PART I


ITEM 1. BUSINESS


We are a Delaware corporation whose principal office is located at 60 E. 42nd Street, 46th Floor, New York, NY. Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms “we”, “us”, “our”, or “the Company” as used herein refer to Receivable Acquisition & Management Corporation and our subsidiaries, Cornerstone Program Advisors LLC and Sustainable Energy Industries, Inc. (“Sustainable”). The Company does business as Cornerstone Sustainable Energy.


Description of the Business


The Company specializes in delivering energy infrastructure and alternative energy solutions to a wide range of commercial customers and institutions such as hospitals and universities. The Company has begun to expand and transform its business to take advantage of opportunities in the alternative energy and clean energy arenas.


The Company has two major business components. The first business component is the management of infrastructure projects for commercial and institutional customers.  These projects typically involve some combination of energy infrastructure components, including electrical power generation, steam production, or chilled water production, as well as the infrastructure to distribute these services. Generally, the Company acts as the representative of the customer in overseeing and managing an infrastructure project, or can take the role of project developer under an agreement with the customer. The Company has competitors, some of which are very large and well-recognized, but, in the non-profit hospital and university market in its geographical scope of operation, has developed a reputation for excellence and an established market position. The Company operates in this first business component under its subsidiary, Cornerstone Program Advisors LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Cornerstone”), which it acquired in a merger on May 15, 2013 (the “Merger”). As part of this component, the Company offers to arrange leasing and other financing arrangements for projects and equipment, and participations in power purchase agreements from developed projects, for fees and financial participations. The Company has the capability of arranging very favorable financing for projects involving non-profits.


The second business component is the anticipated commercialization of engine technology which converts low-grade heat to mechanical energy. The Company is actively marketing the technology particularly for power generation. While the Company has not yet manufactured or deployed an engine specifically configured for power generation, significant progress has been made on the engineering of such an engine, and has existing engines it is using for testing and demonstration purposes. The technology is non-polluting and entirely “green,” and Management believes, based on its knowledge of the industry, is arguably superior to all other lower-temperature engine technologies, such as those utilizing the organic Rankine physical cycle, and operates at lower temperature ranges and heat flow volume than any others in the market. The engines in this configuration promise to deliver substantial cost savings in most client applications, and are not unusually costly as compared to competing technologies. Although the engine is readily built to order of common parts and components, a material investment may be required by the Company. The Company has not yet generated any revenues through this business component.   


The Company’s primary markets are (i) large domestic non-profit institutions and organizations, particularly where electricity rates are high, and currently localized in the Northeast; (ii) the waste-heat-to-energy and geothermal marketplace primarily in the Western Hemisphere, typically power generation; and (iii) the independent power producer market, primarily domestic but extending through the Western Hemisphere. All of these markets are large and multifaceted with no dominant customers.


Cornerstone is an energy infrastructure project management company focused on healthcare and higher learning institutions. Sustainable is focused on the alternative energy business, with an emphasis on its licensed “green” engine technology.  


Prior to 2013, the Company was in the business of acquiring and collecting portfolios of performing, sub-performing and non-performing consumer and commercial receivables. The Company is no longer in this business.

Strategy


The Company is pursuing 3 growth initiatives:  


(1)  Acquiring and applying “cleantech solutions” - technology, equipment and methods to solve client needs and provide a competitive advantage, such as cleantech engine technology.  In the first such acquisition, the Company merged with the holder of manufacturing and sales rights for the engine technology described above. The Company has also finalized an exclusive manufacturing agreement for this engine with one of the country’s premier engineering and engine manufacturing companies.  


(2)  Making strategic acquisitions and entering into strategic joint ventures in and around its core areas of expertise. The first of these was in cleantech, described directly above.  Other potential acquisition or merger targets are continually under review. They must meet rigorous financial and growth criteria, offer a strategic fit, and expand the market or competitive position of the Company. Targets include those in the clean water, bio incineration, waste heat recovery, and clean engine technologies.


(3)  Establishing and leveraging alliances, a number of which are established or in some level of development. We also intend to source business by helping companies offer a uniquely competitive financing and development platform to existing and prospective non-profit clients such as universities, hospitals and municipalities.


For the most part, power technologies are well known and widely available. The Company is focused on selecting the right technology or technologies for each project, and maintaining a constant focus on both cost effectiveness for the client and financial returns to the Company. To enhance its competitive position, however, the Company will focus on obtaining exclusive market positions and enhancing its technological strengths.


Industry Overview


The general marketplace for the Company’s offerings is composed of large consumers and producers of power which have an interest in (a) reducing energy consumption, (b) reducing the cost of energy, (c) improving the environmental profile of their energy production, or (d) some combination of these. The Company is engaged in this overall energy infrastructure industry at two separate points. These sub-industries, or markets, are relatively distinct, albeit related, so each will be described separately.


One market is the component composed of consumers of large amounts of energy, including large hospitals, colleges and universities. These institutions often operate large, and frequently aging, centralized utility plant and infrastructure installations which provide heat (typically steam), cooling (chilled water), and power to a sizeable campus of buildings. Energy infrastructure upgrades and improvements are often required to provide for expansion of campus facilities, replace aging equipment, and reduce the cost and/or the amount of their energy consumption. The Company, acting as the client’s representative, helps design and develop upgrades to or replacements of such facilities, and then oversees the implementation projects for these institutions. The Company may act as project developer or co-developer, and offers to arrange or assist in the project financing.  Projects are typically multi-year commitments and often complex.


