NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

Transportation and Logistics Systems, Inc. (“TLSS” or the “Company”), was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada, on July 25, 2008. The Company operates through its subsidiaries as a logistics and transportation company specializing in ecommerce fulfillment, last mile deliveries, two-person home delivery, mid-mile, and long-haul services for predominantly online retailers.

On March 30, 2017 (the “Closing Date”), TLSS and Save On Transport Inc. (“Save On”) entered into a Share Exchange Agreement, dated as of the same date (the “Share Exchange Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, on the Closing Date, Save On became a wholly-owned subsidiary of TLSS (the “Reverse Merger”). Save On was incorporated in the state of Florida and started business on July 12, 2016. This transaction was treated as a reverse merger and recapitalization of Save On for financial reporting purposes because the Save On shareholders retained an approximate 80% controlling interest in the post-merger consolidated entity. Save On was considered the acquirer for accounting purposes, and the Company’s historical financial statements before the Reverse Merger were replaced with the historical financial statements of Save On before the Reverse Merger. The balance sheets at their historical cost basis of both entities were combined at the Closing Date and the results of operations from the Closing Date forward include the historical results of Save On and results of TLSS from the Closing Date forward. On May 1, 2019, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement with Save On and Steven Yariv, whereby the Company returned all of the stock of Save On to Steven Yariv in exchange for Mr. Yariv conveying 1,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company back to the Company. In addition, the Company granted an aggregate of 80,000 options to certain employees of Save On. On April 16, 2019, Mr. Yariv ceased to be an officer or director of the Company.

On June 18, 2018 (the “Acquisition Date”), the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Prime EFS, LLC, a New Jersey limited liability company (“Prime EFS”), from its members pursuant to the terms and conditions of a Stock Purchase Agreement entered into among the Company and the Prime EFS members on the Acquisition Date (the “SPA”). Prime EFS is a New Jersey based transportation company with a focus on deliveries for on-line retailers in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

On July 24, 2018, the Company formed Shypdirect LLC (“Shypdirect”), a company organized under the laws of New Jersey. Shypdirect is a transportation company with a focus on tractor trailer and box truck deliveries of product on the east coast of the United States from one distributor’s warehouse to another warehouse or from a distributor’s warehouse to the post office.

On June 19, 2020, Amazon Logistics, Inc. (“Amazon”) notified Prime EFS in writing (the “Prime EFS Termination Notice”), that Amazon would not renew its Delivery Service Partner (DSP) Agreement with Prime EFS when that agreement (the “In-Force Agreement”) expired on September 30, 2020 and such In-Force Agreement, in fact, expired on September 30, 2020.

Additionally, on July 17, 2020, Amazon notified Shypdirect that Amazon had elected to terminate the Amazon Relay Carrier Terms of Service (the “Program Agreement”) between Amazon and Shypdirect effective as of November 14, 2020 (the “Shypdirect Termination Notice”). On August 3, 2020, Amazon offered to withdraw the Shypdirect Termination Notice and extend the term of the Program Agreement to and including May 14, 2021, conditioned on Prime EFS executing, for nominal consideration, a separation agreement with Amazon under which Prime EFS agrees to cooperate in an orderly transition of its Amazon last-mile delivery business to other service providers, Prime EFS released any and all claims it may have against Amazon, and Prime EFS covenanted not to sue Amazon (the “Aug. 3 Proposal”). On August 4, 2020, the Company, Prime EFS and Shypdirect accepted the Aug. 3 Proposal.

Approximately 58.5% and 39.0% (for a total of 97.5%) of the Company’s revenue of $23,503,384 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was attributable to Prime EFS’s last-mile DSP business and Shypdirect’s mid-mile and long-haul business with Amazon, respectively. The termination of the Amazon last-mile business will have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business in the 4th fiscal quarter of 2020 and thereafter. If the Amazon mid-mile and long-haul business is discontinued after May 14, 2021 it would have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business in 2nd fiscal quarter of 2021 and thereafter.

While the Company will seek to replace its last-mile DSP Amazon business and supplement its mid-mile and long-haul Amazon business, such initiatives are consistent with its already existing business plan to: (i) seek new last-mile, mid-mile and long-haul business with other, non-Amazon, customers; (ii) explore other strategic relationships; and (iii) identify potential acquisition opportunities, while continuing to execute our restructuring plan, commenced in February 2020.

TLSS and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Prime EFS and Shypdirect are hereafter referred to as the “Company”.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Basis of presentation and principles of consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and disclosures necessary for comprehensive presentation of financial position, results of operations or cash flow. However, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein. It is suggested that these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2019, and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K, filed on May 29, 2020.

The Company follows the same accounting policies in the preparation of its annual and interim reports. The results of operations in interim periods are not necessarily an indication of operating results to be expected for the full year.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of TLSS and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Save On (through April 30, 2019), Prime EFS and Shypdirect. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

On May 1, 2019, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Save On and Steven Yariv, whereby the Company returned all of the stock of Save On to Steven Yariv in exchange for Mr. Yariv conveying 1,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company back to the Company. Pursuant to Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 205-20-45, the financial statement in which net income or loss of a business entity is reported shall report the results of operations of the discontinued operation in the period in which a discontinued operation either has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale. Accordingly, beginning in the second quarter of 2019, the period that Save On was disposed of, the Company reflects Save On as a discontinued operation and such presentation is retroactively applied to all periods presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

Going concern

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company had a net loss of $35,506,373 and net cash used in operations was $2,369,261. Additionally, the Company had an accumulated deficit, shareholders’ deficit, and a working capital deficit of $114,818,245, $12,272,369 and $12,974,773, respectively, at September 30, 2020. Furthermore, the Company failed to make required payments of principal and interest on certain of its convertible debt instruments and notes payable (see Note 6).

On June 19, 2020, Amazon notified Prime EFS by the Prime EFS Termination Notice that it does not intend to renew the In-Force Agreement when that agreement expires. In the Prime EFS Termination Notice, Amazon stated that the In-Force Agreement expires on September 30, 2020. Additionally, on July 17, 2020, pursuant to the Shypdirect Termination Notice, Amazon notified Shypdirect that Amazon had elected to terminate the Program Agreement between Amazon and Shypdirect effective as of November 14, 2020 (see Note 1). However, on August 3, 2020, Amazon offered pursuant to the Aug. 3 Proposal to withdraw the Shypdirect Termination Notice and extend the term of the Program Agreement to and including May 14, 2021, conditioned on Prime EFS executing, for nominal consideration, a separation agreement with Amazon under which Prime EFS agrees to cooperate in an orderly transition of its Amazon last-mile delivery business to other service providers, Prime EFS releases any and all claims it may have against Amazon, and Prime EFS covenants not to sue Amazon. In a “Separation Agreement” dated August 23, 2020, by and among Amazon, Prime EFS and the Company, Prime EFS and the Company agreed, for nominal consideration, that the Delivery Service Partner Program Agreement between Amazon and Prime EFS would terminate effective September 30, 2020; that Prime EFS and the Company would cooperate in an orderly transition of the last-mile delivery business from Prime EFS to other service providers; that Prime EFS would return any and all vehicles leased from Element Fleet Corporation by October 7, 2020 in good repair; and that Prime EFS would dismiss the Amazon Arbitration with prejudice. Under the same Separation Agreement, Prime EFS and the Company released any and all claims they had against Amazon and covenant not to sue Amazon. In a “Settlement and Release Agreement” dated August 21, 2020, by and among Amazon, Shypdirect, Prime EFS and the Company, Amazon withdrew the Shypdirect Termination Notice and extended the term of the Program Agreement to and including May 14, 2021. In the Settlement and Release Agreement, Shypdirect released any and all claims it had against Amazon, arising under the Program Agreement between Amazon and Shypdirect effective as of November 14, 2020, or otherwise.

TRANSPORTATION AND LOGISTICS SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2020

The COVID-19 pandemic and resulting global disruptions have affected the Company’s businesses, as well as those of the Company’s customers and their third-party suppliers and sellers. To serve the Company’s customers while also providing for the safety of the Company’s employees and service providers, the Company has adapted numerous aspects of its logistics and transportation processes. The Company continues to monitor the rapidly evolving situation and expect to continue to adapt its operations to address federal, state, and local standards as well as to implement standards or processes that the Company determines to be in the best interests of its employees, customers, and communities. The impact of the pandemic and actions taken in response to it had minimal effects on the Company’s results of operations. The Company is experiencing higher net sales, which reflect increased demand, particularly as more people are staying at home, for household staples and other essential products, partially offset by decreased demand for discretionary consumer products, delayed procurement and shipment of non-priority products, and supply chain interruptions. Other effects include increased fulfilment costs and cost of sales, primarily due to investments in employee hiring, pay, and benefits, as well as costs to maintain safe workplaces, and higher shipping costs. The Company expects to continue to be affected by possible procurement and shipping delays, supply chain interruptions, higher product demand in certain categories, lower product demand in other categories, and increased fulfilment costs and cost of sales as a percentage of net sales through at least Q4 2020, although it is not possible to determine the duration and spread of the pandemic or such actions, the ultimate impact on the Company’s results of operations during 2020, or whether other currently unanticipated consequences of the pandemic are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s results of operations.

It is management’s opinion that these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months from the issuance date of this report. In April 2020, the Company’s subsidiaries, Prime EFS and Shypdirect, entered into Paycheck Protection Program promissory notes with M&T Bank in the aggregate amount of $3,446,152 (see Note 7). Management cannot provide assurance that the Company will ultimately achieve profitable operations, become cash flow positive, or raise additional debt and/or equity capital.

The Company will continue to: (i) seek to replace its last-mile DSP Amazon business and supplement its mid-mile and long-haul Amazon business with other, non-Amazon, customers; (ii) explore other strategic relationships; and (iii) identify potential acquisition opportunities, while continuing to execute our restructuring plan, commenced in February 2020. The Company is seeking to raise capital through additional debt and/or equity financings to fund its operations in the future. Although the Company has historically raised capital from sales of common shares and from the issuance of convertible promissory notes and notes payable, there is no assurance that it will be able to continue to do so. If the Company is unable to replace its Amazon business, to raise additional capital or secure additional lending in the near future, management expects that the Company will need to curtail its operations. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Use of estimates

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements, in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Significant estimates included in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes include the valuation of accounts receivable, the useful life of property and equipment, the valuation of intangible assets, the valuation of right of use assets and related liabilities, assumptions used in assessing impairment of long-lived assets, estimates of current and deferred income taxes and deferred tax valuation allowances, the fair value of non-cash equity transactions, the valuation of derivative liabilities, and the value of claims against the Company.

Fair value of financial instruments

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASC 820 — Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 requires disclosures about the fair value of all financial instruments, whether or not recognized, for financial statement purposes. Disclosures about the fair value of financial instruments are based on pertinent information available to the Company on September 30, 2020. Accordingly, the estimates presented in these financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized on disposition of the financial instruments. ASC 820 specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect market assumptions. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement).

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

	●	Level 1-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.

	●	Level 2-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.

	●	Level 3-Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.

The Company measures certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

	At September 30, 2020						At December 31, 2019
Description	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3

Balance at end of period	$	2,886,811		$	1,917,888

The Company accounts for its derivative financial instruments, consisting of certain conversion options embedded in our convertible instruments and warrants, at fair value using level 3 inputs. The Company determined the fair value of these derivative liabilities using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, binomial lattice models, or other accepted valuation practices. When determining the fair value of its financial assets and liabilities using these methods, the Company is required to use various estimates and unobservable inputs, including, among other things, expected terms of the instruments, expected volatility of its stock price, expected dividends, and the risk-free interest rate. Changes in any of the assumptions related to the unobservable inputs identified above may change the fair value of the instrument. Increases in expected term, anticipated volatility and expected dividends generally result in increases in fair value, while decreases in the unobservable inputs generally result in decreases in fair value.

ASC 825-10 “Financial Instruments”, allows entities to voluntarily choose to measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value (fair value option). The fair value option may be elected on an instrument-by-instrument basis and is irrevocable, unless a new election date occurs. If the fair value option is elected for an instrument, unrealized gains and losses for that instrument should be reported in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The Company did not elect to apply the fair value option to any outstanding instruments.

The carrying amounts reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values based on the short-term maturity of these instruments. The carrying amount of the Company’s convertible notes payable and promissory note obligations approximate fair value, as the terms of these instruments are consistent with terms available in the market for instruments with similar risk.

Cash and cash equivalents

For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the purchase date and money market accounts to be cash equivalents. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company did not have any cash equivalents.

The Company maintains its cash in bank and financial institution deposits that at times may exceed federally insured limits. There were no balances in excess of FDIC insured levels as September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts through September 30, 2020.

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable are presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses. The Company reviews the accounts receivable on a periodic basis and makes general and specific allowances when there is doubt as to the collectability of individual balances. In evaluating the collectability of individual receivable balances, the Company considers many factors, including the age of the balance, a customer’s historical payment history, its current credit-worthiness and current economic trends. Accounts are written off after exhaustive efforts at collection.

Property and equipment

Property are stated at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of five to six years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the useful life or lease term including scheduled renewal terms. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in income in the year of disposition. The Company examines the possibility of decreases in the value of these assets when events or changes in circumstances reflect the fact that their recorded value may not be recoverable.

TRANSPORTATION AND LOGISTICS SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2020

Intangible assets

Intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization, computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life, less any impairment charges.

Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The updated guidance requires lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for most operating leases. In addition, the updated guidance requires that lessors separate lease and non-lease components in a contract in accordance with the new revenue guidance in ASC 606. The updated guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018.

On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02, applying the package of practical expedients to leases that commenced before the effective date whereby the Company elected to not reassess the following: (i) whether any expired or existing contracts contain leases and; (ii) initial direct costs for any existing leases. For contracts entered into on or after the effective date, at the inception of a contract the Company assessed whether the contract is, or contains, a lease. The Company’s assessment is based on: (1) whether the contract involves the use of a distinct identified asset, (2) whether it obtains the right to substantially all the economic benefit from the use of the asset throughout the period, and (3) whether it has the right to direct the use of the asset. The Company will allocate the consideration in the contract to each lease component based on its relative stand-alone price to determine the lease payments. The Company has elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a term of 12 months or less.

Operating lease ROU assets represents the right to use the leased asset for the lease term and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As most leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the adoption date in determining the present value of future payments. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is amortized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Impairment of long-lived assets

In accordance with ASC Topic 360, the Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable, or at least annually. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s estimated fair value and its book value.

Segment reporting

The Company uses “the management approach” in determining reportable operating segments. The management approach considers the internal organization and reporting used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source for determining the Company’s reportable segments. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the chief executive officer of the Company, who reviews operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. On May 1, 2019, the Company disposed of its Save On business segment and the results of operations of Save On are included in discontinued operations. Accordingly, during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company believes that it operates in one operating segment related to deliveries for on-line retailers in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and other areas, and tractor trailer and box truck deliveries of product on the east coast of the United States from one distributor’s warehouse to another warehouse or from a distributor’s warehouse to the post office.

Derivative financial instruments

The Company has certain financial instruments that are embedded derivatives associated with capital raises. The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments to determine if those contracts or any potential embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for in accordance with ASC 815-10-05-4, Derivatives and Hedging and 815-40, Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity. This accounting treatment requires that the carrying amount of any embedded derivatives be recorded at fair value at issuance and marked-to-market at each balance sheet date. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, as is the case with the Company, the change in the fair value during the period is recorded as either other income or expense. Upon conversion, exercise or repayment, the respective derivative liability is marked to fair value at the conversion, repayment or exercise date and then the related fair value amount is reclassified to other income or expense as part of gain or loss on extinguishment.

TRANSPORTATION AND LOGISTICS SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2020

In July 2017, FASB issued ASU No. 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260); Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480); Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): (Part I) Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features. These amendments simplify the accounting for certain financial instruments with down-round features. The amendments require companies to disregard the down-round feature when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to its own stock, for purposes of determining liability or equity classification. The guidance was adopted as of January 1, 2019 and the Company elected to record the effect of this adoption retrospectively to outstanding financial instruments with a down round feature by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of the beginning of 2019, the period which the amendment is effective. In accordance with the guidance presented in the ASU 2017-11, the fair value of derivative liabilities associated with certain convertible notes as of December 31, 2018 of $838,471 and the offsetting effect of reclassifying such debt to stock-settled debt for which the Company recorded a put premium liability of $385,385 was reclassified by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to opening accumulated deficit as of January 1, 2019 in the amount of $453,086.

Revenue recognition and cost of revenue

The Company adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 605, Revenue Recognition. This ASC is based on the principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This ASC also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer service orders, including significant judgments.

For the Company’s Prime EFS and Shypdirect business activities, the Company recognizes revenues and the related direct costs of such revenue which generally include compensation and related benefits, gas costs, insurance, parking and tolls, truck rental fees, and maintenance fees as of the date the freight is delivered which is when the performance obligation is satisfied. In accordance with ASC Topic 606, the Company recognizes revenue on a gross basis. Our payment terms are net seven days from acceptance of delivery. The Company does not incur incremental costs obtaining service orders from its Prime EFS and Shypdirect customers, however, if the Company did, because all of Prime EFS and Shypdirect customer contracts are less than a year in duration, any contract costs incurred would be expensed rather than capitalized. The revenue that the Company recognizes arises from deliveries of packages on behalf of the Company’s customers. Primarily, the Company’s performance obligations under these service orders correspond to each delivery of packages that the Company makes under the service agreements. Control of the package transfers to the recipient upon delivery. Once this occurs, the Company has satisfied its performance obligation and the Company recognizes revenue.

Management has reviewed the revenue disaggregation disclosure requirements pursuant to ASC 606 and determined that no further disaggregation disclosure is required to be presented.

Basic and diluted income (loss) per share

Pursuant to ASC 260-10-45, basic income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the periods presented. Diluted income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive common shares consist of common stock issuable for stock warrants (using the treasury stock method) and shares issuable for convertible debt (using the as-if converted method). These common stock equivalents may be dilutive in the future.

The following table presents a reconciliation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share:

Stock-based compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of ASC 718 – “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, which requires recognition in the financial statements of the cost of employee, director, and non-employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee, director, or non-employee is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee, director, and non-employee services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The Company has elected to recognize forfeitures as they occur as permitted under ASU 2016-09 Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13 to modify the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. The amendments are effective for years beginning after December 15, 2019. An entity is permitted to early adopt any removed or modified disclosures and delay adoption of the additional disclosures until the effective date. Most amendments should be applied retrospectively, but certain amendments will be applied prospectively. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)—Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. The ASU simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. Consequently, more convertible debt instruments will be reported as a single liability instrument with no separate accounting for embedded conversion features. The ASU removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, which will permit more equity contracts to qualify for the exception. The ASU also simplifies the diluted net income per share calculation in certain areas. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of the standard on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

There are currently no other accounting standards that have been issued but not yet adopted that we believe will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows upon adoption.

NOTE 3 – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2020

Pursuant to ASC 205-20-45, the financial statement in which net income or loss of a business entity is reported shall report the results of operations of the discontinued operation in the period in which a discontinued operation either has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale. Accordingly, the Company reflects Save On as discontinued operations beginning in the second quarter of 2019, the period that Save On was disposed of and retroactively for all periods presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. The business of Save On are considered discontinued operations because: (a) the operations and cash flows of Save On were eliminated from the Company’s operations; and (b) the Company has no interest in the divested operations. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company did not have any remaining assets and liabilities classified as discontinued operations in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

For the Company’s Save On business activities, through the date of disposition on May 1, 2019, the Company recognized revenues and the related direct costs of such revenue which included carrier fees and dispatch costs as of the date the freight was delivered by the carrier which was when the performance obligation is satisfied. Customer payments received prior to delivery were recorded as a deferred revenue liability and related carrier fees if paid prior to delivery were recorded as a deferred expense asset. In accordance with ASC Topic 606, the Company recognized revenue on a gross basis. Our payment terms for corporate customers were net 30 days from acceptance of delivery and individual customers generally were required to pay in advance. The Company did not incur incremental costs obtaining service orders from its Save On customers, however, if the Company did, because all of the Save On customer’s contracts were less than a year in duration, any contract costs incurred were expensed rather than capitalized. The revenue that the Company recognized arose from service orders it received from its Save On customers. The Company’s performance obligations under these service orders corresponded to each delivery of a vehicle that the Company made for its customer under the service orders; as a result, each service order generally contained only one performance obligation based on the delivery to be completed.

