 in 2019, and rental expenses of $61,099 (excluding discontinued operations), which was $0 in 2019. The increase in general and administrative expenses in 2020 was also due to a new subsidiary launched in August 2020 to provide its customers with unlimited, 24/7 access to board certified physicians and licensed mental and behavioral health counselors and therapists via a newly developed, monthly subscription based online telemedicine platform.
Other Expenses
During the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, we incurred interest expense of $219,202 and $60,862, respectively, of which $3,345 and $8,995, respectively, were recorded as imputed interest in connection with related party loans.
Amortization of debt discount was $777,964 and $76,230 during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
46 |
We had a loss of $107,574 and $147,495, respectively, due to change in derivative liabilities during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019. See also “Note 12 – Derivative Liabilities”, to the notes to financial statements included herein.
We also had an impairment loss of $670,488 primarily attributable to the investment in Life Guru, an impairment loss of $631,541 attributable to discontinued operations, and settlement loss of $1,155,685 in connection with the common shares issued for notes settlement in 2020. We had neither impairment loss, nor settlement loss in 2019.
Discontinued operations
Customer traffic and demand at our VISSIA Waterway, Inc. and VISSIA McKinney MedSpa locations which were re-opened after mandatory closures associated with COVID-19 in June and August 2020, respectively, failed to rebound to pre-closure levels due to COVID-19 and the pandemic’s effects on the economy, and because we are unable to predict the length of the pandemic or ultimate outcome thereof, and further due to our limited capital resources, effective in October 2020, we made the decision to close both our VISSIA Waterway, Inc. and VISSIA McKinney locations and discontinued such operations. While such locations are closed, they are not generating any revenue; however, we are still required to pay the rent and utilities for each location and are accruing rents of approximately $4,500 and $6,100 per month at our Mckinney, TX and Woodlands, TX Vissia locations, respectively. Such continuing expenses, without corresponding revenues, may have a significant negative affect on our results of operations and cash flows. Separately, Legend Nutrition’s lease was up January 31, 2021, and the Company chose not to renew the lease, closed the store, and not continue in that line of business moving forward.
VISSIA Waterway, Inc., VISSIA McKinney LLC and Legend Nutrition (collectively referred to as “Discontinued Subsidiaries”) have been presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
The operating results for Discontinued Subsidiaries have been presented in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, as discontinued operations and are summarized below:

Net Loss
We had a net loss of $6,185,747, or $0.17 per share from continuing operations and $1,154,142 or $0.03 per share from discontinued operations during the year ended December 31, 2020, totaling an aggregate of $7,339,889 or $0.20 per share in total net loss. We had a net loss of $3,131,760, or $0.12 per share from continuing operations and $80,488 or $0.00 per share from discontinued operations during the year ended December 31, 2019, for a total net loss of $3,212,248. The increase in net loss in 2020 was primarily attributable to non-cash expenses in connection with stock-based compensation, amortization of debt discount, the change in derivative values associated with outstanding convertible debt, impairment loss due to the investment in Life Guru, and settlement loss in connection with the common shares issued for notes settlement, offset by the increase in gross profit, each as discussed above.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had total assets of $265,499 and $2,192,476, respectively, including $123,684 and $583,759 of assets of discontinued operations, respectively.
As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had total liabilities of $1,656,505 and $3,301,409, respectively, which consisted of accounts payable, accrued interest and accrued compensation in the amount of $214,697 and $156,534, respectively, rights-of-use liability of $87,653 and $0, respectively, convertible notes payable (net of discount) and loans payable to related parties and non-related parties (net of discount) in the amounts of $79,845, $55,000 and $135,392, respectively, and derivative liabilities of $517,366 and $458,745, respectively. We also had $566,552 of net liabilities related to discontinued operations. The Company had a total stockholders’ deficit of $1,391,006 and $1,108,933 as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
During the year ended December 31, 2020, net cash used in operating activities was $2,134,845, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $900,435 for the year ended December 31, 2019. Negative cash flows during the year ended December 31, 2020, were due primarily to the net loss of $7,339,889, plus the decrease in billing in excess of costs and estimated earnings by $1,657,998, partially offset by non-cash expenses, including stock-based compensation of $2,860,813, amortization of debt discount of $777,964, loss on loans settlement by $1,041,445, impairment loss of $670,488 and non-cash lease expense of $26,141. Comparatively, positive cash flows during the year ended December 31, 2019, were due primarily to non-cash expenses, including stock based compensation of $2,303,390, amortization of debt discount of $76,230, changes in derivative liabilities of $147,495, plus the increase in billing in excess of costs and estimated earnings of $1,657,998, offset by our net loss of $3,212,248.
During the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, we had cash used in investing activities of $23,901 and $103,554, respectively. The net cash used in investing activities in 2020 was solely attributable to capital expenditures for property and equipment. We paid $70,000 cash for license in 2019 in addition to the purchase of property and equipment.
During the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, net cash flows provided by financing activities were $978,669 and $443,033, respectively, primarily attributable to the proceeds from notes payable to related parties and non-related parties during the respective periods. We had proceeds of $11,919 from related party borrowings and proceeds of $960,250 from non-related party borrowings in the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to proceeds of $165,571 and $370,000, respectively, in the year ended December 31, 2019. We made repayments of $40,000 to related party borrowings and repayments of $0 to non-related party borrowings in the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to repayments of $121,038 and $6,500, respectively, in 2019. We had proceeds of $46,500 from sales of stock in 2020 (which shares of stock were sold in connection with our Regulation A offering (discussed below)), which was $35,000 in 2019.
We had cash of $25,144 and a working capital deficit of $1,439,454, as of December 31, 2020. On the short-term basis, we will be required to raise a significant amount of additional funds over the next 12 months to sustain operations and pay outstanding liabilities. On the long-term basis, we will potentially need to raise capital to grow and develop our business.
To date we have sold (a) 431,250 shares of our common stock in consideration for $181,500 in cash through our Regulation A offering, which relates to the sale of up to 10,800,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $0.50 per share; and (b) 18,916,774 shares of our common stock in exchange for the conversion of $2,634,119 in debt.
48 |
It is likely that we will require significant additional financing within the next 12 months and if we are unable to raise the needed funds on an acceptable basis, we may be forced to cease or curtail operations.

Critical Accounting Policies
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 606. The underlying principle is that the Company recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods and services to customers in an amount that they expect to be entitled to in the exchange for goods and services provided. A five-step process has been designed for the individual or pools of contracts to keep financial statements focused on this principle.
Revenues from fixed-price and cost-plus contracts are recognized on the percentage of completion method, whereby revenues on long-term contracts are recorded on the basis of the Company’s estimates of the percentage of completion of contracts based on the ratio of actual cost incurred to total estimated costs. This cost-to-cost method is used because management considers it to be the best available measure of progress on these contacts. Revenues from cost-plus-fee contracts are recognized on the basis of costs incurred during the period plus the fee earned, measured on the cost-to-cost method.
Revenues from time-and-material and rate chart contracts are recognized currently as work is performed.
Revenues from maintenance service contracts are recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract once the Company has an agreement, service has begun, the price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assumed.
Cost of revenues include all direct material, sub-contractor, labor and certain other direct costs, as well as those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor and fringe benefits. Selling, general, and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined. Changes in job performance, job conditions and estimated profitability may result in revisions to cost and income, which are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined. Changes in estimated job profitability resulting from job performance, job conditions, contract penalty provisions, claims, change orders, and settlements, are accounted for as changes in estimates in the current period. Claims for additional contract revenue are recognized when realization of the claim is probable and the amount can be reasonably determined.
The asset, “cost and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contract” represents revenues recognized in excess of amounts billed. The liability, “billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts,” represents billings in excess of revenues recognized. The Company had no such asset and liability as of December 31, 2020, since the two construction contracts for an apartment and clubhouse rebuild at Gateway Village, Texas and the replacement of a roof in Port Arthur, Texas were completed in 2020.