The other market is the waste-heat-to-energy industry. The industry involves technologies for converting wasted heat or geothermal heat to power production. One example is the enormous and largely unexploited low-grade geothermal market. Vast geothermal resources are currently untapped because earlier technologies were incapable of converting low-grade heat and low volume heat flows into power. The Company has a technology that can be utilized to convert this enormous natural resource into baseload power.


This market, typical of the power production industry, relies heavily on experience, and the Company’s technology is relatively new and has little track record.  However, the scale of the available resource is so sizeable that there is a great deal of interest in developing it. The market potential has not been accurately measured because no technology existed to develop it. However, it is estimated that the energy available from lower temperature geothermal resources is a multiple of the energy tapped at higher temperature levels. The geothermal market in the U.S. alone has approximately 3200MW of installed capacity. Almost all the added capacity increase in the past two decades has utilized lower temperature resources, yet not as low as those at which the Company’s technology can operate.




2



Currently, an additional 4300MW is in some stage of development, representing an anticipated investment of some $13-$17 billion. Although the Company’s technology can be configured to operate in the entire range of temperatures, its prime market is in these untapped lower temperature resources. This is in addition to a related market opportunity for adding this technology to capture waste heat from existing higher-temperature geothermal plants in a “bottoming cycle”, enabling them to increase output from an already-tapped resource.


The Company's technology is also well suited to the waste heat recovery market as related to industries that create wasted heat as a result of their manufacturing or production processes.  This market is well defined and, according to a recent report published by the U.S. Department of Energy, “The United States industrial sector accounts for approximately one third of all energy used in the United States, consuming approximately 32 quadrillion (a million billion) BTUs of energy annually and emitting about 1,680 million metric tons of carbon dioxide associated with this energy use.” The opportunity in the waste heat recovery market is substantial.  The report continues, “A valuable alternative approach to improving overall energy efficiency is to capture and reuse the lost or ‘waste heat’ that is intrinsic to all industrial manufacturing. During these manufacturing processes, as much as 20% to 50% of the energy consumed is ultimately lost via waste heat contained in streams of hot exhaust gases and liquids, as well as through heat conduction, convection, and radiation from hot equipment surfaces and from heated product streams.  In some cases, such as industrial furnaces, waste heat recovery can improve energy efficiency by 10% to as much as 50%.”


The advantage of recapturing and utilizing waste heat is that it typically replaces purchased electric power, much of which does and will continue to require burning fossil fuels, or directly replaces fuels which must be purchased and combusted. Thus it actually can directly reduce emissions and eliminate transmission losses. Projections of market potential are truly enormous, with unrecovered waste heat in industrial processes estimated at half a quintillion (a billion billion) BTUs.


Employees


As of December 31, 2015, the Company had four full-time consultants as officers under consulting agreements with Tom Telegades, the CEO and interim CFO; Peter Fazio, the COO; Wallace Baker, the Chief Administrative Officer; and James Valentino, the non-executive Chairman; and no part-time employees. See Item 11 “Executive Compensation” below. Carefully selected contractors are used for managing infrastructure projects, matched to the needs of these clients. Their staffing levels vary depending on the number and size of infrastructure projects underway. The Company prefers to outsource non-core, non-critical activities wherever possible, including manufacturing activities.


ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS


The Company is not required to provide the information called for in this item due to its status as a Smaller Reporting Company.


ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS


None.


ITEM 2. PROPERTIES


The Company maintains its headquarters office at 60 E. 42nd Street, 46th Floor, New York, NY 10165. The Company leases facilities for executive and administrative purposes in New York City and nearby suburbs on an as-needed basis for a total at year end 2015 of approximately $4,600 a month. No leases exceed one year in duration.


ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS


The Company is not a party to any material pending legal proceedings or a proceeding being contemplated by a governmental authority nor is any of the Company’s property the subject of any pending legal proceedings or a proceeding being contemplated by a governmental authority.

Other Proceedings


In connection with a November 5, 2013, proceeding commenced by the Securities Division of the Arizona Corporation Commission (the “ACC”) the Company learned that each of Deluge, Inc. (“Deluge”) and Hydrotherm Power Corporation (“Hydrotherm”) were classified as dissolved by the Delaware Division of Corporations after March 1, 2010 for failure to pay franchise taxes to the State of Delaware, and similarly classified by the ACC as of approximately the same time.  Neither the Company nor any of its officers or directors was named in the complaint brought by the ACC.


On December 11, 2010, Sustainable Energy LLC, a New York limited liability company (“Sustainable LLC”), entered into an Original Equipment Manufacturer Supply and Marketing and Sales Agreement with Deluge, and on November 15, 2012, entered into an Engine Technology License Agreement (the “License Agreement”) with Deluge (the “Licensor”) and an Intellectual Property Owner Agreement with Hydrotherm (collectively the “Contracts”).  On May 15, 2013, Sustainable LLC assigned each of the Contracts to Sustainable, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, which Deluge and Hydrotherm had consented to on May 11, 2013.


The License Agreement is a renewable 20-year agreement for an engine technology capable of converting low grade heat into other forms of energy. Under the terms of the Contracts, the Company obtained certain exclusive license rights in the engines developed by the Licensor which will permit the Company to develop, manufacture and integrate such engines into its projects.


