PART I

ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

OVERVIEW

COMPANY HISTORY

Gopher Protocol Inc., (the “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our”, “Gopher” or "GOPH”) was incorporated on July 22, 2009, under the laws of the State of Nevada and is headquartered in Perris, California. On September 9, 2009, the Company filed a Form S-1 Registration Statement to provide for the registration of securities under the Securities Act of 1933. In the past, and continuing in the present to a limited degree, it had been principally engaged in offering consulting for foreign currency market trading to non-US resident clients, professionals and retail clients. The Company’s revenue to date was related to consulting services provided to one company in the foreign exchange business. Going forward, the Company is developing a real-time, heuristic based, mobile technology. The technology under development consists of a smart microchip, mobile application software and supporting software. The system contemplates the creation of a global network. Upon development, the Company expects that its microchip technologies may be installed within mobile devices or on SIM cards. The Company applied this technology into an electronic circuit including a proprietary microchip that is within a sticky patch package (the "Patch"). The Patch can be affixed to any object, mobile or static, which will enable the object to which it is affixed to be tracked remotely. It is our goal to allow the electronic circuit to communicate with other similar working patches via a separate, secured and private network. Upon affixing the Patch on an object, the circuit is turned on, after which the electronic circuit regularly transmits an identification signal in order to identify the device's geographical location. The Patch works in conjunction with a software application to provide tracking function operations. The system includes its own power source. The Patch will also perform an emergency feature. In the event of an emergency situation, one would simply peel the Patch off. Upon removing the Patch, it operates in a constant transmission mode, sending emergency signals. The Patch also alerts the user's friends and family about the user's location. No GPS or conventional network is needed.

Recent Developments

Effective April 4, 2014, the Company filed with the State of Nevada a Certificate of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation changing the Company’s number of authorized shares to 600,000,000. In connection with this, the Company filed an Issuer Company-Related Action Notification Form with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”). The reverse stock split of 5,000:1 was approved by FINRA on October 3, 2014.

Effective February 17, 2015, the Company filed with the State of Nevada a Certificate of Change to effect a reverse stock split of its outstanding and authorized shares of common stock at a ratio of 1 for 1,000. The effective date of the reverse stock split was February 24, 2015. On or about February 24, 2015, the Company implemented a 1,000-1 reverse split, with no fractional shares allowed. In addition, the Company filed Articles of Merger (the “Articles”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada to effectuate a name change. The Articles were filed to effectuate a merger between Gopher Protocol Inc., a Nevada corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and the Company, with the Company being the surviving entity. As a result, the Company’s name changed from “Forex International Trading Corp.” to “Gopher Protocol Inc.”. In connection with the above, the Company filed an Issuer Company-Related Action Notification Form with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. The Reverse Stock Split was implemented by FINRA on February 23, 2015. All figures in this filling have been adjusted accordingly to reflect this corporate action.

Our new CUSIP number is 38268V 108. As a result of the name change, our symbol has been changed to GOPH.

On March 4, 2015, the Company entered into a Territorial License Agreement (the “License Agreement”) with Hermes Roll LLC (“Hermes”), a Nevada limited liability company. Pursuant to the License Agreement, Hermes licensed to the Company, on an exclusive basis in the State of California, certain intellectual property relating to Hermes’s system and method for scheduling categorized deliverables, according to demand, at the customer’s location based on smartphone application and/or via the internet, in consideration of 100,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock of the Company (the “Preferred Shares”). The Preferred Shares have no liquidation rights. The Holder of the Preferred Shares will be entitled to vote on all matters submitted to shareholders of the Company on an as-converted basis. The Preferred Shares have a conversion price of $0.01 (the “Conversion Price”) and a stated value of $10.00 per share (the “Stated Value”). Each Preferred Share is convertible, at the option of the Holder, into such number of shares of common stock of the Company as determined by dividing the Stated Value by the Conversion Price.

On June 16, 2015, the Company and Hermes entered into that certain Amended and Restated Territorial License Agreement, amending and restating the Territorial License Agreement to grant the Company an exclusive worldwide license to the Technology. In addition, subject to the Company providing Hermes with $5,000,000 in working capital, for a period of one year, the Company will have the option to acquire a 100% of the membership interest of Hermes in consideration of 20,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company. Further, in the event the Company provides less than $5,000,000 to Hermes the Company will have the option to acquire a pro-rata portion of the membership interests of Hermes in consideration of a pro-rata amount of shares of common stock of the Company. On June 30, 2015, the Company appointed Dr. Rittman as Chief Technical Officer and a board member.  On August 20, 2015, the Company entered into an agreement with Dr. Rittman pursuant to which the parties agreed that (i) all inventions, improvements and developments made or conceived by Dr. Rittman, either solely or in collaboration with others pertaining to Company's business, will be the property of Company, and (ii) Dr. Rittman will assign to the Company any and all intellectual property related to the Company's consumer heuristic technology platform. Dr. Rittman is the Chief Technology Officer and a director of the Company as well as the Chairman of the Company's Advisory Board, which is currently being formed.

On April 25, 2015, the Company filed an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation increasing the authorized shares of common stock from 2,000,000 shares to 500,000,000 shares.

On April 22, 2015, Michael Murray was appointed by the Company as the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company. On April 23, 2015, Igwekali Reginald Emmanuel resigned as an executive officer and director of the Company to pursue other interests and Michael Murray was appointed as CEO, President, CFO, Secretary and Treasurer of the Company. Mr. Murray is an officer and shareholder of Hermes Roll LLC (“Hermes”). Mr. Murray is the owner of 9,900 shares of Series D Preferred Stock of the Company that is convertible at Mr. Murray’s election into 9,900,000 shares of common stock.

On June 30, 2015, the Company appointed Dr. Rittman as Chief Technical Officer and a board member. Dr. Rittman is the owner of 9,900 shares of Series D Preferred Stock of the Company that is convertible at Dr. Rittman’s election into 9,900,000 shares of common stock.

On August 20, 2015, the Company entered into an agreement with Dr. Rittman pursuant to which the parties agreed that (i) all inventions, improvements and developments made or conceived by Dr. Rittman, either solely or in collaboration with others pertaining to Company's business, will be the property of Company, and (ii) Dr. Rittman will assign to the Company any and all intellectual property related to the Company's consumer heuristic technology platform.

On or around March 14, 2016 the Company and Dr. Rittman entered into agreement intended to clarify the relationship between Dr. Rittman and the Company and the ownership of certain technology in connection with certain agreements previously entered into between Company and Dr. Rittman and with third parties. Specifically, the Company entered into that certain Territorial License Agreement with Hermes Roll LLC (to be formed) dated March 4, 2015, which such agreement was amended to expand the related territorial license to a worldwide license pursuant to that certain Amended and Restated Territorial License Agreement dated June 16, 2015 (the "Amended and Restated Territorial License Agreement"), and that certain Letter Agreement (the "Letter Agreement") entered into between Dr. Rittman and the Company dated August 20, 2015. The aforementioned agreements were tied to the funding of the Company in the minimum amount of $5,000,000 (the "Required Funding") and the assignment to the Company and/or ownership by the Company of all past, present and future technology in the form of intellectual property, including, but not limited to patents, trademarks, domains, applications, social media pages (e.g. Twitter, LinkedIn and landing pages) (collectively, the "IP"), which such IP was paid for exclusively by Dr. Rittman and/or his affiliated companies, was contingent upon the Company obtaining the Required Funding by no later than October 30, 2015 (the "Contingency"). Accordingly, it was agreed to by the parties that (i) all inventions, improvements and developments made or conceived by the Dr. Rittman, either solely or in collaboration with others pertaining to Company's business, would be the property of the Company subject to the Contingency. In the event the Contingency was not met, the Letter Agreement would be cancelled and rendered null and void. The Company acknowledged that the Company did not meet the Contingency, technically resulting in the cancellation of the Letter Agreement and rendering the Letter Agreement null and void. Moreover, the Company failed to meet its obligations under the Amended and Restated Territorial License Agreement, including the further development of the consumer heuristic technology platform, thereby creating a vacuum in its development in all aspects, including the ability to obtain funding, resulting in the need for Dr. Rittman’s partners to perform the necessary development work related to the above agreements. The original License Agreement will remain in place, while other agreements will be terminated and rendered null and void. Danny Rittman will resign as an officer of the Company, but will remain as Director and technical consultant of the Company, and will accommodate the needs of the Company in return for compensation to be agreed by the parties. All intellectual property will remain in the possession of Dr. Rittman and his private partners, and the Company shall remain a licensee per the terms of the original Territorial License Agreement, and will develop the first product with Dr. Rittman and his partners.