Fair value of financial instruments
The Company measures its financial and non-financial assets and liabilities, as well as makes related disclosures, in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), which provides guidance with respect to valuation techniques to be utilized in the determination of fair value of assets and liabilities. Approaches include, (i) the market approach (comparable market prices), (ii) the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow), and (iii) the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). ASC 820 utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:
Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.
Our financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, other receivable, inventories, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, convertible note payable, and derivative liabilities.
The carrying values of the Company’s cash, accounts receivable, other receivable, inventories, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value due to their short-term nature.
The Company’s convertible notes payable are measured at amortized cost.
The derivative liabilities are stated at their fair value as a level 3 measurement. The Company used the Lattice Model to determine the fair values of these derivative liabilities. See “Note 12 – Derivative Liabilities” of the financial statements included herein, for the Company’s assumptions used in determining the fair value of these financial instruments.
Convertible note payable
The Company accounts for convertible notes payable in accordance with the Under Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification No. 815, Derivatives and Hedging, since the conversion feature is not indexed to the Company’s stock and can’t be classified in equity. The Company allocates the proceeds received from convertible notes payable between the liability component and conversion feature component. The conversion feature that is considered embedded derivative liabilities has been recorded at their fair value as its fair value can be separated from the convertible note and its conversion is independent of the underlying note value. The Company has also recorded the resulting discount on debt related to the conversion feature and is amortizing the discount using the effective interest rate method over the life of the debt instruments.
Derivative liabilities
The Company accounts for derivative liabilities in accordance with the FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). ASC 815 requires companies to recognize all derivative liabilities in the balance sheet at fair value, and marks it to market at each reporting date with the resulting gains or losses shown in the Statement of Operations.
Stock based compensation
The Company recognizes compensation costs to employees under FASB Accounting Standards Codification 718 “Compensation - Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). Under ASC 718, companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share based compensation arrangements include stock options and warrants. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant.
50 |
On July 27, 2018, the inception date, the Company adopted ASU No. 2018-07 “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” These amendments expand the scope of Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation (which currently only includes share-based payments to employees) to include share-based payments issued to nonemployees for goods or services. Consequently, the accounting for share-based payments to nonemployees and employees will be substantially aligned.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of December 31, 2020, and December 31, 2019, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act of 1934.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Pursuant to Item 305(e) of Regulation S-K (§ 229.305(e)), the Company is not required to provide the information required by this Item as it is a “smaller reporting company,” as defined by Rule 229.10(f)(1).
ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL HOLDINGS CORP.
TABLE OF CONTENTS TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
51 |
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of American International Holdings Corp.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of American International Holdings Corp. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the Company) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2020, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 16 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company suffered a net loss from operations and has a net capital deficiency, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding those matters are also described in Note 16. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
Discontinued Operations
As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company made a decision to abandon the operations of 3 subsidiaries during the year ended December 31, 2020.
Auditing management’s evaluation of discontinued operations takes significant judgment given the fact that managements judgements on whether carrying values of assets exceeds fair value is needed to determine whether an impairment is necessary.
To evaluate the appropriateness and accuracy of the impairment determined by management, we examined the age and type of assets as well as the carrying values for each to assess whether the values were reasonably stated.
Derivatives
As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company enters into convertible debt arrangements that have variable conversion rates that are tied to the Company’s equity values.
Auditing management’s valuation of the of the fair value of derivative liabilities takes significant judgment, given the fact that the Binomial model uses estimates of future value based multiple scenarios from historical data.
To evaluate the appropriateness and accuracy of the fair value determined by management, we examined the historical data and the model used to calculate the fair value of the derivative liabilities.

AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL HOLDINGS CORP.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Year Ended December 31, 2020
(Audited)
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization, Ownership and Business
Prior to May 31, 2018, the Company was a 93.2% owned subsidiary of American International Industries, Inc. (“American” or “AMIN”) (OTCQB: AMIN). Effective May 31, 2018, the Company issued 10,100,000 shares of restricted common stock. As a result of the issuance of the common shares, a change in control occurred. American International Industries, Inc. ownership decreased from 93.2% to 6.4%. No one individual or entity owns at least 50% of the outstanding shares of the Company. Effective April 12, 2019, the Company changed its business focus to the services of medical spas.
On April 12, 2019, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Novopelle Diamond, LLC (“Novopelle”) and all three members of Novopelle, pursuant to which the Company issued 18,000,000 shares of the Company common stock to the members (three individuals) of Novopelle Diamond, LLC (“Novopelle”), a Texas limited company, to acquire 100% of the membership interests of Novopelle. The issuance of these shares represents a change in control of the Company. Concurrent with the issuance, Jacob Cohen, Esteban Alexander and Alan Hernandez, representing the three former members of Novopelle, were elected to the board of directors and to the office of Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Marketing officer of the Company, respectively. Everett Bassie and Charles Zeller resigned as board members of the Company. This transaction was treated as a reverse acquisition for accounting purposes, with the Company remaining the parent company and Novopelle (which has since been renamed VISSIA McKinney, LLC) becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
On April 28, 2020, the Company incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary, ZipDoctor, Inc. (“ZipDoctor”) in the State of Texas. ZipDoctor plans to provide its customers with unlimited, 24/7 access to board certified physicians and licensed mental and behavioral health counselors and therapists via a newly developed, monthly subscription based online telemedicine platform. ZipDoctor was launched in August 2020 and has generated nominal revenues through the quarter ended December 31, 2020.
On May 15, 2020, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with Global Career Networks Inc, a Delaware corporation (the “GCN”), the sole owner of Life Guru, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Life Guru”). Pursuant to the SPA, the Company acquired a 51% interest in Life Guru from GCN. As consideration for the purchase of the 51% ownership interest in Life Guru, the Company issued to GCN 500,000 shares of its newly designated Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, which had an agreed upon value of $500,000 ($1.00 per share), and agreed to issue GCN up to an additional 1,500,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (with an agreed upon value of $1,500,000) upon reaching certain milestones.
Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Consolidated Financial Statements. The outbreak of the 2019 novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”), which was declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020, and the related responses by public health and governmental authorities to contain and combat its outbreak and spread has severely impacted the U.S. and world economies, the market for health spa services, nutrition supplements and our other business offerings during the end of the first quarter of 2020, and continuing through the second, third and fourth quarters of 2020. Government mandated ‘stay-at-home’ and similar orders have to date, and may in the future, prevent us from staffing our spas and construction services, and prohibited us from operating altogether. Specifically, as a result of COVID-19 and ‘stay-at-home’ and social distancing orders issued in McKinney and The Woodlands, Texas, we had to close both of our MedSpas, VISSIA McKinney and VISSIA Waterway, Inc., which were closed effective March 10, 2020, and which resulted in both the loss of income and the loss of most of our workforce, who had to be let go. VISSIA Waterway, Inc. reopened effective June 21, 2020 and VISSIA McKinney reopened effective August 8, 2020. However, due to the termination of employees associated with the shutdown we were forced to expend resources to attract, hire and train completely new staff for preparation of the re-launchings. Notwithstanding the re-openings, customer traffic and demand at our VISSIA Waterway, Inc. and VISSIA McKinney MedSpa locations failed to rebound to pre-closure levels due to COVID-19 and the pandemic’s effects on the economy, and because we are unable to predict the length of the pandemic or ultimate outcome thereof, and further due to our limited capital resources, effective in October 2020, we made the decision to close both our VISSIA Waterway, Inc. and VISSIA McKinney locations and discontinued such operations. Although our MedSpas were forced to close during the second and third quarters, and are temporarily closed for economic reasons currently, Legend Nutrition was able to remain open as an essential business as we sold vitamins and other nutritional supplements. Legend Nutrition’s lease was up January 31, 2021, and the Company chose not to renew the lease, closed the store, and will not continue in this line of business moving forward.
57 |
Moving forward, we expect to deal with the loss of available employees due to health concerns which in the future may limit our ability to operate. Separately, economic recessions, including those brought on by the COVID-19 outbreak may have a negative effect on the demand for our services and our operating results. We have also experienced delays due to the COVID-19 outbreak in receiving products and supplies which we need to operate.
All of the above may be exacerbated in the future as the COVID-19 outbreak and the governmental responses thereto continues. Furthermore, all of the above may be exacerbated due to the fact that all of our operations currently take place in the state of Texas, which has recently experienced some of the largest increases in the number of cases of, and the number of hospitalizations related to, COVID-19.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of AMIH and its wholly-owned subsidiaries: VISSIA McKinney, LLC (f/k/a Novopelle Diamond, LLC), VISSIA Waterway, Inc. (f/k/a Novopelle Waterway, Inc.), Legend Nutrition, Inc., Capitol City Solutions USA, Inc. and EPIQ MD, Inc.
VISSIA Waterway, Inc., VISSIA McKinney LLC and Legend Nutrition (collectively referred to as “Discontinued Subsidiaries”) have been presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to amounts in prior periods to conform to the current period presentation. All reclassifications have been applied consistently to the periods presented.
Cash Equivalents
Highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less are considered cash equivalents. There are no cash equivalents at December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.
The Company maintains the majority of its cash accounts at a commercial bank. The total cash balance is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000 per commercial bank. From time to time, cash in deposit accounts may exceed the FDIC limits, the excess would be at risk of loss for purposes of the statement of cash flows.
Inventory
Inventory consists of finished goods purchased, which are valued at the lower of cost or market value, with cost being determined on the first-in, first-out method. The Company periodically reviews historical sales activity to determine potentially obsolete items and also evaluates the impact of any anticipated changes in future demand. Total Value of Finished goods inventory as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 was $12,631 and $16,484, respectively, from discontinued operations. The Company had no inventory from continuing operations as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. No allowance was necessary as of December 31, 2020 and 2019.
58 |
Net Loss Per Common Share
We compute net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earning per Share. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing Diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. There were no dilutive securities for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Property, Plant, Equipment, Depreciation, Amortization and Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets include:
Property, Plant and Equipment – Assets acquired in the normal course of business are recorded at original cost and may be adjusted for any additional significant improvements after purchase. We depreciate the cost evenly over the assets’ estimated useful lives from the date on which they become fully operational and after taking into account their estimated residual values:
Depreciable life | Residual value | |||||
Machinery and Equipment | 5 years | 0 | % | |||
Furniture and fixture | 7 years | 0 | % | |||
Computer and software | 3 years | 0 | % |
Upon retirement or sale, the cost of the assets disposed of and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, with any resultant gain or loss being recognized as a component of other income or expense.
Identifiable intangible assets – These assets are recorded at acquisition cost. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized evenly over their estimated useful lives.
At least annually, we review all long-lived assets for impairment. When necessary, we record changes for impairments of long-lived assets for the amount by which the present value of future cash flows, or some other fair value measure, is less than the carrying value of these assets.
If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, we measure the possible goodwill impairment based upon an allocation of the estimate of fair value of the reporting unit to all of the underlying assets and liabilities of the reporting unit, including any previously unrecognized intangible assets (Step Two Analysis). The excess of the fair value of a reporting unit over the amounts assigned to its assets and liabilities (“carrying amount”) is the implied fair value of goodwill.
Goodwill and indefinite-lived brands are not amortized, but are evaluated for impairment annually or when indicators of a potential impairment are present. Our impairment testing of goodwill is performed separately from our impairment testing of indefinite-lived intangibles. The annual evaluation for impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles is based on valuation models that incorporate assumptions and internal projections of expected future cash flows and operating plans. The Company believe such assumptions are also comparable to those that would be used by other marketplace participants.
59 |
Fair value of financial instruments
The Company measures its financial and non-financial assets and liabilities, as well as makes related disclosures, in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), which provides guidance with respect to valuation techniques to be utilized in the determination of fair value of assets and liabilities. Approaches include, (i) the market approach (comparable market prices), (ii) the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow), and (iii) the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). ASC 820 utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:
Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.
Our financial instruments include cash, inventories, prepayment and deposits, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, accrued interest payable, accrued compensation, convertible note payable, loans payable, derivative liabilities and billing in excess of costs and estimated earnings.
The carrying values of the Company’s cash, inventories, prepayment and deposits, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, accrued interest payable, accrued compensation, convertible note payable, short-term loans payable, derivative liabilities and billing in excess of costs and estimated earnings approximate their fair value due to their short-term nature.
The Company’s convertible note payable are measured at amortized cost.
The derivative liabilities are stated at their fair value as a level 3 measurement. The Company used the Lattice Model to determine the fair values of these derivative liabilities. See Note 10 and Note 11 for the Company’s assumptions used in determining the fair value of these financial instruments.
Convertible notes payable
The Company accounts for convertible notes payable in accordance with the FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 815, Derivatives and Hedging, since the conversion feature is not indexed to the Company’s stock and can’t be classified in equity. The Company allocates the proceeds received from convertible notes payable between the liability component and conversion feature component. The conversion feature that is considered embedded derivative liabilities has been recorded at their fair value as its fair value can be separated from the convertible note and its conversion is independent of the underlying note value. The Company has also recorded the resulting discount on debt related to the conversion feature and is amortizing the discount using the effective interest rate method over the life of the debt instruments.
Derivative liabilities
The Company accounts for derivative liabilities in accordance with the FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). ASC 815 requires companies to recognize all derivative liabilities in the balance sheet at fair value, and marks it to market at each reporting date with the resulting gains or losses shown in the Statement of Operations.
Management’s Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
60 |
Concentration and Risks
The Company’s operations are subject to risks including financial, operational, regulatory and other risks including the potential risk of business failure.
For the year ended December 31, 2020, 99.9% of the Company’s revenues from continuing operations were derived from two major customers in connection with the construction contracts.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in according with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 606. The underlying principle is that the Company recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods and services to customers in an amount that they expect to be entitled to in the exchange for goods and services provided. A five-step process has been designed for the individual or pools of contracts to keep financial statements focused on this principle.
Revenues from fixed-price and cost-plus contracts are recognized on the percentage of completion method, whereby revenues on long-term contracts are recorded on the basis of the Company’s estimates of the percentage of completion of contracts based on the ratio of actual cost incurred to total estimated costs. This cost-to-cost method is used because management considers it to be the best available measure of progress on these contacts. Revenues from cost-plus-fee contracts are recognized on the basis of costs incurred during the period plus the fee earned, measured on the cost-to-cost method.
Revenues from time-and-material and rate chart contracts are recognized currently as work is performed.
Revenues from maintenance service contracts are recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract once the Company has an agreement, service has begun, the price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assumed.
Cost of revenues include all direct material, sub-contractor, labor and certain other direct costs, as well as those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor and fringe benefits. Selling, general, and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined. Changes in job performance, job conditions and estimated profitability may result in revisions to cost and income, which are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined. Changes in estimated job profitability resulting from job performance, job conditions, contract penalty provisions, claims, change orders, and settlements, are accounted for as changes in estimates in the current period. Claims for additional contract revenue are recognized when realization of the claim is probable and the amount can be reasonably determined.
Stock based compensation
The Company recognizes compensation costs to employees under FASB Accounting Standards Codification 718 “Compensation - Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). Under ASC 718, companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share based compensation arrangements include stock options and warrants. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant.
On July 27, 2018, the inception date, the Company adopted ASU No. 2018-07 “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” These amendments expand the scope of Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation (which currently only includes share-based payments to employees) to include share-based payments issued to nonemployees for goods or services. Consequently, the accounting for share-based payments to nonemployees and employees will be substantially aligned.
61 |
Income Taxes
The Company is a taxable entity and recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities 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 tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences reverse. The effect on the deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the year that includes the enactment date of the rate change. A valuation allowance is used to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
Related Parties
The Company follows subtopic 850-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.
Pursuant to Section 850-10-20 the related parties include a. affiliates of the Company; b. Entities for which investments in their equity securities would be required, absent the election of the fair value option under the Fair Value Option Subsection of Section 825–10–15, to be accounted for by the equity method by the investing entity; c. trusts for the benefit of employees, such as pension and profit-sharing trusts that are managed by or under the trusteeship of management; d. principal owners of the Company; e. management of the Company; f. other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests; and g. Other parties that can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or that have an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests.
The consolidated financial statements shall include disclosures of material related party transactions, other than compensation arrangements, expense allowances, and other similar items in the ordinary course of business. However, disclosure of transactions that are eliminated in the preparation of consolidated or combined financial statements is not required in those statements. The disclosures shall include: a. the nature of the relationship(s) involved; b. a description of the transactions, including transactions to which no amounts or nominal amounts were ascribed, for each of the periods for which income statements are presented, and such other information deemed necessary to an understanding of the effects of the transactions on the financial statements; c. the dollar amounts of transactions for each of the periods for which income statements are presented and the effects of any change in the method of establishing the terms from that used in the preceding period; and d. amounts due from or to related parties as of the date of each balance sheet presented and, if not otherwise apparent, the terms and manner of settlement. A material related party transaction has been identified in Note 11 in the financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the effect of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material effect on its consolidated financial position or results of operations upon adoption.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820).” This standard modifies disclosure requirements related to fair value measurement and is effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. Implementation on a prospective or retrospective basis varies by specific disclosure requirement. The standard also allows for early adoption of any removed or modified disclosures upon issuance while delaying adoption of the additional disclosures until their effective date. The Company adopted ASU No. 2018-13 effective on January 1, 2020 and it did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (Topic 740)”. This standard simplifies the accounting for income taxes. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for all entities. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2020, 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 815 – 40)” (“ASU 2020-06”). ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. The ASU is part of the FASB’s simplification initiative, which aims to reduce unnecessary complexity in U.S. GAAP. The ASU’s amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2020-06 on its financial statements.

Note 3 – Asset Purchase Agreement
On October 18, 2019, Legend Nutrition, Inc. (“Legend”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with David Morales (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) to acquire all of the assets associated with and related to a retail vitamin, supplements and nutrition store located in Mckinney, TX previously doing business as “Ideal Nutrition”. Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, Legend purchased a variety of assets including software, contracts, bank and merchant accounts, products, inventory, computers, security systems and other intellectual properties (the “Assets”). For consideration of the Assets, Legend issued to Mr. Morales a promissory note in the amount of Seventy-Five Thousand US Dollars ($75,000) bearing an interest rate of five percent (5%) per annum and with a maturity date of one year (the “Promissory Note”). As of December 31, 2020, the promissory note is fully converted. During 2021, the Company discontinued operation of Legend. The assets acquired pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, such as property and equipment of $16,303 and goodwill of $29,689 have been fully impaired.

