Dividend Policy
We have not paid any dividends on our common stock and our board of directors presently intends to continue a policy of retaining earnings, if any, for use in our operations. The declaration and payment of dividends in the future, of which there can be no assurance, will be determined by the board of directors in light of conditions then existing, including earnings, financial condition, capital requirements and other factors. The Nevada Revised Statutes prohibit us from declaring dividends where, if after giving effect to the distribution of the dividend:
· We would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or
· Our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the rights of stockholders who have preferential rights superior to those receiving the distribution.
Except as set forth above, there are no restrictions that currently materially limit our ability to pay dividends or which we reasonably believe are likely to limit materially the future payment of dividends on common stock.
Our Board of Directors has the right to authorize the issuance of preferred stock, without further stockholder approval, the holders of which may have preferences over the holders of the common stock as to payment of dividends.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations (“MD&A”) should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the accompanying notes to the financial statements included in this Form 10-K.
The MD&A is based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions .
Background
We were formed as a wholly-owned subsidiary of New Energy Technologies, Inc. New Energy spun off its issued and outstanding shares to New Energy’s shareholders on December 18, 2007. We were incorporated under the name MultiChannel Technologies Corporation on February 28, 2005 in the State of Nevada, and changed to our existing name on April 4, 2005.
We are not currently engaged in any business operations. We are, however, in the process of attempting to identify, locate, and if warranted, acquire new commercial opportunities.
Results of Operations
Years Ended August 31, 2017 and August 31, 2016
The director and officer fees and professional fees remained at $0, in the year ended August 31, 2017, when compared with the same period in 2016. This was due to a lack of business operations since 2015. General and Administrative expenses were $1,431 in the year ended August 31, 2017 and $1,558, in the year ended August 31, 2016
Interest expense of $6,999 and $6,267 for the years ended August 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, is related to the note payable that the Company issued on January 9, 2014, in the amount of $70,000, to a shareholder of the Company. The note payable bears interest at an annual rate of 7%, which then increased to 10% after it was in default. Principal and accrued interest on the note payable were due on January 9, 2016, with a default annual rate of 10% interest after that date. The outstanding balance of principal and accrued interest may be prepaid without penalty. As of August 31, 2017, there is cumulative interest due of $21,307.
Net cash used in operating activities was $180 for the year ended August 31, 2017, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $838 for the prior year ended August 31, 2016. Based on our current level of expenditures, additional funding is required to cover our operations for at least the next twelve months. The company is in the process of attempting to identify, locate, and if warranted, acquire new commercial opportunities.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of August 31, 2017, we had an accumulated deficit of $651,158. At August 31, 2017, we had cash and cash equivalents of $4,832 compared to $5,012 at August 31, 2016. In January 2014, we received funding by issuing a $70,000 note payable, which is still outstanding at August 31, 2017. The note payable was due on January 9, 2016 and has not been repaid as of this filing and is thus in default.
Other Contractual Obligations
As of the years ended August 31, 2017 and 2016, we do not have any contractual obligations other than the $70,000 note payable and related accrued interest. The note payable was due on January 9, 2016 and has not been repaid as of this filing and is thus in default.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
We review new accounting standards as issued. Although some of these accounting standards issued or effective after the end of our previous fiscal year may be applicable to the Company, we have not identified any standards that we believe merit further discussion. We do not expect the adoption of any recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
We adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-10, Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements during the year ended August 31, 2014, thereby no longer presenting or disclosing any information required by Topic 915.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Microchannel Technologies Corporation
I have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Microchannel Technologies Corporation (the “Company”) as of August 31, 2017 and 2016, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended August 31, 2017. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audits.
I conducted my audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that I plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor was I engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. My audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, I express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. I believe that my audits provide a reasonable basis for my opinion.
In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Microchannel Technologies Corporation as of August 31, 2017 and 2016, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended August 31, 2017 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company’s continuing net losses and negative operating cash flows raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

MICROCHANNEL TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
August 31, 2017
Note 1. Organization and Description of Business
MicroChannel Technologies Corporation (the “Company”) was formed as a wholly-owned subsidiary of New Energy Technologies, Inc. (“New Energy”). New Energy spun off its issued and outstanding shares to New Energy’s shareholders on December 18, 2007. The Company was incorporated under the name MultiChannel Technologies Corporation on February 28, 2005 in the State of Nevada, and changed to its existing name on April 4, 2005.
The Company is not currently engaged in any business operations. It is, however, in the process of attempting to identify, locate, and if warranted, acquire new commercial opportunities.