The Company and Dr. Rittman partners will commence development of the product via a private LLC to be incorporated under the name Guardian Patch, LLC (hereafter the “LLC”). Dr. Rittman and private investors will provide all initial funding for product development, including engaging third parties.

General Overview

The Company is in the process of developing a real-time, heuristic based, mobile technology. Upon development, the technology will consist of a smart microchip, mobile application software and supporting software that run on a server. The system contemplates the creation of a global network, worldwide. Gopher believes this will be the first system that is developed using a human, heuristic based analysis engine. Since the core of the system will be its advanced microchip that will be able to be installed any mobile device, worldwide, Gopher expects that this will result in an internal, private network between all mobile devices utilizing the device by providing mobile technology for computing power enhancement, advanced mobile database management/sharing, and additional mobile features.

Products:

The Company applied this technology into an electronic circuit including a proprietary microchip that is within a sticky patch package (the "Patch"). The Patch can be affixed to any object, mobile or static, which will enable the object to which it is affixed to be tracked remotely. It is our goal to allow the electronic circuit to communicate with other similar working patches via a separate, secured and private network. Upon affixing the Patch on an object, the circuit is turned on, after which the electronic circuit regularly transmits an identification signal in order to identify the device's geographical location. The Patch works in conjunction with a software application to provide tracking function operations. The system includes its own power source. The Patch will also perform an emergency feature. In the event of an emergency situation, one would simply peel the Patch off. Upon removing the Patch, it operates in a constant transmission mode, sending emergency signals. The Patch also alerts the user's friends and family about the user's location. No GPS or conventional network is needed.

While developing the core technology of the Company, and relaying on prior knowledge, the Company developed Gopher Epsilon Software, which is an internal, proprietary platform that has been developed as a designated tool for the mobile industry to accelerate signoff Reliability Verification (RV) with Accurate and Precise Interactive Error Detection and Correction. The software is targeted to assist microchip designers to produce power-aware, faster performance and longer life span integrated circuits. Ultimately, the software significantly prolongs a battery's life, enabling mobile and static electronic devices longer operation time and better performance.

The Company and its partners are preparing to introduce both of these new products to the market. The products will be presented for time-based license agreements utilizing a designated website on top of customary distributing channels for the product.

To date, the Company, through Dr. Rittman, has filed for 16 different patents, as well as trademarks and landing pages that represent the Company’s intellectual properties.

Operations

At December 31, 2015, the Company was focused on consulting for foreign currency market trading to non-US resident clients, professionals and retail clients. The Company’s revenue to date was related to consulting services provided to one company in the foreign exchange business. Going forward, the Company is developing a real-time, heuristic based, mobile technology. The technology under development consists of a smart microchip, mobile application software and supporting software.

Clients and Customers

Competition

As of the fiscal year 2015, the Company has exited the foreign exchange trading business, and is focused on consulting and leveraging the contacts and knowledge that the Company gained during its operating history. Going forward, the Company is developing a real-time, heuristic based, mobile technology. The technology under development consists of a smart microchip, mobile application software and supporting software. Although the way that the software works will be unique, the Company will be competing with other mobile devices at least in a peripheral way.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

As a Smaller Reporting Company, the Company is not required to include the disclosure under this Item 1A. Risk Factors.  Despite the fact that we are not required to provide risk factors, we consider the following factors to be risks to our continued growth and development:

We will be required to raise additional capital in order to implement any growth plans.

We plan to raise working capital that will allow us to conduct our business for the next twelve months. There is no guarantee regarding our ability to raise that capital. If adequate funds are not available, we may not be able to fund our expansion, take advantage of acquisition opportunities, develop or enhance products or services, respond to competitive pressures or maintain our public filings. Such inability could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We may need and be unable to obtain additional funding on satisfactory terms, which could dilute our shareholders or impose burdensome financial restrictions on our business.

Unforeseeable circumstances may occur which could compel us to seek additional funds. Furthermore, future events, including the problems, delays, expenses and other difficulties frequently encountered by start-up companies may lead to cost increases that could make the net proceeds of this offering insufficient to fund our proposed business plan. Thus, the proceeds of the offering may be insufficient to accomplish our objectives and we may have to borrow or otherwise raise additional funds to accomplish such objectives. We may seek additional sources of capital, including an additional offering of our equity securities, an offering of debt securities or obtaining financing through a bank or other entity. This may not be available on a timely basis, in sufficient amounts or on terms acceptable to us. Our inability to raise additional equity capital or borrow funds required to affect our business plan, may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and future prospects. Additionally, to the extent that further funding ultimately proves to be available, both debt and equity financing involve risks. Debt financing may require us to pay significant amounts of interest and principal payments, reducing the resources available to us to expand our existing businesses. Some types of equity financing may be highly dilative to our stockholders' interest in our assets and earnings. Any debt financing or other financing of securities senior to common stock will likely include financial and other covenants that will restrict our flexibility.

We will have inadequate capital to pay significant additional expenses we expect to incur as a public company and, as a result, we will be required to raise additional capital further diluting investors that participated in prior offerings.

We are a reporting company subject to the requirements of the Exchange Act.  In order to comply with such reporting requirements, we will incur additional administrative expenses including substantial legal and accounting expenses.  We expect such fees to be approximately $100,000 per year.  As a result, we will be required to raise additional debt or equity financing, of which there is no guarantee that such financing will be available or available on acceptable terms.  If we are required to raise additional funds or do not deploy our capital in the appropriate manner and if we raise such proceeds in the form of equity, our shareholders will be further diluted.

Our success will be dependent on attracting key and other personnel, particularly in the areas of management, technical services and customer support.

We believe that our success will depend on the continued efforts of management for the development of our platform and to pursue financial transactions to earn a return on capital. Such experience will be important to the establishment of our business. Our success also depends on having highly trained technical and customer support personnel.

We may have difficulty attracting and employing members to our senior management team and sufficient technical and customer support personnel to keep up with our growth needs. This shortage could limit our ability to increase sales and to sell services. Competition for personnel is intense. If we cannot hire suitable personnel to meet our growth needs, our business and operations will be negatively affected.

Our common stock price is highly volatile.

The market price of our common stock is highly volatile, as the stock market in general, and the market for Internet-related and technology companies in particular, have been highly volatile. Our shareholders may not be able to resell their shares of our common stock following periods of volatility because of the market's adverse reaction to this volatility.  Factors that could cause this volatility may include, among other things:

•           announcements of technological innovations and the creation and failure of B2B marketplaces;

•           actual or anticipated variations in quarterly operating results;

•           new sales formats or new products or services;

•           changes in financial estimates by securities analysts;

•           conditions or trends in the Internet, B2B and other industries;

•           changes in the market valuations of other Internet companies;

•           announcements by us or our competitors of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships or joint ventures;

•           changes in capital commitments;

•           additions or departures of key personnel;

•           sales of our common stock; and

•           general market conditions.

Many of these factors are beyond our control.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

As a Smaller Reporting Company, the Company is not required to include the disclosure under this Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments. At this time, there are no unresolved staff comments.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

Our headquarters are located at 23129 Cajalco Road, Perris, California 92570. The Company pays no office rent.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, the Company may be involved in various litigation matters, which arise in the ordinary course of business.  There is currently no litigation that management believes will have a material impact on the financial position of the Company.

