We currently have no external sources of liquidity, such as arrangements with credit institutions or off-balance sheet arrangements that will have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition or immediate access to capital. We are dependent on our product sales to fund our operations and may require the sale of additional common stock to maintain operations. Our officers and directors have made no written commitments with respect to providing a source of liquidity in the form of cash advances, loans, and/or financial guarantees. If we are unable to raise the funds required to fund our operations, we will seek alternative financing through other means, such as borrowings from institutions or private individuals. There can be no assurance that we will be able to raise the capital we need for our operations from the sale of our securities. We have not located any sources for these funds and may not be able to do so in the future. We expect that we will seek additional financing in the future. However, we may not be able to obtain additional capital or generate sufficient revenues to fund our operations. If we are unsuccessful at raising sufficient funds, for whatever reason, to fund our operations, we may be forced to cease operations. If we fail to raise funds, we expect that we will be required to seek protection from creditors under applicable bankruptcy laws. Convertible Debentures

As ofDecember 31, 2021 ,$666,667 principal plus$0 interest were due on the BHP Note. -29- Notes in General The Convertible Notes are convertible into shares of common stock of the Company based upon a discount to the market price. The conversion terms of these Convertible Notes are based upon a discount to the then-prevailing average of the lowest trading bid prices (as described above for each separate note) and, as a result, the lower the stock price at the time the holders convert the Convertible Notes, the more shares of our common stock the holders will receive. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of these Convertible Notes is indeterminate. If the trading price of our common stock is lower when the conversion price of these Convertible Notes is determined, we would be required to issue a higher number of shares of our common stock, which could cause substantial dilution to our stockholders. In addition, if the holders opt to convert these Convertible Notes into shares of our common stock and sell those shares it could result in an imbalance of supply and demand for our common stock and resulting in lower trading prices for our common stock as reported by the OTCQB. The further our stock price declines, the further the adjustment of the conversion price will fall and the greater the number of shares we will have to issue upon conversion. In addition, the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Note is potentially limitless. While the overall ownership of each individual Holder at any one moment may be limited to 9.99% of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock, each holder may be free to sell any shares into the market that have previously been issued to them, thereby enabling them to convert the remaining portion of these Convertible Notes.