The summarized operating result of discontinued operations included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations is as follows:

	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended

NOTE 6 – CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES PAYABLE AND NOTES PAYABLE

Red Diamond Partners LLC and RDW Capital, LLC

On April 25, 2017, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with RedDiamond Partners LLC (“RedDiamond”) pursuant to which the Company would issue to RedDiamond convertible promissory notes (the “RedDiamond Notes”) in an aggregate principal amount of up to $355,000, which includes a purchase price of $350,000 and transaction costs of $5,000. Pursuant to this securities purchase agreement, during 2017, the Company entered into three RedDiamond Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $270,000 and the Company received $265,000 after giving effect to the original issue discount of $5,000. The RedDiamond Notes matured during 2018. RedDiamond is not required to fund any additional tranches under the securities purchase agreement. Through date of default, the RedDiamond Notes bore interest at a rate of 12% per annum and were convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at RedDiamond’s option at 65% of the lowest VWAP (as defined in the RedDiamond Notes) for the ten trading days preceding the conversion. During 2018, the Company failed to make its required maturity date payments of principal and interest on the RedDiamond Notes of $270,000. In accordance with these notes, the Company entered into default in 2018, which increased the interest rate to 18.0% per annum. The RedDiamond Notes contain cross default provisions whereby a default in any one note greater than $25,000 causes a default in all the notes, however, this provision is only effective if there is a formal notice of default by the lender.

On June 30, 2017, the Company issued RDW Capital, LLC a senior convertible note in the aggregate principal amount of $240,000, for an aggregate purchase price of $30,000. Through date of default, the principal due under the note accrued interest at a rate of 12% per annum. All principal and accrued interest under the note was due six months following the issue date of the note, and was convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, at a conversion price equal to fifty (50%) of the lowest volume-weighted average price for the ten trading days immediately preceding the conversion. The note includes anti-dilution protection, including a down-round provision under which the conversion price could be affected by future equity offerings undertaken by the Company, as well as customary events of default, including non-payment of the principal or accrued interest due on the note. Upon an event of default, all obligations under the note become immediately due and payable and the Company is required to make certain payments to the lender. On December 31, 2017 the Company failed to make its required maturity date payment of principal and interest. In accordance with the note, the Company entered into default on January 3, 2018, which increased the interest rate to 24% per annum.

In connection with the issuance of these convertible promissory notes to RedDiamond and RDW Capital, LLC, the Company determined that the terms of these convertible promissory notes included a down-round provision under which the conversion price could be affected by future equity offerings undertaken by the Company.

The Company evaluated these convertible promissory note transactions in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging. Through December 31, 2018, the Company determined that the conversion feature of the convertible promissory notes was not afforded the exemption for conventional convertible instruments due to their respective variable conversion rate and price protection provisions. Accordingly, through December 31, 2018, under the provisions of FASB ASC Topic No. 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in an Entity’s Own Stock”, the embedded conversion option contained in the convertible instruments were accounted for as derivative liabilities at the date of issuance and shall be adjusted to fair value through earnings at each reporting date. On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU No. 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260); Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480); Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): (Part I) Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features, and the Company elected to record the effect of this adoption retrospectively to outstanding financial instruments with a down-round feature by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the consolidated balance sheet as of the beginning of 2019, the period which the amendment is effective (See Note 2 - Derivative financial instruments and summary of derivative liabilities below).

On April 9, 2019, the Company entered into agreements (the “RedDiamond Amendments”) with RedDiamond and RDW Capital, LLC, the holders of these convertible notes representing an aggregate principal amount of $510,000, and agreed with such holders to:

	●	extend the maturity date of the notes to December 31, 2020;
	●	remove all convertibility features of the notes; and
	●	repay not less than half of the obligations then outstanding pursuant to the notes if the Company completes an offering of equity or equity linked securities (including warrants, convertible preferred stock, convertible debentures or convertible promissory note) which results in gross proceeds to the Company of at least $4,000,000, using a portion of the proceeds thereof.

In connection with this debt modification, on April 9, 2019, the Company recorded a gain on debt extinguishment of $432,589, which consists of the removal of debt put premium of $385,385 since the debt is no longer convertible, and $47,204 related to the reversal of default interest payable.

Pursuant to the RedDiamond Amendments, the conversion provisions contained in the convertible promissory notes held by RedDiamond and RDW Capital, LLC were suspended and ceased to be exercisable beginning as of April 9, 2019. However, under the RedDiamond Amendments, the conversion provisions contained in the convertible promissory notes held by Red Diamond and RDW Capital, LLC were subject to reinstatement upon the occurrence of an event of default. The parties agreed that it would be considered an event of default under the convertible promissory notes if the Company consummated any new offering of equity or equity linked securities containing a conversion or exercise price which is variable based upon the market trading price of the Company’s securities. On August 30, 2019, the Company entered into a new offering of equity or equity linked securities containing a conversion or exercise price which is variable based upon the market trading price of the Company’s securities. Accordingly, the conversion terms were reinstated and the Company recorded a put premium of $385,385 and recorded interest expense of $385,385.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company issued 96,661,102 shares of its common stock upon the conversion of debt of $510,000 and accrued interest of $158,141. Upon conversion, the Company reclassified put premium of $385,385 to paid-in capital.

The aggregate principal amounts due as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 amounted to $0 and $895,385, which included a put premium of $0 and $385,385, and principal balance of $0 and $510,000, and was included in convertible notes payable, a current liability, on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet, respectively.

Bellridge Capital, LLC

On June 18, 2018, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Bellridge Purchase Agreement”), whereby it issued to Bellridge Capital, LLC (“Bellridge”) a senior secured convertible note in the aggregate principal amount of $2,497,503 (the “Bellridge Note”), for an aggregate purchase price of $1,665,000, net of an original issue discount of $832,503. In addition, the Company paid issue costs of $177,212. The original issue discount and issue costs were recorded as a debt discount to be amortized over the term of the Bellridge Note. The principal due under the Bellridge Note initially accrued interest at a rate of 10% per annum. Principal and interest payments of $232,940 were payable monthly beginning on December 18, 2018 and were due monthly over the term of the Bellridge Note in cash or common stock of the Company, at Bellridge’s discretion.

In connection with the Bellridge Purchase Agreement, Bellridge was issued a warrant, with a term of two years, to purchase up to 4.75% of the fully-diluted outstanding common stock of the Company, for an aggregate purchase price of $100 (the “First Bellridge Warrant”). Additionally, the placement agent for the Bellridge Note was issued a warrant, with a term of two years, to purchase up to 4.75% of the fully-diluted outstanding common stock of the Company, for an aggregate purchase price of $100 (the “Bellridge Note PA Warrant”).

In August 2018, the Company defaulted on the Bellridge Note due to (i) default on the payment of monthly interest payments due, (ii) default caused by the late filing of the Company’s reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2018 and (iii) default due to failure to file a registration statement. Upon an event of default, all principal, accrued interest, and liquidated damages and penalties were due upon request of Bellridge at 125% of such amounts.

On December 27, 2018, Bellridge waived any and all defaults in existence on the Bellridge Note and the Company agreed to issue a warrant that is convertible into 2% of the issued and outstanding shares existing at the time the Company files a registration statement or makes an application to up list to a national stock exchange (the “Second Bellridge Warrant” and together with the First Bellridge Warrant and the Bellridge Note PA Warrant, the “Bellridge Warrants”). Pursuant to the Second Bellridge Warrant, at any time on or before the date that the Company files a registration statement on Form S-l or applies for up-listing to a National Exchange (as defined in the Second Bellridge Warrant), and on or prior to the close of business on the early of the first year anniversary of the issuance of December 27, 2018, Bellridge could have chosen to subscribe for and purchase from the Company up to 2% in shares of common stock for an aggregate exercise price of $100. Additionally, the principal interest amount due under the Bellridge Note was modified with a monthly payment of principal and interest due beginning on January 18, 2019 of $156,219 with all remaining principal and interest amounts on the Bellridge Note due on December 18, 2019. This modification was not considered a debt extinguishment.

On April 9, 2019, the Company entered into a new agreement with Bellridge that modified the Bellridge Note and cancelled these warrants (see below).

Through April 9, 2019, all principal and accrued interest under the Bellridge Note was convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, at a conversion price equal to the lower of $1.50 and 65% of the lowest traded price during the fifteen trading days immediately prior to the conversion date. The Bellridge Note included anti-dilution protection, as well as customary events of default, including, but not limited to, non-payment of the principal or accrued interest due on the Bellridge Note and cross default provisions on other Company obligations or contracts. Upon an event of default, all obligations under the Bellridge Note become immediately due and payable and the Company is required to make certain payments to Bellridge.

September 30, 2020

Bellridge was granted a right of first refusal on future financing transactions of the Company while the Bellridge Note remains outstanding, plus an additional three months thereafter. In connection with the issuance of the Bellridge Note, the Company entered into a security agreement with Bellridge pursuant to which the Company agreed that obligations under the Bellridge Note and related documents will be secured by all of the assets of the Company. In addition, all of the Company’s subsidiaries are guarantors of the Company’s obligations to Bellridge pursuant to the Bellridge Note and have granted a similar security interest over substantially all of their assets. A portion of the proceeds of the Bellridge Note were used to acquire 100% of the membership interests of Prime EFS.

During the term of the Bellridge Note, in the event that the Company consummates any public or private offering or other financing or capital raising transaction of any kind (each a “Bellridge Note Subsequent Offering”), in which the Company receives, in one or more contemporaneous transactions, gross proceeds of at least $5,000,000, at any time upon ten (10) days written notice to the holder of the Bellridge Note, but subject to the Bellridge Note holder’s conversion rights set forth in the Bellridge Purchase Agreement, then the Company must use 20% of the gross proceeds of the Bellridge Note Subsequent Offering and must make payment to the Bellridge Note holder of an amount in cash equal to the product of (i) the sum of (x) the then outstanding principal amount of the Bellridge Note and (y) all accrued but unpaid interest, multiplied by (ii) (x) 110%, if the Prepayment Date (as defined in the Bellridge Note) is within 90 days of the date hereof the Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), or (y) 125%, if the Prepayment Date is after the 90th day following the Closing Date, to which calculated amount the Company must add all other amounts owed pursuant to the Bellridge Note, including, but not limited to, all late fees and liquidated damages.

In connection with the Bellridge Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement which, among other things, required the Company to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission no later than 120 days after June 18, 2018. The Company failed to file such registration statement. Accordingly, in addition to any other rights the holders may have under the Bellridge Purchase Agreement or under applicable law, on the default date and on each monthly anniversary of each such default date (if the applicable event is not cured by such date) until the ninetieth day from such default date, the Company will pay to each holder an amount in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to the product of one percent (1%) multiplied by the aggregate subscription amount paid by the holder pursuant to the Bellridge Purchase Agreement. Subsequent to the ninetieth day from such default date, the one percent (1%) penalty increases to two percent (2%), with an aggregate cap of twenty percent (20%) per annum. If the Company fails to pay any of these partial liquidated damages in full within seven days after the date payable, the Company will pay interest thereon at a rate of 18% per annum to the holder, accruing daily from the date such partial liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all such interest thereon, are paid in full. On December 27, 2018, Bellridge waived any and all defaults.

In connection with the Bellridge Purchase Agreement, the Company paid a placement agent $120,000 in cash which is included in issue costs previously discussed above and this placement agent was issued the Bellridge Note PA Warrant, with a term of two years, to purchase up to 4.75% of the fully-diluted outstanding common stock of the Company, for an aggregate purchase price of $100. On April 9, 2019, the Company entered into an agreement with this placement agent that cancelled the Bellridge Note PA Warrant.

In connection with the issuance of the Bellridge Note and the Bellridge Warrants, the Company determined that the Bellridge Note and the Bellridge Warrants contains terms that are not fixed monetary amounts at inception. Accordingly, under the provisions of ASC Topic No. 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in an Entity’s Own Stock”, the embedded conversion option contained in the Bellridge Note and the Bellridge Warrants were accounted for as derivative liabilities at the date of issuance and shall be adjusted to fair value through earnings at each reporting date. The fair value of this embedded conversion option derivative and the Bellridge Warrants were determined using the Binomial valuation model and Monte-Carlo simulation model, respectively.

Convertible debt modifications and warrant cancellations

On April 9, 2019 (the “Bellridge Modification Date”), the Company entered into an agreement with Bellridge (the “Bellridge Modification Agreement”) that modified its existing obligations to Bellridge as follows:

	●	the overall principal amount of the Bellridge Note was reduced from the original principal amount of $2,497,502 (principal amount was $2,223,918 at April 9, 2019) to $1,800,000, in exchange for the issuance to Bellridge of 800,000 shares of restricted common stock, to be delivered to Bellridge, either in whole or in part, at such time or times as when the beneficial ownership of such shares by Bellridge would not result in Bellridge’s beneficial ownership of more than the Beneficial Ownership Limitation and such shares are to be issued within three business days of the date the Bellridge has represented to the Company that it is below the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. Such issuances will occur in increments of no fewer than the lesser of (i) 50,000 shares and (ii) the balance of the 800,000 shares owed. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” is 4.99% of the number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of common stock issuable pursuant to the Bellridge Modification Agreement. In connection with these shares, the Company recorded a loss on debt extinguishment of $10,248,000 in April 2019. As of August 19, 2019, 100,000 of these shares have been issued and on August 16, 2019, the Company issued 700,000 shares of Series B Preferred shares upon settlement of 700,000 shares of issuable common stock;

	●	the maturity date of the Bellridge Note was extended to August 31, 2020;

	●	the interest rate was reduced from 10% to 5% per annum;

In addition, on the Bellridge Modification Date, warrant holders holding warrants exercisable into an aggregate of 4.75% of the outstanding common stock of the Company all agreed to exercise such warrants for an aggregate of 240,000 shares of common stock of the Company.

In an agreement dated August 3, 2020, Bellridge and the Company resolved many of the disputes between them. Among other things, Bellridge and the Company agreed upon the balance of all indebtedness owed to Bellridge as of August 3, 2020 ($2,150,000), a new maturity date on the indebtedness (April 30, 2021), and a price of $0.02 for the conversion of all Bellridge indebtedness into shares of Company common stock. In the agreement, Bellridge also agrees to release its claims against the Company and its senior management in a definitive settlement agreement. However, the August 3 agreement did not contain a release of claims by either party.

During the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company issued 107,500,001 shares of its common stock upon the conversion of debt of $1,813,402, accrued interest of $70,671 and any amounts due. In connection with the issuance of these shares, the Company recorded a loss on debt extinguishment of $512,366 which is associated with the fair market value of the excess shares issued upon conversion of the principal balances converted at the conversion price.

At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, convertible notes payable related to this convertible debt amounted to $0 and $1,813,402, which consists of $0 and $1,813,402 of principal balance due and is net of unamortized debt discount of $0, respectively.

August 30, 2019 convertible debt and related warrants

On August 30, 2019, the Company closed Securities Purchase Agreements (the “August 2019 Purchase Agreement”) with accredited investors. Pursuant to the terms of the August 2019 Purchase Agreement, the Company issued and sold to investors convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $2,469,840 (the “August 2019 Notes”), and warrants to purchase up to 987,940 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “August 2019 Warrants”). The Company received net proceeds of $295,534, which is net of a 10% original issue discount of $246,984 and origination fees of $61,101, and is net of $1,643,367 for the repayment of notes payable, and net of $222,854 related to the conversion of existing notes payable already outstanding to these lenders into the August 2019 Notes.

The August 2019 Notes initially bear interest at 10% per annum and become due and payable on November 30, 2020. During the existence of an Event of Default (as defined in the August 2019 Notes), interest accrues at the lesser of (i) the rate of 18% per annum, or (ii) the maximum amount permitted by law. Commencing on the four-month anniversary of the August 2019 Notes, monthly payments of interest and monthly principal payments, based on a 12-month amortization schedule (each, an “August 2019 Amortization Payment”), are due and payable, until November 30, 2020 at which time all outstanding principal, accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts due and payable under the August 2019 Notes will be immediately due and payable. The Company’s August 2019 Note Amortization Payments due on December 30, 2019 were paid on January 6, 2020 and the Company did not receive any default notice for this late payment. The August 2019 Note Amortization Payments are made in cash unless the investor requests payment in the Company’s common stock in lieu of a cash payment (an “August 2019 Note Stock Payment”). If the investor requests an August 2019 Note Stock Payment, the number of shares of common stock issued is based on the amount of the applicable August 2019 Amortization Payment divided by 80% of the lowest VWAP (as defined in the August 2019 Notes) during the five Trading Day (as defined in the August 2019 Notes) period prior to the due date of the August 2019 Amortization Payment.

The August 2019 Notes may be prepaid, provided that certain Equity Conditions, as defined in the August 2019 Notes, have been met (or any such failure to meet the Equity Conditions has been waived): (i) from August 30, 2019 until and through November 30, 2019 at an amount equal to 105% of the aggregate of the outstanding principal balance of the August 2019 Notes and accrued and unpaid interest, and (ii) after August 30, 2019 at an amount equal to 115% of the aggregate of the outstanding principal balance of the August 2019 Notes and accrued and unpaid interest. In the event that the Company closes a registered public offering of securities for its own account (a “Public Offering”), the holders may elect to: (x) have their principal and accrued interest prepaid directly from the proceeds of the Public Offering at the prices set forth above, (y) exchange their August 2019 Notes at the closing of the Public Offering for the securities being issued in the Public Offering at the Public Offering prices based upon the outstanding principal, accrued interest and other charges, or (z) continue to hold their August 2019 Notes. Except for a Public Offering and August 2019 Amortization Payments, in order to prepay the August 2019 Notes, the Company must provide at least 20 days’ prior written notice to the holders, during which time the holders may convert their August 2019 Notes in whole or in part at the then-applicable conversion price. For avoidance of doubt, the August 2019 Amortization Payments are prepayments and are subject to prepayment penalties equal to 115% of the August 2019 Amortization Payment. In the event the Company consummates a Public Offering while the August 2019 Notes are outstanding, then 25% of the net proceeds of such offering will, within two business days of the closing of such Public Offering, be applied to reduce the outstanding obligations pursuant to the August 2019 Notes.

In connection with the August 2019 Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement, pursuant to which the Company agreed to file a registration statement on Form S-1 to register the resale of the shares issuable to the investors pursuant to the August 2019 Purchase Agreement.

From the original issue date until the August 2019 Notes are no longer outstanding, the August 2019 Notes are convertible, in whole or in part, at any time, and from time to time, into shares of common stock at the option of the investor. The initial conversion price of the August 2019 Notes was the lower of: (i) $3.50 per share and (ii) the price per share paid by investors in the contemplated equity offering of up to $1,000,000. If an Event of Default (as defined in the August 2019 Notes) has occurred, regardless of whether it has been cured or remains ongoing, the August 2019 Notes were initially convertible at the lower of: (i) $3.50 and (ii) 70% of the second lowest closing price of the common stock as reported on the Trading Market (as defined in the August 2019 Notes) during the 20 consecutive Trading Day (as defined in the August 2019 Notes) period ending and including the Trading Day (as defined in the August 2019 Notes) immediately preceding the delivery or deemed delivery of the applicable notice of conversion. All such Conversion Price determinations are to be appropriately adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, reclassification or similar transaction that proportionately decreases or increases the common stock.

The August 2019 Notes and related August 2019 Warrants include down-round provisions under which the August 2019 Note conversion price and August 2019 Warrant exercise price could be affected, on a full-ratchet basis, by future equity offerings undertaken by the Company. On September 6, 2019, the Company sold shares of its common stock at $2.50 per share and accordingly, the conversion price and warrant down-round provisions were triggered. As a result, the conversion price of the August 2019 Notes was reduced to $2.50 per share and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants was increased to 1,383,116 and the exercise price was lowered to $2.50. On January 7, 2020, the Company issued new convertible debt with an initial conversion price of $0.40 per share and warrants exercisable at $0.40 per share and accordingly, the conversion price and warrant down-round provisions were triggered. As a result, the conversion price of August 2019 Notes was reduced to $0.40 per share, and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants was increased to 8,644,474 and the exercise price was lowered to $0.40. As a result of the January 7, 2020 trigger of the down-round provisions, on January 7, 2020, the Company recorded a deemed dividend of $17,836,244 which represents the fair value transferred to the warrant holders from the down round feature being triggered. The Company calculated the difference between the warrants fair value on January 7, 2020, the date the down- round feature was triggered using the current exercise price and the new exercise price and the new number shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants. The deemed dividend was recorded as an increase in accumulated deficit and increase in paid-in capital and increased the net loss to common shareholders by the same amount. As discussed in summary of derivative liabilities below, as of January 30, 2020, the August 2019 Warrants are treated as derivative liabilities. Subsequent to January 7, 2020, additional down-round protection was triggered. As of September 30, 2020, the conversion price on the August 2019 Notes was lowered to $0.006 per share, the exercise price of the August 2019 Warrants was lowered to $0.006 per share, and the number shares issuable upon exercise of the August 2019 Warrants was increased.

In connection with the issuance of the August 2019 Notes, the Company determined that various terms of the August 2019 Notes, including the August 2019 Note Stock Payment terms discussed above, caused derivative treatment of the embedded conversion options. On August 30, 2019, the initial measurement date, the fair values of the embedded conversion option derivative of $1,953,968 was recorded as derivative liabilities and was allocated as a debt discount up to the net proceeds of the August 2019 Notes of $936,645, with the remainder of $1,017,323 charged to current period operations as initial derivative expense.