In connection with the registration of GopherInside as a trademark, Intel Corporation has requested that the Company abandon the trademark in lieu of potential confusion with their trademark Intel Inside. The Company has taken the initial steps necessary to alleviate any concern Intel may have associated with mobile or computer platforms. Furthermore, the Company holds the opinion that GopherInside is by merit be different from “Intel + Inside” as two separate words. Additionally, a simple online search yields 1,189 live non-Intel marks that include the word “INSIDE.”  The Company learned that Intel filed on February 2, 2016 said Notice of Opposition to the trademark application. The Company has until March 16, 2016 to respond. The Company is considering its potential available action.

ITEM 4. MINE SAFERY DISCLOSURES

Not applicable.

Penny Stock

Our common stock is considered "penny stock" under the rules the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ Stock Market System, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or quotation system. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Commission, that:

The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with:

In addition, the penny stock rules that require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules; the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgement of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitably statement.

These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our stock.

General Overview

The Company is in the process of developing a real-time, heuristic based, mobile technology. Upon development, the technology will consist of a smart microchip, mobile application software and supporting software that run on a server. The system contemplates the creation of a global network, worldwide. Gopher believes this will be the first system that is developed using a human, heuristic based analysis engine. Since the core of the system will be its advanced microchip that will be able to be installed any mobile device, worldwide, Gopher expects that this will result in an internal, private network between all mobile devices utilizing the device by providing mobile technology for computing power enhancement, advanced mobile database management/sharing, and additional mobile features.

Products:

The Company applied this technology into an electronic circuit including a proprietary microchip that is within a sticky patch package (the "Patch"). The Patch can be affixed to any object, mobile or static, which will enable the object to which it is affixed to be tracked remotely. It is our goal to allow the electronic circuit to communicate with other similar working patches via a separate, secured and private network. Upon affixing the Patch on an object, the circuit is turned on, after which the electronic circuit regularly transmits an identification signal in order to identify the device's geographical location. The Patch works in conjunction with a software application to provide tracking function operations. The system includes its own power source. The Patch will also perform an emergency feature. In the event of an emergency situation, one would simply peel the Patch off. Upon removing the Patch, it operates in a constant transmission mode, sending emergency signals. The Patch also alerts the user's friends and family about the user's location. No GPS or conventional network is needed.

While developing the core technology of the Company, and relaying on prior knowledge, the Company developed Gopher Epsilon Software, which is an internal, proprietary platform that has been developed as a designated tool for the mobile industry to accelerate signoff Reliability Verification (RV) with Accurate and Precise Interactive Error Detection and Correction. The software is targeted to assist microchip designers to produce power-aware, faster performance and longer life span integrated circuits. Ultimately, the software significantly prolongs a battery's life, enabling mobile and static electronic devices longer operation time and better performance.

The Company and its partners are preparing to introduce both new products to the market. The products will be presented for time-based license agreements utilizing a designated website on top of customary distributing channels for the product

To date, the Company through Dr. Rittman has filed for 16 different patents, as well as trademarks and landing pages that represent the Company’s intellectual properties.

On January 7, 2016, the Company issued a press release regarding its filing of a new patent in connection with the Company's development of an electronic circuit within a sticky patch package for global tracking which will work with mobile software applications and other electronic circuits on a separate, secured, private network.

On February 2, 2016, the Company issued a press release regarding the introduction of its first product, GopherAntiTheft(TM), an electronic circuit including a proprietary microchip that is housed within a sticky patch (the "Patch"). The Patch can be affixed to any object, mobile or static, in order to track its location anywhere on Earth. The electronic circuit communicates with other similar working patches via a separate, secured, and private network. The Company announced that, in connection with its GopherInsight(TM) technology, the Company achieved Alpha Phase for its first product, under the internal project name: GopherAntiTheft(TM). The Alpha Phase is product testing for the software/device. The result of the test is that the Patch has been tested and is functional.

On February 10, 2016, the Company issued a press release, announcing that, in connection with its GopherInsight(TM) technology, the company achieved signal transmission for its product.

On February 15, 2016, the Company issued a press release announced that, in connection with its first product based on its GopherInsight(TM) technology, entered into a consulting and sales agreement with Nastec International Inc. ("Nastec"). Nastec will consult and advise the Company on the marketing and sale of certain products to law enforcement and military agencies including municipalities and/or governmental agencies worldwide outside the United States.

Results of Operations:

Fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014

A comparison of the statements of operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 is as follows:

Revenues:

The following table summarizes our revenues for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014:

The Company was able to leverage its consulting expertise in the area of foreign exchange during the first fiscal quarter of 2015 and 2014. Revenue dropped 25% in 2015, compared to the prior period. Revenue derived from one customer in both cases, but fewer billable hours were billed to the customer during the current period. Given the customer concentration, the customer has more leverage to negotiate favorable rates for consulting services. The Company is changing its business model going forward, and the description of that business can be found in the earlier pages of this document.

Operating expenses:

The following table summarizes our operating expenses for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014:

The Company disposed of certain debts between the periods, resulting in lower G&A costs for legal and professional services.

Other income (expenses):

The following table summarizes our other income (expenses) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014:

In 2015, the Company converted a number of notes for equity, and is carrying less debt than in 2014, resulting in less interest income and interest expense. In 2015, the Company had a higher amortized debt discount on the GV Global note, which is the only note payable remaining on the Company’s balance sheet.

On August 20, 2015, the Company entered into an agreement with Dr. Danny Rittman pursuant to which the parties agreed that (i) all inventions, improvements and developments made or conceived by Dr. Rittman, either solely or in collaboration with others pertaining to Company's business, will be the property of Company, and (ii) Dr. Rittman agreed to assign to the Company any and all intellectual property related to the Company's consumer heuristic technology platform, subject to certain conditions, which as of December 31, 2015 have not been met. As of the end of the fiscal year, the intellectual property developed by Dr. Rittman had not been assigned to the Company. The Company has expensed the stated value of that intellectual property in these financial statements.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash and cash equivalents were $21,051 and our accumulated deficit was $2,508,146 at December 31, 2015. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

We plan to raise working capital that will allow us to conduct our business for the next twelve months. There is no guarantee regarding our ability to raise that capital. We expect to use the proceeds to fund our short-term capital requirements including paying administrative expenses associated with maintaining our public company’s filings for the next 12 months. In order to implement our business plan and pay various administrative expenses on a minimal basis for the next 12 months, we expect that we will need approximately $200,000. The Company expects that its operating results will fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter in the future and will depend on a number of factors including the state of the worldwide economy and financial markets, which are outside the Company’s control.

Debt Financing Arrangements

As of December 31, 2015 – the Company has only one convertible note outstanding. The current note balance at December 31, 2015 is $38,924, which includes $6,851 of accrued interest.

The GV Note is convertible into shares of common stock of the Company, at the option of GV Global, at a conversion price of $0.00752734. GV Global has agreed to restrict its ability to convert the GV Note and receive shares of common stock such that the number of shares of common stock held by it in the aggregate and its affiliates after such conversion or exercise does not exceed 4.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock. The GV Note was issued to GV Global in reliance upon exemptions from registration pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) under the Securities Act of 1933. GV Global is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933. In addition, on March 2, 2015, the Company and GV Global amended that certain 10% Convertible Debenture (the “GV Debenture”) which debt underlying the GV Debenture was initially incurred on October 6, 2009 and exchanged for the GV Debenture on January 19, 2014. The parties agreed that the conversion price in the GV Debenture would not be impacted by the 1:1,000 stock split implemented by the Company on February 24, 2015 and will remain $0.0075273. Beneficial Conversion Feature (“BCF”) in the amount of $75,273 has not yet been fully amortized from the note balance. ·The unamortized balance at December 31, 2015 is $39,905.