Note 2. Going Concern Uncertainties
The Company has not generated any revenues, has an accumulated deficit of $651,158 as of August 31, 2017, and does not have positive cash flows from operating activities. The Company expects to incur additional losses as it continues to identify and develop new commercial opportunities. The Company will be subject to the risks, uncertainties, and difficulties frequently encountered by early-stage companies. The Company may not be able to successfully address any or all of these risks and uncertainties. Failure to adequately do so could cause the Company’s business, results of operations, and financial condition to suffer. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the issuance date of these financial statements.
The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is an issue due to its net losses and negative cash flows from operations, and its need for additional financing to fund future operations. Management plans to identify commercial opportunities and to obtain necessary funding from outside sources. There can be no assurance that such funds, if available, can be obtained on terms reasonable to the Company. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Based on the Company’s current level of expenditures, management believes that cash on hand is adequate to fund operations for at least the next twelve months.
Note 3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates. Actual results and outcomes may differ materially from the estimates as additional information becomes known
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents includes highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. On occasion, the Company has amounts deposited with financial institutions in excess of federally insured limits.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents and accounts payable approximate their fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments and their liquidity. Management is of the opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.
Income Taxes
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the estimated future tax effects of net operating loss and credit carryforwards and temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their respective financial reporting amounts measured at the current enacted tax rates. The Company records an estimated valuation allowance on its deferred income tax assets if it is not more likely than not that these deferred income tax assets will be realized.
The Company recognizes a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. As of August 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company has not recorded any unrecognized tax benefits. See Note 6. Income Taxes.
Segment Reporting
The Company’s business currently operates in one segment.
Net Loss per Share
The computation of basic net loss per common share is based on the weighted average number of shares that were outstanding during the year. The computation of diluted net loss per common share is based on the weighted average number of shares used in the basic net loss per share calculation plus the number of common shares that would be issued assuming the exercise of all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding using the treasury stock method. See Note 4. Net Loss Per Share.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The Company reviews new accounting standards as issued. Although some of these accounting standards issued or effective after the end of the Company’s previous fiscal year may be applicable to the Company, it has not identified any standards that it believes merit further discussion. The Company does not expect the adoption of any recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Note 4. Net Loss Per Share
During the years ended August 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company recorded a net loss. The Company does not have any potentially dilutive securities outstanding. Therefore, basic and diluted net loss per share is the same for those periods.
Note 5. Note Payable to Shareholder
On January 9, 2014, the Company issued a $70,000 note payable to a shareholder of the Company. The note payable bears interest at an annual rate of 7%. Principal and accrued interest on the note payable were due on January 9, 2016, with a default annual rate of 10% interest after that date. The outstanding balance of principal and accrued interest may be prepaid without penalty. During the years ended August 31, 2017 and August 31, 2016, the Company recorded an interest expense of $6,999 and $6,267, respectively, related to the note payable. Accrued interest at August 31, 2017 related to the note payable was $21,307. At August 31, 2017, the original principal balance of $70,000 on the note payable remained outstanding. The note payable was note repaid on January 9, 2016 and is thus in default as of the date of this filing.
Note 6. Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets at August 31, 2017 and 2016 are as follows:
The net increase in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets was $2,867 and $2,660 for the years ended August 31, 2017 and 2016. The Company evaluates its valuation allowance on an annual basis based on projected future operations. When circumstances change and this causes a change in management’s judgment about the realizability of deferred tax assets, the impact of the change on the valuation allowance is reflected in current operations.
For federal income tax purposes, the Company has net U.S. operating loss carry forwards at August 31, 2017 available to offset future federal taxable income, if any, of $512,224, which will fully expire by the fiscal year ended August 31, 2035. Accordingly, there is no current tax expense for the years ended August 31, 2017 and 2016. In addition, the Company has research and development tax credit carry forwards of $1,963 at August 31, 2017, which are available to offset federal income taxes and fully expire by August 31, 2028.
The utilization of the tax net operating loss carry forwards may be limited due to ownership changes that have occurred as a result of sales of common stock.
The effects of state income taxes were insignificant for the years ended August 31, 2017 and 2016.
The following is a reconciliation between expected income tax benefit and actual, using the applicable statutory income tax rate of 34% for the years ended August 31, 2017 and 2016:
The fiscal years 2012 through 2017 remain open to examination by federal authorities and other jurisdictions in which the Company operates.
On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act was enacted. This law substantially amended the Internal Revenue Code, including reducing the U.S. corporate tax rates. Upon enactment, the Company’s deferred tax asset and related valuation allowance decreased by $66,970 to $110,147. As the deferred tax asset is fully allowed for, this change in rates had no impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 9. A - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
MANAGEMENT'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
For purposes of this Item 9A, the term disclosure controls and procedures means controls and other procedures of the Company (i) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq. and hereinafter the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), and (ii) include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our disclosure controls and procedures do not comply with the requirements in (i) and (ii) above.