Note 4 – Goodwill
As of December 31, 2020, the goodwill in connection with the acquisition of the assets in October 2019 associated with and related to a retail vitamin, supplements and nutrition store located in McKinney, Texas was $0.
Goodwill is not amortized, but is evaluated for impairment annually or when indicators of a potential impairment are present. The annual evaluation for impairment of 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. The Company determined impairment adjustment was necessary for the year ended December 31, 2020, since the goodwill was not substantiating a future cash flow. Hence, goodwill of $29,689 was impaired in full during the fourth quarter of 2020.
Note 5 – Licensing Agreement
On June 27th, 2019, the Company executed an exclusive license agreement with Novo MedSpa Addison Corp (“Novo Medspa”) providing the Company with the exclusive rights to the Novopelle brand and to establish new Novopelle branded MedSpa locations on a worldwide basis (the “Exclusive License”). In consideration for the Exclusive License, the Company paid Novo MedSpa a one-time cash payment of $40,000 and issued to Novo MedSpa 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock were valued at $0.10 per share or $25,000.
During the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company opened a new MedSpa location and paid Novo MedSpa a one-time cash payment of $30,000 as a new location fee pursuant to the exclusive license agreement.
On May 13, 2020, the Company provided Novo Medspa with notice to terminate the June 27, 2019 License Agreement in pursuit of the Company’s desire to establish and develop its own brand and have the flexibility to offer additional products and services that are not currently available at Novopelle branded locations, which was effective immediately. Accordingly, the license of $95,000 was impaired in full during the second quarter of 2020.
Note 6 – Other assets
On May 15, 2020, the Company executed a securities purchase agreement with Global Career Networks Inc, a Delaware corporation (the “Seller”), the sole owner of Life Guru, pursuant to which the Company purchased from the Seller, a 51% interest in the capital stock of Life Guru, representing an aggregate of 2,040 shares of Life Guru’s common stock. LifeGuru owns and operates the LifeGuru.me website which is currently in development and is anticipated to be fully launched in the fourth quarter of 2020. In consideration for the purchase, the Company agreed to issue the Seller 500,000 shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock at closing, which occurred on May 15, 2020. An additional up to 1,500,000 Series B Preferred Stock shares will be issuable to the Seller upon the following milestones, provided that such milestones are met prior to the earlier of (i) one (1) year after closing; and (ii) thirty (30) days after the Company has provided the Seller written notice of a breach by the Seller of any provision of the SPA, which breach has not been reasonably cured within such thirty (30) day period (such earlier date of (i) and (ii), the “Milestone Termination Date”):
(a) 500,000 Series B Preferred Stock shares upon completion of the fully operational LifeGuru.me website;
(b) 500,000 Series B Preferred Stock shares upon such time as 300 coaches have signed up at LifeGuru.me; and
(c) 500,000 Series B Preferred Stock shares upon such time as 1,000 coaches have signed up at LifeGuru.me.
The fair value of 500,000 shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock issued at closing, valued on such grant date was $605,488, which equaled the market price per common share on the grant multiplied by the equivalent number of common shares which would be issuable upon conversion of Series B Preferred Stock.
The Company did not recognize any liabilities related to the milestone shares due to the uncertainty surrounding such milestones.

The 51% owned subsidiary is a consolidated entity which requires the presentation of noncontrolling interest in the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020. As there was no activity for the entity as of December 31, 2020, no assets, liabilities or noncontrolling interest were presented at the period ended December 31, 2020. Since the asset is not substantiating a future cash flow, the Company determined an impairment adjustment was necessary for the periods presented. Investment in LifeGuru of $605,488 was impaired in full during the fourth quarter of 2020.

Note 12 – Derivative Liabilities
Notes that are convertible at a discount to market are considered embedded derivatives.
Under Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”), U.S. GAAP, Accounting Standards Codification, “Derivatives and Hedging”, ASC Topic 815 (“ASC 815”) requires that all derivative financial instruments be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. Fair values for exchange traded securities and derivatives are based on quoted market prices. Where market prices are not readily available, fair values are determined using market-based pricing models incorporating readily observable market data and requiring judgment and estimates.
The Company’s convertible note has been evaluated with respect to the terms and conditions of the conversion features contained in the note to determine whether they represent embedded or freestanding derivative instruments under the provisions of ASC 815. The Company determined that the conversion features contained in the notes totaled $1,243,750 and represent a freestanding derivative instrument that meets the requirements for liability classification under ASC 815. As a result, the fair value of the derivative financial instrument in the note is reflected in the Company’s balance sheet as a liability. The fair value of the derivative financial instrument of the convertible note was measured using the Lattice Model at the inception date of the note and will do so again on each subsequent balance sheet date. Any changes in the fair value of the derivative financial instruments are recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense at each balance sheet date. The derivative liabilities will be reclassified into additional paid in capital upon conversion.
The Convertible Note derivatives were valued as of December 31, 2019, issuance, conversion and December 31, 2020 as set forth in the table below.
Derivative liabilities as of December 31, 2019 | $ | 458,745 | ||
Initial derivative liabilities at new note issuance | 895,204 | |||
Initial loss | (36,607 | ) | ||
Conversion | (907,550 | ) | ||
Mark to market changes | 107,574 | |||
Derivative liabilities as of December 31, 2020 | $ | 517,366 |
71 |
As of December 31, 2020, the Company had derivative liabilities of $517,366, and recorded changes in derivative liabilities in the amount of $105,254 during the year ended December 31, 2020.
The following assumptions were used for the valuation of the derivative liability related to the Notes:
- | The stock price would fluctuate with the Company’s projected volatility; | |
- | The projected volatility curve from an annualized analysis for each valuation period was based on the historical volatility of the Company and the term remaining for each note ranged from 176% through 290% at issuance, conversion, and quarters ends; | |
- | The Company would not redeem the notes; | |
- | An event of default adjusting the interest rate would occur initially 0% of the time for all notes with increases 1% per month to a maximum of 10% with the corresponding penalty; | |
- | The Company would raise capital quarterly at market, which could trigger a reset event; and | |
- | The Holder would convert the note monthly if the Company was not in default. |
Note 13 – Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contract
The Company has two major long-term contracts in progress which were completed during the year ended December 31, 2020. Work has started on the long-term contracts that will have costs and earnings in the following periods:

Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contract | $ | - |
Unbilled receivables, which represent an unconditional right to payment subject only to the passage of time, are reclassified to accounts receivable when they are billed under the terms of the contract. Contract liabilities represent amounts billed to clients in excess of revenue recognized to date, which was $0 as of December 31, 2020. The Company recognized revenue of $5,640,707 for the two construction projects, Normandy and Gateway during the year ended December 31, 2020 in connection with such contract assets. All incurred costs associated with contract assets as of December 31, 2020 was billed and collected.

Note 14 – Income Taxes
The Company has current net operating loss carryforwards in excess of $3,049,371 as of December 31, 2020, to offset future taxable income, which expire beginning 2029.
Deferred taxes are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities as measured by the enacted tax rates, which will be in effect when these differences reverse. The components of deferred income tax assets are as follows:
December 31, 2020 | ||||
Deferred Tax Asset: | ||||
Net Operating Loss | $ | 640,368 | ||
Valuation Allowance | (640,368 | ) | ||
Net Deferred Asset | $ | — |
At December 31, 2020, the Company provided a 100% valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset because it could not be determined whether it was more likely than not that the deferred tax asset/(liability) would be realized.
Note 15 – Capital Stock
Preferred Stock
The Company is authorized to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.0001 par value, of which three shares were designated as Series A Preferred Stock and 2,000,000 were designated as Series B Preferred stock, the balance of 2,999,997 shares of preferred stock were undesignated as of December 31, 2020.
The holders of Series A Preferred Stock have no dividend rights, liquidation preference and conversion rights. As long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock remain issued and outstanding, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock have the right to vote on all shareholder matters equal to sixty percent (60%) of the total vote. At the option of the Company, Series A Preferred Stock is redeemable at $1.00 per share.
The holders of Series B Preferred Stock have the same dividend rights as common stockholders on a fully converted basis, are entitled to receive pari passu with any distribution of any of the assets of the Company to the holders of the Company’s common stock, but not prior to any holders of senior securities. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock may be converted, at the option of the holder thereof, into that number of shares of common stock of the Company as equals $1.00 divided by 90% of the average of the volume weighted average prices (“VWAP”) of the Company’s common stock, for the five trading days immediately preceding the date the notice of conversion is received, subject to the limit of 4.999% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock. The holders of Series B Preferred Stock have no voting rights.
On May 15, 2020, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with GCN as described in greater detail in “Note 1 Summary of Significant Account Policies – Organization, Ownership and Business”. Pursuant to the SPA, the Company acquired a 51% interest in Life Guru from GCN in consideration for 500,000 shares of newly designated Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, which had an agreed upon value of $500,000 ($1.00 per share), and agreed to issue GCN up to an additional 1,500,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (with an agreed upon value of $1,500,000) upon reaching certain milestones. The fair value of the first 500,000 shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock at grant date was $605,488, a result of market price per common share at the grant date times the equivalent number of common shares after the conversion of Series B Preferred Stock. Such 500,000 initial shares of Series B Preferred Stock were subsequently converted to common stock in June 2020, as discussed below.
On May 20, 2020, the Company issued one share of its newly designated shares of Series A Preferred Stock to each of the three members of its then Board of Directors, (1) Jacob D. Cohen, (2) Esteban Alexander and (3) Luis Alan Hernandez, in consideration for services rendered to the Company as members of the Board of Directors. Such shares of Series A Preferred Stock vote in aggregate sixty percent (60%) of the total vote on all shareholder matters, voting separately as a class. Notwithstanding such voting rights, no change in control of the Company was deemed to have occurred in connection with the issuance since Messrs. Cohen, Alexander and Hernandez, own in aggregate 68% of the Company’s outstanding common stock and therefore controlled the Company prior to such issuance. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by Mr. Alexander and Mr. Hernandez were canceled on November 6, 2020 pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreements dated October 2, 2020, and as such, a change of control occurred on such date, with Mr. Cohen taking over voting control of the Company, and serving since December 15, 2020, as the sole officer and director of the Company.