As of December 31, 2014, notes payable and accrued interest consisted of:

a) Convertible Notes Payable

On October 6, 2009, the Company signed a note payable for $25,000 to Rasel Ltd. due on October 6, 2010, bearing interest at 4% per annum. The proceeds were used to pay for half of existing accounts payable for legal fees incurred at the Company’s inception. On October 20, 2009, the Company signed a note payable for $50,000 payable to Rasel due on October 20, 2010, bearing interest at 4% per annum (collectively, the “Rasel Note”). These proceeds were used to pay for startup costs, audit fees and future expenses. On January 22, 2010, the Company signed a note payable for $50,000 payable to Rasel due on October 30, 2011, bearing interest at 4% per annum. These proceeds were used for working capital and expenditures. On January 22, 2010, the Company signed an amendment to extend the maturity date of the promissory notes in the amount of $25,000 and $50,000 dated October 6, 2009 and October 20, 2009, respectively, to October 30, 2011. On March 2, 2011, the Company and Rasel agreed to extend the maturity of all notes to December 31, 2012, in consideration of adding a conversion feature to the notes with either a 5% discount to the market price or a fixed price of $0.60. The extension of maturity was effective as of December 30, 2010. About 50% of the note balance at December 31, 2013 ($73,812.50) was paid off in 2014 by Financier 2. On January 22, 2015, the Company entered into an Exchange Agreement with GV Global Communications Inc. (“GV Global”) – which hold the 50% of the remaining balance of the note in default, pursuant to which GV Global exchanged $75,273 in debt into a 10% Convertible Debenture in the principal amount of $75,273 (the “GV Note”). The GV Note matures January 21, 2017 (the “Maturity Date”) and interest associated with the GV Note is 10% per annum, which is payable on the Maturity Date. The GV Note is convertible into shares of common stock of the Company, at the option of GV Global, at a conversion price of $0.00752734. GV Global has agreed to restrict its ability to convert the GV Note and receive shares of common stock such that the number of shares of common stock held by it in the aggregate and its affiliates after such conversion or exercise does not exceed 4.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock. The GV Note was issued to GV Global in reliance upon exemptions from registration pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) under the Securities Act of 1933. GV Global is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933. The Company has accrued $1,248 of interest expense in 2014 in connection with this note.

At December 31, 2015, the balance of the Rasel note is zero.

b) Note Payable

At December 31, 2015, the Company recognized a prepaid expense of $14,887 from Glendon, which sold its debt to a third party for $197,717 at December 31, 2014. This money is owed to the Company as the third party overpaid for the debt by the amount of the prepaid expense. The balance at December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, including accrued interest, is $0 and $43,464, respectively. The note was reduced for revenue during the fiscal quarter from the note holder. The Company settled the debt outstanding in the amount of $43,464 by assigning the receipt of the revenue to the creditor.

c) Issuance of note payable to third party

On July 24, 2013, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with a third party financing source (“Financier 1”), for the issuance of an 8% convertible note in the principal amount of $42,500 (the “July 2013 Note”), of which $2,500 was for legal fees associated with the transaction.  The financing closed on July 31, 2013. The July 2013 Note bears interest at the rate of 8% per annum. All interest and principal must be repaid on April 29, 2014.  The July 2013 Note is convertible into common stock, at Financier 1’s option, at the greater of a 42% discount to the average of the three lowest closing bid prices of the common stock during the 10 trading day period prior to conversion or $0.00009.  In the event the Company prepays the July 2013 Note in full, the Company is required to pay to Financier 1 an amount in cash equal to all principal, interest and any other amounts owing multiplied by (i) 112% if prepaid during the period commencing on the closing date through 30 days thereafter, (ii) 121% if prepaid 31 days following the closing through 60 days following the closing and (iii) 126% if prepaid 61 days following the closing through 90 days following the closing and (iv) 131% if prepaid 91 days following the closing through 120 days following the closing and (v) 136% if prepaid 121 days following the closing through 150 days following the closing and (vi) 141% if prepaid 151 days following the closing through 180 days following the closing. After the expiration of 180 days following the date of the Note, the Company has no right of prepayment.   Financier 1 has agreed to restrict its ability to convert the July 2013 Note and receive shares of common stock such that the number of shares of common stock held by them in the aggregate and their affiliates after such conversion or exercise does not exceed 9.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock.   The total net proceeds the Company received from this offering were $42,500, less $2,500 in attorney’s fees. As of the date of the July 2013 Note, the Company is obligated on the Note issued to Financier 1 in connection with the offering. The July 2013 Note is a debt obligation arising other than in the ordinary course of business, which constitutes a direct financial obligation of the Company.  The Company claims an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended  (the “Act”) for the private placement of these securities pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Act and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder as  the  transaction  did not involve a public  offering,  Financier 1 is an accredited  investor, Financier 1 had access to information about the Company  and their  investment,  Financier 1  took the  securities  for investment and not resale, and the Company took appropriate measures to restrict the transfer of the securities. In April 2014, Financer converted the entire remaining note balance, and released the company from its debt, which is a zero balance. In June of 2014, the Company issued another note to the Financer payable for $32,500 (“June 2014 Note”), of which $2,500 was for legal fees associated with the transaction. The terms of the new note were similar to the terms described above, with a maturity of March 5, 2015. The June 2014 Note bears interest at the rate of 8% per annum. All interest and principal must be repaid on maturity.  The June 2014 Note is convertible into common stock, at Financier 1’s option, at the greater of a 42% discount to the average of the three lowest closing bid prices of the common stock during the 10 trading day period prior to conversion or $0.00001.  In the event the Company prepays the June 2014 Note in full, the Company is required to pay to Financier 1 an amount in cash equal to all principal, interest and any other amounts owing multiplied by (i) 112% if prepaid during the period commencing on the closing date through 30 days thereafter, (ii) 121% if prepaid 31 days following the closing through 60 days following the closing and (iii) 126% if prepaid 61 days following the closing through 90 days following the closing and (iv) 131% if prepaid 91 days following the closing through 120 days following the closing and (v) 136% if prepaid 121 days following the closing through 150 days following the closing and (vi) 141% if prepaid 151 days following the closing through 180 days following the closing. After the expiration of 180 days following the date of the Note, the Company has no right of prepayment.  Financier 1 has agreed to restrict its ability to convert the June 2014 Note and receive shares of common stock such that the number of shares of common stock held by them in the aggregate and their affiliates after such conversion or exercise does not exceed 4.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock.   The total net proceeds the Company received from this offering were $32,500, less $2,500 in attorney’s fees pursuant to the terms of this convertible agreement. As of the date of the June 2014 Note, the Company is obligated on the Note issued to Financier 1 in connection with the offering. The June 2014 Note is a debt obligation arising other than in the ordinary course of business, which constitutes a direct financial obligation of the Company.  The Company claims an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) for the private placement of these securities pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Act and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder as the transaction did not involve a public offering, Financier 1 is an accredited investor, Financier 1 had access to information about the Company and their investment, Financier 1 took the securities for investment and not resale, and the Company took appropriate measures to restrict the transfer of the securities.

As of December 31, 2014, the June 2014 Note is in default. The balance at December 31, 2015 is $21,330 and accrued interest is $1,380; the note payable balance was reduced by $11,170 due to conversions in the first quarter, and $1,459 of expenses reduced the principal balance as well. During the first fiscal quarter of 2015, Financer 1 sold the note to a third party in a deal to which the Company was not a party. The balance of the note at December 31, 2015 is zero. On November 11, 2015, the Company issued 23,700 shares to convert the note that had been held by Financier 1, that was sold to a third party in March 2015. This note had a value of $21,330 at the time of the conversion, and the note balance is zero as of December 31, 2015 as a result of the conversion.