On January 30, 2020, due to the default of the January 2020 August 2019 Notes Amortization Payment, the August 2019 Notes were deemed in default. Accordingly, the outstanding principal balance on date of default increased by 30% which amounted to $723,985, default interest accrues at 18%, and the default conversion terms apply.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company repaid principal of $257,139, settled $128,674 of debt, and the Company issued 293,677,788 shares of its common stock upon the conversion of principal and default interest of $2,118,311, accrued interest of $48,685 and fees of $1,000. Additionally, accrued interest payable of $84,416 was reclassified to principal balance. During the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company issued 39,885,602 shares of its common stock upon the conversion of principal and default interest of $284,249, accrued interest of $8,450 and fees of $900.

Additionally, on July 20, 2020 and July 22, 2020, the Company entered Exchange Agreements (the “Exchange Agreements”) with two Investors to exchange outstanding August 2019 Notes and August 2019 Warrants for a newly created series of preferred stock designated the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series D”) (See Note 8). Pursuant to the Exchange Agreements, the Investors exchanged August 2019 Notes with an aggregate remaining principal amount outstanding of $500,184, accrued interest payable of $85,828, and Warrants to purchase 423,159,293 shares of Common Stock for 522,726 shares of Series D (the “Exchange”). In connection with the issuance of these shares, the Company recorded a loss on debt extinguishment of $239,678 which is associated with the fair market value of the excess shares issued upon conversion of the principal balances and accrued interest converted at the conversion price.

In the event that the Company closes a Public Offering, each holder may elect to: (x) have its principal and accrued interest prepaid directly from the proceeds of the Public Offering at the prices set forth above, (y) exchange its Q1/Q2 2020 Note at the closing of the Public Offering for the securities being issued in the Public Offering at the Public Offering prices based upon the outstanding principal, accrued interest and other charges, or (z) continue to hold its Q1/Q2 2020 Note(s). Except for a Public Offering and Q1/Q2 2020 Note Amortization Payments, in order to prepay a Q1/Q2 2020 Note, the Company must provide at least 30 days’ prior written notice to the holder thereof, during which time the holder may convert its Q1/Q2 2020 Note in whole or in part at the applicable conversion price. The Q1/Q2 2020 Note Amortization Payments are prepayments and are subject to prepayment penalties equal to 115% of the Q1/Q2 2020 Note Amortization Payment. In the event the Company consummates a Public Offering while the Q1/Q2 2020 Notes are outstanding, then 25% of the net proceeds of such offering will, within two business days of the closing of such Public Offering, be applied to reduce the outstanding obligations pursuant to the Q1/Q2 2020 Notes.

From the original issue date of a Q1/Q2 2020 Note until such Q1/Q2 2020 Note is no longer outstanding, such Q1/Q2 2020 Note is convertible, in whole or in part, at any time, and from time to time, into shares of common stock at the option of the holder. The “Conversion Price” in effect on any Conversion Date (as defined in the applicable Q1/Q2 2020 Note) means, as of any date of determination, $0.40 per share, subject to adjustment as provided therein and summarized below. If an Event of Default (as defined in the applicable Q1/Q2 2020 Note) has occurred, regardless of whether it has been cured or remains ongoing, the Q1/Q2 2020 Notes are convertible at the lower of: (i) $0.40 and (ii) 70% of the second lowest closing price of the common stock as reported on the Trading Market (as defined in the applicable Q1/Q2 2020 Note) during the 20 consecutive Trading Day (as defined in the applicable Q1/Q2 2020 Note) period ending and including the Trading Day immediately preceding the delivery or deemed delivery of the applicable notice of conversion. All such Conversion Price determinations are to be appropriately adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, reclassification or similar transaction that proportionately decreases or increases the common stock.

The Q1/Q2 2020 Warrants are exercisable at any time on or after the date of the issuance and entitle the investors to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock for a period of five years from the initial date the Q1/Q2 2020 Warrants become exercisable. Under the terms of the Q1/Q2 2020 Warrants, the investors are entitled to exercise the Q1/Q2 2020 Warrants to purchase up to 827,200 shares of the Company’s common stock at an initial exercise price of $0.40, subject to adjustment as detailed in the respective Q1/Q2 2020 Warrants.

September 30, 2020

In connection with the issuance of the January 2020 warrants, the Company calculated the relative fair value of these warrants in the amount of $262,872 which was added to debt discount and paid-in capital, and shall be amortized over the term of the Q1/Q2 2020 Notes. In connection with the issuance of the notes in January, February, March and April 2020 and the issuance of the warrants in February, March and April 2020, the Company determined that various terms of these Q1/Q2 2020 Notes and Q1/Q2 2020 Warrants, including the default provisions in the Q1/Q2 2020 Notes discussed above, caused derivative treatment of the embedded conversion options and warrants. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, on the initial measurement dates, the fair values of the embedded conversion option and warrant derivatives of $8,817,568 was recorded as derivative liabilities and was allocated as a debt discount up to the net proceeds of the Q1/Q2 2020 Notes of $1,287,474, with the remainder of $7,530,095 charged to current period operations as initial derivative expense.

The Q1/Q2 2020 Notes include a down-round provision under which the Q1/Q2 2020 Note conversion price could be affected, by future equity offerings undertaken by the Company. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, down-provisions were triggered. As of September 30, 2020, the conversion price of the Q1/Q2 Notes was lowered to $0.006 per share.

Due to the default of amortization payments due on our August 2019 Notes and other notes as discussed above, the Q1/Q2 2020 Notes were deemed in default. Accordingly, the outstanding principal balance on date of default increased by 30% which amounted to approximately $620,400, default interest accrues at 18%, and the default conversion terms apply.

During the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company issued 291,796,804 shares of its common stock upon the conversion of principal and default interest of $1,887,000 and accrued interest of $3,731.

At September 30, 2020, convertible notes payable and default interest due related to the Q1/Q2 2020 Notes amounted to $698,821, which consists of $801,400 of principal balance due and is net of unamortized debt discount of $102,579.

April 20, 2020 convertible debt

On April 20, 2020, the Company issued and sold to an investor a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $456,500 (the “April 20 Note”). The April 20 Note contained a 10% original issue discount amounting to $41,500 for a purchase price of $415,000. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the April 20 Note because the investor converted previous notes and accrued interest due to him in the amount of $195,000 into the April 20 Note. In connection with the conversion of notes payable to the April 20 Note, the Company recorded a loss from debt extinguishment of $220,000. The April 20 Note initially bore interest at 6% per annum and becomes due and payable on April 20, 2022 (the “April 20 Note Maturity Date”). During the existence of an Event of Default (as defined in the April 20 Note), which includes, amongst other events, any default in the payment of principal and interest payment (including any April 20 Note Amortization Payments) under any note or any other indebtedness, interest accrues at the lesser of (i) the rate of 18% per annum, or (ii) the maximum amount permitted by law. Commencing on the thirteenth month anniversary of the April 20 Note, monthly payments of interest and monthly principal payments, based on a 12 month amortization schedule, will be due and payable (each, an “April 20 Note Amortization Payment”), until the April 20 Note Maturity Date, at which time all outstanding principal, accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts due and payable under the April 20 Note will be immediately due and payable. The April 20 Note Amortization Payments will be made in cash unless the investor payment in the Company’s common stock in lieu of a cash payment (each, an “April 20 Note Stock Payment”). If the investor requests an April 20 Note Stock Payment, the number of shares of common stock issued will be based on the amount of the applicable April 20 Note Amortization Payment divided by 80% of the lowest VWAP (as defined in the April 20 Note) during the five Trading Day (as defined in the April 20 Note) period prior to the due date of the April 20 Note Amortization Payment.

The April 20 Note may be prepaid, provided that certain Equity Conditions, as defined in the April 20 Note, have been met (or any such failure to meet the Equity Conditions has been waived): (i) from April 20, 2020 until and through July 20, 2020 at an amount equal to 105% of the aggregate of the outstanding principal balance of the April 20 Note and accrued and unpaid interest, and (ii) after July 20, 2020 at an amount equal to 115% of the aggregate of the outstanding principal balance of the April 20 Note and accrued and unpaid interest. In the event that the Company closes a Public Offering, the holder may elect to: (x) have its principal and accrued interest prepaid directly from the proceeds of the Public Offering at the prices set forth above, (y) exchange its April 20 Note at the closing of the Public Offering for the securities being issued in the Public Offering at the Public Offering prices based upon the outstanding principal, accrued interest and other charges, or (z) continue to hold the April 20 Note. Except for a Public Offering and April 20 Note Amortization Payments, in order to prepay the April 20 Note, the Company must provide at least 30 days’ prior written notice to the holder, during which time the holder may convert the April 20 Note in whole or in part at the then applicable conversion price. For avoidance of doubt, the April 20 Note Amortization Payments will be prepayments and are subject to prepayment penalties equal to 115% of the April 20 Note Amortization Payment. In the event the Company consummates a Public Offering while the April 20 Note is outstanding, then 25% of the net proceeds of such offering will, within two business days of the closing of such Public Offering, be applied to reduce the outstanding obligations pursuant to the April 20 Note.

Until the April 20 Note is no longer outstanding, it is convertible, in whole or in part, at any time, and from time to time, into shares of common stock at the option of the investor. The “Conversion Price” in effect on any Conversion Date (as defined in the April 20 Note) means, as of any Conversion Date or other date of determination, the lower of: (i) $0.40 and (ii) 70% of the second lowest closing price of the common stock as reported on the Trading Market (as defined in the April 20 Note) during the 20 consecutive Trading Day (as defined in the April 20 Note) period ending and including the Trading Day immediately preceding the delivery or deemed delivery of the applicable notice of conversion.

September 30, 2020

In connection with the issuance of the April 20 Note, the Company determined that various terms of the April 20 Note caused derivative treatment of the embedded conversion option. On the initial measurement dates, the fair values of the embedded conversion option derivative of $1,436,725 was recorded as derivative liabilities and was allocated as a debt discount up to the net proceeds of the April 20 Note of $415,000, with the remainder of $1,021,725 charged to current period operations as initial derivative expense. Due to the default of August 2019 Note Amortization Payments due on our August 2019 Notes and other notes, the April 20 Note was deemed in default. Accordingly, the outstanding principal balance on date of default increased by 30% which amounted to approximately $136,950, default interest accrues at 18%, and the default conversion terms apply.

The April 20 Note includes a down-round provision under which the April 20 Note conversion price could be affected, by future equity offerings undertaken by the Company. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, down-provisions were triggered. As of September 30, 2020, the conversion price of the April 20 Note was lowered to $0.006 per share.

During the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company issued 38,500,000 shares of its common stock upon the conversion of principal and default interest of $231,000.

At September 30, 2020, convertible notes payable related to the April 20 Note amounted to $187,293, which consists of $362,450 of principal balance and default interest due and is net of unamortized debt discount of $175,157.

Summary of derivative liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, due to the non-payment of amortization payments due, substantially all convertible notes were deemed in default. Accordingly, for substantially all of the loans in default, the aggregate outstanding principal balance on date of default increased by 30% which amounted to an aggregate amount of $1,531,335. This default amount due of $1,531,335 was recorded as interest expense on the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations. Since the default principal due is convertible at the same default terms contained in the related convertible notes, the Company determined that various terms of the convertible notes discussed above caused derivative treatment of the embedded conversion options related to the default principal due. Accordingly, under the provisions of ASC 815-40 - Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in an Entity’s Own Stock, the embedded conversion option related to the default principal due were accounted for as derivative liabilities at the date of issuance and shall be adjusted to fair value through earnings at each reporting date. The fair value of the embedded conversion option derivatives related to the default principal due was determined using the Binomial valuation model. At the end of each period and on the date that debt is converted into common shares, the Company revalues the embedded conversion option derivative liabilities. In connection with the default principal due, during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, on the initial measurement date, the fair values of the embedded conversion option derivatives related to default principal due of $6,340,248 was recorded as derivative liabilities and charged to current period operations as initial derivative expense.

As discussed above, the Company issued debt that consists of the issuance of convertible notes with variable conversion provisions. The conversion terms of the convertible notes are variable based on certain factors, such as the future price of the Company’s common stock, default provisions and payment of amortization payments in stock. The number of shares of common stock to be issued is based on the future price of the Company’s common stock. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of each promissory note is indeterminate. Due to the fact that the number of shares of common stock issuable may exceed the Company’s authorized share limit, effective January 30, 2020, the equity environment is tainted and all convertible debentures and warrants are included in the value of the derivative. Pursuant to ASC 815-15 Embedded Derivatives, the fair values of the variable conversion option and warrants and shares to be issued were recorded as derivative liabilities. On January 30, 2020, the Company evaluated all outstanding warrants to determine whether these instruments are tainted and, due to reasons discussed above, all warrants outstanding were considered tainted. Accordingly, the Company recorded a reclassification from paid-in capital to derivative liabilities of $11,381,885 for warrants becoming tainted. On January 30, 2020, the fair value of the warrants to be reclassified to derivative liabilities was determined using the Binomial valuation model.

In connection with the issuance of the Q1/Q2 2020 Notes and the warrants issued in February, March and April 2020, the Company determined that various terms of the Q1/Q2 2020 Notes and Q1/Q2 2020 Warrants, including the default provisions in the Q1/Q2 2020 Notes discussed above, caused derivative treatment of the embedded conversion options and warrants. Accordingly, under the provisions of ASC 815-40 - Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in an Entity’s Own Stock, the embedded conversion option contained in the Q1/Q2 2020 Notes and certain warrants were accounted for as derivative liabilities at the date of issuance and shall be adjusted to fair value through earnings at each reporting date. The fair value of the embedded conversion option derivatives and warrants was determined using the Binomial valuation model. At the end of each period and on the date that the Q1/Q2 2020 Notes are converted into common shares, the Company revalues the embedded conversion option derivative liabilities. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, on the initial measurement dates, the fair values of the embedded conversion option and warrant derivatives of $8,817,568 was recorded as derivative liabilities and was allocated as a debt discount up to the net proceeds of the Q1/Q2 2020 Notes of $1,287,473, with the remainder of $7,530,095 charged to current period operations as initial derivative expense.

Warrants issued in connection with convertible debt

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company issued Q1/Q2 2020 Warrants to purchase up to 827,200 shares of the Company’s common stock (See Note 6). The Q1/Q2 2020 Warrants are exercisable at any time on or after the date of the issuance and entitle the investors to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock for a period of five years from the initial date the Q1/Q2 2020 Warrants become exercisable. Under the terms of the Q1/Q2 2020 Warrants, the investors are entitled to exercise the Q1/Q2 2020 Warrants to purchase up to 827,200 shares of the Company’s common stock at an initial exercise price of $0.40, subject to adjustment as detailed in the respective Q1/Q2 2020 Warrant. In connection with the 374,000 warrants issued in January 2020, the Company calculated the relative fair value of these warrants in the amount of $262,872 which was added to debt discount and will be amortized over the term of the notes (see Note 6). In connection with the 453,200 warrants issued in February, March 2020 and April 2020, the Company determined that various terms of these Q1/Q2 2020 Notes and Q1/Q2 2020 Warrants, including the default provisions in the Q1/Q2 2020 Notes discussed in Note 6, caused derivative treatment of the warrants. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, on the initial measurement dates, the fair value of the warrant derivatives of $456,858 was recorded as derivative liabilities and was allocated as a debt discount up to the net proceeds of the Q1/Q2 2020 Notes of $456,858. The fair value of these warrants was estimated using the Binomial valuation model with the assumptions as outlined in Note 6.

Warrant price protection

On August 30, 2019, pursuant to the terms of the August 2019 Purchase Agreements with accredited investors, the Company issued August 2019 Warrants to purchase up to 987,940 shares of the Company’s common stock (See Note 6). The August 2019 Warrants are exercisable at any time on or after the date of the issuance and entitle the investors to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock for a period of five years from the initial date the August 2019 Warrants become exercisable. Under the terms of the August 2019 Warrants, the investors were entitled to exercise the August 2019 Warrants to purchase up to 987,940 shares of the Company’s common stock at an initial exercise price of $3.50, subject to adjustment as detailed in the August 2019 Warrants. On September 6, 2019, the Company sold its common shares at $2.50 per share and accordingly, the August 2019 Warrant down-round provisions were triggered. As a result, the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants was increased by 395,176 to 1,383,116 and the exercise price was lowered to $2.50. On January 7, 2020, the Company issued new convertible debt with an initial conversion price of $0.40 per share and warrants exercisable at $0.40 per share and accordingly, the conversion price and warrant down-round provisions were triggered. As a result, the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants was increased to 8,644,474 and the exercise price was lowered to $0.40. As a result of the January 7, 2020 trigger of the down-round provisions, on January 7, 2020, the Company recorded a deemed dividend of $17,836,244 which represents the fair value transferred to the warrant holders from the down-round feature being triggered. The Company calculated the difference between the August 2019 Warrants’ fair value on January 7, 2020, the date the down-round feature was triggered using the current exercise price and the new exercise price and the new number of shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants. The deemed dividend was recorded as an increase in accumulated deficit and increase in paid-in capital and increased the net loss to common shareholders by the same amount. Subsequent to January 7, 2020, additional down-round protection was triggered. As of September 30, 2020, the exercise price of the August 2019 Warrants was lowered to $0.006 per share, and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants was increased.

In August 2019, in connection with the sale of common stock, the Company issued 585,000 five-year warrants to purchase common shares for an exercise price of $2.50 per common share to investors. These warrants include down-round provisions under which the warrant exercise price could be affected by future equity offerings undertaken by the Company. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, down-round provisions were triggered. As of September 30, 2020, the exercise price of these warrants was lowered to $0.006 per share.

September 30, 2020

In October 2019, pursuant to the terms of the October 3 Purchase Agreement with an accredited investor, the Company issued the October 3 Warrant to purchase up to 66,401 shares of the Company’s common stock (See Note 6). The October 3 Warrant is exercisable at any time on or after the date of the issuance and entitles the investor to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock for a period of five years from the initial date the October 3 Warrant becomes exercisable. Under the terms of the October 3 Warrant, the investor is entitled to exercise the October 3 Warrant to purchase up to 66,401 shares of the Company’s common stock at an initial exercise price of $3.51, subject to adjustment as detailed in the October 3 Warrant. The October 3 Warrant includes a down-round provision under which the October 3 Warrant exercise price could be affected, on a full-ratchet basis, by future equity offerings undertaken by the Company. Subsequent to October 3, 2019, the Company issued convertible debt with a conversion price of $2.50 per share and accordingly, the October 3 Warrant down-round provisions were triggered. As a result, the October 3 Warrant exercise price was lowered to $2.50 and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of warrants was increased to 66,667. On January 7, 2020, the Company issued new convertible debt with an initial conversion price of $0.40 per share and warrants exercisable at $0.40 per share and accordingly, the conversion price and warrant down-round provisions were triggered. As a result, the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants was increased to 416,669 and the exercise price was lowered to $0.40. As a result of the January 7, 2020 trigger of the down-round provisions, on January 7, 2020, the Company recorded a deemed dividend of $859,768 which represents the fair value transferred to the warrant holders from the down-round feature being triggered. The Company calculated the difference between October 3 Warrant’s fair value on January 7, 2020, the date the down-round feature was triggered using the current exercise price and the new exercise price and the new number of shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants. The deemed dividend was recorded as an increase in accumulated deficit and increase in paid-in capital and increased the net loss to common shareholders by the same amount. Subsequent to January 7, 2020, additional down-round protection was triggered. As of September 30, 2020, the exercise price of the October 3 Warrant was lowered to $0.006 per share, and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the October 3 Warrant was increased.

Other

As discussed in Note 6 above, the Company issued debt that consists of the issuance of convertible notes with variable conversion provisions. The conversion terms of the convertible notes are variable based on certain factors, such as the future price of the Company’s common stock, default provisions and payment of amortization Payments in stock. The number of shares of common stock to be issued is based on the future price of the Company’s common stock. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the promissory note is indeterminate. Due to the fact that the number of shares of common stock issuable exceed the Company’s authorized share limit, effective January 30, 2020, the equity environment is tainted and all convertible debentures and warrants shall be included in the value of the derivative. Pursuant to ASC 815-15 Embedded Derivatives, the fair values of the warrants were recorded as derivative liabilities on the issuance date. On January 30, 2020, the Company evaluated all outstanding warrants to determine whether these instruments are tainted and, due to reasons discussed above, all warrants outstanding were considered tainted. Accordingly, the Company recorded a reclassification from paid-in capital to derivative liabilities of $11,381,885 for warrants becoming tainted. On January 30, 2020, the fair value of the warrants to be reclassified to derivative liabilities was determined using the Binomial valuation model.

Subsequent to January 30, 2020, the Company issued shares of its common stock upon conversion of debt at price lower than $0.40. Accordingly, the exercise prices of the August 2019 Warrants and October 3 Warrant discussed above were lowered to $0.006 and the aggregate number of shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants was increased from 9,061,143 shares to 604,076,186 shares. Since these warrants were treated as derivative liabilities, no additional deemed dividend was recorded.