On December 30, 2020, the Company issued 683,791 common shares to an investor in exchange for $86,217 of principal and accrued interest owed under the terms and conditions of that convertible note as issued to Geneva Roth Remark Holdings, Inc., dated May 19, 2020.
On December 30, 2020, the Company issued 889,979 common shares to settle a Note with an unrelated party, dated October 18, 2019.

Note 16 – Going Concern
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.
As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has a net loss from continuing operation of $6,136,105 and $3,131,760 for the year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 respectively, a net loss from discontinued operation of $1,203,785 and $80,488 for the year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 respectively, and an accumulated deficit of $10,559,658 as of December 31, 2020. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. These financials do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and reclassification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty. There can be no assurance that the Company will become commercially viable without additional financing, the availability and terms of which are uncertain. If the Company cannot secure necessary capital when needed on commercially reasonable terms, its business, condition (financial and otherwise) and commercial viability may be harmed. Although management believes that it will be able to successfully execute its business plan, which includes third party financing and the raising of capital to meet the Company’s future liquidity needs, there can be no assurances in this regard. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
In the ordinary course of business, the Company may become a party to lawsuits involving various matters. The impact and outcome of litigation, if any, is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm its business. The Company believes the ultimate resolution of any such current proceeding will not have a material adverse effect on our continued financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Robert Holden vs AMIH
On October 14, 2019, Robert Holden, the Company’s former CEO, filed a Petition and Application for Temporary Restraining Order in the District Court of Harris County, Texas against the Company stating that the Company is blocking Mr. Holden’s legal right to trade his shares in the open market and further attempting to stake his claim that he maintains his rights to the 3,800,000 shares he received in connection with his acceptance as CEO of the Company on or around May 31, 2018. The Company is maintaining the position that Mr. Holden does not have the right to those shares as he was in breach of his obligation to convey a digital marketing business to the Company and subsequently resigned from the Company shortly thereafter, on or around August 15, 2018 and that he procured the shares through fraud. On November 11, 2019, the Company issued a response with a Motion to Dismiss Under the Texas Citizen’s Participation Act (TCPA) citing that any declaratory judgment and breach of contract claims be dismissed unless Mr. Holden can, through “clear and specific evidence”, establish a prima facie case for each essential element of his claims. After an attempt to remand the case to federal court, the Company filed an amended notice of submission for its TCPA motion for submission on May 18, 2020, whereby Holden failed to respond to the motion in a timely manner. On May 18, 2020, the Company filed a response in support of its motion to dismiss under the TCPA, which was denied on June 3, 2020. Immediately thereafter, on June 4, 2020, the Company filed a notice of accelerated interlocutory appeal to appeal the denial of the motion to dismiss under the TCPA and the trial court’s failure to rule on the Company’s objection to the timeliness of Holden’s response. The outcome of this action, and the ultimate outcome of the lawsuit is currently unknown at this time, provided that the Company intends to vehemently defend itself against the claims made in the lawsuit.
AMIH vs. Winfred Fields
On November 11, 2019, the Company filed an original petition and jury demand against Winfred Fields, a shareholder, in the 458th Judicial District Court of Fort Bend County seeking damages related to breach of contract and fraud related charges. The Company executed an exchange agreement with Mr. Fields on or around April 12, 2019 whereby Mr. Fields was required to tender to the Company a total of 650,000 of the 750,000 shares of the Company’s common stock that Mr. Fields then owned (the “Exchanged Shares”) in exchange for a promissory note with a maturity date of April 12, 2021 payable in the amount of $42,500 (the “Fields Note”) (see also “Note 11 - Loans to Related Parties”). The Exchange Agreement required that Mr. Fields immediately return the stock certificates for the Exchanged Shares to the Company or its designated agent for immediate cancellation and for Mr. Fields to retain the remaining 100,000 shares. Mr. Fields agreed in the Exchange Agreement that these shares would not become unrestricted until such time as Mr. Fields received an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company that the shares were not restricted for trade under SEC regulations. After executing the Exchange Agreement, Mr. Fields—rather than return the Exchanged Shares or obtain said opinion of counsel—attempted to deposit and trade the Exchanged Shares and the restricted shares, which was a direct violation of the Exchange Agreement. The Company asserts that Mr. Fields knowingly, willingly and fraudulently attempted to deposit and trade the Exchanged Shares and is seeking damages and equitable relief. Upon several attempts to serve Mr. Fields, service was perfected on or around February 3, 2020. On March 2, 2020, Mr. Fields filed a response generally denying all claims. On May 22, 2020, the Company filed its first request for production and request for disclosure and discovery insisting that Mr. Fields produce all documentation related to the fraudulent transaction and is awaiting a response to these requested discovery items. The outcome of this action is currently unknown at this time. In November 2019, the Company recovered 650,000 shares from Mr. Fields which were cancelled in 2019.

Note 19 – Subsequent Events
On January 6, 2021 (the “First Closing Date”), the Company closed the transactions contemplated by a Securities Purchase Agreement dated January 6, 2021 (the “Purchase Agreement”), which was entered into with a group of accredited institutional investors (collectively, the “Investors”), for the sale of convertible promissory notes. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to sell 6% Original Issue Discount Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $1,450,000 (the “Notes”) and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 6,750,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Warrants”) to the Investors and entered into a Security Agreement, a Guaranty Agreement, a Pledge Agreement, and a Registration Rights Agreement (the foregoing, collectively with the Purchase Agreement, Notes and Warrant, the “Transaction Documents”). The Purchase Agreement includes indemnification obligations of the Company, requirements for the Company to reserve three times the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes and exercise of the Warrants, the right of the Investors to participate up to 30% in any future equity or debt offering made by the Company in the 12 months after the First Closing Date, a prohibition on the Company selling any shares of common stock or common stock equivalents until 30 days after the First Closing Date, subject to certain exceptions, a one year prohibition on the Company entering into any equity line transaction or variable rate transaction (including convertible notes with adjustable conversion prices), and a one year prohibition, without the approval of the Investors, of a reverse or forward stock split.
78 |
A total of $850,000 in Notes (the “First Tranche Notes”) were sold on the First Closing Date, and a total of $600,000 in Notes (the “Second Tranche Notes”), were sold on March 30, 2020 (the “Second Closing Date”). In connection with the sale of the First Tranche Notes, the Company paid $25,000 of the Investors’ legal fees and certain other amounts in expense reimbursements.
The First Tranche Notes mature on January 7, 2022 and the Second Tranche Notes mature on March 30, 2022, and accrue interest at a rate of 6% per annum (15% upon the occurrence of an event of default) payable to the Investors in cash on a calendar quarterly basis (which changes to monthly upon the occurrence of an event of default). Each of the Notes contained a 6% original issue discount.
The First Tranche Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at any time, at a rate equal to the lesser of (i) $0.50 per share and (ii) 75% of the lowest daily volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of the Company’s common stock during the seven consecutive trading days prior to the delivery of a conversion notice (the “Market Price”), but not less than 75% of the VWAP on the First Closing Date. The Second Tranche Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a rate equal to the lesser of (1) the VWAP on the Second Closing Date ($0.2437) or (2) the Market Price, but not less than 75% of the VWAP on the Second Tranche closing date. However, if while any Notes are outstanding and the daily VWAP on any of seven consecutive trading days is less than the applicable floor price(s), such floor price(s) are reduced (but not increased) to 75% of the VWAP on the seventh trading day.
The conversion price of the Notes may be adjusted upon the occurrence of certain events and the Notes may be declared immediately due and payable by the Investors in the event the Company defaults on any terms of the Notes or the other Transaction Documents. Additionally, at the option of the Investors, upon the occurrence of any event of default, the Investors can elect to convert the Notes at the lower of the stated conversion price and a conversion price equal to 70% of the lowest closing bid price of the common stock during the 10 consecutive trading day period ending and including the date of delivery or deemed delivery of any applicable conversion notice (the “Alternative Conversion Price”). The Notes contain penalties for the Company’s failure to timely deliver shares due upon conversion thereof. The Notes contain provisions limiting each Investor’s ability to convert any portion of its individual Note if such conversion would cause the Investor’s (or any affiliate of any such Investor) holdings in the Company to exceed 9.99% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock. The Notes contain customary events of default, which include any default of $30,000 of more of indebtedness of the Company, final judgements equal to or greater than $75,000 rendered against the Company, and the Company’s failure to comply with the reporting obligations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, at the option of the holder thereof, the amount of the Note increases by 110% (including principal and accrued interest) (plus 2% additional for each event of default that occurs thereafter). The Notes contain certain rights of the holders thereof upon the occurrence of a change of control or fundamental transaction, each as described in greater detail therein.
The Warrants are exercisable at various prices with (i) Warrants to purchase 2,250,000 shares of common stock exercisable at $0.20 per share, (ii) Warrants to purchase 2,250,000 shares of common stock exercisable at $0.35 per share, and (iii) Warrants to purchase 2,250,000 shares of common stock exercisable at $0.50 per share. All of the Warrants may be exercised via cashless exercise in the event that the shares underlying the Warrants are not registered within 180 days of the closing of the transaction. The Warrants, if not exercised by such date, terminate on January 7, 2026. The Warrants contain provisions limiting each Investor’s ability to exercise the Warrants if such exercise would cause the Investor’s (or any affiliate of any such Investor) holdings in the Company to exceed 9.99% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock. We may prepay the Notes (provided we treat all Note holders equally) by paying 110% of the principal and interest thereon at any time (provided we are required to provide the holders 15 days prior written notice of such repayment, and during which time period the holder may convert the Note into common stock). Unless the Company’s common stock is listed on the NYSE, the NYSE American, the Nasdaq Capital Market, Nasdaq Global Market or Nasdaq Global Select, at any time the Company issues common stock or common stock equivalents, subject to certain exceptions, below the then exercise price, the exercise price of the Warrants reset to the lower of such dilutive issuance or the VWAP on the next trading day following the first public disclosure of such dilutive issuance. Upon an event of default, the exercise price of the Warrants, at the option of the Investors, is the Alternative Conversion Price. If the Company undertakes a fundamental transaction and the successor entity is not a publicly-traded company, the holders of the Warrants have the right to require the Company to pay the greater of (a) the Black Scholes Value of the warrants; and (b) the positive difference between the consideration payable in such fundamental transaction minus the exercise price.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
None.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We have established and maintain a system of disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed with the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Commission and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer/principal financial/accounting officer), to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer/principal financial/accounting officer), evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of December 31, 2020. As of December 31, 2020, based on the evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, and in light of the material weakness we found in our internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020 (as described in greater detail below), our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer/principal financial/accounting officer) has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act, is recorded properly, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Commission and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer/principal financial/accounting officer), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the - Commission (2013 Framework)(the “COSO Framework”). Based on this evaluation under the COSO Framework, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2020.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit smaller reporting companies to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
The Company recognizes the following weaknesses and deficiencies of the Company as of December 31, 2020:
We recognized the following deficiencies that we believe to be material weaknesses:
- | The Company has not fully designed, implemented or assessed internal controls over financial reporting. Due to the Company being a developing company, management’s assessment and conclusion over internal controls were ineffective this year. |
- | We recognized the following deficiencies that we believe to be significant deficiencies: |
- | The Company has no formal control process related to the identification and approval of related party transactions. |
- | We do not have written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. Written documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting is a requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. |
- | We do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. However, to the extent possible, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals. |
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There has not been any change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three-months ended December 31, 2020, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
As a result of COVID-19, our workforce has operated primarily in a work from home environment for the quarter ended December 31, 2020. While pre-existing controls were not specifically designed to operate in our current work from home operating environment, we don’t believe that such work from home actions have had a material adverse effect on our internal controls over financial reporting. We have continued to re-evaluate and refine our financial reporting process to provide reasonable assurance that we could report our financial results accurately and timely.
None.