In performing due diligence on Deluge and Hydrotherm, the Company subsequently also learned that two United States patents that are owned by Hydrotherm and were licensed to the Company under the Contracts had been classified as expired due to Hydrotherm’s failure to pay maintenance fees thereon. In conjunction with the Licensor, in April 2015, the Company arranged for the principal United States patent to be reinstated, and it is now again in effect. The Licensor is taking steps to cure the remaining defects but may not be successful.


Pursuant to the Contracts, the Company has obtained previously described rights to all forms of intellectual property covering certain engine technology that is the subject of the Contracts and is not relying solely on the patents in order to maintain the rights to use such technology. However, at this time, there can be no assurance that the foregoing matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations.


ITEM 4.  MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES  


None.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED SHAREHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES


The Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, trades on the OTC Markets under the symbol “CSEI”. The Company changed its symbol from “RCVA” to “CSEI” in November 2013 as a result of the change of the Company’s business because of the Merger. The Company’s common stock had been quoted on the OTC Markets under the symbol “RCVA” since October 2004.


During the last two years, our common stock has been very illiquid and rarely trades. The last reported price as of December 31, 2015 was $0.025 per share. Due to the low level of liquidity and infrequency of trades, the last reported price of our common stock is not reliable.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION


The following management’s discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements of our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Any statements that are not statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. When used, the words “believe,” “plan,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “target,” “estimate,” “expect” and the like, and/or future tense or conditional constructions (“will,” “may,” “could,” “should,” etc.), or similar expressions, identify certain of these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements in this report. The Company’s actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of several factors. The Company does not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of this report.


Overview


On May 15, 2013, Receivable Acquisition & Management Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) completed the acquisition of Cornerstone Program Advisors LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Cornerstone”) and Sustainable Energy Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Sustainable”), and assumed the operations of each of these entities (the “Merger”). Receivable Acquisition & Management Corporation had operated as a business purchasing and collecting upon defaulted consumer receivables and its operations were spun off by the Company.  Cornerstone has been in the business of managing energy infrastructure projects, specializing in the non-profit marketplace. Sustainable is in the business of developing, marketing, and implementing clean tech technologies. The Company is focused on managing energy infrastructure projects and developing applications for a licensed, environmentally benign heat engine with particular focus on the geothermal and waste-heat-to-energy production markets.


Cornerstone was considered to be the “acquiring entity” in the Merger strictly from an accounting perspective.  


Results of Operations


Year ended December 31, 2015 as compared with December 31, 2014.


Revenue


During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company had a net loss of $56,421 on revenues of $1,163,211, versus a net loss of $126,641 on revenue of $1,029,031 in the year ended December 31, 2014.  Net operations in 2015 remained at a loss consistent with last year due principally to the cost of renting additional space for client support activities and expenditures related to further developing the Company’s licensed technology.



6




Revenues show improvement, and the margin of project management revenue over the corresponding cost of subcontracted consultants for such projects has increased from 2014 to 2015. This gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2015 was approximately 19% of revenues, an improvement over the 14% for 2014.  


The revenue increase for the year ended December 31, 2015, over the prior year was a consequence of growing business activity with our two customers.   


Operating Expenses


Total operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2015 were $1,219,632, versus $1,155,672 during the year ended December 31, 2014.  The 5.5% increase in operating expenses in 2015 as compared with 2014 is primarily due to an increase in the payments to subcontracted consultants related to the additional business activity.


General and Administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2015 were $156,999, versus $122,025 during the year ended 2014. The major part of this increase was an increase in expenditures related to further developing the Company’s licensed technology for converting heat to energy.  Legal and other professional fees declined to $78,303 in 2015 from $149,448 in 2014 as the Company focused on reining in non-operating expenses.   


Consulting Expenses


The Company outsources a significant portion of its project management, oversight and advisory activities to a carefully selected group of small firms and subcontractors with expertise specific to the projects underway. As of the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company was using six such consulting resources. Consulting expenses consistently constitute the bulk of operating costs for the project advisory and management business activities of the Company, and accordingly generally track revenue.  


Liquidity and Capital Resources


As of December 31, 2015, the Company had a working capital deficit of ($119,672) versus a working capital deficit of ($108,824) as of year ended December 31, 2014.  Most of this change is due to a reduction in accounts receivable.  


As of December 31, 2015, the Company had net cash of $119,167 as compared with $49,169 at December 31, 2014. At the end of 2015, net cash provided (used) by operating activities was $52,498 as compared with $(411,787) at December 31, 2014.  The increase in net cash from operating activities was primarily due to a reduction in the net loss and decrease in accounts receivable.


At the end of 2015, there was $17,500 net cash provided by financing activities versus $113,079 during 2014.  This was primarily due to a moderate decline in the sales of stock to investors.


In December, the Company completed its activities at the customer accounting for the smaller portion of revenues.  Revenue from this source is suspended, and the activities of consultants on that project have likewise been suspended.  This marked the end of the planning phase of a major infrastructure project at that customer’s site.  An implementation phase is expected to begin in the near future, but no date has been set, and there is no assurance that the Company will be selected to manage that phase.    


The Company believes that funds generated from operations, together with existing cash and cash infusions by major stockholders, will be sufficient to finance its operations for the next twelve months, but are likely to be insufficient to fund its contractual obligation and to fund growth.  The Company expects to seek additional capital to cover any working capital needs and its contractual obligation discussed below, and to fund growth initiatives in its identified markets.  However, there can be no assurance that any new debt or equity financing arrangement will be available to the Company when needed on acceptable terms, if at all.  The continued operations of the Company are dependent on its ability to collect its receivables and increase revenues.