During the period from June 1, 2020 to June 29, 2020, the Company issued 70,203,889 shares of its common stock in connection with the cashless exercise of 73,635,000 warrants. The exercise price was based on contractual terms of the related debt.

On June 16, 2020, the Company issued an aggregate of 28,100,000 five-year warrants to purchase 28,100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.06 per share, subject to adjustment as defined in the respective warrant to two consultants for services rendered. On June 16, 2020, the Company calculated the fair value of these warrants of $1,963,291 which was calculated using the Binomial valuation model with the following assumptions: expected dividend rate, 0%; expected term of 5 years; volatility of 298.8% and risk-free interest rate of 0.33%. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recorded stock-based professional fees of $1,963,291 related to these warrants which has been included in professional fees on the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations.

On July 20, 2020 and July 22, 2020, the Company entered Exchange Agreements (see Note 6) with two Investors to exchange outstanding August 2019 Notes and August 2019 Warrants for a newly created series of preferred stock designated the Series D (See above). Pursuant to the Exchange Agreements, the Investors exchanged August 2019 Notes with an aggregate remaining principal amount outstanding of $500,184, accrued interest payable of $85,828, and Warrants to purchase 423,159,293 shares of Common Stock for 522,726 shares of Series D. In connection with the issuance of these shares, the Company recorded a loss on debt extinguishment of $239,678 which is associated with the fair market value of the excess shares issued upon conversion of the principal balances and accrued interest converted at the conversion price.

Disputes Between Prime EFS, ELRAC LLC, and Enterprise Leasing Company of Philadelphia, LLC

On or about January 10, 2020, Prime EFS was named as sole defendant in a civil action captioned ELRAC LLC v. Prime EFS, filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, assigned Case No. 1 :20-cv-00211 (the “ELRAC Action”). The complaint in the ELRAC Action alleged that Prime EFS failed to pay in full for repairs allegedly required by reason of property damage to delivery vehicles leased by Prime EFS from ELRAC LLC (“ELRAC”) to conduct its business. The complaint sought damages of not less than $382,000 plus $58,000 in insurance claims that ELRAC believes were collected by the Company and not reimbursed to ELRAC.

ELRAC subsequently moved for a default judgment against Prime EFS. By letter to the court dated March 9, 2020, Prime EFS opposed entry of a default judgment and contended that all claims in the ELRAC Action were subject to mandatory arbitration clauses found in the individual lease agreements. On March 19, 2020, ELRAC filed a stipulation dismissing the ELRAC Action without prejudice and advised Prime EFS that it intends to file an arbitration at the American Arbitration Association alleging essentially identical claims.

During the period it was leasing vans and trucks from ELRAC and its affiliate, Enterprise Leasing Company of Philadelphia, LLC (“Enterprise PA” and, with ELRAC, “Enterprise”), Prime EFS transferred $387,392 in deposits required by Enterprise as security for the payment of deductibles and uninsured damage to Enterprise’s fleet. Despite due demand, Enterprise never accounted to Prime EFS’s satisfaction regarding the application of these deposits. On June 10, 2020, Prime EFS therefore initiated an arbitration (the “Arbitration”) against Enterprise at the American Arbitration Association seeking the return of not less than $327,000 of these deposits.

On October 9, 2020, Enterprise filed its Answer and Counterclaims in the Arbitration. In its Answer, Enterprise denies liability to Prime for $327,000 or any other sum. In its Counterclaims, ELRAC seeks $382,000 in damages and Enterprise PA seeks $256,000 in damages. Enterprise also seeks $62,000 in insurance payments allegedly made by Utica to Prime EFS.

Prime EFS believes the Enterprise Answer and Counterclaims lack merit and intends to defend its position in the Arbitration vigorously. Nevertheless, given the amount of the Counterclaim and the documentation which Enterprise has submitted in the arbitration in support thereof, the Company continues to reflect a liability of $440,000, i.e., the amount originally claimed as damages by ELRAC in the ELRAC Federal Action, as a contingency liability on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet.

BMF Capital v. Prime EFS LLC et al.

As previously reported, in a settlement agreement entered into as of March 6, 2020, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary Prime EFS agreed to pay BMF Capital (“BMF”) $275,000 on or by March 11, 2020, inter alia to discharge a convertible note, to cancel certain warrants on 40,300 shares of TLSS common stock, and to settle certain claims made by BMF Capital under certain merchant cash advance agreements (MCAs). Prime EFS did not pay a portion of the agreed $275,000 settlement amount by March 11, 2020 but the Company has subsequently paid the $275,000 in full. As more than eight months have now passed, and BMF has not again contacted Prime EFS concerning this matter, Prime EFS believes this matter to now be closed.

Bellridge Capital, L.P. and SCS, LLC v. TLSS

By letter dated April 28, 2020, a prior investor in the Company, Bellridge Capital, L.P. (“Bellridge”), claimed that the Company was in breach of its obligations under an August 29, 2019 letter agreement to issue a confession of judgment and to pay Bellridge $150,000 per month against the amounts due under, inter alia, an April 2019 promissory note. In the April 28, 2020 letter, Bellridge contended that TLSS owed Bellridge $1,978,557.76 as of that date. In a purported standstill agreement subsequently proposed by Bellridge, Bellridge claimed that TLSS owed it $2,271,099.83, a figure which allegedly includes default rate interest. Bellridge also claimed that a subordination agreement it signed with the Company on August 30, 2019, was void ab initio. Bellridge also demanded the conversion of approximately $20,000 in indebtedness into the common stock of the Company, a conversion which the Company had not effectuated at the time because the parties had not come to agreement on a conversion price. Such agreement was required for Bellridge to exercise its conversion rights under an agreement dated April 9, 2019 between Bellridge and the Company.

On September 11, 2020, Bellridge filed a civil action against the Company, John Mercadante and Douglas Cerny in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, captioned Bellridge Capital, L.P. v. Transportation and Logistics Systems, Inc., John Mercadante and Douglas Cerny. The case was assigned Case No. 20-cv-7485. The complaint alleges two separate claims (the first and second claims for relief) for purported violations of section 10(b) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and SEC Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, against the Company, Mr. Mercadante and/or Mr. Cerny; a claim (the third claim for relief) purportedly for control person liability under section 20(a) of the Exchange Act against Messrs. Mercadante and Cerny; a claim (the fourth claim for relief) purportedly for fraudulent inducement against the Company; a claim (the fifth claim for relief) against the Company purportedly for breach of an exchange agreement between Bellridge Capital, L.P. (“Bellridge”) and the Company allegedly dated April 13, 2019 (the “Purported Exchange Agreement”); a claim (the sixth claim for relief) against the Company purportedly for specific performance of the Purported Exchange Agreement; a claim against the Company (the seventh claim for relief) for purported non-payment of a promissory note dated December 26, 2018 pursuant to which the Company borrowed $300,000 and committed to pay Bellridge $330,000 on or by March 15, 2019 plus 10% interest per annum (the “December 2018 Note”); a claim (the eighth claim for relief) purportedly for a declaratory judgment that the Company allegedly failed to comply with a condition precedent to the effectiveness of a subordination agreement (the “Subordination Agreement”) executed and delivered in connection with the Purported Exchange Agreement; and a claim (the ninth claim for relief) for breach of an assignment agreement, executed on or about July 20, 2018 (the “Partial Assignment Agreement”) in connection with a purchase of 50,000 shares of Company convertible preferred stock, by Bellridge, from a third party.

The damages sought under the first, second and third claims for relief are not specified in the complaint. The fourth claim for relief seeks $128,394 in damages exclusive of interest and costs. The fifth claim for relief seeks $582,847 in damages exclusive of interest and costs. The sixth claim for relief demands that the Company honor allegedly outstanding stock conversions served by Bellridge at a price of $0.00545 per share. The seventh claim for relief seeks $267,970 in damages exclusive of interest and costs. The eighth claim for relief seeks a declaration that the Subordination Agreement is null and void. The ninth claim for relief seeks the difference between the conversion price of the shares at time of the originally requested conversion and the price on the actual date of conversion, plus liquidated damages of $57,960.

Briefly, the complaint in this action alleges, among other things, that the Company failed to make payments required under two promissory notes, namely the December 2018 Note and a convertible promissory note issued June 18, 2018 as amended by the Purported Exchange Agreement (the “June 2018 Note”). The complaint also alleges that the Company and its senior officer gave false assurances about a potential PIPE transaction in order to induce Bellridge to execute and deliver the Purported Exchange Agreement and the Subordination Agreement. The complaint also alleges that the Company failed to honor certain conversion notices issued by Bellridge and/or failed to negotiate an exercise price in good faith, allegedly as required by the Partial Assignment Agreement and/or the Purported Exchange Agreement. The forgoing discussion does no more than summarize certain of the major allegations of a complaint running 25 pages. Readers wishing additional information should review the complaint and/or discuss same with management. The Company believes it has substantial defenses to some or all claims in the complaint, including without limitation the defense usury. Both the Company and Mr. Mercadante intend to defend this case vigorously.

It is not possible to evaluate the likelihood of a favorable or unfavorable outcome, nor is it possible to estimate the amount or range of any potential loss in the matter.

SCS, LLC v. Transport and Logistics Systems, Inc.

On May 26, 2020, a civil action was filed against the Company in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County, captioned SCS, LLC v. Transportation and Logistics Systems, Inc. The case was assigned Index No. 154433/2020.

The plaintiff in this action, SCS, LLC (“SCS”) alleges it is a limited liability company that entered into a renewable six-month consulting agreement with the Company dated September 5, 2019 and that the Company failed to make certain monthly payments due thereunder for the months of October 2019 through March 2020, summing to $42,000. The complaint alleges claims for breach of contract, quantum meruit, unjust enrichment and account stated.

On July 22, 2020, the Company filed its answer, defenses and counterclaims in this action. Among other things, the Company avers in its answer that SCS’s claims are barred by its unclean hands and other inequitable conduct, including breach of its duties (i) to maintain the confidentiality of information provided to SCS on a confidential basis and (ii) to work only in furtherance of the Company’s interests, not in furtherance of SCS’s own, and conflicting, interests. The Company also avers that SCS’s alleged damages must be reduced by the compensation and other benefits received by Lawrence Sands, founder of SCS, as a W-2 employee of the Company. The Company also avers that the New York Supreme Court lacks subject matter jurisdiction of the action because SCS concedes it is a Florida LLC based in Florida and that the Company is a Nevada corporation based in Florida.

On July 31, 2020, SCS moved for summary judgment in this action. On August 18, 2020, the Company moved to dismiss this action for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. In its motion, among other things, the Company asserted that the New York court lacks subject matter jurisdiction because neither party was formed under New York law; neither party maintains an office in the State of New York; the consulting agreement between the parties dated September 5, 2019 was not performed in the State of New York; and, it was anticipated, at the time of contracting, that the bulk of SCS’s consulting services thereunder would be rendered in Florida, not New York.

On November 4, 2020, Supreme Court, New York County, heard argument on the Company’s motion to dismiss, granted the motion, and denied SCS’s motion summary judgment as moot (the “Decision”). SCS has a right to seek reconsideration and/or to take and perfect an appeal from the Decision within time periods prescribed by New York Civil Practice Law and Rules and related court rules.

Shareholder Derivative Action

As previously disclosed, on June 25, 2020, the Company was served with a putative shareholder derivative action filed in the Circuit Court of the 15^th Judicial Circuit in and for Palm Beach County, Florida (the “Court”) captioned SCS, LLC, derivatively on behalf of Transportation and Logistics Systems, Inc. v. John Mercadante, Jr., Douglas Cerny, Sebastian Giordano, Ascentaur LLC and Transportation and Logistics Systems, Inc. The action has been assigned Case No. 2020-CA-006581.

The plaintiff in this action, SCS, alleges it is a limited liability company formed by a former chief executive officer and director of the Company, Lawrence Sands. The complaint alleges that between April 2019 and June 2020, the current chairman and chief executive officer of the Company, the current chief development officer of the Company and, since February 2020, the Company’s restructuring consultant, breached fiduciary duties owed to the Company. The Company’s restructuring consultant, defendant Sebastian Giordano, renders his services through another defendant in the action, Ascentaur LLC.

Briefly, the complaint alleges that the Company’s chief executive officer breached duties to the Company by, among other things, requesting, in mid-2019, that certain preferred equity holders, including SCS, convert their preferred shares into Company common stock in order to facilitate an equity offering by the Company and then not consummating an equity offering. The complaint also alleges that current management caused the Company to engage in purportedly wasteful and unnecessary transactions such as taking merchant cash advances (MCA) on disadvantageous terms. The complaint further alleges that current management “issued themselves over two million shares of common stock without consideration.” The complaint seeks unspecified compensatory and punitive damages on behalf of the Company for breach of fiduciary duty, negligent breach of fiduciary duty, constructive fraud, and civil conspiracy and the appointment of a receiver or custodian for the Company.

The Company’s current management has tendered the complaint to its directors’ and officers’ liability carrier for defense and indemnity purposes, which coverage is subject to a $250,000 self-insured retention or “deductible.” Company management, Mr. Giordano and Ascentaur LLC each advise that they deny each and every allegation of wrongdoing alleged in the complaint. Among other things, current management asserts that it made every effort to consummate an equity offering in late 2019 and early 2020 and could not do so solely because of the Company’s precarious financial condition. Current management also asserts it made clear to SCS and other preferred equity holders, before they converted their shares into common stock, that there was no guarantee the Company would be able to consummate an equity offering in late 2019 or early 2020. In addition, current management asserts that it received equity in the Company on terms that were entirely fair to the Company and entered into MCA transactions solely because there was no other financing available to the Company.

On August 5, 2020, all defendants in this action moved to dismiss the complaint for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. Among other things, all defendants allege in their motion that, through this lawsuit, SCS is improperly attempting to second-guess business decisions made by the Company’s Board of Directors, based solely on hindsight (as opposed to any well-pleaded facts demonstrating a lack of care or good faith). All defendants also assert that the majority of the claims are governed by Nevada law because they concern the internal affairs of the Company. Defendants further assert that, under Nevada law, each of the business decisions challenged by SCS is protected by the business judgment rule. Defendants further assert that, even if SCS could rebut the presumption that the business judgment rule applies to all such transactions, SCS has failed to allege facts demonstrating that intentional misconduct, fraud, or a knowing violation of the law occurred—a requirement under Nevada law in order for director or officer liability to arise. Defendants further assert that, because SCS’s constructive fraud claim simply repackages Plaintiff’s claims for breach of fiduciary duty, it too must fail. Defendants also contend that in the absence of an adequately-alleged independent cause of action—let alone an unlawful agreement between the defendants entered into for the purpose of harming the Company, SCS’s claim for civil conspiracy must also be dismissed. Finally, defendants contend that SCS’s extraordinary request that a receiver or custodian be appointed to manage and supervise the Company’s activities and affairs throughout the duration of this unfounded action is without merit because SCS does not allege the Company is subject to loss so serious and significant that the appointment of a receiver or custodian is “absolutely necessary to do complete justice.”

SCS has a right to file court papers opposing the above motion and thereafter the defendants have a right to file reply papers in further support of the motion (the “MTD”). To date, the court has not entered an order scheduling these filings or a hearing on the MTD.

In the interim, SCS has propounded certain discovery requests to Mr. Giordano concerning his personal jurisdiction and de facto officer defenses to which Mr. Giordano responded in timely fashion, to the extent required by Florida court rules.

While they hope to prevail on the motion, win or lose, current Company management, Mr. Giordano and Ascentaur LLC advise that they intend to mount a vigorous defense to this action, as they believe the action to be entirely bereft of merit.

It is not possible to evaluate the likelihood of a favorable or unfavorable outcome, nor is it possible to estimate the amount or range of any potential loss in the matter.

Frank Mazzola v. Prime EFS, et al.

TRANSPORTATION AND LOGISTICS SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2020

On July 24, 2020, Prime EFS terminated the employment of Frank Mazzola effective that day. On July 27, 2020, Mr. Mazzola filed a Complaint and Jury Demand in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York in which he named as defendants Prime EFS, the Company, John Mercadante and Douglas Cerny. The case was assigned # 1:20-CV-5788-VM. In this action, Mr. Mazzola alleges that he had an employment agreement with Prime EFS and that Prime EFS breached the alleged employment agreement through two alleged pay reductions and by terminating his employment. The Complaint contains eight counts: (1) breach of contract against Prime EFS; (2) breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing against Prime EFS; (3) intentional misrepresentation against Prime EFS, the Company and Mr. Mercadante; (4) negligent misrepresentation against Prime EFS, the Company and Mr. Mercadante; (5) tortious interference with contract against the Company, Mr. Mercadante and Mr. Cerny; (6) tortious interference with prospective economic advantage against the Company, Mr. Mercadante and Mr. Cerny; (7) conversion against all defendants; and (8) unjust enrichment against all defendants. Mr. Mazzola seeks specific performance of the alleged employment agreement and damages of not less than $3 million.

Without Answering the Complaint, on August 14, 2020, the defendants objected to the Complaint on the grounds of lack of personal jurisdiction, improper venue and because the Complaint failed to state a claim upon which relief could be granted. On August 25, 2020, the Court ordered Mr. Mazzola to respond to the defendant’s objections within three days. On August 28, 2020, Mr. Mazzola voluntarily withdrew the action.

On September 1, 2020, Mr. Mazzola served the defendants with a Complaint and Jury Demand that Mr. Mazzola filed in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Law Division, Bergen County, docket number BER-L-004967-20. The Complaint alleged the same claims as those set forth in the Complaint that Mr. Mazzola had filed in the now withdrawn New York federal lawsuit. On September 28, 2020, the defendants removed the New Jersey state court lawsuit to the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, which has been assigned civil action number 2:20-cv-13387-BRM-ESK. On October 5, 2020, all defendants filed a motion to dismiss each and every claim asserted against then in the New Jersey federal action. The briefing and hearing of defendants’ motion have been adjourned owing to plaintiff Frank Mazzola’s decision to replace his lawyer in this action.

All defendants believe the complaint lacks merit and intend to mount a vigorous defense to the action.

It is not possible to evaluate the likelihood of a favorable or unfavorable outcome, nor is it possible to estimate the amount or range of any potential loss in the matter.

Rosemary Mazzola v. TLSS and Douglas Cerny

On September 19, 2020, attorneys for Frank Mazzola’s mother, Rosemary Mazzola, filed an action in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Company and Douglas Cerny. The case was assigned docket number 1:20-cv-7582 and assigned to USDJ Gregory H. Woods. In this action, Ms. Mazzola claims that the Company entered into and breached an unspecified contract by failing to pay her $94,000. In addition, the complaint claims that, although he was not a party to the unspecified contract, Mr. Cerny falsely represented that the Company intended to “repay” Ms. Mazzola $94,000 plus interest. The complaint seeks $94,000 from each defendant, plus late fees, costs, prejudgment interest and attorneys’ fees and, from Mr. Cerny punitive damages in an unspecified amount. The complaint also alleges claims for account stated and breach of implied warranty of good faith and fair dealing, allegedly premised on the same indebtedness.

On October 26, 2020, in lieu of filing an answer, all defendants, by counsel, submitted timely a letter motion (the “Oct. 26 Letter Motion”) for leave to file a motion to dismiss the complaint, which filing pointed out numerous alleged deficiencies with the complaint. Among other things, in the Oct. 26 Letter Motion, defendants pointed out (a) that Mr. Cerny is not a proper defendant and that, in event, the Court lacks personal jurisdiction over him; (b) that the only conceivable contract on which the complaint could be based is the Amended and Restated Stock Purchase Agreement, dated September 30, 2018, pursuant to which Mrs. Mazzola and others sold their membership interests in Prime EFS to the Company; (c) that pursuant to that contract, “[i]n lieu of the receipt of cash by Rosemary Mazzola at Closing, Rosemary Mazzola has agreed to loan such cash amount [$489,174] to the Company” — defined to be Prime EFS, not the Company; and (d) therefore, that the only entity with an obligation to pay any amounts allegedly due to Mrs. Mazzola under the 2018 agreement is Prime EFS, not the Company.

In addition, in the Oct. 26 Letter Motion, defendants assert that, at least at this juncture, a claim against Prime EFS under the 2018 agreement would be improper. As noted above, in the 2018 agreement, it is merely agreed that, “[i]n lieu of the receipt of cash by Rosemary Mazzola at Closing, Rosemary Mazzola has agreed to loan such cash amount to the Company [Prime] to be used for working capital.” No terms and conditions of the loan were specified. Hence, defendants assert, a suit against Prime EFS on the loan today would be at least premature.

By order entered November 5, 2020, the Court gave new counsel for Mrs. Mazzola, the 80-year-old mother of Frank Mazzola, until November 23, 2020, to file an amended complaint in this action and, if warranted by the amended complaint, gave defendants until December 7, 2020 to file a renewed letter motion to dismiss this lawsuit.

Both defendants believe the complaint in this matter lacks merit and intend to mount a vigorous defense to the action.