ITEM 10. DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
The following table sets forth the name, age and position of each director and executive officer of the Company.
Name | Position | Age | Term of Office | |||
Jacob D. Cohen | Chief Executive Officer, President, Director | 42 | April, 2019 – Present |
Our directors are elected annually (or as often as we hold meetings of stockholders) and will hold office until our next annual meeting of the stockholders and until their successors are elected and qualified. Officers will hold their positions at the pleasure of the board of directors, absent any employment agreement. Our officers and directors (currently consisting solely of Mr. Cohen) may receive compensation as determined by us from time to time by vote of the board of directors (currently consisting solely of Mr. Cohen). Such compensation might be in the form of stock options or other equity. Directors may be reimbursed by the Company for expenses incurred in attending meetings of the board of directors. Vacancies in the Board are filled by majority vote of the remaining directors.
The business experience of Mr. Cohen is as follows:
Jacob D. Cohen, Chief Executive Officer, President and Director
Jacob Cohen is a serial entrepreneur, corporate finance and executive management professional with over 18 years of investment banking and capital markets experience having started and growing multiple companies in various industry sectors including marketing, advertising, healthcare, IT and financial services. Prior to joining the Company, Mr. Cohen was the co-founder and managing partner of several boutique investment bank and strategic advisory firms where he advised both early and later stage companies in raising capital in the form of debt and/or equity and in both private and public markets.
Prior to his experiences in investment banking, Mr. Cohen served as the Chief Financial Officer of The Renewed Group, Inc. – a manufacturer, wholesaler and retailer of eco-friendly and sustainable apparel primarily made from recycled textiles and under the brand name REUSE JEANS from 2010 through the end of 2013. Further, Mr. Cohen served from 2008 through 2010 as Executive Vice President and Controller of Metiscan, Inc., a publicly-traded company, and as the President and Chief Executive Officer of one of its subsidiaries, Shoreline Employment Services, Inc. During his tenure at Metiscan, Mr. Cohen was instrumental in restructuring, reorganizing and operating the company and its five subsidiaries, and successfully raised over $8 million in equity financing for growth capital. Mr. Cohen also spearheaded the company’s financial audit process and managed its various filings with the SEC.
From 2007 through 2008, Mr. Cohen served as the Chief Operating Officer of Artfest International, which he assisted in taking public at the end of 2007. Throughout his career, Mr. Cohen was involved in starting many new ventures, including The AdvertEyes Network, a digital signage advertising company where he served as founder and CEO.

Mr. Cohen holds a Bachelors of Arts in International Economics and Finance from Brandeis University in Waltham, MA.
Corporate Governance
The Company promotes accountability for adherence to honest and ethical conduct; endeavors to provide full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the Company files with the SEC and in other public communications made by the Company; and strives to be compliant with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations.
83 |
Board Leadership Structure
Our board of directors (currently consisting solely of Mr. Cohen) has the responsibility for selecting the appropriate leadership structure for the Company. In making leadership structure determinations, the board of directors considers many factors, including the specific needs of the business and what is in the best interests of the Company’s stockholders. We currently do not have a Chairman of the board of directors; however, Mr. Cohen, who serves as the sole member of the board of directors, serves as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The board of directors (currently consisting solely of Mr. Cohen) believes that this leadership structure is the most effective and efficient for the Company at this time. Mr. Cohen possesses detailed and in-depth knowledge of the issues, opportunities, and challenges facing the Company. The Board believes that its programs for overseeing risk, as described below, would be effective under a variety of leadership frameworks and therefore do not materially affect its choice of structure.
Risk Oversight
Effective risk oversight is an important priority of the board of directors (currently consisting solely of Mr. Cohen). Because risks are considered in virtually every business decision, the board of directors discuss risk throughout the year generally or in connection with specific proposed actions. The board of directors’ approach to risk oversight includes understanding the critical risks in the Company’s business and strategy, evaluating the Company’s risk management processes, allocating responsibilities for risk oversight, and fostering an appropriate culture of integrity and compliance with legal responsibilities. The directors exercise direct oversight of strategic risks to the Company.
Family Relationships
None of our directors (currently solely Mr. Cohen) are related by blood, marriage, or adoption to any other director, executive officer, or other key employees.
Arrangements between Officers and Directors
To our knowledge, there is no arrangement or understanding between any of our officers and any other person, including directors, pursuant to which the officer was selected to serve as an officer.
Other Directorships
No directors of the Company (currently consisting solely of Mr. Cohen) are also directors of issuers with a class of securities registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act (or which otherwise are required to file periodic reports under the Exchange Act).
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
None of our executive officers or directors (currently consisting solely of Mr. Cohen) has been involved in any of the following events during the past ten years:

Board of Directors and Committee Meetings
During the fiscal years that ended on December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Board held no meetings, but took various actions via written consent of the board of directors.
Committees of the Board
Our Company currently does not have nominating, compensation or audit committees or committees performing similar functions, nor does our Company have a written nominating, compensation or audit committee charter. Our directors believe that it is not necessary to have such committees, at this time, because the functions of such committees can be adequately performed by our board of directors (currently consisting solely of Mr. Cohen).
Our Company does not have any defined policy or procedural requirements for stockholders to submit recommendations or nominations for directors. Our directors (currently consisting solely of Mr. Cohen) believe that, given the stage of our development, a specific nominating policy would be premature and of little assistance until our business operations develop to a more advanced level. Our Company does not currently have any specific or minimum criteria for the election of nominees to the board of directors and we do not have any specific process or procedure for evaluating such nominees. The board of directors will assess all candidates, whether submitted by management or stockholders, and make recommendations for election or appointment.
Corporate Governance
The Company promotes accountability for adherence to honest and ethical conduct and strives to be compliant with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations.
In lieu of an Audit Committee, the Company’s board of directors (currently consisting solely of Mr. Cohen) is responsible for reviewing and making recommendations concerning the selection of outside auditors, reviewing the scope, results and effectiveness of the annual audit of the Company’s financial statements and other services provided by the Company’s independent public accountants. The board of directors review the Company’s internal accounting controls, practices and policies.
Director Independence
Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTCQB Market maintained by OTC Markets. The OTCQB Market does not require us to have independent members of our board of directors. We do not identify any of our directors as being independent.
As described above, we do not currently have a separately designated audit, nominating or compensation committee.