d) Third Party Note Payable

On May 13, 2014, the Company entered into an agreement with a third party financing source (“Financer 2”), for the issuance of an 8% convertible note in the principal amount of $147,625 (the “May 2014 Note”).  In conjunction with the issuance of the May 2014 Note, an existing note holder (Rasel, owner of the Rasel Notes) agreed to have the proceeds of the May 2014 Note used to offset the amounts owed to them as evidenced by the Assignment of Convertible Debenture agreement dated May 12, 2014, between the holders of the Rasel Notes and Financer 2. The Assignment of Convertible Debenture agreement calls for the Financer 2 to make two payments of $73,812.50 each to the existing note holder (Rasel Notes). On May 13, 2014, the Financer 2 made the first payment to the existing note holder (Rasel Notes), however, Financier 2 defaulted on its obligation to make the second payment per the Assignment of Convertible Debenture agreement. As a result, the Company and Financier 2 have mutually agreed to release Financier 2 from its obligation for the second payment, and the other half of the note in the amount of $73,812.50 reverted back to Rasel. The May 2014 Note bears interest at the rate of 8% per annum. All interest and principal must be repaid on September 1, 2014.  The May 2104 Note is convertible into common stock, at Financier 2’s option, at the greater of a 42% discount to the average of the three lowest closing bid prices of the common stock during the 10 trading day period prior to conversion or $0.0001.   Financier 2 has agreed to restrict its ability to convert the May 2014 Note and receive shares of common stock such that the number of shares of common stock held by them in the aggregate and their affiliates after such conversion or exercise does not exceed 4.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock.  As of the date of the May 2014 Note, the Company is obligated on the Note issued to Financier 2 in connection with the offering. The May 2014 Note is a debt obligation arising other than in the ordinary course of business, which constitutes a direct financial obligation of the Company.  The Company claims an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended  (the “Act”) for the private placement of these securities pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Act and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder as the transaction did not involve a public offering, Financier 2 is an accredited investor, Financier 2 had access to information about the Company and their investment, Financier 2 took the securities for investment and not resale, and the Company took appropriate measures to restrict the transfer of the securities.

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, Financier 2 converted 64,400 post-split (322,000,000 pre-split) shares at an average valuation of approximately $0.98 on a post-split basis. The Company has accrued $957 in interest expense in 2014 in connection with this note. At December 31, 2015, the balance is zero, due to conversions during the fiscal year.

e) Convertible note payable to Blackbridge

On June 16, 2014, the Company entered into a set of agreements (collectively, the “Blackbridge Agreement”) with Blackbridge, a financial services firm. The Company and Blackbridge were discussing an equity line of credit, and the Company agreed to pay Blackbridge a commitment fee of 90,000,000 shares (18,000 shares post-split), and also issued a convertible note for $90,000 having a 5% interest rate that matures on December 16, 2014. The note can be converted after the maturity date. The conversion price is 90% multiplied by the market price, which is defined in the agreement as the lowest of the daily trading price for the common stock during the twenty (20) trading day period ending on the latest complete trading day prior to the conversion date.

The` Company computed the fair value of the conversion feature at the commitment date, based on the following management assumptions:

The fair value of the embedded conversion option on the commitment date was $7,238. The Company recorded a related debt discount of $7,238, which is amortized over the life of the debt. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, the Company amortized $7,238 of debt discount. At December 31, 2014, the Company re-measured the derivative liability and recorded a fair value of $0 due to the loan being in default. As a result of the re-measurement, the Company recorded a change in fair value associated with this derivative liability as an expense totaling $7,238 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014. The Company does not believe that the debt is valid, but has accrued the notes on its financial statements to be conservative. The reason that it does not believe the Blackbridge Agreement to be valid is that the parties agreed at the time that the Blackbridge Agreement was signed that it would take 90-120 days to file an S-1 to register the shares needed for the equity line of credit and that such commitment fee would not be payable until such time. The Blackbridge Agreement states, however, that the Company has only 60 days from the date that the Agreement was signed to file an S-1 to register the shares, which the parties agreed was an impossible requirement to meet. The failure to meet that requirement was an event of default in the Blackbridge Agreement, and the counterparty, which could terminate the Blackbridge Agreement at its sole discretion, did not grant a waiver of this clause, despite knowing that that requirement was unrealistic, particularly given the Company’s thin cash position. The inability to register the shares within the required timeframe guaranteed the default of the Company under the Blackbridge Agreement from the outset. As such, the Company believes that said Agreement is null and void, because it lacked the capacity to perform under the Blackbridge.

In 2014, the Company accrued $2,451 of interest expense associated with this note; an additional $397 of interest was accrued during the first quarter of 2015. As of December 31, 2015, the balance is zero.

Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates

Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of our financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, the reported amounts and classification of revenues and expenses during the periods presented, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis and material changes in these estimates or assumptions could occur in the future. Changes in estimates are recorded on the period in which they become known. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances and at that time, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates if past experience or other assumptions do not turn out to be substantially accurate.

We believe that the accounting policies described below are critical to understanding our business, results of operations, and financial condition because they involve significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements. An accounting is deemed to be critical if it requires a judgment or accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain, and if different estimates that could have been used, or if changes in the accounting estimates that are reasonably likely to occur periodically, could materially impact our financial statements. Other significant accounting policies, primarily those with lower levels of uncertainty than those discussed below, are also critical to understanding our financial statements. The notes to our financial statements contain additional information related to our accounting policies and should be read in conjunction with this discussion.

Presentation and Basis of Financial Statements

The accompanying audited condensed financial statements include the accounts of Gopher Protocol Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, DirectJV Investments, Inc. (together “Gopher” or the Company”) and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Presentation and Basis of Financial Statements

The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of Gopher Protocol, Inc., and its wholly-owned subsidiary, DirectJV Investments, Inc. (together “Gopher” or the Company”), and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in the accompanying financial statements include depreciable lives of property and equipment, valuation of beneficial conversion feature debt discounts, valuation of derivatives, valuation of share-based payments and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.

Cash

The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Notes and Short-Term Receivable

The notes and short-term receivable are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company measures the impairment of loans based on its historical loan collection experience and existing economic conditions. Impairment is recognized when management believes it is probable that payments will not be received on some portion of the loan, which is determined on an individual loan basis. The Company evaluates loans for impairment on an annual basis or when there are indications that the loan may not be collected. When management determines that a loan is impaired it is placed on non-accrual status, and an allowance for loan losses is established to recognize the estimated amount of impairment. Payments received on non-accrual loans are generally applied to the outstanding principal balance. Loans are removed from non-accrual status when management believes that the borrower will resume making the payments required by the loan agreement.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost and the related depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred. Renewals and betterments are capitalized. Upon the sale or retirement of an asset, the related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is recognized in the results of operations. As required by U.S. GAAP for long-lived assets, the Company evaluates the fair value of its property and equipment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Any impairment of value is recognized when the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. There were no impairment losses for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 and December 3, 2014.

Fair value measurements

Financial instruments and certain non-financial assets and liabilities are measured at their fair value as determined based on the assets highest and best use. GAAP has established a framework for measuring fair value that is based on a hierarchy that requires that the valuation technique used be based on the most objective inputs available for measuring a particular asset or liability. There are three broad levels in the fair value hierarchy that describe the degree of objectivity of the inputs used to determine fair value. The fair value hierarchy is set forth below:

Level 1 — inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 — inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

Level 3 — inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. They are based on best information available in the absence of level 1 and 2 inputs.

The carrying value of financial instruments, which include cash and cash equivalents, notes receivable, notes payable, and accrued expenses, approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.

Treasury Stock

Treasury stock is recorded at cost. The re-issuance of treasury shares is accounted for on a first in, first-out basis and any difference between the cost of treasury shares and the re-issuance proceeds are charged or credited to additional paid-in capital. During 2011, the Company bought back 8 post-split shares (38,000 pre-split) shares of its own shares. On December 31, 2014, the Company returned 40,000 post-split shares (200,000,000 pre-split shares) to treasury in connection with the dissolution of the licensing agreement with third party. During the first quarter of 2015, Company’s counsel, who had previously been issued 32,000 shares as compensation, returned those shares to Treasury. As of December 31, 2015, the Company has 1,040 treasury shares at cost basis.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB Codification Topic 740-10-25 (“ASC 740-10-25”) Income Taxes. Under ASC 740-10-25, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740-10-25, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount of tax benefits expected to be realized.