As of September 30, 2020, this $94,000 liability is included in due to related parties on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Prime EFS v. Amazon Logistics, Inc.

As previously reported, on June 19, 2020, Amazon notified Prime EFS that Amazon does not intend to renew the In-Force Agreement when it expires. In the Prime EFS Termination Notice, Amazon stated that the In-Force Agreement expires on September 30, 2020. Prime EFS believed on advice of counsel that Amazon’s position misconstrued the expiration date under the In-Force Agreement. Prime EFS therefore filed an arbitration at the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) seeking temporary, preliminary, and permanent injunctive relief prohibiting Amazon from terminating the In-Force Agreement prior to March 31, 2021 (the “Amazon Arbitration”).

September 30, 2020

In a ruling issued July 30, 2020, the arbitrator appointed by the AAA on an emergency basis affirmed the validity of Amazon’s construction of the In-Force Agreement and notice terminating that agreement effective September 30, 2020. The Company concluded, on advice of counsel, that no court would suspend, vacate or modify the July 30, 2020, ruling.

Also as previously disclosed, on July 17, 2020, Amazon notified Shypdirect by the Shypdirect Termination Notice that Amazon had elected to terminate the Program Agreement between Amazon and Shypdirect effective as of November 14, 2020.

Amazon did not state a reason for the Shypdirect Termination Notice. Under the Program Agreement, Amazon can terminate the agreement without a reason and solely for convenience on 120 days’ notice.

In a “Separation Agreement” dated August 23, 2020, by and among Amazon, Prime EFS and the Company, Prime EFS and the Company agreed, for nominal consideration, that the Delivery Service Partner Program Agreement between Amazon and Prime EFS would terminate effective September 30, 2020; that Prime EFS and the Company would cooperate in an orderly transition of the last-mile delivery business from Prime EFS to other service providers; that Prime EFS would return any and all vehicles leased from Element Fleet Corporation by October 7, 2020 in good repair; and that Prime EFS would dismiss the Amazon Arbitration with prejudice. Under the same Separation Agreement, Prime EFS and the Company released any and all claims they had against Amazon and covenant not to sue Amazon. In a “Settlement and Release Agreement” dated August 21, 2020, by and among Amazon, Shypdirect, Prime EFS and the Company, Amazon withdrew the Shypdirect Termination Notice and extended the term of the Program Agreement to and including May 14, 2021. In the Settlement and Release Agreement, Shypdirect released any and all claims it had against Amazon, arising under the Program Agreement between Amazon and Shypdirect effective as of November 14, 2020, or otherwise.

Default by Prime EFS on June 4, 2020 Settlement with Creditors

On June 4, 2020, Prime EFS LLC (“Prime EFS”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, agreed with two related creditors (the “Creditors”) to a payment plan (the “Payment Plan”) to settle, without interest, a total outstanding balance of $2,038,556.06 (the “Outstanding Balance”) owed by Prime EFS to the Creditors.

Pursuant to the Payment Plan, Prime EFS was obligated to pay $75,000.00 to the Creditors on or before June 5, 2020 and $75,000.00 to the Creditors on or before June 12, 2020.

Thereafter, under the Payment Plan, beginning on June 19, 2020, Prime EFS was obligated to make weekly payments of $15,000.00 to the Creditors each Friday for 125 weeks ending with a final payment of $13,556.06 on November 18, 2022.

Under the Payment Plan, Prime EFS also agreed that, if it fails to make a scheduled payment or otherwise defaults on its obligations, the remaining Outstanding Balance would be accelerated and due, in full, within five business days after receipt by Prime EFS of a notice of default from the Creditors.

Under the Payment Plan, Prime EFS also agreed that, if Prime EFS does not pay the remaining Outstanding Balance within five business days after receipt of a notice of default, then the Creditors will be entitled to 9% per annum simple interest on the remaining Outstanding Balance from the date of default and to recover attorneys’ fees and costs for enforcement.

Prime EFS made the $75,000 payments due on each of June 5, 2020 and June 12, 2020.

Prime EFS also made each of the weekly payments due through Friday, September 18, 2020. However, Prime EFS did not make the payment due Friday, September 25, 2020, did not make any further weekly payment due under the Payment Plan, and has no present plan or intention to make any further payments under the Payment Plan because it lacks the cash-on-hand to do so.

By letter dated October 16, 2020, attorneys for the Creditors gave Prime EFS notice of default (the “Notice of Default”) under the settlement agreement that documents the Payment Plan and related terms and conditions. The Notice of Default correctly states that Prime EFS did not make the payment due under the Payment Plan on September 25, 2020 and has not made any further weekly payments since September 25, 2020. The Notice of Default correctly demands, under the settlement agreement that documents the Payment Plan and related terms and conditions, that, as of the day of Prime EFS’s default, Prime EFS owed the Creditors $1,678,556.06, which is accrued on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance at September 30, 2020. In the Notice of Default, the Creditors reserve the right to institute legal proceedings against Prime EFS for its defaults under the Payment Plan, to seek default interest at 9% per annum and to seek the Creditors’ costs of collection.

To date, Prime EFS has not responded to the Notice of Default and has no present plan or intention to respond.

Dispute between Patrick Nicholson and Prime EFS

By letter dated October 9, 2020, attorneys representing Patrick Nicholson allege that Prime EFS is in default of its payment obligations under a “10% Senior Secured Demand Promissory Note” issued February 13, 2019, in the principal amount of $165,000, and under a second promissory note issued April 24, 2019 in the principal amount of $55,000.

In the demand, the attorneys for Mr. Nicholson allege the total balance owed, including interest, is $332,702.84 and that interest is continuing to accrue on each promissory note.

In the demand, the attorneys for Mr. Nicholson also contend that the Company is jointly and severally liable with Prime EFS for this balance.

In the demand, the attorneys for Mr. Nicholson also contend that the great bulk ($276,169) of the alleged balance due arises under the “10% Senior Secured Demand Promissory Note” issued February 13, 2019. However, this promissory note is, by its express terms, governed by New York law, and, in the opinion of Prime EFS’s counsel, such note is usurious on the face of it and unenforceable.

Further, in the opinion of counsel, formed after reasonable inquiry, neither promissory note is enforceable against any person or entity other than Prime EFS. If, as threatened, Mr. Nicholson files suit for non-payment under either or both promissory notes, it is anticipated that the defendant(s) will mount a vigorous defense to the action.

Jose R. Mercedes-Mejia v. Shypdirect LLC, Prime EFS LLC et al.

On August 4, 2020, an action was filed against Shypdirect, Prime EFS and others in the Superior Court of New Jersey for Bergen County captioned Jose R. Mercedes-Mejia v. Shypdirect LLC, Prime EFS LLC et al. The case was assigned docket number BER-L-004534-20. In this action, the plaintiff seeks reimbursement of his medical expenses and damages for personal injuries following an accident with a box truck leased by Prime EFS and being driven by a Prime EFS employee, in which the plaintiff’s ankle was injured. Plaintiff has thus far transmitted medical bills exceeding $789,000. Prime EFS and Shypdirect have demanded their vehicle liability carrier assume the defense of this action. To date, the carrier has not done so, allegedly inter alia because the box truck was not on the list of insured vehicles at the time of the accident.

On November 9, 2020, Prime EFS and Shypdirect filed their answer to the complaint in this action and also filed a third-party action against the insurance company in an effort to obtain defense and indemnity for this action. We intend to vigorously defend against this claim and to pursue the coverage action. However, the Company cannot evaluate the likelihood of an adverse outcome or estimate its liability, if any, in connection with this claim.

Valesky v. Prime EFS and Frank Mazzola

Plaintiff, an ex-dispatcher for Prime EFS, brought an action in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey under the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1933 and the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination seeking unspecified compensatory and punitive damages. Plaintiff alleges she was fired while still in a neck brace. Prime EFS’ insurer has acknowledged its duty to defend this matter and the Company and Prime EFS expect that the insurer will ultimately indemnify Prime EFS for any damages paid.

Ynes Accilien v. Prime EFS

An action brought on April 27, 2020 in the Superior Court of New Jersey for Bergen County by the plaintiff alleging injuries from a May 12, 2019 collision with a van leased by Prime EFS and operated by Prime EFS employees. The plaintiff has also filed a workers’ compensation claim. Prime EFS’ insurer has acknowledged its duty to defend this matter and the Company and Prime EFS expect that the insurer will ultimately indemnify Prime EFS for any damages paid.

Other than discussed above, as of September 30, 2020, there were no pending or threatened lawsuits that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on results of our operations.

Consulting Agreement

The Company retained the services of a consultant, Ascentaur, LLC (“Ascentaur”), pursuant to a Consulting Agreement between the Company and Ascentaur dated February 21, 2020, as amended (the “Consulting Agreement”).

As consideration for Mr. Giordano’s services, Ascentaur receives a base consulting fee of $300,000 annually, payable in installments of $12,500 twice a month and is eligible for bonuses based on certain Company revenue, EBITDA, market capitalization or capital raise milestones. In addition, upon approval by the Board, Ascentaur received stock warrants to purchase up to 25,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $0.06 per share. Mr. Giordano is also eligible for the Company’s standard medical and dental plans. Upon any termination of the Consulting Agreement by the Company without “Cause,” by Mr. Giordano for “Good Reason,” or by expiration and non-renewal of the Consulting Agreement as of the Termination, Mr. Giordano will receive (i) a separation payment equal to one year’s worth of the base consulting fee, (ii) all accrued and unpaid bonuses and (iii) accelerated vesting of all unvested options he may have received. The Company and Mr. Giordano have also, as required by Nevada Revised Statutes Section 78.751, entered into an Indemnity Agreement (the “Indemnity Agreement”) whereby the Company indemnifies Mr. Giordano and Ascentaur, to the fullest extent as provided by Nevada corporate law, for all fees, costs and charges (including attorneys’ fees) for any actual or threatened claims against him, except to the extent that Mr. Giordano’s actions constituted gross negligence; criminal, fraudulent or reckless misconduct; or, with respect to any criminal actions, Mr. Giordano had reasonable cause to believe his actions were unlawful.

NOTE 13 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Issuance of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock

To consummate the Series E Offering, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) created the Series E Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series E”) pursuant to the authority vested in the Board by the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation to issue up to 10,000,0000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share, of which 7,049,999 are unissued and undesignated. The Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation explicitly authorize the Board to issue any or all of such shares of preferred stock in one (1) or more classes or series and to fix the designations, powers, preferences and rights, the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, including dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, redemption prices, liquidation preferences and the number of shares constituting any class or series, without further vote or action by the stockholders.

On October 6, 2020, the Board filed the Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series E COD”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada designating 562,250 shares of preferred stock as Series E. Each holder of Series E has the right to cast the number of votes equal to the number of whole shares of Common Stock into which the shares of Series E held by such holder are convertible as of the applicable record date.

The Series E has a stated value of $13.34 per share (the “Stated Value”). If, on or after October 8, 2021, the Company does not have at least one class of securities listed on the NYSE American, the Nasdaq Capital Market, the Nasdaq Global Market, the Nasdaq Global Select Market or the New York Stock Exchange (subject to extension if the Company has an application pending for such a listing) the holders of a majority of the then-outstanding Series E may demand that their Series E be redeemed at a price equal to the Stated Value per share plus all declared but unpaid dividends thereon.

On a pari passu basis with the holders of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock that is currently issued and outstanding, upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the business of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, the Series E is entitled to receive an amount per share equal to the Stated Value and then receive a pro-rata portion of the remaining assets available for distribution to the holders of Common Stock on an as-converted to Common Stock basis. Until the date that such Series E shareholder no longer owns at least 50% of the Series E, the holders of Series E have the right to participate, pro rata, in each subsequent financing in an amount up to 25% of the total proceeds of such financing on the same terms, conditions and price otherwise available in such subsequent financing.

Subject to a beneficial ownership limitation and customary adjustments for stock dividends and stock splits, each share of Series E is initially convertible the Company’s common shares equal to the sum of (i) 1,000 multiplied by (ii) a fraction (A) the numerator if which is $0.01334 and (B) the denominator of which is equal to the conversion price in effect at the time of conversion. The initial conversion price of $0.01334 and is subject to adjustment for stock dividends and stock splits and dilutive issuances as defined in the Series E COD. A holder of Series E may not convert any shares of Series E into Common Stock if the holder (together with the holder’s affiliates and any persons acting as a group together with the holder or any of the holder’s affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the conversion, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Series E COD. However, upon notice from the holder to the Company, the holder may decrease or increase the beneficial ownership limitation, which may not exceed 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Series E COD, provided that any such increase or decrease in the beneficial ownership limitation will not take effect until 61 days following notice to the Company.

In connection with the Series E Offering, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement pursuant to which the Company agreed to file a registration statement on Form S-1 to register the resale of the shares of Common Stock issuable to the Investors upon conversion of the Series E and exercise of the Warrants. If a registration statement registering for resale all of the shares of common stock issuable under Series E Convertible Preferred Stock and Warrants (i) is not filed with the Commission by the Company within 30 days of the closing date of October 8, 2020 or any other registration statement, (ii) is not declared effective by the Commission by the Effectiveness Date of the initial registration statement (90 days following the closing date) or any other registration statement, or (iii) after the effective date of a registration statement, such registration statement ceases for any reason to remain continuously effective as to all registrable securities included in such registration statement for more than 30 calendar days during any 12-month period (any such failure or breach being referred to as an “Event”, and the date on which such Event occurs, being referred to as “Event Date”), then, in addition to any other rights the Holders may have hereunder or under applicable law, on each such Event Date and on each monthly anniversary of each such Event Date (if the applicable Event shall not have been cured by such date) until the applicable Event is cured, the Company shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to 1% of the purchase price paid by such Holder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, during which such Event continues uncured. The partial liquidated damages pursuant to the terms hereof shall apply on a daily pro rata basis for any portion of a month prior to the cure of an Event. The Company did not file its registration statement with 30 days of the closing date. However, the Company plans on filing they registration statement prior to the Event Date.

The initial exercise price of the Warrants is $0.04 per share, subject to adjustment as provided therein.

Common Shares issued Conversion of Series D Preferred Shares

Subsequent to September 30, 2020, the Company issued 32,269,000 shares of its common stock in connection with the conversion of 32,269 shares of Series D. The conversion ratio was 1,000 shares of common stock for each share of Series D based on the Series D COD.

Common shares issued conversion of Debt and Accrued Interest

In October 2020, the Company issued 53,255,583 shares of its common stock in connection with the conversion of a convertible note payable and default interest of $293,150 and accrued interest of $26,384. The conversion price was based on contractual terms of the related debt.

In October and November 2020, the Company issued 5,939,432 shares of its common stock in connection with the conversion of accrued interest of $36,317. The conversion price was based on contractual terms of the related debt.

Legal Matters

For legal matters subsequent to September 30, 2020, see Note 9.

Asset Acquisition

On November 11, 2020 the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, TLSS Acquisition, Inc. (the “Acquisition Sub”), entered into an asset purchase agreement (“APA”) to acquire substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of Cougar Express, Inc., a New York-based full-service logistics provider specializing in pickup, warehousing and delivery services in the tri-state area (“Cougar Express”). TLSS Acquisition, Inc. was incorporated on November 16, 2020 in the State of Delaware.

Cougar Express is a family-owned full-service transportation business that has been in operation for more than 30 years providing one-to-four person deliveries and offering white glove services. It utilizes its own fleet of trucks, warehouse/driver/office personnel and on-call subcontractors from its convenient and secure New York, JFK airport area, location, allowing it to pick-up and deliver throughout the New York tri-state area. Cougar Express serves a diverse base of 50 commercial accounts, which are freight forwarders that work with some of the most notable retail businesses in the country. Some of Cougar Express’s accounts have been customers of Cougar Express for more than 20 years.

The APA provides for a purchase price equal to $2,350,000 plus 50% of the difference between the accounts receivable acquired by the Acquisition Sub and the accounts payable assumed by the Acquisition Sub. The Acquisition Sub will also assume indebtedness on certain truck leases and other equipment and service plans for equipment and services that are used by Cougar Express and which will continue to be used by the Acquisition Sub post-closing. After closing, the Acquisition Sub plans to change its name to Cougar Express, Inc., and the seller (the current Cougar Express, Inc. corporation) and its owner would be barred from competing with the Cougar Express business for five years.

The transaction is scheduled to close no later than January 15, 2021, subject to the completion of satisfactory due diligence by TLSS to confirm the accuracy of all of Cougar Express’s representations and warranties in the APA and that Cougar Express has not suffered a material adverse change in its business, and also subject to Cougar Express’s procuring an acceptable landlord’s consent to Cougar Express’s assignment of the lease for its operating facility to the Acquisition Sub, and also subject to TLSS’s securing financing for the acquisition.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements made in this Form 10-Q that are not historical or current facts are “forward-looking statements” made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These statements often can be identified by the use of terms such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “approximate” or “continue,” or the negative thereof. We intend that such forward-looking statements be subject to the safe harbors for such statements. We wish to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. Any forward-looking statements represent management’s best judgment as to what may occur in the future. However, forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and important factors beyond our control that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from historical results of operations and events and those presently anticipated or projected. Factors that may affect the results of our operations include, among others: whether the OTC Markets Group approves our application to OTCQB; our ability to successfully execute our business strategies, including integration of acquisitions and the future acquisition of other businesses to grow our Company; customers’ cancellation on short notice of master service agreements from which we derive a significant portion of our revenue or our failure to renew such master service agreements on favorable terms or at all; our ability to attract and retain key personnel and skilled labor to meet the requirements of our labor-intensive business or labor difficulties which could have an effect on our ability to bid for and successfully complete contracts; the ultimate geographic spread, duration and severity of the coronavirus outbreak and the effectiveness of actions taken, or actions that may be taken, by governmental authorities to contain the outbreak or ameliorate its effects; our failure to compete effectively in our highly competitive industry, which could reduce the number of new contracts awarded to us or adversely affect our market share and harm our financial performance; our ability to adopt and master new technologies and adjust certain fixed costs and expenses to adapt to our industry’s and customers’ evolving demands; our history of losses, deficiency in working capital and a stockholders’ deficit and our inability to achieve sustained profitability; material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting and our ability to maintain effective controls over financial reporting in the future; our substantial indebtedness, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations and our ability to meet our payment obligations; the impact of new or changed laws, regulations or other industry standards that could adversely affect our ability to conduct our business; and changes in general market, economic, social and political conditions in the United States and global economies or financial markets, including those resulting from natural or man-made disasters.

Other important factors which could cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this document include, but are not limited to, those discussed in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” as well as those discussed elsewhere in this report and as set forth from time to time in our other public filings and public statements. You should not assume that material events subsequent to the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have or have not occurred. In addition to the other information included in this report, including the factors identified in Part II Item 1A of this report, and our other public filings and releases, a discussion of factors affecting our business is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” and should be considered while evaluating our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

You should read this report in its entirety and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. We may not update these forward-looking statements, even in the event that our situation changes in the future, except as required by law. All forward-looking statements attributable to us are expressly qualified by these cautionary statements.

Effects of COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic and resulting global disruptions have affected our businesses, as well as those of our customers and their third-party suppliers and sellers. To serve our customers while also providing for the safety of our employees and service providers, we have adapted numerous aspects of our logistics and transportation processes. We continue to monitor the rapidly evolving situation and expect to continue to adapt our operations to address federal, state, and local standards as well as to implement standards or processes that we determine to be in the best interests of our employees, customers, and communities.

As reflected in the discussion below, the impact of the pandemic and actions taken in response to it had minimal effects on our results of operations. We are experiencing higher net sales, which reflect increased demand, particularly as more people are staying at home, for household staples and other essential products, partially offset by decreased demand for discretionary consumer products, delayed procurement and shipment of non-priority products, and supply chain interruptions. Other effects include increased fulfillment costs and cost of sales, primarily due to investments in employee hiring, pay, and benefits, as well as costs to maintain safe workplaces, and higher shipping costs. We expect to continue to be affected by possible procurement and shipping delays, supply chain interruptions, higher product demand in certain categories, lower product demand in other categories, and increased fulfillment costs and cost of sales as a percentage of net sales through at least Q4 2020, although it is not possible to determine the duration and spread of the pandemic or such actions, the ultimate impact on our results of operations during 2020, or whether other currently unanticipated consequences of the pandemic are reasonably likely to materially affect our results of operations.

Termination of agreement with Amazon

On June 19, 2020, Amazon Logistics, Inc. (“Amazon”) notified Prime EFS in writing (the “Prime EFS Termination Notice”), that Amazon did not intend to renew its Delivery Service Partner (DSP) Agreement with Prime EFS when that agreement (the “In-Force Agreement”) expired. In the Prime EFS Termination Notice, Amazon stated that the In-Force Agreement expired on September 30, 2020.