Our Chief Executive Officer, Garry McHenry, has reviewed the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by the report August 31, 2017 and has concluded that (i) the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are not effective to ensure that material information relating to the Company is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Commission, and (ii) the Company’s controls and procedures have not been designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
The material weakness identified relates to the lack of proper segregation of duties. The Company believes that the lack of proper segregation of duties is due to the Company’s limited resources.
REPORT OF MANAGEMENT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. Internal control over financial reporting is a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Internal control over financial reporting includes maintaining records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions; providing reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of our financial statements; providing reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures of Company assets are made in accordance with management authorization; and providing reasonable assurance that unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of Company assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements would be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Because of its inherent limitations, our internal control over financial reporting does not provide assurance that a misstatement of our financial statements would be prevented or detected.
As of August 31, 2017, management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and found it to be not effective subsequent to filing our Annual Report on Form 10-K on February 20, 2018 for the year ended August 31, 2017 with the Commission. Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Management has concluded that the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting are not effective because as noted in this Annual Report, we have limited resources available. As we obtain additional funding and employ additional personnel, we will implement programs recommended by the Treadway Commission to ensure the proper segregation of duties and reporting channels. Our independent public accountant, Boyle CPA, LLC, has not conducted an audit of our controls and procedures regarding internal control over financial reporting. Consequently, Boyle CPA, LLC expresses no opinion with regards to the effectiveness or implementation of our controls and procedures with regards to internal control over financial reporting.
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with our evaluation of these controls as of the end of our last (fourth) fiscal quarter as covered by this report on August 31, 2017 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
INHERENT LIMITATIONS ON EFFECTIVENESS OF CONTROLS
The Company's management does not expect that its disclosure controls or its internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system's objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

CODE OF ETHICS

A copy of our Code of Ethics may be obtained at no charge by sending a written request to our Chief Executive Officer, Garry McHenry . 1919 NW 19th Street, Suite 302 , Fort Lauderdale, FL 33311.
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight
We have no fixed policy on whether the roles of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer should be separate or combined, with this decision being made based on our best interests considering the circumstances at the time. Currently, these roles are combined with Mr. Garry McHenry serving as both the Chairman of the Board and the Chief Executive Officer. We believe that combining these positions provides an effective leadership structure for our company, given the size of our Board. As Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Henry is involved in our day-to-day operations and thus is in a position to elevate important business issues for consideration by the Board. The Board also believes that the combined role of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board promotes effective execution of strategic goals and facilitates information flow between management and the Board. Nevertheless, the Board intends to carefully evaluate from time to time whether our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman positions should be combined based on what the Board believes is best for us and our stockholders.
Management is responsible for the day-to-day management of risks the company faces, while the board, as a whole and through its committees, is responsible for the oversight of risk management. In its risk oversight role, the Board of Directors monitors whether the risk management processes that management has designed and implemented are effective both as designed and as executed.
Board of Directors Meetings, Committees of the Board of Directors, and Annual Meeting Attendance
During the fiscal years ended August 31, 2017 and 2016, there were no meetings of the Board of Directors. We do not maintain a policy regarding director attendance at annual meetings and we did not have an annual meeting during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2017.
We do not currently have any standing committees of the Board of Directors. The full Board is responsible for performing the functions of: (i) the Audit Committee, (ii) the Compensation Committee and (iii) the Nominating Committee.
Audit Committee
The Board does not currently have a standing Audit Committee. The full Board performs the principal functions of the Audit Committee. The full Board monitors our financial reporting process and internal control system and reviews and appraises the audit efforts of our independent accountants.
Compensation Committee
The Board does not currently have a standing Compensation Committee. The full Board establishes our overall compensation policies and reviews recommendations submitted by our management.
Nominating Committee
The Board does not currently have a standing Nominating Committee. We do not maintain a policy for considering nominees. Our Bylaws provides that the number of Directors shall be fixed from time to time by the Board, but in no event shall be less than the minimum required by law. The Board shall be large enough to maintain our required expertise but not too large to function efficiently. Director nominees are recommended, reviewed and approved by the entire Board. The Board believes that this process is appropriate due to the relatively small number of directors on the Board and the opportunity to benefit from a variety of opinions and perspectives in determining director nominees by involving the full Board.