Income Taxes


The Company has paid modest income taxes to New Jersey, New York State and New York City, but does not expect any material income tax liability for the period ended December 31, 2015.  



7




Contractual Obligation


Under the terms of the License Agreement described above, an upfront payment of $200,000 and escalating volume-related quarterly payments are contractually required in order to maintain certain exclusive markets.  The payments, taken as whole, are expected to obligate the Company to amounts of $250,000 to $400,000 per year depending upon the growth in revenue from this source.  If the expected revenues do not materialize, the Company may elect not to pay these sums, and in the event of non-payment, the Company retains a non-exclusive license subject to royalty fees.


Critical Accounting Policy & Estimates


Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section discusses our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, accrued expenses, financing operations, and contingencies and litigation. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions. The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of our financial statements include estimates as to the appropriate carrying value of certain assets and liabilities which are not readily apparent from other sources.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Receivable Acquisition and Management Corporation


We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Receivable Acquisition and Management Corporation (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the years then ended.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audits 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 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 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 purposes of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining on a test basis, evidence supporting the amount and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

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 2014, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Receivable Acquisition and Management Corporation


Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2015



1. Organization and Nature of Business


Receivable Acquisition and Management Corporation (the “Company” or “RAMCO”), a public reporting entity, was in the business to purchase, manage and collect defaulted consumer receivables. RAMCO ceased investments in distressed consumer credit portfolios in September 2007 and since then was in the process of running off existing portfolios.


Following a reverse merger on May 15, 2013 (the “Merger”), the Company terminated its remaining activities in consumer receivables and credit and adopted a business plan building on the pre-existing businesses of the companies involved in the merger. The Company is now organized around the two major business activities of the combined entity. These are the management of infrastructure projects for commercial and institutional customers, and the commercialization of engine technology that converts low-grade heat to mechanical energy. The Company adopted a d/b/a name of Cornerstone Sustainable Energy to reflect this new business direction.  


2. Significant Accounting Policies


Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates


The Company prepares its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Some of the more significant estimates required to be made by management include valuation of shares issued for services, recognition of income for work completed and unbilled to customers, the allowance for doubtful accounts, and the valuation of the License Agreement. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


The Company believes that funds generated from operations, together with existing cash and cash infusions by major stockholders, will be sufficient to finance its operations for the next twelve months, but are likely to be insufficient to fund its contractual obligation and to fund growth. The Company expects to seek additional capital to cover any working capital needs and its contractual obligations, and to fund growth initiatives in its identified markets. However, there can be no assurance that any new debt or equity financing arrangement will be available to the Company when needed on acceptable terms, if at all. The continued operations of the Company are dependent on its ability to raise funds, collect accounts receivable, and receive revenues.


Cash


The Company continually monitors its positions with, and the credit quality of, the financial institutions it invests with. From time to time, however, the Company briefly maintains balances in operating accounts in excess of federally insured limits.


Accounts Receivable


Receivables are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. Management provides for probable uncollectible amounts through a charge to earnings and a credit to a valuation allowance based on its assessment of the current status of individual accounts. At December 31, 2015, no allowance for doubtful accounts had been provided.

Receivable Acquisition and Management Corporation


Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2015



2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)


Income Recognition


The Company recognizes income from the sale of services and products when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered or delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable and the collectability of the related income is reasonably assured.


The Company principally derives income from fees for services generated on a project-by-project basis. Prior to the commencement of a project, the Company reaches an agreement with the client on rates for services based upon the scope of the project, staffing requirements and the level of client involvement. It is the Company’s policy to obtain written agreements from new clients prior to performing services. In these agreements, the clients acknowledge that they will pay based upon the amount of time spent on the project or an agreed-upon fee structure. Income for services rendered is recognized on a time and materials basis or on a fixed-fee or capped-fee basis in accordance with accounting and disclosure requirements for income recognition.


Fees for services that have been performed, but for which the Company has not invoiced the customers, are recorded as unbilled receivables.


Income for time and materials contracts are recognized based on the number of hours worked by the Company’s subcontractors at an agreed upon rate per hour, and are recognized in the period in which services are performed. Income for time and materials contracts is billed monthly or in accordance with the specific contractual terms of each project.


Fixed Assets


Fixed assets are being depreciated on the straight line basis over a period of five years.  Accumulated depreciation at December 31, 2015 was $3,174.


License Agreement


The cost of the License Agreement (see Note 4) is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 20 years.  The License Agreement is reflected in the accompanying December 31, 2015 balance sheet net of accumulated amortization of $31,000.


Income Taxes


The Company recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only where the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by the tax authorities. Management has analyzed the Company’s tax positions, and has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken on returns filed for open tax years (2012 - 2014).


Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Share


The Company computes income (loss) per share in accordance with “ASC-260”, “Earnings per Share” which requires presentation of both basic and diluted income (loss) per share on the face of the statement of operations. Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive income (loss) per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.



F-7




Receivable Acquisition and Management Corporation


Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2015



2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)


Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Share (continued)


The Company has no potential dilutive instruments and accordingly basic income (loss) and diluted income per share are the same.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements


In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09: “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model requiring a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount reflecting the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In adopting ASU 2014-09, companies may use either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach. ASU 2014-09 is effective for the first interim period within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is not permitted. The Company will adopt ASU 2014-09 during the first quarter of fiscal 2018. Management is evaluating the provisions of this statement and has not determined what impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on the Company's financial position or results of operations.