Additionally, on July 17, 2020, Amazon notified Shypdirect that Amazon had elected to terminate the Amazon Relay Carrier Terms of Service (the “Program Agreement”) between Amazon and Shypdirect effective as of November 14, 2020 (the “Shypdirect Termination Notice”). However, on August 3, 2020, Amazon offered to withdraw the Shypdirect Termination Notice and extend the term of the Program Agreement to and including May 14, 2021, conditioned on Prime EFS executing, for nominal consideration, a separation agreement with Amazon under which Prime EFS would agree to cooperate in an orderly transition of its Amazon last-mile delivery business to other service providers, release any and all claims it may have had against Amazon, and covenant not to sue Amazon (the “Aug. 3 Proposal”). On August 4, 2020, the Company, Prime EFS and Shypdirect accepted the Aug. 3 Proposal.

Approximately 58.5% and 39.0% (for a total of 97.5%) of the Company’s revenue of $23,503,384 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 were attributable to Prime EFS’s last-mile DSP business and Shypdirect’s mid-mile and long-haul business with Amazon, respectively. The termination of the Amazon last-mile business will have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business in the 4th fiscal quarter of 2020 and thereafter. If the Amazon mid-mile and long-haul business is discontinued after May 14, 2021 it would have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business in 2nd fiscal quarter of 2021 and thereafter.

Overview

Transportation and Logistics Systems, Inc. (“TLSS” or the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada, on July 25, 2008. The Company operates through its subsidiaries as a logistics and transportation company specializing in ecommerce fulfillment, last mile deliveries, two-person home delivery, mid-mile, and long-haul services for predominantly online retailers.

On March 30, 2017 (the “Closing Date”), TLSS and Save On Transport Inc. (“Save On”) entered into a Share Exchange Agreement, dated as of the same date (the “Share Exchange Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, on the Closing Date, Save On became a wholly-owned subsidiary of TLSS (the “Reverse Merger”). Save On was incorporated in the state of Florida and started business on July 12, 2016. This transaction was treated as a reverse merger and recapitalization of Save On for financial reporting purposes because the Save On shareholders retained an approximate 80% controlling interest in the post-merger consolidated entity. Save On was considered the acquirer for accounting purposes, and the Company’s historical financial statements before the Reverse Merger were replaced with the historical financial statements of Save On before the Reverse Merger. The balance sheets at their historical cost basis of both entities were combined at the Closing Date and the results of operations from the Closing Date forward include the historical results of Save On and results of TLSS from the Closing Date forward. On May 1, 2019, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement with Save On and Steven Yariv, whereby the Company returned all of the stock of Save On to Steven Yariv in exchange for Mr. Yariv conveying 1,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company back to the Company. In addition, the Company granted an aggregate of 80,000 options to certain employees of Save On. On April 16, 2019, Mr. Yariv ceased to be an officer or director of the Company.

On July 24, 2018, we formed Shypdirect LLC (“Shypdirect”), a company organized under the laws of New Jersey. Shypdirect is a transportation company with a focus on tractor trailer and box truck deliveries of product on the east coast of the United States from one distributor’s warehouse to another warehouse or from a distributor’s warehouse to the post office.

The following discussion highlights the results of our operations and the principal factors that have affected the Company’s consolidated financial condition as well as its liquidity and capital resources for the periods described, and provides information that management believes is relevant for an assessment and understanding of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations presented herein. The following discussion and analysis are based on the condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. You should read the discussion and analysis together with such consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto.

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 include a summary of our significant accounting policies and should be read in conjunction with the discussion below.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Accounting Estimates

The methods, estimates, and judgments that we use in applying our accounting policies have a significant impact on the results that we report in our condensed consolidated financial statements. Some of our accounting policies require us to make difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates regarding matters that are inherently uncertain. Significant estimates included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes include the valuation of accounts receivable, the useful life of property and equipment, the valuation of intangible assets, the valuation of right of use assets and related liabilities, assumptions used in assessing impairment of long-lived assets, estimates of current and deferred income taxes and deferred tax valuation allowances, the fair value of non-cash equity transactions, the valuation of derivative liabilities, and the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the business acquisition.

We have identified the accounting policies below as critical to our business operation:

Accounts receivable

Impairment of long-lived assets

In accordance with ASC Topic 360, we review long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable, or at least annually. We recognize an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s estimated fair value and its book value.

Derivative financial instruments

We have certain financial instruments that are embedded derivatives associated with capital raises. We evaluate all our financial instruments to determine if those contracts or any potential embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for in accordance with ASC 810-10-05-4 and 815-40. This accounting treatment requires that the carrying amount of any embedded derivatives be recorded at fair value at issuance and marked-to-market at each balance sheet date. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, as is the case with the Company, the change in the fair value during the period is recorded as either other income or expense. Upon conversion, exercise or repayment, the respective derivative liability is marked to fair value at the conversion, repayment or exercise date and then the related fair value amount is reclassified to other income or expense as part of gain or loss on extinguishment.

In July 2017, FASB issued ASU No. 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260); Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480); Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): (Part I) Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features. These amendments simplify the accounting for certain financial instruments with down-round features. The amendments require companies to disregard the down-round feature when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to its own stock, for purposes of determining liability or equity classification. The guidance was adopted as of January 1, 2019 and we elected to record the effect of this adoption retrospectively to outstanding financial instruments with a down round feature by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of the beginning of 2019, the period which the amendment is effective. In accordance with the guidance presented in ASU 2017-11, the fair value of derivative liabilities associated with certain convertible notes as of December 31, 2018 of $838,471 and the offsetting effect of reclassifying such debt to stock-settled debt for which we recorded a put premium liability of $385,385 was reclassified by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to opening accumulated deficit as of January 1, 2019 in the amount of $453,086.

Leases

On January 1, 2019, we adopted ASU No. 2016-02, applying the package of practical expedients to leases that commenced before the effective date whereby the Company elected to not reassess the following: (i) whether any expired or existing contracts contain leases and; (ii) initial direct costs for any existing leases. For contracts entered into on or after the effective date, at the inception of a contract the Company assessed whether the contract is, or contains, a lease. The Company’s assessment is based on: (1) whether the contract involves the use of a distinct identified asset, (2) whether we obtain the right to substantially all the economic benefit from the use of the asset throughout the period, and (3) whether it has the right to direct the use of the asset. We will allocate the consideration in the contract to each lease component based on its relative stand-alone price to determine the lease payments. We have elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a term of 12 months or less.

Operating lease ROU assets represents the right to use the leased asset for the lease term and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. As most leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the adoption date in determining the present value of future payments. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is amortized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Revenue recognition and cost of revenue

The Company adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition. This ASC is based on the principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This ASC also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer service orders, including significant judgments.

For the Company’s Prime EFS and Shypdirect business activities, we recognize revenues and the related direct costs of such revenue which generally include compensation and related benefits, gas costs, insurance, parking and tolls, truck rental fees, and maintenance fees as of the date the freight is delivered which is when the performance obligation is satisfied. In accordance with ASC Topic 606, we recognize revenue on a gross basis. Our payment terms are net seven days from acceptance of delivery. We do not incur incremental costs obtaining service orders from our Prime EFS and Shypdirect customers, however, if we did, because all of Prime EFS and Shypdirect’s customer contracts are less than a year in duration, any contract costs incurred would be expensed rather than capitalized. The revenue that we recognize arises from deliveries of packages on behalf of the Company’s customers. Primarily, our performance obligations under these service orders correspond to each delivery of packages that we make under the service agreements. Control of the delivery transfers to the recipient upon delivery. Once this occurs, we have satisfied our performance obligation and we recognize revenue.

Management has reviewed the revenue disaggregation disclosure requirements pursuant to ASC 606 and determined that no further disaggregation disclosure is required to be presented.

Stock-based compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of ASC 718 – “Compensation –Stock Compensation”, which requires recognition in the financial statements of the cost of employee, director, and non-employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee, director, or non-employee is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee, director, and non-employee services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. We have elected to recognize forfeitures as they occur as permitted under ASU 2016-09 Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue our operation.

We expect we will require additional capital to meet our long-term operating requirements. We expect to raise additional capital through, among other things, the sale of equity or debt securities.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared with the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019

The following table sets forth our revenues, expenses and net loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. The financial information below is derived from our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.

Results of Operations

Revenues

For the three months ended September 30, 2020, our revenues from continuing operations were $6,309,509 as compared to $7,759,451 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of $1,449,942, or 18.7%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, our revenues from continuing operations were $23,503,384 as compared to $21,664,070 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, an increase of $1,839,314, or 8.5%. This (decrease) increase was primarily a result of an increase in revenue from box truck and tractor truck delivery services where we transport product from a distribution center to the post office offset by a decrease in last-mile deliveries performed.

As discussed above, approximately 58.5% and 39.0% of our revenue of $23,503,384 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 were attributable to Prime EFS’s last-mile DSP business and Shypdirect’s mid-mile and long-haul business with Amazon, respectively. The termination of the Amazon last-mile business will have a material adverse impact on our business in the 4th fiscal quarter of 2020 and thereafter. If the Amazon mid-mile and long-haul business is discontinued after May 14, 2021, it would have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business in 2nd fiscal quarter of 2021 and thereafter. The Company will continue to: (i) seek to replace its last-mile DSP Amazon business and supplement its mid-mile and long-haul Amazon business with other, non-Amazon, customers; (ii) explore other strategic relationships; and (iii) identify potential acquisition opportunities, while continuing to execute our restructuring plan, commenced in February 2020.

Cost of Revenue

For the three months ended September 30, 2020, our cost of revenues from continuing operations was $5,978,265 compared to $6,293,699 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of $315,434, or 5.0%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, our cost of revenues from continuing operations was $20,831,870 compared to $19,366,374 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, an increase of $1,465,496, or 7.6%. Cost of revenues relating to our Prime EFS and Shypdirect segments consists of truck and van rental fees, insurance, gas, maintenance, parking and tolls, and compensation and related benefits.

Gross Profit

For the three months ended September 30, 2020, our gross profit was $331,244, or 5.3% of revenue, as compared to $1,465,752, or 18.9% of revenue, for the three months ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of $1,134,508, or 77.4%. The decrease in gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2019 primarily resulted from a decrease in revenue and a decrease in operational efficiencies in Prime EFS doe to the termination of the Amazon last-mile business. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, our gross profit was $2,671,514, or 11.4% of revenue, as compared to $2,297,696, or 10.6% of revenue, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, an increase of $373,818, or 16.3%. The increase in gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019 primarily resulted from an increase in operational efficiencies in both Prime EFS and Shypdirect. Additionally, during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we received a reduction in workers’ compensation balances due of approximately $155,000 resulting from positive results from a prior period workers’ compensation premium audit.

Operating Expenses

For the three months ended September 30, 2020, total operating expenses amounted to $1,502,829 as compared to $4,755,410 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of $3,252,581, or 68.4%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, total operating expenses amounted to $6,591,345 as compared to $17,049,069 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of $10,457,724, or 61.3%. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, operating expenses consisted of the following:

Compensation and related benefits

For the three months ended September 30, 2020, compensation and related benefits amounted to $551,306 as compared to $3,433,741 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of $2,882,435. Compensation and related benefits for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 included stock-based compensation of $0 and $2,500,000, respectively, a decrease of $2,500,000, from the granting of shares of our common stock to employees, our former chief executive officer, and our new chief executive officer for services rendered. Additionally, during the three months ended September 30, 2020, the overall decrease in compensation and related benefits was attributable to a decrease in compensation paid to significant employees and the reduction of staff.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compensation and related benefits amounted to $1,955,854 as compared to $11,150,955 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of $9,195,101. Compensation and related benefits for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 included stock-based compensation of $0 and $7,450,809, respectively, a decrease of $7,450,809, from the granting of shares of our common stock to employees, our former chief executive officer, and our new chief executive officer for services rendered. Additionally, during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the overall decrease in compensation and related benefits was attributable to a decrease in compensation paid to significant employees and the reduction of staff.

During the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, we incurred stock-based consulting fees of $0 and $28,646, respectively, from the issuance of our common shares and warrants to consultants for business development services rendered, a decrease of $28,646. Additionally, we had an incurred an increase in accounting fees attributable to an increase in auditing and third-party accountant fees, and an increase in legal fees.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, we incurred stock-based consulting fees of $1,999,749 and $294,145, respectively, from the issuance of our common shares and warrants to consultants for business development services rendered, an increase of $1,705,603. Additionally, we had an increase in legal fees related to an increase in ongoing legal matters.

Rent expense

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, rent expense was $496,349 as compared to $269,148 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, an increase of $227,201, or 84.4%. These increases were attributable to a significant expansion in office, warehouse and parking spaces pursuant to short and long-term operating leases related to the Prime EFS and Shypdirect businesses.

General and administrative expenses

For the three months ended September 30, 2020, general and administrative expenses were $173,680 as compared to $720,481 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of $546,801, or 75.9%. This decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in general administrative expenses of $305,370 and a decrease in depreciation and amortization of $241,431. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense was related to a decrease in amortization of intangible assets of $219,433 and a decrease in depreciation expense of $21,998. In 2020, we cut our overall general and administrative expenses due to cost-cutting measures taken. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, general and administrative expenses were $615,331 as compared to $2,316,016 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of $1,700,685, or 73.4%. This decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in general administrative expenses of $869,766 and a decrease in depreciation and amortization of $830,919. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense was related to a decrease in amortization of intangible assets of $742,985 due to impairment of the intangible in 2019, and a decrease in depreciation expense of $87,934. In 2020, we cut our overall general and administrative expenses due to cost-cutting measures taken.

For the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, aggregate interest expense was $2,051,644 and $2,375,261, respectively, a decrease of $323,617. The decrease in interest expense resulted from a decrease in interest-bearing loans due to debt conversions into common shares and Series D preferred shares and a decrease in the amortization of original issue discount. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, aggregate interest expense was $7,168,859 and $5,120,343, respectively, an increase of $2,048,516. The increase in interest expense resulted from an increase in the interest rate on interest-bearing loans due to default provisions and an increase in the amortization of original issue discount. Additionally, during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we incurred a 30% default interest penalty of $1,531,335, which was included in interest expense. We did not incur this expense during the 2019 period.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, loan fees were $601,121. In connection with previous promissory notes payable, on June 11, 2019, we issued 55,000 warrants to purchase 55,000 shares of common stock an exercise price of $1.00 per share. On June 11, 2019, we calculated the fair value of these warrants of $601,121, which was expensed and included in loan fees on the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations. We did not incur such expense during the 2020 periods.

For the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt was $907,447 and $(4,714,751), respectively, a change of $5,622,198. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, gain on extinguishment of debt was $7,151,041 and $39,203,017, respectively, a decrease of $32,051,976. The gains (loss) on debt extinguishment were attributable to the settlement of secured merchant in 2020, the conversion of convertible debt, and the settlement of other payables.

For the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, derivative (income) expense was $(37,826,129) and $981,244, respectively, a change of $38,807,373. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, derivative expense was $31,835,642 and $56,018,849, respectively, a decrease of $24,183,207. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, we recorded a derivative expense related to the calculated initial derivative fair value of conversion options and warrants. Additionally, we adjusted our derivative liabilities to fair value and recorded derivative expense or income. Furthermore, upon the conversion of debt to equity, we reduce the derivative liability and record derivative income.

Loss from Continuing Operations

For the three months ended September 30, 2020, income (loss) from continuing operations amounted to $35,602,297 as compared to $(11,360,914) for the three months ended September 30, 2019, a change of $46,963,211. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, loss from continuing operations amounted to $35,506,373 as compared to $37,288,669 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of $1,782,296, or 4.8%.

Discontinued Operations

On May 1, 2019, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Save On and Steven Yariv, whereby the Company returned all of the stock of Save On to Steven Yariv in exchange for Mr. Yariv conveying 1,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company back to the Company. In addition, the Company granted an aggregate of 80,000 options to certain employees of Save On. Accordingly, we reflected Save On as a discontinued operations beginning in the second quarter of 2019, the period that Save On was disposed of, and retroactively for all periods presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. The businesses of Save On are considered discontinued operations because: (a) the operations and cash flows of Save On were eliminated from the Company’s operations; and (b) the Company has no interest in the divested operations. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, loss from discontinued operations amounted to $681,426. We did not have discontinued operations during the 2020 periods.

Net Income (Loss)

Due to factors discussed above, for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, net income (loss) amounted to $35,602,297, or $0.03 per basic common share and $(0.00) diluted common share, and $(11,360,914), or $(1.10) per basic and diluted common share respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, net loss amounted to $35,506,373 and $37,970,095, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, net loss attributable to common shareholders, which included a deemed dividend related to price protection of $18,696,012 and $981,548, amounted to $54,202,385, or $(0.11) per basic and diluted common share, and $38,951,643, or $(4.42) per basic and diluted common share, respectively.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. At September 30, 2020, we had a cash balance of $318,356. Our working capital deficit was $12,974,773 at September 30, 2020. We reported a net increase in cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 of $268,330 primarily as a result of net cash proceeds received from payroll protection loans and convertible debt, offset by the use of cash in operations.

We do not believe that our existing working capital and our future cash flows from operating activities will provide sufficient cash to enable us to meet our operating needs and debt requirements for the next twelve months. We expect cash flows to decrease significantly in the fourth quarter of 2020 due to the termination of the Amazon last-mile business. We are seeking to (i) replace its last-mile DSP business and supplement its mid-mile and long-haul business with other, non-Amazon, customers; (ii) explore other strategic relationships; and (iii) identify potential acquisition opportunities, while continuing to execute our restructuring plan, commenced in February 2020.

Additionally, we are seeking to raise capital through additional debt and/or equity financings to fund our operations in the future. Although we have historically raised capital from sales of shares of common stock and from the issuance of convertible promissory notes and notes payable, there is no assurance that we will be able to continue to do so. If we are unable to raise additional capital or secure additional lending in the near future, management expects that we will need to curtail our operations.

Company financing activities

Related Party Convertible Note

On March 13, 2019, we entered into a convertible note agreement with Wendy Cabral, an individual, who is affiliated with the Company’s chief executive officer, in the amount of $500,000.

the overall principal amount of the Bellridge Note was reduced from the original principal amount of $2,497,502 (principal amount was $2,223,918 at April 9, 2019) to $1,800,000, in exchange for the issuance to Bellridge of 800,000 shares of restricted common stock, to be delivered to Bellridge, either in whole or in part, at such time or times as when the beneficial ownership of such shares by Bellridge will not result in Bellridge’s beneficial ownership of more than the Beneficial Ownership Limitation and such shares are to be issued within three business days of the date the Bellridge has represented to the Company that it is below the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. Such issuances will occur in increments of no fewer than the lesser of (i) 50,000 shares and (ii) the balance of the 800,000 shares owed. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” is 4.99% of the number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of common stock issuable pursuant to the Bellridge Modification Agreement. In connection with these shares, the Company recorded a loss on debt extinguishment of $10,248,000 in April 2019.

	●	the registration rights previously granted to Bellridge were eliminated; and

	●	The First Bellridge Warrant and the Second Bellridge Warrant were cancelled and of no further force or effect as of the Bellridge Modification Date. In exchange, the Company issued Bellridge 360,000 shares of restricted common stock.

August 30, 2019 Equity Offering

On August 30, 2019, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with the investor parties thereto (collectively, the “Equity Investors”), pursuant to which the Equity Investors agreed to purchase, severally and not jointly, 585,000 units of the Company, each unit comprised of one share of common stock, and a warrant to purchase one (1) share of common stock (the “Equity Offering”) at an exercise price of $2.50 per share of common stock. The warrants include down-round provisions under which the warrant exercise price could be affected by future equity offerings undertaken by the Company. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, down-round provisions were triggered. As of September 30, 2020, the exercise price of these warrants was lowered to $0.006 per share.

Including the Equity Offering, from August 2019 to October 2019, we issued 619,000 shares of our common stock and 619,000 five-year warrants to purchase common shares for an exercise price of $2.50 per common share to investors for cash proceeds of $1,547,500, or $2.50 per share, pursuant to unit subscription agreements.

August 30, 2019 convertible debt and related warrants

On August 30, 2019, we issued and sold to investors convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $2,469,840 (the “August 2019 Notes”), and warrants to purchase up to 987,940 shares of our common stock (the “August 2019 Warrants”) pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “August 2019 Debt Purchase Agreement”) with accredited investors. We received net proceeds of $295,534, which is net of 10% original issue discounts of $246,984 and origination fees of $61,101, and is net of $1,643,367 for the repayment of notes payable, and net of $222,854 related to the conversion of existing notes payable already outstanding to these lenders into these August 2019 Notes. The August 2019 Notes initially bear interest at 10% per annum and become due and payable on November 30, 2020. During the existence of an Event of Default (as defined in the August 2019 Notes), interest accrues at the lesser of (i) the rate of 18% per annum, or (ii) the maximum amount permitted by law. Commencing on the four-month anniversary of these August 2019 Notes, monthly payments of interest and monthly principal payments, based on a 12 month amortization schedule (each, an “August 2019 Note Amortization Payment”), are due and payable, until November 30, 2020, at which time all outstanding principal, accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts due and payable under the August 2019 Notes will be immediately due and payable. The August 2019 Note Amortization Payments are made in cash unless the investor requests payment in our common stock in lieu of a cash payment (each, an “August 2019 Note Stock Payment”). If the investor requests an August 2019 Note Stock Payment, the number of shares of common stock issued is based on the amount of the applicable August 2019 Note Amortization Payment divided by 80% of the lowest VWAP (as defined in the August 2019 Notes) during the five Trading Day (as defined in the August 2019 Notes) period prior to the due date of the August 2019 Note Amortization Payment.