While the Board is solely responsible for the selection and nomination of directors, the Board may consider nominees recommended by stockholders as it deems appropriate. The Board evaluates each potential nominee in the same manner regardless of the source of the potential nominee’s recommendation. Although we do not have a policy regarding diversity, the Board does take into consideration the value of diversity among Board members in background, experience, education and perspective in considering potential nominees for recommendation to the Board for selection. Stockholders who wish to recommend a nominee should send nominations to our Chief Executive Officer, Garry McHenry, 1919 NW 19th Street, Suite 302 , Fort Lauderdale, FL 33311, that include all information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for the election of directors. The recommendation must be accompanied by a written consent of the individual to stand for election if nominated by the Board and to serve if elected.
Compensation Consultants
We have not historically relied upon the advice of compensation consultants in determining Named Executive Officer compensation. Instead, the full Board reviews compensation levels and makes adjustments based on their personal knowledge of competition in the market place, publicly available information and informal surveys of human resource professionals.
Stockholder Communications
Stockholders who wish to communicate with the Board of Directors may do so by addressing their correspondence to the Board of Directors at MicroChannel Technologies Corporation, Attention: Garry McHenry, 1919 NW 19th Street, Suite 302 , Fort Lauderdale, FL 33311. The Board of Director shall review and respond to all correspondence received, as appropriate.

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Summary Compensation
The following table and descriptive materials set forth information concerning compensation earned for services rendered to us by: the Chief Executive Officer (the “CEO”); the Chief Financial Officer (the “CFO”); and the two other most highly-compensated executive officers other than the CEO and CFO who were serving as executive officers during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2017 (the “Named Executive Officers”).
SUMMARY COMPENSATION TABLE
The following table summarizes the compensation earned by the Named Executive Officers during the fiscal years ended August 31, 2017 and 2016:
OUTSTANDING EQUITY AWARDS AT FISCAL-YEAR END
We do not have an employee stock option plan or other benefit plans. Therefore, at August 31, 2017, there were no equity awards outstanding for the Named Executive Officers.
COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS
We do not pay director compensation to directors who are also our employees. Our Board of Directors determines the non-employee directors’ compensation for serving on the Board and its committees. In establishing director compensation, the Board is guided by the following goals:
· Compensation should consist of a combination of cash and equity awards that are designed to fairly pay the directors for work required for a company of MicroChannel Technologies Corporation’s size and scope;
· Compensation should align the directors’ interests with the long-term interests of stockholders; and
· Compensation should assist with attracting and retaining qualified directors.
In the years ended August 31, 2017 and 2016, we paid $0 per month, respectively to non-employee directors for their services as directors. We also reimburse directors for any actual expenses incurred to attend meetings of the Board.
In the years ended August 31, 2017 and 2016, we paid $0, respectively to Mr. Sidhu as compensation for services rendered as a non-employee director.

ITEM 13.
ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
We do not have a formal written policy for the review and approval of transactions with related parties. However, our Code of Ethics and Corporate Governance Principles require actual or potential conflict of interest to be reported to the Chairman of the Board. Our employees are expected to disclose personal interests that may conflict with ours and they may not engage in personal activities that conflict with their responsibilities and obligations to us. Periodically, we inquire as to whether or not any of our Directors have entered into any transactions, arrangements or relationships that constitute related party transactions. If any actual or potential conflict of interest is reported, our entire Board of Directors and outside legal counsel review the transaction and relationship disclosed and the Board makes a formal determination regarding each Director's independence. If the transaction is deemed to present a conflict of interest, the Board of Directors will determine the appropriate action to be taken.
Transactions with Related Persons
Since the beginning of the fiscal years ended August 31, 2017 and 2016, there have been no transactions in which we were or are a participant in which the amount involved exceeded $120,000 and in which any related person (as that term is defined for purposes of Section 404 (a) of Regulation S-K) had or will have a direct or indirect material interest and there are currently no such proposed transactions.
Review, Approval or Ratification of Transactions with Related Persons
Our policy with regard to transactions with related persons is that all material transactions are to be reviewed by the entire Board of Directors for any possible conflicts of interest. In the event of a potential conflict of interest, the Board will generally evaluate the transaction in terms of the following standards: (i) the benefits to us; (ii) the impact on a director’s independence in the event the related person is a director, an immediate family member of a director or an entity in which a director is a partner, shareholder or executive officer; (iii) the availability of other sources for comparable products or services; (iv) the terms and conditions of the transaction; and (v) the terms available to unrelated parties or the employees generally. The Board will then document its findings and conclusion in written minutes.
Independent Director
As of the date of this filing, Our Board of Directors is currently comprised of a sole director, namely Garry Henry, who is not an independent director; as such term is defined under the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market.