U.S. GAAP requires that, in applying the liability method, the financial statement effects of an uncertain tax position be recognized based on the outcome that is more likely than not to occur. Under this criterion the most likely resolution of an uncertain tax position should be analyzed based on technical merits and on the outcome that would likely be sustained under examination. The Company had no uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2015. The Company is current with its tax filing, and filed 2014 tax returns.

The Company’s federal income tax returns are no longer subject to examination by the IRS for the years prior to 2011, and the related state income tax returns are no longer subject to examination by state authorities for the years prior to 2011.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognized revenue on arrangements in accordance with FASB Codification Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition” (“ASC Topic 605”). Under ASC Topic 605, revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed and determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. We had revenue of $90,000 and $120,000 for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, 100% of the Company’s revenue was related to consulting services provided to one company in the foreign exchange business.

Derivative Financial Instruments

Fair value accounting requires bifurcation of embedded derivative instruments such as conversion features in convertible debt or equity instruments, and measurement of their fair value for accounting purposes. In determining the appropriate fair value, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. In assessing the convertible debt instruments, management determines if the convertible debt host instrument is conventional convertible debt and further if there is a beneficial conversion feature requiring measurement. If the instrument is not considered conventional convertible debt, the Company will continue its evaluation process of these instruments as derivative financial instruments.

Once determined, derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect fair value at each reporting period end, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in results of operations as an adjustment to fair value of derivatives. In addition, the fair value of freestanding derivative instruments such as warrants, are also valued using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. 

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

In accordance with accounting guidance now codified as FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share,” Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding the effects of any potentially dilutive securities. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential of shares of common stock outstanding during the period including stock options or warrants, using the treasury stock method (by using the average stock price for the period to determine the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants), and convertible debt or convertible preferred stock, using the if-converted method. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential of shares of common stock if their effect is anti-dilutive. Because of the Company’s net losses, the effects of stock options, convertible notes, and convertible preferred stock would be anti-dilutive and accordingly, is excluded from the computation of earnings per share. Diluted loss per share has not been computed for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 because any potential additional common shares would reduce the reported loss per share and therefore have an antidilutive effect.

Previous independent registered public accounting firm

On April 21, 2015 (the “Resignation Date”), Alan R. Swift, CPA, P.A. (the “Former Auditor”) resigned as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company.

The report of the Former Auditor on the Company’s financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and such reports were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principle, except that the reports included an explanatory paragraph relating to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

During the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 and through the Resignation Date, the Company has not had any disagreements with the Former Auditor on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the Former Auditor’s satisfaction, would have caused them to make reference thereto in their reports on the Company’s financial statements for such years.

During the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 and through the Resignation Date, there were no reportable events, as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

The Company has requested that our Former Auditor furnish us with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements, which he did.

On April 21, 2015 (the “Engagement Date”), the Company engaged Anton & Chia, LLP (“New Auditor”) as its independent registered public accounting firm for the Company’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2015. The decision to engage the New Auditor as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.

During the two most recent fiscal years and through the Engagement Date, the Company has not consulted with the New Auditor regarding either:

1.     application of accounting principles to any specified transaction, either completed or proposed,

or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and neither

a written report was provided to the Company nor oral advice was provided that the New Auditor

concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting,

auditing or financial reporting issue; or

2.     any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Regulation S-K, Item 304(a)(1)(iv)

and the related instructions) or reportable event (as defined in Regulation S-K, Item 304(a)(1)(v)).

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal Executive Officer and principal executive Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the applicable period to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

As a smaller reporting company, without a viable business and revenues, the Company does not have the resources to install a dedicated staff with deep expertise in all facets of SEC disclosure and GAAP compliance. As is the case with many smaller reporting companies, the Company will continue to consult with its external auditors and attorneys as it relates to new accounting principles and changes to SEC disclosure requirements. The Company has found that this approach worked well in the past and believes it to be the most cost effective solution available for the foreseeable future. The Company will conduct a review of existing sign-off and review procedures as well as document control protocols for critical accounting spreadsheets. The Company will also increase management’s review of key financial documents and records.

As a smaller reporting company, the Company does not have the resources to fund sufficient staff to ensure a complete segregation of responsibilities within the accounting function. However, Company management does review, and will increase the review of, financial statements on a monthly basis, and the Company’s external auditor conducts reviews on a quarterly basis. These actions, in addition to the improvements identified above, will minimize any risk of a potential material misstatement occurring.

Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations and provide only reasonable assurance, not absolute assurance, with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. The design of an internal control system reflects resource constraints and the benefits must be considered relative to the costs of implementing and maintaining the system.

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014. This assessment was based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on our assessment, other than the control weakness mentioned above, we believe that as of December 31, 2014 the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on those criteria. There is a division of duties problem, caused by the fact that we are thinly staffed. The reason for this thin staffing level is that fact that we do not currently have a viable business with revenues and cash flow to support higher levels of staff.

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 the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2015, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

On April 22, 2015, Michael Murray was appointed by Company as the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company. Michael Murray was appointed as CEO, CFO, Secretary and Treasurer of the Company. Mr. Murray is an officer and shareholder of Hermes Roll LLC ("Hermes"), a Nevada limited liability company to be formed. On March 4, 2015, the Company entered into a Territorial License Agreement with Hermes, which is the basis for the Company's current technology. Mr. Murray is the owner of 9,900 shares of Series D Preferred Stock of the Company that is convertible at Mr. Murray's election, upon the Company increasing its authorized shares of common stock, into 9,900,000 shares of common stock. There is no understanding or arrangement between Mr. Murray and any other person pursuant to which he was appointed as an executive officer and director.  Mr. Murray does not have any family relationship with any director, executive officer or person nominated or chosen by us to become a director or an executive officer.  Other than the Hermes transaction, Mr. Murray has not had direct or indirect material interest in any transaction or proposed transaction, in which the Company was or is a proposed participant, exceeding $120,000.

On June 30, 2015, Dr. Danny Rittman was appointed by Company as the Chief Technology Officer and a director of the Company, as well as the Chairman of the Company's Advisory Board. Dr. Rittman will be responsible for assembling the Advisory Board. Dr. Rittman is an officer and shareholder of Hermes Roll LLC ("Hermes"), a Nevada limited liability company to be formed. On March 4, 2015, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Territorial License Agreement with Hermes, which is the basis for the Company's current operations. Mr. Rittman is the owner of 9,900 shares of Series D Preferred Stock of the Company that is convertible at Dr. Rittman 's election, into 9,900,000 shares of common stock. There is no understanding or arrangement between Dr. Rittman and any other person pursuant to which he was appointed as an executive officer and director.  Dr. Rittman does not have any family relationship with any director, executive officer or person nominated or chosen by us to become a director or an executive officer.  Other than the Hermes transaction, Mr. Rittman has not had direct or indirect material interest in any transaction or proposed transaction, in which the Company was or is a proposed participant, exceeding $120,000.

On or around March 14, 2016 the Company and Dr. Danny Rittman entered into agreement intended to clarify the relationship between Dr. Rittman and the Company and the ownership of certain technology in connection with certain agreements previously entered into between Company and Dr. Rittman and with third parties. Specifically, the Company entered into that certain Territorial License Agreement with Hermes Roll LLC (to be formed) dated March 4, 2015, which such agreement was amended to expand the related territorial license to a worldwide license pursuant to that certain Amended and Restated Territorial License Agreement dated June 16, 2015 (the "Amended and Restated Territorial License Agreement"), and that certain Letter Agreement (the "Letter Agreement") entered into between Dr. Rittman and the Company dated August 20, 2015. The aforementioned agreements were tied to the funding of the Company in the minimum amount of $5,000,000 (the "Required Funding") and the assignment to the Company and/or ownership by the Company of all past, present and future technology in the form of intellectual property, including, but not limited to patents, trademarks, domains, applications, social media pages (e.g. Twitter, LinkedIn and landing pages) (collectively, the "IP"), which such IP was paid for exclusively by Dr. Rittman and/or his affiliated companies, was contingent upon the Company obtaining the Required Funding by no later than October 30, 2015 (the "Contingency").