From the original issue date until the August 2019 Notes are no longer outstanding, the August 2019 Notes are convertible, in whole or in part, at any time, and from time to time, into shares of common stock at the option of the investor. The initial conversion price of the August 2019 Notes was the lower of: (i) $3.50 per share and (ii) the price per share paid by investors in the contemplated equity offering of up to $1,000,000. If an Event of Default (as defined in the August 2019 Notes) has occurred, regardless of whether it has been cured or remains ongoing, the August 2019 Notes were initially convertible at the lower of: (i) $3.50 and (ii) 70% of the second lowest closing price of the common stock as reported on the Trading Market (as defined in the August 2019 Notes) during the 20 consecutive Trading Day (as defined in the August 2019 Notes) period ending and including the Trading Day (as defined in the August 2019 Notes) immediately preceding the delivery or deemed delivery of the applicable notice of conversion (the “August 2019 Note Default Conversion Price”).

In January 2020, we defaulted on our August 30, 2019 convertible debt due to non-payment of the required amortization payment due. Accordingly, the outstanding principal balance on date of default increased by 30% amounting to approximately $724,000, default interest accrues at 18%, and the default conversion terms now apply as described above. All such Conversion Price determinations are to be appropriately adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, reclassification or similar transaction that proportionately decreases or increases the common stock. These August 2019 Notes and related August 2019 Warrants include a down-round provision under which the August 2019 Note conversion price and August 2019 Warrant exercise price were reduced, on a full-ratchet basis, to $0.006 due to the default on the August 2019 Notes triggering the default conversion price. See Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional details.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we repaid principal of $257,139, settled $128,674 of debt, and we issued 293,677,788 shares of our common stock upon the conversion of principal and default interest of $2,118,311, accrued interest of $48,685 and fees of $1,000. Additionally, accrued interest payable of $84,416 was reclassified to principal balance. During the three months ended September 30, 2020, we issued 39,885,602 shares of our common stock upon the conversion of principal and default interest of $284,249, accrued interest of $8,450 and fees of $900.

Additionally, on July 20, 2020 and July 22, 2020, we entered Exchange Agreements (the “Exchange Agreements”) with two Investors to exchange outstanding August 2019 Notes and August 2019 Warrants for a newly created series of preferred stock designated the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series D”) (See below).

Series D Exchange

On July 20, 2020, the Company entered an Exchange Agreement (the “Cavalry Exchange Agreement”) with one of the investors in the August 2019 Notes and August 2019 Warrants, Cavalry Fund I, LP, (“Cavalry”) to exchange outstanding August 2019 Notes and August 2019 Warrants for a newly created series of preferred stock designated the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series D”).

October 3, 2019 convertible debt and related warrants

On October 3, 2019, the Company issued and sold to an investor a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $166,667 (the “October 3 Note”), and warrants to purchase up to 66,401 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “October 3 Warrant”). The Company received net proceeds of $150,000, which is net of a 10% original issue discounts of $16,667. The October 3 Note initially bore interest at 10% per annum and becomes due and payable on January 3, 2021. During the existence of an Event of Default, interest accrues at the lesser of (i) the rate of 18% per annum, or (ii) the maximum amount permitted by law. Commencing on the four month anniversary of the October 3 Note, monthly payments of interest and monthly principal payments, based on a 12 month amortization schedule (each, an “October 3 Note Amortization Payment”), are due and payable, until the Maturity Date, at which time all outstanding principal, accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts due and payable under the October 3 Note will be immediately due and payable. The October 3 Note Amortization Payments are made in cash unless the investor requests payment in the Company’s common stock in lieu of a cash payment (each, an “October 3 Note Stock Payment”). If the investor requests an October 3 Note Stock Payment, the number of shares of common stock issued is based on the amount of the applicable October 3 Note Amortization Payment divided by 80% of the lowest VWAP (as defined in the October 3 Note) during the five Trading Day (as defined in the October 3 Note) period prior to the due date of the October 3 Note Amortization Payment.

The October 3 Note may be prepaid, provided that certain Equity Conditions, as defined in the October 3 Note, have been met (or any such failure to meet the Equity Conditions has been waived): (i) from October 3, 2019 until and through January 3, 2020, at an amount equal to 105% of the aggregate of the outstanding principal balance of the October 3 Note and accrued and unpaid interest, and (ii) after January 3, 2020, at an amount equal to 115% of the aggregate of the outstanding principal balance of the October 3 Note and accrued and unpaid interest. In the event that the Company closes a Public Offering, the holder may elect to: (x) have its principal and accrued interest prepaid directly from the proceeds of the Public Offering at the prices set forth above, (y) exchange its October 3 Note at the closing of the Public Offering for the securities being issued in the Public Offering at the Public Offering prices based upon the outstanding principal, accrued interest and other charges, or (z) continue to hold the October 3 Note. Except for a Public Offering and October 3 Note Amortization Payments, in order to prepay the October 3 Note, the Company must provide at least 20 days’ prior written notice to the holder, during which time the holder may convert the October 3 Note in whole or in part at the conversion price. For avoidance of doubt, the October 3 Note Amortization Payments are prepayments and are subject to prepayment penalties equal to 115% of the October 3 Note Amortization Payment. In the event the Company consummates a Public Offering while the October 3 Note is outstanding, then 25% of the net proceeds of such offering will, within two business days of the closing of such Public Offering, be applied to reduce the outstanding obligations pursuant to the October 3 Note.

On the original issue date until the October 3 Note is no longer outstanding, the October 3 Note is convertible, in whole or in part, at any time, and from time to time, into shares of common stock at the option of the investor. The “Conversion Price” in effect on any Conversion Date means, as of any Conversion Date (as defined in the October 3 Note) or other date of determination, the lower of: (i) $2.51 per share and (ii) the price per share paid by investors in the contemplated equity offering of up to $1,000,000. If an Event of Default (as defined in the October 3 Note) has occurred, regardless of whether such Event of Default (as defined in the October 3 Note) has been cured or remains ongoing, the October 3 Note is convertible at the lower of: (i) $2.51 and (ii) 70% of the second lowest closing price of the common stock as reported on the Trading Market (as defined in the October 3 Note) during the 20 consecutive Trading Day (as defined in the October 3 Note) period ending and including the Trading Day (as defined in the October 3 Note) immediately preceding the delivery or deemed delivery of the applicable Notice of Conversion (the “October 3 Note Default Conversion Price”). All such conversion price determinations are to be appropriately adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, reclassification or similar transaction that proportionately decreases or increases the common stock.

This October 3 Note and the related October 3 Warrant include down-round provisions under which the October 3 Note conversion price and October 3 Warrant exercise price were reduced on a full-ratchet basis to $0.006 due to the adjusted conversion price of certain other convertible notes issued by the Company. See Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements for additional details.

In February 2020, due to the default of the February 2020 October 3 Note Amortization Payment, the October 3 Note was deemed in default. Accordingly, the outstanding principal balance on date of default increased by 30% which amounted to approximately $50,000, default interest accrues at 18%, and the default conversion terms apply as described above. See Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional details.

Fall 2019 notes

On October 14, 2019 and November 7, 2019, we entered into convertible note agreements with an accredited investor. Pursuant to the terms of these convertible note agreements, we issued and sold to an investor convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $500,000 (the “Fall 2019 Notes”) and we received cash proceeds of $500,000. The Fall 2019 Notes bear interest at 10% per annum. The October 14, 2019 convertible promissory note of $300,000 became due and payable on October 14, 2020 and the November 7, 2019 convertible promissory note of $200,000 became due and payable on November 7, 2020. Commencing on the respective seven-month anniversaries of issuance, and continuing each month thereafter through the respective maturity date, payments of principal and interest will be made in accordance with the respective amortization schedule. During the existence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Fall 2019 Notes), interest will accrue at the lesser of (i) the rate of 18% per annum, or (ii) the maximum amount permitted by law. Commencing on the seventh month anniversary of each respective note, monthly payments of interest and monthly principal payments are due and payable, until the respective maturity dates, at which time all outstanding principal, accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts due and payable under such Fall 2019 Note will be immediately due and payable.

Each Fall 2019 Note is convertible, in whole or in part, at any time, and from time to time, into shares of common stock at the option of the investor. The “Conversion Price” in effect on any Conversion Date means, as of any date of determination, the lower of: (i) $2.50 per share and (ii) the twenty day per share closing trading price of the Company’s common stock during the twenty trading days that close with the last previous trading day ended three days prior to the date of exercise. The Fall 2019 Notes do not contain anti-dilutive provisions. In May 2020, due to the default of a May 2020 Amortization Payment, the October 14, 2019 convertible note was deemed in default. Accordingly, default interest accrues at 18% and the October 14, 2019 convertible note became due on the date of default.

Secured Merchant Loans

From November 22, 2019 to December 31, 2019, we entered into several secured merchant loans in the aggregate amount of $2,283,540. We received net proceeds of $1,355,986, net of original issue discounts and origination fees of $927,554. Pursuant to these several secured merchant loans, we were required to pay the noteholders by making daily and/or weekly payments on each business day or week until the loan amounts were paid in full. Each payment was deducted from the Company’s bank account. During the year ended December 31, 2019, we repaid an aggregate of $464,344 of the loans. At December 31, 2019, notes payable related to these secured merchant loans amounted to $1,057,074, which consists of $1,819,196 of principal balance due and is net of unamortized debt discount of $762,122. Subsequent to December 31, 2019, we settled and repaid substantially all of these notes.

Q1/Q2 convertible debt and related warrants

Beginning in January 2020 and continuing through April 1, 2020 we have issued and sold to investors convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $2,068,000 (the “Q1/Q2 2020 Notes”), and warrants to purchase up to 827,200 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Q1/Q2 2020 Warrants”). We received net proceeds of $1,880,000, which is net of 10% original issue discounts of $188,000. The Q1/Q2 2020 Notes initially bore interest at 6% per annum and become due and payable on the date that is the 24-month anniversary of the original issue date of the respective Q1/Q2 2020 Note. During the existence of an Event of Default (as defined in the applicable Q1/Q2 2020 Note), interest accrues at the lesser of (i) the rate of 18% per annum, or (ii) the maximum amount permitted by law. Commencing on the thirteenth month anniversary of each 2020 Note, monthly payments of interest and monthly principal payments, based on a 12 month amortization schedule (each, a “2020 Note Amortization Payment”), will be due and payable, until the Maturity Date (as defined in the applicable 2020 Note), at which time all outstanding principal, accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts due and payable under such 2020 Note will be immediately due and payable. The 2020 Note Amortization Payments will be made in cash unless the investor requests payment in the Company’s common stock in lieu of a cash payment (each, a “2020 Note Stock Payment”). If a holder of a 2020 Note requests a 2020 Note Stock Payment, the number of shares of common stock issued will be based on the amount of the applicable 2020 Note Amortization Payment divided by 80% of the lowest VWAP (as defined in the applicable 2020 Note) during the five Trading Day (as defined in the applicable 2020 Note) period prior to the due date of such 2020 Note Amortization Payment.

The Q1/Q2 2020 Notes may be prepaid, provided that certain Equity Conditions, as defined in the Q1/Q2 2020 Notes, have been met (or any such failure to meet the Equity Conditions has been waived): (i) from each Q1/Q2 2020 Note’s respective original issuance date until and through the day that falls on the third month anniversary of such original issue date (each a “Q1/Q2 2020 Note 3 Month Anniversary”) at an amount equal to 105% of the aggregate of the outstanding principal balance of the Q1/Q2 2020 Note and accrued and unpaid interest, and (ii) after the applicable Q1/Q2 2020 Note 3 Month Anniversary at an amount equal to 115% of the aggregate of the outstanding principal balance of the Q1/Q2 2020 Note and accrued and unpaid interest. In the event that the Company closes a Public Offering, each holder may elect to: (x) have its principal and accrued interest prepaid directly from the proceeds of the Public Offering at the prices set forth above, or (y) exchange its Q1/Q2 2020 Note at the closing of the Public Offering for the securities being issued in the Public Offering at the Public Offering prices based upon the outstanding principal, accrued interest and other charges, or (z) continue to hold its Q1/Q2 2020 Note(s). Except for a Public Offering and Q1/Q2 2020 Note Amortization Payments, in order to prepay a Q1/Q2 2020 Note, the Company must provide at least 30 days’ prior written notice to the holder thereof, during which time the holder may convert its Q1/Q2 2020 Note in whole or in part at the applicable conversion price. The Q1/Q2 2020 Note Amortization Payments are prepayments and are subject to prepayment penalties equal to 115% of the Q1/Q2 2020 Note Amortization Payment. In the event the Company consummates a Public Offering while the Q1/Q2 2020 Notes are outstanding, then 25% of the net proceeds of such offering will, within two business days of the closing of such Public Offering, be applied to reduce the outstanding obligations pursuant to the Q1/Q2 2020 Notes.

After the original issue date of a Q1/Q2 2020 Note until such Q1/Q2 2020 Note is no longer outstanding, such Q1/Q2 2020 Note is convertible, in whole or in part, at any time, and from time to time, into shares of common stock at the option of the holder. The “Conversion Price” in effect on any Conversion Date (as defined in the applicable Q1/Q2 2020 Note) means, as of any date of determination, $0.40 per share, subject to adjustment as provided therein and summarized in this report. If an Event of Default (as defined in the Q1/Q2 2020 Notes) has occurred, regardless of whether it has been cured or remains ongoing, the Q1/Q2 2020 Notes are convertible at the lower of: (i) $0.40 and (ii) 70% of the second lowest closing price of the common stock as reported on the Trading Market (as defined in the applicable Q1/Q2 2020 Note) during the 20 consecutive Trading Day (as defined in the applicable Q1/Q2 2020 Note) period ending and including the Trading Day immediately preceding the delivery or deemed delivery of the applicable notice of conversion. All such Conversion Price determinations are to be appropriately adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, reclassification or similar transaction that proportionately decreases or increases the common stock. The Q1/Q2 2020 Notes contain down-round protection under which the Q1/Q2 2020 Note conversion price was reduced on a full-ratchet basis, to $0.006 due to the adjusted conversion price of certain other convertible notes issued by the Company.

The Q1/Q2 2020 Warrants are exercisable at any time on or after the date of the issuance and entitle the investors to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock for a period of five years from the initial date the 2020 Warrants become exercisable. Under the terms of the Q1/Q2 2020 Warrants, the investors are entitled to exercise the Q1/Q2 2020 Warrants to purchase up to 827,200 shares of the Company’s common stock at an initial exercise price of $0.40, subject to adjustment as detailed in the respective Q1/Q2 2020 Warrants.

Due to the default of August 2019 Amortization Payments due on our August 2019 Notes and other notes, these convertible notes were deemed in default. Accordingly, the outstanding principal balance on date of default increased by 30% which amounted to approximately $620,400, default interest accrues at 18%, and the default conversion terms apply.

During the three months ended September 30, 2020, we issued 291,796,804 shares of our common stock upon the conversion of principal and default interest of $1,887,000 and accrued interest of $3,731.

April 20, 2020 convertible debt

On April 20, 2020, we issued to an investor a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $456,500 (the “April 20 Note”). The April 20 Note contained a 10% original issue discount amounting to $41,500 for a purchase price of $415,000. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the April 20 Note because the investor converted previous notes and accrued interest due to him in the amount of $195,000 into the April 20 Note. In connection with the conversion of notes payable to the April 20 Note, we recorded a loss from debt extinguishment of $220,000. The April 20 Note bore interest at 6% per annum and becomes due and payable on April 20, 2022 (the “April 20 Note Maturity Date”). During the existence of an Event of Default (as defined in the April 20 Note), which includes, amongst other events, any default in the payment of principal and interest payment (including any April 20 Note Amortization Payments) under any note or any other indebtedness, interest accrues at the lesser of (i) the rate of 18% per annum, or (ii) the maximum amount permitted by law. Commencing on the thirteenth month anniversary of the April 20 Note, monthly payments of interest and monthly principal payments, based on a 12 month amortization schedule, will be due and payable (each, an “April 20 Note Amortization Payment”), until the April 20 Note Maturity Date, at which time all outstanding principal, accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts due and payable under the April 20 Note will be immediately due and payable. The April 20 Note Amortization Payments will be made in cash unless the investor requests payment in the Company’s common stock in lieu of a cash payment (each, an “April 20 Note Stock Payment”). If the investor requests an April 20 Note Stock Payment, the number of shares of common stock issued will be based on the amount of the applicable April 20 Note Amortization Payment divided by 80% of the lowest VWAP (as defined in the April 20 Note) during the five Trading Day (as defined in the April 20 Note) period prior to the due date of the April 20 Note Amortization Payment.

Due to the default of August 2019 Note Amortization Payments due on our August 2019 Notes and other notes, the April 20 Note was deemed in default. Accordingly, the outstanding principal balance on date of default increased by 30% which amounted to approximately $136,950, default interest accrues at 18%, and the default conversion terms apply.

During the three months ended September 30, 2020, we issued 38,500,000 shares of our common stock upon the conversion of principal and default interest of $231,000.

Conversions of Convertible Notes, Warrants and Convertible Preferred Stock

The Company’s trading price quoted on the OTC Pink market fell from $3.50 per share on January 8, 2020 to $0.01 on September 30, 2020. This drop, together with anti-dilution protection features contained in the August 2019 Notes and August 2019 Warrants that were triggered upon the issuance of convertible debt beginning in January 2020, caused the conversion prices of most of the Company’s outstanding notes and the exercise price of many of the Company’s outstanding warrants, to fall to $0.006. Beginning in February 2020, note holders began converting the outstanding principal of their notes into substantial quantities of shares of the Company’s common stock. During the period from February 25, 2020 to September 30, 2020, we issued 895,546,406 shares of our common stock in connection with the conversion of convertible notes payable and default interest of $7,060,630, accrued interest of $301,452, and fees of $9,080. The conversion price was based on contractual terms of the related debt. Additionally, the Company issued 155,914,308 shares of its common stock upon the cashless exercise of 157,297,448 warrants. Also, we issued 398,350,000 shares of common stock upon the conversion of 398,350 shares of series D preferred stock. Consequently, the total number of shares of common stock outstanding has increased from 11,832,603 on December 31, 2019, to 1,472,924,335 on September 30, 2020.

These anti-dilution protection features only provide for one-way adjustment, therefore, even if the Company cures any events of default, and the trading price increases, the conversion and exercise prices of the affected notes and warrants will remain a fraction of a penny. As a result, the Company has made commitments to shareholders, convertible note holders and warrant holders to issue, or keep available for issuance, large quantities of additional shares of common stock.

To enable the Company to meet these commitments, the Company’s Board of Directors unanimously adopted a resolution seeking stockholder approval to authorize the Board of Directors to amend the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 500,000,000 shares to 4,000,000,000 shares (the “Authorized Share Increase Amendment”). Stockholder approval for the Authorized Share Increase Amendment was obtained on June 26, 2020 from stockholders that held at least 51% of the voting power of the stock of the Company entitled to vote thereon, as of the record date of June 26, 2020. These consents constituted a sufficient number of votes to approve the Authorized Share Increase Amendment under the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, bylaws and Nevada law. Pursuant to applicable securities laws and Section 78.390 of the Nevada Revised Statutes, the Company prepared and mailed an Information Statement to its stockholders of record on the record date beginning on June 30, 2020. In compliance with Rule 14(c)-2(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Authorized Share Increase Amendment became effective on July 20, 2020 which was at least twenty calendar days after the Information Statement was first sent to stockholders.

On July 24, 2020, we issued 1,000,000 shares of our common stock upon the conversion of 1,000,000 shares of Series B preferred shares.

Paycheck Protection Program Promissory Notes

On April 15, 2020, our subsidiary, Prime EFS, entered into a Paycheck Protection promissory note (the “Prime EFS PPP Loan”) with M&T Bank in the amount of $2,941,212 under the Small Business Administration (the “SBA”) Paycheck Protection Program (the “Paycheck Protection Program”) of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act of 2020 (the “CARES Act”). On April 15, 2020, the Prime EFS PPP Loan was approved and Prime EFS received the loan proceeds on April 22, 2020.

Monthly principal and interest payments, less the amount of any potential forgiveness (discussed below), will commence on November 16, 2020.

