Notes to Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Clean Coal Technologies, Inc. (“Clean Coal”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in Clean Coal’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position and the results of operations for the interim period presented herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or for any future period. Notes to the financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for fiscal 2014 as reported in the Form 10K have been omitted.

NOTE 2: GOING CONCERN

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, liabilities, and commitments in the normal course of business. The accompanying financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result if the Clean Coal is unable to continue as a going concern. Clean Coal has an accumulated deficit and a working capital deficit as of June 30, 2015 with no significant revenues anticipated for the near term. Management believes Clean Coal will need to raise capital in order to operate over the next 12 months. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, Clean Coal has also incurred significant losses since inception. Clean Coal’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis and ultimately to attain profitability. Clean Coal has limited capital with which to pursue its business plan. There can be no assurance that Clean Coal’s future operations will be significant and profitable, or that Clean Coal will have sufficient resources to meet its objectives. These conditions may raise doubt as to Clean Coal’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management may pursue either debt or equity financing or a combination of both, in order to raise sufficient capital to meet Clean Coal’s financial requirements over the next twelve months and to fund its business plan. There is no assurance that management will be successful in raising additional funds.

NOTE 3: CONSTRUCTION IN PROGRESS

Construction in progress of $4,161,304 as of June 30, 2015 consists of costs incurred related to the construction of a 2-ton/hour test plant in Oklahoma. The total cost of the project, including testing to take place at the AES site in Oklahoma, is estimated at $6,400,000 plus an additional $750,000 to move the plant to its permanent location. Commissioning of the test plant commenced in November, 2015 with full testing expected in January, 2016. It is estimated to cost an additional $2,200,000 to move the test facility to AES and complete testing. It is further expected to cost $750,000 to move the test facility to a permanent site at the end of quarter one 2016. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, $873,026 was paid towards the construction of the plant and interest of $75,334 was capitalized.

NOTE 4: RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

As management has not received any consistent salary over several years all accruals for salary and bonuses to officers and directors are included in accrued liabilities in the balance sheet and totaled $2,427,906 and $1,998,337 as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the company borrowed an aggregate of $50,000 from an Officer. This loan was made at zero percent interest and was to be repaid upon adequate funding being in place. As of June 30, 2015 the outstanding balance of this note was $2,800 with $47,200 having been repaid.

As of June 30, 2015, the Company had outstanding convertible notes payable of $1,384,470, net of unamortized discounts of $1,949,117. Of the outstanding balance as of June 30, 2015, $1,358,999, net of unamortized discounts of $326,235, is due within one year and classified as a current liability. The outstanding convertible notes of the Company are unsecured, bear interest between 8% and 12% per annum, mature between July 2015 and May 2018 and are convertible into common stock at fixed rates between $0.08 and $0.825 per share and at variable rates between 55% and 75% of the quoted market price of the Company’s common stock. In addition, $1,648,353 of the notes issued during the six months ended June 30, 2015 are also convertible into 3 year common stock warrants at a conversion rate of $0.08 per warrant. The warrants will be exercisable at $0.10 per share. All notes that were convertible during the six months ended June 30, 2015 were accounted for as derivative liabilities (see Note 6). Aggregate amortization of the debt discounts on convertible debt for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $417,484 of which $40,534 was capitalized as construction in progress.

Nonconvertible Debt

As of March 31, 2015, the Company had outstanding notes payable to former affiliates of the Company of $413,185. The notes payable of the Company are unsecured, bear no interest and are due on demand.

NOTE 6: DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES

During 2014, notes issued by the Company became convertible and qualified as derivative liabilities under ASC 815. In addition, the outstanding nonemployee common stock options and outstanding common stock warrants became tainted and were required to be accounted for as derivative liabilities under ASC 815.