In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15: “Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern” (“ASU 2014-15”). In connection with preparing financial statements for each annual and interim reporting period, an entity’s management should evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or within one year after the date that the financial statements are available to be issued when applicable). Management’s evaluation should be based on relevant conditions and events that are known and reasonably knowable at the date that the financial statements are issued (or at the date that the financial statements are available to be issued when applicable). Substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern exists when relevant conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, indicate that it is probable that the entity will be unable to meet its obligations as they become due within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued). The term probable is used consistently with its use in Topic 450, Contingencies. The amendments in this Update are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted.


All other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements upon adoption.

 

Subsequent Events

 

Management has evaluated subsequent events for disclosure and/or recognition in the financial statements through the date that the financial statements were available to be issued.


3. Related Party Transactions


Consulting Fees

 

Certain stockholders of the Company and entities affiliated with management that perform services for customers were compensated at various rates. Total consulting expenses incurred by these entities amounted to $719,240 and $776,262 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.  Amounts payable to these entities amounted to $249,372 and $333,338 at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Receivable Acquisition and Management Corporation


Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2015



3. Related Party Transactions (continued)


Prepaid Expenses

 

Amounts were advanced in 2015 to a consultant, who is also a stockholder and officer of the Company, for work committed to be performed in future periods under a contract with that consultant.  These advances totaled $13,500.  These amounts are to be deducted from the amounts to be paid in the future under that contract. All other such advances from prior periods have been settled.


4. License Agreement


On November 15, 2012, Sustainable LLC entered into a renewable 20-year engine technology License Agreement with a third party licensor (the “Licensor”) that developed engines capable of converting low grade heat into other forms of energy.  Under the terms of the License Agreement, Sustainable LLC obtained certain exclusive license rights in the engines developed by the Licensor which would permit Sustainable LLC to develop, manufacture and integrate such engines into its projects.


The exclusive market rights of the License Agreement provide that Sustainable LLC make a cash payment of $200,000 and issue common stock representing a small minority ownership position in the Company, along with periodic quarterly payments of $25,000 commencing six months after the initial $200,000 payment.  These payments reset to $50,000 per quarter after three payments, and are subject to further resets to up to $100,000 depending on engine sales volume.  Under certain circumstances, engine royalty fees and referral fees can increase the quarterly payment from time to time.  In the event of non-payment, Sustainable retains a non-exclusive license subject to royalty fees.  


On May 15, 2013, in connection with the Merger (see Note 1), Sustainable LLC assigned the License and Contracts to Sustainable. The Company, after acquiring 100% ownership interest in Sustainable, issued 2,435,430 shares to the Licensor which represents the small minority position in the Company as required under the terms of the License Agreement. At the time of issuance, these shares were valued at $48,709 representing the fair value of the RAMCO shares.


In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company made payments of $13,000 that were applied against the initial $200,000 due under the terms of the License Agreement.


In connection with the above described November 5, 2013, proceeding commenced by the Securities Division of the ACC, the Company learned that the Licensor had been classified as dissolved by the Delaware Division of Corporations after March 1, 2010 for failure to pay franchise taxes to the State of Delaware, and similarly classified by the ACC as of approximately the same time. Neither the Company nor any of its officers or directors was named in the complaint brought by the ACC.


In performing due diligence in regard to the status of the Licensor, the Company subsequently also learned that two United States patents that were licensed to the Company under the License Agreement have been classified as expired due to the Licensor’s failure to pay maintenance fees.  In conjunction with the Licensor, in April 2015, the Company arranged for the principal United States patent to be reinstated, and it is now again in effect.  In addition, the Company has been informed by Deluge and Hydrotherm management that steps are being taken to have the corporate charters of each, as well as the remaining patent, reinstated, although they may not be successful in such reinstatements, and is in discussions with the Licensor regarding these matters.  

 

Since the Company learned about the ACC proceeding and the classification as expired of certain patents in connection with the License Agreement, it has suspended payments under the License Agreement pending the resolution of this matter.

Receivable Acquisition and Management Corporation


Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2015



4. License Agreement (continued)


To the best of the Company’s knowledge at present, none of these issues presents a near-term hindrance to the Company’s continued focus on establishing and growing its engine technology business.


Pursuant to the License Agreement, the Company has obtained previously described rights to all forms of intellectual property covering certain engine technology that is the subject of the License Agreement and is not relying on the two U.S. patents to be reinstated in order to maintain the ability and know-how to use such technology.  To the Company’s best knowledge at the current time, international patent rights remain intact.  However, at this time, there can be no assurance that the foregoing matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations.


The accompanying December 31, 2015 balance sheet presents the carrying value of the license fee at $217,709, consisting of the $200,000 required payments due under the License Agreement and $48,709, representing the fair value of shares issued to the Licensor, net of $31,000 in accumulated amortization. In addition, the accompanying balance reflects $187,000 due to the Licensor, representing the remaining liability from the initial $200,000 required payment.  After careful assessment, the Company has concluded that no adjustment to the value of the License Agreement or amounts due thereunder should be made as a consequence of the ACC complaint at the current time, but continues to monitor these proceedings.


The Company periodically performs an analysis of its contractual rights and arrangements and establishes asset value based on that analysis.


5. Concentrations


The Company grants credit in the normal course of business to its customers.  The Company periodically performs credit analysis and monitors the financial condition of its customers to reduce credit risk.