Stockholder Communications with the Board
Our stockholders and other interested parties may communicate with members of the Board by submitting such communications in writing to our Corporate Secretary, 3990 Vitruvian Way, Suite 1152, Addison, Texas 75001, who, upon receipt of any communication other than one that is clearly marked “Confidential,” will note the date the communication was received, open the communication, make a copy of it for our files and promptly forward the communication to the director(s) to whom it is addressed. Upon receipt of any communication that is clearly marked “Confidential,” our Corporate Secretary will not open the communication, but will note the date the communication was received and promptly forward the communication to the director(s) to whom it is addressed. If the correspondence is not addressed to any particular Board member or members, the communication will be forwarded to a Board member to bring to the attention of the Board.
Code of Ethics
On June 24, 2020, our board of directors adopted a Code of Ethical Business Conduct that applies to all of our directors, officers and employees. The Code of Ethics will be available for review in print, without charge, to any stockholder who requests a copy by writing to us at 3990 Vitruvian Way, Suite 1152, Addison, Texas 75001, Attention: Investor Relations. Each of our directors, employees and officers are required to comply with the Code of Ethics.
We intend to disclose any amendments to our Code of Ethics and any waivers with respect to our Code of Ethics granted to our principal executive officer, our principal financial officer, or any of our other employees performing similar functions on our website at amihcorp.com within four business days after the amendment or waiver. In such case, the disclosure regarding the amendment or waiver will remain available on our website for at least 12 months after the initial disclosure. There have been no waivers granted with respect to our Code of Ethics to any such officers or employees.
Policy on Equity Ownership
The Company does not have a policy on equity ownership at this time. However, as illustrated in “Certain Beneficial Owners and Management “, all current officers and directors (currently consisting solely of Mr. Cohen) are beneficial owners of stock of the Company.
Policy Against Hedging
The Company recognizes that hedging against losses in Company shares may disturb the alignment between stockholders and executives that equity awards are intended to build. Accordingly, the Company discourages ‘short sales’ of the Company’s securities by officers, directors and employees.
Compensation Recovery
Under the Sarbanes–Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”), in the event of misconduct that results in a financial restatement that would have reduced a previously paid incentive amount, we can recoup those improper payments from our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. We plan to implement a clawback policy in the future, although we have not yet implemented such policy.
Advisory Board
On March 17, 2021, the Company formed an Advisory Board to provide guidance to the Board of Directors (currently consisting solely of Jacob D. Cohen), regarding business development, marketing, acquisitions and other growth initiatives, and on such other matters as the board of directors may from time-to-time request input and guidance on. The Advisory Board has no authority to bind the Company or the board of directors on any matters and was formed only to provide the director(s) non-binding guidance and advice as requested by the Directors from time to time.
86 |
On March 17, 2021, the board of directors appointed Mr. Kevin Harrington to the newly formed Advisory Board. The Advisory Board’s mandate is to provide guidance to the Board of Directors regarding business development, marketing, acquisitions, other strategic initiatives and other matters as may be requested. As of the date of this report, Mr. Harrington is the sole member of the Company’s Advisory Board.
Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive officers and directors and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of our common stock to file reports of their ownership of, and transactions in, our common stock with the SEC and to furnish us with copies of the reports they file. Based solely upon our review of the Section 16(a) filings that have been furnished to us and representations by our directors and executive officers (where applicable), we believe that for the year ended December 31, 2020, all Section 16(a) filings were timely filed, except that Luis Alan Hernandez, inadvertently failed to timely two Form 4s and as a result, three transactions were not timely disclosed; Esteban Alexander, inadvertently failed to timely two Form 4s and as a result, four transactions were not timely disclosed; and Jacob D. Cohen, inadvertently failed to timely file two Form 4s and as a result, four transactions were not timely disclosed.

Employment Agreements
Concurrent with the Share Exchange Agreement entered into on April 12, 2019, each of Jacob D. Cohen, Esteban Alexander and Alan Hernandez (collectively, the “Executives”) entered into Executive Employment Agreements with the Company (collectively, the “Executive Employment Agreements”). The Executive Employment Agreements have substantially similar terms.
Pursuant to the Executive Employment Agreements, the Executives each were to receive an annual base salary of $90,000, which increased to $120,000 per year in 2020, and will be eligible to receive equity awards in the future, as determined by the Board. Each Executive is also paid a $1,500 per month automobile allowance. The Executive Employment Agreements have three-year terms, provided, however, after the end of the term, the Executive Employment Agreements will automatically renew for successive one-year terms. The Board may also grant the Executives bonuses (in cash or stock) in their discretion from time to time.
Each of the employment agreements of the Executives provide for such Executives to receive 25% of the net profits from each medical spa managed by such Executives. “Net profits” means all gross sales of a medical spa, less all expenses paid during the corresponding period.
If an Executive’s employment agreement is terminated during the term of such agreement by the Company without cause (as defined in the agreement) or by the Executive for good reason (as defined in the agreement), such Executive is due a severance payment. That severance payment is equal to the compensation (including bonus) earned through the date of termination and three times (one time if less than one year remains on the employment agreement)(the “multiplier”) the base salary in effect on the date of the termination plus the average bonus received by the Executive over the prior two years and the Executive is also to be paid any bonus which he would have earned at the end of the fiscal year during which the employment is terminated (pro-rated for days worked), and is to be paid health insurance for the Executive and his family for 18 months from the date of termination (the “Severance Payments”). Also, all equity compensation due to vest in the following 12 months vests immediately. If an Executive dies while the employment agreement is in place, or the agreement is terminated due to the Executive’s disability, the Company is required to pay Executive’s salary to his beneficiaries for a period of one year following such death, pay the pro-rated amount of any bonus due, and pay 18 months of health insurance. If a change in control (as defined in the agreement) occurs and Executive is terminated up to one year after such change in control, the Executive is due the Severance Payments (based on a 3x multiplier) and all unvested equity awards vest immediately.
Each Executive also agreed to not compete against the Company for one year after the termination of their employment.
88 |
Effective on December 15, 2020, Mr. Esteban Alexander and Mr. Alan Hernandez, resigned as officers and directors of the Company, and as a result of such resignations, their employment agreements were terminated.
On October 1, 2019, the Company entered into an Employment Agreement with Jesse L. Dickens, Jr. to serve as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company’s then newly formed wholly owned subsidiary, Capitol City Solutions USA, Inc. (“CCS”) (the “Employment Agreement”). Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, Mr. Dickens will receive an annual base salary of $120,000 and will receive an equity grant in the amount of one million (1,000,000) shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Equity Shares”) pursuant to a vesting period of one-year, of which two-hundred and fifty thousand (250,000) shares are issuable to Mr. Dickens at the signing of the Employment Agreement and the remaining shares were issuable as follows: 250,000 shares on January 1, 2020, 250,000 shares on April 1, 2020, and 250,000 shares on July 1, 2020.
In addition, Mr. Dickens shall be eligible to receive cash performance bonuses and additional stock grants or options as determined by the Company from time to time. The Employment Agreement has a one-year term, provided, however, after the end of one year, the agreement will automatically renew for successive one-year terms.
On October 18, 2019, Legend Nutrition, Inc. (the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary) entered into an Employment Agreement with Michael Ladner to serve as its Chief Executive Officer (the “Employment Agreement”). Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, Mr. Ladner will receive an annual base salary of $60,000 per annum and shall increase to $100,000 per annum starting January 1, 2020 through October 18, 2021. In addition, Mr. Ladner shall be eligible to receive cash performance bonuses equal to five percent (5%) of the net profits generated by each Legend Nutrition store location while Mr. Ladner is employed by Legend. Further, Mr. Ladner may participate in equity incentive programs as determined by the Company from time to time. The Employment Agreement has a two-year term, provided, however, after the end of the term, the agreement will automatically renew for successive one-year terms. Mr. Ladner’s employment ended effective December 1, 2020, and he is no longer employed by Legend Nutrition, Inc.
On January 21, 2021, we entered into an Executive Employment Agreement with Alejandro Rodriguez, pursuant to which Mr. Rodriguez agreed to serve as the Chief Executive Officer of EPIQ MD, Inc. (“EPIQ MD”), a newly formed wholly-owned Texas subsidiary of the Company. The agreement has an initial term of three years, beginning on January 1, 2021, provided that the agreement automatically extends for additional one-year terms thereafter in the event neither party provides the other at least 60 days prior notice of their intention not to renew the terms of the agreement.
Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, Mr. Rodriguez’s annual compensation package includes annual base compensation of $90,000 for the first three months, which increases to an annual base salary of $120,000 commencing April 1, 2021, throughout the initial term of this agreement, provided that the annual salary increases to $240,000 upon Mr. Rodriguez and EPIQ MD achieving the First Performance Benchmarks (defined below), and increases to $500,000 upon achieving the Second Performance Benchmark (defined below).