As of December 31, 2014, the aggregate fair value of the outstanding derivative liabilities was $1,765,695. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company borrowed an additional $1,886,000, net of original issuance discounts, under convertible notes. Also during the six months ended June 30, 2015, convertible notes with an aggregate principal amount of $50,000 were converted into common shares. As of June 30, 2015, the aggregate fair value of the outstanding derivative liabilities was $12,284,768. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, the net loss on the change in fair value of derivative liabilities was $8,651,815

The Company estimated the fair value of the derivative liabilities using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following key assumptions during 2014 and 2013:

	2015			2014
Expected dividends		-	%		-	%
Expected term (years)		0.04 – 4.17			0.01 – 4.67
Volatility		156% - 237	%		130% - 223	%
Risk-free rate		0.03% - 1.37	%		0.01% - 1.82	%

The Company determines the fair market values of its financial instruments based on the fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The following three levels of inputs may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1	Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2	Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3	Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The Company uses Level 3 inputs to estimate the fair value of its derivative liabilities.

Table of Contents

The following table sets forth by level with the fair value hierarchy the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014:

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total

Overview

Over the past decade, Clean Coal Technologies, Inc. has developed processes that address what we believe are the key technology priorities of the global coal industry. We currently have three processes in our intellectual property portfolio:

The original process, called Pristine, is designed to remove moisture and volatile matter, rendering a high-efficiency, cleaner thermal coal. The process has been tested successfully on bituminous and subbituminous coals, and lignite from various parts of the United States and from numerous countries around the world.

Our second process, called Pristine-M, is a low-cost coal dehydration technology. In tests, this process has succeeded in drying coal cheaply and stabilizing it using volatile matter released by the feed coal. Our coal testing plant currently under construction is designed to prove this process on a scale that can be expanded to a commercial facility.

Our third process, called Pristine-SA, is designed to eliminate 100% of the volatile matter in the feed coal and to achieve stable combustion by co-firing it with biomass or natural gas. The idea is to produce a clean fuel that eliminates the need for emissions scrubbers and the corollary production of toxic coal ash. We anticipate that treated coal that is co-fired with other energy resources will burn as clean as natural gas.

Anticipated Benefits of the Technology:

·	Reduction of undesired emissions and greenhouse gases through the removal of compounds that are not required for combustion in conventional boilers.

Cost savings and environmental impact reduction. Our pre-combustion solution is anticipated to be much less expensive than post-combustion solutions such as emissions scrubbers. Not only are the latter prohibitively expensive, they produce coal ash containing the “scrubbed” compounds, which is dumped in toxic waste disposal sites where it may pose continuing environmental risk. Coal treated using our processes may eliminate the need for post-combustion emissions scrubbers and the resulting toxic ash.

Potential use of compounds removed from treated coal. Volatile matter captured in the Pristine process is removed in the form of hydrocarbon liquids that we believe will be easily blended with crude oil or used as feedstock for various products. For example, sulfur, which can be removed using the Pristine process, is a basic feedstock for fertilizer. The harvesting of hydrocarbon liquids from abundant, cheap coal is a potentially lucrative side benefit of our processes.

·	Energy Independence. To the extent that volatile matter is removed from coal, coal’s use as an energy resource is greatly improved, enabling the United States and other coal-rich countries to move towards energy independence owing to coal’s greater abundance.

Development Status:

Pristine process. Pristine process successfully lab tested on small scale and through advanced computer modeling. Construction of larger scale testing facility depends on receipt of additional funding.

Pristine-M. Construction of the test plant in Oklahoma is complete and commissioning commenced in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015. Through June 30, 2015 we have paid $4,161,304 towards the plant and preparation work for the testing and estimated completion and testing costs are $2,200,000. An additional estimated $750,000 is required to transport the test plant to a permanent location at end of quarter one, 2016.

Pristine-SA process. Pristine SA process analysis is at a very early stage. Further research and development is expected post completion of the coal testing plant.

Business Outlook

·	Jindal Steel & Power expected to contract first commercial plant in the first quarter 2016 if coal testing plant testing is positive. Jindal plans to inspect prototype plant once testing is complete.

·	Several multinational corporations have undertaken due diligence on our processes and have scheduled or are scheduling site visits to the coal testing plant in Oklahoma.

·	Numerous discussions continuing with various domestic and international coal producers, mine operators and power plant operators about our technology and its potential application.