Two customers accounted for 70.3% and 29.7% of the Company’s total project management income during the year ended December 31, 2015, and the same two customers accounted for 63.7% and 36.3% during the year ended December 31, 2014, respectively.

 

These two customers accounted for 43.9% and 56.1% of total accounts receivable at December 31, 2015 and for 51.6% and 48.4% respectively at December 31, 2014.


6. Stock Issuance


The Company issued 975,000 shares of Common Stock during the first quarter of 2014, valued at $31,750, for professional services, and issued 2,000,000 shares, at market price, to a single investor during the third quarter of 2014 for a cash investment of $100,000. In the first half of 2015, the Company issued 423,200 shares, valued at $21,160, for the acquisition of nine engines based on the licensed technology, and 100,000 shares, at market price, to an individual investor for a cash investment of $5,000. In the second half of 2015, the Company issued 500,000 shares, valued at $25,000 at market price, to a third party for a cash infusion and various services. All shares issued are restricted securities.

7. Commitments


The Company entered into an agreement with Thomas Telegades, Chief Executive Officer, Interim Chief Financial Officer, and Director of the Company, under which Mr. Telegades shall serve on a full-time basis as Chief Executive Officer for a three year term beginning on May 15, 2013. The agreement specifies that Mr. Telegades shall be paid annual compensation of up to $150,000 for his services.  The agreement includes non-competition and non-solicitation provisions which expire the later of three years from May 15, 2013, or one year following his termination or voluntary resignation.


The Company entered into an agreement with Peter Fazio, the Chief Operating Officer and Director of the Company, under which Mr. Fazio shall serve on a full-time basis as Chief Operating Officer of the Company for a three year term beginning on May 15, 2013. The agreement specifies that Mr. Fazio shall be paid annual compensation of up to $150,000 for his services.  The agreement includes non-competition and non-solicitation provisions which expire the later of three years from May 15, 2013, or one year following his termination or voluntary resignation.


The Company entered into an agreement with Gramercy Ventures LLC (“Gramercy”), under which the manager of Gramercy, James Valentino, who is also one of the directors of the Company, serves on a full-time basis as consultant to and non-executive Chairman of the Board of the Company for a three year term beginning on July 1, 2014. The agreement specifies that Gramercy shall be paid an annual compensation of up to $150,000 for such services. This agreement includes non-competition and non-solicitation provisions which expire the later of three years from July 1, 2014, or one year following his termination or voluntary resignation.


The Company entered into an agreement with Wallace Baker, a director of the Company, under which Mr. Baker serves on a full-time basis as Chief Administrative Officer and Secretary of the Company for a three year term beginning on July 1, 2014.  The agreement specifies that Mr. Baker shall be paid annual compensation of up to $150,000 for his services.  This agreement includes non-competition and non-solicitation provisions which expire the later of three years from July 1, 2014, or one year following his termination or voluntary resignation.


For 2015 and 2014, no amounts were paid to these officers nor were any amounts accrued.


8. Income Taxes


There was no provision for income tax for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014.  The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return.


The difference between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial and income tax reporting are not considered material. There were approximately $825,000 in net operating loss carryforwards at December 31, 2015, and approximately $800,000 at December 31, 2014, representing a potential deferred tax asset. The deferred tax asset amounted to approximately $275,000 and $270,000 at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. For net operating losses prior to the Merger, net operating loss carryforwards are subject to limitations as a result of a change in ownership as defined by IRC Section 382. Upon an assessment of the potential of realizing these deferred tax assets in the future, an offsetting valuation allowance has been established for the full amount of the deferred tax assets.

Our principal executive and principal financial officer has evaluated the effectiveness 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 (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this annual report.  He has concluded that, based on such evaluation, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2015 to ensure that:


(1) Information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commissions’ rules and forms; and


(2) Controls and procedures are designed by the Company to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management including the principal executive and principal financial officers or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding financial disclosure.


This term refers to the controls and procedures of a Company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a Company in the reports that it files under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods.


(b) Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting


Overview


Internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) refers to the process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, and effected by our board of directors, management and other personnel, 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. Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company.


Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations.  Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures.  Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override.  Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.


Management has used the 2013 framework set forth in the report entitled “Internal Control - Integrated Framework” published by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (“COSO”) of the Treadway Commission to evaluate the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.


Management’s Assessment


Based on this assessment, management has determined that, as of the December 31, 2015 measurement date, there were no material weaknesses in both the design and effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.





9



Our internal control over financial reporting was effective to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. We noted that there is a lack of sufficient internal accounting resources and lack of segregation of certain duties at the Company due to the small number of people with responsibility for general administrative and financial matters. At this time, management has decided that considering the individuals involved and the control procedures in place, the risks associated with such lack of segregation of duties are insignificant and the potential benefits of adding additional resources to clearly segregate duties do not justify the additional expenses associated with such increases. Additionally, we recently retained an outside consultant firm to assist in the financial reporting process.  We therefore conclude that our internal controls over financial reporting were effective as of and for the year ended December 31, 2015. Management will periodically reevaluate this situation. If the volume of business increases and sufficient capital is secured, it is the Company’s intention to mitigate the current lack of segregation of duties within the general, administrative and financial functions.


This annual report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to final rulings of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.