In the event the Contingency was not met, the Letter Agreement would be cancelled and rendered null and void. The Company acknowledged that the Company did not meet the Contingency, technically resulting in the cancellation of the Letter Agreement and rendering the Letter Agreement null and void. Moreover, the Company failed to meet its obligations under the Amended and Restated Territorial License Agreement, including the further development of the consumer heuristic technology platform, thereby creating a vacuum in its development in all aspects, including the ability to obtain funding, resulting in the need for Dr. Rittman’s partners to perform the necessary development work related to the above agreements. The original License Agreement will remain in place, while other agreements will be terminated and rendered null and void. Dr. Rittman will resign as an executive officer of the Company, but will remain as Director and technical consultant of the Company, and will accommodate the needs of the Company in return for compensation to be agreed by the parties. All intellectual property will remain in the possession of Dr. Rittman and his private partners, and the Company shall remain a licensee per the terms of the original Territorial License Agreement, and will develop the first product with Dr. Rittman and his partners.

The Company and Danny Rittman partners will commence development of the product via a private LLC to be incorporated under the name Guardian Patch, LLC (hereafter the “LLC”). Dr. Rittman and private investors will provide all initial funding for product development, including engaging third parties.

INDEX TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

TABLE OF CONTENTS

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Gopher Protocol, Inc.

f/k/a Forex International Trading Corp. and Subsidiary

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Gopher Protocol, Inc. f/k/a/ Forex International Trading Corp. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2014, and the related consolidated statement of operations, changes in stockholders’ (deficiency)/equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2014. Gopher Protocol, Inc. f/k/a Forex International Trading Corp. and Subsidiary’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, 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. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Gopher Protocol, Inc. f/k/a Forex International Trading Corp. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2014, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the year ended December 31, 2014, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statement for the year ended December 31, 2014, has been prepared assuming that Gopher Protocol, Inc. f/k/a Forex International Trading Corp. and Subsidiary will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, Gopher Protocol, Inc. f/k/a Forex International Trading Corp. and Subsidiary has suffered recurring losses, and has an accumulated deficit of $2,412,030 as of December 31, 2014. This raises substantial doubt about Gopher Protocol, Inc. f/k/a Forex International Trading Corp. and Subsidiary's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 3. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company was not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2015, and the results of its operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit and its cash flow for the year ended December 31, 2015, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, these conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 1 - Organization and Nature of Business

Gopher Protocol Inc. (the “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our”, “Gopher” or "GOPH”) was incorporated on July 22, 2009, under the laws of the State of Nevada and is headquartered in Perris, California. On September 9, 2009, the Company filed a Form S-1 Registration Statement to provide for the registration of securities under the Securities Act of 1933. In the past, and continuing in the present to a limited degree, it had been principally engaged in offering consulting for foreign currency market trading to non-US resident clients, professionals and retail clients. The Company’s revenue to date was related to consulting services provided to one company in the foreign exchange business. From 2016 and going forward, the Company is developing a real-time, heuristic based, mobile technology. The technology under development consists of a smart microchip, mobile application software and supporting software that run on a server. The system contemplates the creation of a global network. Upon development, the Company expects that its microchip technologies may be installed within mobile devices or on SIM cards.

The Company is in the process of developing a real-time, heuristic based, mobile technology. Upon development, the technology will consist of a smart microchip, mobile application software and supporting software that run on a server. The system contemplates the creation of a global network, worldwide. Gopher believes this will be the first system that is developed using a human, heuristic based analysis engine. Since the core of the system will be its advanced microchip that will be able to be installed any mobile device, worldwide, Gopher expects that this will result in an internal, private network between all mobile devices utilizing the device by providing mobile technology for computing power enhancement, advanced mobile database management/sharing, and additional mobile features.

Products:

The Company applied this technology into an electronic circuit including a proprietary microchip that is within a sticky patch package (the "Patch"). The Patch can be affixed to any object, mobile or static, which will enable the object to which it is affixed to be tracked remotely. It is our goal to have the electronic circuit communicate with other similar working patches via a separate, secured and private network. Upon affixing the Patch on an object, the circuit is turned on, after which the electronic circuit regularly transmits an identification signal in order to identify the device's geographical location. The Patch works in conjunction with a software application to provide tracking function operations. The system includes its own power source. The Patch will also perform an emergency feature. In the event of an emergency situation, one would simply peel the Patch off. Upon removing the Patch, it operates in a constant transmission mode, sending emergency signals. The patch also alerts the user's friends and family about the user's location. No GPS or conventional network is needed.

While developing the core technology of the Company, and relaying on prior knowledge, the Company developed Gopher Epsilon Software, which is an internal, proprietary platform that has been developed as a designated tool for the mobile industry to accelerate signoff Reliability Verification (RV) with Accurate and Precise Interactive Error Detection and Correction. The software is targeted to assist microchip designers to produce power-aware, faster performance and longer life span integrated circuits. Ultimately, the software significantly prolongs a battery's life, enabling mobile and static electronic devices longer operation time and better performance.

The Company and its partners are preparing to introduce both new products to the market. The products will be presented for time-based license agreements utilizing a designated website on top of customary distributing channels for the product.

To date, the Company through Dr. Rittman has filed for 16 different patents, as well as trademarks and landing pages that represent the Company’s intellectual properties.

On May 1, 2014, the Company's stock listing was moved from the OTCQB to the OTC Pink Sheets due to the new OTCQB $.01 closing bid price requirement.

In September of 2014, the Company filed an amended Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Nevada to increase the authorized shares to 2,000,000,000 shares. In October of 2014, the Company implemented a 5,000-1 reverse split, with no fractional shares allowed. Effective February 17, 2015, the Company filed with the State of Nevada a Certificate of Change to effect a reverse stock split of its outstanding and authorized shares of common stock at a ratio of 1 for 1,000 (the “Reverse Stock Split”).

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Presentation and Basis of Financial Statements

The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of Gopher Protocol, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiary, DirectJV Investments, Inc. (together “Gopher” or the Company”), and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in the accompanying financial statements include depreciable lives of property and equipment, valuation of beneficial conversion feature debt discounts, valuation of derivatives, and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.

YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2015 AND 2014

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost and the related depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred. Renewals and betterments are capitalized. Upon the sale or retirement of an asset, the related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is recognized in the results of operations.

Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the estimated life of the asset or the lease term.

As required by U.S. GAAP for long-lived assets, the Company evaluates the fair value of its property and equipment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Any impairment of value is recognized when the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. There were no impairment losses for the period ended December 31, 2015 and the fiscal year December 31, 2014.

Intellectual property is outlined elsewhere in this document.

Fair value measurements

Financial instruments and certain non-financial assets and liabilities are measured at their fair value as determined based on the assets highest and best use. GAAP has established a framework for measuring fair value that is based on a hierarchy that requires that the valuation technique used be based on the most objective inputs available for measuring a particular asset or liability. There are three broad levels in the fair value hierarchy that describe the degree of objectivity of the inputs used to determine fair value. The fair value hierarchy is set forth below:

Level 1 — inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 — inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

Level 3 — inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. They are based on best information available in the absence of level 1 and 2 inputs.

The carrying value of financial instruments, which include cash, notes receivable, notes payable, and accrued expenses, approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.

Treasury Stock

Treasury stock is recorded at cost. The re-issuance of treasury shares is accounted for on a first in, first-out basis and any difference between the cost of treasury shares and the re-issuance proceeds are charged or credited to additional paid-in capital. During 2011, the Company bought back 8 post-split shares (38,000 pre-split) shares of its own shares. On December 31, 2014, the Company returned 40,000 post-split shares (200,000,000 pre-split shares) to treasury in connection with the dissolution of the licensing agreement with third party, which holds 1,040 shares as of December 31, 2015.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB Codification Topic 740-10-25 (“ASC 740-10-25”) Income Taxes. Under ASC 740-10-25, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740-10-25, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount of tax benefits expected to be realized.