Factors Affecting Results of Operations

Our operating expenses include the following:

· Consulting expenses, which consist primarily of amounts paid for technology development and design and engineering services;

· General and administrative expenses, which consist primarily of salaries, commissions and related benefits paid to our employees, as well as office and travel expenses;

· Research and development expenses, which consist primarily of equipment and materials used in the development and testing of our technology; and

· Legal and professional expenses, which consist primarily of amounts paid for patent protections, audit, disclosure, and reporting services.

Results of Operations

The following information should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes appearing elsewhere in this Report. We have generated limited revenues from inception to date. We are also in preliminary discussions with companies, business groups, consortiums in the USA and Asia to license our technology, which, if successful, could realize limited short-term revenue opportunities from the signing of technology licensing agreements. Royalty revenue is not estimated until approximately 16 -18 months after the successful testing of the plant, currently anticipated in the first quarter of fiscal 2016, and an EPC contract has been signed to build a commercial scale facility.

For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014

Revenues

We have generated no revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. In the third quarter of fiscal 2012, we received an initial license fee of $375,000 from Jindal paid pursuant to the signing of our coal testing plant construction contract. The balance of $375,000 will be due upon the successful testing of the coal testing plant, anticipated in the first quarter of fiscal 2016. We do not anticipate additional license revenues until the coal testing plant has been successfully tested, and do not expect to receive any royalty fees for approximately 16 to 18 months after an EPC contract has been signed to build a commercial scale facility.

Operating Expenses

Our operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2015 totaled $655,443 and for the three months ending June 30, 2014 totaled $605,716. Our operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2015 totaled $1,751,319 and for the six months ending June 30, 2014 totaled $1,927,735.The primary component of the operating expenses in these periods was for shares issued for services, officers’ salaries, and consulting fees.

We recorded stock-based compensation consisting of options expense and common stock issued for services of $842,980 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, compared to $748,127 for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

Employees

As of June 30, 2015, we had three full-time executives, and one full-time administrative employee. President and CEO Robin Eves, Chief Operations Officer, Ignacio Ponce de Leon and Chief Financial Officer, Aiden Neary have written employment agreements. Messrs. Eves and Ponce de Leon received no compensation for their participation on the Board of Directors. In June, 2015, Mr. Ponce de Leon retired from the company in both his capacity as COO and also as a member of the board of directors.

Net Income/Loss

For the six months ended June 30, 2015, we experienced net losses of $11,080,241 compared to $3,788,687 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. For the three months ended June 30, 2015, we experienced net losses of $9,262,904 compared to $2,196,886 for the three months ended June 30, 2014.

We anticipate losses from operations will increase during the next six months due to costs associated with the test plant completion and testing, as well as anticipated increased payroll expenses as we add necessary staff and increases in legal and accounting expenses associated with maintaining a reporting company. We expect that we will continue to have net losses from operations for several years until revenues from operating facilities become sufficient to offset operating expenses, unless we are successful in the sale of licenses for our technology once the coal testing plant testing is complete.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have generated minimal revenues since inception. We have obtained cash for operating expenses through advances and/or loans from affiliates and stockholders, the sale of common stock, the issuance of loans and convertible debentures and the receipt of $375,000 in license fees from Jindal as described above.

Net Cash Used in Operating Activities. Our primary source of operating cash during the six months ended June 30, 2015, was borrowings on related party debt, third party debt and convertible debt. Our primary uses of funds in operations were the payment of professional and consulting fees, general operating expenses and the construction of the coal testing plant.

Net cash used in operating activities, was $276,934 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to net cash used of $309,506 for the same period in 2014. Non-cash items for the six months ended June 30, 2015 totaled $10,171,902 and consisted of amortization of debt discounts, loan default and standstill fees added to principal, stock-based compensation and a loss on the change in the fair value of derivative liabilities.

Net Cash Used In Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014 consisted of $873,026 paid for the construction of the testing plant. This compares to $12,471 paid for the construction of the testing plant during the six months ended June 30, 2014.

Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities. Net cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2015 totaled $1,183,498 consisting of borrowings on convertible debt, net of original issue discounts, of $1,886,000 and borrowings on related party debt of $50,000 offset by payments on debt of $705,302 and payments on related party debt of $47,200.