(c) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting


There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act, in 2015 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

To the best of our knowledge, none of our directors or executive officers has, during the past ten years:


·

·

been found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action or by the Securities and Exchange Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated;


·

been the subject of, or a party to, any federal or state judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, or finding, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated (not including any settlement of a civil proceeding among private litigants), relating to an alleged violation of any federal or state securities or commodities law or regulation, any law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies including, but not limited to, a temporary or permanent injunction, order of disgorgement or restitution, civil money penalty or temporary or permanent cease-and-desist order, or removal or prohibition order, or any law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity; or

Except as set forth in our discussion below in “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions,” none of our directors or executive officers has been involved in any transactions with us or any of our directors, executive officers, affiliates or associates which are required to be disclosed pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Commission.


Term of Office


Our directors are appointed for a one-year term to hold office until the next annual general meeting of our shareholders or until removed from office in accordance with our bylaws. Our officers are appointed by our board of directors and hold office until removed by the board.


All of the current directors and officers have held these positions since the Company’s reverse merger in 2013.


Code of Ethics


As of December 31, 2015, the Company has not adopted a Code of Ethics.


Corporate Governance


The business and affairs of the Company are managed under the direction of our board. The current members of the board have conducted meetings as needed since the Closing of the Merger. Each of our directors has attended all meetings either in person or via telephone conference.



12




Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight


Our board of directors is primarily responsible for overseeing our risk management processes. The board of directors receives and reviews periodic reports from management, auditors, legal counsel, and others, as considered appropriate regarding the Company’s assessment of risks. The board of directors focuses on the most significant risks facing the Company and the Company’s general risk management strategy, and also ensures that risks undertaken by the Company are consistent with the board’s appetite for risk. While the board oversees our company’s risk management, management is responsible for day-to-day risk management processes. We believe this division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing the risks facing our company and that our board leadership structure supports this approach.  


The Company does not have an audit committee, compensation committee or nominating committee. The board of directors is responsible for all aspects of governance of the Company, including functions that would be delegated to such committees.


SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE


Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company’s directors, executive officers and persons who own more than ten percent of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock to file with the SEC and the Company reports on Form 4 and Form 5 reflecting transactions affecting beneficial ownership. Based solely on a review of the copies of the reports furnished to us, or written representations that no reports were required to be filed, we believe that during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to our directors, officers, and greater than 10% beneficial owners were complied with.

Outstanding Equity Awards at Year-End


None.


Option Exercises and Stock Vested


No executive officer identified in the Summary Compensation Table above received or exercised any option in fiscal year 2015.


Benefit Plans


In 2013, the Board adopted and received consent of majority of shareholders for the Company’s 2013 Equity Incentive Award Plan (the “2013 Plan”) and the reservation of an aggregate of 3,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for issuance pursuant to the 2013 Plan. The 2013 Plan, approved by our stockholders, replaces the Company’s last stock option plan, which was adopted in April 2004, and will be used to help attract, retain and motivate employees, consultants and directors.


The affirmative vote of the Majority Shareholders was required for the approval of the 2013 Plan.


The 2013 Plan is available to employees and consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries and members of the Board, or as applicable, members of the board of directors. The Board believes that the 2013 Plan will promote the success and enhance the value of the Company by continuing to link the personal interests of participants to those of the Company and its stockholders and by providing participants with an incentive for outstanding performance to generate superior returns to our stockholders. The Board further believes that the 2013 Plan will provide flexibility to the Company in its ability to motivate, attract and retain the services of employees, consultants and Directors upon whose judgment, interest and special effort the successful operation of the Company is largely dependent.


The 2013 Plan provides for the grant of stock options (both incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options), restricted stock, stock appreciation rights, performance shares, performance stock units, dividend equivalents, stock payments, deferred stock, restricted stock units and performance-based awards to eligible participants.


There were no grants of plan-based awards to named executive officers for the year ended December 31, 2015.


Non-qualified Deferred Compensation


The Company does not have any defined contribution or other plan which provides for the deferral of compensation on a basis that is not tax-qualified.


Consulting Agreements


The Company entered into an agreement in 2013 with Thomas Telegades, Chief Executive Officer, Interim Chief Financial Officer, and Director of the Company, under which Mr. Telegades shall serve on a full-time basis as Chief Executive Officer for a three year term beginning on May 15, 2013.  The agreement specifies that Mr. Telegades shall be paid annual compensation of up to $150,000 for his services. The agreement includes non-competition and non-solicitation provisions which expire the later of three years from May 15, 2013, or one year following his termination or voluntary resignation.


The Company entered into an agreement in 2013 with Peter Fazio, the Chief Operating Officer and Director of the Company, under which Mr. Fazio shall serve on a full-time basis as Chief Operating Officer of the Company for a three year term beginning on May 15, 2013.  The agreement specifies that Mr. Fazio shall be paid annual compensation of up to $150,000 for his services.  The agreement includes non-competition and non-solicitation provisions which expire the later of three years from May 15, 2013, or one year following his termination or voluntary resignation.

The Company entered into an agreement with Gramercy Ventures LLC (“Gramercy”), under which the manager of Gramercy, James Valentino, who is also one of the directors of the Company, serves on a full-time basis as consultant to and non-executive Chairman of the Board of the Company for a three year term beginning on July 1, 2014.  The agreement specifies that Gramercy shall be paid an annual compensation of up to $150,000 for such services.  This agreement includes non-competition and non-solicitation provisions which expire the later of three years from July 1, 2014, or one year following his termination or voluntary resignation.