On April 2, 2020, our subsidiary, Shypdirect, entered into a Paycheck Protection promissory note (the “Shypdirect PPP Loan” and together with the Prime EFS PPP Loan, the “PPP Loans”) with M&T Bank in the amount of $504,940 under the SBA Paycheck Protection Program of the CARES Act. On April 28, 2020, the Shypdirect PPP Loan was approved and Shypdirect received the Shypdirect PPP Loan proceeds on May 1, 2020. Shypdirect has used and plans to continue to use the proceeds for covered payroll costs, rent and utilities in accordance with the relevant terms and conditions of the CARES Act. The Shypdirect PPP Loan has a two-year term, matures on April 28, 2022, and bears interest at a rate of 1.00% per annum. Monthly principal and interest payments, less the amount of any potential forgiveness (discussed below), will commence on November 28, 2020.

Neither Prime EFS nor Shypdirect provided any collateral or guarantees for these PPP Loans, nor did they pay any facility charge to obtain the PPP Loans. These promissory notes provide for customary events of default, including, among others, those relating to failure to make payment, bankruptcy, breaches of representations and material adverse effects. Prime EFS and Shypdirect may prepay the principal of the PPP Loans at any time without incurring any prepayment charges. These PPP Loans may be forgiven partially or fully if the respective loan proceeds are used for covered payroll costs, rent and utilities, provided that such amounts are incurred during the twenty-four-week period that commenced on the date the proceeds of each loan were received and at least 60% of any forgiven amount has been used for covered payroll costs. Any forgiveness of these PPP Loans will be subject to approval by the SBA and M&T Bank and will require Prime EFS and Shypdirect to apply for such treatment in the future.

Amazon Logistics Delivery Service Partner Agreement and Amazon Relay Carrier Terms of Service

On June 19, 2020, Amazon notified Prime EFS by the Prime EFS Termination Notice that Amazon did not intend to renew the In-Force Agreement when it expired. In the Prime EFS Termination Notice, Amazon stated that the In-Force Agreement would expire on September 30, 2020.

Additionally, on July 17, 2020, Amazon notified Shypdirect that Amazon had elected to terminate the Program Agreement between Amazon and Shypdirect effective as of November 14, 2020 (the “Shypdirect Termination Notice”). However, on August 3, 2020, pursuant to the Aug. 3 Proposal, Amazon offered to withdraw the Shypdirect Termination Notice and extend the term of the Program Agreement to and including May 14, 2021, conditioned on Prime EFS executing, for nominal consideration, a separation agreement with Amazon under which Prime EFS would agree to cooperate in an orderly transition of its Amazon last-mile delivery business to other service providers, release any and all claims it may have against Amazon, and covenant not to sue Amazon. On August 4, 2020, the Company, Prime EFS and Shypdirect accepted the Aug. 3 Proposal.

Approximately 58.4% and 39.0% of the Company’s revenue of $23,503,384 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was attributable to Prime EFS’s last-mile DSP business and Shypdirect’s mid-mile and long-haul business with Amazon. respectively. The termination of the Amazon last-mile business will have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business in the 4th fiscal quarter of 2020 and thereafter. If the Amazon mid-mile and long-haul business is discontinued after May 14, 2021 it would have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business in 2nd fiscal quarter of 2021 and thereafter.

We will continue to: (i) seek to replace its last-mile DSP Amazon business and supplement its mid-mile and long-haul Amazon business with other, non-Amazon, customers; (ii) explore other strategic relationships; and (iii) identify potential acquisition opportunities, while continuing to execute our restructuring plan, commenced in February 2020.

Cash Flows

Going Concern Consideration

Our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, we had a net loss of $35,506,373 and $37,970,095 and net cash used in operations was $2,369,261 and $4,231,915, respectively. Additionally, we had an accumulated deficit, shareholders’ deficit, and a working capital deficit of $114,818,245, $12,272,369 and $12,974,773, respectively, at September 30, 2020. Furthermore, the Company failed to make required payments of principal and interest on certain of its convertible debt instruments and notes payable.

On June 19, 2020, Amazon notified Prime EFS by the Prime EFS Termination Notice that Amazon would not renew its Delivery Service Partner (DSP) Agreement with Prime EFS when the In-Force Agreement expired on September 30, 2020 and such In-Force Agreement, in fact, expired on September 30, 2020. Additionally, on July 17, 2020, pursuant to the Shypdirect Termination Notice, Amazon notified Shypdirect that Amazon had elected to terminate the Program Agreement between Amazon and Shypdirect effective as of November 14, 2020 (See Note 1). However, on August 3, 2020, Amazon offered pursuant to the Aug. 3 Proposal to withdraw the Shypdirect Termination Notice and extend the term of the Program Agreement to and including May 14, 2021, conditioned on Prime EFS executing, for nominal consideration, a separation agreement with Amazon under which Prime EFS would agree to cooperate in an orderly transition of its Amazon last-mile delivery business to other service providers, release any and all claims it may have against Amazon, and covenant not to sue Amazon. In a “Separation Agreement” dated August 23, 2020, by and among Amazon, Prime EFS and the Company, Prime EFS and the Company agreed, for nominal consideration, that the Delivery Service Partner Program Agreement between Amazon and Prime EFS would terminate effective September 30, 2020; that Prime EFS and the Company would cooperate in an orderly transition of the last-mile delivery business from Prime EFS to other service providers; that Prime EFS would return any and all vehicles leased from Element Fleet Corporation by October 7, 2020 in good repair; and that Prime EFS would dismiss the Amazon Arbitration with prejudice. Under the same Separation Agreement, Prime EFS and the Company released any and all claims they had against Amazon and covenanted not to sue Amazon. In a “Settlement and Release Agreement” dated August 21, 2020, by and among Amazon, Shypdirect, Prime EFS and the Company, Amazon withdrew the Shypdirect Termination Notice and extended the term of the Program Agreement to and including May 14, 2021. In the Settlement and Release Agreement, Shypdirect released any and all claims it had against Amazon, arising under the Program Agreement between Amazon and Shypdirect effective as of November 14, 2020, or otherwise.

It is management’s opinion that these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months from the issuance date of this report. In April 2020, the Company’s subsidiaries, Prime EFS and Shypdirect, entered into Paycheck Protection Program promissory notes with M&T Bank in the aggregate amount of $3,446,152. Management cannot provide assurance that the Company will ultimately achieve profitable operations, become cash flow positive, or raise additional debt and/or equity capital.

We will continue to: (i) seek to replace the Company’s last-mile DSP Amazon business and supplement its mid-mile and long-haul Amazon business with other, non-Amazon, customers; (ii) explore other strategic relationships; and (iii) identify potential acquisition opportunities, while continuing to execute our restructuring plan, commenced in February 2020. We are seeking to raise capital through additional debt and/or equity financings to fund our operations in the future. Although we have historically raised capital from sales of common shares and from the issuance of convertible promissory notes and notes payable, there is no assurance that we will be able to continue to do so. If we are unable to replace our Amazon business, to raise additional capital or secure additional lending in the near future, management expects that we will need to curtail our operations. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Contractual Obligations

We have certain fixed contractual obligations and commitments that include future estimated payments. Changes in our business needs, cancellation provisions, changing interest rates, and other factors may result in actual payments differing from the estimates. We cannot provide certainty regarding the timing and amounts of payments.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

Effects of Inflation

We do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our business, revenues, or operating results during the periods presented.

Recently Enacted Accounting Standards

For a description of accounting changes and recent accounting standards, including the expected dates of adoption and estimated effects, if any, on our consolidated financial statements, see “Note 2: Recent Accounting Pronouncements” in the condensed consolidated financial statements filed with this Quarterly Report.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

We are not required to provide quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk because we are a smaller reporting company.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including John Mercadante, Jr, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) as of September 30, 2020. Management recognizes that any disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Our management has assessed the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and, based upon that evaluation, management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2020.

As reported in Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of that date because of material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting. The ineffectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures was due to the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting:

	1)	Lack of a functioning audit committee due to a lack of a majority of independent members and a lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures;

	2)	The Company lacks segregation of duties;

	3)	The Company lacks of segregation of duties and monitoring controls regarding accounting because there are a limited staff of accountants maintaining the books and records;

	4)	Our Chief Executive Officer does not have significant financial experience resulting in the Company’s use of outside consultants to assist in financial and public company expertise;

	5)	The Company does not have adequate controls over pre-closing legal and accounting review of loan transactions or other financings;

	6)	The Company did not have adequate controls over accounting systems that would prohibit unauthorized changes to historical accounting records. Recently, the Company implemented controls to address this situation;

	7)	The Company lacks supervision of outside consultants who may negotiate transactions on behalf of the Company;

	8)	The Company has not yet implemented any internal controls over financial reporting at its recently acquired subsidiary; and

	9)	The Company lacks control over who is granted authorization to bind the Company or its subsidiaries to legal contracts.

We do not believe the material weaknesses described above caused any meaningful or significant misreporting of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2020. However, management believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee and the lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors results in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, which could result in a material misstatement in our consolidated financial statements in future periods.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of our operations in the normal course of business. Other than discussed below, we are not currently a party to any other legal proceeding that we believe would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or operating results.

Disputes Between Prime EFS, ELRAC LLC, and Enterprise Leasing Company of Philadelphia, LLC

BMF Capital v. Prime EFS LLC et al.

As previously reported, in a settlement agreement entered into as of March 6, 2020, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary Prime EFS agreed to pay BMF Capital (“BMF”) $275,000 on or by March 11, 2020, inter alia to discharge a convertible note, to cancel certain warrants on 40,300 shares of TLSS common stock, and to settle certain claims made by BMF Capital under certain merchant cash advance agreements (MCAs). Prime EFS did not pay a portion of the agreed $275,000 settlement amount by March 11, 2020 but the Company has subsequently paid the $275,000 in full. As more than eight months have now passed, and BMF has not again contacted Prime EFS concerning this matter, Prime EFS believes this matter to now be closed.

Bellridge Capital, L.P. and SCS, LLC v. TLSS

It is not possible to evaluate the likelihood of a favorable or unfavorable outcome, nor is it possible to estimate the amount or range of any potential loss in the matter.

SCS, LLC v. Transport and Logistics Systems, Inc.

Shareholder Derivative Action

As previously disclosed, on June 25, 2020, the Company was served with a putative shareholder derivative action filed in the Circuit Court of the 15^th Judicial Circuit in and for Palm Beach County, Florida (the “Court”) captioned SCS, LLC, derivatively on behalf of Transportation and Logistics Systems, Inc. v. John Mercadante, Jr., Douglas Cerny, Sebastian Giordano, Ascentaur LLC and Transportation and Logistics Systems, Inc. The action has been assigned Case No. 2020-CA-006581.

It is not possible to evaluate the likelihood of a favorable or unfavorable outcome, nor is it possible to estimate the amount or range of any potential loss in the matter.

Frank Mazzola v. Prime EFS, et al.

All defendants believe the complaint lacks merit and intend to mount a vigorous defense to the action.

It is not possible to evaluate the likelihood of a favorable or unfavorable outcome, nor is it possible to estimate the amount or range of any potential loss in the matter.

Rosemary Mazzola v. TLSS and Douglas Cerny

Both defendants believe the complaint in this matter lacks merit and intend to mount a vigorous defense to the action.

As of September 30, 2020, this $94,000 liability is included in due to related parties on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Prime EFS v. Amazon Logistics, Inc.

Amazon did not state a reason for the Shypdirect Termination Notice. Under the Program Agreement, Amazon can terminate the agreement without a reason and solely for convenience on 120 days’ notice.

Default by Prime EFS on June 4, 2020 Settlement with Creditors

Pursuant to the Payment Plan, Prime EFS was obligated to pay $75,000.00 to the Creditors on or before June 5, 2020 and $75,000.00 to the Creditors on or before June 12, 2020.

Prime EFS made the $75,000 payments due on each of June 5, 2020 and June 12, 2020.

To date, Prime EFS has not responded to the Notice of Default and has no present plan or intention to respond.

Dispute between Patrick Nicholson and Prime EFS

In the demand, the attorneys for Mr. Nicholson allege the total balance owed, including interest, is $332,702.84 and that interest is continuing to accrue on each promissory note.

In the demand, the attorneys for Mr. Nicholson also contend that the Company is jointly and severally liable with Prime EFS for this balance.

Further, in the opinion of counsel, formed after reasonable inquiry, neither promissory note is enforceable against any person or entity other than Prime EFS. If, as threatened, Mr. Nicholson files suit for nonpayment under either or both promissory notes, it is anticipated that the defendant(s) will mount a vigorous defense to the action.

Jose R. Mercedes-Mejia v. Shypdirect LLC, Prime EFS LLC et al.

On August 4, 2020, an action was filed against Shypdirect, Prime EFS and others in the Superior Court of New Jersey for Bergen County captioned Jose R. Mercedes-Mejia v. Shypdirect LLC, Prime EFS LLC et al. The case was assigned docket number BER-L-004534-20. In this action, the plaintiff seeks reimbursement of his medical expenses and damages for personal injuries following an accident with a box truck leased by Prime EFS and being driven by a Prime EFS employee, in which the plaintiff’s ankle was injured. Plaintiff has thus far transmitted medical bills exceeding $789,000. Prime EFS and Shypdirect have demanded their vehicle liability carrier assume the defense of this action. To date, the carrier has not done so, allegedly inter alia because the box truck was not on the list of insured vehicles at the time of the accident.

On November 9, 2020, Prime EFS and Shypdirect filed their answer to the complaint in this action and also filed a third-party action against the insurance company in an effort to obtain defense and indemnity for this action. We intend to vigorously defend against this claim and to pursue the coverage action. However, we cannot evaluate the likelihood of an adverse outcome or estimate our liability, if any, in connection with this claim.

Valesky v. Prime EFS and Frank Mazzola

Ynes Accilien v. Prime EFS

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Amazon has given Notice of Termination of Prime EFS’s Delivery Service Partner Agreement

On June 19, 2020, Amazon notified Prime EFS in writing by the Prime EFS Termination Notice that Amazon did not intend to renew the In-Force Agreement when it expired. In the Prime EFS Termination Notice, Amazon stated that the In-Force Agreement would expire on September 30, 2020.

Additionally, on July 17, 2020, Amazon notified Shypdirect by the Shypdirect Termination Notice that Amazon had elected to terminate the Program Agreement between Amazon and Shypdirect effective as of November 14, 2020. However, on August 3, 2020, pursuant to the Aug. 3 Proposal, Amazon offered to withdraw the Shypdirect Termination Notice and extend the term of the Program Agreement to and including May 14, 2021, conditioned on Prime EFS executing, for nominal consideration, a separation agreement with Amazon under which Prime EFS would agree to cooperate in an orderly transition of its Amazon last-mile delivery business to other service providers, release any and all claims it may have against Amazon, and covenant not to sue Amazon. On August 4, 2020, the Company, Prime EFS and Shypdirect accepted the Aug. 3 Proposal.

The Company will continue to: (i) seek to replace the Company’s last-mile DSP Amazon business and supplement its mid-mile and long-haul Amazon business with other, non-Amazon, customers; (ii) explore other strategic relationships; and (iii) identify potential acquisition opportunities, while continuing to execute our restructuring plan, commenced in February 2020. If the Shypdirect mid-mile and long-haul business with Amazon is terminated and not replaced, the Company would have to curtail most or all operations.

We have incurred indebtedness under the CARES Act which will be subject to review, may not be forgivable in whole or in part, and may eventually have to be repaid, potentially with interest, fines, and/or other penalties.

Our subsidiaries Shypdirect and Prime EFS applied to M&T Bank for funds under the SBA Paycheck Protection Program of the CARES Act on April 2, 2020 and April 15, 2020, respectively, in the amounts of $504,940 and $2,941,212, respectively. The application for these funds required Prime EFS and Shypdirect to, in good faith, certify that the current economic uncertainty made the loan requests necessary to support their ongoing operations. This certification further required Prime EFS and Shypdirect to take into account their current business activity and their ability to access other sources of liquidity sufficient to support ongoing operations in a manner that is not significantly detrimental to the business. The receipt of these funds, and the forgiveness of the loan attendant to these funds, is dependent on Prime EFS and Shypdirect having initially qualified for the loan and qualifying for the forgiveness of such loan based on our future adherence to the forgiveness criteria.

Prime EFS received the loan proceeds on April 22, 2020 and Shypdirect received the loan proceeds on May 1, 2020. Under the terms of the CARES Act and the corresponding promissory note, the use of the proceeds of each loan is restricted to payroll costs (as defined in the CARES Act), covered rent, covered utility payments and certain other expenditures that, while permitted, would not result in forgiveness of a corresponding portion of the loan. Following recent amendments to the Paycheck Protection Program, after an eight- or twenty-four-week period starting with the disbursement of the respective loan proceeds, Prime EFS and Shypdirect may apply for forgiveness of some or all of their loans, with the amount which may be forgiven equal to the sum of eligible payroll costs, covered rent, and covered utility payments, in each case incurred during the eight- or twenty-four-week period following the date of first disbursement. Certain reductions in the Prime EFS’ or Shypdirect’s payroll costs or full-time equivalent employees (when compared against the applicable measurement period) may reduce the amount of their loan eligible for forgiveness.

The U.S. Department of the Treasury (“Treasury”) and the SBA have announced that they will review all Paycheck Protection Program loans that equal or exceed $2.0 million. Guidance from Treasury and SBA has been slow to develop and occasionally unclear. At the same time, the Paycheck Protection Program has been amended twice with the latest series of amendments significantly altering the timeline associated with the Paycheck Protection Program spending and loan forgiveness. Moreover, the lack of clarity regarding loan eligibility under the Paycheck Protection Program has resulted in significant media coverage and controversy with respect to public companies applying for and receiving loans, including an article about the Company and its subsidiaries. While the Company and its subsidiaries believe that they acted in good faith and have complied with all requirements of the Paycheck Protection Program, if Treasury or SBA determined that Prime EFS’ and/or Shypdirect’s loan applications were not made in good faith or that the Company, Prime EFS and/or Shypdirect did not otherwise meet the eligibility requirements of the Paycheck Protection Program, Prime EFS and/or Shypdirect may not receive forgiveness of the loan (in whole or in part) and Prime EFS and/or Shypdirect could be subject to penalties, including significant civil, criminal and administrative penalties, and could be required to return the loans or a portion thereof. Further, there is no guarantee that Prime EFS and/or Shypdirect will receive forgiveness for any amount, and forgiveness will be subject to Prime EFS’ and Shypdirect’s submissions to their lender of information and documentation as required by SBA and the lender.

A failure to obtain forgiveness of the Paycheck Protection Program loans may adversely impact loan covenants under our senior debt securities. In the event that our Paycheck Protection Program loan was not forgiven in whole or in part, we may need to seek an amendment to our senior debt securities, a waiver from the holders of our senior debt securities, utilize cash to repay the Paycheck Protection Program debt and/or refinance or restructure our outstanding debt. There can be no assurance that we could obtain future amendments or waivers of our senior debt securities, or refinance or restructure our debt, in each case on commercially reasonably terms or at all. Our failure to maintain compliance with the covenants under our senior debt securities could result in an event of default, subject to applicable notice and cure provisions. Upon the occurrence of an event of default under our senior debt securities, holders of our senior debt securities could elect to declare all amounts outstanding thereunder to be immediately due and payable. If we were unable to repay all outstanding amounts in full, our lenders could exercise various remedies including instituting foreclosure proceedings against our assets pledged to them as collateral to secure that debt. In addition, our receipt of the PPP Loans may result in adverse publicity and damage to our reputation, and a review or audit by the SBA or other government entity or claims under the False Claims Act could consume significant financial and management resources.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

During the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company issued 477,682,407 shares of its common stock in connection with the conversion of convertible notes payable and default interest of $4,215,651, accrued interest of $82,852, and fees of $900. The conversion price was based on contractual terms of the related debt.

Pursuant to the Exchange Agreements, the Investors exchanged August 2019 Notes with an aggregate remaining principal amount outstanding of $500,184, accrued interest payable of $85,827, and Warrants to purchase 423,159,293 shares of Common Stock for 522,726 shares of Series D (the “Exchange”). In connection with the issuance of the Series D shares, the Company recorded a loss on debt extinguishment of $239,678, which is associated with the fair market value of the excess shares issued upon conversion of the principal balances and accrued interest converted at the conversion price.

On October 8, 2020, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with the Selling Stockholders pursuant to which the Selling Stockholders agreed to purchase, severally and not jointly, an aggregate of (i) 47,977 shares of Series E Stock and (ii) the Warrants to purchase 23,988,500 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, which are equal to 50% of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series E Stock if the Series E Stock were converted on October 8, 2020. The securities issued in this transaction were issued pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

Subsequent to September 30, 2020, we issued 32,269,000 shares of our common stock in connection with the conversion of 32,269 shares of Series D. The conversion ratio was 1,000 shares of common stock for each share of Series D based on the Series D COD.

In October 2020, we issued 53,255,583 shares of our common stock in connection with the conversion of a convertible note payable and default interest of $293,150 and accrued interest of $26,384. The conversion price was based on contractual terms of the related debt.

In October and November 2020, we issued 5,939,432 shares of our common stock in connection with the conversion of accrued interest of $36,317. The conversion price was based on contractual terms of the related debt.

The above securities were issued in reliance upon the exemptions provided by Sections 3(a)(9) and 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