Cash Position and Outstanding Indebtedness

Our total indebtedness at June 30, 2015 was $18,172,044, which consists almost entirely of current liabilities. Current liabilities consist primarily of accounts payable, accounts payable to related parties, accrued liabilities, short-term debt, convertible debt, related party debt and derivative liabilities totaling $18,148,572. At June 30, 2015, we had current assets of $34,667 in cash. Our working capital deficit at June 30, 2015 was $18,111,905. We had construction in progress of $4,161,304 as of June 30, 2015.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

The following table summarizes our contractual cash obligations and other commercial commitments at June 30, 2014.

	Payments due by period
	Total		Less than 1 year		1 to 3 years		3 to 5 years		After 5 years
Facility lease (1)	$	4,179	$	4,179	$	-	$	-	$	-
Total contractual cash obligations	$	4,179	$	4,179	$	-	$	-	$	-

(1)	Our New York office lease commencing February 1, 2014, is on a month to month basis, at a monthly rate of $4,179 per month.

SAIC Energy Environment & Infrastructure (SEE&I), our engineering consultant has tentatively estimated construction costs for each one million short ton coal complete cleaning facility of approximately $120 million (excluding land costs) or costs for a similar size Pristine-M-only facility of approximately $45-50 million (excluding land costs). Under the terms of our consulting agreement with SEE&I, we are obligated to pay to SEE&I a fee representing five percent of all gross revenues received by us from the sale of our technology, the operation of franchised plants utilizing the technology, or revenue received on any other basis that is related to the technology. This fee will remain in effect for a period of 15 years, commencing from the date that we receive our initial revenue stream from operations. All intellectual property rights associated with new art developed by SEE&I remain our property, however SEE&I would have a “right to use” the intellectual property provided it is deployed in non-competitive projects.

Construction of the test plant in Oklahoma is underway with completion and testing anticipated to be completed in the first quarter of fiscal 2016. We have paid $4,161,304 towards the plant and initial setup for the testing facility and estimate completion and testing will require an additional $2,200,000. In May, 2015, the company secured adequate financing to complete the fabrication of the test facility and moved it to the testing site at AES in Oklahoma in September, 2015. The test plant completed commissioning and commenced testing in fourth quarter 2015. Testing is expected to continue through quarter one 2016 at what point the plant will be moved to a permanent location.

Based on our current operational costs and including the capital requirements for our project deployments, we estimate we will need a total of approximately $3,500,000 to fund the Company for the balance of fiscal year 2015 and an additional $5,000,000 to continue for the following fiscal year (2016) or until an initial commercial plant is up and running. Assuming we succeed in testing our plant, we believe we will have sufficient funding to meet both the additional costs of the test plant construction and funding for our operations through fiscal 2016, although we need some interim funding until the test plant is operational. We are also actively pursuing technology license and royalty agreements in order to begin construction of other facilities without incurring the capital costs associated with the construction of future plants.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have not and do not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of establishing off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. Therefore, we do not believe we are exposed to any financing, liquidity, market or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in such relationships.

Table of Contents

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to changes in prevailing market interest rates affecting the return on our investments but do not consider this interest rate market risk exposure to be material to our financial condition or results of operations. We invest primarily in United States Treasury instruments with short-term (less than one year) maturities. The carrying amount of these investments approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities. Under our current policies, we do not use derivative financial instruments, derivative commodity instruments or other financial instruments to manage our exposure to changes in interest rates or commodity prices.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of June 30, 2015, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our financial disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to our limited internal resources and lack of ability to have multiple levels of transaction review. There is a lack of appropriate segregation of duties within the Company, there is no management oversight, no control documentation being produced, and no one to review control documentation if it was being produced. As of June 30, 2015, we have three full time officers of the company. In June, 2015, Mr. Ponce de Leon retired from the company in both his capacity as COO and also as a member of the board of directors. In November, 2013, we employed a Chief Financial Officer who is in the process of implementing financial controls creating a segregation of duties within the Company.

There were no changes in disclosure controls and procedures that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially effect, our disclosure controls and procedures. We do not expect to implement any changes to our disclosure controls and procedures until there is a significant change in our operations or capital resources.