As additional consideration pursuant to the agreement, the Company agreed to issue Mr. Rodriguez (a) 4,000,000 shares of restricted common stock, subject to forfeiture and vesting, of which 2,000,000 shares will vest upon the Launching of the Ambassador Program; 1,200,000 shares will vest upon EPIQ MD reaching the 5,000 active customer mark; and the remaining 800,000 shares will vest upon EPIQ MD reaching the 10,000 active customer mark, provided that all shares vest if the Company uplists its common stock to a higher trading exchange; and (b) together with other senior executives of EPIQ MD, up to 33% of the ownership of EPIQ MD, due as follows: 10% if Section (a) of the First Performance Benchmarks are met; 5% if Section (b) of the First Performance Benchmarks are met; 5% if Section (c) of the First Performance Benchmarks are met; 5% if Section (d) of the First Performance Benchmarks are met; and 8% if the Second Performance Benchmark is met, which shares shall vest immediately if EPIQ MD completes a spin-off, up-listing and/or a change of control event.

We may terminate Mr. Rodriguez’s employment (a) for “cause” (which is defined to include, a material breach of the agreement by Mr. Rodriguez, any act of misappropriation of funds or embezzlement by Mr. Rodriguez, Mr. Rodriguez committing any act of fraud, or Mr. Rodriguez being indicted of, or pleading guilty or nolo contendere with respect to, theft, fraud, a crime involving moral turpitude, or a felony under federal or applicable state law); (b) in the event Mr. Rodriguez suffers a physical or mental disability which renders him unable to perform his duties and obligations for either 90 consecutive days or 180 days in any 12-month period; (c) for any reason without “cause” or (d) upon expiration of the initial term of the agreement (or any renewal) upon notice as provided above. The agreement also automatically terminates upon the death of Mr. Rodriguez.
Mr. Rodriguez may terminate his employment (a) for “good reason” (i.e., (i) if his position or duties are modified to such an extent that his duties are no longer consistent with the position of CEO of EPIQ MD, (ii) there has been a material breach by us of a material term of the agreement or Mr. Rodriguez reasonably believes that we are violating any law which would have a material adverse effect on our operations and such violation continues uncured thirty days after such breach and after notice thereof has been provided to us by Mr. Rodriguez, or (iii) Mr. Rodriguez’s compensation is reduced without his consent, or we fail to pay to Mr. Rodriguez any compensation due to him upon 15 days written notice from Mr. Rodriguez informing us of such failure); provided, however, prior to any such termination by Mr. Rodriguez for “good reason”, Mr. Rodriguez must first advise us in writing (within 15 days of the occurrence of such event) and provide us 15 days to cure (15 days in connection with the reduction of Mr. Rodriguez’s salary or the failure to pay amounts owed to him)); (b) for any reason without “good reason” and (c) upon expiration of the initial term of the agreement (or any renewal) upon notice as provided above.

Stock Option Plan
On July 5, 2019, the board of directors adopted and approved a 2019 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan is intended to promote the interests of the Company by providing eligible persons with the opportunity to acquire a proprietary interest, or otherwise increase their proprietary interest, in the Company as an incentive for them to remain in the service of the Company. The maximum number of shares available to be issued under the Plan is currently 10,000,000 shares, subject to adjustments for any stock splits, stock dividends or other specified adjustments which may take place in the future. The Company has issued 2,435,000 shares of common stock under the Plan as of December 31, 2020.
The Plan is administered by the Company’s board of directors. Persons eligible to participate in the Plan must: (i) be a natural person, (ii) provide bona fide services to the Company, and (iii) provide services to the Company that services are not in connection with the offer or sale of securities in a capital-raising transaction, and do not directly or indirectly promote or maintain a market for the registrant’s securities. All grants under the Plan are intended to comply with the requirements under Internal Revenue Code Section 409A and activities under the Plan will be administered accordingly.
Options granted under the Plan are evidenced by agreement between the recipient and the Company, subject to the following general provisions:(i) a recipient of employee stock option may not exercise any options which would cause him/her/it to hold more than 4.9% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common or voting stock, unless such limitation is waived by providing 61 days’ written notice to the Company, but in no event may exercise options that would cause such recipient to hold more than 9.9% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common or voting stock; and (ii) the term of stock options shall be limited to a maximum of two years, unless otherwise approved by the board of directors.

Additional Transactions
On July 5, 2019, our board of directors adopted and approved our 2019 Stock Option and Incentive Plan. The Plan is intended to promote the interests of our Company by providing eligible person with the opportunity to acquire a proprietary interest, or otherwise increase their proprietary interest, in the Company as an incentive for them to remain in the service of the Company. The maximum number of shares available to be issued under the Plan is currently 10,000,000 shares, subject to adjustments for any stock splits, stock dividends or other specified adjustments which may take place in the future. The Company issued a total of 2,435,000 shares to eligible persons under the Plan and recorded a total $2,153,550 as Stock Based Compensation against these issuances for the year ended December 31, 2020.
On January 13, 2020, and with an effective date of December 31, 2019, the Company sold 100% of its interest in YS Brands to its current officers and directors in consideration of $300.00 in cash.
On May 20, 2020, the Company issued one share of its newly designated shares of Series A Preferred Stock (the rights associated with such Series A Preferred Stock are described in greater detail under “Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters, and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities—Description of Capital Stock—Preferred Stock—Series A Preferred Stock”), to each of the three members of its then board of directors, (1) Jacob D. Cohen, (2) Esteban Alexander and (3) Alan Hernandez, in consideration for services rendered to the Company as members of the board of directors. Such shares of Series A Preferred Stock vote in aggregate sixty percent (60%) of the total vote on all shareholder matters, voting separately as a class, as discussed in greater detail under “Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters, and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities—Description of Capital Stock—Preferred Stock—Series B Convertible Preferred Stock”. Notwithstanding such voting rights, no change in control of the Company was deemed to have occurred in connection with the issuance since Messrs. Cohen, Alexander and Hernandez, own in aggregate 68% of the Company’s outstanding common stock and therefore controlled the Company prior to such issuance.
96 |
On October 2, 2020, Jacob D. Cohen, the Chief Executive Officer and member of the board of directors of the Company entered into Stock Purchase Agreements with each of (a) Esteban Alexander, the Chief Operating Officer and member of the board of directors of the Company, and (b) Luis Alan Hernandez, the Chief Marketing Officer and member of the board of directors of the Company (collectively, the “Preferred Holders” and the “Stock Purchase Agreements”).
Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreements, Mr. Alexander agreed to sell 7,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company which he held to Mr. Cohen, which rights to such shares were assigned by Mr. Cohen to Cohen Enterprises, Inc., which entity he controls (“Cohen Enterprises”), in consideration for an aggregate of $1,500 as well as for the amount of services provided by Mr. Cohen to the Company; and Mr. Hernandez agreed to sell 4,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company which he held to Cohen Enterprises, in consideration for an aggregate of $1,000 as well as for the amount of services provided by Mr. Cohen to the Company. The sales closed on November 5, 2020.
One of the reasons that Mr. Alexander and Mr. Hernandez agreed to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreements (including the sale of the shares of common stock of the Company at below market value), is because (a) each of Mr. Cohen, Mr. Alexander, and Mr. Hernandez were all appointed as officers and directors of the Company at the same time in April 2019, with the intention that such persons would provide a relatively equal amount of services to the Company in the roles as officers and directors thereof; (b) since such appointment date Mr. Cohen has been required to provide a disproportionate amount of services to the Company; and (c) each of Mr. Alexander and Mr. Hernandez desired to provide additional consideration to Mr. Cohen for such disproportionate level of service.
A condition to the Stock Purchase Agreements was that each of Mr. Alexander and Mr. Hernandez resign as a member of the board of directors of the Company by no later than January 15, 2021, which resignations were effective December 15, 2020.
A further requirement to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreements was that each of Mr. Alexander and Mr. Hernandez take such actions necessary and which may be requested from time to time by Mr. Cohen, to affect the cancellation of the one share of Series A Preferred Stock of the Company held by each of them, for no consideration (including, but not limited to, without the required payment by the Company of the $1 redemption price described in the designation of such Series A Preferred Stock).
The shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by Mr. Alexander and Mr. Hernandez were canceled on November 6, 2020. The common shares were also transferred to Mr. Cohen on November 6, 2020, and as such, a change of control occurred on such date, with Mr. Cohen taking over voting control of the Company.
In January 2021, the Company issued Mr. Cohen an aggregate of 2.5 million shares of common stock in consideration for services rendered.
Review, Approval and Ratification of Related Party Transactions
Given our small size and limited financial resources, we have not adopted formal policies and procedures for the review, approval or ratification of transactions, such as those described above, with our executive officers, directors and significant stockholders. However, all of the transactions described above were approved and ratified by our board of directors (currently consisting solely of Mr. Cohen). In connection with the approval of the transactions described above, our board of directors took into account various factors, including their fiduciary duties to the Company; the relationships of the related parties described above to the Company; the material facts underlying each transaction; the anticipated benefits to the Company and related costs associated with such benefits; whether comparable products or services were available; and the terms the Company could receive from an unrelated third party.
We intend to establish formal policies and procedures in the future, once we have sufficient resources and have appointed additional directors. On a moving forward basis, our board of directors (currently consisting solely of Mr. Cohen) will continue to approve any related party transaction based on the criteria set forth above.

Director Independence