U.S. GAAP requires that, in applying the liability method, the financial statement effects of an uncertain tax position be recognized based on the outcome that is more likely than not to occur. Under this criterion the most likely resolution of an uncertain tax position should be analyzed based on technical merits and on the outcome that would likely be sustained under examination. The Company had no uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2015. The Company is current on its tax return filing, and its 2014 tax returns been filed.

The Company’s federal income tax returns are no longer subject to examination by the IRS for the years prior to 2010, and the related state income tax returns are no longer subject to examination by state authorities for the years prior to 2010.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognized revenue on arrangements in accordance with FASB Codification Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition” (“ASC Topic 605”). Under ASC Topic 605, revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed and determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. We had revenue of $90,000 and $120,000 for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

During the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2015, 100% of the Company’s revenue was related to consulting services provided to one company in the foreign exchange business.

Derivative Financial Instruments

Fair value accounting requires bifurcation of embedded derivative instruments such as conversion features in convertible debt or equity instruments, and measurement of their fair value for accounting purposes. In determining the appropriate fair value, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. In assessing the convertible debt instruments, management determines if the convertible debt host instrument is conventional convertible debt and further if there is a beneficial conversion feature requiring measurement. If the instrument is not considered conventional convertible debt, the Company will continue its evaluation process of these instruments as derivative financial instruments.

Once determined, derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect fair value at each reporting period end, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in results of operations as an adjustment to fair value of derivatives. In addition, the fair value of freestanding derivative instruments such as warrants, are also valued using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. 

(Loss) Per Share

In accordance with accounting guidance now codified as FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share,” Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding the effects of any potentially dilutive securities. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential of shares of common stock outstanding during the period including stock options or warrants, using the treasury stock method (by using the average stock price for the period to determine the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants), and convertible debt or convertible preferred stock, using the if-converted method. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential of shares of common stock if their effect is anti-dilutive. Because of the Company’s net losses, the effects of stock options, convertible notes, and convertible preferred stock would be anti-dilutive and accordingly, is excluded from the computation of earnings per share. Diluted loss per share has not been computed for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 and the year ended December 31, 2014 because any potential additional common shares would reduce the reported loss per share and therefore have an antidilutive effect.

Note 3 - Liquidity and Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company sustained net losses of $95,116 and provided cash in operating activities of $21,051 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015. The Company had a working capital deficit of $89,242, stockholders’ deficit of $113,870, and accumulated deficit of $2,508,146 respectively, at December 31, 2015. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The Company is dependent upon its ability to generate revenues and its ability to continue receiving investment capital and loans from third parties to sustain its current level of operations. The Company is in the process of securing working capital from investors for common stock, convertible notes payable, and/or strategic partnerships. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in these efforts.

The financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue to function as a going concern, and do not include adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Based on the Company’s operating plan, existing working capital at December 31, 2015 was insufficient to meet cash requirements to support Company operations through December 31, 2015.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

As of the date of the July 2013 Note, the Company is obligated on the Note issued to Financier 1 in connection with the offering. The July 2013 Note is a debt obligation arising other than in the ordinary course of business, which constitutes a direct financial obligation of the Company.  The Company claims an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended  (the “Act”) for the private placement of these securities pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Act and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder as  the  transaction  did not involve a public  offering,  Financier 1 is an accredited  investor, Financier 1 had access to information about the Company  and their  investment,  Financier 1  took the  securities  for investment and not resale, and the Company took appropriate measures to restrict the transfer of the securities.

d) Third Party Note Payable

On May 13, 2014, the Company entered into an agreement with a third party financing source (“Financier 2”), for the issuance of an 8% convertible note in the principal amount of $147,625 (the “May 2014 Note”).  In conjunction with the issuance of the May 2014 Note, an existing note holder (Rasel, owner of the Rasel Notes) agreed to have the proceeds of the May 2014 Note used to offset the amounts owed to them as evidenced by the Assignment of Convertible Debenture agreement dated May 12, 2014, between the holders of the Rasel Notes and Financier 2. The Assignment of Convertible Debenture agreement calls for the Financier 2 to make two payments of $73,812.50 each to the existing note holder (Rasel Notes). On May 13, 2014, the Financier 2 made the first payment to the existing note holder (Rasel Notes), however, Financier 2 defaulted on their obligation to make the second payment per the Assignment of Convertible Debenture agreement. As a result, the Company and Financier 2 have mutually agreed to release Financier 2 from its’ obligation for the second payment, and the other half of the note in the amount of $73,812.50 reverted back to Rasel.

The May 2014 Note bears interest at the rate of 8% per annum. All interest and principal must be repaid on September 1, 2014.  The May 2104 Note is convertible into common stock, at Financier 2’s option, at the greater of a 42% discount to the average of the three lowest closing bid prices of the common stock during the 10 trading day period prior to conversion or $0.0001.  

Financier 2 has agreed to restrict its ability to convert the May 2014 Note and receive shares of common stock such that the number of shares of common stock held by them in the aggregate and their affiliates after such conversion or exercise does not exceed 4.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock.    As of the date of the May 2014 Note, the Company is obligated on the Note issued to Financier 2 in connection with the offering. The May 2014 Note is a debt obligation arising other than in the ordinary course of business, which constitutes a direct financial obligation of the Company. 

The Company claims an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended  (the “Act”) for the private placement of these securities pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Act and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder as the transaction did not involve a public offering, Financier 2 is an accredited investor, Financier 2 had access to information about the Company and their investment, Financier 2 took the securities  for investment and not resale, and the Company took appropriate measures to restrict the transfer of the securities.

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, Financier 2 converted 64,400 post-split (322,000,000 pre-split) shares at an average valuation of approximately $0.98 per share on a post-split basis. The Company has accrued $957 in interest expense in 2014 in connection with this note.

e) Convertible note payable to Blackbridge

On June 16, 2014, the Company entered into a set of agreements (collectively, the “Blackbridge Agreement”) with Blackbridge, a financial services firm. The Company and Blackbridge were discussing an equity line of credit, and the Company agreed to pay Blackbridge a commitment fee of 90,000,000 shares (18,000 shares post-split), and also issued a convertible note for $90,000 having a 5% interest rate that matures on December 16, 2014. The note can be converted after the maturity date. The conversion price is 90% multiplied by the market price, which is defined in the agreement as the lowest of the daily trading price for the common stock during the twenty (20) trading day period ending on the latest complete trading day prior to the conversion date.

The` Company computed the fair value of the conversion feature at the commitment date, based on the following management assumptions:

The fair value of the embedded conversion option on the commitment date was $7,238. The Company recorded a related debt discount of $7,238, which is amortized over the life of the debt. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, the Company amortized $7,238 of debt discount.

YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2015 AND 2014

At December 31, 2014, the Company re-measured the derivative liability and recorded a fair value of $0 due to the loan being in default. As a result of the re-measurement, the Company recorded a change in fair value associated with this derivative liability as an expense totaling $7,238 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014.

The Company does not believe that the debt is valid, but has accrued the notes on its financial statements to be conservative. The reason that it does not believe the Blackbridge Agreement to be valid is that the parties agreed at the time that the Blackbridge Agreement was signed that it would take 90-120 days to file an S-1 to register the shares needed for the equity line of credit and that such commitment fee would not be payable until such time. The Blackbridge Agreement states, however, that the Company has only 60 days from the date that the Agreement was signed to file an S-1 to register the shares, which the parties agreed was an impossible requirement to meet. The failure to meet that requirement was an event of default in the Blackbridge Agreement, and the counterparty, which could terminate the Blackbridge Agreement at its sole discretion, did not grant a waiver of this clause, despite knowing that that requirement was unrealistic, particularly given the Company’s thin cash position. The inability to register the shares within the required timeframe guaranteed the default of the Company under the Blackbridge Agreement from the outset. As such, the Company believes that said Agreement is null and void, because it lacked the capacity to perform under the Blackbridge.

In 2014, the Company accrued $2,451 of interest expense associated with this note; an additional $397 of interest was accrued during the first quarter of 2015.

As of December 31, 2015, the note balance is zero.