The Company entered into an agreement with Wallace Baker, a director of the Company, under which Mr. Baker serves on a full-time basis as Chief Administrative Officer and Secretary of the Company for a three year term beginning on July 1, 2014. The agreement specifies that Mr. Baker shall be paid annual compensation of up to $150,000 for his services.  This agreement includes non-competition and non-solicitation provisions which expire the later of three years from July 1, 2014, or one year following his termination or voluntary resignation.


For 2015 and 2014, all of the Company’s officers waived any compensation owed to them under such agreements. For 2015 and 2014, no amounts were paid to these officers nor did any amounts accrue.


All of our officers and/or directors will continue to be active in other companies. All officers and directors have retained the right to conduct their own independent business interests.


Potential Payments upon Termination or Change-in-Control


None.


Director Compensation Arrangements


Our directors do not receive compensation of any form for serving in this capacity, including for their attendance at meetings of the Board.


ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS


The following table sets forth certain information concerning the ownership of our common stock as of March 15, 2016, with respect to: (i) each person known to us to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of each class of stock; (ii) all of our directors and executive officers; and (iii) all of our directors and executive officers as a group. The notes accompanying the information in the table are necessary for a complete understanding of the information provided below. As of March 15, 2016 there were 200,512,159 shares of common stock outstanding.


We believe that all persons named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares shown as being owned by them, except as otherwise provided in the footnotes to the below table.


Under federal securities laws, a person or group of persons is: (a) deemed to have “beneficial ownership” of any shares as of a given date which such person has the right to acquire within 60 days after such date and (b) assumed to have sold all shares registered hereby in this offering. For purposes of computing the percentage of outstanding shares held by each person or group of persons named above on a given date, any security which such person or persons has the right to acquire within 60 days after such date is deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of such person or persons, but is not deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. This assumes that options, warrants or convertible securities that are held by such person or group of persons and which are exercisable within 60 days of the date of this report, have been exercised or converted.

Equity Compensation Plan Information

 

See Part II, Item 5, “Equity Compensation Plans” for information regarding our equity compensation plans.


ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE


Since January 1, 2015, there has not been any transaction or series of similar transactions to which we were or are a party in which the amount involved exceeded or exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or one percent of the average of our total assets at the applicable year-end and in which any of our directors or executive officers, any holder of more than 5% of any class of our voting securities or any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons had or will have a direct or indirect material interest, other than the compensation arrangements described in “Executive Compensation” and the transactions set forth below.




16




In connection with the Merger by and among the Company, Cornerstone, and Sustainable, which was completed May 15, 2013, the Company entered into a voluntary share exchange transaction (the “Exchange”) whereby the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding membership units of Cornerstone and the issued and outstanding shares of Sustainable in exchange for the issuance to the members of Cornerstone and issuance to the shareholders of Sustainable a total of approximately 176,400,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company (the “Consideration Shares”).  Prior to the Merger, the Company had approximately 19,600,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.  All of the Common Stock owned by directors Thomas Telegades, Peter Fazio, James Valentino, and Wallace Baker, or by trusts or limited liability companies at their designation, as of December 31, 2015 consists of Consideration Shares that they received in connection with the Merger.


See Part II, Item 11, “Employment Agreements” for information regarding the compensation agreements with the various officers and directors of the Company. For 2015, all of the Company’s officers waived any compensation owed to them under such agreements. No amounts were paid to these officers nor did any amounts accrue.


At its December 5, 2013, meeting, the Board authorized a grant to Max Khan, a former director and chief executive officer of the Company, of 375,000 shares of restricted Common Stock of the Company as compensation for services that Mr. Khan previously provided to the Company as Chief Executive Officer before the Closing of the Merger on May 15, 2013.


In 2015, the Company incurred $91,022 in charges to Cornerstone Program Advisors Ltd for various consulting services. Cornerstone Program Advisors Ltd provided such services to the Company in 2013 after the Merger and did so to Cornerstone prior to the Merger, when it was also a member of Cornerstone. As noted above, Cornerstone Program Advisors Ltd is wholly-owned by Thomas Telegades’ wife.  Mr. Telegades is the Chief Executive Officer of the Company.


Director Independence

 

Because our common stock is not currently listed on a national securities exchange, we have used the definition of “independence” of The NASDAQ Stock Market to make this determination. NASDAQ Listing Rule 5605(a)(2) provides that an “independent director” is a person other than an officer or employee of the Company or any other individual having a relationship which, in the opinion of the Companys board of directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. The NASDAQ listing rules provide that a director cannot be considered independent if:


·

the director is, or at any time during the past three years was, an employee of the company;

·

the director or a family member of the director accepted any compensation from the company in excess of $120,000 during any period of 12 consecutive months within the three years preceding the independence determination (subject to certain exclusions, including, among other things, compensation for board or board committee service);

·

a family member of the director is, or at any time during the past three years was, an executive officer of the company;

·

the director or a family member of the director is a partner in, controlling stockholder of, or an executive officer of an entity to which the company made, or from which the company received, payments in the current or any of the past three fiscal years that exceed 5% of the recipients consolidated gross revenue for that year or $200,000, whichever is greater (subject to certain exclusions);

·

the director or a family member of the director is employed as an executive officer of an entity where, at any time during the past three years, any of the executive officers of the company served on the compensation committee of such other entity; or the director or a family member of the director is a current partner of the company’s outside auditor, or at any time during the past three years was a partner or employee of the company’s outside auditor, and who worked on the company’s audit.

 

We have no independent directors. We do not have an audit committee, compensation committee or nominating committee.
